I booked for my parents and deal was 700 USD for return from India to JFk + 1 free reschedule and second one for 30 USD ...
Curious to know, how do people get such a nice deal ? If you don't mind, can you please share the secret, was this deal online ? Which site ? Usually when you get such a deal ? Thanks.

I believe that you need the actual diploma (you send a photocopy of it to USCIS) for getting counted in the M.S. quota. Most schools give the diploma once you have finished all requirements.
How come they cannot consider my EAD, Official transcripts, Graduate status letter?
Regarding Status letter, I have seen students applying like this and getting query later. What do you say about the students graduating in May (who files like me with OPT card and status letter) and applying for H1 in April?

Totally support this. However as someone pointed above, please keep message short, cordial, respectfull, positive and patriotic ( towards US).
I differ on describing, how much we make, instead how and what we contribute to nation. My sugestions, describe briefly if you are in;
Medical Profession: Highlight how your service in under-previliaged area is uplifting life of patients and neighborhood.
IT: How your work and company is making the nation more competent and advanced
Automotove: How your work will realize green car revolution and create factory jobs
Infrastrucutre/ Others: Same as above
Aerospace/DEfense: How you are supporting our troops protect nation.
Any other industry I missed, please fill in for yourself. Again be positive, cordial and no-demands.

I have not done that. I do have EAd and AP so dont know if i will do it. But prior to this when i got promoted earlier i have not applied for an admendment.
ok ...
I guess if you use EAD and not inform USCIS about the promotion and reply to AC21 RFE (if at it comes asking for employment letter and job duties), you should be fine replying it.
However, if you use H1B, then your AC21 RFE comes and you submit a profile that is different than that of H1B, then USCIS can question that discrepancy.
I am not sure they will do that ... but just a suggestion .. I might be wrong ..

Hi Meridian,
let me know how to give you green I can do that for you.
I appreciate it.
However its not the red/green dot count thats bothering me, its this needless 'sniping' using this dots system has started becoming too much on IV now. There is a reason why while giving a red dot it asks you to give a reason. Getting a red dot without a reason is like someone in the street pushing you as you are going about your own merry ways. Actually its worse, atleast in the street you can push back, or ask why they pushed you, here its like getting hit by a stone as you are walking, and you turn around and see no one. that feeling is what I hate and I get when I see red dots to innocent or even helpful posts..

try POJO method to reach IO. You can find in "n" number of threads to reach IO based upon your service center. but it's based on your luck to get polite and cordial IO. Try multiple times and speak politely.
Posting this info. provided by some one in this forum long time back.
Call 1-800-375-5283
Press 1 to select English
Press 2 to skip introduction
Press 2
Press 6 to find case status information
Press 1
Now enter your receipt number SRCxxxxxxxxxx
Voice asks if SRC press 1
Then reads out application number, if correct, press 1 (now listen to the case update info..blah blah)
Part way through the blah blah press 3
Wait a moment and press 4
(now if you hear a male voice telling you that no IO is available, it will redirect it to National Customer Service Center (NCSC) you can cut the phone.. and try the same steps)
You should hear "You have reached the TSC of USCIS�" OTHERWISE you have been bounced to NCSC. NCSC only sees what you see when you login to check case status at https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/index.jsp i.e. you will not get any useful information out of them.
Once you get an IO, be very polite, and take notes for your records. Ask them for their badge number. That way you can reference each conversation by date and the badge number of the IO.
Some of the standard questions:
1) Name check Status ?
2) Background Check Status ?
3) Has it been assigned to an officer ?
4) When can I expect to get some updates on my case ?
5) Can you help me with a ball park date on when my case will be assigned to an officer?
Ofcourse, we all are aware of the standard response we get.
This is very helpful.Thank you.

Dear Fellow IVians
quick update: I received the receipt notices today for EAD Renewal by mail. can't believe it, but truly received for myself and my wife.
Big question is
1.Mine is having case number as LIN08801XXXXX which is fine, because my entire GC process since past 5 years is in Nebraska Service Center. I'm the primary applicant
2.But wife's case number is different, which is NSC08801XXXXX and clearly mentioned in the notice that her case is with national benefits center, Lee's summit MO.( By the way we live in Missouri)
The entries for "Class requested" is shown as C09 in both cases, which i believe correct.
Help:
Has anybody received like this before? if it's normal, i'm not worried
If not, any clues about next steps like do i need to call somebody or call Nebraska ??? a bit worried. any help ???????
Thanks in advance

Yes. This is excerpts from: http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=18737
Efiled EAD passing through multiple service centers
Mailed:
.... Confirmation Receipt
.... Photocopy of I485 recept
.... Photocopy of EAD both side
.... Original letter which came with EAD (after tearing upper part - for quick processing)
Mid June 2008, paper receipt (from NSC) took over 10 days. It is now taking more time.
FP notice (from MSC, code 2) after two weeks, scheduled in fifth week (in ASC San Jose).

Hi All:
Question: I have a I-140 PD Sept 2005 - EB-3, And completed 4.5 years (6year end oin July 2008) on H1. I changed the job in Jan, 2007 and using the approved I-140- 3 year H1 Ext rule, I received my extention for 3 year until 2010. Now my new employer des not want to file for greencard for 1 year. meanwhile if my old employer withdraws my I-140 what would happen in this case, if I start my LC application in jan 2008.
This is very grey area but technically you are out-of-status if I-140 is revoked but USCIS is taking too long for revoking the cases.Hence see to it that your new company goes with GC processing soon and get your I-140 approved.
Here is your situation, H1b is only for 6 years so if you are getting an extension after 6 years then there should be some proof(labor pending or I-140 approved) so if this proof goes off due to I-140 being revoked, USCIS has every reason to say that you are out-of-status but because of your H1 extension you have an I-94 which says that you are in-status. So one can fight on the basis of I-94.
Hope this helps.

i have applied for AP 3 months back for myself (primary) and my wife. we got wife's AP 3 weeks back. not even LUD on mine. so i faxed expedite request on Jan26th.
Got a letter 2 days back saying,
' this aknowledges ur expedite fax. we have been unable to locate any record of a decision made on ur case. if u desire, u can file a duplicate application'.
they asked to send dup application with a 'Attention: Do not open in mailroom, deliver to co-ord supervisor'.
they also enclosed an bright orange letter for expedite proc and asked me to place on top.
the header of this orange letter reads 'Attachment 4: NSC has determined that ur appl previously submitted cannot be located :-( therefore u r requested to file a duplicate'.
im guessing in the pile of apps, they couldnt fetch mine :-(
i kinda ignored this letter and been preparing for H1 stamping back home. took VFS appointment, plane tix, what not.
to top all this, yesterday there was soft LUD on my case and again another one today.
so i am guessing they located my application and started working on it.
i have seen in case of my wife's AP and another one on the forum, few days before AP approval, u get soft LUDs 3/4 times and then the status changes to 'document mailed to applicant'.
while i still have H1 back-up plan, im hoping my AP will get approved in 2/3 days.
