Support!!!!
We should have only one focus. Eliminate EB retro first. For that a simple amendment will be, 242K visa is open to both old EB and newly created merit system. That�s all. This amendment will eliminate the retro immediately. All other discussions and efforts are waste of time and energy

I have my first GC interview next month. I had a DUI few years back that I forgot to mention in the 485 app as I thought this was a traffic related offense. I want to know what are my options now? My lawyer suggests I file for some kind of waiver and suggests I take an attorney with me to the interview. She also asked me to get court certified copies of the conviction and that I completed all the required tasks assigned by the court.
Is this going to affect my GC in anyway? I need some guidance here.
Did the interview request from USCIS specifically mention the DUI?
Here's some information that might help you understand your situation better: http://www.californiadui.com/articles/immigration-issues-of-dui.php
I think it's not the prior DUI conviction, but the failure to disclose the prior DUI conviction that poses a potential problem. However, this is not something that cannot be taken care of with the help of an experienced attorney. There are numerous folks who have found themselves in a similar situation and have gone on to successfully get their GC. I agree with the advice provided by the gentleman above.

Hey man, there are like 2 other threads on this, but I'm glad that you brought it up, because this subject seems to have fallen by the wayside. I think that we should take this initiative by Senator Specter into consideration as part of our September 13 rally efforts, thoughts?

Hello,
I have a couple of questions here:
1) The last digit of the I-94# number is not very clear(Not sure if it is a 3 or 8). What do I write in the 485? Is there any way to find the correct one?
2) I filed the I140 without providing the A#. I understand that when I dont provide one, a new one is generated. And the A# is usually used to link the 485 with the 140. Now when I apply for 485, if I give the A# from my OPT EAD, will it be a problem because a new number will be already generated for I140? Should I write the A# in 485 or just leave it??
Thanks in advance for all the replies.

Akela,
I am not sure if line 14 of the ETA carries much significance. You can always submit your qualifications during I140.
Can you get a copy of ETA 750 Form A? That will tell you if the job requirements were filed under EB2 or Eb3.
Guys,
Please answer me the following question?
I have a masters from US and over 2 years of exp when I joined my company. They filed for my LC. There is nothing in form 750 B ETA that says if I am EB-2 or EB-3. In fact the line line 14 is blank which says list documents that support education, training, experience..etc. to be submitted during I-140. I suspect though on ETA 750 form A they made the advertisement as if I am eb-2. So the question is I do not see anything on line 14 of ETA form B. Is that a big blunder.
Did my lawyer blunder or I am ok?
My labor is not cleared yet. So no way to check I-140.
I know few things
ETA 750 FORM A probably filed as EB-2 (I have to believe my lawyer, they say I have been filed as EB-2 on repeated request).
ETA 750 form B of which I have a copy of (it was the one that I had to fill), line 14 says Item 14. Documentation. List any documents submitted with this form as evidence of the alien's qualifications. These may include statements from past employers, diplomas, and educational or training certificates. now this column is blank. Is that a problem? Did my lawyer made a big unrectified mistake.
Thanks,
akela

I wonder whether the author even worries about America's competitiveness. For him it is all about him, his citizenship etc. Lesser competition means better wages for writing 4 lines of HTML code. Why should he care about America and its competitiveness !

One of my ex-colleagues got his GC approved out of turn last year itself. He was EB3 - PD November 2005. They approved it for him, his wife and his two kids! He is a big devotee of Sathya Sai Baba and I think he certainly got his blessings on this one..!
I have nothing against you or anyone. Just i found in youtube so thought of sharing it with others.

RareRFEon485,
No need to worry if your employer is consulting company. If so, then in reply to USICS mention that you are employed by employer, but works/worked on different client sites for them which are in different states.
Keep all your previous LCA ready or better attach copies of all with your reply. Not a big deal.
I think its not a difficult RFE to respond. Consult your attorney for formal reply.

I actually sent evl instead of paystubs. I cant produce paystubs because I am not currently working with them
What is "evl"?
Anyway, it appears you just filed for your I-485 using "evl" or whatever it is that is causing you grief. Well, one "adventurous" option would be that if you just filed for I-485 and your PD is current and your old employer is not revoking the I-140, why don't you ask the new employer to apply for your LC and I-140 and then port the PD from the old employer?
Don't withdraw your existing I-485 until your new LC and I-140 come through. If the PD is current, then withdraw the old I-485 and apply for a new I-485. If the PD is not current, then do nothing and hope you don't get a RFE on the existing I-485.
Thanks,
Jayant

What about validating the visas in the US? I think it was some where in Brownback amnd.
Some of the salient points concerning legal immigrants in the CIR bill in its current form:
1. Bingaman amendment caps the EB green cards at 650,000 which includes derivatives like spouses.
Comments: Previously we had 290,000 for EB green cards, but we also did not have the increased number of H1Bs and the new guest worker category H2C which is around 200,000 every year and soon they will be eligible to apply for the EB green cards which essentially increases the number of people eligible to file every year. not sure when H2C workers are eligible to file for green cards. I think H2C applicants for green cards are exempt from cap till 2009 (Pls correct me if I am wrong). Can expect a significant relief from STEM applicants. Don't know about the cap for Family based applicants
2. STEM applicants exempt from cap even if they have not been working in exactly the same discipline as their STEM master�s degree.
Comments: It is VERY essential that this part of the bill be preserved in the upcoming debates for the final version since one significant relief from derivatives being exempted has been removed thanks to Sen. Bingaman. Don't know how the derivatives of STEM applicants are going to be considered.
3. No hard limit on countries. Soft cap protects visa numbers from being wasted by their downward flow.
Comments: This is definitely going in the right direction but I still feel the exemption of derivatives and STEM provided the biggest break for EB based applicants
4. File I 485 even if priority date is not current.
Comments: Provides relief where spouses can't work and can start using AC21 provisions.
Looking at the above provisions point #2 is very important to all EB categories because this is the one that provides most relief from the cap of 650,000. If anyone would like to add to these comments pls do so.... I might have analyzed certain provisions incorrectly.
And finally congratulations to all volunteers and contributors to IV for a job well done!

You don't need to buy insurance. The State governments offer free insurance to people who need it. Atleast your family members would qualify for it.
