I work as a consultant for one of the big 5 firms implementing SAP applications. What is the job code referenced for this job? I want to know the job category it falls under as per the Dictionary of Occupation Title or the O*Net published by DOL. My company did not provide me this information but any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks everyone in advance,
Madhavi
Make sure you get the EVL in the same title as in your LC .Whatever is your title is currently not relevant to GC since GC is for future employement not for current employement what you perform.

Why don't send them an email stating that the project ended after 4 months? Don't forget to CC company B.
If the project ended, then you are not getting paid for that project anymore. So, that itself is your proof, in case you receive a legal notice. So, stop worrying.

I will take an Infopass. Did you get a new Card or they just corrected in their system?
My lawyer advised me to take an infopass to correct the name of my dependent on the EAD card. Instead of "e", they placed "a" and he said that I might as well have the name on the FP notice and I-485 corrected.

Dear Apahilaj:
You may wait till the end of this week and then call the USCIS. The FP notices may be on the way.
I also have a question for you: Did you submit your 485 applications directly to the Texas Service Center Or Nebraska, and on which date?
I have sent mine to TSC directly on July 24, 2007, and have received nothing; no checks are cleared, either, till today. Thanks.
Thank you all for responding.
I had submitted my application on July 2nd to NSC which later got transferred to TSC. TSC Notice date for application is August 27th.
I tend to agree - it must be dependent upon the availability of appointments also at ASC. I will wait till the end of this week and then give them a call.
BTW, how do I get to speak to a level 2 representative?
Thanks again.

I think the only person who would be qualified for this would be someone who is cryogenecally(typo intended coz I dont want to google for the correct spelling) frozen like Austin Powers.
By the way I like the way you start most of your posts with "Incorrect". If the "incorrect" person is lucky, they get appropriately color coded "incorrect" in red. I bow to your wisdom.
>> even 50 years
Incorrect.
Refer to my previous post on this.

My lawyer replied today saying that we cannot get an H1 extension as my 485 is filed and 140 cleared.
Your attorney's opinion is incorrect. You can request for 3 years extension as your 140 has been approved and PD is not current. If you PD is current, you will get only 1 year extension.

Q17: How will USCIS interpret the language of AC21 Sec 104(c) (for three-year H-1B extensions) during a period in which AOS applications could be filed?
A17. USCIS interprets AC21 �104(c) as only applicable when an alien, who is the beneficiary of an approved I-140 petition, is eligible to be granted lawful permanent resident status but for application of the per country limitations. Any petitioner seeking an H-1B extension on behalf of a beneficiary pursuant to AC21 �104(c) must thus establish that at the time of filing for such extension, the alien is not eligible to be granted lawful permanent resident status on account of the per country immigrant visa limitations

That is GREAT!
I can understand what you have gone through and it must be a big relief for you !
Can you tell us when did you resubmit your application and what fee did they accept..old or new. A friend of mine resubmitted his application a few days ago with new fee... his original app was rejected earlier because his attorney sent thre wrong fee amount...(neither new nor old..)
Good luck and enjoy the feleing now
We submitted the application with checks covering the old fee, also included an additional check to make up the difference for new fee. USCIS has cashed in all the checks (new fee).

Based on experience on waiting time of recently approved EAD's, on an average how long does it take to renew the EAD.

Hi everyone,
I received an RFE for my I-140 application from the Nebraska Service Center around the requirement for my Master's degree. I had completed all the necessary course work in Spring 2003 and have official letters from the director of the dept stating that I have completed my course requirements and will graduate in 2003. As luck would have it - there were major administrative delays and I finally got my degree in 2006.
My lawyer is concerned that in responding to the RFE - I might get a denial since the requirement was a Master's degree. But I have letters and on my official transcripts - it clearly shows that the last course work I attended in school was in 2003.
I am confused and feeling helpless since I am afraid that I will get a denial and will need to restart my entire process from scratch.
Has anyone been in a similar situation and gotten past it OR does someone have any ideas on how to get around this and come up with an RFE response that will get me the I-140 approval (EB2)?
What makes it worse is that I already have the AP and EAD documents for myself and my spouse approved in hand.......and am hoping that I do not go through this ordeal all over again - this is the 3rd time I am going through the entire process - the first two times was because of company layoffs.

