The information that is provided in this post is relevant as of Friday May 15, 2009. This is coming from our local AILA chapter Chair.
As many of our readers know, at the conclusion of the Marriage based adjustment of status interview, the immigration officer, upon approval, used to stamp the immigrant's passport with the I-551 (Green Card) stamp. This used to be an immediate proof that the case was approved and the applicant could work and travel using this stamp. As the actual production of the Green Cards became so fast, the practice of stamping applicants' passports stopped as well in most states across the nation.
It seems that things are changing, hence the recent notice from USCIS. According to the notice we received, the Green Card Facility in KY is undergoing renovation. USCIS' card production capability will be reduced over the next several months. They will expand the use of ADIT Temporary Green Card stamps as temporary evidence of LPR status.
The Stamps will be valid for 12 months (previously only 30 days validity was given). Work permits and travel documents (advance paroles) will be collected at the interview from the clients. The stamp will be the only proof of work and travel authorization in such cases. It looks like this policy will continue for the next 6-12 months. This is a nationwide policy and is not taking place only in San Diego.
We will keep you posted with more information as it becomes available.

Remember to point it out at FP, and they will also ask you to phone USCIS and correct it. You could phone USCIS first, and then you might find that FP has it already corrected in the computer.
Once USCIS update it they will send you a letter to say that they made a change to the file, this is just FYI.
My wife's DoB had a typo. It was spotted at FP office.
Of course I am assuming some obvious typo, not a FP notice for Jim Smith and your name is Ramkrishnan Singh. :-)
or Ramakrishnan Bhatti. LOL.. that example was hilarious. (reddy, murthy, prasad) would have been closer.

I am on H1 and my husband on H4.
My 140 is pending.
We recently received EAD for both of us. If my husband applies for SSN but do NOT use EAD or SSN for work . Will he still remain on H4?
I want him to be on h4 status till I get 140 approved.
Thank you.

Hi IV Attorneys,
My wife's I-797A got lost in transit mail. I was wondering is there a way to order a replacement I-797A and how long would it take to get one. I need to take it to the SSN office as they require original documents to issue a SSN card. Your help is much appreciated!
Thanks.

I was also scared to call and thinking too much .... how i will prove this and that.
Call nearest DOL office from a public phone and with a fake identity...........
tell them your friend is in trouble and explain the situation to them....they will guide you
http://www.dol.gov/esa/whd/america2.htm
I have talked to them and they need only the name of Company and the name of victim .....rest they will do themselves.
I understand you might not have all the documents/proofs............dont worry.........DOL knows it is a common phenomenon with such consulting company.
Try it and let us know.
Good Luck

Hi all:
I entered the country on Advance Parole and so now I am on EAD status because of that.
I am on my 8th year of extension. My H1B was valid till 2009 but now it is not because of my EAD. Its been more than a year since I applied for 485 and My I-140 has been approved.
Q.1 Can I join another employer based on a new H1B so as to reinstate my H1B status? I plan to file for AC21 if I change employers.
Q.2 Can I apply for a new H1B with my CURRENT employer based on my current job?
I would really appreciate your input.
Thanks in advance.

No that is wrong assumption. H1B can be extended only based on the beneficiary's self I-140 not spouse's
Consult his/your attorney and renew H1B. At least start GC process to be eligible for H1 extension after 6 years

See this from FAQ1 released by USCIS itself
Q6: What happens if an application is filed at the wrong Service Center?
A6. Forms I-485 should be filed at either the Texas or Nebraska Service Centers. However, through August 17, 2007 only, employment-based adjustment applications filed at the California and Vermont Service Centers will not be rejected and will be relocated to the appropriate Service Center. Filing at the wrong location could result in processing delays.

I think you'll only lose 1-2 weeks as far as your RD is concered..

I left the US for good after spending around 5 years on H1-B sometime last year and have only made entries on tourist visa. Can I apply for a new 6 year H1-B quota since leaving the H1-B status last year or will I have to spend 1 year outside since the last tourist visa entry ?

Recently my I-140 petition for EB2 was denied on educational grounds . The employer opened an MTR/appeal.
Is it possible to re-file the I-140 petition in EB3 using the same labor certification, while the first I-140 is pending appeal at AAO.

My parents are going for visa interview in kolkata. I heard they dont allow mobile phone inside the consulate. Is there any storage spot to leave them ?

You will say 'YES' for yourself and 'NO' for your dependents. Immigration petition is nothing but I-140, if any of your family members have filed I-140 then answer would be 'YES'
