In September 2001, I came here on visitor visa with my mother and resided here till today (I was 15). I went through 4 yrs of high school, got my GED followed by an associate degree from community college and now I'm an undergrad student pursuing my bachelor degree; will graduate in a year. Meanwhile, my mother became a U.S. citizen through marriage when I was a sophomore in college, simultaneously my I-130 was approved and now waiting for the visa availability; the priority date: Dec 08, 2006, F1.
Problem is that I turned 21 on October 13, 2006 right passed the time criterion for the Child Status Protection Act which technically makes me "aged-out" by about 2 months (filing date being DEC06), so I think that I am not be qualified as an immediate relative.
Currently, the visa availability date is at 15FEB06 which is getting close to DEC06.
Few months ago, I received a letter from NVC requesting DS-3032 and I-864 forms which I've filled out and sent to them but I regarded the fact that I live in the United States on an overstayed visa!!! I should have sent them a notice to adjust my status instead of paying the $70 and $400 fees that I already paid, apparently. I am not leaving the country to interview overseas with the NVC because that would put me in a 10 year ban obviously, I also do not understand how I can adjust my status with the USCIS once the priority date becomes current when I do not have a status as of now! So, I might've done all these for nothing. I've talked to some lawyers on the phone but they have completely shut my hopes down (maybe because I haven't paid them?). I do not have the money to pay for an expensive lawyer because all my funds can barely afford my college.
On top of everything, DREAM act just got rejected from the congress as I'm getting ready to graduate from college. I have no idea what to do.
With my college degree and knowledge that I have acquired over the years, I believe that I am an inevitable asset to this country but I am deeply saddened by the fact that American Dream is not becoming a reality for me. I know I can do more for the world but I'm immobilized by the system which I don't see any loopholes to at this point. I understand the views of the Republicans but I really wish that they can give one more look at the DREAM act. We do not intentionally break the law. I would actually be a law-abiding and a model citizen if I ever become one.
Anyhow, I lost all my hopes and dream in this country at this point in time, that I think the only/best way is to move back to where I am from immediately upon graduation.
If there is any hope, your help/advice/inputs will be greatly appreciated!

My online 485 status shows "card/document production" for a long time now and I did not get the card yet. I had contacted USCIS several times thru lawyer and never got any reply. My lawyer said that could have been a mistake.
I finally called hte USCIS directly and got the reply from the Phone rep that my 485 is approved and will open a ticket to find out why my card has not arrived. After a week or so I got a letter from USCIS quoting my earlier call and said my PD is Jan'04 and currently the availablity is only for Apr '02 and I have to wait till the PD is current for case.
There was never an explanation about why my online status shows the card/document in production.
In this case, what are my options ? Please help.
Can't explain the kind of emotional and psychological trauma we go thru ever since we saw online status and subsequent messages from USCIS.

Let's hope that it means the next offering from Canon comes in at about that same price point (about USD$2000). Maybe they (Kodak) know something?
More likely it a natural fallout of their recent announcements regarding their positioning (or non positioning) as a camera maker.

I might add that galbraiths site says that Kodak is dropping the digital backs to focus on making large sensors and develop high end DSLR's. Could be intersting.

I live/work in california - and on the I-485 form it says the address is :
USCIS Nebraska Service Center
P.O. Box 87485
Lincoln, NE 68501-7485
but it also says in the first few lines in the form:
If you live in one of these states or territories, please read this notice to determine your filing location:
ALASKA, CALIFORNIA, IDAHO, IOWA, KANSAS, MARYLAND, MISSOURI, MONTANA, NEBRASKA, NEW MEXICO,OKLAHOMA, OREGON, TEXAS, AND WASHINGTON
AS PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED AND REMAINS IN EFFECT - EFFECTIVE DECEMBER 1, 2004DIRECT MAIL INSTRUCTIONS FOR PERSONS FILING FORM I-485
Also if I use fedex then it cant deliver to the PO Box..I am really confused..
If its possible to file at a local USCIS center its better because it can reach there faster- maybe even today?
Can someone please advise? Apologies if this has been covered already.

