Hi,
Can the invitation letter and the letter to the consulate be faxed to my parents to present to the consulate, or do I need to courier the original signed letters over?
Thanks!

According to a FAQ on Murthy.com about the Yates memo, it is possible to switch jobs (using AC21) if 140 and 485 have both have been pending 180 days. Murthy doesn't advise this under normal circustances because if an RFE is received on the 140, then it is problematic if you've left the company.

Hi All,
My employer has filed for ETA 9089 and it is approved. I am paying for the green card processing. Before applying for I-140 he asked me to sign a memorandum which states that I am bearing the complete expenses of the process (filing fees of I-140 , I-485 and $500 extra) . It also states that I need to be with the company for 6 months from the time green card is approved. In case I leave the company prior to 6 months for whatsoever reason, I need to pay $15000 as damaging charges to company.
He says that signing this memorandum is mandatory otherwise he will not file I-140.
My questions is , Is it legal to bind an employee to these conditions and ask processing fee to file Green card ? Also are these documents valid from legal perspective ?
Please let me know your thoughts on this. Appreciate it.
Thanks,
Raj

Congrats to IV core team on pulling something very improbable; filing I-485 till Aug 17th honoring the July visa bulletin.
Any idea what are the options for Employment-based CP? I already applied for CP and am waiting for Packet 3. Packet 3 itself takes 6-8 weeks for processing. I tried to find info when visa number is alloted when u choose CP for greencard. I am getting conflicting information.
Can I file I-485; can I switch to 485 from CP. How long does the switch take. Thanks for ur inputs.
PS: I am re-posting this message as I have n't heard from anyone. My apologies.
-Thanks

Congress's Start (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/05/12/AR2007051201099.html) -- It's time to begin recording concrete achievements, Sunday, May 13, 2007
FOUR MONTHS into the 110th Congress is too early to assign grades to the new Democratic majority -- but not too soon to remind lawmakers that most of their self-assigned tasks remain undone; that progress in the next few months on immigration, trade and lobbying reform is critical; and that this Congress will be judged on what it accomplished -- and on where it punted.
The biggest punt thus far concerns entitlement spending, an issue on which the administration, chiefly Treasury Secretary Henry M. Paulson Jr., has been seeking to jump-start discussions. This is an auspicious moment that Democrats seem determined to squander. First, the Democratic Congress has a lame-duck Republican president who could take, or at least share, the blame for cuts that will have to be part of any solution. Second, as members of Congress well know, the longer they wait to take on Medicare and, particularly, Social Security, the harder the problem they will face.
Democrats have seized on Vice President Cheney's comments to Fox News in January about raising payroll taxes -- "This president has been very, very clear on his position on taxes, and nothing's changed" -- as a rationale for why they can't risk bargaining with the administration. But this is an excuse, not a legitimate basis for inaction. After all, Mr. Cheney also said there would be "no preconditions."
Meanwhile, lawmakers for the most part have used their oversight powers usefully, though we wish more energy were spent examining torture policies, for instance, and less on subpoenaing the secretary of state. Although the budget process has yet to play itself out, the adoption of tough pay-as-you-go rules to constrain new mandatory spending has had a surprisingly beneficial effect in restraining demands for new programs. The Senate's passage of a measure to strengthen the Food and Drug Administration's regulatory powers is an important step.
Still unanswered is whether Democrats will deliver on their campaign promises and whether both sides will find ways to forge consensus on issues of common concern. House Democrats' "Six for '06" campaign pledge has so far amounted to "None in '07." Much of this (federal funding for embryonic stem cell research, for instance) is out of Democrats' control, given the Senate's supermajority rules and President Bush's veto pen; in some cases (having Medicare negotiate drug prices, for example), that's just as well. But even such relatively noncontroversial matters as increasing the minimum wage remain undone. Voters are starting to notice, and the coming weeks will be crucial for Democrats to put some actual accomplishments on the board.
On a matter that is within their control, it's still uncertain whether House Democrats will produce a lobbying and ethics reform package worthy of their campaign pledges to end the "culture of corruption." The key tests will be whether lawmakers require lobbyists to disclose the bundles of campaign cash they deliver (as the Senate version of the measure has done) and whether the House will create a more credible ethics process, including some kind of independent arm to assess and investigate ethics allegations.
On immigration, Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.) is right to bring to the floor last year's measure, which won the support of 23 Republicans. The clock is ticking on this incendiary topic, and the administration has not improved matters by pushing an unbalanced and punitive plan. If Mr. Bush is looking for a legacy issue beyond Iraq, this could be it, but he is, so far, blowing the chance.
On trade, an agreement that seems to clear the way for approval of trade pacts with Peru and Panama is a start, but only that. Much more important is the passage of deals with Colombia and South Korea, and extension of presidential trade negotiating authority, which is needed to complete a new global trade treaty. Congressional leaders should work with Mr. Bush to extend the authority -- not because they like or trust him but because doing so will be better for the economy in which they, too, have an important stake.

