2005 Consolidated Tracker (140/EAD/AP/FP/485)

Yes, sounds like you are being looted.

Look at h-1b data collection form.

Between question 8 and question 9; it says if you answered yes to any of the questions before 9 then you only submit $190.

Question 4 asks for yes/no answer. Question is; is this the second or subsequent request for extension that you have filed for this alien?

If you answer yes; ie., it is third h-1 for the beneficiary from the same company then you only pay $190.

If answers are "no" then in question 9 it asks for number of employees. If over 25 then pay additional $1,500. If less then 25 then $750.

After 9 there is a "note" which says if you are seeking intial approval or approval for an employee currently working for someone else then pay additional $500.
Thank you very much for providing valuable information. Appreciate your time.

labsub,

Thanks for your suggestion. Do you think it is a good idea to setup an InfoPass Apppointment considering that I have opened up a Referral on Feb 28th?

I guess the web is the best way to setup an InfoPass appointment. Is that correct?

All Gurus please advise as appropriate.

Thanks in advance.

Meghraj,

Inspite of opening a Referral, you should use infopass on the web to get a face to face meeting with an immigration officer. You will get the latest/greatest status of your 1485 petition.
Did you get any recent LUDS on 485?
Good luck.

thanks kopa!

Yes, i got email after couple of days of responding to the RFE. I have seen cases in the past where the employers/lawyers had to resend the RFE response to get proper updates. I would suggest resend the response to your RFE asap.

Good luck!

Did your online status changed after they received your reply for RFE? How long it took for this change? My employer sent response a month back, so far there is no change in the line status.

Thanks

Labsub,

There have been no LUDs (for me & my wife) since a string of them after FP in Apr 2005.

I don't understand the delay.

Thanks for the advice.

Michvin,

What is "name check" and "infopass"?

Regards,

name check - checking your name against DB of criminals/terrorists (search for it on this forum)
infopass ia an appointment sytem where you can speak to the immigration officer

To find the name check status first either you have to call USCIS or you may ask your congress man / senator to ask USCIS on behalf of you. If name check not completed then you have to request congress man / senator to ask FBI about status . Good luck.

IND77,

I have an InfoPass Appointment this week. I should be able to ask the Immigration Officer if my Name Check is complete. Am I right?

I guess I will have to take it from there.

One more question: I am assuming that by congress man / senator you mean the one's in Washington representing the area where we live. Is that a correct assumption?


Thanks in advance.
