Hi,
Going to canada for H1B extension visa stamping for first time. I am asking my friend in canada to get Scotia Bank Receipt. The US Consulate site say that scotia bank accepts US$ Cash/Money order/Certified check. How my friend will get 150 US$ in canada? Does he needs to pay in equivalant Candian Dollors and scotia bank will convert to US$ or I need to send 150$ from here?
Thanks.

Can anyone please comment on Massachusetts licensing requirements? and the validity period for someone who is working on EAD? Thanks!
Fortunately, MA is still unaffected by the xenophobic policies regarding Driver's Licenses that are prevalent in other states. You can renew your license online, and the length or the nature of the validity of your immigration status has no influence on the type or duration of the driver's license. How long this will stay like this in MA is anybody's guess. I am sure they will also become restrictive when pressure is brought on by REAL ID regulations.

I am really excited to hear finally we got $60K to continue our approach to urge immigration reform. That is really great! And I already asked my employer to send letter to NYS Senator Charles Schumer and Hillary Clinton to support comprehensive immigration reform. We invited them to talk with us at their convenient time. Guys, keep hard work. That's our life and we must succeed in this immigration reform.

When the US govt is ignoring the problems of legal immigration and making it harder and harder to immigrate (especially when the interest of foreign nationals to come here has subsided with unprecedented growth in their native country...) it is foolish to expect to lure skilled people to this country any more

all new members, pls bring in more people like us to this forum.
http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=30&Itemid=36
has an email format that you can forward to your friends. Lets increase the presence on this forum.
we only have about 4k members. However people on H1B visas every year are 65+K and retrogression affected people are more than 300K. Thus we have lot of scope for bringing more members. Remember, more numbers would also mean more weight for IV when talking to lawmakers.

Hi,
My wife's 485 is rejected with the following reason "The application/petition was filed on the outdated version of this form". The rejection notice has a receive date of July 1st 2010 and a LIN number. Now the problem-
My 485 was approved on July 8th, 2010 and I received a "Welcome to USA" notice on July 12th. My H1 has expired on July 14th, 2010 along with wife's H4 and our I-94's. We applied for both the H extensions in may. Now if we resubmit the 485 with the new application will the USCIS honor the July 1st receive date?
My main concern is on her status, any input will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
yes you can still file her 485 since you were married before your approval. upto 6 months of out of status is anyway acceptable for 485 filing, so dont worry about the 5 days.
However get hold of a real good lawyer (Murthy/Rajiv Khanna etc) to file this case now so there is no screw-up again.

that is not bad thinking that all the stories we heard about hundreds of people who were friends' friend and were deported at EWR.
While I understand for those 3 people it is virtually a nightmare, but it does bring things into perspective.

I am in the same boat as well. But you answer your question - am almost sure you don't need FP to renew your EAD. Having said that - why would renew your card in June? (Considering that you might not have received your EAD till Aug-Sep'07 of last year).

Great ruling. The analysis is totally applicable to AOS. Moreover, the government admitted that it was wrong in recent memo.
"In the context of removal proceedings, ICE has determined that FBI fingerprint checks and Interagency Border Inspection Services (IBIS) checks are the required checks for purposes of the applicable regulations."
Wait a minute, isn't immigration judge able to grant AOS in removal proceedings? It means that the DHS acknowledges that it wrongfully interpreted regulations for all these years and that name check is not required by law (at least for AOS) as we were saying all along!
I love also this part: "in the unlikely event that FBI name checks reveal actionable information".
As judge Baylson pointed out, "name check" is nowhere to found in laws and regs.
Good point about the recent memo -- happily there are multiple pdfs of it floating around so they can't make that language disappear -- and and immigration judge granting AOS. Those two points should do.
About "name check" nowhere found in laws -- i.e no language in some obscure subsection -- I just want to make sure that the interpretation is ironclad for AOS, we know it is for naturalization.
Yep, I *love* the "unlikely event" part.

other than waisting my time (5min) in signing this petition (which by the way is another source of 'compelling stories'), is this bill worth the effort of IV core and IV members to support and follow-up, i.e. is it a good bill for us ? I have not read the bill itself. I am not very familiar with navigating the US legislation system. Do we have any idea what kind of support is out there for this bill ? Is this bill going to solve anything ? It is one thing to mandate fixing the system. The other thing is to actually do it. FBI recently canceled a big IT project that lasted a couple of years and is basically scrapped. Was that system supposed to fix the FBI namecheck backlog but failed ? Even if this bill passes and congress 'mandates' the FBI to fix the system, how long will it take to fix it ? They could spend another 3 years implementing a new system (personally I don't understand why - there is plenty of COTS tools out there to implement a Google-like system). But voting this bill could put a new urgency on the matter and inject new money in the effort.
Or am I waisting everybody's time on this and does it not pertain to our cause (getting CIR passed) ?

Hi,
My husband's H1B is over on 22nd February 2008. Now he trying to file AC21 with another company. Is there any way he can apply for H1B transfer with that company as couple of weeks already passed? Appreciate your help.
If not already done so, I would suggest you contact a good attorney immediately and not rely on forums on what to do.....

Thanks Yagw. Appreciate your response. That is the part I am not certain: If they ask for Copies of Tax return?
Also, as per my understanding, You only get RFE when your PD is current (I did not file AC21, when I switched to EAD). And, since EB3 india is stuck on Oct 01 for months now, It will be years before they get to my case. Am I right in my assumption ?
>> Also, as per my understanding, You only get RFE when your PD is current
Incorrect.
RFE and I-485 denial can be issued even when PD is not current.