If i am not drunk The whole idea of getting a labor substitution done was to get an earlier priority date. So i am pretty sure you should be getting your I-140 approved with the older priority date. I think you should talk to your lawyer to get it corrected.
I know all of us here do not like the idea of people jumping lines. But since you did all the hard work and were lucky enough to submit it before they banned substitution why not enjoy the fruits :)

- 485/765/131 submitted in Aug. Receipts are in with Oct 1 as the date. Why would they mark a date in October on the notice even though they physically received the applications on Aug 15th?
There should be two dates on your receipt notice, the receipt date : august and the notice date : october. If both are October, you need to contact t he USCIS.
- Should I be receiving an EAD 90 days from Aug 15th or Oct 1?
Aug 15
- My H1 will expire by the end of the year. Should I be concerned? Do I have to do anything if I receive the EAD before it expires? Assume a case where I get my EAD approved and for some reason, my wife who is on H1, fails to get her EAD before the end of this year. Do I have to file for her extension, or take some other action?
You should be getting your EAD by then otherwise you have to extend your H1B if you want to continue working. Once you get your EAD, update the form I-9 with your employer. As to your wife, you have to do nothing.
- When can a person safely switch his/her employer? 180 days after filing the application or after receiving I485 approval?
180 days after filing ( receipt date)
- Can a spouse work on the basis of the receipt notice from USCIS, or does she need to have the EAD approval?
She needs EAD approval and the physical card present with her
- How long (currently) would it take to receive the Green Card in hand? Are there enough numbers available with USCIS to allot GCs to almost everyone who qualifies?
No idea.
- Would I get the fingerprinting notice directly or would my employer receive it?
You will receive it
- What other formalities would be left after (assuming) 485/765 are approved?
Wait for the green card
- Does anyone know of a good site that shows a workflow of all these stages in a Green Card process?

Well, when you applied in the past the whole world was not current.. just imagine the number of people who will be applying for EAD's not that any one with an approved labor can get one ... do you think the USCIC is equipped to respond timely to every one?
There sure will delays and we need to plan for that.
I dont know exactly what is the issue here, but I have filed for EAD extentions 3 times in last three years and it was a very straight forward and easy process. We filed the extentions about 2 months before the expiration and got EADs and APs done in about a month.

Hi,
My friend got GC when he was single. Later he got married . So spouse is still in India . She has not received GC. She has no visa to visit him.
That is the reason H1B option is being explored. She has the right qualifications and relevant experience. US Corporation is willing to sponser her H1B petition.
Since her husband is already in USA and green card holder, visa officer might reject her H1B petition stating that she is an intended immigrant.
or
he might issue the H1B visa because it is a dual intent visa.
So what's the chances of her getting the H1B visa.
Thanks
Check out some websites, there is something called hardship waiver, see if it applies to your case

> If you are promoted as IT manager having significant overlap of job functions, you should be fine.
No. That is incorrect. A manager is responsible for managing people (besides other
duties). That is a totally different job description and different category for labor.
Some useful info:
* If you are on H1 and job description changes (like u become a manager), H1
amendmend MUST be filed.
* If you are using EAD, then company doesn't need to file anything. If a RFE comes,
you are required to show proof of job position with job description corresponding to
that of approved labor. If your company is ready to do that (or u can get that somehow),
you are good.
* If you don't follow the rules, you WILL be fine as long as a RFE does not come :-)
* Lastly, I know people in many companies where for HR purposes they are still a
developer (or whatever) and for real, they perform totally different job functions (like
marketing). If your company allows this, then it's an option (not legal, but practiced ).
