Thank you for your input.

I filed the I-485 in July 2007 (India EB2, PD March 2005) and since then I have received the EAD though my H1B is valid until March 2010. Since the Dec '07 Visa Bulletin (with further retrogression for EB2 India to 2002) , I doubt my PD will be current anytime within the next year or two...

For the Simplified Application Process for Canadian Permanent Residency for Skilled workers, what are acceptable forms of payment for the Canadian $550 processing fee? Could someone please direct me to information on this topic? I've tried to look it up on the CIC and the Buffalo office...

Hello all, I need to travel abroad early next year. I filed I-485 and EAD in July 2007. Now I would like to file AP as well. Could someone clarify if AP can be filed without receiving the I-485 receipt? One response I received on this website's forums stated that the I-485 receipt must be...

Thanks Jackolantern! Since I'm not sure when the receipt will arrive, I better make arrangements for the H1B stamp anyway.

EAD applied - AP not yet applied I filed the I-485 along with EAD on July 17th. However, I did not file AP. I currently am on the 4th year of H1B (valid through 2010). I have not yet received a receipt for the I-485/EAD. I would like to travel outside the country early next year and have a...

Aren't American bald eagles an endangered species? ;) But thank you all for weighing in.

On a similar train of thought, what (if anything) happens when a GC recipient quits his job at the sponsoring employer six months after receiving the green card and goes on to something totally unrelated? For example: 1. An engineer gets his green card and decides to attend business...

Response to zbd .. My H-1B situation is similar to yours (am currently on year 4 of H-1B extension but don't have visa stamp in passport). For the I-485 application, my attorney entered my current H-1B visa expiration date but for the 'Visa #' and the 'Place of issue' he entered the details...

Buy Gold (bullion and coins preferably and then gold mining stocks, mutual funds, ETFs). Gold and equities tend to be negatively correlated (one rises, the other falls).

sfmars and njskm Thanks for your responses. Its greatly appreciated.

!!!! Your sarcasm is not appreciated!

Thanks! Thank you both for your responses! I am in the process of figuring out whether I truly want to continue in my current line of work or make a clean break and move on with my life. So if I go on to business school, I doubt I'll return to this employer. But its nice to know I have the...

Owing to retrogression for EB2 India, I'm considering quitting my job while waiting for my PD to become current (PD March 2005), and enrolling in business school in the UK, and keeping open the possibility of returning to my job once my PD is current. My I-140 is approved and my employer has...

If one of my parents wasn't born in India, can I use his/her country of birth to file my (EB2) I-485? I spoke to two attorneys and they gave me two conflicting answers: Attorney #1: Definitely "yes" if BOTH parents were born outside India, but a "grey area" when ONLY ONE parents' birthplace...

Vancouver - less popular, therefore more availability In 2004, I chose to get my H1B visa stamp in Vancouver as there were more interview slots available. It was very efficient and I received the stamp and picked up my passport the same day.

HSMP + Top 50 MBA programs I am interested in applying to the MSc Finance program in the UK. May I know where I can find a list of the Top 50 Business Schools? Would a graduate from a UK MS Finance program be eligible for UK permanent residency under the HSMP provision?

Hoping in vain I am precisely in that situation .. hanging on for the GC alone .. And since I'm EB2 2005-India , I've been casting around for options. Had a heart-to-heart with my institution's immigration officer. He suggested that as the GC is for a "future" job, I could take time off (aka...

Then why would USCIS bother .. Then why would USCIS bother to change the entire system just for the sake of applicants from one backlogged country?
