Hi Guys,
My case is filed from Denver (Colorado) under Non-RIR/EB2 in October 2001. I haven't heard anything about 45days letter or anything else.
Pleople who applied from our company (Non-RIR/EB2) arond April 2002 or after got 45 dyas letters. It is very inconsistent.
Keep posting as you get information.

I agree with "the quality of life". In my case, I appreciate so much the freedom I enjoy in America--being a single woman with PhD without others' judgments, being able to choose and do things I love and had only dreamed when I was back home, being able to meet all kinds of people and share their perspectives of life... I won't have these if I were back home.
My family are all back home. Over the years, I have planted part of my roots in the U.S. I will fight for my Green Card, even though sometimes it feels like a black humor or irony.
That's the right spirit!!! I too feel more at home here than in my home country. Instead of complaining about skin color discrimination, which BTW I faced in my home country too, it is better to focus on the quality of life and personal freedoms we enjoy in the US.

USCIS will not return 485 applications:
Read Q:15 on this link: http://www.uscis.gov/files/pressrelease/EBFAQ1.pdf
It clearly says that application for interim benefit will be processed prior to final adjudication of adjustment application and some aliens may have to wait significant period of time, perhaps years, before visa become available.
So till USCIS don't have VISA numbers, AOS application will be kept till numbers becomes available and in mean time EAD will be issued.
I READ THESE WHOLE DOX TO HER , SHE TOLD ONLY THING IN FINAL ITS UP TO ME TO TRUST HER WORDS OR NOT , AND OTHER INF OFFICER ALSO TOLD THE SAME THING. HOW CAN TWO OFFICERS BE INCORRECT , TO CROSS VERFIY MY FRIEND CALLED HE TOLD ME THE SAME THING.

I really want us to succeed and I really want that our miserable wait should end. I can talk at length about my personal agony at waiting for years, but I don't think I need to.
So please understand that my steadfast arguments only intend to remind you that in our desperation to set things right we must not do something foolish. We should understand the implications of cooperating with any anti immigrant organization. I have come across lot of organizations that claim that they support legal immigration. However when you take a closer look at them they are phony and just trying to create good PR by claiming they support legal immigration. Even Tancredo claims he loves legal immigration, fact is this is a democratic country and no matter how right wing you are, you cannot afford to call a dog, a dog. People will always mask their real agenda.

Excellent point.
......
I would suggest keep faith & wish you all the best & pray that your labor approval from DBEC comes through at the earliest enabling you to file in the next 2- 3 weeks itself - be prepared with the other documents for 485 so that you are not caught by surprise when the labor approval happens.
What stage is your labor at DBEC...?

what fair trade? when it comes to interest of INfy and group it's fair trade? What about fair treatment of employees and fair competition?
By fair trade, I meant service oriented countries like India rely on exporting services (software, cust support, legal etc) and such people movement fees creates trade barrier.
I also see folks are beating up on Infosys for treatment of their employees. Many of you would be forgetting the choices you had as job seeker before these companies came around. IT companies are one of the reasons for rise of middle class in India

Can anyone of the attorneys on portal, shed some light on the issue please.
1. I am on AOS with I-485 pending
2. Working on EAD
3. My Advance parole is expiring in September I going to get it renewed by this weekend.
? Am I on a legal status in this country
? Can I still work on EAD
? Do I have to travel out of the country for some AP renewal (whatever?)
Please advise.
I think most of us who were panicing are in the same or similar situation. I would really appreciate if any of the attorney can give some expert advice on this.
Thanks in advance.

http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=5692
Somehow LogicLife post is on top now with some other posts followed by. Compare the title of the post with my post.
When I said this news, everyone jumped over me and pounded me with Agni and Trishul missles from every corner I could imagine and made me look like a fool. I did not respond at all after some time. It is my duty to share the information what I got from my lawyer. If others want to ignore it, it is upto them. But they did not, instead started mocking at my post. Now you are in the same boat. :) :(
better lock all the threads who open just for fun , sick of you guys . why one should fear , what there in this thread to fear , listen to my words let iv core hear about it if anything could be done fine to make sure its not correct , if it is correct alert ourselves. This means you dont want to hear anything that would effect ? come on guys.

You are right. When and if there is a enforcement only bill going through both houses of congress as promised by republican leadership today, IV leadership team as well as all of us need to be prepared and have a plan of action ready as to when and how our goals can get included in the bill. Since there is only about 3 weeks left in the congress session and the house majority leader plans to put a bill on president's desk before the election, I guess the time to act is now.
but, i would really appreciate, if IV leadership team could comment on this.

