My Indian passport is going to expire very soon and my visa has also expired.
I have applied for extension for 3 years.
Will I face any problems in getting new passport from Indian Embassy?
Has anybody done that before?
I am sorry if this is not right place to write about it...
thanks

Folks :
My paper EAD application has been rejected twice by USCIS. Here is the thread that discusses that :
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum70-self-filing-documents-forms-directions-mailing/1598364-ead-renewal-rejected-twice-need-advice.html
I have eFiled this time. So we'll wait and see.
I am now planning to request expedited processing of my application. For an expedited processing to be approved, it needs to satisfy atleast one of the following criteria according to USCIS...
1) Severe financial loss to company or individual
2) Extreme emergent situation
3) Humanitarian situation
4) Nonprofit status of requesting organization in furtherance of the cultural and social interests of the United States
5) Department of Defense or National Interest Situation (Note: Request must come from official United States Government entity and state that delay will be detrimental to our Government)
6) USCIS error
7) Compelling interest of USCIS
I feel I am fall under the point 1) and point 6). The IO that I talked to over the phone told me to write to USCIS with appropriate documentation.
At this time, I would like to learn from you guys if anyone of you have applied for expedited processing, what criteria did you apply under and what was your experience with it.
Further, I would appreciate if you guys comment on the reason that I plan to apply under...Do guys think it will work?
Thanks!

Lost I20.
Went to school from 96 to 2000.
WOrking on H-1 since then.
Numerous trips outside. Last one in 2005 on an H-1 visa.
What do I do now?
You can call the school's "Office of International Studies"(or equivalent) and ask for a copy.

My PERM was filed and I got the following email from my lawyers
" Labor Certification by ABC ABC, Inc. on your behalf has been submitted via the Department of Labor�s (DOL) Permanent Online System as of the above date (April 1) . The application will be adjudicated by a National PERM Processing Center. As the DOL does not currently have a processing schedule for PERM applications, we are unable to predict how long processing will take. In the past, PERM applications have been adjudicated anywhere from a few weeks to several months. Unfortunately, there is currently no way for beneficiaries to check the status of the application. We will contact you as soon as we hear anything specific regarding your case. "
1. Is there any place where you can check the status ? Since I do not have any reference number, and from the text of the email, I doubt that.
2. I checked some forums and found that the average processing time is 60 days. Which processing center should I be looking for ? (I work at Oracle in SFO)

According to KPBS, A bill to strengthen the U.S.-Mexico border could be a mixed blessing for San Diego. That's because paying for more for border security will require a hike in H1B visas.
The H-1B is a non-immigrant visa in the United States under the Immigration and Nationality Act, section 101(a)(15)(H). It allows U.S. employers to temporarily employ foreign workers in specialty occupations. If a foreign worker in H-1B status quits or is dismissed from the sponsoring employer, the worker can apply for a change of status to another non-immigrant status, find another employer (subject to application for adjustment of status and/or change of visa), or must leave the US.
The regulations define a �specialty occupation� as requiring theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge in a field of human endeavor including, but not limited to, architecture, engineering, mathematics, physical sciences, social sciences, biotechnology, medicine and health, education, law, accounting, business specialties, theology, and the arts, and requiring the attainment of a bachelor�s degree or its equivalent as a minimum (with the exception of fashion models, who must be "of distinguished merit and ability".) Likewise, the foreign worker must possess at least a bachelor�s degree or its equivalent and state licensure, if required to practice in that field.
Duane Roth, CEO of the biotech support group Connect, said that could make it more difficult for San Diego businesses to hire qualified workers. He said higher costs for H1B visas may also encourage more companies to outsource.
"A company may consider whether it's better to open a facility in a foreign country and hire the workers that are already there, versus the ability to bring some here to fill the opening jobs," said Roth.
He said the U.S. education system is not producing enough scientists and engineers to staff high-tech companies in San Diego.
I feel that another H1B fee hike will be a death blow to the possibility of retaining talented workers in the US and for small US companies to expand business.

Can any lawyer confirm this, please? Thanks so much!!!
It is unlikely that your husband will have a problem. As another poster said, he just needs to show that he is maintaining H-1B status. A very difficult CIS officer could take the view that he is not maintaining status if he is not being paid the prevailing wage. However, that is very unlikely. Underpaying an employee is an employer violation, not an employee violation.

I have used TataAIG insurance from India on 4-5 occasions for my in laws and my parents and I found it to be good. On one occasion we also got around $4000 reimbursed from them (in Indian Rupees) for the hospital expenses incurred for my in laws. Here is my take on the Visitor Insurance.
You have two options -
1> Get visitor medical insurance from USA (various company names are at www.samachar.com).
Advantages - Dont have to pay money upfront for hospital charges, but its kinda expensive then insurance from India.
2> Get visitor medical insurance from India
Advantages - this can cover insurance when in-flight also and for luggage also.
Disadvantages - Might have to pay money upfront for hospital expenses, and get reimbursed back in India.
Please note that this can be different from vendor to vendor. Also any existing ailments are not covered.

Thanks for the reply,
Can i call USCIS or it should only be attorney or some authorized persons?
I agree, Online status is unreliable, but the recent update about undeliverable looks quite straight forward.

I applied for I-140 in July 2007 using a substitute labor EB2 (from a different company) with a priority date of Nov 2005 and it got approved in May 2008.
During the same July fiasco, my employer at that time applied for I-485 with a priority date of August 2006.
I didn't apply for priority date porting after the substitute labor I-140 got approved because I didn't have the approval notice.
I read somewhere that even though I didn't apply for porting of the date, USCIS will consider the earlier date. How far is this true? How can I find out my correct priority date?
Thank you
Note: I already posted this in 'August Bulletin Out - EB2 India 01MAR06' but discussion there is totally different. So, posted a new thread.

I am an Indian citizen. I have an approved I-140 under National Interest Waiver with a PD of Aug 31, 2007. I am now a permanently employed scientist at a National Lab. I think I am now eligible for application under EB-1 Outstanding researcher category. Is it possible to apply for I-485 without another I-140? It will take quite some time to secure all the recommendation letters to apply for EB-1 (OR). I am wondering if I can bypass the whole process of I-140 and directly apply for adjustment of status based on my approved I-140 saving time and effort.
Thanks in advance for any answer.

My wife had the same situation - was going to be out of town on the scheduled day. She went to the Dallas office on a Wednesday or Thursday and explained the situation to them. They said they were busy that day and said she had upto 89 (?) days to do it. They said she could walk in on any Saturday within that time frame. They also said that there was no need to reschedule. Sure enough, she went in on a Saturday 2 or 3 weeks after the scheduled date and they took her fingerprints.
