Hi
Since I got electronic refund to my tax rebate and have SSN for all family members, I was expecting Tax refund (stimulus) to be deposited in my bank accoung this week. This was big announcement in the last week.
But I dont see any rebate deposited in my account?
Does any of you have received such rebates?
Is there any contacts numbers where we can approach if we did not received Stimulus rebate al though we filed electronically?
Thanks
I did received the money on May 2 nd. The date when you receive your money depends on teh last two didigit of your SSN number. PLease check IRS.Gov there is a link to check your sttaus.

It should be applied at the service center where your 485 is pending currently. Attach copy of 485 transfer notice with other required documents.
Can Gurus please help me with this:
Where do I mail out the packets for EAD and AP renewal (paper extensions)? Can you please tell me whether the packet should be mailed to a service center where previous EAD and AP were approved or whether it depends on the state I live in?
Please note, my original EAD, AP and I-485 were sent to NSC which were transferred to TSC internally (by USCIS) and now my I-485 is pending in TSC.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

This is not the appropriate place to ask this question. Most of us here are still waiting to get our green card. You may find answer to your question at another forum that have people who already took the oath.
It is ok in my opinion. This is a 'Ask a lawyer' area and people can ask any immigration related question to the panel of IV lawyers for free. We now have 15 lawyers in IV panel.

Hi,
I am in the following situation.
1. I am going to complete my 6yrs of stay ( L1 period + H1 period) in USA by Dec 2008 (after adding my vacation time in India).
2. I got H1 valid till June 2010 and got stamped on passport that valid till June 2010.
( USCIS approved H1 for me till 2010 eventhou I complete 6yrs by end of 2008)
3. My LC was electronically filed in September 2007 in EB2 category in Chicago DOL. Got Audit in October 2007 on Business Necessity ground and was replied within due date.
4. After several months of waiting (Audit response was accepted), it was denied on the following reason. "The internal job posting was not as per the DOL regulations".
5. My Lawyer said, the notice that was submitted was in the proper format-the exact format specified by the regulations that applied for reconsideration
He also mentioned that, he filed LC for other candidates with same job posting and got approval on their cases.
6. Now, Atlanta is processing all permanent Labors. As there is a huge back log at Atlanta processing center, My lawyer suggested to apply a new application rather waiting on this reply.
7. we need wait another 2 months ( for job ads and wait for response ) before even we can apply for new LC. even we apply some time in September 2008. I should get an approval immediately (as I am going to complete 6 yrs) otherwise I will be in trouble.
Given the scenario, what are my options as I am on time crunch.....?
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

All,
I had posted some queries previously and thanks to all who took time to respond.
As I had said before , I have an admission to study for my MBA outside US for one year. Here is the latest update:
I was thinking I will get a one year leave abscence from my employer ( advt on the website), but apparently they dont support studies as part of the deal.
So i am out of luck;
Considering my situation what do you gurus recommend.
How can I leave US yet maintain my GC process.
My I-140 is approved
Situation:
Spouse in school Full time Studies on I-485 pending. ( entered on F1 then converted to I485..... so going back to F1 is impossible)..
I want her status to be preserved.
My thought:
Resign from my company when I need to leave. Convince them that I will return. Maintain no ties with the company for one year..basically can be compared to being jobless for one year.
and then get a letter that a future similar job will be available with the same Co. ( that sponsored my GC)...
Is this feasible ./practical?

I only know information about I-485 filing but do not know what to expect after it is filed?
Can someone tell me what to expect after things are in place? Like expecting Receipt date, fingerprinting - how many of them, what to look for and what to watch out for etc. A consolidated discussion may help many who are unaware of the system.
Who will get such information, lawyer or the applicant?

I am on H1B visa. My visa expires in April 2010. I was arrested in New York for a misdemeanor charge which was subsequently dismissed by the court. There was no guilty plea etc so under immigration law too I DO NOT have a conviction. I have all the final court docs. I am travelling to India to renew my H1B visa. I have a few questions -
(i) Is there a possibility that I am selected for 221 g screening? How long does the 221 g screen take?
(ii) Since I have a valid visa am I allowed to enter the US while they are completing the process? I have left the country before and entered on my current visa. I was sent for additional screening at the airport but had no issues since I have all the court documents.
Any insights would be appreciated

The Kentucky Consular Center in Williamsburg, Kentucky has registered and notified the winners of the DV-2010 diversity lottery. The diversity lottery was conducted under the terms of section 203(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act and makes available *50,000 permanent resident visas annually to persons from countries with low rates of immigration to the United States.
Winners should start finding out very soon. Notifications to the randomly-selected diversity visa or "green card lottery" winners are being sent between May and July 2010.
How does it all work?
Soon an official letter from the U.S. Department of State Kentucky Consular Center (KCC) in Williamsburg, Kentucky will be sent to the mailing address that you provided in your entry. Being selected as a lottery winner does not guarantee that you will receive a visa; you must still apply and qualify for the immigrant visa. The notification letters will provide further instructions, including information on additional forms and documentation required and immigrant visa application fees.
Only participants in the DV-2010 program who were selected for further processing have been notified. Those who have not received notification were not selected. They may try for the upcoming DV-2011 lottery if they wish. The dates for the registration period for the DV-2011 lottery program will be widely publicized during August 2009.

