It'd be great to get some more IVians to express their opinions/ideas and vote on this thread:
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?p=205773#post205773
The idea being bounced around is whether IV should be made an organization funded by membership dues, and benefits provided to members only.
The benefits:
- Logistics: Members identified/verified, not anonymous
- Communication: Improved one-to-one communication rather than hunting for information in forums. Perhaps even a newsletter updating you on what's going on, what's being planned, what are the activities.. and action items.
- Funding: Sustainable funding for lobbying efforts, media relations, etc.
- Live Nag-Free! No one asks you what you've contributed in every second post, you don't have to wear the ID tag of your contribution amount around your neck to prevent such questions
- Community: Be part of a community with a national presence, with local chapters.
- Legal advice: Get free legal advice in monthly/quarterly/periodic conf calls/webinars
- Jobs: Job postings or referrals on IV members-only site
- Business opportunities: Come together with other IV members to explore common business opportunities
- Myriad other benefits that memberships in professional organizations come with, such as travel discounts for instance.
The down-side:
- We may lose about half of our "members"
- Others???
Voice your opinions, share your ideas, and vote FOR or AGAINST this proposal here... :

It is not clear if they are going to initiate a name check again. This could be associated with when your fingerprints get invalidated. If they initiate a fresh fingerprint (for what ever reason) without refreshing the existing one, that could trigger a name check. So that could be why they have a secondary check on preadjudicated cases.

Yes he can apply for a TN again, no limit on the number of times alien can enter on TN. If he leaves while his COS is pending it will be considered to be abandonment of the petition.

Why didn't you ask what the interview was about and why the Welcome was issued when your priority date was not current?
In immigration matters it is best to be open and clear lest you fall in situations where you have to hibernate because you can't raise the issue for fear of rejection.

Dallas-Fort Worth Immigration Lawyer Has Just Posted the Following:
Effective January 4, 2010, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Center for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS/CDC) is removing HIV from the list of communicable diseases of public health significance and references to HIV from the scope of medical examinations for foreign nationals.
Until the rule goes into effect, non-citizens who are HIV-positive cannot be admitted into the U.S. unless the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) grants a waiver. Once the rule goes into effect on January 4, 2010, HIV infection will no longer be defined as a communicable disease of public health significance, immigrant visa applicants who are required to undergo a medical screening exam will no longer be tested for HIV, a waiver for entry into the U.S. will no longer be necessary, and HIV-positive visa applicants will not be found ineligible for visas under Section 212(a)(1)(A)(i) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). Although foreign nationals with HIV who apply for visas will no longer be ineligible under INA Section 212(a)(1)(A)(i), they still must overcome the public charge under INA Section 212(a)(4) by demonstrating to the consular officers that they will have the means of support in the U.S. and that they will not need to seek public financial assistance. Please visit CDC’s Web site (http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dq/laws_regs/fed_reg/remove-hiv/final-rule-hiv.htm) for more information.

As of July 24, 2009, approximately 44,900 H-1B cap-subject petitions have been received by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and counted towards the H-1B cap. Approximately 20,000 petitions qualifying for the advanced degree cap exemption have been filed. USCIS will continue to accept both cap-subject petitions and advanced degree petitions until a sufficient number of H-1B petitions have been received to reach the statutory limits. The H-1B program allows foreign nationals to work for their U.S. sponsor employer in a specialty occupation that requires theoretical or technical expertise in specialized fields. This may include scientists, engineers, and commuter programmers to name a few. The cap count for H-1B fiscal year 2010 is available at www.uscis.gov (http://www.uscis.gov).
Call us at 214-999-9999 and Kraft & Associates will answer your H-1B questions.

Hi,
I got an email from a reporter at the Seattle Business Magazine who is writing an article on the lack of Immigration reform in the United States and how that is adversely affecting innovation and job creation.
The magazine in question is definitely not a major publication, however I think its important to highlight our case wherever possible.
Is there a 'Media Kit' on the lines of "meet your lawmaker kit' ? I looked at the "contact media" link on the home page but could not find anything.
I would be grateful if someone can point me to the relevant material, or if someone is willing to share their experience in talking to the media.
Thanks

looks like all the audience in there were paid to sit and watch thay have no idea of what this man is trying to say!!!
more seriously this is all hogwash, someone should ask him if congress were ready to cut down annual immigration levels from 1 million to 200K will the anti-immigrationists agreee to compromise and give GCs for all those immigrants currently in the US? Of course not they will never agree to that.
Because they are basically nativists and xenophobists.

I work in a semiconductor company and got laid off last week. My company informed me that they will inform INS to cancel my H1B in May. I plan to go back to school and change my status to F1. My question is, to do a change of status from H1 to F1, will they ask my recent pay stubs? Please reply

Finally after numerous logins at USCIS, I saw today..Request for additional Evidence sent
on my I140..I only happen to see when some other guy with Eb3 Pd2005 and Rd of August 15 got his I 140approval...
so I logged in to see ..I too have LUD
I wonder what it may be because I had sent all my W2s since my PD of 2001..
My friend from my company had also received RFE for TAX papers last year. She sent it and was approved..
Hopefully I am too..because I never changed jobs working for the last 8 years....and had prior necessary experience before joining my current job...plus 1 year in current job
PD Oct 29, 2001, RD aug 8, 2007

If I understand correctly, once the I-140 is approved, the PD is fixed. Make sure you have all the details of your privious I-140.
you can take up new FT and once the new I-140 is approved and if EB2 July is current at that time, you can ask USCIS to apply that PD to your new I-140. Also the new I-140 needs to be with same or similar job duties / description.

Hi,
I need some clarification/suggestion regarding my status.
I came to US on F1 and am currently working on H1-B (never got H1 stamping) and I got married here in US. I applied for 485 as dependant with my spouse and I got my EAD/AP. I am still continuing on my H1-B without using EAD. We are planning to go to India in Dec and I prefer to use my AP while entering US and would like to continue working on my H1 (continue with same employer) after coming back. Is it possible and valid to do like that? If its ok, do I need to submit any form or anything to USCIS informing that. I prefer not to use EAD. Hope I am clear explaining my situation. Please suggest.

Thank you very much for the reply.
How early can I start working. If I am correct usually I have to wait until I get receipt for USCIS before I can start working for another company. But with H1B from university should I have wait till it gets approved?

I have traveled many times on AP and not once was I asked about EAD/797. That said, there is no strict rules. Maybe you can keep a copy of the above documents and explain why you lost the originals.
