Guys,
Thanks a lot for the response.
I was finally able to get a doctors appointment on July 24th.
Now comes the tricky part:
Is the varicella vaccine required ? I have not had chicken pox as a child. The blood work showed that I need a chicken pox vaccine.
I went to the county health department today , and they gave me shots for tetanus, MMR, PPD, and one shot for varicella. They said that I have to come back in 30 days for another shot of varicella.
I am not sure what my doctor will say to this when I meet him on July 24th. Also, is it possible for the doctor to provide an I-693 with a statement that the varicella shot will be completed later ?
Thanks a lot for the response.

Thanks for the info. I still have a few doubts.
For 1. I will be having the marriage certificate at the time of filing, which will be in July. That time my spouse will be in India, as she will apply for her H4 and then come (latest by August). What I wanted to know is that if my PD is NOV 2006, doesn't that make me current. I know people are saying that visa numbers may not be availabe in Sep, but if all PD are current till June 2007, and if my wife will get my PD, what difference does it make if she files in Aug or Dec 2007. What will happen in Dec that will not let her file I-485. I am meeting my attorney next week, but with the pathetic interview scheduling system, it would be good to know so I can get an earlier date for her.
The priority dates are current right now and anybody with approved labor can file 485 (concurrently with 140 if that is not approved/filed). Your priority date is Nov 06, so you can file now, but by the time your spouse is in US, the dates may retrogress (for example, lets say for discussion sakes - Jan 06). In that case, if the dates eligible for filing are before Nov 06, your wife will need to wait till the date becomes Nov 06 again. Hope this clarifies some of your questions.
I am in the same situation and trying to figure out the best way possible. Please let me know if you or anyone finds anything relevant. Thanks guys, this is a very good forum!!

IV has been doing a great job, we should all be proud of being a part of it.
I came across this post (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=10316).
I think we should keep fighting till our goal is met. Can IV core team shed some light whether recapturing the unused visa numbers is ever possible ? Even if there is slightest change, we should NOT GIVE UP and work towards it. I've read that USCIS have so far wasted upto 600,000 EB visa numbers.
Now we are seeing some light at the end of the tunnel for multi year EAD or EAD validity during the period of AOS(I-485). Should we roll up our sleeves and work for the recapture of unused visa numbers ? How to make this happen, Please share your thoughts and ideas.
LETS NOT STOP UNTIL WE GET WHAT WE DESERVE!

Hi pd,
thanks for the post - its useful.
There is comment in the report about the EAD/AP validity for three years, as in "Employment authorization documents (EAD) are presently valid for one year at a time. The CIS is about to extend this validity to three years. The same is true of advance parole (AP) documents".
I thought they are now giving two years for EAD (if PD is under retrogession) - this plan of extending this validity to three years - is it new or some sort of typo? If true - that would be good.

I have EAD for couple of years & when I moved to Ohio, I was issued 4 years DL. They did look at I-94 (I travelled on AP having one year validaty on I-94), also they DID NOT looked at my EAD expiry date..They asked very simple question - Do you have your SSN? Thats it..!
C'mon...Guys, come to Ohio..you will get DL for 4 years..
My Ohio license will expire soon along with H1B. As far as my attorney says, when the original H1B application receipt presented, BMV issues one-year renewal. With the H1B approval, they renew the license for three years.

The second bill (HR 5634) says that people with PhD from US universities are cap-exempt from EB. So it means some quota will be freed up from EB1 and also from Eb2-NIW.
Read all the bills. I guess you are bummer !!!!
I looked into the PDF's - seems like PhD does not have to be from US universities (can be from anywhere within 3 years of applying for greencard).
Of course it would have helped more if masters is also included but this is at least a start - hopefully more provisions might be added as it goes for debate.

I received RFE on my 140 on nov 15th. I came to know about this when i checked the status online. It says on Nov 15th we mailed you a notice requesting further evidence . I-140 Receipt date is dec 11 2006. I do not yet know what the RFE is about. How many days does it take for the RFE to arrive normally ??
As USCIS sends out the RFE in regular mail, it takes about 4/5 business days to get it in hand. The lawyer and employer will add their buffer if they are busy or if the RFE is related to the employer, etc. The reason being once you know about the RFE you would get on top of them to send a response. They will use this opportunity to make bottom line money.
One good thing that USCIS had done is put time constraints on the RFE's (Though I don’t support this 100% as there are drawbacks). In earlier days the employer used to send response after 3/4 months so that they could delay the case as long as they can to have you tied down.
As I-140 is an employer's document, you might not have much say in this case. I suggest you to take it easy and watch out carefully in your benefit. Obtain a copy of the RFE before you do anything as there are lots of professional fraud lawyers out there who will do anything to make money.
I wish you good luck in your I-140 case.

