Portions of DREAM bill introduced in both houses say that children of ilegal immigrants will be allowed pathway to citizenship if;
Have arrived here at the age of 15 or under;
Have lived in the U.S. for at least 5 years;
Graduate from high school;
Serve in the military or attend college for at least two years; and
Have good moral character.
Now our children (children of legal immigrants)? do they qualify under any of these that are cited above? Infact yes, they do under all of these. If they can introduce bills to consider the children of undocumented / ilegal immigrants, why is there no pathway for citizenship for the children of legal immigrants? Ofcourse they fall under our petitions, but they should be given priority over the others, particularly since their parents pay the most tax/social security etc etc.

I did not make the mistake of sending her abroad, she had gone on her own accord and overstayed until her AP expired and now wants to come back (as I said some of these issues were not in my control).
Thanks for suggesting the I-131 route, I will look into it and also ask an attorney for guidance in this regard.
Sorry to know about your situation....
Since you are not on h1b , she is not on h4, so question of coming back on h4 with AP is not there.
This is very tricky, there is only one solution.
You can apply for AP from outside USA only if on emergency humanitarian situations. Look at Form I-131, there is an option to apply from outside USA.
Look at part one of the I-131 document and talk to your attorney if you can show such a need for an emergency humaitarian situation.
If you had already known about this, why did you make the mistake of sending her abroad....

1) transfer her h1 (she is worried because many companies do not transfer if < 1 year is on h1), and simultaneously file for an H1 extension based on approved 140 from her current job?
A. While file for her H1 transfer she can ask for 3 years extension based on approved 140
2) file a new labor and port her PD from the approved 140?
A. If she has not filed her 485 then she has to start the GC and can port her PD to the new 140
3) if no to 1 or 2 - is it the end of the road? Can she transfer to H4 (on her husbands H1) and continue to stay here?
A. 1 and 2 are possible. If she wants she can transfer to H4 as well.
Hope this helps.

My wife got it stamped twice in Delhi....there were no issues as her application does not mention any 485 filing......
You can only file for her adjustment once her waiver requirements have been met....until then she has nothing to do with your application.
Once her waiver requirements have been met and your PD is current she can file her I-485application as an "accompnying spouse".
Now there has been some difference of opinion as per different answers I have received on forums from Murthy and Ron Gotcher. As per Murthy the I-485 can only be filed once the waiver is complete but as per Ron AOS can be filed once the waiver is approved. In the latter scenario she can make use of EAD and AP benefits but her final AOS will only be approved upon waiver completion. (Both the above scenarios are obviously only possible if your date is current.....:eek:)
If any of you guys find out whichever of the above scenarios is correct then please update the thread......even though with the PDs sitting in dark ages I do not think the above situation will really matter in my case.
Above is just my opinion. Please consult a reputed immigration attorney as every case is different.
Thanks for your response. I understand the process for J1 waiver and I have PD of Oct 2007 and hence not worried about including her in my 485 for now.
I'm more worried along the lines of her J1 visa stamping and problems at port of entry while returning to US. Since USCIS knows that I'm planning to immigrate to US (due to I-140) will they ask any questions or make her life difficult or reject her visa while stamping.
Did you wife go through J1 stamping when your I-140 was approved? Can you also provide your email id to know more about J1 waiver details in your case and how you handled it. It would be useful for us in another 3 years :-)

Come on folks - all the way to Riverhead we have tonnes of people living in these areas affected by Retrogression.
EAD is not a solution - EAD just makes our life a bit easier than on h1b - the struggle continues even on EAD.
How can you expect govt to fix your problem if you lack motivation?
Lets start mobilizing the chapter
Remember, we are no VIPs, we are in a mass distribution system and no one has special previlidges here, your lives won't change uless you motivate yourselves and speak up for yourselves.
We need a very strong resprsentation from everyone in the community.
Ignoring our requests only puts all of us in a tougher situation

I am reasonably knowledgable about benefit plans like 401(k) but just wanted a second opinion in the situation I decide to move perm to India.
1) Assume I have $ 100,000 in a 401K plan.
2) I terminate and roll over the funds to an IRA.
3) If I were to withdraw the funds ASAP I would face tax at a high rate as well as the 10% withdrawl penalty as I would be under 59 yrs 6 months.
4) To minimize my taxation I withdrawl a little bit every yr under the tax bracket. Say I withdraw 10K a yr for 10 yrs. Since I have no other US income I am under the tax bracket for US and dont have to pay any taxes. I do still have to pay the 10% penalty since im under 59 1/2.
5) By doing this I eventually mange to get 90K out of the 100k I start (assuming i dont take into account market earnings)
So is this doable and good logic ? Am I right or off somewhere. Would I face any taxation in India if I bring in this money on the principal ?
Also does anyone know what kind of interest rate a risk free treasury bond or instrument would pay in India ? If I bring to India an investment of aprox Rs 50 lakhs what kind of monthly income can I earn on the money assuming a secure conservative investment.
Thanks

DOL Proposed Legislation for Labor Certification
In an attempt to clamp down on fraud in the labor certification application process, the Department of Labor (�DOL�) has proposed regulations, which would impact both pre-PERM and PERM filings. The proposal includes requiring employers to pay for all costs and fees associated with a labor certification application. The penalties for violating this proposal include denial of the labor certification, revocation, debarment, or any combination. Debarment means an employer can not file a labor certification application for up to three years.
A labor certification application would also have a limited validity period. Currently a labor certification application is valid without limitation unless it is revoked or withdrawn. Under the proposed regulations, an employer must file an immigrant petition with the CIS within 45 days of the labor certification application approval. For applications which have already been certified, an employer must file within 45 days of the enactment of final rule implementing the regulations. If the labor certification application is not filed within this timeframe, it will expire and can not be used to support an immigrant petition.
The proposed regulations also prohibit substitution. Substitution occurs when an employer has an approved labor certification application, but the individual that was originally listed in the labor certification application is no longer being sponsored. An employer could �substitute� a new employee into the labor certification application if the new employee met the minimum requirements listed in the labor certification application at the time the application was initially filed. Concerned that substitution encouraged fraud, DOL proposes to eliminate substitution.
Finally, the proposed rule prohibits a labor certification application to be sold, bartered or purchased. If an individual or entity is found to have engaged in this kind of transaction, the labor certification application can be denied, revoked, debarment, or any combination.

Correct! One can only file EAD or AP when applying for I-485 when dates are current or after getting I-485 notice.
But you cannot apply for first EAD/AP before applying for 485, correct? I would be surprised if we can apply for EAD/AP just after LC or 140 approval and when dates are not current for 485.

But he can not loose our hopes, remember this, for the american people legal inmmigration is Green Card holders, if you are a temporary worker is like they are telling you hurry up pack your things and get back to your place, and the congress will try to work legal and illegal immigration at the same time, probably they will increase visas, but anyways the point is who is making noise in the streets? illegals and their supporters. In my case i contact my senator and my congressman every month asking to please help with comprehensive immigration reform, to help us to create legislation on name check so we do not have to wait years, and well all of them are republicans but all of them are immigrants so they know our pain.
