I have received my FP notice one month back and have my appointment scheduled for next tuesday. I haven't received my wife and daughter's FP notice yet. (my daughter is 7 years old)
I called USCIS 2 to 3 times and finally 10 days back they told me that my wife and daughter’s appointment also set for same date as mine and he was not sure why they have not sent me notice yet. USCIS Rep told me that he is going to send me a copy. I haven't received copy yet as of today. I called USCIS again yesterday but they couldn’t see if notice has been sent or not.
I have checked with post office and they haven't received anything either.
I am planning to go to ASC with my family and will see if they could take FP for them along with me. USCIS also suggested same but they can't guarantee if ASC will take it or not.
Has anyone experienced this before? Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thank you!
Update: I went to ASC office yesterday and they gave me copy of FP notice for my wife and daughter from their system without any hesitation.

After the initial H-1B period maxes out, the beneficiary needs to move out of the US but not necessarily to the home country, for at least a year.

agarwa4,
It is very important to keep your salary/wage consistent with what's in your approved Labor/I-140.
If you accept the employment with lower salary using AC-21 and if any RFE comes for Employment verification then you will not be able to respond to the satisafaction of USCIS on why you are working on the lower wages.
Hope this helps you understand the importance of keeping job position and slary level consistent with what its in your approved labor.
another option is to start the process all over again with lower salary, but with onging PERM/I-140 backlogs who wants to go thro' this hell again???
Bottomline stay with your consulting employer, why in the world you want to accept the lower salary???
You are EB-2 and the way dates are moving now for EB-2 you might get your GC soon....if the client is forcing you to come on board as PERM try to convince him that its a matter of another 5-6 months before you get GC and then you can accept his offer if you are looking for the job stability versus wokring for a consulting employer.

Ezra Klein - Should states set their own immigration quotas? (http://voices.washingtonpost.com/ezra-klein/2010/11/should_states_set_their_own_im.html)
The Kauffman Foundation has a report out ranking the "new economy" states. Their methodology "measures the extent to which state economies are knowledge-based, globalized, entrepreneurial, IT-driven and innovation-based � in other words, to what degree state economies� structures and operations match the ideal structure of the New Economy." The winners? Massachusetts, Washington, Maryland, New Jersey and Connecticut. The laggards? Mississippi, West Virginia, Arkansas, Alabama and Wyoming.
I never really know what to make of reports like this, but one of the metrics is "immigration of knowledge workers," which really isn't under the control of individual states. Visa quotas are set by the federal government. But why? There are a lot of places where a national solution really is best, but that seems particularly untrue in immigration. Detroit, for instance, has a lot of empty houses, a lot of shuttered factories, and a lot of emigration. They could probably use a bunch of immigrants to occupy homes, buy things, and start businesses. Similarly, California has had a pretty good experience with letting highly skilled immigrants start tech firms in the Northern part of the state. Maybe they'd like to let even more of them in to do it. These graphs explain the potential appeal (click for a larger version):
immigrantbusinesses.jpg
There are obvious difficulties with having a California visa that doesn't work in Oregon. But we have limited visas now -- think student visas, or temporary agricultural workers -- and we seem to get by all right. Another concern would be that certain states would be overtaken by xenophobia and basically shut off immigration, though Arizona suggests that you can do quite a lot to make immigrants miserable even without changing the number of available visas, and my hunch is that any state that went too far in this direction would face a tremendous outcry from its business community.

If I-140 has been approved, would it still be fine to apply for transfer from H1-B to F1 status by using form I-539 & university issued I-20 ? How long does it take to transfer status from H1B to F1 ? When can one start school �. Only after I-539 approval or after only applying ?
For pursuing an MBA, does it matter if one is on F1 or H4 (spouse is on separate H1)?
Please look at Zima's post in For NIW and OsR applicants (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=3081) forum.
You can get an answer to the second question by asking the International Student Office of the University. That answer will be more reliable then the answer from a lawyer.

Congrats! Shortest journey.
On the way to get your GC in about 3 months?!?!?
So this reduced your GC wait period from "uncertain or 15 years" to 3-5 months Max!
What a change!

My case was filed in EB-3 category (August 2003). I completed a doctorate in 2007. I am thinking of filing in EB-1 and EB-2. Can anyone help me with links for preparing these applications and some dos and donts? Also is there any way to recapture my earlier PD (Aug 2003) for the current filing? Thanks for your help.

I applied on 7/26 for seventh year H1-B renewal and extension of stay. I concurrently filed I-539 for Extension of Stay for family. Six years of H-1 and related I-94 expired on 10/8 and since then I have been working under the 240 day grace period rule.
Here are some other facts:
- I have an approved I-140 filed and approved back in 2007
-I-485 was filed during the 2007 July-August wave
-I do have an EAD valid until November 2011 but I have never used it. I have always maintained my H-1 status.
-My wife also has an EAD that expires end of this week. I-765 Application to renew her EAD was filed more than 75 days ago for which we requested an expedite request. She has never worked before although her first EAD was approved three years ago.
My questions:
1. What happens if USCIS denies my employer's petition for H-1b extension? Will I be out of status immediately after? Does having an EAD provide me any insulation?
2. What about other people here those who are working on EAD? How are they maintaining their status? Are they required to file extension of stay application?
3. Do you think approval of my wife's EAD renewal is tied to the pending I-539?
4. What about my children? In the event my application for H-1 renewal is denied, will they be out of status immediately after? Are there any steps I can take to ensure this does not happen
Sorry for too many questions and thank you in advance to those who will respond.

As per Spet 2009 visa bulletin, my PD will be current . I recently moved to LA due to Job change . If i do AC 21, do you think i will miss a oppurtunity of getting GC in spet since my PD is OCT 2004.
Please advise. Should i do AC21 now ? Or Should i do only on RFE?
Another question. I still have permanent address in chicago but moved to LA. Do i need to do AC11 form?

Check with your international students office. In our time, they needed to sign the I-20 before you/your wife can leave the country. I also think she needs a separate I-20 with a F2 endorsement. She should not just carry your I-20 with her name in it, then you are supposed travel with her. Again, these were the old rules and I am not an attorney and this is not a legal advise, just from my personal experience.
this only applies if your spouse does not have any other visa. In the Op's case, she already has a 10 year visa, so she is okay to visit. Just make sure that you are able to show the necessary funds for support when she lands here.
