One way to get reciept notice or anything else for that matter is to file G-28 and change attorney on record. Second would be to file for Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and asking for all the records. Here what I gathered from Murthy Chat
Chat User : When the employer sponsors and retains the I-485 receipt without processing the EAD/AP, can an individual apply for an EAD mentioning the receipt number without jeopardizing GC processing?
Attorney Murthy : Yes, a person may file the EAD with just the receipt number on the Form I-765 without jeopardizing the I-485 processing. The EAD and AP are merely incidental benefits and are not directly connected with the I-485 processing or adjudication.
BumbleB
BumbleB,
Even if I can apply for EAD/AP, will I be able to change employer using AC21 without the receipt notice? Using G28 may not be an option before 6 months as the current lawyer is hired and paid by the employer.
How much time does FOIA take?
Thanks

Can some one with good english skills prepare an email with heading like
'Please approve my status from legal to ILLEGAL.' include all points from rajesh_kamisetty and any other similar questions.
And everyone in this forum can send that out to every newspaper and every senator in this country. I believe this can open their eyes little bit.
Think guys. If there is decent letter I promise that I can stay whole night to send to all these guys.
I sent this to a lot of people
Do you say that being illegal, undocumented is better rewarded than being Legal Skilled Professional in US?
Yes I am talking about C-I-R (Compromise Immigration Reform) 2007 and how all the High Skilled Professionals are affected by this. High skilled professional who helped to build the economy for years basically are not rewarded for being legal and paying taxes. The "grand compromise" plan of the US Senate inadvertently (we hope) favors the undocumented over the highly skilled legal immigrants. We are sure the intention of the senators was not to ask the highly skilled legal immigrants to throw away their documents and get in line with the undocumented.
We, all high skilled professionals and ImmigrationVoice.org (12,000+ members) are extremely disappointed by this proposed bill and we would like to oppose this entirely and would like new amendments to benefit our basic needs.
# Increase the Quota from 140,000; NOT reduce to 90,000
# Remove the country limit even for High Skilled Professionals too.
# Provide provision to apply for adjustment of status even when the visa
numbers are not available.
# New Merit based system put the Skilled professional back in the line and also increase the points earned for high
Skilled professionals at least equal to unskilled labors
# Legal status of many individuals will be in jeopardy as important provisions from AC-21 are being removed by Congress
And it would difficult for non-immigrant like h-1b to renew after 6 years.
Give high-skilled legal immigrants a fair deal! That is all we are asking for
Immigration Voice (www.immigrationvoice.org) is a non-profit national grassroots organization committed to feasible solutions to a broken employment-based immigration process. Immigration Voice is advocating for technical changes that will improve the quality of life of several individuals that are stuck in the backlogs/delays, and help the system to work as it was intended.

hmm..
looks like I might be able to claim my parents
they are here since july last week..so around 160 days this year and were here last year for 3 months, so one-thirs of that is 30
so have a total of 190 (which is more than 183)
Substantial Presence Test (http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/international/article/0,,id=96352,00.html)
Does this have an impct on the GC though ?
I mean, I see that is a prefectly legal thing to do but does USCIS have a problem with that....

AFAIK, those who become ligible to receive stimulus in 2008 can claim stimulus of previous year. IRS will post information - how to claim it.
UPDATE: Refer to (Thanks gc_dedo) irs has already posted ...
There is no fresh memo for becoming ligible, it still holds that both filing jointly should have SSN. If one was not having SSN (in 2007) and could not get last year (in 2008) still won't get stimulus - unless ligibility is changed by IRS and ITIN is brought into it.
I am not sure how much this mechanism works - file alone to get stimulus and then modify return by filing jointly. People who have done this (with 2007 return) should post their experience of returns of 2008 - whether IRS allowed it or not.

When I applied last year I got it for 9 months and for 1 yr when I applied in 2009, eventhough my priority date is not current. I called them on 90th day after my application was filed and that has triggered something and I got my EAD in a week. I assume they have plenty of work load and in order to clear EAD applications they are just approving with out any emphasis on priority dates and with whatever duration they like.
This erratic EAD approval process causes financial loss to all EAD applicants effected.

The GOP "Pledge": What's Not In It | Mother Jones (http://motherjones.com/mojo/2010/09/gop-pledge-whats-not-it)
The House Republicans on Thursday released a manifesto outlining what they intend to do should they triumph in the coming congressional elections. The glossy document, which is adorned with photographs of the Statue of Liberty, Mt. Rushmore, and cowboys, is high-mindedly titled "A Pledge to America: A New Governing Agenda Built on the Priorities of Our Nation, the Principles We Stand For & America's Founding Values." And it offers few surprises: tax cuts for all (including the super-rich), slashing federal spending (without specifying actual targets), downsizing government, more money for the military (especially missile defense), and repealing the health care bill.
You can read it yourself. Or peruse the reviews:......But here's a short-cut for you. Below is a list of words and phrases and the number of times they are each mentioned in the 45-page "Pledge."

