Hello,
Can someone tell me about the final interview for the EB based GC process.
1) Does everyone get called for an interview or is it done on selected cases based on individual factors?
2) When is it generally done? Prior to approval of your 485 or prior to the issue of your visa(GC).
3) Why is it done and what kind of questions can one expect during the interview?
Thanks
Lasantha
A couple acquaintances have gone through the process. Some Australians were given a lot of grief when the person accused them of coming from Antigua or some little Island. It was obviously a typo on their part--they have obvious Aussie accents. He accused them and accused them. They didn't give and the officer gave up. Officer 0, immigrants 1.
Another woman was asked if she's planning on staging a terrorist attack. (She's French.) She said something like "If I was, would I tell you?" and then had to wait an extra year as the officer said they were done. Officer 1, immigrants 0
Remember spouses birth dates, etc.
So even if they ask idiot questions, and they probably will, don't make any jokes or anything. Be firm, formal, and polite. Behave as you wish they would.

My current status is H1B with I-140 approved. I am planning for a fulltime MBA for which I have to transfer my visa to student visa. I heard from some sources that I cannot transfer to student visa when my 140 is approved. Does anyone here knows how far this is true?

I hope you do understand that once you change status to F-1, you essentially are losing your priority date and your GC application. Also, you will not be able to get a F-1 visa stamp on your passport as you cannot prove that you don't have an intention to immigrate (because you already had applied for and got an I-140 approved).
Thanks,
Prasad

Hi All,
We need to work towards fixing the USCIS Online Case Status System of Texas Service Center, lot of people are not receiving updates in email/website about their cases.
How will you do that? I guess, while working on cases, user has to click somewhere to send an email. If they choose not to, then there will be no email. In my case, I never saw consistency in getting emails. I don't think that is a big issue, just check your status periodically. Bigger and important issue is how to get your case processed faster, and in sequence.

Hello
I am working on a L1 B Blanket Visa since the past 3 years. My visa is expiring on 11/18/08 and my employer encourages me to apply for a fresh petition from India rather than apply for an extension here due to the no. of cases denied. My wife is presently employed through EAD which expires the same date.
Is there any way that she can retain her employment while we both get our VISA stamped a month before my current VISA expiry date from India ? She might not get 2 months leave without pay which is the usual processing time for a re-extension of EAD considering we both arrive in US after getting a new VISA in the first week of November 2008. Please advise.
I don't see the gain. Although a fresh L petition has better chance of approval, you still have to get a visa approved, which may get rejected.
Given your wife's situation of EAD, you are better off applying for an extension here. They will not reject an application as long it meets all the requirements.

Now. Don't try to scream.
This is just unofficial and don't ask my sources.
All i know is that as of yesterday there were only 18000 applications for Masters quota.
Why did not they get filled as fast as the Regular quota?
This is the reasoning my lawyer gave....
"Most of the applicants for Master's quota were in confusion after April 3 after reading several bulletins about 200,000 or so H1-B applications. And some people didn't even apply thinking that the USCIS may have received more than enough master's quota applications even though the bulletin said that they were accepting more applications for Master's quota."
I know of people who have submitted fresh H1-B applications under master's quota as late as April 7th.
So guys, wait for the official numbers. Don't believe me. But do compare when the official news is released.
I am surprised by the slow pace of Master's applications.

austingc,
Thank you for the advise.
My wife has already gone to the consulate and got her stamping. So she is out of the loop, its only me who needs the stamp.
To put my question in a different way:
Will the consulate cancel/stops/statusquo my wifes H4 visa as the H1B is in "Admin Processing"?
Thanks again.

The US Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) has issued new guidance (http://www.uscis.gov/files/nativedocuments/health_care_occupations_20may09.pdf)on the standards for adjudicating H-1B petitions filed on behalf of beneficiaries seeking employment in a health-care specialty occupation.
The memo suggests that adjudicators should first consult the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics� Occupational Outlook Handbook (OOH) to determine whether the position qualifies as a H-1B "specialty occupation" as defined in the Immigration and Nationality Act.
The memo addresses licensing requirements for health-care workers in detail, and the effect of having a license - or not having a license - on approval of a case. If the foreign national has the required license, the adjudicator should not "look beyond the license." If the foreign national has a restricted license (e.g., license approved except for mandatory supervised practice), and the petition is otherwise approvable, an adjudicator should approve the petition for one year, or the duration of the restricted license, whichever is longer.
If the employee does not have the license because s/he needs certain immigration documents before getting a license, CIS can approved the petition for one year. The memo says that "The approval of any such H-1B petition shall not constitute approval by USCIS for the alien beneficiary to engage in any activity requiring possession of such State or local license. It is merely a means to facilitate the state or local licensing authority�s issuance of such a license to the alien, provided all other requirements are satisfied."

this is just like what people talk about IRS. I got packet in mail asking to contact immediatly field officer at local office regarding 2006 tax returns. Thinking worst, I didn't even go beyond subject line and everybody I talked or told, scared me to death. Finally, I mustered up courage to go line-by-line. Didn't understand what they were talking about and neither did the notice had my name or SSN. So left with no-choice, called IRS and found that documents were for previous resident!
Lession for me (and all) ... if you haven't done anything wrong intentially, their is nothing to be afraid about.

I am also in same situation where my salary is much less than what is mentioned in LC. I am not sure if its going to affect my 485 application. I have got my 140 approved though. I have asked this question to attorneys and forums and everybody has the same opinion that GC is for future job so it should not matter if one's wages are not matching with LC.

Hi,
I got my I-140 approved last week at Texas Service Center and the status was Approval notice sent. Today, I got an email from CRIS mentioning this case has been transferred to Nebraska Service Center for processing where my I-485 is pending.
Can anybody throw some light on this?
Thanks,

Delaware Immigration Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
The EB-5 Immigrant Investors Program is recently extended to September 30, 2012. The statutory requiments of the EB-5 visa are burdensom. Approximately only about 1,000 people a year have immigrated in this category -- just one-tenth of the visa available.
For the regular program, the enterprise must (1) be one in which the person has invested at least $1 million (or at least $500,000 if investing in a targeted employment area), (2) benefit the U.S. economy and (3) create full-time employment for at least 10 U.S. workers.
A business can be used for employment-creation classification by more than one investor, provide that each investor has invested the required amount and the creation of 10 full-time jobs may be attributable to each investor.
The investor is required to enter the U.S. to engage in a new commercial enterprise, i.e., the investor must maintain more than a purely passive role in the new enterprise, and he or she must either be involved in the day-to-day managerial control of the commercial enterprise or manage it through policy formulation.
USCIS does not require retention of employees until a reasonalbe time after conditional visa is issued. Normally, a comprehensive business plan supporting the need for 10 employees within the next two years is acceptable.
The procedure to apply begins with submitting initial evidence with an I-526 petition. If the I-526 petition is approved, the investor becomes a conditional resident for two years. After the two years, the investor has to file an I-829 to remove the condition. It must be accompanied by evidence that the individual has invested or was in the process of investing the required captial, and the investment has created 10 full-time jobs.https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1142140030762969806-6519671685318254492?l=deimmigration.blogspot.com

Almost a good percentage of IV members are ready to file their I-140/I-485. I was one of the fortunate ones who will be able to file I485, due to the date moving from 2001 to 2003 last month for Eb3. The moment I got this happy news that I can file I-485, I celebrated by contributing $20 to IV. And my request to all of you who are in good spirits as of today due to the dates being current for I140/485, please do the same. This will help IV to continue fighting for the removal of retrogression to the best extent. I am sure all of us agree with me, that there is a long way to go in the journey of this GC. So, please contribute.
