You would be best served with the services of an experienced attorney in this area. This is a rather difficult situation. Any answers on this board are likely to be speculative. Some money spent in this critical juncture would be money well spent.
From what I can see, you have 2 options, either to continue with your currently approved 140 and file for a 485 or get a new one and try to affix your PD from the old approved 140. Either way once you get to the 485 stage you should be more secure in things, and can then look to invoke AC 21 rules.

i have a friend from mexico that got here cause she married a us citizen, well long story short her green card expires on the 21st of august she has an appointment on that day for what i think is to get her permanent residency. well her problem is that she just caught her husband cheating on her and doesnt want to be with him anymore. but she thinks if she leaves him , she will destroy her chances of getting her permanent residency. how does that work? is she forced to stay with him even though he mistreats her and cheats on her to be able to get her residency? any responses would be appreciated . thanks in advance.
Your question is not clear. "her green card expires on the 21st of august"
- She already got GC ? and expiring after five or 10 years? If so, the divorce will not impact the GC process.
"she has an appointment on that day for what i think is to get her permanent residency"
- If she is not yet getting her GC, then it will impact the GC. Either she has to be patient or lose it. Even after getting GC, if she goes for divorce immediately it will trigger investigation as if your friend married US citizen just to get the GC.
This process is complicated and I dont think you can get the right answer in this forum. Better check with attoney.

Does it mean that the full case will be covered in 15 days or till the query is send if any... Hope i am being clear..
What my concern is after the query is send and replied, still the 15 day limit stays or it loses that and goes back to the normal processing.
Thankyou

Folks in Alipac are enjoying this news - they say such a thing is good for the country because Indians and Chinese won't come here anymore
They seem to be a bunch of chaotic confused folks and don't know what they want.

I am putting an extra freshly painted mailbox with a big bold name in red color and a message-- 'Put my greencard here' for the postman. :)
Lets see how many years it will take for him to finally grant me my wish.
Yeah. Why not put a red stocking (christmas stocking) in the mail box tagged "For Greencards only. Do not put pizza hut coupons in here. This is for USCIS approval notices and greencards only".

What did your lawyer say about this? Now you have a delivery confirmation, did you lawyer suggest that USCIS consider the dates as of last year and process your resubmitted application. Certainly it is not your fault,,
They said that they would request an exception in our case. We are going to request that based on our original submission date that our pending case have a current priority date. All dates were current for our case up until the April visa bulletin.
I am really hoping that USCIS sees this error. Has anyone had any experience with USCIS? And were they cooperative?
thank you for your reply.

One of my friend who applied for an EAD renewal got it approved. But it went back to USCIS as undeliverable by post office. So he calls USCIS and opens an SR, and the rep says that his PR card application has been approved and will be remailed to him. Which means, they initially sent the GC instead of EAD. Can this happen? His PD is not current, he is from india with a PD of 2004.
Also, after he opened an SR for this, he received a notice from USCIS via postal mail that an SR was created and that they are remailing the PR card and if he does not receive it within 60 days, he needs to call them.
I told him that they are mistaking PR card for an EAD card and its the EAD card thats coming back to him. Anyone here had such an experience?? And defenitely my friend is just not excited too as he knows USCIS does not even know to put the correct card name in the notice.

This processing dates is just an act or rather a scam. USCIS and DOS will do what they like. I personally know a lot of people who applied there 485 a month after I did during July 2007 and whose priority date was 6 to 7 months behind me and they got there green card in August 2008 and I did not, I am sure a lot of you are in the same position. Whats the point in looking at these processing dates when there is no order or proper manner in which USCIS processes them, it is worse than a fish market. If we are lucky the monthly bulletin dates might move again (I doubt it), even if it moves you just dont know how far it might move, it might be 1 month or even to 2007. USCIS will then issue GC to 2007 and make a fool of 2004 and 2005 folks. I guess we have no choice but to bear this brutality. I for one have stopped looking at processing dates and even monthly bulletin. On top of it we have Obama\Durbin in control of washington, not sure what sort of nightmarish "immigration reform" they are cooking. I am at a low point, for the first time I am fearing I might have to leave US (or might be kicked out of US by Obama \Durbin "Immigration reform") after comming here and staying legally for 10 years and obeying all the laws.
Hi pitha, i understand your frustration but one thing in which the processing dates helps is like in my case, if my h1b extension is pending for 60 days i can call them only if their processing dates says less than 2 months, otherwise these guys wont even answer the call saying call back after checking processing dates.

