If you're worried, the easiest thing to do is to have the name changed in the passport. The Consulate doesn't ask for any questions and issues the new passport within a day. For my friend, the first name and the last name were interchanged and getting the new passport was a breeze.

I agree with you totally on this chanduv23.
Doing things legal ways is just fine in most cases. But there are some times when you need to decide and treat people in a humane way.
A saying goes. "Headache pains are known to only those who have it and suffer." Somebody was arguing that scientifically delivery is just a natural phenomenon. But the pains and trauma can only be felt by a woman who delivers and there are circumstances when you are forced to be in shackes during delivery.
Hope this sensitive thread does not divide the IV community.
Very well said. I have been on IV and actively participated in a lot of campaigns and events and interacted with a lot of people from different walks of life, different nationalities, different situations etc ... WHat I have noticed is, everyone has their own opinion and stay entitled to their opinion. Everyone wants to be judgemental through their opinion.
Now, lets all for a moment - step out of our "legal immigrant" shoes and step into the shoes of someone who has to decide what to do? As a decision maker, what will you do? Everyone has their own opinion to which they are entitled and thats whats happening.
Now, ocne again - step out of your legal immigrant shoes, and say, for some reason, you lost status and are deportable - what will be your opinion? Would you say "Shakle me and put me in detention center?"
If you are in poverty and and have no food for 2 days, you may go grab a bread from a store and run to a safe place and eat it - will you talk all these rules about shop lifting .....
If you catch a hungry child shoplifting to eat a bread will you PUNISH him? Ir will you try to do someting to make things better for him?
All you have to do is to come out of "the hate and hard" thinking and try to look at things in "rational and meaningful way"
Hate no one for what they are or how they are. Try to see if you can help. Just help.
I have been living in US for close to 10 years now and though I am proud of fellow Indian community and their achievements, I have also noticed how the community is divided and oponionated. Forming so many sub groups, promoting caste feelings, fighting each other, trying to piut down other fellow community members, lack of unity and what not ....
If everyone in this world want to be considerate and help - then there will certainly be a day when we can see a world without poverty, wars and all the issues we are having today.

I just spoke to Indian consulate, NYC. The procedure to correct the last name is very simple. All you need is an Affidavit from the person (Signed in US, saying that you are correcting your name.), 4 photos and a copy of 797 or Visa. No need of advertizements, or Indian affidavit.
Please note, this is applicable only if,
In your passport Surname is Blank
Given name has <first name><last Name> (and all spelling etc are correct)
and you want it to be corrected to
Surname <last Name>
Given Name <First Name>
They will issue a new booklet with corrected name. It's same day service in NYC.

What was the date on which you filed. I think you should be fine. I did it the same way and got the letter from the Grad School. Mine was filed on 23rd. I haven't received the receipt yet!! dunno when it would come in!! this delay sucks!
The letter actually does not mention all degree requirements have been fulfilled. This left me really upset (I asked the dept to fax it directly to company, so I had not seen it).
It says "XYZ completed all coursework requirements for his PhD in EE at the University ABC, and deposited his thesis on April 11 2007. His degree should then be officially conferred in May 13 2007"
Obviously course + thesis = all degree requirements for PhD, but I wonder if USCIS might question it. The company's attorney (a highly reputable company) okayed the letter and he said denial is unlikely and that they will either approve it or issue an RFE; but based on my readings of other posts I think there is a fair chance that it might be denied.
The irony is that I got a letter from the registrar on April 16, but by that time the attorney had already filed with the weaker letter. I asked him to send the other one when quota was still available but he said it was unnecessary.
Please anyone with similar experience comment.

I love your holier than thou condescending attitude. You probably break some law everyday ! Don't tell me you have never been speeding. You probably didn't get caught !
I shouldn't even be replying to your post, but I'll bite and take the bait.
I didn't break the law knowingly, I did come here legally. I just happened to fall in love with someone and moved to her state. It's too bad it didn't work out, however I have maintained legal status after leaving the country and re-entering, back in '04. Look at the chronology.
Please try to offer constructive criticism or information. If you don't have any, move on.
I am on your side. This person seems to be a saint and talking about legal immigrants as if you are and illegal. He's an A**.

