Immigration Law from Houston Immigration Lawyer - Annie Banerjee Has Just Posted the Following:
The DOL introduced a new Prevailing Wage system which will centralize everything. Previously each State's Workforce Agency gave those Prevailing Wage. Obviously there were discrepancies in how each SWA operated causing problems with DOL filings.
However, DOL introduced this new system of centralized Prevailing Wage determination with no computerized system of filing. We have to mail in our request to the DOL. Then the DOL will take forever to come up with a Prevailing Wage. The DOL has advised employers to file the Prevailing Wage 60 days prior to advertising for a PERM, since the ads expire in 6 months. This is strange because the DOL went computerized much earlier than the CIS did. Why could they not have a faster computerized process BEFORE centralizing the whole process? Was this then intentional?
This will slow down businesses, and filing of immigration. Similarly in July of 2009 the DOL significantly slowed down the LCA filings for H-1Bs. Which makes me wonder if DOL is slowing down things as a protectionist measure which caters to socialism? Is this the death of free enterprise, and business at the speed of 21 Century? It was another Democratic President and Congress that passed the AC 21 to speed the process up about a decade ago.

Dear Attorney,
My company is willing to sponsor me and I have a few questions regarding the occupation.
I have no professional degree but I have 7 years experience as a general manager. My boss spoke to one attorney who said that I can be in EB-3 skilled worker but he (the attorney) is going to put that at least 5 years experience is required. The company that I have been working for is an export/import Asian food company (65 employees; $100 million revenue) so my boss is not going to hire someone who has only 2 years experience. The attorney also wants to put that a foreign language (Korean) is required as I will be responsible for making orders from Korea.
On the other hand I went to a different lawyer who said that if I want to be in EB-3 skilled worker the 2 years experience is enough and if there will be a foreign language requirement, most likely my ETA9089 will be denied. Also, he mentioned that a GENERAL MANAGER requires at least a bachelor's degree (as stated in SWA OES).
I would appreciate your input.
Thank you.

Hello,
I need your advice / opinion on the below scenario...
I and my wife are both employed at the same company, currently on H1.

We both got our EAD and AP. 140 approved in May 2007, 485 Filed in Aug 2007.
I have submitted I-9 to the company in order to be on EAD status.
I am planning to have my Wife resign from the current employer and work for a diff company/vendor by using EAD.
Questions: 1.Does the above scenario bring up any issues with regards to our work status or any other issues with the current employer or to the GC process?
2. Can I work on a part time project?
Please advice

these rallies are usually organized by Undocumented workers. Folks at immigrationvoice strongly believe that people should not highlight any events related to undocument workers on this site...Hence reds for you...
now suddenly I got "Red". don't know what's the bloody reason.

On June 9, 2009, U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Janet Napolitano granted deferred action for two years to widows and widowers of U.S. citizens (and their unmarried children under 18 years old) who reside in the United States, and who were married for less than two years before their spouse’s death. Deferred action is a short-term act of prosecutorial discretion that suspends removal proceedings against an individual or group of individuals for a specific timeframe. The action is temporary and it will not resolve an individual’s underlying immigration status.
In addition to the deferred action, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will suspend all adjudications of visa petitions and adjustment applications filed by widow(er)s where the only reason for reassessment of immigration status was the death of a U.S. citizen spouse before the second anniversary of the marriage. Further, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) will now defer initiating or continuing removal proceedings, or executing final orders of removal against qualified widow(er)s and their eligible children.
Secretary Napolitano states that the deferred action is a “common-sense and practical” solution that will grant “these individuals and their children an opportunity to stay in the country that has become their home while their legal status is resolved.”

My attorney has submitted the documents for I140/485 concurrent filing. UPS has messed up and they lost my documents.It contains original documents for applying I140.
I am wondering if there is any chance that I can send photocopy of documents to USCIS explaining them the situation as I do not want to miss the chance of deadline Aug 17th. Could anyone please suggest me? Did anyone experience the same situation before.
Thanks.

Minolta is about to enter the fray with a new DSLR. Get the story here (http://www.dphoto.us/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=171&mode=thread&order=0&thold=0).
Congrats all Minolta users, I know you've been waiting for this for a long time!
I hope this is a winner, I really liked Minolta cause they ALWAYs gave the most camera at the best price. And their film cameras always screamed of class!
Lets hope this camera can live up to my expectations, I just don't know how that image stabilization will work.

Today my lawyer sent me my receipt numbers for 485, EAD and AP. when I enter my AP receipt number to check online status I see the following...
Application Type: OS155A, IMMIGRANT VISA AND ALIEN REGISTRATION
Current Status: Card production ordered.
On August 30, 2007, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you. If we need something from you we will contact you. If you move before you receive the card, call customer service. You can also receive automatic e-mail updates as we process your case. Just follow the link below to register.
Anyone know what this means... It doesn't say I-131 in application type..
Second disturbing thing I noticed when I entered my 485 number...
Application Type: I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
Current Status: Fingerprint fee rejected and notice mailed; case in suspense.
On August 23, 2007, we rejected your fingerprint fee and mailed you instructions for how to submit the necessary payment. This case is now in suspense. Please submit your payment with our notice as soon as possible after you receive our notice so we may resume processing of this case.
My lawyer says the checks have been cashed and we have proof of this.. She says it can be a typo..
Most weird part is for my EAD it says card has been ordered.. but I haven't even done finger prints and my 485 is in suspense..
Anyone any idea whats happening.. should I be worried about OS155A and 485 things..

Until now, new inmates booked into the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department had their fingerprints checked only for criminal history information. But now, each new inmate booked into one of the three largest jails in the County will now also have his or her fingerprints checked by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) biometric system for any immigration record.
The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department is the first law enforcement organization in California to partner with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in their Secure Communities program. This comprehensive program is intended to streamline the process by which ICE determines if the screened inmate is a criminal alien, subject to automatic removal at the completion of his or her incarceration. Highest priority is given to inmate aliens who have been convicted of crimes such as rape, robbery, murder, kidnapping, and major drug offenses.
By implementing programs like Secure Communities in prison facilities and law enforcement organizations, ICE identified more than 221,000 potentially removable aliens incarcerated nationwide in fiscal year 2008. This fiscal year, the agency anticipates spending more than one billion to continue these programs. ICE currently partners with 50 counties and law enforcement agencies across the nation through the Secure Communities program and looks to expand the program to all law enforcement agencies throughout the United States.
More information about ICE's Secure Communities effort is available at www.ice.gov. Additional information about the San Diego County Sheriff’s partnership with ICE may be found at:

I suggest to go with extension. U can file for extension 6 months before the expiry of H1. so Apply in next month (if applying in regular) or in oct or nov (if applying in premium). Passport expiry may not be an issue for extension.
In my case, i have applied for extension(in regular process) 5 months before existing H1 expiry, where as my passport is just valid for 2 months after existing H1 expiry date. Didn't face any issues in getting approval.
May be u need to check with Attorney for one scenario where due to RFE if the extension is pending beyond 5 or 6 months..
Based on my experience I'm suggesting this.. better check attorney or experts also.

Hi,
I am in the US now. Can I change to F1 visa in August and get the new F1 stamping or the approved transfer as you said, when I visit my home country later some ?
thanks again.
My understanding is that F1 visa status is maintained by I-20 and corresponding I-94 (which would usually say D/S and therefore would be valid as long as your I-20 and student-in-good-standing status are valid), for which you need to go outside US and reenter.
