    Anngud / Harry04, Hi. Thanks for your wishes. I am from Pakistan and my signature gives some details on my case: EB3 ROW (Rest of the World), Texas Center with a Priority date of 2/24/2004. They are currently processing all EB3 ROW cases with priority dates of 5/01/2005 or earlier, so I am...

    Finally Greened :-)

    It's been a long wait. 8 years spot on with my current company waiting for my green card approval. To make matters worse after the early dotcom/telecom layoffs all company wide cases were withdrawn/cancelled in 2003. We had to re-apply afresh in 2004. The frustration of being given a new...

    I-140 Stuck

    I checked trackkit.com and noticed there have been very few EB3 I-140 approvals in the last few days. I wonder whats keeping them? What a mess! Jawad

    July 2008 Visa Bulletin Out!!!

    Thanks for the positive outlook :). I had read the same opinion earlier on another thread (which I am unable to find now). After finally filing for my I-485 last year and with my recent I-140 approval, the sense of desparation has diminished. But I would very much like to get over the final...

    July 2008 Visa Bulletin Out!!!

    What a shame. After a long wait, now that my I-140 was approved and I was told my name check had cleared and since EB3 ROW was current for the last 2 months, I thought there was an outside chance that my I-485 finally gets approved (soon). The wait continues :cool:.

    Is H1B & H4 visa re-stamping required? (having valid I797)

    snugjoint has said it correctly. As long as you do not plan on leaving the US, you are covered by the I-797 extensions. The H visa passport stamping is required if you have to leave the US and then re-enter. If you have to visit back home for some reason (after the 3 year H extension is approved...

    I-140 Stuck

    Tinystarr, Hi. I would think your I-140 approval should be near. I applied concurrently on 8/14/2007 with a Notice date of 10/12/2007. My I-140 got approved 2 weeks back, the same day the current I-140 processing dates moved to 8/26/2007. There was a soft update sometime in November, other...

    What does this mean? IO talk...

    I had called TSC day before yesterday, asking if my name check had cleared. I was told that this information could not be provided at this time, however my case was now in the hands of an Adjudicator. And if my name check has already cleared, it was ready to be adjudicated. I found this hard to...

    Called TSC

    I called today to find out about the status of my name check. The IO said she could not disclose the status of my name check but she did say that my case was now in the hands of an adjudicator. And if my case has already cleared the name check, then it is ready to be adjudicated. This sounds...

    I-140 Secrity checks @ TSC ---- big danger....

    Finally my I-140 was approved today evening. Checked before leaving work at 5:30 PM and there was no change. When I checked my email at 8:00 PM, there was an automated email notifying me of the approval. I logged into USCIS' online status check website and saw the approval confirmation...

    Service Centers Processing Times

    I am not sure if I am the only one who has experienced this. But if I click on the 'Back' button at the top of the Service Center page and select any other service center, then repeat the same thing and come back to my Service center (TSC), the colors will have changed. So I can see Greens...

    Approved 140 being revoked :(

    Fortunately for Texas, H1-B/H4 visa holders get to pay in-state tuition if you have been a Texas resident for over an year. My wife started going to school last year (H4) and she pays in-state. Jawad

    No SSN, no Stimulus Tax rebates for family

    More details discussed in this trackitt forum. Also from what I understand this is not an advance which will be deducted next year. It is a one time government incentive. And if you are unable to claim it this year, you may still be able to claim it as part of next year's tax return. Please...

    I-140 Approved - Feb 7th 2008

    If you go to trackitt.com and select I-140 and then use the drop-down menus to filter for cases similar to yours (centre, EB, concurrent etc.), you can get a fairly good idea of where they are at. Example: for EB3s, Texas, Regular processing, concurrent, I see that the majority of cases...

    No SSN, no Stimulus Tax rebates for family

    I just read up on this a little while back. It might have already been discussed on another section / thread. Found out if filling jointly and even if one spouse does not have a SSN (in my case my wife has an ITN) then you do not qualify for the Tax Stimulus package this year :(. Even though...

    H1B Visa Re-Stamping Help

    4. Unless things have changed, I was told I could re-stamp only 2 months prior to my current visa's exiration date. Or any day after. So for you that would mean you would not be allowed to re-stamp a new visa before July 30. I read somewhere that they were given a 3 month window. Please contact...

    Celtic, The date your Labor certification application was received by the Dept. of Labor, determines your priority date. Once your labor certification is approved, you then apply for your I-140 and I-485s. You can file them independently of each other or file them concurrently. Your I-485...
