Hey Bro, as far as I know they only test for HIV, Siphilis,TB and Gonorrhea. I am loking at the copy of my medicals right now and I don't see Herpes mentioned anywhere. So I dont think the blood test looks for that. So don't jump the gun and tell the surgeon that you have it. My surgeon didn't even do a genital exam only checked my groin for lymph nodes. SO as far I can see you will be OK. Just take it easy and go for the test. ;)
Will the doctor share the results of the Tests with us ?Can we assume if we get the sealed envelope ,every thing is fine ?

experience is the extract of suffering.I was grateful to Daddy for coming to rescue me when I broke my leg. He also came home from work a time or two to try to talk Mother out of spanking me when I did something wrong. At the beginning of their marriage he really tried to be there for me. I remember once he even took me on the train to St. Louis to see the Cardinals, then our nearest major league baseball team. We stayed overnight and came home the next day. I loved it. Sadly, it was the only trip the two of us ever took together. Like the only time we ever went fishing together. The only time we ever went out into the woods to cut our own Christmas tree together. The only time our whole family took an out-of-state vacation together. Come and buy cheap wow leveling (http://www.u4game.com/Wow_Power_Leveling.html), free wow power leveling web . warcraft gold (http://www.u4game.com) webpage! There were so many things that meant a lot to me but were never to occur again. Roger Clinton really loved me and he loved Mother, but he couldnt ever quite break free of the shadows of self-doubt, the phony security of binge drinking and adolescent partying, and the isolation from and verbal abuse of Mother that kept him from becoming the man he might have been.One night his drunken self-destructiveness came to a head in a fight with my mother I cant ever forget. Mother wanted us to go to the hospital to see my great-grandmother, who didnt have long to live. Daddy said she couldnt go. They were screaming at each other in their bedroom in the back of the house. For some reason, I walked out into the hall to the doorway of the bedroom. Just as I did, Daddy pulled a gun from behind his back and fired in Mothers direction. The bullet went into the wall between where she and I were standing. FFXI Gil (http://www.u4game.com/Final-Fantasy-XI-49.html) I was stunned and so scared. I had never heard a shot fired before, much less seen one. Mother grabbed me and ran across the street to the neighbors. The police were called. I can still see them leading Daddy away in handcuffs to jail, where he spent the night.

Has anybody done that?
Questions;
1) Will the old 140 be valid (for using the PD) even if the old employer withdraws/revokes the old LC/140? Big corporation, so I thought that would be a standard procedure?
2) Has the new job title and responsibilities be very similar to the old one?
3) Has the new LC/140 to be filed before the old one is cancelled inorder to keep the PD?
4) is there any memo/law that allows us to keep the old PD once a 140 has been approved (even if it is revoken)?
It is clear that a new LC/140 has to be done once you change the job. So any other information is welcome.

Waiting for 180 days is hard....but its even harder for folks like me, who are waiting for 140 approval..The way things are, looks like it sgonna take much longer than 180 days for 140 approval...Only then I can even think of using AC21....But no complaints...Patience pays...:)
You are not as bad as you think. Read USCIS guidance on the subject. If your I-140 is not approved by 180 days, you can still use AC21. In that case, the adjudicator while looking at your I-485, sees if filed I-140 was approvable. If so, you are good to go, provided you can prove that you have a new same/similar job offer.
For USCIS guidance see Page 3, Q1 at: http://www.ilw.com/immigdaily/news/2005,0520-ac21.pdf

Documents required for EAD/I-765 per person:
Completed Form I-765 (EAD):
http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-765.pdf
2 photos(full frontal)
USCIS filing fee - $180.00 check payable to 'United States Citizenship and Immigration Service' OR 'USCIS' with your (A# or SSN#) and I-765 mentioned in the comments section of the check
Copy of recent I-94 card (both sides)
Copy of visa page of passport in color
Copy of driver's license
Copy of I-485 receipt notice (if applicable)
Copy of I-140 approval notice
Copy of Marriage certificate (if applying for spouse)
I also included the latest H1B Approval Notice and Birth Certificate as per the checklist by my lawyer. His fees was high so I filed couple of weeks back and got the Receipt Number from the back of my check.
Since this is not concurrent filing, i think the fees will increase on July 30th.
I dont think 140 approval notice is manditory, in many cases employees do not have 140 approval notice because that is a property of employer and not employee, 485 receipt notice is fine.