Can someone please clarify this to me?
I'm really confused with the rule right now. Since my last entry was Apr 2007 and I worked only from July 2007, was I out of status?
I've read this -
Out of Status is counted only since last entry in US for employment related I-485. And Section 245(k) covers out of status upto 180 days.
And I've read this from somewhere too -
For a new H1B, a grace period of up to 60 days is allowed before you can start work after entering the country.
which rule is correct? Thank you again
Both are correct. What is your confusion?

Is IV only for those who have filed I485?
I gave my opinion and people gave me lot of reds. There is a majority here who already have EAD and have filed I485. You people do not care for those who are less fortunate and struggling in the early stages of the process. If July 07 had not happened, all of you would be asking for I485 filing option today.
By giving reds to people who disagree you will drive people away and make IV only for those who have filed I485 and not for the entire EB immigration people.

I was discussing with another member about contribution.
We have around 7K + members and there are more joining so if we all go on a contribution of $20/member marathon with the target date as Jan 2, imagine the financial support core team would have to approach QGA for lobbying efforts. Congress's decision in Januray or February seems to be our best shot for relief with all problems.
So, let's do it, its just $20 before Jan.2 ! Please contribute,
thanks,
paskal> can you please change the thread title to "contribute just $20" or something catchy :)

I was confused because of this statement which is stating 60 days only -
For a new H1B, a grace period of up to 60 days is allowed before you can start work after entering the country.
One more thing I'm sorry. Last April(last entry date) when I came back after vacation, I transferred to a new company, after I got the receipt number they asked me to start working (that was around April too). Until now, I haven't received any approval yet. What should I enter in my present employer details, my old company or new company (wherein my transfer is still in process)?
Thanks again.

EB2 for india and China is U as of Aug 21st..maybe that's why..see my post in a seperate thread
holy cow..if the visas are already U for this Month..
I am thinking about the probability of the officer opening my case next month and then approving the case? I cant see that happening anyway..
Very near yet so far..I guess now I clearly understand what that means. :cool:
Good luck to all of you for your GCs ;)

What is pathetic is your blindness to discern right from wrong.
I certainly expected a better articulated reply than a brilliant one-liner.
Anyways, not sure why you are so hung up on the person being illegal so she deserves what she got line. You may have to step back and look at what the larger trend here is. You and I can be the next target (see slippery slope article below).

This is the sad reality. A lot of people applied using sub labor during the June and July fiasco. A lot of people made it through the July 15th deadline by atleast filing a 140 through sub labor.
Now USCIS is processing all these 140s and as they have old dates, they are becoming approvable.
As long as there are visas with old dates approvable - USICS will exhaust them. As long as USCIS exhausts old visas, DOS need not move the dates forward.

I don't realize why should anyone blame cableching...??
It seems to me that he just shared the information that he got and the way he understood. Would anyone else have done it any differently?
I dont think it really matters whether they have used up all visas now vs at the end of sept. Because, there were "X" number of visas to be given out and so "X" number of applicants would be chosen randomly (USCIS Lottery style..:p) and that happend...
If at all, this is a good news, that they actually finished this lottery process and so nothing will go to waste...(It would be too bad if california Lotto comes out with a winner number ticket that does not belong to anyone!!!)
And, we will never know whether this news is true or it is a misunderstanding on the part of cableching or the IO lady. (I personally dont think either of them are lying...but it could be a misunderstanding, especially with regard to category EB3 vs EB2). Regardless whether it is ture or a misunderstanding, we will see approvals coming through over next several months. (Just like what happened in June 07). So it is quilte likely that many of the waiting people would get their GCs if their names is picked up in the lottery!! So good luck to all...
I also believe that such memo WILL need to be sent out to all USCIS local offices as they do process some applications in some cases (with interviews etc...) and they do need to know if all the numbers are exhausted.

According to DHS statistics there are around 50,000 EB2 lndia Labors in 2004 and 2005 each. So ppl with 2005, 2006 priority dates you can wait around 6-7 years for ur priority dates to be current with annual limit of around 5000 for EB2 India.
The lawsuit can be filed by your American Civil Liberties Union Member or ur aunt or uncle or mistress who is a US citizen. U guys and gals with 485's will not be there in the lawsuit but will benefit if the lawsuit wins.
Doesnt sound correct. Perm started March 2005 and for the entire 2005 year, i saw somewhere that the total number of LCs filed were close to 10-15K, for all countries...so i dont know how you arrived at this 50K number, only for EB2-India...
