I am analyzing a few scenarios to plan ahead and had a question on status during an MTR filing and an AAO appeal.
In the form I-290B looks like there are several options but mainly looks like
a) Appeal at AAO
b) Motion to reopen
From all the web research I see that the AAO appeal process takes 8-14 months for I-485.
If on 1 Dec 2009 the pending EB I-485 gets denied. Then an appeal is filed on 2Dec2009 which gets logged in say on 4Dec2009. What is the status of the alien from 4 Dec2009 till the appeal decision is made in 8 to 14 months ? is it counted as unlawful? Also does it depend on whether appeal gets denied or approved?
In this situation assume:
a)I-140 is approved and I-485 is pending for more than 6 months
b) alien is laid off and no similar job has been found.
c) alien ports to self employment but has no clients as its a new business at the time of I-485 denial. Uses the yates memo and self employment as basis for appeal.

This is somewhat I feel and I may be wrong..
We need to come out in masses and get attention. Maybe we need to put out small number to teams to specialize in each area. A team, which deals with lobbies in DC, additional teams that is out there for PR and media coverage, separate teams to raise contributions, collect ideas from members - discusses and implements some of them.
Also get some high profile people to look into out goals and push them. Some big sponsors (undocumented workers got miller, we need someone too - Microsoft maybe). The media coverage should be saying out goals 'Documented workers need justice...etc' instead of 'Team IV on immigrationvoice....'
We need a headcount on this org and fax/send a common message to everyone with signatures (Like a petition IL had to give driving license to H4's) instead of requesting everyone to send a separate web fax (some members can visit this sites only in a couple of days and may miss sending wefaxes)
I have tired to ge more people like us to look and participate in this Movement but somehow they never bothered to join. We need to unite and re-unite.
We do need to plan something in masses. A march like the undocumented workers may not hurt, we too can be inspired like our bollywood directors.
The only way we are going to get our point out there is more media attention and awareness and what we are asking is fair. The articles I have seen so far 1. Do not have a big number of people involved in it (headcount), 2. More focused to promote 'www.immigrationvoice.org' then out goals 3. Have not reached out to right people (numberusa etc) 4. Have not been read / viewed / supported by the people to whom it is delivered.
And the biggest draw back I see is that we are like accessories to other bill, except SKIL. We need to come out of this tailgating and go through solo. If SKIL is out there, why is it not pushed? Why do people who are already citizens do not except us to get there. There is something missing and some brianers need to sit together and figure it out.
i will stop myself here and I do apologize if I have hurt anyone feelings and again, I may be wrong in what i say. If there is any way I can help, plz let me know

Every thing related to legal and professional immigration is a just cause. But then if we create unnecessary show of force - there is a good chance this will also get politicized - since there are always that small minority who feel US should be a closed country like in dark ages and ONLY they are eligible to belong here.
So whatever we do let us do it professioanllly and wothout much fan fare - so that we achieve our goals.
I wish all the best to all my fellow professioanls seeking to make a good life here and contribute to this great country.

Well, yes I can agree now. If the lawyer did file a service request and did inform OP he was current, then I would say it's not the lawyer's fault.
Just to be clear, the scenario initially painted by OP was simply: my PD is Oct 2005 and my lawyer said "oh, wait for years." Under this impression, tell me that lawyer is not crap?
Gilmout: Good luck with your case. I predict your PD will be current in 09. Heaven knows we need more irishmen in the pubs on St Patrick's Day.