Peace out guys!
Why dont we call it a day on this issue. The OP was venting frustration, and feels entitled to do so. Nothing wrong with that, and there is no need to question his motives or logic. Considering what all of us are going through, there is a lot to be said in favor of letting out steam.
Lest anyone feel offended for anything I have said, I am not being patronizing. Indeed, after five years of wait, I feel like a good crib session will do me good too.
Chill out and enjoy the weather....after weeks of awfully low temp., the sun is out and the weather is glorious.:)

You definitely need to send it even if you get BIOMETERICS
Hello WAIT_FOR_EVER_GC , Please do not confuse or post anything that you have no idea about.
Its is not true. You don't need to send photos for EAD and the instruction clearley says that. For AP you need to send photos even thnough you went for biometric appointment.
If you apply both EAD and AP together then you will still need to go to fingerprint and also send photos for AP.

They are requesting contract from a specific client?
Then I would produce that.. As I mentioned in previous posts, I also attached other offers and contracts I had from before.
Also lawyer wrote 1 letter specifically addressing the work location and nature point, which had client name, contract, and info about job.
I don't remember seeing any specific time limit mentioned in that letter.
End client varification letter will help. In my case, we didn't attach it since it was too much hassle to get one.. but lawyer wanted to add it if we could get it..
We had total 4 client contracts with my name on it.
plus 10 other contracts for work without anyone's name on it.. since we do projects not staffing only we could do that..
Hi zCool,
I got RFE and summary of text is as below.
Asking for
1. Contract from the client in charlotte, nc
(but after applying h1b extn, i moved to CA)
2. W-2 for 2006,2007
I got #2.
for #1, we are planning to send old contract for charlotte,nc client and new contract in CA client.
Do we need to send end client 'project verification letter' or something like that ?.
Thanks a lot.

A big blunder, my mom name is blank in the birth certificate as they have prepared the BC keeping in mind my SSC (10th Certificate which doesn't have mom's name, ofcourse). Whether an affidavit from my mom + the birth certificate without my mom name in it, will solve my problem?
My name as per passport First Name: Afroze Last Name : Mohammed
As per the BC certificate Name: Mohd Afroze ( As per 10th Std spellings), whether it will create any problem?
Please suggest me 31st March is approaching .................
Thanks,

You can do hero worship of your lawyer whoever it is. I will not.
Ask him/her if he will do advocacy effort for you or sue USCIS since all his clients are struggling in the long wait and spending a lot of money on immigration consultations, fees etc.
Ask him if he contribute to IV instead?
Ask him to give you priority instead of your employer who gives him business every year.
Ask him why AILA is not giving you regular updates through him. As clients of lawyers we should get regular updates and prompt responses. What are they doing about country caps removal, end of retrogression, recapture etc. I mean they are so powerful, so why can't they do it for us so that we no longer need lawyers and save a lot of money? Arn't we all spending thousands of $s on immigration attorneys ? and only few of us pay only $25 and many are free members and get such a good service from IV website. We all hate to pay a single dollar to IV and accuse IV core of asking contributions every time there is a drive but IV still helps us. They need to learn from us.
Why none of us has the courage to do it, but we have the courage to trash talk IV and blame its core for not working hard enough for our $25.
Whats your skillset, I can try to get you a project. No offense, but you do seem to have too much time to loose-comment on others and contribute nothing.

good luck to all!
When you said 'receipt-dates', were those the actual receipt dates or the erroneous notice dates that would appear in the online status page?

How do Promotions impact one's existing GC application?
for example: one filed for the GC as a Software Engineer, 5 years down the road one switches to a different company in the same area/location using EAD (avoiding AC21 for now) and the salary is 30 % higher than that was mentioned on one's LC filing and the job title is sr software engineer (same or similar responsibilities, senior title). How would something like this impact one's GC application?
I also wonder what would happen to the GC application if one was to get another promotion and become a manager with even a higher salary (some job responsibilities stay the same and some new managerial responsibilites get added).
I am sure many of us would have faced this since clearly many of us have been waiting for many many years - I would really appreciate your input on this. Thanks!

You need to ask yourself what you want to do with it?
Because, any paper currency is currency - it will lose its values over time.
Do you want to keep converting it back and forth depending on what the exchange rate is?
Things to look at: How easy would it be to convert it back to the USD? What taxes will you be liable to? What are the associated fees?
forex trading can be a lucrative business if you have the discipline and patience.
Another thing you might want to consider: Gold is at an all time high demand right now. I think that price will keep going up.
Do any of you have any information on Foreign currency CD. I am thinking of opening CD account with Foreign currency possibly with Indian rupee.
Rupee is 47.50 today and i think its the best time to buy rupees rather keeping ur money in dollar.
Please throw some input.
