I have similar situation - I applied for 140 in July 2006. My daughter will turn 21 in July 2007. As I have applied for 140 before she turns 21, she is safe for GC, but will loose H4 status when she turns 21. As per my lawyer's advice I have applied for her F1 so that she can stay and continue her studies in US. When I become eligible to apply for 485, she can be included in the application - but, not as a dependent of H1B holder.
The date of petition - Is it the date one applied for the Labor Certificate, or the date of submission of I-140 petition?

Thanks in advance.

But in not "voting with our feet" we are part of the problem. Just imagine, if a substantial fraction of H1 visa holders left the US tomorrow (and quoted the backlogs as the cause) wouldn't that get more attention than all our efforts so far?
You are dead right .. but a bigger contributing factor is the fact that a vast majority of GC applicants come from a small number of highly populated labor-surplus countries, with a virtually infinite stream of young people itching to land here even if we go back ... the demand from our home countries is as big an issue as our reluctance to go back. Thats why you see corporates lobbying heavily for H1-B visas, but not as much for EBs.Simple supply and demand.
But, this game isnt going to go on forever. Those people who want to come here are not idiots. The prime reason so many students and skilled workers choose to come here rather some other developed country is because of the possibility of settling here .. when this turns out to be a mirage and word spreads about our plight, the trend will reverse dramatically. The only question is how soon .. we are definitely in a position to accelerate that.

A 700billion$ bailout is not helping much. You think we can help the economy? We are at the mercy of the employers whose earning results are going down because of recession. :( It is hard for me to believe that we can help the economy by buying houses and how are the law makers going to get convinced? Show me the proof.

Search immigration.com ("i-140 denied, urgent help please"). I went thru this, attorney was so-so, not experienced in handling cases like this as he is a small firm. So I went to one of the BIG firms and got it MTR'd and cleared in 3 weeks. I spent 3K, but never thought about it before or after.
While you work on backup options, dont just let go the current status that you got in 4-6 yrs.
The new attorney could easily make up for the pay.

This is a Tricky situation.you need Medical leave for your child but 4 months is a bit too long. Pls.contact your Attorney about the consequences of taking 4 Months leave on H1B visa.make sure your HR provides you with all the Paper work that your Attorney might ask to substantiate your leave.
My LC and I140 approved (PD: may 2004). Applied 485 on Aug 8.
I became father last month.
My new born son is sick and he needs total attention for next 4 months. I have used up all my vacation and planning to apply for medical leave. Pediatrician recommends me getting medical leave and support my wife.
I work in a very big hardware company. I have completed 3.5yrs in H1B so far.f I apply for medical leave, I may get a pay cut (like 20 to 30%). Will I be affected because of this medical leave? Are H1B's allowed to take medical leave (upto 4 months)..
Your comments are very much appreciated.
thanks

Interfiling
�MurthyDotCom
The USCIS confirmed that it will continue to permit interfiling of I-485s when a person obtains two I-140 petition approvals. Interfiling is essentially the transfer of a pending I-485 application to adjust status from one I-140 petition to another filed for the same beneficiary. Examples would be when there is a successor employer, or an I-140 petition filed by a new employer or with the same employer based on a new and different job offer. This eliminates the need to re-file the I-485 in many situations, if there is a second I-140 petition to support the pending I-485.
So if your second I-140 is approved you'll be able to interfile if you want to but I do not see the problem with filing the second I-140 while one is already pending.
Thanks for your reply. The says that "The USCIS confirmed that it will continue to permit interfiling of I-485s when a person obtains two I-140 petition approvals." It is talking about approved I-140s. Thats what my understanding too. But my lawyer says that they "The employer can file (or interfile) an I-140 even though the priority date is not current. The priority date retrogression comes into play only when filing or processing an I-485 Adjustment of Status application"
I am not sure that "interfiling an I-140 even though the priority date is not current" is true or not? Any advice please???

Why don't you find someone who is in similar situation ? i.e. who is on EAD or on H1. There several websites that can help you : shaadi.com, jeevansathi.com, bharatmatrimony.com. Now I'm not endorsing these sites. Just providing you with some options you can look at. Man accept it - life is tough. We have to play the hand we have been dealt. Also remember one more important quote:
No one dies a virgin - Life screws us all.

Guys,
The reality is that we are just being played upon by the companies and the US govt regarding green cards. Employers know that we are not going to budge from our jobs to maintain the coveted priority date and the government is in no big hurry to reform the system as they can collect taxes from us without being accountable to us.
I think Democrats are also going to drag the immigration issue as seen by the article below :
http://www.suntimes.com/news/otherviews/151357,CST-EDT-Perez28.article
I do not mean to doubt IV, but the writing is on the wall that our lobbying efforts are not going to go too far.
For all of you single people out there, the only fastest option is to marry a US girl/guy. For all those who are married, the choices are simple, forget the American dream and adopt a Canadian or Australian dream or endure the uncertainty of a green card application.
I have reached the conclusion that I cannot bear this uncertainty any more and therefore, I am pursuing other options. Ciao...Good luck to all those waiting for a GC!
I am unsure whether things will be all rosy once you explore the other attractive options. Think of the time you have already invested here in the US. Will you give up without a fight?

What do you want to know? I130 and I485 needs to be filed. Both Counselor Processing as well as AOS allowed.
This is current Priority Date
--- China ---- India
2A 01OCT03 01OCT03 For Spouse and Children
2B 01NOV99 01NOV99 For Unmarried children above 21
For EB based guys, my understanding is that this PD is same as Labor Certification PD which was used for GC - correct me if I am wrong.
Found this one on the internet... maybe someone can help to give more information about K-3 visa ...

I'm in the same boat, FPd on 9/20 no LUD so far. Besides calling FBI FP phone number and checking with them if the results have been sent to USCIS you can't do anything other than waiting. FP has nothing to do with name check.
Some people got LUD after FP and some didn't ( like me). Please do a Google search "FP no LUD" and you will see various forums in , Immigrationportal, IV and murthy talking about the same and there is no black and white answer. Good news is some people even got green card without any update on the LUD.
Yes I agree it's frustrating but our options are limited at this point :(
