    Hi All,

    I got the CPO on Sep 7, 2010. But we did not get any email about dependent application. Yesterday, I just called the customer service and spoke with level 2 officer to confirm about our cases. According to him my application is still pending with the officer and no decision has been made. I am really concerned that still no approvals. Moreover, I can not even open a SR because my status shows CPO. Btw I had my FP done on Sep 3, 2010.

    First of all when it is visa information it is just that!
    Please see answers below

    Hi Friends,
    I am in the process of filling I-485 form and got the following question, can you please help?

    My stamped visa expired 1 year back and I am currently with H1B approval notice. In the 2nd page of I-485 form, under Part 3. Processing Information, I am wondering what I need to fill for the following columns.

    1. Nonimmigrant visa number: Is this the EAC number of my current I797 or the visa number from my expired visa?. If it is from the expired visa, there are multiple numbers in the visa stamp, which one is the visa number?

    ------> The figures in red, not the control number on your
    visa stamp.

    2.Consulate where visa was issued: Is it the name of the consulate issued my last visa or Department?

    ------> If it was issued at a consulate state that, if
    department mention department.


    3.Date visa isssued: Is this is the date of last visa issued or the approval date of my current I797

    -----> Again the one on your visa stamp.


    Thanks advance for all your valuable suggestions.

    In my opinion, as they are running with these immigration related bills despite the tight schedule and limited time they have on their hands before they go on recess (for election), the chances (to pass these bills) have to be decently high. Otherwise, I doubt if they would put so much time and effort if they know for sure this would fail.

    However, as Pappu pointed out, the success relies a lot on we guys calling everyone on the list to seek their support and counter numberusa or similar groups' attempt to shoot these bills down.

    So, lets call - PLEASE.

    Folks,

    I would like to run a questions by you guys/gals. I am getting ready to file my I-485 application. My lawyer requested that I find all copies of my I-20, OPT EAD, H1-B's etc. My question is do we have to submit copies of I-20, and OPT EAD for the Adjustment of status (I-485) stage ? Please let me know what you think ?

    I-20 is from a university that accept students in the US. The F1 student visa is issued based on the I-20.
    OPT EAD - Is one year of practical training that is allowed after graduation
    It would help if someone can put a list of all documents needed for 485 filing on this thread to help all such questions.

    Hi All,
    I received the CPO email yesterday.My case details are PD : Dec 2004, 485 RD : Aug 6th 2007(I140 Filed concurrently),EB2 India.140 was approved on Tuesday.

    I140 was pending from 2007.When my attorney followed up in feb this year,USCIS gave the standard reply of waiting for 6months.After that they said,they will update in 10 days.They didn't update even after that and then i moved it to premium processing on Sept 28th.

    Took 2 info passes in Septembter(regd i140 mainly).First one was not of much help though the officer told my 485 is assigned to IO on Sept 8th.Second time it was different officer and she was very helpful.Tried looking why my 140 is getting delayed but she said ,if she opens my file then 485 file will go back to review queue as it is currently being reviewed by Sept 18th.So she didn't recommend doing that.I didn't open any SR after my first experience of 6 months waiting(without an result!!!)

    Before 485 approval day(i.e Tuesday) i called IO TSC Center but he doesn't know anything when i mentioned that my PD is Dec 2004 & that my case is current from last month.,he told my PD is the RD of 485.I thought no point in arguing with him and hung up.After that i was preparing to send mails to Senator but got the approval before that.


    Anyway,happy that it finally got approved .I am waiting on my wife's approval thought

    Let us call rumors as pure rumors, even if they are from individuals here on IV or from aila until the official agency release their report.

    Let us step back a bit and analyse it with just common sense.

    USCIS and whatever that other agency is, is not a fool to release a july bulletin and make everybody current. If they have made all categories current in the hope that they want to utilize all visa numbers then this is the height of stupidity. If that was their intent, they could have moved dates 2-3 months each month starting july till September.

    They should have prepared themselves for the flood of applications starting july 1st, and that is the reason for suspending the premium processing.

    Make PD's current and then goingback in just couple of weeks doesn't make sense at all.
    If someone has done this in haste then i doubt the overal integrity of this organization and its continuity.

    When i started the rumor of possible mid july retrogression, then that was based on the flood of applications that would go by july 2nd week. I am surprised that people are now talking monday or tuesday retrogression and a possible fresh bulleting from USCIS.

