AFAIK those who filed after July 30, 2007 filed with the new fee, and do not have to pay the fee for the EAD. However you can't e-file, but have to send in your paper application form.

I'm not an expert but from what I have read on various sites, nobody really knows. The thought is that the Nurse Relief bill stands little chance on it's own but may be bundled with something else to pass it.
I was told by my agency that if CIR passes, it will lift nurses out of the EB catagory and they will all be current. I have tried to find clarification on this but I don't think it is possible to speculate at this time.
I think the Healthcare reform is the first issue and then CIR will be addressed.
I have seen the figure 20,000 extra visas per year bandied round, these would be for the nurse only and the familly members would not take up any of this number. I have no idea how many nurses are waiting so don't know how this will impact on the overall figures - if indeed it ever comes to fruition.
I'm in turmoil over this as I had anticipated a lengthy wait and have embarked on a training programme to become a nurse practitioner and now worry I won't be able to complete it.
Being realistic, I would think if all EB visas become available overnight it will be sometime to process a large number, so it could take a good 12 months to get to my PD Jan 09 - I hope.
As I said at the start I am no expert so am only conveying my understanding and would welcome anyone who can correct any misunderstanding on my part.

Thank you for replying. One more follow up question: Is acting without pay considered work and hence a violation ? Thanks in advance.
Yes, acting without pay is working. You might not receive a benefit in financial terms, but you are getting other benefits - experience, publicity, etc.

You are good till the end of your original H1 regardless of the outcome of the extension... the catch is, you have to maintain H1 status.. meaning get paid, no benching etc.,

It won't be through any company. It would be through the school itself. If the school needs a teacher then it can file for his/her h1b.
Thanks Godbless
Does anyone know about a School that require teachers and apply their H1B.

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

The Department of State has published a pamphlet educating nonimmigrant visa holders on their rights. The pamphlet covers the visa process, important documents, workplace and employee rights, human trafficking, and how to file a complaint. This is a very useful document, not just for immigrants. See here (http://www.travel.state.gov/pdf/Pamphlet-Order.pdf) to download.

Hi,
My mom is scheduled for an interview for a visitor visa at US Consulate, Chennai. My mom is 70 years old and she will be the only person attending for the interview. She has not travelled a lot and she will not be able to figure out everything that is needed inside the consulate before and after the interview by herself. Now - my question is - Can my mom take anyone (say a relative) with her inside the consulate for help?
Appreciate your help!
No, she cannot carry anyone else except herself inside the consulate. A relative can accompany her till she enters the consulate and your mother can ask for a translator and I am sure there would be people to help her, otherwise too.
But as far as someone accomanying her inside the consulate, NO,
And just in case, even if the relative is able to get in with her, it is not advisable to do so.

Hi:
I received RFE (employment verification letter) from USCIS, texas center two years ago. I was still employed by the company who filed my GC application at that time. So the company replied and my case status was updated. But my PD was not current, so my case is still pending until now.
I lost job recently, if my PD became current in early 2010, will USCIS EVL me again?
I know no one can predict how USCIS works. I just want to check if anyone had experience that was checked employment status twice?
Thanks

PD: EB2 India - Jun03
I140 approved: Nov 05
I-485 applied: Jun 05
FP1: Jul 05
FP2: May 07
AC21: Job changed twice (Jun 06 and Apr 07). Sent EVL to USCIS both times with 'same job description' but 'different job title'.
This morning I received USCIS email alert for both my wife and I.
My I-485 application got a RFE. "We mailed you a notice requesting additional evidence". Will have to wait for the formal letter for the details. :(
My wife's I-485 application however was transferred to Newark NJ for interview. "This case has been sent for a standard interview." :confused:
I have a ton of questions at this stage. here are few in you gurus can help me while I am waiting for the RFE letter.
1) Will the RFE letter be mailed to me or my attorney ? what has been ur experience? do you get it in one week ?
2) why USCIS has split the processing of my I-485 and my wife's I-485. Her I-485 is transfered to Newark, NJ while mine is pending at TSC (now waiting for RFE response).
3) How much time will I have to respond to the RFE? Based on the new guidelines (http://www.murthy.com/news/n_timrfe.html) , I expect that to be stated in the RFE letter.
thanks in advance.

L1 visa is granted to people who have worked in the home country for the sponsoring company before coming to US. So, if you have worked in XYZ bangalore, you can get an L1 from XYZ to come to US. However, you are obviously working in the US for your present employer, so how could you have worked for the other company in the home country (Example - India)??

Hello IV members,
I have been watching IV forum during the last four weeks. I feel it is a great place to post questions and comments to help everybody in our long Immigration journey. I have a situation here.
I have filed my H-1B extension, my wife�s H-4 extension, my I-140 and our I-485 applications recently from my current address. I haven�t got the approvals yet for any of them. I am thinking of taking another project(with the same employer of course) next month and relocating to a new state.
I heard that immigration documents don�t get forwarded by USPS. My worry is about my wife�s H-4 extension approval notice as other communications will go either to my employer or lawyer. I know that we have an online form to update our new address to USCIS.
Did anybody run into problems of mails being sent to the address in the forms even after you filled out this form?
Please let me know what you think about relocation after filing immigration papers.

It's not clear what you really mean.
You say your employer has agreed to file your AOS papers but has not agreed to proceed with the processing. Isn't that one and the same?
Besides you should ask for exactly what the risk is.
Maybe hiring your own immigration attorney or a consult is the best to get your facts straight.
