You are trying to say I can sign an application then mail it with just fee. You think they will accept without any Initial Evidence. I know about them relaxing condition on Medical. When did they relax it for all other Initial Evidence as well.
But I agree, these two things are different. Only medicals have been relaxed by USCIS via its press release. Since a lot of the lawyers have sent without some initial evidence, AILA should use its proven;-) negotiation skills to get USCIS to issue a new press release which ascertains that only singatures and filing fees are required at this time.

What part do you want interpreted? It says in plain simple english that it is wating to be assigned to an officer.
You can take an infopass to find out if your case is pre-adjudicated, prints/name check are clear.
Hi ,
My priority date is March 26th 2006 and current for month of September.
I created a SR on 09/14 and got the following response today.
"
Service records indicate that your application is pending and waiting assignment to an officer. You will be notified when a decision has been made or if additional information is needed. If you do not receive a decision or other notice of action from us within 60 days from the date of this letter, please contact customer service to complete another service request
"
I would appreciate if someone can interpret the message.

you can't travel out of USA.
If you file for I-485 (and EAD), but no AP, I was told by my attorney that you have to stay in US till you get receipt ( possilbly - your filing is incomplete, deficient etc- so you need to be here to make it complete - if you want faster filing).
Anybody else heard the same?
I don't see an answer to vsoni's question. I don't know the answer either. Can someone answer vsoni's question and also mine, please?
Here is my question:
I'm currently on an H1 visa status. I'd be applying for 485, EAD, AP on June 1 (my PD becomes current then. :) ). Currently I don't have a H1B visa stamp in my passport. I'm planning to leave for India immediately after applying for 485, EAD and AP and apply for visa in India.
My question is if my H1B visa gets rejected, can I come to the US on AP (someone in the US will mail me the approved AP)?

Is there any provision in any of the upcomming immigration bills that allows for "Ability to file for I485 even with visa number unavailability.". I know that
some of the provisions in Hagel (S. 1916, 1917, 1918, & 1919) Specter (unnumbered draft) bills have provisions for removal of numerical limits on adjust of status for people who have an advanced degree from US.
But is there any provision in any of the immigration bills which allows for "Ability to file for I485 even with visa number unavailability." like the one that was in s 1932. This would be easy to pass as Green card numbers would stay the SAME and no major modification is done to the existing law

Please refer the url, one of the iv member has stated his friends denial case.
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=21716&page=21
The authenticity of that case is not clear. Someone claims his friend had issues and we do not have any details.
I used AC21 few months back and went through the NOID ordeal.
Our volunteers working on this effort are in the process of identifying authentic AC21 cases that got denials though they did everything to the law and are in process of filing MTR.
If anyone got a denial and wants to help us in this - please send a PM to IV volunteer pd_recapturing

03/09/2011: May 2011 EB-2 Cut-Off Date Substantial Move-Ahead Predicted
AILA has reported that the EB-2 cut-off dates in Visa Bulletin in May 2011 may progress ahead substantially because of large unused EB-1 numbers since October 2010 since it has about 12,000 unused EB-2 numbers. Very good news from AILA and Mr. Oppenheim.
Gimme some greens now,.

I got one more email with the update (this is third email with the same staus "CPO"). This time I have SLUD on EAD and AP also. Here is the email...
Application Type: I485 , APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
Your Case Status: Card/ Document Production
On September 14, 2010 we mailed the document to the address we have on file. You should receive the new document within 30 days. If you do not, or if you move before you get it, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283.
My wife received here Welcome letter but I did not get one yet. Here is my timeline...
09/08/2010 - CPO emails for self and wife
09/09/2010 - Got emails updating the status to Decision for self and wife
09/10/2010 - Standard CPO email to self
09/11/2010 - Wife got the welcome letter (I-797) by USPS
09/15/2010 - CPO email to self with the new message (Document sent to address on file)
Still waiting for cards in hand.
Thanks,
Tempy
Mine is somewhat similar
09/10/2010 - CPO emails for self and wife (Friday)
09/11/2010 - Got emails updating status to Decision for self and wife (Saturday)
09/13/2010 - Got CPO for wife and SLUD for me in the morning and CPO for me in the evening
I have not received any welcome notice till now, but it is too early as I guess I have to wait till Friday or Saturday.
Looks like there is no specific pattern in the way this is handled. Some get Decision first followed by CPO followed by post decision activity, some get CPO first, some get post decision activity.

