Greencard and H-1B expenses should be paid by the employer. Anything else is illegal. I am requesting admins to close this thread.
Do you have any reference (a legal text) stating this?
I paid $7.5K to my attorney for the GC process. He is one of the AILA Executive Committee members.

For EB based guys, my understanding is that this PD is same as Labor Certification PD which was used for GC - correct me if I am wrong.[/QUOTE]
PD for family based visa is based on the date you file your I-130 for your Spouse. Nothing to do with the Labor certification.

Folks, the idea of this thread was to appreciate what Pankaj did and i am sure everyone agrees with me that he did a wonderful job.
To do it or not to do it, is a totally different thing.
This is a learning process and this rally was done for the first time. So, there were a lot of lessons learned.
We will do a better job in the next rally.
Instead of worrying about the rights and the wrongs, lets spread the words, lets get some more local lawmakers meetings, lets educate ppl about the issue.
Come on folks lets use this wonderful oppurtunity to advance our cause, lets use this positive energy to educate ppl more about LEGAL IMMIGRATION.
IV is a platform where we can unite and get things done together. IV does its best, but IV wants individuals to try at their personal level.
Come on guuys so lets start working on positive things and lets keep on moving forward.
GO IV GO

Dear members,
I am on H1B with I-485 Pending and i have layoff coming. I have Approved EAD but i haven't used it. How much time I have to find another job without loosing H1B Status?
I appreciate your help
You have not mentioned whether your I-140 is still pending.
If your I-140 was approved already, then you can use AC21 portability.
If both your I-140 & I-485 are pending and if you plan to use AC21, USCIS will process your GC as per the following guidelines contained in yates memo.
http://www.uscis.gov/files/pressrelease/AC21Intrm122705.pdf
The above memo is relevant to I-140 pending situation.

I recently moved to Cincinnati, OH.
My I-485 was filled in TSC; when I did an e-file today for I-131, the receipt confirmation documents to send it to TSC.
All other documents on the uscis site suggest sending it to NSC based on OH State.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

So after more than a month of sleepless nights, thanks to Immigration Voice looks like my I 485 application is back on track.
A recap of my situation:
Last month I got an email from USCIS-CRIS stating that my I 485 was withdrawn. After being in this country for close to 10 years and in the immigration queue for more than 7 years why would I withdraw the application ??? I did not withdraw my application !!!
It took me more than a month to find out the reason behind the withdrawal..trust me it was not easy..and guess what ....It was my Attorney who had withdrawn the application in Error. Now what ... I call USCIS multiple times.. talk to many different IO's .. some of them patient and try to help.. some extremely rude.. but all of them had only one thing to say... they cannot help!!..... I get an Info Pass... no help there either.. I set up an emergency meeting with my attorney (one of the large Immigration Law Firms) .. nothing...they accept their mistake tell me that they will do all they can .. but no assurance that they will reinstate the case .. limited forward movement.... things look gloomy and bleak..no one can help me.
Then I called Immigration Voice on the number that is listed on the site and left a voice mail. Promptly got a call back I spoke to a Core member who understood the gravity and urgency of the situation and swiflty moved forward and got in touch with their contacts in the government. The Core member also put me in a conference call with the person who was going to look into my case, I was so relieved that I could explain the situation first hand.
I got a call today and I was told that after evaluating my case my file has been reopened and they have mailed an offical notice regarding the same and I should get it in a few days. *Fingers crossed until I get this notice in hand *
The IV core was extremely sensitive to my situation and were very responsive and extremly helpful. I cant thank Immigration Voice enough for helping me resolve this issue in a quick manner.
I have registered to be a recurring contributing member and I intend to be an active member of this group.
My lessons from this crazy experience are:
- Never trust your attorney, always ask for a copy of any letter/document they send to USCIS on your behalf
- There is no organization besides IV out there that is looking out for the interests of the Immigrant Community.
- We need to strengthen IV in all ways we can, we need to be active.
- And as so many members have already said "We are IV." If we want things to be better "WE" need to do something about it.
I urge members who are still contemplating becoming active members to evaluate their options and to become active and contributing members of IV.
- Peace
ps:
Another point I would like to add is that no other organization has the kind of reach and the credibility with USCIS as IV has as far as representing the true interests of the Immigrant Community goes. IV is a huge asset we have and we should work towards strenthening it.

