Now this is just to get an idea on what to expect if one of the Immigration bills passes and signed in to law say by mid 2007.
What can we expect next?
What will happen to highly retrogressed countries like Indian, China? When can they expect any tangible results?
What will happen to the �Rest of the World� category? When do you think they can expect results?
What will happen if ALL or Most of the catagories become current. Are we going to get stuck with processing delays for months or years to come ?
What Next ?? Simple...
Finger Printing, EAD, AP, NAME CHECK, GREEN CARD and CITIZENSHIP :)

When my wife entered the US, since her passport was nearing expiration, the officer at POE put in the I-94 valid until passport expiration date (March 15, 2009), even though H-1 is valid till Sept. 2010. Eventually she got her passport renewed, but we are not sure if she has to travel out of the country before this date to get a new I-94. We have filed for 485 and she has a valid EAD & AP. Here are my questions.
1. I believe, since her 485 is pending, staying beyond I-94 validity (March 15 2009) does not mean she is out of status. Also, due to the same reason she does not start to accrue unlawful presence. Is my assumption right?
2. If she uses EAD to continue working, and at a later date travels out of country and returns, will her H1 status be reinstated as she has a valid H1B (both 797 and visa stamp)?
Thanks in advance,
Prasad

It is not as simple as that. PERM started only last year - march 2005 to be precise. Now imagine someone from India who has a pending LC app using the old system in EB3 in December 2004 - his application would most likely still be languishing in PBEC or DBEC. Optimisitically, assume he gets his labor approved in September 2007 (when DOL has promised to clear the backlogs) - Even assuming he gets his I-140 overnight, an end-of-2004 PD will certainly not be anywhere near current by the rate at which EB3 India dates are progressing, So that means another 4 - 6 years or so just to FILE 485. All this assuming his LC is approved - if LC gets turned down after waiting 3 years, he has to start over with a new 2007 PD !!
This is exactly the situation that one of my colleagues finds himself in.
So one temporary solution to all of this is the ability to file for I-140 and 485 even when labor is pending.
I have full sympathy for your colleague. That is a nightmarish situation.

It is hard to find Software engineers who do not qualify for EB2. I guess after couple of years EB2 would be as packed as EB3.

Violation of regulations is also affirmative misconduct.
Here is an extract from my brief
8 CFR � 103.2(b)(18), titled �Withholding adjudication�:
�A district director may authorize withholding adjudication of a visa petition or other application if the district director determines that an investigation has been undertaken involving a matter relating to eligibility or the exercise of discretion, where applicable, in connection with the application or petition, and that the disclosure of information to the applicant or petitioner in connection with the adjudication of the application or petition would prejudice the ongoing investigation.
If an investigation has been undertaken and has not been completed within one year of its inception, the district director shall review the matter and determine whether adjudication of the petition or application should be held in abeyance for six months or until the investigation is completed, whichever comes sooner. If, after six months of the district director�s determination, the investigation has not been completed, the matter shall be reviewed again by the district director and, if he/she concludes that more time is needed to complete the investigation, adjudication may be held in abeyance for up to another six months. If the investigation is not completed at the end of that time, the matter shall be referred to the regional commissioner, who may authorize that adjudication be held in abeyance for another six months. Thereafter, if the Associate Commissioner, Examinations, with the concurrence of the Associate Commissioner, Enforcement, determines it is necessary to continue to withhold adjudication pending completion of the investigation, he/she shall review that determination every six months.�
The legal alien�s application has been pending for over 2.5 years at the time of filing his complaint with the District Court. So, according to the requirements of 8 CFR � 103.2(b)(18), his application should have been reviewed twice by the USCIS district director (at 1 and 1.5 year marks), once by the USCIS regional commissioner (at 2 year mark) and once by the Associate Commissioner, Examinations, with the concurrence of the Associate Commissioner, Enforcement. There is no evidence on record that these procedures have been followed. Therefore, the USCIS have violated the Federal regulations and �unlawfully withheld� adjudication of the legal alien�s application. Furthermore, 8 CFR � 103.2(b)(18) is not part of the Subchapter II of the Chapter 12 of the INA, therefore jurisdictional bar of � 242(a)(2)(B)(ii) does not preclude review of the withholding of adjudication.

if you have an h1 approval till a later date than the I-94 was given for,( because of passport expiring), then making a long trip to Canada was an exercise in futility. All you had to do was go to your closest international airport and talk to a Customs and Border Protection Agent. He will gladly give you a new I-94 which will have a validity date till the date on your H1-B petition.

Thanks..I am saying or implying that they broke a Law..I am not an expert in law.. I was just intrigued by what is written on the homepage ""It is discriminatory to have laws that subject immigrants from 4 nations to more backlogs and the resulting hardship from such backlogs."
So from all the replies , it looks like Money is the main issue ( and off course effort & commitment ).
We are having donation drives here right? Need to get inputs from law experts and if they think we have a chance - why not ?
Even though it is discriminatory, it is still within the law - and therefore cannot sue our way out of this mess!

Hi
We are in AOS pending status.iam on EAD.
After seeing the economy Iam planning to send my wife to india. She is pregnant ( 2 months).
Now I have job and in future if I get into any trouble with project Etc.. I need to pay the medical insurance and will have lot of financial issues.
How difficult is to bring new infant to US from India while our AOS is pending and apply 485.
( Visito visa Etc..)
Any suggestions.
Thanks
1.You need to be on h1(your wife&kid needs to be on H4)
2.My suggestion:use EAD if you need to use but don't send your wife to India.Use your savings for your Insurance & living(in the worst case).
3.Also keep in mind that you have to spend about $2000 to send her to india and bring back to US with which you can buy 3 months of insurance.
