Guys and gals,
My AP application entered in the system on Sep 13th at NSC - what is the likely approval time these days for AP.
I have vacation plans but i've very slim H-time left and that too not stamped (its a extension) so i have to have the AP at hand before leaving. I can't book tickets because i dont know if AP wil at all come before my Journey date.
Any advise or experience sharing would be a big help. Is there any way i can rush/expedite my AP application from NSC ?
Thank you so much,
Diptam
Check my signature. The AP approval time is approx 3 months to my best knowledge

Can we do something about this.
Maybe we can go to a federal court saying it is discriminatory and get a ruling to that effect. This would stop "any" state from coming up with such legislation.
Many states have such rules. We need to deal with at a national/federal level.
We have too many items to worry about. DL should not be one of those.
In this country one cannot work without a driver's license. It is a matter of human rights. When USCIS gives us work authorization that has only 4 months remaining on it, a state ( Texas ) cannot say that I am not eligible to drive in this 4 months.
There is some disconnect here.
Isn't it something similar that happened when Gandhiji was thrown out of a train is South Africa. Gandhi was discriminated based on his color. We are being discriminated on immigration status for our right to work.

This is correct.......once the employer revokes H1B, that is a red flag for the immigration officer. Officer may or may not ask for evidence. Be prepared to show a same or similar job offer.
Thanks.Last year my GC sponsoring company canceled my H1B once I got EAD.I didn't get any RFE.

Agree...although "Posted" date is indicated as July 16th 2009, the "As of Date" says May 31,2009. This NOT upto date info. does put all TSC June 2009 EAD renewal waiters in distress/chaos/panic mode....
EAD applicants need not be in panic. They take around 50-60 days. There is clear note that if you don't get it in time you can get something on priority basis from a local center. It is a hassle of course.
Difference betwen "As of ..." and "Posted on ..." dates suggests that someone is reviewing the data before it is posted. Govt reviews, you know, are not very quick. Bosses may be on vacation, checking, asking questioins, getting explanations, all on paper/emails between offices all over the US, etc. etc. Inside information suggests USCIS is working hard, but beurocracy has limits, and changes over the years (most to provide interim benefits to us), and very long ques are not efficiently handled by the systems developed prior to these changes. For example, systems are not designed for managing severely retrogressed PD's, or someone waiting several years for GC, etc.

Not really, broadly speaking lack of information can never be a benefit to consumer. (Read: hidden clauses in agreements). It might be that they have been doing that and we don't know. You will ONLY know if you apply for another H1B transfer or any other application say I-140/I-485 with new employer and then USCIS MIGHT tell you that your I-140 is revoked on MM/DD/YYYY and you are no longer in valid H1B status since then. That would be too late and it is not retroactive. Remember that onus is on you to maintain valid H1B status all the time during the period of H1B. Once again I am not saying what I mention above is the correct interpretation of law, but in the absence of any clarify it can be one of the implication.
well...The history is that USCIS did release the proposed regulation dealing with all these back in 2002 if I remember correctly..Then there was a comment period...They got so many comments...that after that they did not even bother to publish the regulations in the federal register...That was the last heard of it....Now the only time when the issue of these regulations can possibliy come up is when there is a leadership change in USCIS...Any our fate would depend on who is in control of USCIS at that particular instance...
But this sword would fall some day..I donot know when..I donot know if it would fall on us....or we would just steer clear....The thing is that there is a lot of resistance to changes in status quo both inside USCIS and AILA...
Well AILA would want the status quo to continue....Them lawyers are making money of us anyway.....
I am in US last 7 years...The career is stagnant..No sign of GC anywhere....I am very despondent...But then what else is new ???

You are also on the radar.
Here are some of your sample messages to other members.
IV has better things to do to help its members and this cause then tolerate members who are disrespectful to others and do not bother about this effort.
Let other IV members judge for themselves what is right and what is wrong.

