in short ,,they stop processing ur case once ur date rerogresses....!!!
Hi,
With all the respect this is not true; at least not all the time. As far as I know, and according to my observations, I485s are being pre-adjucated even if their priority dates are not current. They seem to work on such I 485s as far as they can, and once their priority dates become current, the USCIS information system flags them so that they can be adjucated. Sometimes, however, it takes a few months since USCIS has a backlog of I485s and some of the things like FPs must be done again. I have at least 2 friends who got approval a month after their PDs became current. In fact, on of them got a 3FP notice right after his PD became current, and 2 weeks later received the approval.
I think it all depends on many factors, but I would not agree with your statement that USCIS stops 485 processing once the PD retrogresses.
Regards,

Personally, if I am not going to get a GC, I would much prefer loosing 20-25% of the PPF and have some chance of recovering the remainder from the "babus" than loosing all of it to the US government that considers me ineligible for benefits that I have already paid for in full. Its a positive sign that the Indian govt, whatever its vested interest may be, has at least considered taking up this issue.
Lets not nitpick on corruption and nepotism in our home countries. Its no secreat that it exists here as well - except that it goes by different names such as premium processing, amnesty etc and the whole thing is more streamlined and marketed with a positive spin on it.Nobody has experienced that more than us. And yeah, I am being cynical here.

If they process by RD, then this month TONS of people with 2007/2006 PD will apply for 485 along with 1999-2005 guys.
So if 1999-2000 guys are even late a day, then they will be behind 10k people (Assuming 10K files per day). If USCIS processes 100 applications per month, then a delay in single day cause delay of a year.
Again, I pray for those guys who are still stuck with BEC with PDs 2000-01-02-03-04-05. Their situation is really bad.
This will be a catch 22 situation. If they retrogress to 2004, then how would they know to process the 485 application based on PD. They will keep on processing the 485 based on RD. If they see some PD of 2004 or earlier, they will approve else they will continue the 485 processing.
In this case, it is better for people with later PD 2005-2006-2007 to wait for couple of weeks in July and file later. This will make sure no VISA number is lost in coming years if they could process some earlier PD cases. Just a thought.
Example: July 2nd-10th, if 100K 2006/2007 PD cases were filed and July 11th-20th 100k 2000-2004 PD cases were filed and the VB has 2004 as current date. In this case, USCIS spends time in processing non current PD 485 applications for a year or two. Ultimately the visa numbers are lost.
In a way it is always RD, even if it is retrogressed, they process by RD within the eligible cases with some exception scenarios.

Just call IRS and they will talk to your employer for your W2. This has happened with me and stupid indian company "Hexaware" shipped it to me overnight past year after I called IRS. Guess what I also got useless call from so called "Big shots" to apologize for the situation and withdraw the complaint.
Employers cannot hold your W2. If you can prove with paystubs that you could not file tax returns because they refused to provide W2, IRS will get them. I am sure they wouldn't want to get into trouble with uncle sam just because of ego.

In Florida, one has to show an EVL before they give the one year "temporary" license. I wonder what happens when your H-1B expires and your renewed H-1B has not arrived, sit at home:confused:
In one word - YES !!! the DL office in georgia would not renew my license even 1 day early ..my old EAD was expiring in 6 days and I had my new EAD in hand. went to DL office and asked them to renew ..they said come when old license expires ,,I said I would need to take a holiday just for renewal - they said - not our problem.
I said - I would be driving on expired license when I come to DL office ..they said talk to immigration ..I said do you know legal immi and USCIS is broken :)
I told my manager ...these guys cannot even add 2 plus 2 ...(old ead expiring on 5th and new one starting from 6th )

Very well written article.
American have heard ad nauseum the concept of anchor babies from Lou Dobbs and his ilk.
We need to introduce them to the concept of "ANCHOR JOBS" ie what we do. We anchor the jobs of leading industries to the USA so that the rest of the economy can continue to flourish based on those jobs and the spin offs.
We need to let the ordinary american know that it is in his/her best interest for us to help keep cutting edge american industries here.
The few lazy american techies who make 6 figure salaries and yet still want more, need to be exposed for what they really are.............protectionist losers who put self interest above country. Unfortunate that they take that route rather than see the real shortages in the industries of tomorrow. They really are in pole position to make money out of it as well, if they just developed some entrepreneurship.