Most of us are aware that USCIS, taking a positive measure towards not losing EB visa numbers, set Jun 1, 2006 as PD of India/China for Aug and possibly Sep 2008. This is entirely based on approvable I485 applications processed upto Jul 8, 2008 (except some numbers are available for Counsler Processing of I485).
Recent trends indicates direct HARD LUD, a CRIS mail for "Card Production". So it seems that in coming two months no guessing for EB2 because soft LUDs will be rare.
Welcome Aug 2008 and I wish very good luck to approvable EB2 India/China folks.

If anyone one has cracked it, please share. Thanks in advance.

I did it through an attorney and captured about 5 months.
They did a photo copy of my entry/exit dates in the Passport and copy of all my previous I94 cards. Along with that they sent in a Letter asking USCIS for the recapture.
It was a H1 transfer and recapture at the same time. I got approved for 17 months ( 1 Year + 5months recapture). at that time, I was over 6 years without I140 approved.

Hello,
Need advise since I'm planning to get my H1 B stamped... On my 2nd visit on B1 Visa (Business) in 2005 I got an offer to complete my master's degree(sponsorship). I applied for a change of status and was approved. I completed my master's degree and filed for OPT which got approved and finally H1. I'm currently working for more than a year on H1 B visa. I was planning to get stamping done at Hyderabad, India.
Is it safe enough to get the visa stamped? And, do I need to take any additional documents to ensure that the visa gets stamped.... Please advise....

Some paras from Almost Everyone Lies, Often Seeing It as a Kindness (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/02/18/AR2007021800915.html).
The perjury trial of I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby goes to the jury this week. The case speaks to several issues -- how the Bush administration deals with critics of the war in Iraq, and the games that Washington's reporters and politicians play with each other. As far as the jury is concerned, however, the case is about only one thing: lying.
One particularly well-qualified witness on this subject was not called by either the prosecution or the defense, so today we cross-examine Robert Feldman ourselves. Feldman is a social psychologist at the University of Massachusetts who studies lying in everyday life, and his findings are just the kind of thing that Libby's lawyers could have pounced on.
Feldman's experiments show that stern-faced judicial proceedings about perjury are as remote from the realities of human behavior as President Bush is from the Nobel Peace Prize. For one thing, lying plays a more complex role in human relationships than the black-and-white legal view recognizes. It is also so commonplace in everyday life that putting people on trial for lying is somewhat like putting them on trial for breathing.
Experiments have found that ordinary people tell about two lies every 10 minutes, with some people getting in as many as a dozen falsehoods in that period. More interestingly -- and Libby might see this as the silver lining if he is found guilty -- Feldman also found that liars tend to be more popular than honest people. (Ever notice how popular politicians somehow change their minds on controversial issues such as the war in Iraq at the exact moment that public opinion on those issues changes?)

Hello.
I have lived 6 yrs here & became a U.S. Citizen last Sept. 2010. Last February 2011 i was diagnosed of Breast Cancer. It's been pretty rough living alone without any relatives around. My husband works oversea and he travels frequently, he can't change his job right now, this will be the source of our income to support my health situation. In the next two months my doctor told me to do another surgery on my breast. I did fine with my first surgery as my husband stay home for a couple of weeks while waiting his next project. I'am thinking if it possible for me to petition my knee to live with me in the U.S. as i will need a assistance with all therapy and with my 11 yr. daughter. I am from the Philippines.
Please advice.
Thank you.