I empathize with your position. I think when one door closes other windows open up. 10 years from now, you may feel that this was the best thing that happened to you - going to Canada. Your son is a USC, so he can come back anytime he wants. Best wishes in any case.
well..I have been waiting for my labor certifcation to get certfied for too long. just after Sep 11 I applied both for US GC and Canadian PR. My wife also applied for her GC. meanwhile her GC moved to regional when suddenly DOL thought it was time to regroup and there it went into BPC. In the meantime we got canadian PR some 2 years ago but we did not move thinking that we have jobs here.Then she got pregnant and lot of complications ( premature labor) and during those complications her company got acquired by another bigger firm who thought they don't need her..and result was job loss plus GC into the trash....meanwhile my labor certification even after 5 years was still sleeping in EB3 category(PD Oct, 2001) when i still have Masters( god knows why my lawyer put into that category)..Now my canadian PR was set to expire in march, 2007..so I thought i should decide fast..and i applied for jobs..and I got offer in vancouver with moving expenses paid from califronia..It has been the toughest decision because my employer is Indian here in california..and I have had good growth(10% average) but not the way I had wanted..I guess he also exploits..Indian exploiting another Indian..because they know I am not going anywhere..plus we work hard.. I asked him to match what was being offered in vancouver..and he started converting CAD into USD..well..it is not fair..So I have decided to heck with US and the Employer..and move on...at least I can come back..it is not an easy move because my son being premature child had lot of free facilities in california..hopefully he will get the same in Vancouver until he gets to 3 years ..and then it stops..
I have been in this country too long..and I guess one should settle down rather just wait for them to give GC...reading the other post about one lady whose EAD card got expired just tells me that how inconsistent this GC process can be and right until the end...
Anyway that is all for now

Pls see below for answers
My H1b is going to expire on April 17th. I had found a new job and they had applied for my H transfer on March 27th. I would like to know
1. How many days is required to get a H1b transfer receipt.
-- upto 1 or 2 weeks if it's Premium
-- Upto 2 or 4 weeks for regular. Looking at your case, your lawyer probably already has receipt Number.
2. What happens if my H1B expires before i get a receipt.
-- Nothing, you will get a receipt sometime , so long as you get a receipt that will have date of receipt as you originally sent it. If you are afraid your company didn't actually send it, then
3. Should i go on EAD or continue on H1B. My wife is a green card holder for last 3 years 6 months.
That decision has no relation to pending h1. You can choose to go to EAD anytime. Looking at your situation, you are probably better of on EAD. Your wife will eligible for citizenship in 18 months then she can apply for naturalization, I think even now you can probably apply as spousal category so really no reason for you to be on h1 ..(Not entire sure abot this.. check with family immigration lawyer)

My PD is 10/04. My I 485 was received on 7/2/07 in TSC. I am the primary applicant and my case was transfered to NSC in 8/07 while the I485 of my spouse remained with TSC. I have no LUD on my case since 11/07 but her case was transfered to NBC for standard interview. She lives in a deifferent state as she is studying and I thought that may be they want to make sure that we are married (as has been with many other cases). I was hoping that may be they will also send my case for interview as is usual for other people but having our cases in 2 different service centers has made it complicated. Will wait and see.

Nobody from IV has prevented people from other countries from speaking up. On the contrary, multinationalism is only encouraged to give a global face to this issue. But, I don't see anyone from outside India/China bolstering IV's efforts. Why don't they step up and join the core team?
Not true, I'm sure I am not the only IV member that falls outside the Indian or Chinese nationality group that has stepped up and has been contacted for help
Don't mistake sloppy media reporting for lack of incentive by anyone :)

more often then not, they will make a mistake. Then you have to pay the USCIS to fix their own mistake by filing MTR. Not to mention unnecessary stress... That being said, everybody has different risk tolerance.
With so many people changing jobs using AC21, not only IO, everyone in USCIS will be aware of it. Let's discuss something other interesting topic rather when 180days start/end.
IOs will see your I-485, use some calculator/software to find out of 180days and then say pass/fail. End of the game.

I just came back from india. Flew via Frankfrut (Lufthansa). Lufthansa was bad. Frankfrut was dirty, no customer service, service Reps are rude. Next time I will avoid Frankfrut. AND I will not pay a dime for transit visa. period.
American airlines was trying to stop me boarding the plane as the CSR was not aware that if someone has AP they would not need transit visa in Frankfrut. I had to fight and make them call Frankfrut to confirm.
Might not be pertinent but American Airlines food was horrible and tasteless. They were running out of food.

I filed mine on May 12 and sent to Phoenix Lock box and had the same issue. My checks are not cashed and am going through the same pain as you do. My lawyer suggested its not unusual to have these delays and it could take upto 4 weeks for the receipt notice to come. I am still tensed as the checks are not cashed and there is no receipt for the renewal. Please let me know how you are proceeding or find any new info
I will also share updates from my end
Thanks alot
I am in the same situation, my application was received on 5/11/2010. Checks are not chashed yet, my lawyer advised me to refile online after one week if filing fee is not an issue. She thinks the delay is unusual and if we are nearing the expiration date, just re-file online.
