I've been having sleepless nights ever since a cut off date of May 15th got in the fray.
Here's my case -
I140 sent to USCIS on June 06th (They should have received it on June 07th)
I have not reveived a receipt date yet.
What would the receipt date for my application be -
June 7th when USCIS receives the application
or
Some later date when my application goes into the system
Now assuming that a new cut off date of June 19th is established, would my I140 be treated as pending on June 19th? Or only those applications will be treated as pending that have a receipt date prior to June 19th.
Gurus please enlighten and help me sleep.

It is better you do it online and mention that you have pending 485 in NSC. I don't think Fl has anything to do with your place of sending.
Once you file online you can get a print out of it for your reference after you pay and USCIS will send you a receipt notice stating that they received your AP request. If they need any further evidence they would send a letter to do the same. Till then just sit back and check online.
I filed mine online and they sent me a notice saying that they would require my latest passport size photo, which I sent two weeks back and now I can see that it is in process when I check online.

It is good to know that state chapters are semi internet. I beg to differ with you regarding "feeling that you are in trouble". Expecting people to feel that they are in trouble by telling them so will never work. If someone thinks they are in trouble they would work out the solution on their own, they will not sit and wait for someone to help. This is a flawed assumption.
Anyways I am going to join the IV chapter to share more of my ideas to help this cause. Already sent a PM to chanduv23
State boards are kind of semi internet usgae only (Though not forum...). But those also do not make passive ones come ahead. So real issue is not the type of meet, the first real issue is feeling that you are in trouble..and 2nd is to stand up for fighting against that. And 3rd.. yes through IV we will be able to do this and so become active.

I really take exception to that comment. I have 2 Masters degrees (one from the US)...unfortunately they are not in Engineering/Science. What people don't seem to realize is that it is extemely difficult to get an H1-B if you are from a Humanities/Liberal Arts background. I'm a teacher and there are jobs in my field...the only problem is that school districts/community colleges/universities are unwilling to sponsor H1-Bs!

I think this an interesting discussion in the forum in a long long time. Allow me to jump in.
1. For those with labor stuck in BEC's, file PERM (2 months) +I-140 Premium Processing (10 days). Get a three years extension and move on to a new job. A new job always involve new challenges and learning is an excellent way to channel your energies. Point being there is a way out of the mess !!!
For others invoke AC-21 in I-485 stages.
2. Studying is another very good idea. What you study should be your personal decision. Doing MBA, or Acquiring new technical skill at local Universtiy or certifications (CCNA/CCIE/PMP). There are always things to learn and a good way to advance your career without GC.
3. For non-working spouses there is very little they can do, but Non-Profits is way to start and see if you can get an H1B later from the same or a new employer.
In nutshell you can cope up with this frustration by taking control of things that you can !!! Do not let this mess affect you more that what it should be.
For the rest let's help IV in any way we can. Have a good weekend.

The DOS after consulting with attorneys and the Congress has concluded that EB visa numbers should spill over horizontally rather than vertically. Relevent legal clauses addressing this issue were posted by IV members yesterday. DOS now admits it's previous interpretation of vertical spill over (excess visas going to EB-3 ROW) was wrong. Can it be challenged or reversed?, Of course possible but very unlikely to happen in the near future in the next several months.
All said and done, I'll say vdlrao calculations with (sumagiri correction:) look credible.
Can you please post a link?

I disagree. I would expect a person to convey that they are not officially open despite the doors being open. I agree its not nice on customers part to enter before the office is officially open, but that does not mean the officer just threatens a countryman.
We should learn to respect our countrymen/women first. If I were to try to enter a business which is closed but doors are open, I can tell that someone would tell me that same verbally!
You took the words out of my mouth dude.. Lack of respect for fellow indians is something that I have noticed on several situations when I try to make friends with people especially Indians. Some, take things for granted.
Now I cannot blame them as people's behavior is driven by past experiences with fellows.. may be they suspect every other person as one of those pyramid schemes guys.. not sure.. I am far far away from those things though.
I have to tell you one thing, when ever I smiled at folks, they did return one except few who look the other way.. don't worry..keep smiling guys.. after all it costs nothing..

As so many members have posted there is no such thing as H1 transfer. If OP continued to work for employer# 2 without joining employer X that is fine as long as OP's employer 2 did not revoke the H1 petition. So OP should be fine , all he has to do is point that he did not accept employer X offer and decided to continue with current employer (i.e. #2) and his work with employer 2 was authorized based on the continued validity of h1 petition of employer 2. Now I saw that OP mentioned somewhere that he used EAD when his H1 with employer 2 expired. This could be a potential reason for the RFE. Here's my take on it:
When OP's H1 ultimately expired there were two possible work authorizations which OP could have used : Join the employer X on H1 since that employer did not revoke the h1 petition even though he did not join them OR used EAD with either employer 2 or employer X. The OP got this RFE for I-485. If you are doing AOS from H1 the burden is on you to prove that even while your I-485 is pending you have not engaged in unauthorized work. I just feel that the IO is doing an extensive scrutiny of the OP's application and trying to make sure that OP did not engage in unauthorized work at point.
In any case the OP should get a good lawyer.

