sorry about that, i was planning to file in 2007, but didn't complete the process, and forgot to update my profile. it is updated now. thanks for pointing it out.
Thanks. I will try to answer here. The attorneys on forum maybe able to help you further and give a more reliable answer as they know the law.
From what I know NIW means you are asking for a Labor process waiver. Thus you can apply I140 directly without labor certification. However after the PERM process introduction getting Labor certificate is not that time consuming as it was earlier. ( I know these days it has become more time consuming ) Nevertheless you can still save your labor process time by applying for NIW. Note that collecting the proof and preparing the application can also be time consuming. In order to file an NIW petition, the you must be able to demonstrate that you are seeking work in an area of substantial intrinsic merit to the US, that the benefit from your proposed activity will be national in scope, and that such national interest would be adversely affected if a Labor Certification were required for your application.
Note that there is a difference in exceptional ability and extraordinary ability that is a requirement for EB1. Exceptional ability means your degree, skills and achievements are above than what is normally found in your peers. Extraordinary has a far higher standards that you need to meet. You can file as an advanced degree holder but if you are requesting waiver of Labor certification you need to prove the 3 criteria stated above. They can be proved by your various publications, awards, letters from experts, patents etc.

copy of current employment letter and future job offer...Does this has to be with same company...OR...
Can Current letter be from new Co.(u switced to using AC21) and Future Employment offer leeter has to be from teh Orig Spnsoring Employer???
My I140 sponsor is not my current employer. That's why I had to furnish both current employment letter and future employment offer letter. I have not changed employer as yet though.
If you invoked AC21, I believe you are right, you would have to furnish employment letter from your current employer and offer letter from the orig sponsoring petitioner.

I think this would be an easy and effective ammendment request. The USCIS considers BS + 5years equivalent to Masters(advanced degree).
As per Spectors/Frists bills, the Advanced Degree holders with 3 years exp in related field will have no numerical limts. First of all, can we interpret advanced degree as (BS + 5 years) ?
If not, is it possible to request these senotors to add that? It would be easy to add compared to requesting them of removing the country quota.
I belive most of the EB3 candidates have 5 years of experience. tHE REST OF THEM MAY BE ATLEAST 3 + YEARS EXPERIENCE WHICH THEY MAY THEN NEED TO WAIT ONLY 2 OR 3 YEARS TO REACH THAT 5 YR MARK).
The advanced degree is already interpreted by DOL as BS + 5 years.
Its interpreted by USCIS as BS + 2 years.
I request the IV to clarify this and request Spector/Frists to add this. There may be some reason for them removing that section 5. But adding a BS + 5yr interpretation to advanced degree wouldn't be an issue for them.

Hello Friends,
I filed for AOS on 07/2007, stopped using my current H1-B on 07/2008 (valid thru 07/2009). I am EB3-India PD 03/2005.
My question is if I can apply for a new H1-B thru a new company in the US now, instead of a transfer? I have a valid reason for doing that. Do let me know.
Thank you.
yes you can. Since your PD indicates your LC is >365 days old.
new H1 is same as transfer, there is no real difference in application etc. I assume you are moving from AOS-pending/EAD to an H1.

forgot.. another nice feature of Painter 6.0 at least and I assume of 7.0. It will use any Photoshop plugins. Likewise it will import and export to Photoshop's psd format. I really believe that the programs are both good and are fated to be used together.
for instance.. the magic wand tool in painter does not even come close to the one in Photoshop.

Hi Gurus,
My labor was approved in July'07 and I-140/485 were applied under EB2 category in Aug'07.
My qualification : Master of Engineering in Civil Engineering and B.Tech in Civil Engineering.
I got the below RFE from CIS :
The submitted ETA 9089 states the preferred position of Computer systems analyst requires a Masters degree in Engineering or related field.
Please submit a new educational evaluation based solely on the beneficiary's education when compared to a degree related to the computer indstry.
An acceptable evaluation must:
1) Consider formal education only, not practical training experience
2) did the applicant complete the U.S equivalant of high school before entering college
3) Provide detailed explanation of material evaluated
4) briefly state the qualifications and experience of the evaluator providing the opinion
The education evaluation I have submitted with I-140 includes my work experience. Please suggest me your ideas/experiences in getting the best education evaluation for my I-140 approval.
Thanks,
Sekhar

Dear All,
First of all, the idea of this note is to present some facts and thoughts, not to take sides. I am stuck in the GC line for a very long time and I have nothing to gain.
1. The present GC line is clogged due to the fact that between 2001 - 2003 (or 2004, I do not remember) the H1B quota was increased from 65000 to 130000 and even to 215000 at one point. Most of the skilled folks came from India but there was no proportional increase in GC quota for India
2. In other words, the US government prefers people to come and work at reduced wages and go back to their native countries. Every year wave after wave of new comers can keep coming, to keep costs low and profitability high, but they will not be encouraged to settle here. Like it or not, Capitalism is all about making money, everything else is secondary!
3. Many Indian companies stopped processing H1Bs after they realized that despite draconian bonds and vieled threats, the Indian techies on H1Bs switched jobs and started filing for GCs
4. Currently there is no limit on L1 visas. I am not sure how many actually come with L1 visas, but wherever I have been I have noticed that 80% of the project colleagues hold L1 visas. This implies that this no. could probably run to several thousands. Technically, H1B has been the eyesore to many people who comment about foreign workers though people coming on L1 far outweigh employees on H1. Is this because H1s have the option to file for GC (except ofcourse L1A)?
5. Under the circumstances, it is not clear how increasing H1Bs will help when there is a continuous inflow of L1 skilled workers over and above the 65000 H1 quota. Further, most of the H1 employees file for their GCs and join the eternal line and the never ending wait. So, in reality (like me) they get stuck with their employers and due to various family commitments, such as grown up children going to high school / college, are forced to pull on and sacrifice their entire active work life, under the threat of job insecurity!
6. The right and scientific approach would be to take a clear statistical account of all the skilled manpower available (US Citizens, GCs, EAD holders, EB2 / EB3 friends in the endless GC line) and try to map this data with the available jobs and the projected market situation over the next 5 years. Based on the scientific, quantitative analysis the government should decide on bringing in additional workforce. That would be logical and mathematical. There is no point flooding the market and creating social tension.
7. Instead of further complicating the quagmire of GC, the government should consider granting permanent residency to legal immigrants who have put in 10 continuous years of stay, without any criminal record
8. It is only in the USA that the system of giving GCs is NOT time bound. In every other western nation, every milestone has a definite pre-defined time period. I do not mind if the US says, "Stay for 20 years to get a GC!" Well , then it becomes a personal choice for one to take it or leave it. Sadly, we do not have this option!
Let us hope that something will work out before the end of the current term (2012)
Best wishes!

YOU: If thats a valid visa until 2009 you can travel without AP. Else, you can travel but will need H1 stamped.
YOUR WIFE: If she needs H4 stamped, she can get that done and re-enter.
If your travels are not urgent you could wait for AP and save couple hundred bucks!
But dont you need to wait for AP approval to travel if you are in AdjustmentOfStatus Phase?
