Risk of GC Rescission for Failure to Notify Change of Job / Employer!

http://www.murthy.com/news/n_risres.html

http://www.murthy.com/news/n_apprea.html

"The particular case has been issued a NOIR on the basis that the employer revoked the I-140 petition and there was no information on record indicating a qualifying position under AC21."

That's the whole point. If you know that petitioning employer will not withdraw I-140, there is no need to notify the USCIS about the job change. Obviously it's in someone's best interest to notify the USCIS of invoking AC21 if there is a risk of I-140 withdrawal.

And at the end, the GC was not rescinded even though the person did not notify the USCIS about AC21:

"After about eight months of persistent follow-up on our part with the various federal agencies and AILA, we received a favorable decision for our client. It stated that, upon further consideration, the grounds for the rescission did not apply and that, after a complete review of the record of proceeding, the original approval of the Adjustment of Status Application was reaffirmed."

The only leeway USCIS has w.r.t EADs are the duration of the EADs and not the timing of the issue of the EAD. The fact that the EAD can be given only after the I485 is filed is governed by the INA.

Further the grant of EADs in all the eligible categories is more or less the same. Even if the timing of the grant of the EAD were in USCIS hands ,it is hard to request an alternative interpretation of the regulation in some cases (eg after I-140) while retaining the same interpretation for other categories (eg EAD after completion of Education). This just opens up a lot of loopholes.

ON top of all this we have to take into consideration the huge inherent inertia of the USCIS to change. As already pointed out the only recourse available would be to change the law of the land, on which path we are already traversing.

The online case status reflects the notice dates and not the actual received dates....These are the dates the cases were entered into USCIS's systems...

I believe it's not the notice date. My notice date is one day after the date from their website. Most likely it's that date when they entered the case into the system.

ashkam,

You are missing it again. What is a driver license for ? Drivers license is a drivers license. It is a verification whether one has the driving skills and knowledge to drive safely on the road.

What has it got to do with job or immigration status ?

Well, for one, a driver's license is the most commonly accepted proof of identity. It's not just about driving skills. The procedures for it's issuance affect the security of the country. Sorry, I think it is you who are missing the point.

Sorry partner, I was just sharing info.
Did not mean to imply you were wrong in any way. :-)

got it, no worries.

done!

No way CIR or any form of amnesty for illegal will happen in the next few year.
Immigration is one thing where majority of americans are united in controlling illegal population.

It can pass Senate but House it will never pass.
Moment CIR comes up, the right wing will arouse the masses. House members focus on more
local issues and in many districts people dont want illegal amnesty or CIR. They want a crackdown.

Democratic members in the House will never pass CIR against a Republican opposition otherwise they will pay a heavy price in the election.

In fact democratic party was able to get the house by selecting conservation candidates in the
conservative districts. Thats was the Howard dean/Rahm emanuel strategy. Select candiates who can win rather than candidates who are steadfast with core democratic party principles.
Thus you have democratic party members like Jim Webb who are adrent supporters of the NRA
(pro guns) in a state like Virginia.

If this is true, how come CIR is one of the main agendas of democratic party. Also remember hispanic votes were a deciding factor in the last election. GOP acknowledges that. Moreover voters demographics has changed since last election. Electorate is comprised of higher percentage of forward thinking younger generation.

IMO anti-immigrant racist voter percentage will be on decline in coming years. So democrats/gop is better off catering to the likes of this younger generation.

As EB3 India passed April 2001, where huge number of 245i cases are filed, is it mean they processed all those cases. Can we expect big movment in coming months::confused:

Any Idea's Please

As our members get greencards, we are happy for them and wish them good luck for future. Please continue to support Immigrationvoice and visit this site to help others waiting in line. If there are sufficient greencard holder members, we can even take up issues confronting greencard applicants in future.

This thread is to start a discussion and hear experiences from members who have received their greencard. Please write �

- How has greencard changed your life after receiving it?
No big change in my life. Just continuing to live my life as I have been doing all the time. I had never restricted myself due to not having green card in my hand.

- What did you do on the day you received it?
Called my wife first after seeing the emails to share the news. Then immediately called the near and dear ones in India to share the news.

- How did the long wait upset your life?
It did not impact my life as such. Since the time I entered US, I have been having a good job that pays well (I work for a top financial company). Only impact was that I could not travel to India freely due to the H1B stamping requirement. Every time I travelled to India, I had to spend additional time here in US to collect documents and the required things for visa stamping and hand to spend invaluable time in India to go through the visa stamping process.


- How did immigrationvoice help you during this long wait?
The internet site was very helpful as there were lot of people sharing information and ideas.


- Would you like to continue your support to immigration voice and help others waiting?
Yes

- Any advice for everyone?