Remind me again, why do we pay these attorney big dollars for??
This is one BIG STUPID mistake by your lawyer that can potentially ruin your life. I am hoping for the best for you on the other hand I wish the stupid attorney of yours should be sued in case your application is not accepted.
Singhsa, I know. At this point, I am looking for alternatives. Please let me know if you have seen such experiences and what USCIS has done in such cases.

1/2 million insurance for only $22?. :eek: i am paying $40 for $250K. can you please tell whats the name of the insurance company?.
I think if you applied for I-485, then you can say you are a PR. not sure what are the repercussions, though.

I am also in the same shoes as you. Been here 9 years, filed GC in 2002, still no end in sight. I recently got a job offer from back home. Decent offer, I am told by friends, enough to sustain a good lifestyle and then save some. I am seriously comtemplating going back.

when you file for the 485 you can use old priority date. priority dates can be transferred if old 140 was approved and you changed the company to restart the process all over again.
Can you use an PD from an old labour application, that was approved but the labour has been used for another employee?
I think not as from your answer it appears , labour & i-140 must have been approved for the same person, just wanted to get it clarified.
Thanks.

Friends / Gurus,
I had made decisions but would like to get second opinion from Gurus who are on the same boat like me. And I am not able to discuss with people close to me who are not in the same situation.
I know either Pappu or Logiclife suggested that it is alwasy better to have your own attorney instead of having employers attorney.
My situation:
This is a desi company and attorney is employers attorney, never been good to me, does not reply on time, does not respond properly on phone, infact does not give the respect that one desrves (as he thinks that he is talking to another desi)
Working for Employer A and he applied for labor, I 140 and he paid for it.
Then July 2007 came in and applied for 485 with same attorney - I paid for it.
Now comes AC21,
changing to employer B using H1B transfer.
My plan or decision: planning to change attorney (Rajiv khanna)though he is bit expensive.But heard a lot of good about him.And any ways in months come I need to renew EAD, AP and would need attorneys help (I know I can do it, but would prefer attorney do it)
Employer B suggestion: leave the case with previous attorney, unless you get RFE.As you have paid for it and it is your application. Attorney has to respond to you.
Your suggestion:
1. Stack back with old attorney
2. Stack back with old attorney, unless I get any RFE (hope not)
3. Change to my attorney even though it is expensive, which is always safe. As adviced by pappu or logiclife.
Please give me your valuable opinion / suggestion. And select your option.
Gurus, who have already done AC21 and would like to suggest some which is important and which lot of people ignore or would not know unless you are in boat, please suggest or highlight that point. This would be useful for people who would like to use AC21.
Thanking you in advance.

Agree with Anders on shooting small birds. The limited success I've had has only come when I've regularly gone to a location and stood still/sat still so they get used to me. At a bird feeding station in a local preserve, I go during my lunch hour in the winter. I find that I have to stand in one location with camera/tripod set up. When I first arrive the birds all disappear. It takes about 30 min. at this location before they start making their way back to the feeder. I can watch them as they move from tree to tree, progressively closer to the feeder. After 30 min. or so, they'll start feeding and landing in close-by bushes and I can start shooting. Of course, by then, my hands and feet are frozen. The price you pay. Like Anders, I also have more success and shorter sessions if I'm able to visit the same place frequently. If I just had Anders' skills I'd probably have some good shots to show for the effort. This cardinal shot is one lucky result from a frozen-limb effort.

