This is a news RK charging for suggestions.
I spoke to him couple of times prior to becoming his client and he never charged me anything.
He was very polite and replied all my questions. He even responded to my emails. This was in 2006.
I also suggest Amarnath Gowda(www.gowda.com), even he won;t charge any money for the suggestions to the general questions.
I used Gowda and RK and I was satisfied with both of them.
You should clear most of your questions prior to hire any attorney, then choose them according to to your satisfaction.

Hey Everyone,
My brother is a US citizen who has filed an I-130 for me and my family in May, 2008. We've traveled to the US on B1/B2 visas in February, 2009. The thing about it is that in the DS-156 form point "36. Has Anyone Ever Filed an Immigrant Visa Petition on Your Behalf?" we've answered "No". I've had no idea at that time that it was referring to the petition for alien relative. Anyways, we've returned back home in time. Also, I've had 3 visas before (2 tourist and 1 student) and never violated any immigration laws.
Then in December, 2009 we've applied for F-1 visa and got denied. This time it was a DS-160 form that we filled out which replaced the old DS-156 form. It didn't have that question about the petition anymore. I think they've decided to exclude it because a lot of people were confused by it. Anyways, the consulate officer didn't like the fact that I haven't transferred my credits from 2 courses of University that I've completed in my home country. Plus my major differed from my previous education course.
So my question is. Is it ok to apply for F-1 visa while I-130 is pending? I mean we've been issued B1/B2 visas before. Even though we've answered "No" to that question, they saw that I had a brother in the US who is a US citizen. I'm thinking of transferring my credits and using same major course this time or at least similar. This way in the eyes of the consulate officer it will look as I am going to the US to finish my education. The thing is, I am planning to attend community college first in order to finish general courses and then transfer to the university. My major in my home university was physics and this community college doesn't have it. I may go with "general education" course at the community college and explain to the consulate officer my situation.
Is it even legal to apply for F-1 visa while I-130 is pending? I believe so. My another question is. Once I finish education. What's the next step would be? Will it be easy to transfer from F-1 to H1B visa while I-130 is pending? What about my wife and a baby who will be on F-2 status? Please share your thoughts. Thank you!
For F-1 visa, you need to show non-immigration intent; i.e., you do not plan to immigrate to U.S. In your case, the combination that I-130 is pending, you want to apply to a university that does not have your major, etc., sends a very bright red flag.

Well here is what I have thought of doing if I get into your shoes when I140, US GC looks dicey. (I already have Canadian PR till August 2010).
I would take a three/four week vacation and go and live there. Prepare for a job and get first hand ground feeling of what it feels like living in Canada, make a living and raise a family. After all making a living to able to support yourself is a important corner stone thing. You can't live of fresh air.
Can you compare your situation ? No. You are not the same nature, skills, personality, intelligence and willingness as others and most of all your own Luck. You know yourself best and the only way you can tell that the place will work out for you is when you go get a sample for yourself and your gut feeling. I went to Vancouver and just loved the place. My wife saw the clouds and gloom and hates the place (spoilt by southern california). You will be your best judge.
Take the harshest sample: Winter is tough in Canada. Go now and take a feel of what you will be expecting and set your expectation.
Info: Approx 90% of the Canadian population lives within 100-200 miles north of the US border.
Down the road: Make a plan and see whats your options down the road. Looking back is no good way of planning for the future. 3 years + few months, you can be Canadian Citizen. You have then the option of using TN and come right back into the USA, if you even have the need. Looking back now I feel I should have started this journey 2 years back. In the next year or so I would be a Canadian and could have come right back without the 140 and 485 headache. After two years I am still holding my breath for 140. Rightfully, Heaven is where I feel at peace. US has made me feel miserable and bitter after 9 years of rough rollercoaster and no end in sight. Can't buy a house, can't live freely, always on the edge and mercy of the Boss and H1B.
Having Canadian PR in hand is like having a bird in your Hand, and US GC is like two birds in the bush (I feel the birds are in Bush in Texas :) and its going to eat me, rather than I eating it) You don't even have the US Bird in sight and the story is getting tougher....
All options good. Go spend some time in Canada and see what your gut feel says.

Why sing American Anthem?
Dear Friend
That�s the difference between the last generation immigrants and us.
When they came to us they embrace America as their homeland, and keep their roots. But we are not, because of that we let Americans suspicious about us.
I don't want you to forget your roots, Keep it as it also embrace the place where you live and earning your daily bread and butter.

How do we know if you have 40 credits?
Where do we check or compute this?
You get a yearly social security "statement" telling you how many credits you have accumulated.

I think, if at all Minister is being planned to be met , it is better only few problems are presented to Minister.
PROBLEMS IN INDIA MAY DILUTE THE FOCUS. I think the following would be best to present ..
1) Retrogression.
2) Social Security Treaty.
Numbers justifying above data can do a lot good to explain the problem.

I guess EB3 will finally cross 2001 barrier in the next bulletin.
For Eb2, it will be like the new EB3. Just too many cases were filed in EB2 after 2005.
Good luck to everyone.:)

I would say Canada because British Columbia has a much higher standard of living than Boston. Canada is generally a much better place for raising kids and the stress levels are lower because of freebies like health care etc. BC also has a much better weather compared to Boston.
The other reason is that you could always come to the USA from Canada later but if you lose the Canadian PR now and don't manage to get a green card in the US, you lose everything.
Hi All,
I would really appreciate everyone's honest opinions on this matter.
We filed 140 and 485 concurrently in July 2007, EB3. As of now there is no word on either application. Previously we had also obtained Canadian PR, the 3 year grace period of which will expire this August.
Not only am I faced with a decision of staying in the US or going to Canada, but my future career is on the line too. This year I will be 23. After taking my undergrad degree in electrical engineering, I have been accepted into Boston University Law School in the US as well as the University of British Columbia Faculty of Law in Canada. Canadian lawyers make around half as much as American ones after all factors are considered.
In your opinion, should I stay in the US, going to law school, in hopes that the green card will come through, or should I pursue a new life in Canada, but take the lower future salary / international renown?
This issue is currently causing much discord in my family. I hope to hear your frank opinion so that I won't take my decision lightly.
Many Thanks! :)

I had contact with pappu on how to best channel the funds from my contributors to IV. The way I finally did it was to have them contribute to IV directly. However, some of the contributors were hesitant to chip in $100 minimum. So, I collected money from them through paypal, check and then did a personal contribution to IV.
I wish IV could set up a Paypal etc. account for my event where folks could directly contribute.

Based on what I heard(my experience too), if your attorney submits your I485 along with EAD and AP, you don't get a FP on the EAD card. When you apply for EAD online, then you will do a FP based on the FP notice that you will get later.
To activate EAD, you need to go to SSN office and apply for new SSN and once you get your new SSN, you are all set.
This is only my experience. For expert advice, always check with a qualified attorney
My wife will be on H1(currently on H4) october onwards...we received our EAD's yesterday. Can I still go and apply for SSN? I mean will that mean she is on EAD and H1 no longer valid?

I just wanted to confirm this is possible and if somebody has any experience in doing this.
In the thread you should find the process of contacing your local USCIS office to have your I-94 updated.

In this current scenario , by the time anybody get to file 485 , he/she would have spent considarable time with the same employer with no promotion and pay hike. The thought of to spend another 1 year after green card leaves everyone shivering and hence was my earlier post
