A Blog reader called me the other day and wanted to know when his priority date will become current. His I-485 adjustment was filed in August 2007 when visas opened up for 30 days, and since that time retrogressed. The applicant is from India and like many others in his shoes is eager for answers. So how do visa numbers become available?
In order to approve an application for adjustment of status (I-485), there must be a visa number available in the particular category. This, in turn, depends upon the country of chargeability and the priority date of the case. Once the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has reviewed a particular I-485 application, a request is submitted to the DOS for a visa authorization. If the USCIS makes the request for a visa number to the DOS when the priority date of a particular case is current, and an immigrant visa number is available, the authorization is transmitted and the USCIS can approve the I-485 application. This is all tracked through the DOS Immigrant Visa Allocation Management System (IVAMS).
If an immigrant visa number for a particular individual is requested from the DOS by the USCIS, but none is available, the request is moved to the "pending" file with the DOS. Data from this pending file is used by the DOS to calculate the appropriate cutoff dates for the backlogged categories in the Visa Bulletin each month.
Cases placed in the pending demand category are processed as immigrant visa numbers become available. The DOS communicates with the USCIS regarding the A numbers of the cases for which visa numbers have been authorized. These cases are then processed to completion and green cards are then issued by the USCIS.
As you can see, this is a very complicated and streamlined process, with actual visa numbers tracked, issued, and assigned to particular green card cases as part of the approval process. Clients often do not understand why they have to wait, sometimes years for visa numbers to open, even after USCIS approvals. We hope that both agencies will find a better way to talk to each other and make the Immigrant visa process and much smoother one.

My friend, do not call Sir to any one here. We all are on the same boat and trying to share our experiences and learn from each other.
Were you given a 221g? possibly green or some other color?
It appears from your email that you have submitted the requested documents and got the email from the embassy to submit the passport. If this is the case you may want to follow up with the embassy.
Sir,
I have extended my H1b visa in Sept. 2010. I appeared for interview in New Delhi and submitted my Passport on 20th of April 2011 and today is 23rd of May 2011. What do you think that how much more time can they take?
Regards

Are you working for your new employer now? (I assume not).
Is you new employer a consultancy, i.e, your final work assignment will be for another client... if so, then you should expect a RFE (not gauranteed, but most likely) regarding client details and contracts... assuming you fall under this category, I would suggest you to apply for premium processing if you are able to respond to such an RFE...
But otherwise, I wouldn't recommend using premium processing, since you are almost 6 months away from expiry....
pal :)
Pal,
Thanks for your reply!
I'm not working for my new employer.
New employer is consultancy, and currently I'm on project which will go till next year. So no issues with the client.

Folks, I have received a notice from USCIS stating the following:
The above application or petition has been received.
Your application was received without the necessary fingerprint fee.
Under 8CFR 103.2(e), this fee of $70.00 must be submited along with the filing fee fot the application/petition. If this office has not recieced the fee within 87 days, your application will be considered to be abandoned under ...
Is there any one else in the same boat? What are my options here?
I too received a similar notice. My employer replied by submitting proof of the paid checks. Meanwhile, I received my receipt notice that shows $395 received. I have also received the FP notice and the same was completed yesterday. Customer service was not of much help.

Dear Immigration Attorney,
I read many good news in this forum that one can obtain a copy of I140 even if she/he doesn't know the receipt#. Is this possible? If yes, could you please advise and share a sample letter(FOIA doc) that I can make especially when do not have a receipt notice #.
Please also advise on the other documents that I need with FOIA?
Please help...

Guys, is there any way to expedite her EAD to be approved soon? The available solutions you have include:
1. File for your wife's H1 extension
2. After 60 days of filing your EAD, take an Infopass appointment and request an expedite process of your wife's H1 stating financial hardships, job loss etc.
can she continue work in h1 even if her h1 has expired until 90 days? No

We filed our 485 on July 2nd 2007 at Nebraska office � EB3 � July 7, 2001
- The case was shifted to Texas and we received notices from Texas office with receipt date of August 27.
- Our date is now current however processing at Texas is still stuck at June 27, 2007.
- Does this mean our RD is now 08/27/07 even though it was recd. at Nebraska on 07/02/07??
Unfortunately yes - RD Aug 27, you can confirm this by looking at your receipt notice that you got from your attorney.

Hi zeusjerry,
Thanks for your reply. :)
No, I am not planning for GC now but might apply for E3 visa in future so just want to keep all my visa in same passport.
1. Do you know any process of H1 stamp transfer on different new citizenship passport.
2. Is there's any wages difference between H1 & E3 ? Because I have heard while you are on H1 agents will take atleast 30% commission from your salary.
Regards,
Nirms

Hi
When renewing EAD paper filing not E-file, I had written the check in favor of USCIS instead of "U.S.Department of Homeland security" , do you think there would be a issue for them to accept the cheque?

PD isn't current, but just check i-485 online status, showing "Document production or Oath Ceremony" (i.e., the last cycle).
There was indeed a soft LUD in June this year. After that nothing much else. Is there sth good coming along my way?
Appreciate if anyone here can share his/her thoughts/comments.

Excellent words Ragz,
However i have found that motivating Desis is like milking a male buffalo (no offence to our fellow desis helping out on Immigration Voice.
There is just too much inertia, plain negativity, fear of being prosecuted etc. Besides WAYYY too many ppl like to sit on the fence and wait it out, see which way things swing and then take action at the last minute.
Also this might be a good time to mention community support. The Illegals, to the best of my knowledge get a good amt of community support. To the extent that even amnesty bills are introduced. Try getting the Local Indian communities to help. Most will give u long talks and suggestions, but Few will open their wallets.

Hello Folks:
This long wait for Green Card has made me think about a number of things...
A few days back a couple of my friends have recieved notices from USCIS are sending notices 'Intent to Deny their I-485' w/o any rhyme or reason. Employer says they have not withdrawn their I-140. They said they will appeal but if nothing happens they will go back to India.
Just worried...if this happens to me and I am forced to go out of the country in 30 days, what happens to my US loans. I do not think I would be able to repay back my home & car loans with an Indian salary if I return. In this market I can only sell at a huge loss. I also used US Line of credit for education purposes. Do I need to file bankruptcy? I am on a EAD right now...
Any thoughts on this... greatly appreciate ....it

I have the following status working with the original H1B employer who filed for my green card petition:
1) PD Jan, 2007, EB3-I
2) I-140 approved and pending AOS
3) 2 yrs. EAD available, expiring Sep. 2011
4) H1B will be expiring within 3 months (1 year left from 6 years limit)
My questions,
1) Can I use EAD instead of extending H1B? I want to stay with the same employer as a
full time employee.
2) If yes, is it required to inform INS? How and when?
3) In that case, how me, my son (middle school student, H4 & pending AOS) and wife's (EAD & pending AOS) stay in US will be justified with no valid I-94 (assuming I am not extending H1B anymore) ?
Answers to my above questions will be highly appreciated.:confused:

Hi,

So as you mentioned that you had similar case. Did you have LIN# only or 1-140 receipt ?