Looks like the EB2 dates for india have retrogressed by two years. I am applying for green card and would like to know if I shouls go with EB2 or EB3.
Thanks for your help...
Truth:
------
USCIS has decided to keep EB2/3-IN,China,Mexico,Philipines applicants in virtual jail for an average 7 to 10 years. So in reality it does not matter what you choose. Whatever you select you will be at mercy of USCIS. Only one thing you should do, in my opinion, not to become monkey if your real goal is to achieve GC in short span of 4 to 5 years. As you hop trees add more number of years per hop. By the way this is the first month you see EB2 retrogressed.
EB3 was in hell for last 4 years. So I am seeing at least 2 years for EB3 moving fast. Your category will be in real effect after at least 4 years of your filing and you can not predict what will happen after 4 years. Only one action is in your control and that is not to hop seeing short term gain."Exploitation from employer" OR "Temporarily seeing particular catgory moving fast or slow" are not good reasons for hoping in the path what USCIS has defined. SO if you try to cross that then you will be in this hell for more years. Whatever you select stick to it till the day you get your GC.

There is no rule/law that'll help you get a green card if you stay here for 10 years or even 50 years.
People are not trying to be rude, just a little confused with your innocence.
Honestly, some of us are waiting legally for more than 12 years for the green card. So, given our situation, your question tickled us.

Answers below:
1. Once the I-140 was approved on your behalf, you get to keep the priority date unless the petition is judged as fraud or misrepresentation (per this forum). This is true even if the employer revokes the approved I-140. Keep a copy of I-140 and you should be fine.
2. The job titile need not match exactly, only the category needs to be same (per your labor certification document) - please check out this link (http://www.flcdatacenter.com/OesWizardStart.aspx). Select your job category and locate the job code and make sure the new job has the 'similar' code.
3. Also, starting a new GC process is not linked with the existing I-140 in other words there is no temporal constraint.
4. Not heard about that.

Nuke bill was an agreement between two nations - India and USA - hence Indian govt had a legtimate interest to lobby for it. Lobbying to change the immigration laws of a sovereign nation by a foreign govt is another cup of tea altogether, and will definitely give a bad name to our cause. You have seen what happened when Vincente Fox lobbied for CIR: even americans who were otherwise sympathetic to CIR were hostile to the idea of a foreign head of state telling them what to do with their immigration laws, and quite understandably so. This is a dead horse anyways - what is the point of flogging it further ?
If the govt can lobby for nuke bill, why they cannot do it for techs?
Govt well know that a big chunk of money is gonna come from NRIs and even bigger will come from future NRIs. To sustains India's growth they need it big time.
In my opinion it would be a good idea to seek Govt of India's help..
thx

I got an approval in March 2007 and status still says 'the notice that USCIS sent was returned as undeliverable". As I guess approval notice was sent to my employer's old address and so returned. My employer got address changed and sent request to Nebraska Service Centere to resent the documents, but documents not received yet. Still waiting.
Thanks!
You should act fast and call NSC ASAP to see why the notice was not resent. I hope this situation doesn't affect our I-485s sent on 2nd July when the I-140 was pending. (It was approved on 7/18)

Thanks Snathan this will be the best. Problem I am facing is that no one is willing to start GC process unless I join them and they start making money to offset the costs. Can you suggest someone who can help?
1. If you stick to your current company, you might make money for few months but you are loosing all that extra cushion i.e. you need time for h1 transfer and applying for labor.
2. If you don't trust and join the new company why would they trust you
3. Body shoppers have mutual interest. They do it for money. They would not start your GC process unless you join them
4. As Snathan said, by the time you file your h1 and get it transfered it will take time. so why not do it.
5. If you want your GC process take risk.
6. Money is not always the crietria. Go gain some thing you need to loose something.
I wish you both good luck on finding your new employer and filing GC.
Play safe.

I dont think we should be talking about it over here. It surely looks like more of Indian site and not a Immigration Only related conversation. We should focus on what our problems are right now. Nuclear deal is not going to help or reduse our wait for Green Card.
This forum topic says "Green Card Retrogression" so lets talk about it only. If we have to talk of the rest of the stuff that is happening with India then it should be identified in appropriate forum and not here.
