Dear Fellow Posters
After 12 months of toil I have finally completed the narrative and evidence that I need for an EB-1a (Extraordinary Alien) application. I ab about to complete the I-140 paperwork to go with it.
My questions is this - I have contacted a small number of Immigration attorneys who have quoted me approx $6000 for the whole process. How many of you value think that USCIS would look at my application more favourably if I used a reputed attorney rathen than putting in my own application and paperwork ?
Thanks in anticpation of your replies

USCIS will be interested in the content of the application rather than the reputation of the attorney submitting it. You are free to submit your own application if you are comfortable researching immigration laws required for your application.

You can apply for reneal of Green Card; that will be no problem. Best bet for citizenship is to wait four more years before applying.

My situation is tricky here. I would really appreciate any inputs.
My six years validity for H-1 B will be complete in Mid Dec 2007. I filed my Labor on March 5th in Atlanta. As you know the ATLANTA center is really really slow and I am still waiting on my Labor approval decision. I thought of applying 140 through Premium Processing. Now USCIS suspended premium processing for 140s. My question is:
Whay will be my situation if my Labor gets approved and 140 is pending as of dec 2007 as the LC is filed with less than 365 days remaining on H1 validity? Will I be out of status or can I apply for 7th year extension.
Please guide me through the process and any scenarios. Thank you in advance.
It was intially hard to predict when USCIS would resume PP for I-140. But now that they have stopped taking in 485 applications, they should be in a position to estimate their work load and provide guidance soon.
Thanks,
Jayant

I think
- For Perm and subsequently I-140, you can only specify employers that are directly relevant to the number of years of experience claimed in labor. The details of the petitioning employer are most relevant and all your past employments should add up to the experience required
- However, for I-485, which is your application, you have to specify all the employments that you filed taxes for and from whom you received your paystubs (primary/secondary).

Can't avoid anything that future hold for you.
1. It would be good if the employer does not let USCIS know about your layoff.
2. don't apply for unemployment benifits even if you are given one (at least for 180 days from I-140 approval).
3. Hoping your employer does not revoke your I-140
4. Take a 3 months unpaid vacation at the same job and/or offer help by working from home. Accept a lower salary for 180 days.

I have been in US on L1 with Company A and then I changed several jobs and am on H1 with Company B. My I-140 has been filed by Company B and is approved . Company B also has an office in India. Can I take a transfer to Company B's office for 1 year and then come back to US on L1 visa and all this while still manage to continue my GC processing.

please......
I got notices from CSC too yesterday. The notice has a receipt date of Sep. 18, 2007 and a notice date of Sep. 19, 2007. The notice says that my petition was filed at CSC which is not the correct service center and has been transferred to NSC. NSC will be getting back to me with action taken. The notice has no information regarding Priority date or Attorney inspite of having a approved I140 and G-28 form included in the petitions
I immediately contacted my Attorney. Turns out we had Fedexed the applications on July 20th to the NSC and was recieved at the NSC on July 23rd. According to the attorneys, NSC probably transferred applications across various service centers for data entry and these applications are now being transferred back to NSC. It is very likley that the actual receipts will be issued by NSC. To play it safe, my attorneys will be sending a letter to the NSC documenting this and requesting that they be sent the correspondence from hereon.
Hopefully, thats what it is. Have you asked your attorneys their opinion?

Prashanthi,
Thanks for your response.
One more question ..
While continuing to work with GC sponsor on EAD, can we set up our own LLC or an INC?
If yes, on whose name should we register the company ? Should I register on my name or is it anyway safer to register on my wifes name?
Does it matter anyway?
Many thanks for your help.

I have started a new thread to remind everyone (who has not yet contributed) to contribute for the just concluded Advocacy day.
Take some funds from any money that you put aside this year for charitable causes or temple donations. All that you contribute is money well spent - as eventually it would benefit a number of people and entire families. So helping people better their lives is like contributing to charitable causes. Even $50 is good to start with. Hope that motivates all.
Hi Guys,
Just Curious, you asked for & posted the contribution very consistently on forum - now since advocacy days are over - are you going to post the break-up of expenses also in similar manner? That will motivate people (who can't make it to advocacy event) to understand the expenses & donate for future events.

Hi,
Our attorney prepared and filed our (mine and my wife's) 485, EAD and AP in July 2007.
We received our EAD and AP in 2007 and they are about to expire.
We are currently planning to renew our EAD and AP and wanted to apply on our own this time.
In that context, we requested for a copy of our application forms from the attorney.
We never got to verify the filled application forms until now (the attorney sent us only the pages to be signed at the time of filing)
To our surprise, we figured out the following mistakes in the application forms:
1) My I-94# in 485 and EAD application forms was wrongly mentioned. But I had my A# correct and it matches with the one on my EAD.
2) My wife's date of last entry in US was wrongly mentioned in 485 and EAD.
3) My mother's name was misspelled (a letter was missing from her first name)
I am not sure how bad the above mistakes are.
Here are my concerns now:
1) Are I-94# and last entry date used during namecheck or any other phase during the overall process? We didnot travel outside US since we applied 485. What if we travelled (the I-94 and last entry dates would have anyways changed).
Do we need to update these details explicitly after every travel? How important is it to get these details corrected in our applications?
2) If we apply for renewal of EAD and AP with the correct details this time, is it going to be fine? Do we still need to get them fixed in our 485?
OR
Will it be a problem for renewal because the details are different from the original application?
3) What is the procedure to follow in this situation?
Any advice in this matter is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