My PERM has been pending for over one year, and I just got the H1 Approval for 1 year and 2 months (1 year H1 Extension and 2 months recapture time). I am currently in Malaysia and need to apply for a visa at US Consulate in Malaysia. Since I am on the H1 visa, I have to show the proof that I will return back to Malaysia after the end of my work period in US. Accordingly, I would need to purchase the round trip ticket. The issue is that the plane ticket only valid for the maximum of 1 year, but my visa valid for 1 year and 2 months. Please advise if one way plane ticket would be sufficient for the visa interview or need to be a round trip plane ticket. If it is not, what should I do? Also, I wonder if the application package including I-129 submitted to USCIS need to be stamped �Certified True Copy� with the original signature of the lawyer or employer for the visa interview. Can I use the copy one that is stamped �Certified True Copy� with the non-original signatures of my lawyer or employer? Anybody pls help. Thank you very much.

Last year the top 5 countries in EB got all these visas:
Total EB ****** 159,081
Philippines ***** 23,733
India ********* 17,169
Korea ******** 10,886
China ******** 9,484
Mexico ****** 8,864
The actual limit is 7% of the total EB plus FB which is:
(140,000 + 226,000) * .07 = 25,620
What is FB of 226,000 ?

My home city is holding a hearing tomorrow on immigration, and I'd like to offer up the opportunity to take your collective feedback to the hearing.
What are the issues that you face in everyday life? What are things you have to do now that infringe on your ability to be as productive as you could? What are things that you are prevented from doing?
How do you think local governments might act to improve the situation to the benefit of everyone?
Cities do have an interest. For example, divided families have well documented ill affects on children that lead to risky behaviour and increased local social issues. City tax revenues are lost by the inability of H1B visa holders to start a business or to move to higher paying jobs.

One of my colleague did withdraw his PF in an exactly same situation (not in TCS though), and you can definitely file 10C and 19 directly with the PF office without involving your employer. PF administration is now much more efficient and strictly works on behalf of employees, not employers. Even if any PF amount is not deposited by the company, PF has started taking immidiate actions against them.
Thank you richi.
Iam also thinking on the same lines.
Also looking forward to any TCS PF withdrawal experiences.

I can understand your concerns. A few years back we had similar questions and concerns when my MIL travelled. She was old and had never travelled alone before. Could not speak any english either. We thought it was best for her to travel with wheelchair assistance and it worked good. She has travelled twice ( on lufthansa) with no issues.
One thing we did to help her was give a covering letter that she could present to the airline staff which would explain her needs if any while travelling. We also prepared and gave her several flash cards (one liners) written in both the local Indian language alongwith the English translation for her to communicate if she needs anything on the flight.
Non -verbal communication works well sometimes. It worked for us.

I wonder what is the need of such crap from these airlines? Why not fly directly when service is available. Racism in Europe is a known fact and is evident everywhere. Best is to boycott their service and they will realize the result. Until people start doing it on massive scale they will not provide proper service.
My advice screw Europe, fly direct. This will help US economy and help create jobs here and can indirectly help us here.

Well, if you go according to the Lawyer of this forum with which guys had a conference call (you can hear the recording thats on the home page of this site)
Then its advisable to apply in EB3 category and her reasoning was that with her experience she has seen lots of EB2 application in the past few years and very less EB3 apps and hence chances of EB3 being processed earlier than EB2 are quiet high.
Also, consider the job satisfaction/career growth you will get by taking up this new job which you said is better than your current one.....Keeping in view the current trend, it will be atleast 5-6 yrs for Eb-2 to come to Oct 2007....Ask yourself if you want to be doing what you are doing right now for that long......I would move on.....