Thanks for all the responses. My question is: Can one legally be on payroll of two companies and draw salary from them, both on H1? How about both on EAD? And, one on H1, the other on EAD?

Based on one of the core member's request, I did the research and shared the information with IV members, so that when you get the GC, you could make informed decision.
Please be optimistic. You getting GC should not be a question of “if”, it should be a question of “when and how soon”.
REQUEST ::
Please support IV and make it happen soon.
I think this thread is very informative and relevant at this time a lot of people are getting green cards and that has to be on their mind.
I did read about a case long back in 19XX there was a brink mason who came here on an EB GC and worked for his original employer for just 1 day and switched the employer sued or may be the INS charged him (Not to clear on it) but the gist is that he got his GC and courts ruled in his favor because he showed that the work promised was not the one he was asked to do the conditions were different and hence he was not bound to work in those conditions.
BTW I think this is very relevant thread gave you some green. (Actually my green turned your status from Red to Green):D

I am in a similar position and am going to wait till the end of the year for the AP. I am hoping to be able to go for the H1B stamping with the AP. So if there is any problem with the H1 I can atleast re-enter using the AP. Its a nice backup...

I think you make some very good point about funding. I see some people complaining how a lot of members aren't contributing. I think it is plain naive to expect everyone to contribute.
People can be divided into three types:
1. People willing to fight what they percieve as injustice.
2. People who complain but do nothing about what they think is unjust.
3. People who accept injustice as part of life.
This isn't just about immigration. It could be any issue. Most ppl want someone else to do what's needed. They don't want to spend time or money. There will always be a few ppl who are active. If you belong to category 1, don't expect everyone to belong there.
The other aspect IV should consider is broadening the goals. IV has done good work but the core focus seems to be retrogression. Tens of thousands of ppl have cases rotting in BEC for 3-5 years they are not going to contribute to an organization that will put them at par with ppl who filed for labor in the last couple of years. It goes against human psychology.
Just my 2 cents....
--for you only.please read below the reply posted by fellow member franklin--
First off - I have contributed, but here is an explanation of my initial reluctance to do so and possibly why I haven't contributed more than I have, since you asked.
I have often been offended by the tone and bias on this board, when it is plainly evident that the majority of power posters think their own situation as being the only thing that should be resolved, alienating others as a result.
Don't tell me to donate by spending less money on stuff that culturally I never do, or refer to people that I know little about - all for cultural reasons. It was this thread that spurred me to contribute, and ironically, this thread that also offended me first. I still haven't forgotten that.
Wonder how else you alienate people? Try posting in a language that isn't English.
Regarding the recent pledge drive in particular, it gives me a nasty taste in my mouth since it stings of hypocrisy that I can't get over. A similar one was attempted by a member here (which I signed up for), using the ""I will donate $10 monthly to Immigration Voice for one year but only if 1,000 other people will do the same."
That effort, although endorsed by the core group, got 88 people to vote, and was criticized in these very forums as being a waste of time, or not the proper way to do it. Of course, fast forward a few months and now look...
I also find it distasteful to have to read through threads that could be of some importance or value, but find that good chunks are just "Hey, look at me, look at how much I contributed"
So, since I'm all bitter and alienated , why did I actually contribute?
Every time I get annoyed or offended by someone's insensitive or cultural narrow mindedness, I try to ignore it and remind myself that that single person does not represent the values of the core group and this organization as a whole. It gets challenging.
Please don't flame me, I am trying to be honest

Thanks for your kind reply. Yes this amount of 40K is what i saved from my salary after my employer deducts taxes via withholding. I am confused because I read that you have to declare any foriegn accounts help while filling for taxes here in US. I made these trasnfers to my dad's account and I dont have any NRI account. I am not sure if I will fall into this category and have to declare all this. Thanks again for your help.
