I have read about some cases where ppl who had one of the PDs current, tried very aggresively and got their 485 approved. I have not seen many cases though. Everytime I research on interfiling, I always find those couple of cases so in my opinin, interfiling is not very common. Its a unknown territory as its not a paid service from USCIS.

You do not have to be single unless you have already decided on marrying someone who is not in the country at this time.
my employment is terminated a month ago. I still need to file h1 transfer to the GC sponser. I am single
I am told that H1 can be transferred only with in 10 days-20 days or so. which means that it is already a month. so in case if I dont get the h1 or if I have an issue in the H1 transfer, is that the end of my being H1.
If I were to be on H1 again is it going to come under the cap along with those new H1 filers? I still have one and half years to complete 6 years.
I have a fall back to EAD though based an approved 140 and 180 days past 485.
But how do I get the spouse then???

Eb3India,
You make very good points.
Actually a lot of folks who are beyond 6 years are themselves to blame to some extent. We did not realize that its a long process and the sooner you start the better it is.
Here's the deal. The GC process takes 4 years on average if you are from India/China. Some ppl get it it in 3 years. Some get it in 5 years. The systems is built in a way that it has to take at least 3 years. Back when labor processing used to take 2 years (1yr state + 1yr federal), the rest took 1-2 years. Now labor is really fast and the dates are retrogressed.
So, now it will take 6 months to get labor and then 2+ years of waiting for dates to become current then processing for 1 year. So about 4 years.
Off course some of us got the short end of the stick when cases got shipped to BEC's and labor took 4 instead of 2 years. and then some people are stuck in retrogression after getting out of BEC's. Its all about knowing the entire game before getting into it. I kick myself for not starting the process sooner.
So, your options are 1) Labor subs 2) Go to India and come back as L1 3) Fight the system 4) Do nothing and wait.
look I have been here for 10 years and I kick my self everyday for not getting card, if I played my cards right I should have been worrying about citizenship now :)
many of are here for good reasons of our own deed and situations which are beyound our control, 9/11, immigration politics etc. the best way to get around this either to follow some lope hole such as labor subst, L1 etc, or fight the system thru IV, or just simply wait,
complaining that someone else is getting greencard is nothing but childesh and I hate to say this as it comes from a "Highly educated" guy like who did is MS from US :D

I agree that car depreciates as soon as you drive out the showroom but what I believe is that if you can afford to buy your dream car and plan to keep it for atleast 7-10 years go for it. Life is short, if you can enjoy luxury and at the same time know your limits don't restrict yourself and drive used cars all your life.
As far as your home mortage is concerned, talk to your banker and negotiate favorable terms. If you plan to live in that city depending on job market, don't worry about home prices. I hope you did not buy that home to make money overnite but to enjoy the luxury of living and owing a home. In any case, don't plan to put money on home, better to save or invest where it makes more sense like stocks, CD's or land/home in India.
I donot see any point in paying off the house, as you can deduct the interest to get some tax benefits. Why loose any benefit you can get.
On the other hand, use the money you were thinking of paying off the home for investments. Investments may it be CDs or stocks ( though right will come in future).
Although personally i have never bought a brand new car in US. Car depreciation is biggest loss one can take; we just bought a 5 th car...all cash paid and it is used.
Keep your cash, play with 20-30% based on your risk apt, donot pay off your home...cash is king.
On your comment of " being a novice in financial "...i have to say it Everyone is a novice in every matter, we all learn it here. Rather one who says he/she is a novice will make cautious decisions; i am wary of so called experts/gurus who mauled financial markets and still call themselves experts.