since there are many knowledgeable guys here ..I had another question - is there a law which says how the spillover should take place ? i.e. EB2(W) should go to EB2(I) etc ? I wonder why they don't send the extra visa's to the category that is in the worst position ..EB3 - I in this case ?
Only ROW EB3 spillover can make it to EB3 India and as ROW itself is retrogressed, that will not happen.
However, if you check 2007 assignments, Eb3 India got over 10K visas, though the stipulated limit is around 3K.

Nothing much is going to happen.she clearly has said 6039 is gone.So recapturing no doubt its also gone.

I havnt received my AP applied Jun 29 2007.Nebraska.
Whenever we call them they have a standard answer 30 days,then 60 days.
Latest 30 days.
Its the same for GC too.
They are least bothered.CHC must have been everything.Is every immigrant genious,scientists,doctors,engineers like they have argued.They cannot build wall with only so called expected genious.
Discrimination to the core.
Not even next summer.
may be they will do for amnesty.so they can again boycott us and be busy with those applications.Lawyers can also earn well.
Great! God bless us.

Sorry to hear about your situation. You should've taken unpaid leave for two weeks instead of a lay off. Now you definitely should not file AC21 and hope that the USCIS will not issue RFE (rarely happens). It doesn't matter how you quit, if the USCIS finds about it, it will probably deny I-485.
Regarding Shusterman's Q&A. I am not sure where is he coming from. The law does not provide for lay-off exception.
Recently I heard that if you are laid off from the company, then the 180 days period won't come into picutre and you can very well move to another company, provided your I-140 is approved and not revoked. I think they have made some modifications recently to the law on this type of cases. Talk to your Lawer to find out these changes.

140jibjab,
im also in similar situation. wife wants divorce, but since she doesnt want to return to india, she has applied for H1 lottery and waiting. She is working on EAD and requested me to keep her dependent till 2008 october.
we have applied for divorce in india and we will keep the final judge hearing in october 2008.
i asked my lawyer how to handle 485 situation: this is what he said
1. there is no formal process to remove a 485 application.
2. after u get ur divorce decree, take an infopass appointment and explain/ask what shud be done.
3. he said - most probably, the officer will ask ur WIFE to submit a informal letter requesting abandonment of 485 appln due to divorce, along with copy of divorce decree.
4. in case ur wife does not follow up becos she is not in the country etc, you urself can request abandonement for ur spouse.
5. keep record of the letters and correspondence with infopass/USCIS becos incase u remarry and reintroduce a new 485 for new wife, INCASE they raise a flag that u already have a derivative, then u can use the correspondence proof to show old deravative is not valid anymore due to divorce.
6. Lawyer also said, there have been cases where in abandonment letters were sent, and yet GC arrived in mail. basically he told my wife, if ur lucky and i dont get married before 485 approval, there is still chance u will get ur gc inspite of indian divorce being complete. (looks like US dept does not proactively refer foreign records of marraige at the tme of adjudication).
hope this helps...i plan to follow same procedure after my divorce finalizes.

Xenophobia (fear of foreigners) has always been high in the US, though not always on the surface. Most probably we remind them of their own history of invading the native american's land, killing him and occupying his land.
Back in the 1850s, Ireland went through the great potato famine which killed millions. A number of survivors migrated to the US where they met with hostility from local Americans who were scared these foreigners would take away their jobs. This has been going on since 150 years and is not a recent development.
In 1997, unemployment in the US was zero and so no American felt threatened by foreign presence. The sun was shining, the birds were chirping and everything was hunky-dory for new immigrants. However, the situation is considerbly different today with increased outsourcing and brown desis seen everywhere in the US - especially in walmarts.
With all this, it is inevitable that an immigration reform that will put an end to all our woes is not going to happen. However, we can try our best and hopefully expect at least some reprieve in the forthcoming revamp. If not, then we have Bangalore, Hyderabad and Noida where we do not have to spend an average of 2 hours everyday brooding over immigration issues.
