I cannot find the status online or on the phone. I get the same message. They don't give info to the beneficiary. So attorney called and after spending 30 mins on the phone they were able to locate my I140. He said that once they put it online they will sent an email. This was few weeks ago and still nothing happened. But my employer received a letter from Nebraska stating that attorney or someone called to find the status of the I140 and that it will take some days(I don't remember the exact number as I know that it will take much longer than what they specified) to process this case.
There are so many people who are in this situation.
Hope this helps.

I believe in IV and its efforts.
I understand rally will help IV to demonstrate the people support.
I understand, in rally and after rally IV requests/lobbys law-makers to fix the broken immigration system system.
But can someone clarify me, what exactly IV is requesting law-makers?
1) Are we asking to re-capture visa numbers? (150K may not be sufficient for 750K applicants)
2) Remove country limit (still have to 5 years)
3) Increase the EB quota?
4) Clear all current pending Backlog labor/I-140/I-485/etc applications by 2009? This is temporary solution, but will solve the problem for now.
5) Another Immigration Reform bill for legal?
Having clear answers will help to gain support from my friends, colleagues and more and more people will be willing to join.
Thanks

I thought of adding that in the poll as I am in a similar situation. The only difference for me is that the attorney is a very big law firm and are EXTREMELY busy. My compnay is not able to do anything either since their involvement in I-485 is negligible.
I am in a bit of a pickle here :(
How about adding "No control as Lawyer will not inform when he will file".
This option may be valid for many users using the Corporate attorney.

I am contacting them and will march with them. If undocumented get a bill, our bill will come automatically. We should be supporting them. If we support them they will also support us. With their support we can get our bill. If we try to do a rally for ourselves the so called educated people on H1B and EAD will not come. They will rather spend time driving in their nice car to Disney or eat out in a fancy restaurant. So I believe we need to side with undocumented and help them to help ourselves.

1-800-375-5283 Option 1,2,2,6,2,2,1 and tell them your application has been filed over 90 days so that they will transfer your call to second level customer support.
For my case, she thought that maybe my application is missing, this is the reason that she sent a request to NSC to look for my application.
Because I got my AP receipt and there is no information for I-485, and AP is based on 485.
My employer messed up my perm labor two years ago, and i hope it is not this time.

Congressman foolish enough to say stuff like that could be Tom Tancredo.
I was watching FOX News this afternoon around 3:00 pm EST and they talked about a Polish Lady sueing the USCIS. Her lawyer was on the show and he talked about the issue. The host then talked to a Congress man (i think it was Tom Lombardo and he said that the US is bringing in a way too many immigrants and the US should stop it for a few years). When asked if the woman was wronged he rephrased the word wrong by "was caused inconvenience". Anyways, the lady's lawyer hit the nail on the head. When asked if she was sueing to get a green card. Her lawyer said no. He said his client was sueing for financial damages and also for allowing her to submit her application as submitting the application has benefits.

Thanks everybody for the responses.
Make sure you keep a record of the AR11 confirmation number after submitting. USCIS is pretty bad at updating the records. So it is good to prove that you have done your part by showing the confirmation number if necessary.

I met a US citizen of Indian origin who came to US in 1991 on a tourist visa and in those days, they managed to get green cards - dunno how. He never visited India. Got married here and still visualizes India as how it was in 80s.
By the way, even today if one marries a USC, one can get GC right away. Actually you get EAD till the GC gets processed.
Besides this, I have come across people coming to US in 1990 on B1, then overstay and convert to H1B.
Thats because 10 year ban and other tough rules etc for illegal stay was passed in 1996. Over the years immigration rules have been tightened.
1986: 2 year conditional GC for marriage to USC was passed. Before that one could marry get GC and divorce the next day. Employers need to do paper checking before they hire people.
1996: Beginning of tightening screws on immigrants.
First harsh anti- immigration was passed. affidavit of support for family based GC.
Massive increase in discretion powers for immigration officers at POE etc.
10 year ban etc on overstay
In fact 1996 rules were so harsh that basically the sheer strict enforcement of these rules on H1Bs makes life miserable.
Plus major difference between 1996 and 1986
In 86 tough rules was a price extracted for amnesty for illegals.
In 1996 not even one clause was pro immigrants.

If you stay out of country for long time CIS may consider that you may abandon GC.
I need expert advice -
My I-140 has been approved and I-485 pending for more than 18 months. I have a valid EAD & AP. I also have a valid H1-B visa valid till 2011,
that I am using for my current employment with my current employer
1. If I get laid-off, how long can I stay in US without another job?
2. I understand that in order to maintain my eligibility to "port" to a new employer / sponsor under AC21, I should have another job in same or similar occupation. Till I find another job, am I allowed to do some part-time job in different occupation?
3. If new employer gives me the option to move permanently to its subsidiary in another country, what are the available option for me to continue with green card processing?
4. If after going out of the country , I want to come back in future before Green card approval, what will be the available options?

According to IRS you are citizen(Any one who stays more that 180 days and pays taxes in us is a citizen according to them). You can apply for student Loan as a citizen if you use this clause intelligently. This is how most students get credit cards. If you say you are on H1 to a credit card company they will never give you the card.
Again this is only my opinion. I might be wrong.:)
What you are talking about here is called 'Resident Alien' - the IRS definition of someone who pays taxes just like a citizen on a regular form 1040 (by the way, students are non-resident aliens and pay taxes on 1040NR). To open any financial account you must disclose if you are citizen/resident alien or non-resident alien, and yes some companies do not open accounts to non-resident aliens, but it is acutally up to companies where they draw the line - most credit card companies are glad to open accounts to foreign students (hey, it's a free country, you can't tell a company whom to lend the money and whom not, provided it's not taxpayer money).
The kicker about the student loans is that there is special Federal financing available only for loans taken out by citizens and LPRs (Sally Mae and recent student loan scandal ring any bells? yes, these are loans). So, oups, no luck here without a green cards.

new H1 and H1 visa renewal are done in all US embassies in Canada.
1. Look out for dates, after registering and paying fees. USD 9.50 for one appointment of one, two, three .... members.
2. Dates are not available, but are released around 20th in bult; also, check out each hour.
3. Allow 30 days for Canadian TRV (temporay visitors visa) to come in mail
4. Go for visa interview.
I did all the above, but had to cancel Vancouver appointment for lack of leave from a very good and generous employer ( I am in operations). Any other questions, please feel free to PM me.
Are they now allowing to get a H1/H4 stamping done in Canada instead of going back to home country ?

as july VB states all EB categories for india is current, is there a chance ( or even worst case scenario ) where the dates can retrogess in the middle of month anytime ?
in other words can we take it for granted that the dates will NOT move back till the last working day of july 07
any ideas / inputs ?

Thanks for your response. Yes, I am in biological research. I Hope it does not take longer than 2-3 weeks. Also I see posts for Blue, green, yellow slips and everyone seems to be stuck for long. However there are hardly any cases for Pink slip, WHY?? is it that hardly anyone gets a pink slip or they seems to have less problems so no one bothers to post it here?