Once anyone received his greencard, please update the IV tracker too. We like to see how many members in IV are greencard holders and what is the current trend of approvals in our membership

Voted just now--Aye

Voted Yes!

It is evident to anyone following this thread who hijacked it. I was only responding to the OP when you came here with your crappy comments about how people should not enforce personal morals on drug traffickers.

Why don't you explain to everyone how is telling the OP that we do not condone taking or selling drugs something of a personal opinion?

If your next post does not address the issue, then we all know who the real immature person is. Unless you have an answer, I will consider this case closed.

I am not answerable to an anonymous "internet toughie" who picks up fights on forums. it's evident that your understanding of the tonality in a professional response vis a vis a personal one is impaired albeit imponderable.

I shall not waste my time "coaching" the same.

[B]"then we all know who the real immature person is"

After your fiasco with Kumar, doesn't this whole forum apart from a few thousand scandalized visitors know who really enthrones "immaturity" here?

With this i end my diatribe with you mr internet toughie aka sledgehammer. lol

I have already replied to him/her.

BTW, Are you his/her agent? Your post indicates what kind of person you are.

Good Luck.


______________________________
Green Card holder since May 2002

No I am not his agent. We were expecting this information from some credible source. I did not know your wife runs and maintains a web site when she get time off from her AmWay/QuickStar business. I am referring to ---- http://www.assureconsulting.com/faqs/h1b_transfer.shtml
Thanks but in future please lead us to govt/fed web sites. Now from here onwards, I am not going to reply to your notes, you simply do not deserve it!

Maybe he can come under asylum or refugee status; after all he also probably has two mother-in-laws there and that should qualify. One is bad enough, but TWO?

Its hard to maintain such a situation (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0205968/), he will have to make a call and decide on a winner (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0207341/).

:D:D:D

All;

The problem here is not just the TB skin test, but the blood test that tests for HIV and the other STD. It is mandatory for the Civil surgeon to draw blood and check for these. My civil surgeon told me he will not accept these 2 tests from any other doctor. I got the TB skin test done at a local clinic before the medical appointment and he accepted that.

Also, XRAY's are NOT madatory. Only if you have a positive reaction to the skin test then you are required to do the XRAY to rule out TB.

About, sending the medical reports later, all discusssions here point to the fact that there is no concensus. It would be every attorneys call if they want to submit without the medicals. But, remember USCIS document clearly states that you are REQUIRED to submit medicals. No where does it mention that you can send it later on. So, in the event that you do not submit your Medicals and they reject your I-485, you will really have NO legal basis to appeal other than make a plea.

I also agree with the person who warned you about the flights getting delayed. You are cutting it too close! Your wife needs to come back earlier. If this is an emergency, then she should come back, get medicals done, submit I-485 and then go back. All this can be achieved in about 4-5 days. Ask for an EMERGENCY appointment at the consulate. PLEAD your case. Dont walk away from the consulate till they give you an EMERGENCY Appointment

I strongly suggest that she shoudl catch the next flight back and return. You are not going to get this "chance" anytime soon again.
What will be the basis for emergency appointment ? I was strictly warned not to mention AOS as the basis for the request as it can seriously harm.

Posting this since almost every thread has the question about the cut-off date after which all LCs or I-140s will be invalidated.

http://www.ilw.com/articles/2007,0530-endelman.shtm

Excerpt from "http://www.ilw.com/articles/2007,0530-endelman.shtm" posted earlier, the cutoff date is May 15, 2007; NOT May 21 2007. (Thanks to "cnag" for finding this link).

Wait, there is more! The end of employer-sponsored immigration and the inauguration of the points system do not take place at the same time. No kidding, there are two different dates when the old is no good and the new becomes available. If you can contain your excitement and read the finer points of Section 502(d)(1) of S. 1348, you will discover that the point system does not take effect until the first day of the fiscal year following enactment, unless (and there always is one) this is less than 270 days. What then? Not to fear. In that case, the point system does not "go live" until the first day of the FOLLOWING fiscal year. Keep reading! The point system in clause (1) is made expressly subject to clause (2) which has few surprises in store. It is not for the uninitiated or the faint of heart. These tender souls should protect their blood pressure and keep on reading. Pursuant to Section 502(d)(2), only those employment-based immigrant petitions on Form I-140 filed before the introduction of S. 1348 on May 15th will remain valid and serve as the basis for an immigrant visa after enactment. So what, you say? Well, suppose that President Bush signs the bill on September 10th 2007. That is the date of enactment. Now, the points system waits until October 1, 2008, the first day of the second fiscal year following enactment. From September 10, 2007 until October 1, 2008, over one year, we will have no employment-based green cards! You heard me right friend, no employer sponsorship based on anything after May 15th 2007 and no points system. This is Pat Buchanan's dream come true- an entire fiscal year without any green cards being issued on the basis of employment!

Thanks,
Jayant
