My wife went to US consulate in Kuwait for her H4 stamping on Feb 18th. During the interview she was informed that some administrative process on their end was not completed and asked to pay for the DHL service and was told that she would be contacted by DHL who would collect her passport, get the visa stamped and return it to her. She was also told that it should not take more than 2 weeks.. On her application form, the interviewer wrote NO PIM.
Since then it has been a harrowing time for us. It has been 6 weeks, since then and we still have not heard anything. We have tried contacting the consulate using phone, email and at times my wife personally went to the consulate but she was not allowed to enter. We do not hear anything back from them.
I can understand a couple of weeks, but now its more than 6 weeks and counting. We have already cancelled her and my son's flight tickets once. We have rescheduled my son's doctor's appointment. This delay is having a domino effect on our lives.
My question is - Is there anything that we can do to expedite this process.
Thank you looking at this thread

One of my friend is in the same situation and he has been told by his lawyer that he can get his part-time concurrent H1 Extn for 3 years based on fulltime concurrent H1 approved I-140.
He is going to apply the same soon.
Good Luck!
Thank you very much for the quick response. Do you think I can talk to your friend for further details?

I am having a proiblem with the I140 approval and I485 visa requested in wrong category. My Labor Certification is filed in EB3( BS with 2 plus years of experience). The company does not want to take risk hence filed in EB3 category.
After the labor certification is approved I filed my I140 in EB2 with the appropriate documentation qualifying for the upgraded/change position with additional skills and my I140 got approved in EB2 and the approval has 203 (b) 2.
After filing I485, interview is scheduled and the officer satisfied that the documents are sufficient and I am approveable the Immigration Officer requested visa number and came back saying no visa number is available hence we need to wait. At the time of interview(Ocotber 2005) both EB3 and EB2 are retrogressed. The officer did not give any sort of documents hence did not know anything such what category he requested what code did he use.
In July 27th the Immigration Officer mentioned that the previous officer requested the visa number in EB3(E37). I spoke with an attorney who said that it is possible to change and hence taken the steps to correct the error/mistake of wrong EB Category.Because of this wrong category I did not get visa number.
What are my chances that the USCIS goes back and corrects the error and put back in EB2 and request number in E21 or E26.I already sent the letters of my I140 approval, receipt of I140. What process should I take apart from reaching out CIS Ombudsman, Congresswoman,Senator,self letter addressing to the USCIS about the error and the potential long waiting periods for no fault of mine.
Any suggestions?

BusinessWeek featured an excellent story about O1 visas, often known as the Genius visas. While the spotlight is now on H1B visas or the debate on Immigration Reform, it is important to cover this important and often overlooked visa.
O1 visas are awarded to immigrants with extraordinary abilities in the arts, sciences, education, business, or athletics. The program, for what are officially called O-1 visas (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137182.html), began in 1990 as lawmakers sought to separate these applicants from the pool of those seeking H-1B visas, the visa program for skilled immigrants used by many technology companies. While H-1B (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) applicants must hold at least a bachelor's degree and possess some specialized skill, O-1 visas (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137182.html)are allotted to a more elite crowd: those who can prove to U.S. immigration officials that they are the very top in their fields.
According to the U.S. State Dept.�which makes the grants to successful applicants�9,014 O-1s were awarded in 2008, up 40% from 2004. Among current O-1 visa holders are Dallas Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki, Canadian author Jennifer Gould Keil, Israeli concert pianist Inon Barnatan, and members of the New York dance companies Merce Cunningham and Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane.

Hi,
I�m in EB2 and My I-140 was approved September 2008 through Employer A. And I got laid off on November 2009 from EMP A, within 15 days I joined another Employer B. As per policy, employer B is not going to file GC for me. Already I spend 5 years on my H1B. I check with EMP A�s HR dept, they will not revoke my I-140 and H1B. I know AC21 is one of the options to transfer (Portability) my PD to Emp B after apply I-485.
It would be great if I get answer the below my Question:
1. If my PD is current, Will I eligible to apply I-485 using Employer A I-140 approved?
2. What are the documents needed from employer A, if I want apply I-485?
3. All my friends telling me, I can apply I-485, Is it true?
Tons of Thanks,
Ramkumar
No you cannot apply I485 in company B. when your PD is current if you go back to your Company A , then company A can file I485.

The specific areas are Electronic Medical Records. This is for my cousin who is being interviewed by the clients but do not have enough information about sponsoring H1.
Wanted to know if IT Companies can apply H1 for him as his area falls under healthcare and Information Technology

question: can I file without employer letter
For an employment-based petition, in order to proceed and be valid,
they
need to still INTEND to be employed by the sponsoring employer if and
when
they get their green card. The employer however, does not need to sign
any
forms per se with relation to the adjustment petition. If the alien is
currently working for the sponsoring employer (on H-1B or other) he or
she
can port or transfer employers without penalty or without losing the
green
card process 180 days after they file the I-485 petition. At that
point,
they can change employers and work for whomever they wish (provided
they
have a valid work permit)

Hi GURU's,
I received my original I 485 receipt on which my receipt date is - July 10 2007 and Notice Date is - Sep 12 2007 from CSC(even though I applied to NSC)
After one week I have received Transfer Notice from CSC on which receipt date is - Sep 12 2007 and Notice Date is- Sep 17 2007 saying that my case is transferred to NSC
Now I am confused,
Which one should I consider as actual I 485 receipt date
July 10th (Original Receipt Receive Date) or Sep 12th (Transfer Notice Receive Date)
Please somebody help me, As I planning to use AC21 on Jan 10 2008, Thanks in Advance...

Hi,
In anticipation of birth certificate RFE, i have BC affidavits (from parents and relatives) and NAC ready to submit it will be requested. However, my priority date is not current and god knows, when it will be current.....My question is: Is there a validity period for these BC affidavits and NAC documents? It is almost one year since these documents are made ready and I was wondering if these documents lose their validity one year after the signed date on them?
Please suggest
Thanks
I don't think there is a validity period for affidavits. But just make sure your parents affidavit is attested by a notary. I had a problem with the original birth certificate and I submitted a notarized statement from parents as an addendum when filing my 485 in June 2007. I had the notarized affidavit from early 2006. It was apparently sufficient.

In the last few days there is little news/action about STRIVE act. When this act was proposed all of us got excited and promised to each other to do everything to make it a success. Some of us did make phone calls to lawmakers (as per IV directions) but after that everything seems cooled down. Why are we losing our focus now?
Yes the new Senate bill S.1035 (tightening H1B program) might have put some doubts in our minds; but can we continue our efforts on STRIVE and deal with S.1035 thru amendments when it comes to discussion. Discussion about S.1035 on our forum is fine and in fact we might have to do that to figure out how bad/good it is our specific issues. But in the meantime we have to continue our efforts on STRIVE act too.
