The AC21 determination of whether a new job is in "the same or similar occupation" is made based on a comparison of the new job duties and those set forth on the original labor certification application. Job titles are not controlling. So, you need to have a copy of your original LC application and then compare the job description it contains to the duties of the new position.
Hope this helps,
Ann

There is no such deadline. But it would do you good to file them before July 31st or other wise it might retrogress.

Holding the Hungry Hostage (http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/07/opinion/07fri2.html) NY Editorial, December 7, 2007
It is a travesty that the fates of some 35 million Americans who need food aid are tied to the farm bill, which comes up every five years. The House passed an inadequate version last summer, and the Senate has failed to advance its own. It is time to ask why feeding the hungry must include a trough for multibillion-dollar agribusiness.
As it has pressed to keep its subsidies, about $26 billion in the current bill, agribusiness has contributed $415 million to federal political campaigns since 1990, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. The hungry don’t have much of a lobby. But those who cannot consistently put food on the table need the help promised in the bill, including more than $4 billion in improvements in the food stamp program and for emergency assistance. If the aid remains in the farm bill, and if it remains in a logjam, aid would continue at current, inadequate levels.
Food stamps regularly help 26 million people get something to eat. But the previous farm bill did not peg benefits to inflation, so as food prices have skyrocketed, families who were just barely getting by are now in a much worse place. Some 800,000 food stamp recipients — disproportionately elderly or disabled — are being told to make due on a minimum benefit of $10 per month. That amount has remained unchanged in 30 years.
As The Times recently reported, food banks and soup kitchens across the nation are being depleted by demand so overwhelming that the needy are being turned away, or given help so minimal, it is hardly worth the energy expended to get it.
Washington needs to do better. The Senate could start by rallying around the sensible legislation sponsored by Senators Frank Lautenberg, Democrat of New Jersey, and Richard Lugar, Republican of Indiana. It would replace crop supports with an insurance program to cover actual losses, and put the savings, potentially billions of dollars, to better use, including for food aid.
Or the Congress could make a bold statement and begin to restructure funding. It could get money to food banks faster if it came out of any bill but the farm bill.
The Bush administration has correctly opposed the excesses of the farm subsidies program, but it could do more. It could finance additional and immediate food assistance by dipping deeper into money culled from customs receipts to support farm and nutrition programs.
Since their beginnings, hunger relief and nutrition programs have been inextricably tied to helping farmers. That may have made sense once. But as recent maneuvers on the farm bill have shown, it no longer works.
Republicans — by far the biggest beneficiaries of agribusiness largess — are using the advantage of being a bare minority to try to attach a flurry of amendments on immigration, taxes and any other issue but the desperate one at hand. Farm state senators look the other way so a bill, warts and all, can get done.
They need to put America’s hungry first.

Hi:
My full 6 years of H-1B expires in Jan 2010. My labor will be filed in Jan 2009. I would like to go back to school full time on F-1 in Fall 09. At that time, I would still have 5 months of H-1B time remaining plus a priority date. After I graduate, find a job on a new OPT, would it be enough time to start a new GC processing, without having to go back home for a year?
Thanks so much
Debbie

My friend Dan Kowalski linked today to an article in the Detroit Free Press about Naji Chammout, a Lebanese native who has been waiting on his citizenship application to be approved for ten years years. That might surprise people when they learn that Chammout volunteered for the US Army in 2004 when he was a green card holder and served as a translator to top American military commanders in Iraq. He sold his Louisiana gas station for the chance to serve his adopted country and went to some of the most dangerous places in the war zone. US Army Brigadier...

Hardly a surprise. But just as the tea parties of last summer have not stopped health care reform favored by the majority of Americans, these protests are not going to stop the momentum in favor of immigration reform.

Thanks,

Hi: Need some inputs from the excperts in this group on using the priority dates from a different I140 filing.
Have the following 2 cases filed for the same person.
PD - Nov 2004 - EB3 - Labor Approved - I140 Filed
PD - Oct/Nov 2005 - EB2 - Labor Approved - I140 Approved
If we file I485 based on the I140 approved for EB2 case [which has a later PD], can we still send an update to USCIS later regarding Nov 2005 PD and use that PD once the I140 from the EB3 filing is approved? What's the best way to use the highest EB category and oldest PD in this case?
Thanks,
Sirisha

I am looking for work. Not too concerned with how much money I make, but would like some money for jobs. I can program some mildly advanced AS, and I can draw some Flash vector art, as well as pixel art. I have Macromedia Freehand, so if you need pictures traced for use in Flash, I can do it, save it as a .eps and email it to you. If anyone has any work for me, please post or PM me.

Hi:
My In-laws applied for visitor visa on 26th May at Delhi US Embassy. One of them got the passport from VFS after getting VISA for 10 years but other one is still waiting. I am in US on H1B visa with my family.
We called VFS and they said they did not get the passport back from US Embassy.
One of my in-law works for Indian government as scientific assistant with food dept.
It seems right now there is no way we can track what processing is going on?
Is there any such cases known in the past and what could be the reason for the delay in the passport arrival from US Embassy? Do they perform additional verifications and what time it takes usually?
Any clues/suggestions?
Thanks

Hi,
Could one of the lawyers/expert please provide their opinion on my situation?
In 2004, my H1B extension was denied and later on approved in Nunc Pro Tunc. The nunc pro tunc process took a total of 64 days and when approved my I-94 was NOT back dated. Hence, I do not have I-94 for 64 days. Later on in July 2007, I filed for my I485.
Since my approval, I have not traveled outside the country and I am currently on EAD based on my pending 485.
The question I have, it's bothering me a lot, Will the gap in I94 for 64 days cause any problems in my I485 approval?
Please advise.