Haha. That is an accurate assessment at a 50-foot level. I was pretty disillusioned after a couple of years of working. A mixture of what the fuck am I doing, but not really knowing what to do, and all confused because I was at probably the biggest firm around and and a feeling of even if I switch, what's the point? And not having the balls to switch jobs, for the fear of throwing away what I had, mixed with personal struggles with life and not having the social life that I wanted.
In between all this, the desire to get the GC process kicked off came and went, esp. since I wanted to switch positions to a more people oriented role, and the feeling of gosh, do I want to stay in 6+ years in this job - maybe if I file, then I won't want to change jobs.
As you can see, even I am not sure what was going on there. But my personal life and acclimatizing has sorted itself out rather well of late, and I do want to stay here now that I have a really interesting life (and partly out of fear of throwing everything away and moving somewhere new).
Now, I know that IV is not a self-help trauma group, so I will cut short my story here, which has little to do with the raw facts of my immigration situation :)
And yes, I did not participate or know much about the visa process, or IV till recently, and am a recent need based participant, but I hope that does not stop anyone from contributing their ideas to help me out.
*** Also, to the previous poster (nojoke) who said that big companies usually hold off on perms, are you suggesting that I have a better chance at a smaller company then?
UPDATE: My company attorney suggested talking about this in April, and I am nervous about waiting till then in limbo - things are only going bad to worse, I might as well find a job at a place which will sponsor a PERM sooner rather than later.
I request you to PM me if you have any leads for such companies might still be a good bet for filing a PERM.
uhh..damn immigration process..
Yes, you may be better of in a smaller private owned companies that will do perm and are in a strong position. This downturn will get worse...Even if you want to wait and see what your attorney has to say in April, you can try to look for other jobs and be ready with options..

Guys,
Finally my problem and my questions are solved.
I drove up to the Canadian Border near Niagara Falls (Buffalo), they Canaidan Border Officials took my I-94. I took a drive in canada for 10 minutes. I even stopped at spot to view the Niagara Falls from Canadian side and drove back into US. I was issued a new I-94 with out any additional interogation.
What surprised me was my Canadian Visa expired on 09/01/2007 and i was still allowed to enter into Canada.
Anyways Thank you guys for all your responses.
I am kind of relieved related to my issue related to I-94.
GC_DREAMER_485
Good it all worked out for you. I am sure they stamped your passport on the way back into USA. Just keep track of your intrnational travel at some point it might be required, you might loose track of them if you don't have exit or entry stamps on your passport.
Good luck,

You want to see the March VB:) ?
Why waste time? Just look at Feb VB..it will be the ditto copy n paste.
The lazy html programmer might have already cut it by now. He will take 3 days to paste it into a new page. After all that 'hard work', he will bring out a broken link on the 4th day.
Really getting tired of this monthly ritual!

As a victim of identity theft, I can tell you first hand that there is serious potential that this could be an issue. There is no guarantee that the person who received your document will return it first off. What if he simply throws in the trash? USPS makes mistakes all the time. What if your package is placed by USPS in someone else's mailbox? Or what if CIS puts the wrong address on the package?
Anyway, bottomline it has potential but I do not know that we can do anything at this point other than worry and hope.

I'm afraid of same things too...Hope something will work out.
Based on Assement in this article, it almost seems that the chances of STRIVE are dead even before it goes to House Immigration Commettee. I am not trying to be negative or something but the article has such a tone. I can understand that Pelosi did not schedule any timing but what concerns me most is the fact that
"California Democrat Zoe Lofgren, who chairs the Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship, Refugees, Border Security and International Law, will hold hearings before marking up any bill"
Now we all know how one sided these hearings are and how long they take. In nutshell these hearings give chance to any tom, dick and harry to express his opinion and create melodrama. We already worry about melodrama of people such as Sen Sessions in the Senate. Add this drama, and it can easily eat the short window we have to get the relief. I really hope I am wrong here but I have a bad feeling about this :(:mad:

Is it too much to ask Google to put a Diwali logo like it does for Hanukkah or Christmas .. at least if not in google.com but in google.co.in?
Also is it too much to expect American mainstream media to totally NOT ignore Diwali which has significance for the second largest population in the world and instead publish significantly less significant story of the balloon boy?
Is it too much to ask for to include Diwali in the spell check for this editor? (Not wailing or Gwalior ...)
It is this mentality of deliberately ignoring the feeling of majority of the world population that is getting the western civilization more and more isolated and retracted.
Well it doesn't really matter. And I am visiting India now and I can see that this country and China will definitely kick ass of Western civilization .. as it is already doing. The people here are hungry for more and in spite of seemingly unsurmountable problems it will succeed and once again India will be the "Sone Ke Chiriya".
With this thoughts and wishing peace .. happy and prosperous diwali to everyone.
May Lord Rama bless the world.
Wow.. I don't understand why we always make a big fuss of such things. Do we think that we are so special or we are just too sensitive because of our inferiority complex. Invent something that will change the world for better, win some gold medals in Olympics, improve the quality people by building better infrastructure, innovate and accomplish and the world will automatically notice. And yes, don't be an hypocrite, go back and do something good if you truly believe in it. Change starts within and courage to accept one's weakness leads to strength. Patting yourselves in the back for the achievement made so far only bring complacency and my friend we have a long way to go!
Cheers
