please post your experiences regarding recent RFEs for EB2 and EB3 to EB2 conversions. please include details regarding what the RFE was issued for. I am startng this thread because I am hearing different things from different people saying EB2 is being scrutinized more(especially EB3 to EB2 conversions) and this is resulting in more RFEs. I need every body who received RFEs recently to comment on it so that we can arrive at an accurate assessment. I am expecting that EB2 India/ China will continue advancing in the next few months. this will indirectly benefit EB3 India also as there will be unused visa numbers that will overflow into EB3, but the only problem is if applications are scrutinized, then the RFEs may delay processing for many people with earlier PDs even if their date becomes current.

Cuban-born Emilio Estefan has been one of the most well-known residents of my home town of Miami since my childhood. He was a member of the famous band The Miami Sound Machine and in the years since he has become a highly successful Latin music producer in South Florida's music community. Estefan has been nominated for 28 Grammys over the years and won 14 times. He's also the husband of fellow band member Gloria Estefan. And he is the producer of well-known Latin music stars Marc Antony, Jennifer Lopez and Ricky Martin. And if life as a musician and producer...

Just missed it. Could only get to hear the last statement. "The Congress already has 50 votes to pass the DREAM ACT. They need at least 60 votes........."
Anyone knows from where to get to see this once again?

If you go to the USCIS website (www.uscis.gov) you can download the EAD application and the list of documents that you are required to submit. My understanding is that the location where you file your EAD is dependent on the State where you live. The EAd application instructions include information on where to file depending on the State where you live.

There is a mistake in my 485 cover letter. The letter states that I am EB3 but actually I am EB2.
Will this cause any problem? Will USCIS deny my case? Please note we included I-140 approval form in the file.
Many thanks.
Your cover Letter is not a USCIS document. As long as the actual application forms and supporting documents are good you should have nothing to fear.

My I-485 is pending with PD of Oct 11 2006(EB2 India). I have been on H1 as was not able to add my spouse to my initial 485 application. As my H1 expires on Sep 6, we recently filed for H1/4 extension and received an RFE for Employee-Employer relationship. We have to answer this by Sep 13. As a Plan B, What we did in June 2010 was
a) I filed for my EAD
b) My spouse got admitted into a school here and applied for COS from H4 to F1 with a valid I-20.
Both of these cases are currently pending.. My questions are:
1) As our H1/4 and I-94 expires on Sep 6, Would we still be in legal status after Sep 6 as both of our cases (EAD and COS) are pending?
2) After answering the RFE, if it is denied, would it impact my GC processing?
3) I understand that even if my H1 is denied, As I have a pending EAD, my status would be okay but what options would we have if my Wife's case is denied.
Thanks in Advance!

Rising tensions are testing Reid-McConnell relations (http://thehill.com/leading-the-news/rising-tensions-are-testing-reid-mcconnell-relations-2007-06-14.html) By Manu Raju, June 14, 2007
Tensions are set to rise between the two parties in the Senate in coming weeks, threatening to stifle the Democratic legislative agenda and test the amicable relationship between Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and Republican leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.).
After the collapse of immigration legislation last week over procedural concerns, rhetoric has been heating up. Democrats increasingly blame McConnell, who is up for reelection in 2008, tagging him as an obstructionist. The GOP stuck that same label on then Minority Leader Tom Daschle (D-S.D.), helping defeat him in his reelection bid in 2004.
Some conservatives, upset that the immigration bill came to the floor without committee deliberations, grumble that McConnell is not combative enough with Reid and should challenge anything that does not follow regular Senate order, aides to two conservative senators say.
That could unhinge the cordial relationship between Reid and McConnell, which both say remains strong despite burgeoning battles.
�This has not been an easy six months,� said Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.). �I think our friends on the other side of the aisle have wished to slow things down as much as possible with over and over again motions just to even go to a bill.�
Republicans accuse Reid of employing procedural tactics in an unprecedented way to bring legislation to the floor without committee debate, to limit amendments on the floor and to end debate on legislation.
�I don�t know if he understands the difference being a leader and being a dictator,� conservative Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) said.
Next week, Reid wants to bring to the Senate floor a bill passed by the House that would make it easier for labor unions to organize workforces, aides say. The bill, long-sought by labor but opposed by business, has not gone through the Senate committee process. Republicans plan to object to the bill�s consideration, forcing Reid to find 60 votes if the measure is to be considered in the narrowly divided Senate.
Even if the Senate reaches that threshold, Republicans may object to a unanimous consent request to waive 30 hours of debate to proceed to the bill. Doing so would mean debate on the bill would dominate much of the week, which Reid, with scarce floor time and a packed agenda before the July 4 recess, wants to avoid.
Jostling over process reflects the parties� hope of framing political debate in the run-up to the 2008 elections, analysts say.
�I think Reid is ultimately � looking ahead to �08, to shape the party�s reputation as much as his own reputation,� said Sarah Binder, senior fellow in governance studies at the Brookings Institution. �How well the Democrats do in part is going to do depend on what Democrats do in Congress, and he can blame Republicans [for] creating stalemates.�
Republicans point out that Reid has filed 39 cloture motions to limit debate or proceed to legislation this Congress, which is on pace to shatter the 68 cloture motions filed in the entire 109th Congress.
�[B]The actions of the majority leader in filing cloture so many times this year takes the Senate out of its traditional role and it brings it more towards a House model, where debate is constricted,� said Brian Darling, director of Senate relations for the Heritage Foundation.
Two efforts to shut down debate on immigration failed last week after Republicans objected that too few of their amendments were considered during the Senate debate. Republicans complained that the Senate could have moved quickly and finished the immigration debate if Reid had tabled amendments or allowed many of them to be considered simultaneously. Reid retorted that Republicans were objecting to their own amendments and would not agree to a set number of amendments that could be considered.
When the immigration bill fell apart last week, McConnell said, �The message to the majority is, it�s going to take longer than you�d like to take, and it�s going to take more votes than you�d like to make. I think they have had to relearn that lesson several times. That is the reason this Congress, at least to this point, has such a paltry list of accomplishments.�
Reid shot back this week, saying his frequent use of cloture has been made necessary because of Republican obstruction.
McConnell �failed to mention that we have to do that because we�re not able to do anything without cloture,� Reid said. �On the most basic bills we did � lobbying ethics reform, minimum wage, 9/11 � everything that we�ve had to do, we have to get 60 votes first. So they�ve made it very difficult for us.�

