My wife and I are scheduled to go for fingerprinting this month. We have a year old son and obviously we are planning to take him with us as well. Do I need to take any form of ID / birth certificate of my son (obviously he is not to be fingerprinted) but not sure what the rules are with respect to carrying infants for the interview. Anyone who has fingerprinted in a similar situation?

This from Immigration-law.com
06/15/2007: July EB-2 and EB-3 Visa Numbers Open and Consular Processing
The State Department states that they allocated a large number of EB-2 and EB-3 visas because of the USCIS I-140 and I-485 backlogs and because if the visa numbers are not used before the end of the fiscal years, some of them can be wasted. Assuming that the USCIS may continue their current processing times and backlogs in I-140 and I-485, the EB-2 and EB-3 may continue to remain current. However, it is just a speculation and risky to rely on such speculation when one handles his/her immigrant status.
In time like this, the consular immigrant visa application is very risky for the two reasons. For instance, if the EB-2 or EB-3 numbers face a cut-off date again in August or September, unless their immigrant visa is "actually" issued and they enter the U.S. before the retrogression, they will be stuck abroad. For those who are currently residing in the U.S. and intend to apply for the immigrant visa through the consulates rather than adjustment of status through the USCIS, a similar risk will prevail, but unlike the those who are residing abroad, they will be able to extend the H-1B extension under AC 21 Act pending the visa number availability. In this regard, their risk is less but still high in that since they did not submit I-485, they will not be able to take advantage of obtaining EAD and Advancer Parole, not to mention AC 21 portability of the approved I-140 petition for change of employment. All in all, the consular immigrant visa application is not recommended when the future of the visa numbers remins unpredictable.

I have recently applied for Canadian visa , using my AP at LA , using all original documents in person. You can add all your family members in the same application. I used two different applications , but, they asked me to add all the family members in the same application. They will issue visa till your AP validity. Good Luck.

Is there premium processing for I-765 which is t get EAD through marriage.
Of course all the papers are being filed together. But I wanted to know specifically about this one.
I thought I saw it somewhere.
Thanks.
You may expedite the EAD processing if you've a valid reason like financial loss or others.. Check with your lawyer for your specific case...

I wonder when the USCIS will learn to stop playing games with our lives?
Here is my story…
I got my EAD card and AP document last month with a wrong date of birth printed on both documents due to USCIS error.
My Attorney contacted USCIS and he was advised to send the documents back for correction with no fees.
So, we refiled the application and attached the documents. Unfortunately, the entire package was returned to my Attorney requesting USCIS filing fees.
Now, we have filed a complaint with the USCIS Ombudsman’s office and requested their assistance in resolving this problem.
I am planning to use AC21 in Jan ’08, so I am desperately in need of EAD.
Has anyone ever been through similar situation? Do you know how long it will take to process a case at the Ombudsman’s office?
Also, if it is going to take another 2-3 months to get the corrected EAD, am I going to lose all those days or USCIS will print a new expiration date on my card?
Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Nikith,
I guess we get FP for 485. Not for EAD or even AP.
You will get second (or even third or fourth...) Finger print notice(s)
until you get GC every 15 or 18 months.
They need to renew their FP database.
Hope this helps.
Thanks
Hi Gurus
Do we get FP again for second EAD :confused:
Thanks in advance.

I am on EAD. my priority date is Oct 2003 EB3.
I got new job that requires security clearance, so applied and got preliminary security clearance and started working as a contractor at Federal worksite.
Now i got letter from Department of homeland security saying i am not allowed to work at Federal worksite because my Adjustment of status is pending from Aug 2007, also saying Contact USCIS to get resolved or provide evidence i am in touch base with USCIS regards to this matter.
Since my priority date is not current, USCIS is not going to anything.
While applying this job i gave my EAD copy. They accepted Now i do know why i got this letter ?
IS there any one had same kind of situation?
Where or whom should I need communicate at USCIS? do they give any letter?
Thanks

The VBs normally come out on Fridays. So this month's VB will probably be on DOS's website this Friday. But I don't see any positive sign for EB movements. We will be lucky if EB2 and EB3 don't retrogress again, according to DOS's hint last month. To be realistic, there won't be any significant movement without any bills favoring immigration passed.

Hello Mates & Buddies,
I am currently holding Indian Citizenship and planning to file my H1 on Indian passport.
But at this year end I am also planning to take my Australian Citizenship.
So could anyone please suggest or share his experience whether transferring H1 on totally new citizenship is possible or not ? if yes then what's the way ?
And does anyone has any experience or knowledge of E3 (Australian Work visa to USA).
Thank in advance !!!
Always,
Nirms
Are you planning to shift the H1 to a different citizenship for retrogression based issues ?? if so, i dont think there would be any advantage as Green Card Quota's are based on "Country of Birth" and not citizenship..

Hey Alabaman,
First of all thanks for your reply.
No I haven't filed a tax return before, because there was no need. I started studying in August 2008 and remained most of 2009 in the US.
2 points:
1. So therefore I guess I'm a nonresident for 2009 (because I wasn't a lot in the US in 2008).
But I'm a resident for 2010 (because I was in the US almost all of 2009). With 2010 I mean the tax filling I'll have to do next year.
Am I correct with this reasoning? Does the substantial presence test only count for the next year?
2. Is it correct, that they took 25% of my sign up bonus away? I was an F-1 all of 2009.

Dear Friends,
My PD (EB3)is Dec-02. I have gone for Finger Printing twice now.
I see lot of reference to '45 Day letter' in the forum . I have no recollection of receiving the '45 Day ' letter so far.
Am I missing something here?
Can any one of you please explain what this letter is about?
Thanks,
Sreekanth
If you have done your FP twice.. you need to have fun, relax and forget about 45 day letter.. you passed that stage long time back.. this is basically for people who have labor certification pending with BEC.. just in case you don't know what BEC is.. its the Back Log Elimination Center set up to clear labor applications filled under the old system�.. and in case you don't know what the old system is ...........ok� its $5 for every further clarification..

Hi, I know this question is being asked by many people. I am sorry, but still confused. My situation is:
EB3 - Labor filed - Aug, 2004 - BackLogged - Philadelphia - 45 day letter - Replied
EB2 - Labor filed - Nov, 2005, Approved, I-140 filed - Mar 2006 - Approved.
Can I continue using EB3, once Labor Approved anbd I-140 Approved, can I use that PD to my EB2? The job description is definately different on EB3 and EB2. Still can I use the EB3 PD on to EB2?
Gurus, Please advise.
Thanks.

Hi all,
Please help me with the following questions.
I am planning to apply for h1b transfer in the near future but with a paystub that is having salary lesser than the usual one. Is that advisable to do premium processing in this case?
I am looking for the premium processing option as I might have to travel outside USA before I could know about the result(approval or rejection) so I assumed that I can know the result through premium processing, travel without any problem and can get it stamped too.
Or is it fine to travel when I have applied for the transfer?I have my company A visa(which I got last year) stamped in my passport.
please let me know your thoughts
Regards

I have an idea. We can make following proposal to lawmakers....
In next 2 years they can sunset EB3 catagory. In exchange for that they will give visa numbers enough for everyone whose EB3 485 is pending or in pipeline(labor, 140)
What you guys think of this idea?
Anyways there are lot of people who just want to keep EB1 and EB2 catagories. We may get support from them with this proposal......
