Saurav,
I also noticed the same. On 11/25, there was a new LUD on my case. But again on 11/27 I had new LUD and this time I received a email from USCIS that my card has been ordered. But my wife's status is as it is, her LUD is still 11/25.
Hope this helps.

Well if it is clearly mentioned in the offer letter that Employer will cover the GC cost, then isnt the employer supposed to pay for it irrespective of when the labor was filed. It was filed in 2006.
Btw, i am on AOS if that is what was meant from my legal status..
Thanks for all the responses to my thread so far..
The employer can change the contents of the offer, as long as it does not affect the job functions. GC is just a by-product of the job offer. Since you no longer work for the employer, you do not have any basis for recouping the costs. If you are in AOS status, it requires that there by an underlying immigrant petition by an employer. In your case, the employer on your petition no longer employs you, and therefore, if you go by the book, you are not in legal status. Rather than try to get money from your old employer, I'd suggest that you look for an employer who will take over your GC process. If you keep pestering your prior employer, they can revoke your I-140, which then invalidates your EAD and your I-485 application. So tread with care.

1) 140 MUST be approved for your 5-26-01 application with your old company.
2) With your new company, get your LC approved under PERM
3) While applying for 140 with your new company, use your old company's 140 to port your 5-26-01 priority date.
Good Luck.
PS: Murthy version is reliable compared to Khanna, it is better to apply for porting during 140 stage rather than 485 stage.
Hi Friends My lc approved under 245i 05-26-01 world wide,my question is if I file perm with new company and if Ican get 140 approved can I use my old priority lc number and apply for 485.PLEASE HELP THANKYOU.

What would we do without you...
The U.S. Department of State (DOS) Visa Bulletin for January 2008 contains more bad news for Indian nationals in the EB2 category. The cutoff date for EB2, India, retrogressed by two additional years, to January 1, 2000. Moreover, the prediction contained in the Visa Bulletin for EB2, India, is that the annual limit could be reached within the next few months. If this occurs, the category will become "unavailable" for the remainder of the fiscal year.
The explanation for this is simply that demand for visa numbers by the USCIS for EB2, India, adjustment-of-status cases far exceeds supply
EB3 cutoff dates either remained unchanged or moved slightly forward, depending upon country of chargeability. The January Visa Bulletin cutoff dates become effective on January 1, 2008. Until that time, the December 2007 Visa Bulletin cutoff dates remain valid.
thanks

So you are good to go. This means, when the company applied for your H1, they also applied for your wife's extension using form I-539.
When your wife presents the I-797 in her name, a new I-94 will be given upto 12/25/2009.
There are few cases, where out of ignorance or negligence, they do not apply I-539 while applying for H1, thereby jeopardising h4 status.
In your case, it has been done right. so no worries.

and got approval notice on 28th Nov.2007 with 1 Yr extension.
Actually based on December bulletin my attorney asked for 3 yrs. but got 1 yr. as in Nov my PD is current.
Off-course on 30th my I485 is approved.
So there is no doubt your attorney is so wrong.......

Hi guys My I140 filed in TEXAS case status online says request for additional information was mailed, I haven't received mail yet, I want to go ahead and collect all the documents required so i can reply immediately as soon as we receive RFE mail,
can you guys tell usually what kind of information is requested in EB3 cases.
RFEs are mostly about ability to pay and your educational qualifications. If your company has more than one 140 pending they may ask your company to prove that they have ability to pay for all applications simultaneously. I think you should be good as long as your company satisfies one of the three criteria in yates memo for ability to pay. You should be good if you have w2s for all the years since LC filing date with amount more than the proferred wage. Again these rules apply for str8forward cases.
Arrival of physical notice depends on how quick they send out from mail room. I would advise you to be on the top of the issue with your employer/attorneys office because of the flexible times for response rule. Earlier every RFE used to get 12 week now the USCIS determines how much time you get for responding. Now that these immi lawyers are busy with 485s they may respond slow .. Good luck with your process

there was a thread yesterday discussing this news. It is indeed welcome news. Atleast now USCIS should concentrate on FIFO approvals. There are just too many 2003/4/5 EB-2I applicants waiting in line when 2006 applicants got approved in a frenzy last couple of months...what a cruel joke! and for EB-3I, this news may reveal the total number of cases pending. Nobody seemed to know the accurate count...

Thank you all for your valuable input. I have a follow up question :
Will I be breaking any laws if I just do voluntary marketing and promotional work for my company in India.
Here is the situation :
My clients will be in USA and they will be paying my company in India. I will be on the board of the company , and will be doing voluntary marketing and promotional work for the company while residing in USA.
Thank you for your time.
Your H-1b must be sponsored by a US company. H-1b terms require you to gainfully work only for that employer. As long as your US tax returns do not show any other source of income and show you have been working fulltime for your sponsoring employer, you should be fine.
They do not bother with foreign wages or what you do with your free time ( as long as it inot a second job).

