Hi,
I have same case.
X:EB2-I-140-PD DEC 2004 approved JAN 2008
Y: EB2-I-140-PD DEC 2007 approved July 2007
485 filed on Jul2 2007 with Y I-140
On aug 1st lawyer sent a request to USCIS to process the I-485 with X-140 PD.
Still no LUD on I-485/I-140...
Anyone knows how long it takes for such cases?

Hi,
Generally FOIA does't give approval notice. But other stuff you recieved should be enough. What date did you use for port of entry, your first one or the latest one?

I would LOVE to meet the good Senator. However there is this debate that whether we shud wait for the specialists to give us points or make them ourselves.
Let us be clear on what the approach is.

hi lavanya,
since the clock is ticking, your prime concern shud be to get hold of someone who can get the paperwork done quickly and apply +vely on april 1st. He may not be the best, but as long he follows all process its enuf for now. For that matter, even if u get a rfe its OK, as long as its not rejected u r good with respectedto competing in the lottery...(possible this year also)
To make sure they dont miss anything important, get an appointment with some local immigration lawyers and cross check the different things that need to be done ensure the appln is complete and it doesnt get rejected.
take an appointment and explain ur situation and for about 150-200$ they will explain and give u detailed list of things needed that will serve as a checklist so that u can ensure the actual lawyer dont mess up things due to rush.

No one ever has gone to court over a Noncompete agreement issue. No one will.
Most things in Business run on 'the word', and a non-compete is one of them.
Now, if the company you are working for has more consultants working for the client, the client should be able to convince your company to let you go without any issues.
Also, there are always some loopholes that are not covered in the non-compete, and it would help to explore along those lines.
Very common idea is if job responsibilities change or if you are moved to a different project via a different vendor..
Also, is the non-compete between the two companies written by a law firm and is of any legal binding? If not, what good is that outside the two businesses?
I still do not know why would you want to work thru a different Vendor?
Is this a Preferred Vendor issue?
I mean, if you are anyways going on an AC21(assuming you are one of us :))
why not push for a direct employment, that would ease the non-compete issue far more then the Vendor move.
And finally, if the Non-compete is between the Client and the Vendor, why are you worried?
someone please explain me how complete agreement works. I am working for the client through the main vendor who has a noncompete agreement with my employer (This is signed by my employer, not me). Now I am planning to leave my employer but the client is interested keeping me in the project through another vendor. Can someone explain me if it is possible?
Since the Noncompete is between my employer and the vendor, how am I responsible since I didn't sign anything? Don't laugh, may be I am ignorant

For those who think that this is good and will not affect them -
What we are hearing now in the news is just the tip of the iceberg. It is just ground work to justify tougher measures against employment based immigration. If it continues, CIR will be passed giving path to citizenship to ILLEGAL immigrants without any measure for employment based immigration. Remember, the only folks who have been in influential position to support EB immigration has been big businesses (like Microsoft, Oracle) and AILA. With the rising unemployment rate, nobody will listen to these businesses. With the indictment of (even a few) cases of H-1B fraud, AILA will not be able to fight the impending tsunami against legal employment based immigrants.
If we don't do anything, illegals will be citizens while people with H-1 and even EAD will be forced to go back. This is the beginning of the end to employment based immigration.
For those who can't read normal font.
BTW, update your profile when you get time, it will help IV and you.

Hello, I just want some clarification please.
My husband has a L1A (we came to the US on an L1B which was converted to an L1A after 4.5 years). The current visa runs out June 2011, that will be our 7 years. We have decided to move forward with a Green Card. However, this morning we received a email from his HR saying they have checked with an immigration guru and they have said that we have to leave the US for 1 year (to re-enter as an L1A again) as we have L1A status and not H1B status, (if we had H1B status they could move forward with the GC). They also said, they can however start the GC process whilst we are out of the country but it will take from 6 -8 years. Do we have to leave the US for a year or can we convert an L1A to a GC.
Also if we did not get a green card before June 2011 (visa expiration) would we have to leave the US or could we stay awaiting the GC processing.
Thanks for any help.

As per the document:
total EB2 visa available: 40040
Grand total of EB2 pending: 33850
So, technically all the EB2 applicants should get their GC during the fiscal year of 2011. Even in the situation where no fall down from EB1.
Seems like good news for many and hopefully foir EB3s as well if further fall down of visas occur.
Guess, USCIS should wake up and move the dates faster instead of jungling during last quarter of the fiscal year.
i guess it doesn't count ppl who are waiting. The no of ppl who are not able to file 485 is huge.

How long did it take for you after filing the FOIA to get the concerned documents ?
Complex tracks(track 2) taking 2-3 months these days, like the one I requested for the complete set of documents in file of my I-485. They send me the CD with all the documents in PDF format.
But if you are looking for specific document I guess it will be faster as they put in simple track(track 1).

A piece of black velvet or similar material would fix that, and isn't too expensive if you stick to one or two.I picked up small pieces of black and white non-reflective velvet that do a nice job. Any local fabric shop should carry it. Not cheap, but it won't break the bank. They might have remnants that would be large enough.