IMO: 7th Year extn can be filed if PERM is pending for more than 365 days or if I-140 is approved.
Friends;
I am posting this on behalf of my friend who is on H1 (6th year expiring in Dec, 2011). His labor is yet to be filed and in this connection we have a question. Process has been initiated by employer and tentatively labor will be filed in June, 2011. Hoping that he will be done with labor or I-140 by November would he be eligible for 7th year H1 extension?
Thanks
Venu

I think any non-H1 (including H4) stay wont count. You will have full 6 yrs on H1 visa.
This is wrong. If you go out of USA and come back after a gap of 1 year, then only u will get full 6 years. Other wise whatever your status is ( as L1, B1 etc ) that will count into H1 period

Guys,
I wanted to select an infopass appointment for my wife her case is still pending, mine was approved on sept 4th (thru CRIS mail) at the Boston office
While selecting Infopass Appointment, should I select :
* You need service on a case that has already been filed.
(This seems logical , but it asks to choose from 4 options...the one that seems appropriate is : Case services follow up appointment...but it asks to bring SR (service request no) and that it should be over 45 days from the day SR was opened. But SR was opened only last friday...can I avail this service.
Or
*You need information and other services.
(On this one 4 services are available: one of which is obtain case status....but the question is if I want to obtain case status it must have already been filed...then it should belong to the above one)
Also anyone having experience in the state of Mass...last time we had an infopass we had to go to Boston USCIS office...now it is showing Lawrence Field office for the appointment I took for my wife using the 2nd option from above.
I selected No of people as 2 so can I accompany her to the office?
Thanks,
SoP

HI guys,
Can anyone guide me about the process of getting extension while I-140 is pending in appeal with AAO.
I filed the appeal in January and got the receipt that I-140 is send to AAO. As we know that now it will take about 9-11 months for the final decision. My H1b 7 th year is expiring in June 2008. Does any have had the similar experience of filing extension while pending appeal. Also, how early should I file for the extension.
Please advise.

Thanks alot for your detailed reply.
jus FYI...I didn't file AOS, so thats why I'm worrying to change the employer with the approved 140.
My new employer (Company "B") ready to start the process again, but would like to keep this PD.
Once again thats for your reply.

Yes you can apply for an extension on medical grounds, be sure to include a letter from her Doctor and all the hospital records and explian clearly why the extension is required, this should get approved.

If you travel while I539 is pending, your 539 will be considered abandoned.
Its better to travel anyway if you are planning on it and then apply for visa.
Also do not use friends address. Once you move, you can file for AR-11 online and at that time it gives you an option to link any pending petitions to the address you just changed.

BumbleBee, Thank you for your reply.
I am afraid to talk to any prospective employers as I do not have a copy of I-140 with me. I have a copy of I-140 Approval letter, but it specifies; this copy should not be used as a proof of valid document for official purposes.

Can a felony conviction by a sponsor affect the person being sponsored? If they get deported will it result in any punitive action against the person being sponsored? Is there a time limit where a sponsor can't affect the person being sponsored by committing a crime?

Guys,
My I-485 status changed to below. I did not receive any email from USCIS regarding the update. Is this normal?
Current Status: Card production ordered.
we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you. If we need something from you we will contact you. If you move before you receive the card, call customer service. You can also receive automatic e-mail updates as we process your case. Just follow the link below to register.
I have not received the card as yet, any ideas as to how long it is going to take?

1) Since I140 never required the PD to be current how can one explain the backlog on I140 applications? They used to premium process those it in one month.
2) If 180 days pass since the I485 receipt date but I140 is not yet approved can one use AC21 safely?
(I understand the risk of having the I140 denied and being out of status. But aside of that... )
My understanding that the H1B cannot be ported once you have I140 pending without having to redo your I140 and I485.
The lawyers that created those laws must have been on something ...
Thanks

On Monday USCIS was showing that my EAD card has been ordered and today it changed to Approval notice sent....
What is the difference between these two, anyone?
I know both of them sound like music to my ears but want to know WHEN exactly should I be expecting the actual EAD...
Thanks in advance.