I wanted to share this with all of you. This is my attorney & friends (who is American) thoughtful response to a thread below :-
************************************************** *********
Donna:
What is the source of your facts about immigrants?? Immigrants also pay A LOT into the
system
MOST "IMMIGRANTS" AS YOU SO LOVINGLY CALL US, ARE LAWFULLY IN
THE UNITED STATES (BELIEVE IT OR NOT!!!) AND THEY ALL WORK A LOT
HARDER THAN MANY AMERICANS ARE WILLING TO WORK!!!!
MANY MANY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ARE PAID INTO THE SYSTEM BY
THEM EACH YEAR. THOSE HERE ILLEGALLY NEVER HAD, AND NEVER WILL
HAVE THE RIGHT, TO GET ANY OF THE MONEY BADK - EVEN WHEN THEY
HAVE REFUNDS DUE THEM. THE IRS JUST K E E P S IT F O R E V E R AND
IT, HOPEFULLY, GOES TO AMERICANS WHO ARE NOT IMMIGRANTS!!!
GREEN CARD HOLDERS (ALSO "IMMIGRANTS") HAVE WORKED HARDER THAN
AMERICANS DO - AS I MENTIONED AND THEY ARE CLEARLY ENTITLED TO GET
THE BENEFITS THEY HAVE EARNED.
DO YOU FOR ONE MOMENT THINK THAT THE SSA WILL GIVE THE ILLEGAL
IMMIGRANT ANY SOCIAL SECURITY?!!????
NEVER HAPPEN - NEVER HAS HAPPENED!!!! IF THEY FALSIFY INFO TO ANY
GOVERNMENT AGENCY - THEY WILL NECESSARILY GET CAUGHT GO STRAIGHT
TO FEDERAL PRISON FOR AT LEAST 2 YEARS AND THEN GET DEPORED. THIS HAS
BEEN THE LAW FOR DECADES AND IT IS ENFORCED!!!!
EVEN THE LEGAL IMMIGRANTS HAVE TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT GETTING THE
SSA THAT IS DUE THEM. THEY GET CHEATED BY THE SSA EVEN MORE THAN
US CITIZENS DO IN THE NORMAL COURSE OF SSA DAILY STEALING OPERATIONS
- IF THEY LEAVE THE COUNTRY FOR TOO LONG (FOR EXAMPLE IF A PARENT GETS
SICK AND THEY HAVE TO GO AND TAKE CARE) THEY JUST L O O S E ALL
THEIR BENEFITS PERMANENTLY - EVEN THOUGH THEY MAY HAVE BEEN BEEN
HERE AND WORKED FOR MORE YEARS THAN MOST AMERICANS DO. THIS
KIND OF DISCRIMINATORY CONDUCT BY GOVERNMENT AGAINST LAWEUL
PERMANENT RESIDENTS HAVE CONSISTENTLY BEEN HELD TO BE CONSTITUTIONAL
BY THE SUPREME COURT EVEN EVEN THOUGH IT IS CLEARLY UNFAIR. THESE
BENEFITS CAN BE REFUSED VERY EASILY FOR THE LEGAL RESIDENTS WHO
WORKED HAS DOUBLE AND TRIPLE JOBS FOR FIFTY OR MORE YEARS.
WHO BENEFITS FROM THIS? YOU GIVE THE ANSWER!!!
LIGHTEN UP AND LEARN THE REAL FACTS.
ALL IMMIGRANTS ARE NOT ILLEGAL. IN FACT, MOST IMMIGRANTS ARE
LEGAL AND WORK THREE AND FOUR JOBS - DO YOU WANT TO WORK SO
HARD?? HE..- NO!!!!!
PASS THIS ON TO ALL THE PEOPLE YOU KNOW SO THAT THEY CAN BE
EDUCATED ABOUT ANOTHER MORE FACTUAL ASPECT OF THE MATTER.
THANK YOU, DONNA.

Subject: Social Security Insult
This is an insult and a kick in the butt to all of us...
Get mad and pass it on - I don't know how, but maybe some good
will come of this travesty.
If the immigrant is over 65, they can apply for SSI and Medicaid and get
more than a woman on Social Security, who worked from 1944 until 2004.
She is only getting $791 per month because she was born in 1924 and
there's a 'catch 22'.
It is interesting that the federal government provides a single refugee
with a monthly allowance of $1,890. Each can also obtain an
additional $580 in social assistance, for a total of $2,470 a month.
This compares to a single pensioner, who after contributing to
the growth and development of America for 40 to 50 years, can only
receive a monthly maximum of $1,012 in old age pension and
Guaranteed Income Supplement.
Maybe our pensioners should apply as refugees!
Consider sending this to all your American friends, so we can all be
ticked off and maybe get the refugees cut back to $1,012 and the
pensioners up to $2,470. Then we can enjoy some of the money we were
forced to submit to the Government over the last 40 or 50 or 60 years.
Please forward to every American to expose what our elected politicians
have been doing over the past 11 years - to the over-taxed American.