Many folks on this forum are so excited that consulting companies are going to be affected by this bill. Many FTEs think they are safe and consulting companies going out of business will help them get their GCs faster. Wait and watch, such bills typically affects direct hiring companies more than consulting companies in the end.
Remember who is proposing these bills. Durbin and gang. Do you think they are trying to liberate the employees from the clutches of "bad" employers. I don't think so.
Many IV members has started seeing this anti-H1B bill as CIR 2009.
We are such a pathetic community !

Its good to hear from ppl that they got an Yellow form from Infopass etc... I have been to San Jose USCIS office multiple times asking for status.... I just don't receive any concrete information from them...Infact, they are even hesitant to create an SR to request an update...
Any one else visited San Jose USCIS office? Similar experience, please share it with us...
and What do u mean by stating that 485 is at local USCIS office? All 485 applications will b at either NSC or TSC, rite?
I had an SR open for which i got the response as wait for 60-90 days and case is in the process of review.
I went to Infopass (San Jose) twice and both times they said, i need to wait as your case just needs to get picked up for processing and every thing else looks ok...
Called the NCSC and they also tell me to wait for 30-60 days....
What other things can we do to actually get our case picked up?

47K + 5500*2.1 ~ 58000 visas...for EB2 I to make it current. coldcloud-> you cut short the waiting time by half ( from 10 years to 5 years? :))
I believe you dont need to multiply all of the 485 by 2.1 as already applied I485 will include the family?

Do they offer unlimited india plan? I never heard of it.
I know teleblend offers unlimited india plan for 49.99 per month. This is almost double to vonage.
ALLVOI is like 1300 minutes for 19.99/month.

FYI...I heard from some of my friends that Vonage is good as long as you are its customer. Once you call CS and tell them you are leaving...they play all sorts of dirty tricks.
What you heard is probably true, I was a customer long time back and wanted to disconnect, on top of stern response and attitude, they charged me for the whole month instead of prorating it .
I like the new plan , may be I might buy it but if vonage has done this there will tons of other companies who will slash the prices or atleast match vonage.
The world wide calling if great if you are calling your home country everyday or the phone card companies are costing you more than $25/month(air tel and others). Besides $25/per month these days is ridiculous(before the free worldwide calling plan). You can get a GOOD VOIP service for $10 or even under that these days. Just good "voip service providers"
Bottom line- Great plan by not so great cust serv company

Of course he can be sued. You just need to prove that you were harmed by his inane comments.

Here is a summary of the bills, their bill numbers and the Sections:
Sen. Chuck Hagel's Bill (Section 202 of S. 1918)
-High-tech workers who have worked in the U.S. for 3 years would be allowed to adjust to permanent resident status without regard to the annual employment-based immigrant visa cap of 140,000.
-The spouses and children of immigrant workers would also be allowed to adjust status without regard to this cap.
McCain/Kennedy Bill (Sections 601 and 602 of S. 1033)
-Increases quota on EB immigrants to 290,000 to alleviate retrogression
-Recapture unused visas between 2001 and 2005
-Increase the per country limit from 7% to 10%
Cornyn/Kyle Bill (Sections 1001 and 1002 of S. 1438)
-Recapture of the unused visas between 2001 through 2005
-Removal of diversity visa and reallocation of these. Since this is mentioned under EB, the implication seems to be reallocation to EB but am not sure.
-Increase of the country limit from 7% to 10%
It is understood that there would be a merging of these to make the final comprehensive immigration bill
