My manager surprised me today saying that I was promoted yesterday from a programmer analyst to a systems analyst. I have an approved i-140 and have filed my 485. My priority date for EB3 is current. I also have a 3 year extension of H1B.
There is no change in the job responsibilities.
Question:
1. How soon should I file my AC21 request?
2. What is the impact of this promotion on my H1B?
3. I have waited for 7 years and I may be close to getting my Green Card. How does the AC 21 impact my pending 485?
I declined my promotion. My manager said that it would take a lot of effort to unwind this promotion. He was not pleased with my request.
Any ideas?
I am sorry, but this is just plain paranoia that seems to affect a lot of GC holders & aspirants. I have a friend who was worried about changing jobs as it was only 6 months since he got his GC!
You are *not* required to file AC21. Even if you do, in your case, it should present no problems at all, as your role & responsiblities have hardly changed.
It is not a wise approach to deny a promotion when you are not clear about the law. First be clear on the law and then make such important decisions.

TB skin test is not mandotory.
I would recommend that you wife gets following tests done and have results ready when you go and see doctor on 15th.
1) Blood test for HIV and RPR(syphilis)
2) Chest XRay
3) Vaccination - MMR, DT(Tetanus booster) and Varicella
if you take the results of tests and proof of vaccination on the day of visit then the medical report can be given same day.
I also recommend that you download form I-693 and I-693A , make few copies, fill up the information like name, A number, date of birth etc and have it ready for the physician to complete the rest of stuff. Make sure you don't sign the form until your doctor signs it. Also don't forget to ask for a copy of the completed for before he seals it.
Hope this helps.
Dont ask me when you get an RFE for your skin test. I believe I read it on these forums that a couple of people were specifically asked about their skin test.
Even the doctors are supposed to give you a skin test and then the x-ray. If you have taken a skin test before, I think you can just take the x-ray now.

Yes, I did use LS.
But my motive was not to jump the line as I told my company attorney to purposefully find an LC from this year or last year. And since it was a multibillion dollar company with some xx thousand employees. They were able to find one.
Not everyone's motives is to jump the line. I did this because I didnt want to wait another 10 years to apply for I 485.
And on the top, dont even think that all who did LS were able to jump the line. LS involves lot of scrutiny and it was always safer to use one's own labor.
Its so funny that some people think that people who cannot prove themselves for what ever reasons (education etc) with their own labor use LS. hehehe. This is even more riskier.
And it was always legal to do it. And may be many people and employers misused it. Shout at those people.
As for me, my labor was going nowhere and the company with which I worked for the past few years found an LS for me which was from last year PD and I do not regret doing it.
And I bet, people who had an opportunity like me would do it.
And also, THE THREAD WAS NOT OPENED WITH A TITLE "WHAT IS YOUR OPINION ABOUT LS, SHOULD IT BE BANNED". There were a number of threads on this forum where you can show these kinds of opinions. This thread was opened for a different purpose.
And moveover LS is banned now. So dont waste your energyy but use it for some good causes IV is planning for.

EB2 India will move very fast till 01 JAN 06 as because based on June 2007 bulletin, just before the july fiasco,( http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bu...etin_3236.html ) the PD for China is 01 JAN 06. That means in EB2 Category except India and China every other country is current. So till India reaches 01 JAN 06 PD in EB2, all the spill overs will be moved to EB2 India. By the time India EB2 reaches 01 JAN 06, China PD in EB2 will move further from 01 JAN 06 by using its 7% quota. So Inidia PD for EB2 again moves fast till that changed China PD using the spill overs. After that India and China will share the spill overs based on the PD priority. All this happens if and only if the USCIS works effectively and uses all the available visa numbers for the present fiscal year. My prediction for EB2 India PD is it touch 2005 /even cross few months in 2005 by the end of this year if USCIS works effectively.

Dont Know from past 20 yrs after coming out of college, for some reason I dont like Infy.
( It is not that I didnt get a Job there ) I had been to there couple of facilities in various cities in India for pre-sales and post sales product support.
I got their offer couple of years back and decided not to join. I was disguised the way the HR manager spoke. He was telling me to work for lower wage than what I was making for the privilege of working for them.

First of all make a complaint about the employer to the INS that he is not paying... and make decision, US is not your entire life. If you have confidence you can do anything anywhere in this small world.

Good question. I am in the same situation. My GG was approved Aug 6th and happen to attend an interview the same day.
I already used AC21 and may have used it second time for this if GC was not approved. So question is can you switch jobs within day of receiving CG ?
From forum search, it does seem ok to switch jobs. Its hard for me to find a valid reason on why we need to stick to the employer for 6 months or 1 yr.
There are cautious people (to say it right, paranoid people to put it blunt) who will not use AC21 or have the theory of sticking to employer for 6 months or 1 yr.
I am still pondering, but leaning strongly towards switching job if the offer is good.

It would be interesting to see how Infy, Wipro etc... will do business when $ == 32 Rs, they will start looking for offshoring to African countries where $ is cheaper.
Once the dollar touches that low, expect huge salary cuts across the board for the employess of these companies.

Of course, we are no more than modern day white collar slaves. We toil here for years, our spouses aren't even allowed to have a social security number, not to mention drivers licenses in many states. We are not even allowed to visit our families in our home countries without having the risk of not getting the visa re-stamped in the consulates abroad. How pathetic! Can't we all move to Canada and setup a colony for free slaves?
Look, the situation is terrible but let's not get carried away. We're still here by choice. We bargain going through all this for having the life we have here and not having the energy enough to unroot and head to Canada, Aus or Europe.

Friend,
I firmly believe that you should not let go this company who screwed u....first and foremost hire a good immigration lawyer (i know it will cost some $$$)....but its important...and discuss with him your case...then sue that bastard company and let him have sleepless nights for couple of months....
Its fraud for the company to accept money for filin 140/labor....they will be screwed more for that...u can mention that the company told u that each employee pays his own costs....and hence u gave him money

I've been a consultant for 5 years now, worked for 5 different clients, and was without work for just 4 days so far. If consulting companies are banned, it means that I will steal the job of one of you permanent employees.
People do hire me as a contractor and pay me big bucks for a reason. The only way I can choose what I want to do when I am still on H1b, is to work for a consulting company.
I know a lot of mediocre people, afraid of not being able to find the next contract, end up in a boring permanent job. May be they like it too.
Don't get offended. You need to see the other angles too. I showed you one.
Maybe you are not part of the typical consultants we are talking here. These touts apply for poeple even when they don't have jobs here.
One of my school friends is working in India for some company. He is not even thinking about coming to US but a consultant here has applied for a H1B for my friend and told him that if it gets approved then they can find him some work. What do you call this ?
So now he is in the same poll as me for H1B. Me ? I have a job with one of the biggest offshore company in the US. Hope I made my point clear Shx.

Even if i-140 is not approved one can still invoke ac21 (after fileing i485 and after 180 days) . But, your original employer has to answer if there is any i-140 rfe. And original employer can withdraw i-140 at any time until it get approved. So bottomline is, don't try to invoke ac21 until i-140 approved and your i485 is 180 days over.

If you are planning on taking action against the attorney for fraud and mis representation, you may want to file a complaint in the bar of the state where your attorney practices. Bar complaints are taken very seriously and if you have proper documentation and are ready for the fight, he could even lose his license and/or penalized by the bar.