can someone tell me (PM if you dont want it on a pubic board) what went wrong with SKIL Bill last year? Where did it fail (senate/house?) did it just get dropped, or went up for vote and did not make it?
Googling around, and am not able to find anything...
Nothing went wrong with SKIL bill. Neither did SKIL bill fail. We computer programmers think that the world is built around Boolean logic 1/0, true/false, pass/fail, right/wrong. In politics most of the stuff is "in-between".
Every year many bills get introduced and only a small faction (less than 2%) are taken up for discussion/vote in the congress. Some bills pass in one house and are not taken up in the second house of the congress. Some bill pass both houses but they do not go to conference committee. A bill could be termed as “failed” if it has been voted down a majority vote in at least one house of the congress.
Last year (just like this year) key lawmakers wanted to pass a comprehensive immigration reform bill which means, everything related to immigration subject will be done in one bill. So SKIL bill was introduced but it could not be scheduled for discussion and vote in the congress. ‘Introducing” a bill simply means that a bill was registered with the one house of the congress and a bill number was allocated to that bill, that’s it. It is then the job of the majority leader in the Senate and Speaker of the House to put the bill in the calendar/schedule for discussions and, up or down vote. SKIL bill was never put on the schedule of either of the two chambers of the congress. Most articles suggested that if the SKIL bill was put on schedule all by itself, this bill would have easily passed with the majority vote. But key lawmakers did not want a separate bill for each category. They want a comprehensive bill which includes reforming employment based, nurses, family based, diversity lottery, refuges, undocumented and anything “immigration” under the sun. That is why SKIL was never discussed and voted on the floor of the congress. SKIL bill was made of the comprehensive immigration bill S.2611 that passed the Senate last year. So SKIL bill was passed by the Senate. Then there were drastic differences between the House and Senate version of the immigration bill. House version of the immigration bill border wall and enforcement only bill and House majority leadership was not ready to do any negotiations on the bill passed by the Senate. By July-August of 2006, Republican leadership decided to use “immigration” as an election platform to energize their base. So they did not want to take up a bill to fix the problem. Republican leadership in the House wanted the issue to be there so that they would go back to their base and scare voters with the “illegal alien” election platform. So in the end nothing happened. After the elections, after Republicans lost the majority in the House and the Senate, Republicans lost the need/leadership to address the immigration issue and Democrats announced to address this in the 110th Congress so that they could take up the credit for solving the problem. So for all practical purposes, nothing actually happened on immigration issue or SKIL bill.
This year too, SKIL bill is very unlikely to go anywhere all by itself. We all have to wait for the compressive immigration reform bill to pass or die. No one knows by when comprehensive bill could be considered as dead this year. Several times I have talked with my congressman’s office and they have told me that SKIL could be considered by itself only if key lawmakers know that comprehensive immigration bill is no longer possible. They never fail to add that this is a pure speculation and no one can predict how it will all unroll and we just have to wait for the things to happen in next few months. Sometimes they have also said that if comprehensive bill fails, there may not be any bill till 2009. My congressman’s office did say that we should continue to talk to other lawmakers to tell them about our problems and a need for an immigration bill.
Hope this answers your question.

I dont know what to do with my original green card one (whether to file one more 485 or not)
Gurus help me with your knowlege which option i have to choose
1. withdraw the 485 (filed with substituion labor) and file new 485 with the original one
2. file one more 485
3. wait for the substituion labor 140 to be approved and transfer priority date and category?
:confused:
You could file CP for one and continue with AOS for another and see which one comes out successful sooner. Theoretically you could have any number of applications for a green card; but for simlicity's sake (USCIS not yours) it is always wise to stick to one.
But confirm with you lawyer; this is not legal advice.

1. withdraw the 485 (filed with substituion labor) and file new 485 with the original one
2. file one more 485
3. wait for the substituion labor 140 to be approved and transfer priority date and category?
:confused:
You could file CP for one and continue with AOS for another and see which one comes out successful sooner. Theoretically you could have any number of applications for a green card; but for simlicity's sake (USCIS not yours) it is always wise to stick to one.
But confirm with you lawyer; this is not legal advice.
Regards.

Yes i did see a LUD on the uscis website for my 485 a couple of weeks back.
So i guess the LUD stuff still works irrespective of the "chimps" using "champs".

"approvable" is the right term.
I always thought that your I-140 *has to be* approved before you can change jobs with the AC21 rule... no?