    Who would know the fresh july bulletin updates from USCIS other than USCIS and why would they leak that information before hand?
    Why should we beleive aila?

    Do an independent and individual assesment of this issue and go have a beer for the weekend.

    congrats and thanks to those grassroot IV members who came up with this campaign. To be honest, I did not think that this would as successful as it turned out.

    Even though I was not affected by the July bulletin fiasco (my labor is stuck in BEC for the past 5 years), I was pissed when the USCIS pulled the rug from underneath.

    But, what a way to protest! Hats off to all those who participated!!! and a big salute to the The Mahatma:)

    Landed in this country on Aug-16-1997 for Masters. Today myself and my wife both got CPO mail/text message. Thanks IV community and good luck to all. I will be doing my part to make this system better!!!

    Details:

    PD: 04 Jan 2006, EB2 I
    RD: 07 Jul 2007, TSC (I-140 was with NSC, but the attorney sent it to TSC in the july 2007 fiasco)
    ND: 27 Aug 2007, NSC

    Didn't do anything in 2008 and decided to do everything possible this time around.
    Aug 3 - Primary I-485 SR,
    Aug 5- Primary EAD SR,
    Contacted Congress Woman on Aug 9 - Didn't get any useful info. I think, being in bay area, they might have been flooded with these requests.
    Aug 10 - Opened an Infopass for Aug 18
    Aug 16, 8:30 am - Dependent SR
    Aug 16, 9:30 am - Called the customer service for primary's status - got the standard response that they sent a mail (which i didn't get) asking me to wait for 60 days.
    Aug 16, 10:15 am - Wife called me to inform the good news, the online status change.
    Aug 16, 10:18 am - got the text message (which just said "check your status online").
    Aug 16: Got the CPO mail (time stamped 10:18am)

    Guys (and Gals), Hang in there and you will have your independence soon.

    Regards,
    Yet Another Greencard Wait (not anymore :)

    One question to all the smart people on this forum:
    In the old system, if EB1, Eb2 and EB3 ROW are current then "all" unused visa from all the EB category be given to which category first:
    a) EB1 Non Row
    b) Eb2 Non Row
    c) Eb3 Non Row
    d) None of the above

    Now second part of the question is :
    If that category already has enough people in line, will the spillover to the next category will take place:
    a) Yes
    b) No

    Not saying I am smart, far from it (otherwise, I probably would have been eligible for citizenship by now) but USCIS seemed to have given it to the oldest in the line regardless of the category.

    Now long awaited Feb 08 bulletin is out and the dates are as expected. It is time for all IVans (including guests) to help IV to succeed in the campaign. Focus your energy, spread the word, make others do the same - IV will help us succeed.

    Should your address showing up on your w2 and pay stub be matching with the address of your parent company that filed your LC for Permanent Residence? My parent company that filed for my GC is in MI and so my Labor was also filed from there and currently I am working in IL and have been filing tax return for the state of IL for the last 3 years. The addres that shows up on my pay stub and w2 is for the state of IL. As my I485 is already filed so would it matter at the time of adudication of I485 about this address issue?

    I thought he might say something stupid about the Hindu Prayer disruption in Senate yesterday. However he didn't bring it up. But the way it's been going his "faux pas" (anti-Italian remarks during Italian parade in Little Italy, anti-Latino, anti-Indian and anti-Chinese remarks such as "socio-ethnic interest groups", "foriegn" and "cheap labor", "Communist China" and ofcourse the 7000 lepers in 3 years...) are all building up and sooner or later something will give.
    I don't think anything would give as a big part of america can relate to all this. At the most CNN may fire him but a number of other stations would be ready to pick him up. Last thing a broadcaster wants is for people to ignore him/her. Thanks to us that is not going to be a problem for Dear Lou, and so a number of stations would love to have him just for that.

    Everyone knows that increasing green card numbers will be best solution. In that also if we ask too much we may not get anything. Double the number of annual Gc plus exclude dependents will be enough for reducing retrogession but that may not eliminate. But waiting period of 2 to 3 years can be reasonable for most people. I am sure one more chance will come for increasing H1b numbers. That time we can try for GC increase also.

    But I am supporting the flower Campaign for protesting the VB mess up though it will not solve the problem

    You seem to be pretty good at analyzing faults in others' ideas and thoughts . What are your suggestions to acheive releif from retrogression.

    Smitha,
    You can suggest too ...
