From immigration-law website.
The State Department has released the update. The sudden backlog reduction efforts by Citizenship and Immigration Services Offices during the past month have resulted in the use of almost 60,000 Employment numbers. As a result of this unexpected action it has been necessary to make immediate adjustments to several previously announced cut-off dates. All Citizenship and Immigration Services Offices have been notified of the following: Effective Monday July 2, 2007 there will be no further authorizations inresponse to requests for Employment-based preference cases. All numbers available to these categories under the FY-2007 annual numerical limitation have been made available. Employment preference numbers will once again be available to these chargeability areas beginning October 1, 2007, under the FY-2008 annual numerical limitation.
If visa number is unavailable in the Visa Bulletin, it appears that the USCIS is unable to accept the 485 applications under the USCIS regulation. It is thus likely that all the applications which they received or will receive today may be rejected and returned. The current situation is different from the other worker cases rejection in June in that in that case, the State Department did not officially revised the Visa Bulletin. However, we will have to wait and see the anticipated announcement from the USCIS.
This Visa Bulletin revision also implies that there will be no EB-485 approvals during July, August, and September 2007!!!!! Accordingly all the recent approvals practically ended as of July 1, 2007 and there will be no adjudication of any employment-based I-485 applications. For the reasons, those EB-485 waiters who fail to receive the approval notices within this week will have to endure further hardships and emotional trauma. Now, people understand what Washington did to them. Had they passed the SKIL bill, all of these problems would have disappeared. We still wonder who invented the point system that helped to induce the business community to oppose the CIR and partially killed the bill. History will tell.

Thanks for the reply.
1. I got my H1B extended while I am here in US. After going back to India, are there any issues in getting the visa revalidated, since an immigration petition has been filed on my behalf?
--This should not be a problem, since the H1-B is a dual-intent visa
2. Is H1-B extension based on I-140 possible when not in US?
--Yes. Moreover, if you are in India for a year or more, your 6-year clock starts again.
HTH.

This morning I received a phone call from NAVRS (appointment system) about my H1B appointment.
The phone call was to give me a heads up that my visa might require an additional 2 weeks processing time (has any one received similar calls)?
My I485 is currently pending with a priority date of Jan-2007 (EB2) and this is my 3-year extension, last extension was stamped at US consulate of Toronto (2nd extension).
Can anyone share his or her experience in a similar situation?
Thanks
Amit

Hi,
I was a Donor few of months ago. Since last month, I am not able to see Donor forum or see my membership as "Donor". Wondering if there are any changes made to qualify one as "Donor"?

I am July filer got 485 RFE
seems like my prev attorney made a mistake and answered yes to "Have you ever before applied for permanent resident status in the U.S"
- well this is going to cost me
My question(s)
i changed job(and company) do i need to send AC21 along with RFE response.
and also can i send my medical records along with RFE (medical records i submitted are incomplete and says chickenpox vaccination needed now i am vaccinated and got the records of it).
if yes do i still need USCIS doctor to submit these medical records.

My take on this issue is that , for a non-profit institution the minumun wage determination for LCA is not based on the market rate but infact depends on the internal salary rate for the employees in the same organization at similar levels .
Hope this helps.

Does that not indicate a problem that needs to be fixed instead of ignored as you have done Philip Wolgin?
Good job Philip Wolgin, completely ignored the Employment based category haven't you?
Lets just build the future of the country with school kids, uncles, aunties, refugees and farmers.
Who needs Intelligent and skilled workers anyway that can speak out against such stupidity.

Hello all,
1. Is it Ok to go a few days early to Dallas ASC for finger printing ? I won't be in town on the scheduled FP date and I am reluctant to reschedule.
2. Is there a time of day at Dallas ASC that is not so crowded, so that the ASC may not mind Walk ins ?

HI guys,
Can anyone guide me about the process of getting extension while I-140 is pending in appeal with AAO.
I filed the appeal in January and got the receipt that I-140 is send to AAO. As we know that now it will take about 9-11 months for the final decision. My H1b 7 th year is expiring in June 2008. Does any have had the similar experience of filing extension while pending appeal. Also, how early should I file for the extension.
Please advise.

Dear IV members,
We have a very big media opportunity to have our voices heard. A high profile reporter is writing a story with a slighly different angle by covering the immigration plight of our muslim members.
IV does not ask or maintain data on religion/faith/ethinicity of our members and we do not differentiate members based on such criterias.
However it is a need of this reporter and we wish to help in getting this story out in a major newspaper with immigration issues we are fighting for.
If you have a compelling story and you are a muslim IV member, please contact me or Salil (raydhan@immigrationvoice.org) from IV core ASAP with your contact and a brief detail about your plight.
Pappu, In one of the midwest calls i attended there was a member from Pakistan who had a Sorry story to tell. I dont remember his name. Get in touch with PASKAL who leads the efforts from Midwest(Minnesota). He should be able to point you to the right person.

My husband's employer filed for green card under EB-1 (OR). I-140 got approved, I-485 is pending. I already did my fingerprinting. My husband's is scheduled for next week. We did not get EAD or AP yet.
Meanwhile I need to travel to Europe on business. I have a valid H-1 to re-enter US. Would my AP get approved before I return to US? If so, can I still enter with my valid H-1? My husband is planning to delay his biometrics until I get back. Are there any problems with this plan? Please advise

I know people work for county on EAD, but can one be employed by the US government on EAD?
I work for State government on EAD. My agency's HR didnot/does not have any knowledge, had to involve local Immigration lawyers and State immigration lawyers to educate them. I have to be forthcoming and provide/sign new I-9's whenever my EAD is renewed.

Have you received finger print requests?
yes I did for the I-485 after one or two month since I got my recipt number ...
Is your PD current?
I don't know what is PD stands for !...
Is the Service Center processing I 485 applications around the RD of your 485 application?
I don't know how to check that , because when I click on the checking by the RD of the file in the service center , it doesn't show any I-485 on the list !...
and what is the IV ?
THank you soooo much in adance for all the informatioin.

One has to maintain at least 6 months of validity in the passport if on H1
(for visa and for traveling); although not strictly implemented, this might create problems. Next, an expired passport is not considered to be a valid ID document.
Is there any problem if your passport is expired while on H1 visa?
Do we need to get the passport renewed before it is expiring?