First thing is you need to renew your passport.
Old passport will be given back.
Also if your passport is not having more than 6 months validity, US Consulate may not stamp your visa and also there could be problem with your travel. (This is my opinion)

Hi, i'm gonna explain my situation.
I came to the states on december with a J-1 Visa for the purpose of work and travel program, i've got a ds-2019, my I-94 is with D/S, and i got a SSN card with the "only valid for work with dhs authorization", also i dont have the 2 year residence requirement on the J-1 visa so i don't need to get a waiver for appliying to AOS. I was working in colorado for 3 1/2 months and my visa expired on march 30. I was supposed to go back to my country (peru) but then i went to texas to see my girlfriend that i haven't seen in a year, and we decided to get married, which we just did a week ago. She's a permanent resident, living her for like 5 years or so, but not a citizen.
The thing is that neither of us have so much money to fill the papers (she just got a new job after a couple months unemployed :( ), she's still living with her parents, and i dont have a job anymore cause my visa already expired so i decided to move to florida with my cousin (i've just got here yesterday), so at least i don't have to pay rent and he can help me a little. So we're both triyin to make some money to make this happen.
The thing is that, i know that working out of status is illegal. Right now our plan is to get money for her to get her citizenship, move together, and then apply for my AOS, work permit and everything. But right now i need to work. My question is, if i work with my current ssn, which i'm not allowed to, will USCIS forgive that when we apply for AOS? I have explained my situation to some people here, and they're willing to give me a job with my current ssn but i dont know if i should take it or not. Can i then argument that it was for getting the money to become legal or something. We haven't applied for aos now cause, affidavit of support (we dont have money he).
Well at least we're happily married and had a good honey moon in Austin, i'm missing her thought :(
Please comment and try to give me some ideas here.
Thanks

Immigration Visa Attorney Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
http://www.immigrationvisaattorneyblog.com/Magnify%20Glass.jpgIn our blog of yesterday (http://www.immigrationvisaattorneyblog.com/2010/04/border-guards-will-finally-use.html), 1 April 2010, we mentioned the new screening procedures at US ports of entry (POE). Fong & Chun's clients travel a great deal, passing through Los Angeles and other immigration ports of entry. As lawyers to so many travelers, we try to provide accurate information about border issues. We have learned a little more about the new screening protocol.
In the past, all citizens of certain countries believed to be supporters of terrorism would all be scrutinized indiscriminately. Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, and Sudan are widely believed to have been on this list of soi-disant unfriendly countries. Citizens of other countries -- perceived as "friendly" to the USA -- would be subject to less scrutiny.
The new POE screening procedures use intelligence-based threat assessments. This information will be applied to all persons arriving at a POE, including Americans. If border guards have intelligence that -- let's pretend for a moment -- a university-age male student from Africa might be trying to engage in dangerous activity, then the border guards would be on the lookout for university-age male students from Africa. In contrast, university-age male students from, say, Malaysia, M�xico, Moldova, Monaco, or Myanmar would not be subject to the same scrutiny.
This new, intelligence-based approach makes the most of the information provided by US intelligence sources without painting everyone with an indiscriminately broad brush. --jcf

Hello,
I am trying to figure out if it is possible to sponsor (legal sponsorship support letter) my cousin back in India who is trying for higher studies in Canada (the letter to be shown to the Canada consulate). I am an Indian on H1B in US with Perm just filed.
I heard that being a resident alien myself (as opposed to permanent resident) I cannot sponsor him? Is that true?
If I can in fact sponsor him -- will that have any affect/complication whatsoever on my (i) Perm (ii) Tax application etc etc?
He is an 18 yr old Indian.
Thanks a lot for any advice!
Piyush
I am currently on a H1 & I sponsored my Brother's education in US last year and i think it is possible. It doesnt matter whether you are a Resident Alien or a Permanent Resident. All they want to see is whether there is an ability to pay the tution fees and support his living expenses. There shouldnt be any problem. Let me know if you need more info.

Hi ,
Does it impact I140 processing if i am outside US and worked with same employer in India ?
I have left for india assignment after concurrent filing (I 485 + I 140)
for 4 weeks and joined back in US for different assignment last year after July filings.
But i have maintained my old residence status and applied for change of address when i came on different assignment and loaction in US.
Has any one experienced similar situation ?
Does on US payroll becoming inactive for some duration ( in my case 4 weeks) make the I40 processing questionable ?
Can anyone advise ?
Thanks in advance,
Vin69