SEPTEMBER 20, 2006
BUSINESSMAN FOUND GUILTY OF MAIL AND WIRE FRAUD
United States Attorney Richard Roper announced that former Dallas area resident Suman K. Varanasi was found guilty on Monday, September 18, 2006, of mail fraud and wire fraud following a trial before the Honorable Jane J. Boyle, United States District Judge. Specifically, Varanasi was found guilty of six counts of mail fraud and six counts of wire fraud, and faces a maximum statutory sentence on each count of twenty years, a $250,000 fine, and restitution. Varanasi is in federal custody and is scheduled to be sentenced by Judge Boyle on December 14, 2006.
Varanasi, a citizen of India present in the United States on a non-immigrant H1-B employment-based visa, founded Zenstra Solutions, an placement service for IT professionals, in April 2003. Zenstra did business at 14001 Dallas Parkway, Suite 1200, Dallas, Texas, through November 2004, when the business closed.
According to the evidence presented in court, from October 2003 through November 2004, Varanasi executed a scheme to defraud Indian IT professionals in the United States on H1-B employment-based visas by offering to hire them for a permanent position with the company and, in exchange for a fee, to file forms with the Department of Homeland Security Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) that would enable them to obtain lawful permanent residence. Specifically, Varanasi falsely advertised on websites popular with Indians living in this country that his company had an approved labor certification - authorization from the Department of Labor to hire an alien for a permanent position - and that if an applicant had the appropriate qualifications, the company would file the necessary forms with USCIS to support an application by the alien applicant for lawful permanent residence. Varanasi falsely represented to applicants responding to the ad that Zenstra had contracts with major IT companies and that, when hired, the applicants would work on projects with these companies. Varanasi charged each applicant approximately $2000-$3000, falsely representing that the funds would go to cover the attorneys fees and processing costs associated with filing the necessary forms with USCIS to obtain authorization to hire the applicant for a permanent position. Varanasi later misrepresented to the applicants that his company had filed the necessary forms with CIS.
The government alleges that Varanasi used this fraudulent scheme to obtain money from over 100 victims, resulting in a loss of approximately $400,000.
U.S. Attorney Roper praised the investigative efforts of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Dallas Field Office, the USCIS Fraud Detection Unit-Texas, and the U.S. Department of Labor Office of the Inspector General.
The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorneys Paul Yanowitch and Christopher Stokes.

Here's what I felt after hearing the show (archives)
Dr. Salzman is a sophist. He never answered any questions straight, all his answers went into circles. I could barely hear him speak. He must've been trembling in fear, that his Science-Fiction will be ripped off by Craig Berrret from Intel, which actually happened. He could never prove his point point despite having another guest (Malcolm) parroting his line of educating minorities to fill STEM positions.
I think there was a pre-planned call from Programmers Guild activist supporting Salzman.They didn't take many calls after that. May be at the behest of Mr. Salzman who must've been too nervous to face the real world!

Hi,
My priority date is march 2005.
I got a good offer from a big company, but they want me to join on EAD and are not willing to do H1B transfer. Is this risk OK? My GC job title doesnot match the new job title though the work is similar. Will this cause any problems? Should I still file for AC21? Or wait till I get RFE? If I file for AC21, what all should I take care?

Hello All,
This is just a general question. Not my own case or anything like that. I'm in same boat as a lot of others - stuck in '07 fiasco. Not a case @ someone I know either. I'm just curious about this. And, I would like to hear from people who know cases like these.
As I understand it, if a girl who has never been to US marries a GC holder guy, the only way for her to come to US to stay with her husband is to go through family based immigration. Is this correct ?
If it is correct, then if the marriage happens today, will it take a few years before the wife can come and stay with her husband in US ? That is what the Visa bulletin says. I'm assuming nothing changes drastically on current immigration scene.
In short, is it a bad idea - at least these days - to marry a GC holder ? Of course, another assumption is that the GC holder is not willing to move out of US.
Thanks....
Getting married to a GC holder if you are in your home country is not a good idea. Then you will have to come through family based immigration. On of my acquantices married a GC holder in 2003 and she was able to come to US only last week after 5 years . So unless you are already here on H1 or something like that on which you can stay here and file for AOS when it becomes current for FB immigration category , you should not marry a GC holder living in you own country. You should be physically here.

AILA is indeed proceeding ahead with the lawsuit and there will be two classes it seems. Class-1) directly injured class - those who filed and were denied.
2)indirectly injured - those who did not file.
The verdict may be different for each class and all depends upon the judge.

In the next few days/weeks, we will start the same from experts, talk show hosts etc about CIR. Some one with a good credibility has to jump on "Break down CIR into pieces" and the rest will join the bandwagon. Separating legals from illegals, Employment based from Family based and doing some thing with it is better than the status quo. For now, status quo is better than S 1639

Already applied for a new passport before I filed I-90.
applied by mail because that is what the consulate told me will work
What I am really missing is my company laptop. All my programs are in there , and I have to start from scrap. USCIS told me the info pass option. I am waiting on consulate to gimme passport.
I actually talked again to the cops. They are doing something they said ( today somebody else talked to me and appeared a lot more sensible. Else they have these "bouncers" who answer your call and reply to you like part time lawyers ) . Lets see what comes out. Hopefully that is not too little - too late
Yeah I paid for Biometrics fee ( again $80 + $270 new GC fee ) but it is not clear if USCIS does biometrics on every lost/stolen GC or only if your 15 month period expires.At one pt I was told you will definitely get FP'ed & other time they said , they need to FP you only if 15 months have passed.
Credit Monitoring Agency : Yes that is definitely an option worth a thought.
Course ..needless to say ...all CC's have been changed
