They are increasing the fees only for the other apllications. I-485 and the related ones will maintain the same fees until August 17th. I think it says so on the announcement from USCIs.
All other forms except i-485 the fee increase will be effective from july 30th and i-485 will get increased post August 17th:)

I know what looneytunezez says is logical, however, a friend of mine who is a paralegal in a big immigration lawfirm says otherwise (something similar to what blacktongue says) - don't know what to make of it, hence the post..

I know for a fact that you cannot count current employer exp for GC.
You can use experience with the same employer, but not in the same position as you note next.
If i start working for the same employer on 15-1031.00 Computer Software Engineers, Applications , is it more than 50% different in role so i can count my 3 years experience when applying my GC ??
Nobody could tell just by looking at the DOT job descriptions. Your actual job and duties are what is important, not any DOL codes or descriptions. if your duties in the 2 jobs are 50% different, you should be able to use the experience.

Hello,
I am here on a H1B visa and my wife is on a H4 Visa. She has recently been admitted to a masters program and would start going to school soon.
1. We want to get a F1 visa for her, so that she can get paid for some work in the campus. Would it be possible to get the F1 visa in Canada. Does anyone have any recent experience on getting this done ?
2. Say we not apply for a visa but only apply for a change of status and do not even go to India or anywhere else before the completion of her program. After that she would go on an OPT. If we go to India then, would it not be a problem in getting a F-1 visa, as her education would already be complete. Does it mean that she should get her visa stamped before she completes her education.
Thanks,
Gaurav
Hi Gaurav-
I do not recommend getting a stamp from canada. Sometimes the Consular officer there can not ascertain her past academic record and her F1 may get rejected. I think you should file I539 to change status. That is safest. If, by chance, I539 is rejected, she can apply for F1 at US consulate in India.
I would advise that you guys travel to India one semester before she completes her studies. One of my wife's friend did that and her F1 was approved despite changing status in US from H4 to F1.
My wife is also in same situation and has F1 status after changing it from H4. She will be graduating this summer but we may travel to India as not travelling will mean she is away from her family for too long.

Hello,
I've been working on EAD for about 4 years now as priority dates are backed up a lot. My I-140 has been approved in 2007 and still waiting on I-485 to get approved. My current employer is not my original sponsor. I changed jobs after the "180 days post I-485 receipt" policy. Now, I'm interested to accept an offer (similar job) in another state. How will this affect my I-485 if I'm changing employers for the 3rd time and this time, at another state?
Thank you very much.

Hello,
I am currently on H4 visa and I am planning to pursue an MBA program. If i choose to study in H4, i know i qualify for the California resident fee discount. If i change my visa to F1 for studies, would i not be eligible for the california resident discount? or would i lose the residency status?
Thanks.
Hi, My wife was in similar situation and I can provide following advice:
If the school is public, then you need to stand benefit of resident tuition fees. However, keep an eye on the bigger picture, that is your career after the school. These days its difficuilt to get H1, although good MBAs should not have this problem. Some CA schools allow OPT and consider time on your H4 for OPT if you were a FULL TIME STUDENT on H4. But you can change status to F1 just before filing OPT (6 months or so) I.e. Be in H4 Status for 3 semesters and be full time student and change to F1 in 4th semester and right away file for OPT or CPT. You will need to work out the technical details of this. Hence you can take advantage of the best of the both worlds.
If it is a private school, resident or non resident fees dont matter. H4 is of no benefit in this case, file for F1 right away.

Hi all,
Thanks for your time...please help.
My I-140 Denied couple of months back and I Appealed (I-290B) this decission with all the evidences to prove my exp & employer's ability to pay.
On June 11, 2009 I got the email from USCIS saying my I140 was approved On June 11, 2009.
But, on June 10, 2009 (previous day) USCIS denied my I485 as well as my wife�s I485. Please let me know, how to reopen both of these�
Thanks for your advice,
crao
To my knowledge, this can be expected when 140 gets denied.. But when you get your 140 approved by MTR or other, you can initiate a process to re-instate the 485 and other which were filed before. Talk to a good attorney and I'm sure you'll be OK.
Take it easy and you'll be OK. Dont panic.. I have read that its not unexpected..

Any other option?

Dude,
I don't have 15 mts time to search on forum. I had a question and I asked, Lasantha promptly answered. And you further wasted my time by writing your expert opinion and now I am wasting my time further replying to you. No hard feelings adios!
Pls do not be rude in your responses. How can you expect others to spend time answering your questions if you dont have time for them.

For all RIR cases, they have gone through March 28, 2005 at least one iterations...They also have been approving cases randomly...
For TR it is still not clear.....They have started posting the jobs in america's job bank...
So it could be anything now...There is no set pattern at present...
There is speculation on immigrationportal that all 2001/02 cases would get through in March april ....
For more info use these trackers..if you donot know about them already...

At this time there is no certainity.At the rate in which dates are moving in EB2 India (1 month move in a year) your PD will be current after 10 years. You may not even consider coming here then.
More realistic is the situation when illegal will get amnesty and legals may be put ahead of line.
Also the window may be as little as 30 days like in July 2007 as long as anytime (say someone with PD 2003 in EB2 --any time in the future)
I do wish you all the best.

Hi,
I want to apply for an H-1 this year. Actually I have a F-1 under OPT. I couldn't find an employer yet but hope get one soon.
I have some questions that I hope some of you could help me out with them.
- Should I hire an attorney to help me tru all the process or can I do it by myself? What you would recommend from your experience?
- How much are the attorney's fees and where can I find a good lawer?
Thank you so much for your help,
Silvia;)

What you mean by "Becareful..lot of screening is going on in PERM"?
You mean in ALL PERM or in EB2 PERM.
My lawyer is very scared to file my new case under EB2 PERM. His opinion is we may get an audit.
I have already EB3 PERM/I-140 approved. And now looking to file EB2 PERM with Bachelors+ 5 year Exp. (due to degree evaluation issues I am not able to file under Masters + 6 month exp).
Ok, I also have one Tradional LC (from Texas) and one RIR case (from MN) pending in BEC.
So the new case will be my 4th case.