There is a possibility that
- approval notice might be lost in mail
- uscis misplaced her file
Check with uscis what happened to her application for transfer and you might have to contact attorney depending on uscis' answer.
Thanks for your reply, zico123. I checked the online status and it shows the case is still pending. That doesn't matter. She has a valid status now. The question is that how long she can work for the new company B while the application is pending? Thanks.

needhelp! I have never met you but from seeing your effort in the fund drive I know you motivate people.
Keep up the good work, with time your state chapter will be one of the best.
Shame on those who RSVPed and didn't show.
Our current situation is dire. Even a back of the envelop calculation of wait times for a lot of us seems unreal. Being inactive in the only organization that speaks in our voice is just not being smart. We cannot let laziness take over and live in denial of the immigration mess.
For the members who do not want to volunteer for IV activities, the least you can do is contribute to the IV funds.

Great!
With this info, your attorney can easily demonstrate that you were authorized to work for "Employer 2" at all times since last entry in the USA until date of filing for I-485.
There is nothing to worry about, IMHO.
Good Luck.
Thats what people need to understand that if u are doing AOS from H1 then you have to make sure that 1) Either you continue to use H1 with the proper employer or 2) If you decide to use EAD that you update the I-9 form properly with respective employers. You cannot involve into unauthorized work like say your h1 expired with current employer and you did not update your I-9 form to use EAD and say 4 months down the road you put in the new I-9 form with EAD info. Those 4 months of work would be considered unauthorized and yes it will impact your I-485.

My GC filing company is not a non profit institution still my labor took 2 months and I 140 took less than 3 months.
Hello All,
I was reading the posts, I somehow believe there are some variations among EB2 categories, of what we all have been calling I,II or three.
It is not not primarily based on salary only, I believe, it has more to do with the nature of your job, job title, size of the company, type of company, for profit or non-profit.
My wife is a University professor, applied for our GC, EB2 India PD date august2007. We got our labor approved in a less that 2 months, we got our I40 cleared in 5 months, ( applied in January 08 got approved in June).
I believe , we are able to move so fast in this process was mainly because the type of company she works for, in this case the non profit institution.
Now at this point in time, I would like to ask all the gurus, are the dates going to move fast in next few months?
Thanks
Thanks

Jaime, your thought of having one more rally in Silicon Valley is a good one but again you are going to have the same crowd..!!
People in neighbouring states of DC did not make it , you tthink they will make it all the way to west coast! very doubtful!!
We should aim at bringing in more people to this family as possible..
Looks like a simultaneous rally on a weekend will be very effective!
And this time for the rally we will carry one one slogan banners
'SHORTEN THE WAIT FOR LEGAL IMMIGRANTS' or something similar!
just a thought!

They hushed up and approved my EAD in 20 days. Why ???? 'cos So they don't hit Jun'30 and give 2 years. They wanted to milk another 680 from me so they hushed up and sent me the 1 year EAD in 20 days.
I never imagined that the journey to GC would be such hard, and I have to give my whole life following these notices and EADs and what not. USCIS cannot approve my GC for years and years but now abrubptly they approved my EAD in less than 15 days, when I was expecting to get 2 years extension. My EAD app. was sent out on june 9th and my lawyer told me that they saw approval from yesterday 6/26 (wow 16 days including shipping!!!). USCIS always has hidden agenda, and everybody can tell that it is just money, which leads to such decisions. No body would forget last years july fiasco when they hushed up GC visa numbers for rendering people not to apply before fee hike. The present EAD issues everyone is reporting here is another fiasco. I wonder if there would be barrage of lawsuits for EAD fiasco as we saw last year for july fiasco. Now I understand why USCIS gave themselves time till 30th june, otherwise why wouldn't they make 2 year EADs effective right from the day of announcement in early week of june. Smart move!
Oh well this is what we have to face till we get that "Gone Card"! Day by day my patience is losing. Is it worth all this trouble?

No one will be on our side other than ourselves. Why should others(US business, political, people) should be behind our goals. They do not have much to gain from it. Our voice will be heard, but will not be considered unless the so called others have some facts and figures. Those facts and figures should make them feel that their counrty would lose to competetors in near future. It will take time.
Get support from whom? The same corporations that want to outsource jobs to low cost countries AND also lobby for H1B increase, again to keep wages low and all this to increase their bottom line. We need to re think our strategy and get it straight as to who is on our side and who is not.
