Dear IV Members,
Last week I received a copy of �Approved I-140� using Freedom of Information Act. I took almost 7 months to get requested information. Following are the steps to use FOIA:
1. Write a cover letter (Sample attached)
2. Complete Form G-639 (Sample form �Freedom of Information Act - G-639 - Form.pdf� attached)
3. Write your I-140 Receipt # in �Column 4�.
4. Important: Make sure you complete �Column 7� or you will be asked to send you application again.
5. For �Column 8� you can sign it yourself under �Executed in US� (No need to use Notary)
6. Send this form to:
USCIS National Record Center
FOIA Division
P.O. Box 648010
Lee Summit, MO 64064-5570
I received copy of approved I-140 last week (Copy of 1st page is attached). You can check status of FOIA request at FOIA Request Status Check (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.8d416137d08f80a2b1935610748191a0/?vgnextoid=f3a2ba87c7a29110VgnVCM1000004718190aRCR D&vgnextchannel=f3a2ba87c7a29110VgnVCM1000004718190a RCRD).

You will not jeopardize your I-485 as long as job with company C is in same or similar occupation. Whether USCIS will grant an H-1 3 year extension based on a withdrawn/revoked I-140 is not certain. I outlined the reasons for this uncertainty in my response on the thread entitled "Facing Layoff---6 months left..."
Thanks Ann for your reply.
So in short, B to C H1 transfer/extension is usually not possible if I-140 is revoked.

I am planning to visit Canada sometime in the summer, and being Indian, I need a visitor's visa.
The Canadian consulate doesn't have much information about Advance Parole holders in the US applying for a visitor's visa, and it looks like the process is the same as for F-1, H-1B holders.
I am wondering if I need to send the original AP (as a supporting document) or if a copy will do.
I can't go to the consulate in person, and have to send my stuff in the mail, or this wouldn't have been an issue.

Does anybody know if premium processing for I-140 has been reinstated? and can one upgrade to premium processing after it's been filed? Also, does anyone know what's the current wait for NSC. My PD is July 26 2007. Thanks

Are you referring to Windows Phone applications? If so, there is no way to do that outside of emulating it on your own. You can download the sample project and watch the video here on a way of doing that yourself though: http://channel9.msdn.com/posts/Jaime+Rodriguez/Windows-Phone-Design-Days-Blend/

Note that EAD is not a valid document for re-entry.
If you have a valid AP - you can re-enter
or
If you have a valid H1/H4 AND un-expired visa stamping - you can re-enter
I had my H1 extension pending and I was able to re-enter using AP (on July 18, 2008 at San Francisco)
She has the F1 stamped on the passport which is valid until Dec 2009 I think. She is finishing much before that. Does it mean she will not be able to reenter on either F1 visa or the EAD?

U.N. Begins Meeting to Discuss Atlanta Labor Certification, Work Conditions in Cambodia
BSNewswire.com
The International Labor Organization (ILO) of the U.N. kicked off a four-day regional meeting in Stockholm Tuesday aimed at improving working conditions worldwide.
"Atlanta Labor Certification (ALC) and the situation in Cambodia remain the most pressing issues we are facing today," Swedish Labor Minister Nils Freivalds, the meeting's chairman, told participants. The participants are expected to endorse The “Missing Application Statue”, a memorial aims at educating the public worldwide about the Atlanta LC tragedy of August 07, when hundreds of thousands of applicants and their families were practically prohibited from applying to permanent residency and gaining labor portability. Those victims might have to wait for several years to get another chance. Atlanta shelved their LC applications for times ranging from 2 months to 2 years while the LC applicants at Chicago where getting results in 2-8 days.
“This statue is created to remind us of what has happened and what could occur if we forget the past. May the tens of thousands of applicants in Atlanta and their families always have a place in our hearts. And may their suffering not be in vain.” said Freivals.
This is the second time a UN agency interfere in an issue related to Atlanta Labor Certification. The first time was in May 2007 when the General Assembly voted to prevent the usage of the term “Atlanta Processing” referring to extremely slow and inefficient systems. The term was considered very cruel and inconsiderate toward the victims and their families.

Can multiple people together file mandamus?
how about signing a petition and send it to Ombudusman?
In last conference call when some one asked about illogical order of processing
she asked him to file DHS 2007 with her office.
how about about 100+ people filing same DHS 2007? and tell her , illogical processing order is root of many many problems at USCIS.
just my 2 cents....

At a recent AILA Conference, Michael Ayetes (USCIS Associate Director, Operations) announced, that during the months of July - August 2007, USCIS had received approximately 800,000 employment based adjustment applications (I-485s): 40,000 concurrently filed with I-140 petitions, 320,000 stand alone applications, and 400,000 dependent applications.
Of the 140,000 annual employment-based immigrant visas available, second and third preference categories are allocated 57.2%. If most of the employment based cases filed in July-August 2007 were second and third preferences, it could take approximately ten years of allocation to complete all these cases.
Although USCIS has posted on its website that I-485 cases received on or before August 9, 2007 have been entered into the system, a number of attorneys have not yet received receipt notices for cases filed at the end of June and July 2007. Moreover, some cases initially filed in Nebraska and transferred to Texas have now been forwarded to the Vermont or California Service Centers for faster processing of receipts.
USCIS is making every effort to process EAD applications within 90 days of receipt. The processing of Advance Parole applications may be delayed due to the number of cases filed.
A Biometrics notice will be issued even if a visa number is not available at the time.

Sometimes, there are no words to describe someone's insensitivity. You just have to let them express it themselves. So, I give you the words of Reprsentative Steve King (R. Iowa), explaiing why TPS for Haitians is not necessary:
Illegal immigrants from Haiti have no reason to fear deportation, but if they
are deported, Haiti is in great need of relief workers and many of them could be
a big help to their fellow Haitians.
Rep. King's statement is reminiscent of Scrooge's statement from "The Christmas Carol:"
First Collector: At this festive time of year, Mr. Scrooge, it is more than usually desirable that we should make some slight provision for the poor and destitute.
Ebenezer: Are there no prisons?
First Collector: Plenty of prisons.
Ebenezer: And the union workhouses - are they still in operation?
First Collector: They are. I wish I could say they were not.
Ebenezer: Oh, from what you said at first I was afraid that something had happened to stop them in their useful course. I'm very glad to hear it.
Congratulations Representative King. You have reached the level of Ebenezer Scrooge in your feelings for suffering immigrants. I am sure you are proud of yourself.

Hi All..
I am on H1 since Oct 07. I haven't left USA so far and so I haven't gone for stamping. However, I heard that I need to go to stamping before completion of 1yr after getting H1. Is this true? and to what cases does this rule apply?
Please help. I am confused.
Thanks,

It will be subjective of the examining officer...he could choose to deny the 140, issue an RFE or may even just ignore it...
