You can still get a 1 year extension claiming that your PERM application is still pending. It all depends on the officer that the decision has not been made on PERM application.

Government officials as well as immigration lawyers have been implicated in several recent corruption cases. Here are some of the cases that have made news in the last few days: USDOJ announced a ICE official was sentenced in a kickback scheme involving a confidential informant in an alien smuggling investigation. A former official at the US Consulate in Toronto was sentenced to a year in prison for a scheme where visas were expedited in exchange for gifts and trips with exotic dancers. A Utah lawyer stands accused of massive fraud in securing H-2B visas for ineligible workers. A Beverly Hills...

so many complications, so many rules to know - we might as well be immigration attorneys!! we (or at least some of us) pretty much know more about the INS and immigration laws than the average immigration attorney :D

Hi There,
My 485 application is pending at TSC on EB3 category, country of chargebility is Inida. Yesterday my PERM labor approved on EB2 category and need to apply 140 to recapture my own EB3 PD.
My employer will come under NSC. if the PD recaptured, I will be hardly one month away from my priority date to be current, as per the current visa bulletin dates.
So can you please provide some suggestion to which Service Center will be opt for filing EB2 140 now, in order for getting an optimal process for 140 and eventually 485?
Or does the service center really matters as it will take a very long time for me to get greened?
Thanks,
B+ve.
AFAIK, you are required to file these applications with the NSC. How and why cases get transferred to TSC is not known - mostly speculation.
This isn't legal advice - just based on information I have read up a while back - not sure if anything has changed in the last couple of years...

Nothing positive? Check this out:
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=22242
There were those who got their I-140 cleared under EB2 and were practically jumping with joy at the door closing behind them. Some were even taking credit for the move :)
That would be devastating! I dont see any positives out of that move.

My new employer (Company "B") ready to start the process again, but would like to keep this PD.
Once again thats for your reply.

My self and my wife both are on H1B. Both are working for different companies.
I filled I 485, EAD and AP through my company, for my self and my wife.
Questions:
1) I am the primary person. After getting the EAD, Is it possible, If my wife can open a consulting company with her name?
2) After opening a consulting company on her name, Is it possible, she can leave her H1B employer and run her own paystubs on her own company.
Your help will be really appreciated. :)

Please find below my case details:
i.Started on L1A in Dec 2001
ii.Applied for a new H1 in June 2005 with start date as Oct 1,2005(New H1 application) : Came to US on H1 in Mar 2006 with "I 94 and Petition End Date(PED)" as Dec 2007.
iii.Since Dec 2001 till Mar 2006, have been in India for totalling 10 months (2.5 months in 2003, 1.5 months 2004, 6 months during 2005-2006).
With the assumption that I can recapture the time spent outside US (10 months), the six year clock ends in Oct 2008. If so, to get 7th year extension
would it work as long as the Labour is filed before Oct 2007.
Am I correct in this assessment or does the 6 year clock indeed ends in "Dec 2007" (as in my I94/PED) and I should have the Labour filed before Dec 2006.
Any thoughts? Appreciate your comments.
Thanks very much in advance.
you have enough time to get started with your labor. earlier the better. have your company start your labor in a couple of months so that do dont have to worry about all the nitty gritties of recapture of time. yes one can recapture the time with a petition. less legal work is less money paid and less headache in my opinion.

thanks for your reply.what do you mean by consular processing?
could i do anything to retain my L1 visa status?
my current H1 employer is least helpful.i am getting worried and would like to continue in L1 for few months until i get a suitable opportunity.pls tell me how i can do that.
pls help.
Consular processing is requesting that the H-1 be approved and you will go to the consulate in your home country to pick up the visa and come back on a new H-1, in this situation, you are not requesting for a change of status when you file for a H-1. Your attorney will know how to file a consular processing case.

I recently did apply for EAD and the documents required are as below
1. Personal check or Money order for 380$. I prefer sending personal check so that i can know if my check was cashed.
2. I did paper filing and not e-Filing. Some say efile is better some say paper filing is better , i felt paper filing is easy and better , as we can track our documents sent.
3. Docs req are
1. Filled EAD Application form
2. your 485 receipt notice copy
3. Current Addresss proof. electricity bill, water bill etc.
3.Copy of the biographic page of passport for each applicant
4. i-94 Copy
5. 2 Photographs
6. SSN copy ( i put it as my attorney suggested but its not mandatory)
7. copy of driver licence
With e-file too, they instantly cash your payment via credit card or debit card. So, you can keep track of it.

Dallas-Fort Worth Immigration Lawyer Has Just Posted the Following:
Nearly 300 illegal immigrants with criminal convictions were arrested last week in Texas, the Dallas Morning News (http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/texassouthwest/stories/022510dnmeticeraids.1572cfa1e.html) reports. The largest number of arrests, 119, were in North Texas. According to the article:
Of the total, about half of the immigrants had convictions for violent crimes or drug offenses. Most of the crimes were committed in the United States, authorities said.
The arrests, though, raises questions about why the immigrants hadn’t been deported earlier, immediately after they'd served their time for criminal convictions.
A new program, called Secure Communities, seeks to link jail staff with federal data banks to ensure that those with criminal convictions are removed from the country. There are only 110 jail locations in the country that now use the program.
Secure Communities has come under scrutiny for the relatively low number of persons caught who have been convicted of violent crimes – or what’s known in ICE as a "level one" offense.
Carrollton, Farmers Branch, Irving, Mesquite and Dallas and Denton counties are among the jurisdictions using Secure Communities processes. The program began in November 2008.