I have my H1B visa with NIIT. My petition and visa for the first 3 yr period expire in October 2008. I am returning to India in April '08 to do my MBA, and will resign from NIIT, and therefore will not be able to renew my visa.
If I want to work in the US after I graduate, say in August '09, can an employer file a transfer petition based on this visa? Or Will they have to file for a new one under the quota? And if so, is there a way that I can hang on to my H1 status?
Thanks!

Hello Attorney,
I have 6 months left on my H1B-I797 to expire. My visa on the passport got expired in 2007. I am planning to go to Tijuana, Mexico for stamping. I work for a financial company for past 4 years. I have approved I140.
Can you please advise if i can get the visa stamped? I have to visit India in May and hence cannot wait until the my H1B extension is filed and approved (based on my approved I140).
I am confused and worried that the consular officer may say that you have less than 6 months of validity on I797 and may deny the visa.
Can any one please advise?
Thanks

Just a thought.. maybe some experts can help..
Does BEC Capture the following information at the time of entering data..
Type of application � Eb2, 3 or Other workers category..
Nationality of application..
My understanding is that BEC does not determine the EB2 or EB3 until the final stage, nor is the nationality captured as part of the older labor process (I could be wrong.).. and if the nationality is captured then an application of an Indian can only be substituted by an Indian???
In case they don�t,,, how can DOS determine the all the 245(i) applications at the BEC are Eb2.. or Eb3.. or for that matter from India. On an optimistic side.. when all the cases at the BEC get cleared in June 07 and DOS realizes that bulk of the cases were for Other Workers Category .. may dates for EB2 and EB3 could make huge movement forward then..

When my employer looked up my case number on the DOL site, the case status showed as "certified" and apparently when he downloaded the certified ETA 9089 the section where it says "Signature of the certifying officer" doesn't bear CO's any stamping/signature.
My employer came to know this only yesterday obviously 'coz he overlooked and we just have two more months remaining on this PERM validity. My employer also said he can't file for I-140 unless we hear back from the DOL on the CO signature issue.
He has apparently emailed DOL asking for clarifction on this.
1. Would DOL even bother to look at the incoming emails after the case has been approved?.
2. Does CO's rubber stamp signature really required for 140?. What if we don't hear back from DOL on time, can we just go ahead with 140 filing?.
3. I am on my 6th year of H1b.
Any response on this matter is truly appreciated.
Thanks a lot to everyone.

Recently I filed a H1-B Part time Visa. I received the notice from the Lawyer that my application got a RFE on it.
Will they usually show the status online? When I check USCIS, it does not say my case had a RFE on it.
Please advice! Thanks!

On I140 form, notice type has information about INS section.
The INS section explain that your GC is under EB2 category or EB3 category.
INS section details
INA Section 203(b) (2) is EB-2
INA Section 203(b) (3) is EB-3
Hope this will help some of us.:D

The antis regularly trumpet the argument that we need to slash visa numbers to protect jobs for Americans looking for work. But if employers are seeking to slash payrolls and immigrants were a source for cheap labor, shouldn't we see visa applications increasing? The numbers tell a stark story - visa applications in key categories are plummeting. Eighteen months ago, H-1B applications for university educated workers were in such high demand that nearly 200,000 applications were received on the first day the annual allotment opened up. This past April, only 40,000 applications for the basic H-1B quota were received and...
