I had renewed my passport from Chicago Consulate couple of years ago. Their website is not the greatest and the forms were also very confusing. I had created a thread in this forum seeking some help but no one had any idea about which form to use.
As I lived in Chicago area, I just walked in the consulate, filled out the form, gave them the money and my passport and got it back in 3 days.
This may have changed but if your original passport was issued / renewed 10 years ago then you will need to get a new passport but if it was issued 5 years ago then they will just renew it.
Hope this helps!

I agree - hiring your own attorney would be the best option if money is not an issue.

Guys,
I am also very proud on the news., but lets stick to immigration issues on this site. With all respect to this, please dont post any more on this news. Just imagine if others also post other irrelevant issues here. The admins will be forced to look at threads more frequently to delete such. Do we really want to give them this trouble.. Pls..

but we sent out the application package on June 28 (Friday) and the USCIS received our package on July 1st (Based on the Fedex tracking record). There is no way that my employer can refer to the new prevailing wage databse, which is released on July 1st.
Well, technically your employer is not supposed to set the wage based on the prevailing wage (or any other immigration related number). Your wage should be based on the job you perform.

Just wondering if anybody is giving up hopes of GC and switching from H1B to E3D (Dependent of Australian spouse) to take advantage of 2-yr renewable EADs...? How long does it take to get the initial EAD...Continue working without pay (or is there a workaround) while waiting for EAD?....any problems getting visa stamped with a 'yes' for past immigrant petition filed...
7yrs in this country...EB2 PD of 10/07 due to job changes..no 140 yet, no 485...6yrs in same job? no promotions? with 3yr extensions...frustration beyond words...E3D seems to a ray of hope but no idea of complications involved.
Yeah its frustrating everyone waiting for a GC .. I think doing something is better than nothing. Go with your spouse. Who knows things might take a turn for the better.

Hello
I am working on a L1 B Blanket Visa since the past 3 years. My visa is expiring on 11/18/08 and my employer encourages me to apply for a fresh petition from India rather than apply for an extension here due to the no. of cases denied. My wife is presently employed through EAD which expires the same date.
Is there any way that she can retain her employment while we both get our VISA stamped a month before my current VISA expiry date from India ? She might not get 2 months leave without pay which is the usual processing time for a re-extension of EAD considering we both arrive in US after getting a new VISA in the first week of November 2008. Please advise.

I have my green card interview end of this month in Indianapolis. Not sure why I was called for interview at this time as I have a EB3 India case with a PD of June 2007. I am a july 2007 filer. I was wondering if someone can recommend me a good immigration lawyer around Indianapolis to accompany us for the interview.
I recently used my EAD and moved to Indianapolis. Not sure if that triggered the interview. Any genuine help would be appreciated.

As the H1B season (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) still in full force, we would like to share this great tip from AILA. This post discuss where to file H-1B extensions for beneficiaries working for petitioners, which are not cap exempt, but who are "employed at" cap exempt facilities.
The VSC (Vermont Service Center) refers to the September 10, 2009, USCIS Guidance regarding the direct filing address for I-129 petitions, noting that H-1B employers filing petitions which are cap exempt must file such petitions exclusively with the California Service Center.
VSC notes that in this instance, the term "cap exempt" refers only to those petitioners who are exempt from the numerical limitations identified in 8 CFR 214.2 (h)(8)(i)(A). "Cap exempt" petitioners are those described in 8 CFR 214.2(h)(19)(iii), and include:
* Institutions of higher education as defined in section 101(a) of the Higher Education Act of 1965, 20 U.S.C. 1001(a);
* Nonprofit organizations or entities connected or associated with institutions of higher education, as described in 8 CFR 214.2(h)(19)(iii)(B);
* Nonprofit research organizations or governmental research organizations as defined in 8 CFR 214.2(h)(19)(iii)(C); and
* Petitioners who otherwise would not be "cap exempt," but will be employing the beneficiary to perform job duties at a qualifying cap exempt institution, provided that the beneficiary's duties will directly or predominantly further the normal, primary, or essential purpose, mission, objectives or function of the qualifying cap exempt institution.
All petitions for individuals "employed at" cap exempt facilities will be rejected by the VSC, even if the beneficiary is working for a petitioner which is not cap exempt. So this is a major point to keep in mind.

So a question that's worth pondering. If I am on 485/EAD without H1b, does this mean I have the right to work but not the right to stay in the US?
The EAD card only gives us the right to work (as said on the card, cannot be used for entry), and my 485 has been pending for more that 240 days.
Is there any explicit stipulation for the 485 that allows me to be in the US as long as it is not denied?

You dont need transit visa if you are traveling thru frnankfurt (my 2 cents...just travelled in Lufthansa with expired visa but valid 797...no problems...however i heard it wld be a problem if it were United...so check with the airlines).....keep in mind that one might get stuck anywhere between 4 to 8 weeks if stuck in 221g administrative processing while getting stamping in India (in my case got passport and 797 in 23 days)....something to be aware of....my friend got stamping in india with only 6 months of 797 validity remaining....hope this helps

Graduated from college last year, finally found a job that I really like. Currently on OPT. Just curious to know how long will it take for employer to apply for labor and I-140.
I know most of you are thinking - "are you mad, esp with current gc situation? " the thing is I like it here. My relatives and friends are here. I am hoping that with so many people stuck in the gc process, somebody has to fix it soon - and I (& other newcomers) will benefit from better immigration policy.
can any one let me know how long the initial stages take currently?
the answer lies in your id. :D
