Immigration Lawyers Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
The January 2011 Visa Bulletin shows significant retrogression of family-based categories with priority dates falling back as much as one to three years. The 1st preference category (unmarried children of U.S. citizens) shows an increased wait from 5 years to 6 years. The 2A preference category (spouses and children of legal permanent residents) suffers the largest setback with an increase from 4 months to 3 years, while the 2B preference category (unmarried adult children of legal permanent residents) experiences an increase from 5 1/2 to 8 years. The 3rd preference category (married children of U.S. citizens) shows an increase from 8 1/2 years to 10 years. The 4th preference category (brothers and sisters of U.S. citizens) was the only family-based category unaffected by the retrogression, remaining at a 9 year wait.
Employment-based categories did not experience any retrogression and are as follows: EB-1 remains current for all countries; EB-2 remains current, except for India (May 2006) and China (June 2006); EB-3 is at Mar. 2005 for all countries, except for India (Feb. 2002), China (Dec. 2003), and Mexico (April 2003); EB-3 other workers is at April 2003 for all countries, except India (Feb. 2002); EB-4, religious workers, EB-5, and targeted employment areas and regional centers are all current.

Thanks for the suggestions Fred! I applied a bit more sharpening to the head, I think it's not so OOF looking now. I'll have a go at cloning out the twigs later, it looks a bit difficult but it could be fun trying.

Off Lately in this forum and thru my freinds I am hearing premiums are also getting delayed..
Even in My case Fedex has reached uscis on Jan 17 , for me and my family but checks have not yet got cleared..
my lawyer says , nowadays the delay is because vermont cases are getting transferred to Calisfornia center for H1 Extension ..
Not sure what is the truth...Just waiting for Premium H1 extension to get cleared soon...

The scanned the bar code on the fingerprinting notice and asked to verify the A#, dob etc. that popped up on the computer screen. I think the receipt number was there too.
Does any one remember if at the time of finger printing for 485, did they enter the Receipt Number, A# or both in their computer.
I am have some issues with multiple A#s and I need this information.
Please reply only if you are sure.

Hi,
I too have the same question. Isnt EAD a non-immigrant status unlike H1B? So, how can one apply for GC on a non-immigrant status? I might be wrong though.
>> Isn't EAD a non-immigrant status unlike H1B?
EAD is not a status. EAD is just Employment Authorization Document. I-485 pending (AoS Pending) is the status.
>> So, how can one apply for GC on a non-immigrant status?
GC can, also, be applied for someone who is not even in US. Kind of status in US has nothing to do with GC process, as long as one is in valid (authorized) status.

Hello,
I am on h1b visa (approved & stamped) and its expiring this Oct'10 (I-94 also expiring in Oct) and due for an extension but here's my problem.
Company A filed my petition in a wrong way in 2007 by showing the job title as "mechanical engineering position" though i was working as Analyst in IT. So if company A files my extension now how likely are my chances of getting my extension approved? as there was no amendment submitted by A for a change in my job title. The below are my options so would really appreciate if you all can suggest and share your thoughts?
1. Go for a H1B extension from Company A itself and if RFE/Denied, can i then proceed with a H1B transfer from Company B? Confused here in figuring out that if my extension is denied will i loose my status and am i eligible to file a new petition as a transfer from Company B?
2. Or directly go for a H1B transfer from a new Company B, this way will i have lesser risk in getting rejected?

On a separate note, If we have valid AP now and already applied for extension, if we get GC approval while in India , can we wait till we get new AP and reenter using new AP if somebody brings that or mail it?

Thanks. I am guessing the same.. but for my friend, his lawyer entered the Card valid start and end dates on the EAD card for this date field...
that is why I am looking for a confirmation.

Hi,
I took an infopass appt for EAD pending more than 90 days. Both my EAD and my wife's EAD is pending for more than 90 days. Should I take 2 different appointments or can we both go in the same appointment.
Thanks.
I was successful in getting information for me and my wife in the same appointment twice. But to be safe I will book another appointment. If the IO had a bad day he/she may reject to give infomation on your wife's case :)

Hello
I am working in the US on H1-B visa, and would like to start a company which would develop iphone applications which would have accompanying websites where people would register and pay a monthly service fee.
I have read the various forums and it appears that I can be a passive investor in the company and not assume any role or work for the company even in a volunteer fashion.
I would like to however fulfill my entrepreneurial dream and would like to take on the role on the CEO of the company. So, can I start the company in India (my country of birth) e take on the role of the CEO and then start a company over here as a passive investor and then do the leg work for expanding the business in US.
Please advise.
