I was responding to this statement :
"If the govt can lobby for nuke bill, why they cannot do it for techs?" This is a nonsense topic anyways .. deserves to be closed.
How nuke bill is related to SKIL bill......
Admin close this forum.

Our paralegal had advised as follows-
ONLINE CASE STATUS SYSTEM DELAYS
USCIS is experiencing delays of several weeks in entering new information to the online case status system on their public website. Even though a receipt may have been issued in a case, the online system may not accurately reflect the current status of a July Visa Bulletin adjustment case or a related application. The USCIS is reportedly working on the problem, but has not indicated when the information delays will be resolved.

Thanks for the advices. I was more worried about any negative issues on my current 485 if I block the payment on my second set of checks. I think USCIS also will be fined if the checks bounce. I called customer support and they told me that the money would not be refundable but you can withdraw your application by writing a letter.
If I do not block my checks my worry is that it might create duplicate cases.
Yes in my second set of application I did mention the reason why I am filing the second time
Hopefully their system will block the entry of my application

My AP was approved last week (Monday) still to get in mail.
Seems like AP takes a longer route to the mail box in USCIS... Mine is at NSC and my experience is that everything out of there is slower...
Anyways I am greatful that they approved it and its in mail ( fingers crossed )

I am one of the July 2nd filer, EB2 India, PD is April 2005. There is problem if you filed 485 at NSC but got a receipt# starting with WAC we must address it asap.
I called up NSC with my Receipt that starts with WAC as it was send to CSC by NSC that processed the application send me the first notice with RD 07/02/2007. I again got the second I-485 transfer notice in September with RD 09/26/2007 saying my case has been transferred back to NSC office as they have jurisdiction over it. The IO says as my application receipt# starts with WAC it will processed by the CSC processing dates that is dead at May 2006 rather than the NSC processing dates that is at 10th August 2007 making my 485 eligible for processing.
If we do not solve this problem we could be lingering in CSC for years.
If there has been cases where someone had I-485 Receipt# starting with WAC but got processed by NSC processing dates as it was filed there please come forward.
Looks like there has been some TSC approvals for EAC receipts but no news on NSC, anybody please post here.

Yes, ICICI bank do not allow more than 4 part pre-payments in a year. I am not sure if it is a calendar year. You can ask ICICI for the part pre-payment terms. When I inquired, they sent me a PDF file.
I had this issue because I wanted to pay-off my loan to avoid the increasing interest rate. Mine was floating. The officer who sold me the loan gave some misguiding concept "interest rate will go down when the economy is booming". But the reverse happened after I took the loan. I had a floating rate of 7% in Sept 2004. But within a year and half it almost crossed 12.5%.
I will try to find the email that ICICI sent regarding the part pre-payments terms.
Normally when the economy is booming, inflation will go up and central bank will increase the interest rate to contain that. The opposite will happen when the economy is going down

HI, I am new to this forum, so pardon me if my question is an old one. Please direct me to the correct thread in that case.
I am currently working on my EAD for past years since July fiasco. I have over 12 years of experience. My employer who originally filed for my GC, had filed it for EB3 since then I did not meet the requirements for EB2. (I do not have a master's degree)
I have 12+ years of experience now and am working for a big pharma company on my EAD since. I filed for AC21 and left my original employer three years back and since then I have been working for the same company as a senior technical Lead.
I do not have a valid H1-B any longer. Is it possible for me to do EB3 to EB2 porting. What are the requirements and would I need my current company to file for me, or can I do it on my own through lawyer?
Thanks,
PagalForGC

I thought about it again and think everyone has the right to post on forum as much as you. If IV does not like it, they will delete it. If you do not like a thread do not read it. Who is forcing you to read a thread? If you want to read something specific to your interest, there is a nice website I found recently. It is called 'Google'. All you have to do is type a keyword and Google will give you back thousands of websites of your interest for free. Isn't this amazing?

Bachelors+5yrs is also fine for EB2----- As per my lawyer at the time of my filing....EB2 requires either MS or BS+yrs.....
I agree with the earlier post....look at how it was advertized.....in my case, we did only MS since I had MS and did not have 5 yrs then...so the advertisement said only MS as requirement....
If your advertisement does not require MS, then this should be solved by a simple letter explaining the same......If by mistake it says only MS then the RFE is right in asking for MS certificate....however if the advertisement said either MS or BS+5 yrs ...you are covered......
Another important question is did you have 5 yrs when your labor was filed...becos that justifies ur EB2.....
Thanks....

My I140 is transfered to TSC and so my attorney sent I-485/ I-765/ I-131 to TX... I was actually worried if this is okay -- I thought all I-485 no matter what have to be sent to NSC...
My attorney gave me FedEx tracking number and it shows it's delivered to Garland, TX and signed by B. Thomas. Is anybody familiar with this name? I thought TSC is in Msquite, TX and I am worried if my application has been sent to a wrong address... I sent all of my application in July 24th...
Thanks for any comments!
If it has to be transferred Texas why my employer did this * intentionally * to Nebraska :mad:
huh.. hopefully it will not delay my receipt date. I am planning to travel abroad and waiting for the 485 receipt notice..
Thanks for your answers. Really appreciated :)

I E-filed my EAD application and sent the supporting documentation to the location on the confirmation page. To day I see the following notice:
"We attempted to deliver your item at 1:51 PM on June 11, 2008 in MESQUITE, TX 75185 and a notice was left. It can be redelivered or picked up at the Post Office. If the item is unclaimed, it will be returned to the sender. Information, if available, is updated every evening. Please check again later."
Is there something I can do to resolve this?
I sent the application to the following address:
USCIS TEXAS SERVICE CENTER
Atten: E-File I-765 PO BOX: 852401
MESQUITE, TX 75185
Dont worry that is the common message for USCIS PO Box...Your mail will be @USCIS

Well it's true and proved here, the ideal mind is an EVIL mind. When the country was split into two in 1947, we still don't have the peace, what do you expect with so many states spiting into countries. Today we see states spiting, just to gain power and make money for the corrupt politicians. For the selfish gains you want to country to split???? Be a Indian..and stop wasting your time.

1a) Both translated and original are needed and might be sufficient. As of my knowledge, they are issuing them in local language and English currently in my native place.
1b) DOB Cert by itself from the Consul's office will not be sufficient.
1c) Every 485 applicant needs DOB certificate. So your wife does.
3a) It depends on a variety of things like if you had chicken pox before or not. If you had been to school in US and have any immunization record / some sort of health record you submitted to them when you came in, the doctor might accept it. AFAIK, It is a 1 hr process how ever appointments might be 2 weeks away :)
3b) Tests are valid for one year.
