Great story, another example how the illegal immigration debate is now a big part of our culture.
In 1993, when I was 14, I became a regular on �Sesame Street.� The show usually liked to have a teenager on, so that was me. My character had my same name, Carlo, and eventually I got a job at Mr. Hooper�s store. I had to make a birdseed milkshake for Big Bird, that was my tryout. I ended up appearing on �Sesame Street� for five years. But the whole time, I had a secret: I was an undocumented immigrant. The papers I�d used to get hired were fake.My family had come from Ecuador when I was seven and my older brother Angelo was nine. We came on a tourist visa, and the moment my parents had gotten it, we knew we were not coming back. They sold all our furniture before we left.
My mother had a sister living legally in the United States, and my parents planned to have her sponsor us for residency. Soon after landing in New York, my parents saw a lawyer. But we were told the process would take four or five years.
Coming to the States was traumatic. In Ecuador, we had lived in a house. Here, we were in a small apartment. We didn�t know any English. But you know, at that age, things change quickly. In six months we were speaking English and running around like normal kids. Most of the time, we blended in. But we knew weren�t supposed to be here, and we lived with a lot of fear.
I started acting when I was 11, almost as a fluke. One day, we went to visit our cousins, and they were on their way to try-outs for a community theater production of �Oliver!� It was through a program put on by the city, to get disadvantaged kids off the street. When we got there, the producers were like, �You should try out, too.� So my brother and I did. Then we all went to lunch. When we got home, we had a phone message that we�d both been cast. I was Oliver.

I have a question about the Aytes memo - it says that if the name check has been pending for more than 180 days, then the 485 will be adjudicated. My question is when does the 180 day clock start? Is it on the day that the 485 application was received by the service center (going by the receipt date on the 485 notice)? Or is it the day when your PD and processing dates both become current?
Thanks,
Kunal
Neither I think( i might be wrong though ). I think the 180 days is from the day USCIS submits your case to name check.

You could have asked for the old I-140 priority date to be tranferred to the new I-140 at the time of filing the I-140. Now that the I-140 is already approved, it will be difficult to get them to make any changes on an approved I-140. Interfiling of new I-140 with old I-485 is possible once the visa number becomes available. The problem is that USCIS does not always acknowledge that they have done this, therefore you might be unsure if this was done or not. Some people prefer to file a new I-485 for this reason.

I dont think this is going to affect non immigrant community (read as H1s, GC etc). This is all about politics to gain the support of rich and influential Indian American community for the DNC and upcoming elections.
This is what politicians do, be it the US or India or any place on earth. BHO is one of them, isnt he? :cool:

Sorry if I am posting this in the wrong place, wasn't exactly sure where to post.
I applied for my Certifcate of Citizenship through my US citizen father about 5 years ago, and due to that US citizen father being an ass I still don't have it.
I have decided to just go back to England. I am happy about going back now and this post isn't about finding other ways of getting my citizenship.
When I originally came to the US I intended just to visit so I came on the Visa Waiver Program, and then decided to stay and become a citizen
My query is: When I leave to go back home will I be able to leave the US with just my passport(recently renewed) and ticket? or will I have to contact the USCIS and get some kind of letter or the like?
Thank You

My wife is in the same boat. We filed for H1 amendment in the first week of September and online status tells it's done on 20 November. We still have not received documents in mail from USCIS. This was in Vermont. We were told initially that it might take upto 3 months.

Dont count on it. There is very narrow chance. If you opt CP in 140, NVC will send your papers to consulate abroad, only after your PD become current. Consulate will take their own time to arrange the interview. It will take one month to six months after they recive your file from NVC. During that period the PD has to be always current. Consulate takes out visa numbers for CP, only after a successful interview. If your PD retrogress with in a month (like last year fiasco) consulate will not schudle a interview till it become current again. In that case your file will stuck for ever. Therefore, 485 is the best route. CP is the best route, only if the cutoff dates does not flutuate or retrogress back.

Here are the options,
1)Reschedule by calling the USCIS.
2)Go and attend, and they might ask your wife to come back, if they are not satidfied. Actually my hands are dry and the officer is not satisfied, he said he might ask me to come back again.
3)I do not know how much time you have left, but go to any indian grocery store and ask them if they have any henna remover like nail polish remover. Do search online for any liquid to get rid of it.
Also wait if any similar experiences from our members.
Hope this helps, and the decision is upto you.
Thanks

Hey guys
I just wanted to let you know that all the San Jose members are thrilled that other people have been inspired to hold their own rally.
We are working on a document that details what gives advice on what we did and how we did it. As well as things we learned that we should have done!
Hopefully we'll be able to post it in a few days time, but please bear with us, we need sleep, to catch up at work and make sure we cover all the details.

Is there any solution going to come to help peoples here for 9 � 10years paying taxes, contributing to social security, Medicare, having clean records etc, and stuck on numerical limits and VISA numbers availability.
Being in this situation is not because of not started process timely, where as this is caused by the way processing tied up with employer to get GC. And as soon as changed employer the whole process reset. Sometimes employee has to take decisions in the best interest of employers, where as one has to pay price like sitting in the GC Queue again and which was also not bad till the retrogress hit hard.
There also best possibilities that people stuck in queue and waiting for GC are highly skilled, financially healthy, and capable to invest but surely not doing so in the anxiety
Even in the current economic situations most of them also lost their big chunk of money from 401k, IRA and other investment which is going to take years to recover.

Thanks chantu, does that mean we need to keep renewing her EAD every year. Also, can we renew her h4 when I renew my h1. Thanks ....
Yes you need to renew her EAD every year or every two years now a days. You do not have to renew her H4 because now she is not on H4.

Hi Gurus,
Please suggest me the best option as i am still undecided.
My employer terminated my employment when I lost my job with the client company during 2nd week of June 2009. Before termination, my employer filed my GC and I have my EB2- 140 approved (PD- Feb 2007) and also My previous H1 extended last year 2008 and they have issued my visa for another 3 yrs (3rd term in H1). Since then I am without job and looking for an opportunity. But to be on safe side I left the country before the 30 days of my termination. I came back to US on H4 visa (so that I will be in-status and my GC won't get affected).
Now i am getting an opportunity for a FT position with a company and now I am undecided what to do? If I took the FT with a new company and then my GC process will start from beginning (applyng labor and then once approved (don't know how long it will take to approve labor in EB2) I can then file for 140 porting my previous approved 140 -eb2 with PD Feb 2007) or Just wait until I find a contract job and go through my previous employer and continue my GC process from where it is left.
Currently the PD for EB2-I is in 2005. So should I wait and go smoothly with my previous employer (but still we don't know how long it will take) or go with the FT.
Please suggest me.
i am badly need your advice.
Regards

Raj,
That will take some creative googling. Clearly, tech/South Asian professional associations are our best target audience, but at the very least you'll find regional associations -- Tamil, Telugu, who knows maybe even the Bengalis!
The other type of organizations to call are the development based ones (like Asha, Seva)-- they will at least know of other community organizations.
Is there anyone else out there in Seattle? Any ideas?
best,
Berkeleybee

I am a resident physician on h1b visa which is expiring on 6-30-2010 . I am in process of applying for H1B extension for my fellowship. My wife is on H4 visa (expiring in 3-20-2013 since she got 5 yr multiple visa). Recently she visited Kuwait and on her re-entry she was given entry (on her I94) up to 3-15-2013 (up to 5 days prior to her visa expiration). Will she also need extension in this case along with my extension or can she stay in US till 2013 with out extension Thanks.
