Urgent! Would INS actually contact the writer of the experience verification letter?

Hi,

For 140 application, one of my fiends who wrote an experience verification letter for me
before, is going to move back to India for personal reasons this week, and will
not come back to the US again.

So his contact information on the experience letter will NO LONGER
be valid (I believe phone will be disconnected and mail will be returned).

Would INS actully call him or mail him a letter?

Does anyone have an experience?

I am so worried as I do not know how to do.
 
In my personal opinion, USCIS (formerly INS) will not contact the letter-writer unless they have solid reason to believe forgery or fraud.

Even then, I dont think they have the time nor patience to contact such writer.IF they have reason to believe that ALL/MOST of such letters are forged, then they might deny the current petition,put the applicant on black list and deny all future petitions as well.

IF one of the letters seems to be out of place, then they might ask for more letters from US government sources.

Since you have not committed such thing as fraud or forged your friend's letter, you dont have to worry. IF they want, they will contact you ( there is absolutely NO chance of this happening) and then you can update them with your friend's new contact information.

Since the letter-writer and you belong to the same country,USCIS may not even look at his letter.

Relax.
 
I have another twist to this question. I am planning to oprovide experience letters.

Can I provide an experience letter from someone who I have not worked with at all? The reason is I worked for a company in 1996 and I do NOT have contact even a single person there. They have all moved out.

I was planning to use a friend who knew that I was working in a company from a particular start date to end date? Would this be acceptable? Does anyone foresee any issues or have had experience similar to mine?

I think it should be acceptable if someone is ready to vouch for you.
Make sure to include all the contact details of your friend who is writing this letter.


Something is better than nothing.

Might be even more better if you can get some one else too to vouch this period of your employment.

------ if the comany still exists then the comany has record of your employement with them and anybody employed with that company can write a letter that you worked with this company. If all of your friends moved out then somebody from comany can inform you about some of your friends where they are working. dont you have any contact (email, home phone# of your friends who worked with you) if you mean to say that you want to get letter from a person who never worked with you in same company then USCIS will not accept that letter.

A friend of mine worked at his cousin's small business while going to college. He was living with them but he was not getting paid. You can call it volunteer work. Can he use that experience for his experience letter to file for a labor certification. He did that for more than 2 years. He is thinking about filing an EB3 case. Any info on this matter would be really appreciated.

It is not volunteer work. Your friend replaced a USC/LPR for a job which is paid otherwise and has financial angle. Infact it will be termed illegal.
 
Thanks for the info. There are no short cuts and he will have to go through the long process like the rest of us.
