All,

I see only IGATE folks actively posting messages regarding company name change. I think there are others who visit this board but belong to other companies which also changed names or were bought and sold to other companies.

I appeal to all other company name change I-485 applicants to please come forward and post your experiences as well. Especially those who filed for their adjustment of status in \'99 and \'00. I request you to join this board and post even if you are from small companies with this situation.

Could you please let us know if you folks are having problems/ delays with the INS holding up your I-485 applications because of company Name change.
It would also greatly help all of us if you could also post the response or the actions which your company management and/or your legal department is taking to help you get your approval.

We are all in this mess and if all of can share our problems ( even if we are from different service centers ) it would help get an idea about the discrepancies ( if any ) between different service centers in processing these kind of specific cases.

Thank you all

Hi Vsc_on_hold,
    I am one of the victim from other than IGATE. My case is under review from Dec 00 on wards without any RFE. There are 31 Redo and 8 under review cases pending due to this name change problem. I tried to talk to my company and it is of no use. I depend on mostly on Mastech people to get the update. I also tried to talk to INS once a month. They repeat the same old story.
   With nearly 40 people, can we do something like taking to court.. If each person contributes say $1000, it will be 40K. Is this amount sufficient to hire a lawyer?

   What do you think?

Thanks

I am one of those people, whose company name changed between I-140 approval and I-485 application.

Called IIO last week and was told that my case is on hold since the company name is different on I-140. The IIo also told me that they are waiting for regulations and she did not know when the regulations will be out.

My details
PD 9/96
ND 10/15/99
FP 3/15/2001
I-485 status :ON HOLD

Thanks for the responses. Do any of you guys know what;s happening with METAMOR / COMSYS folks ? I think went through a name change / company buy-out and then a sell-out ? Are these folks receiving there approvals ?

Regarding filing for a case, more people the better.
( My opinion ):
Of course the more similar the cases of all the people in the group the better.
If you have a huge bunch with widely different NDs and RDs it might not really help define a \'class\'. We need to assemble a group with very close and similar grievances for the attorney to effectively represent the group. Otherwise the case/lawsuit is doomed to be thrown out / lost for lack of a \'representative\' sample.