You are right, I don't have access to merger documents. I have been told by my old company that Only change needed in my case is to inform USCIS of employer change after 180 days of filing 485 via AC21.
ALso, New company is applying I 140 for those whose 140 was pending at the time of merger.
FYI..My old company applied for my H1 extension 15 days before merger and it got approved on November 30th. I was expecting an RFE since old company do not exist.
What else can be done to make sure everything is right after merger.
there is a memo; i think from 2001 which discusses successor in interest for h-1b and greencard cases.
uscis position is different for h-1b and greencard. For h-1b; new company only needs to show that it is taking on "immigration liabilities" and thus it won't be considered a change of employer.
for greencard cases; "substantially all assets and liabilities" have to be acquired by the successor entity. This is a little difficult in most merger cases because the new entity doesn't want to bring any hidden liabilities into the new company and the agreements generally do not accomodate to take on all liabilities.
USCIS position is that if 485 isn't pending for more then 180 days then petitioner should amend the 140 even if it is approved to include the new entity information. Do people do this; not really; only big companies generally do this because they will have other people filing 140's with new company but using old company labor and it will allow uscis insight that a merger happened and they may go into the old companies 140's on their own.
I doubt you would have access to the merger documents for you to make an intelligent decision in which way to proceed.

It is not that simple. Most of us think that USCIS consists of a bunch of civil servants with a near demonic desire to crush dreams of would be immigrants. The fact of the matter is that it is like any other government department, understaffed, arcane rules and procedures, overworked with a mix of competent and not so competent people, besides it is saturated with political pressures and has to change policies at the whims and mercies of the politicians/irate public etc. IV's interaction with USCIS has been the key for a number of process improvements, some changes were good for us and some were very bad but you accept the good with the bad(they were not even aware of the impact of some policies earlier)
Believe me, USCIS was under no obligation to release this data. Hundreds of requests from IV members for FOIA triggered something. I am sure they had internal reports (we now how the PD has been erratic over the years), but putting something on the public domain is totally different ballgame. It has to be vetted by a number of parties. As you can see the numbers will be questioned, retracting data on the public domain is not that easy. There will be additional questions about past decisions based on these numbers. Why do you think the number for family based backlogs were not released?
Members of IV put efforts to get the data is true. But I believe it will be unfair to grab credit of saying that USCIS published that data because of that.
Think little smarter, it was never the case that USCIS didn't have this data and report in hand. Very likely this type of reports were being circulated in high level management in USCIS.
They only published the data now when they realized that 245-i blunder is resolved and now it is safe to publish the data. They kept hold on the data till they couldn't explain how deeply Apr-2001 has impacted the whole system.

I would have admired them if they have played by rules and treated the employees well.

As far as I understand it, it is a credit for your 2008 tax which is already paid in 2008
and not in 2009. But different from exemptions on a W-4, you don't have to return
this credit if you don't qualify next year. It is a real tax credit. In 2001 there
was not a credit but a change in the tax system and you could get an advance
rebate.
It's a free lunch if you measure it in Dollars you receive. In reality it is just
newly "printed" money. So the dollar will have less value (inflation) and a person
who doesn't get the "rebate" is cheated. The economy will collapse anyhow.
I am not sure if you are 100% correct or not. The language of the bill uses similar text to 2001 (as said on other websites) and the key word is advance refunds. Here is the relevant text if any one has some time to chew on. read the text in size 4. It tells me that it is going back to uncle sam. A double whammy if you owe taxes next year.
(f) Coordination With Advance Refunds of Credit-
`(1) IN GENERAL- The amount of credit which would (but for this paragraph) be allowable under this section shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the aggregate refunds and credits made or allowed to the taxpayer under subsection (g). Any failure to so reduce the credit shall be treated as arising out of a mathematical or clerical error and assessed according to section 6213(b)(1).
`(2) JOINT RETURNS- In the case of a refund or credit made or allowed under subsection (g) with respect to a joint return, half of such refund or credit shall be treated as having been made or allowed to each individual filing such return.
`(g) Advance Refunds and Credits-
`(1) IN GENERAL- Each individual who was an eligible individual for such individual's first taxable year beginning in 2007 shall be treated as having made a payment against the tax imposed by chapter 1 for such first taxable year in an amount equal to the advance refund amount for such taxable year.
`(2) ADVANCE REFUND AMOUNT- For purposes of paragraph (1), the advance refund amount is the amount that would have been allowed as a credit under this section for such first taxable year if this section (other than subsection (f) and this subsection) had applied to such taxable year.
`(3) TIMING OF PAYMENTS- The Secretary shall, subject to the provisions of this title, refund or credit any overpayment attributable to this section as rapidly as possible. No refund or credit shall be made or allowed under this subsection after December 31, 2008.
`(4) NO INTEREST- No interest shall be allowed on any overpayment attributable to this section
and not in 2009. But different from exemptions on a W-4, you don't have to return
this credit if you don't qualify next year. It is a real tax credit. In 2001 there