Hi Friends,
I am a permanent employee for "x" company, my 140 filed on May 1,2007 waiting for approval, 485 filed on August 22,2007 not been approved either, we just got our EAD's, also please note that i am on 6th year extension on h1... my company "x" moving all projects to the different company "y" from December 1, 2007. ie we are all moving to "y" with the same job title just everything is same istead of "x" it is now "y" company.
When i called my legal department and ask them about green card status they simply said nothing to worry... everything will be moved to "y" company, as a transition exployees..
Be honest with you guys...from the last 4 days... i could not sleep... i really dont know what to do in this situation, this is the reason.. i am seeking your help. can some one guide me or answer below questions please.
1. 140 filed 05/01/2007 - 11/30/2007 more than 180 days with "X" company
2. 485 filed 08/22/2007 - 11/30/2007 more than 90 days with "x" company
3. EAD approved
4. Travel documents approved
5. I am on H1 6th year extension.
6. Transition employee.
my question is
1 Can my green card status remains the same and continue the process with the new "y" company ?
2.Do "y" company has to start processing labour/140 again ??
3.Is it doable that moving everything from "x" to "y" including GC processings ??
Thanks in advance...Kindly help me out in this situation like how to proceed from here
With sincere regards...
Desy
Can undrstand your anxiety and hope things will workout for you.
But your details are sketchy...what do you mean by all the projects from your current company are being moved to another company: is the new company Y is buying your current company X. Then you might be OK. I remember reading somewhere that - in case of a merger your application for I140/I485 will not be disturbed if the new company takes over all the assets/debts of the old company. Search in these forums on company merger (more on other popular forums) and you will get more info. Understand the agreement between the two companies (your current X and new Y) - if its a straight forward acquisition (taking over assets and also debts and all previous agreed upon contacts) then you will be fine - I know because I have been thru an acquision during a pending I140.

If Applicants receive a 221(g) notice with a questionnaire asking about job experience/edcuation backgrond, that is usually "additional administrative processing" associated with TAL (Technology alert check). thsi takes around 30-45 days in most cases. Other 221(g) reasons could be just for employer/document verification (which is what it seems in your case).
Timelines are varied but in most cases peopel get approval in a month or so. But the wait is nerve-wracking. Just stay positive and be aware that these checks are happening frequently nowadays.
Once you get your visa and travel back, please join in IV's push to get I485 (3rd stage of green card) filing without current PD. spread the message among your friends/colleagues.
these kind of issues while visa stamping and also while h1b extensions are the main reason why our situation is so fragile when on H1B. all the more reason to get any admin fixes that will help people stuck without being able to file I485.

Friends I think a great injustice is being done to NSC filers , their applications are taking months for ead and ap, while TSC filers are getting ead adn AP as soon as they get receipt, do you think this will improve for NSC in future, at this time looks like august NSC filers will haveto wait till the end of the year for EAD,ap, which is sad.

What happens to an employee at any company who has done something positive but has been caught abusing his colleagues a few times. He gets warned by HR first and then gets fired right.
We have lot of things to focus on to get relief for our community and there is no reason to tolerate this behaviour towards fellow members.
what abt all the positive remakes given..??

My wife worked as a consultant for first half of 2008 with a desi employer as an employee (on W-2). After many calls and emails we received W-2 Thursday that has income and taxes of only first two months. Now he says that he showed remaining 4 months as his profit so he can only send 1099. Please advise if I can take any legal action against this employer.
Thank you
There is an option in turbo tax, if you didnot receive the w-2 from employer you need to submit another form. So explore that one and will give you more information.
I guess if you are submitting that form, IRS will take care of your employer issue. Otherwise just call the Trubo Tax people if you are using them.

Why not? They have to send the receipt notice on time. They have to send AP / EAD within certain days. Immigrants plan certain events based on these laws. If anyone decides to prepare and file a lawsuit for not getting EAD, he/she could do it now as per the law. Some one said, there is a law that they should be giving EAD in 90 days.
Again EAD is valid for only one year. You have to file in advance and you will get one year from the date of filing or approval I am not sure. If you dont get EAD on time, then youare not supposed to work. PERIOD. If this happens a lot, then lawsuit is for sure from someone like me who have family with two kids and play by rules. I have strong backing of my company HR.
If I interpret correctly you are saying because USCIS will not like to work on so many EADs and APs year after year AND SO they themselves will seek increase in annual GC numbers to clear up the mess. I wish your predictions would turn out to be true.:)
However, if enough EB GC numbers are not available, USCIS can not be repsonsibe for this. They have corrected the one mistake they did with the visa bulletin fiasco. I don't see any other basis for additional lawsuits.
