    I-140 Redo ?

    No Title EAD & AP petitions are approved on a routine basis, as long as there is an underlying I-485 that is pending. The name of your employer does not come into play here, nor does the fact that the employer might have changed thie name or merged or had been acquired. So, just the fact...

    180 day rule - retroactive?

    No Title metoo & Aaryan Manju, Thanks for your responses. Like you mentioned, a healthy discussion on the topic is always good, and I also think the that 180 day rule will be retrocative, as anything else just does not make sense & does not agree with the spirit of the law. And metoo...

    180 day rule - retroactive?

    No Title I am not sure if I can explain the whole thing in detail citing examples - as you can guess, I am only another normal GC seeker forced to learn & understand the workings of these government bodies due to circumstances (I am STILL waiting for my GC after an I-140 redo, 2 RFEs and my...

    180 day rule - retroactive?

    No Title I agree with you. It is HIGHLY UNLIKELY that the DOJ/INS will come out with regulations that make the rule applicable only to applications files after Oct 17, 2000. Even if they do so, once they publish interim regulations (as they need to before the issue final regulations), I am sure...

    Called IIO 3/23 RD: 10/04/99, ND: 10/14/99

    No Title Well, good luck to you. But please remember at the back of your mind that the time-frame that IIOs give out have actually no meaning/significance and does not mean anything. They have been telling me that my application is with an officer and it will take approximately another 2 weeks...

    My EB3 date will be current on April 1, 2001. Should the INS receive my I-485 application

    No Title They should not receive it before Apr 01. Better to mail it only in April. After for a wait that is now roughly an year & a half, another day or 2 may not make a big difference. Better don\'t take a chance of them telling you that you mailed ahead of time....

    division change question

    No Title You should be fine, as long as you are working for the same employer (employer\'s name on I-140 approval & at the time of I-485 application & at the time of I-485 ajudication/approval should be the same). It really does not matter where you are working, even though your point...

    Guys waiting after rfe read inside

    No Title You may be right but not totally, since my response to the 2nd RFE was received by VSC on Jan 31, 2001 (as per AVM), but no approval yet....

    365-540 days or 5400 days

    No Title It is not eye-wash in general, even though I personally am feeling the pinch too, since it have been almost 600 days for me, and my PD has always been current since I applied. However most of the cases where PD is current are being approved within 540 days (my case is one of the fewer...

    365-540 days or 5400 days

    No Title There were no approvals for EB-3 India for PD after Feb 1998 because the PD is NOT current. Only applications with current PDs will be approved....

    Mesg to Govinda Vinod and Jelly Bean

    No Title Hi Jelly Bean & tailgate, even though the Senator\'s office approach did not work in my case, I think that is the only way we can get something moved @ VSC, since calling up IIOs has an even lesser probability of succeeding. My experience has been that unless you can get through to...

    Mesg to Govinda Vinod and Jelly Bean

    No Title Hello tailgate, Well, I have been sick of VSC for the past 1 year, but this was different. Anyways, I have talked to a Congressman\'s office yesterday and am waiting to hear abck from them - maybe something will happen. If not, I am going to send a letter to the Senator explaining the...

    Mesg to Govinda Vinod and Jelly Bean

    No Title Sorry, I did not reply earlier, I was sick and kind of missed this one. But, NO, I still don\'t have my approval yet, and what\'s more, I had asked a Senator\'s office to find out why my application was being delayed. The lady there called me back after 5 days and told me that that my...

    RFE/I140 amendment - to - adjudication- timeframe/experience???

    No Title I had to go through the same experience. I started calling them up every week and explained each time that the I-140 was in fact a redo petiotion and not a fresh one and that it should be tied/linked to my I-485 petition. I was successful after about 6 calls.....

    better not to be approved now !!!!!!!!!

    No Title Like mira mentioned, the 180 days will be over only in mid april and NOT mid march - actually, on April 16th. I feel that anybody can switch employers after Apr 16th, whether or not their GCs were approved or not, because there is no logic to saying that GC holders have to wait for a...
