Immigration Law from Houston Immigration Lawyer - Annie Banerjee Has Just Posted the Following:
The DOL introduced a new Prevailing Wage system which will centralize everything. Previously each State's Workforce Agency gave those Prevailing Wage. Obviously there were discrepancies in how each SWA operated causing problems with DOL filings.
However, DOL introduced this new system of centralized Prevailing Wage determination with no computerized system of filing. We have to mail in our request to the DOL. Then the DOL will take forever to come up with a Prevailing Wage. The DOL has advised employers to file the Prevailing Wage 60 days prior to advertising for a PERM, since the ads expire in 6 months. This is strange because the DOL went computerized much earlier than the CIS did. Why could they not have a faster computerized process BEFORE centralizing the whole process? Was this then intentional?
This will slow down businesses, and filing of immigration. Similarly in July of 2009 the DOL significantly slowed down the LCA filings for H-1Bs. Which makes me wonder if DOL is slowing down things as a protectionist measure which caters to socialism? Is this the death of free enterprise, and business at the speed of 21 Century? It was another Democratic President and Congress that passed the AC 21 to speed the process up about a decade ago.

My PD is July 2004 EB2 with RD 02 July 2007, ND 09 Aug 2009. NC cleared in Oct 2007, Biometrics renewed by USCIS Feb 2009 and all primary and dependent cases PreAdjudicated on 13th Apr 2009.
While doing routine status check this month by opening SR's I came to know that USCIS has screwed up my EB category on my pending I-485 application in NSC. Looks like the data entry was screwed by the USCIS contractors or mail room personell. Also the PreAdj process also completely overlooked this mistake and preadjudicated my case. Because of their mistake my case was not even considered for approvals this month and also last years when the dates were current.
I created multiple SR's and did 3 infopass appointments to find out what is the current EB Classification and finally was able to confirm through infopass appointment that USCIS has put me and my family in EB3 category (GC category E36, E37, E38) instead of EB2 (E21).
SR response were vague and did not help much. Infopass appointments were of very little help as IO's in Dallas Infopass center are not trained to handle EB - I485 related issues. They don't have access to enough information to help us. They don't know how to use their own system to find information. Tried POJ method to reach IO but always got connected to useless CSR's.
I have only one I-140 in Eb2. My lawyer wrote to USCIS this Friday. I don't know when USCIS will correct the mistake so that they can Adjudicate my case being current this month and next month.
CSR's are not letting me open SR's as I have already opened 3 SR's ( 2 on my own and 1 through IO in infopass).
Did anyone has any similar experience with USCIS screwing up their application? If yes how were you able to get this fixed. Please post if you have any USCIS-NSC expedited addresses, FAX numbers, Direct contact addresses for Senior USCIS officals or procedures for submitting issues. Any help with be greatly appreciated.

I don't think it is another stimulus package, it is only for the ones who did not claim or were not eligible or became eligible this year.

Thank you guys for your responses. I hope that it won't cause any issue...
Lawyer had just mentioned NA in that column, thankfully, I had submitted copy of my I140 approval.
Anyways, hoping for the best and continuing to wait and watch...

I believe the folks from electric rain would be the first to tell you that they don't really play in that game. Try importing artwork from Illustrator. The best answer is to go with a true 3d modeling program. There are plenty out there...
Good luck!

Is it a good idea for Moderators/Admin to create new forum for the GC approved folks. This purposes is to...
To retain them and could be helpful with their experiences for other members.
This is another way of giving it back.
your thoughts...
I do agree. In fact, some of the IV founders also received their GC :D. I hope they will consider this request to help others with our past experiance.
Thanks

Hello.
I filed I-485 on October 1st. Alone with I-485 I filed Form G-1145, E-Notification of Application/Petition Acceptance. Instructions for G-1145 says that I will be notified within 24 hours of documents accepting but I didn't get any notification yet. Is this something I should worry about? Documents been sent by Express mail and delivered to Chicago lockbox on October 1st.

Today, I received an email from USCIS that my EAD application got approved. My receipt date is on the 3rd week of May of 2007. What I don't understand is that the current processing time at NSC for I-765(EAD) for pending I-485 is March 26th, 2007.....

Good evening,
I am currently in the United States and in the process of changing my Q1 into a F1 visa.
My contract with the Q1 visa unexpedently ended in June 2009 and the visa was expiring on the 17th of september 2009.
I sent the file with all the papers to the USCIS before the end of the expiration date and is still in process at this time.
I heard that i can not exceed the period of 180 days after my last day of work with my Q1 Visa.. Is this true ?
I was thinking by the time i filed everything before the end of my Q1 visa, i could stay in the United States until the approval or denial of my F1 visa...
if this is true :
1. Do I have to wait in France for the answer of the USCIS, or my case will be cancelled and I have to start all oveer again in France ?
2. If I do not stay more than 180 days, going back to France and coming back for exemple 1 week after to the US with a tourist visa, am I able to change my status to F-1 ?
3. If i receive an approval answer from USCIS after a few days that I've been back in France, will it be valid ? Can it be sent to me ?
4. Do I have to get a new I-20 from the university if I am starting the process in France, or the one that I have is still valid ?
Could you help me please, beause i am confused...:confused:
Thanking you by advance for your answer

It's up to the employer if he wants to keep you as an employee and has the right to cancel your H1 if he likes to do so. Just because you left the country doesnt mean that your H1 becomes invalid, but again its up to the employer.
That's right. Only thing is he will be required to pay you. Make sure you get pay stubs in case you are asked to prove your status at re-entry.

Thank you for the response. I correct myself, I shouldn't say Visa. I mean Approval Notice. With the approval notice in hand which is effective May 2007, can I switch employers before that and get a transfer of H1 for the 3 years based on that or will I have to wait till May? Thanks!

Hi,
Regarding A# on I 140, if you've missed that in your 485 application, it's no big deal as long as you've sent a copy of your I-140 approval notice that has the A# mentioned in it.
Just my 2 cents...

I am also looking for form I-131.
The current form expired on 02/282009, so they might be working on revision.
I agree with you. The current form expired on 2/28 so they might post a new form tomorrow

My attorney has submitted the documents for I140/485 concurrent filing. UPS has messed up and they lost my documents.It contains original documents for applying I140.
I am wondering if there is any chance that I can send photocopy of documents to USCIS explaining them the situation as I do not want to miss the chance of deadline Aug 17th. Could anyone please suggest me? Did anyone experience the same situation before.
Thanks.
