How does this effect anyone applying for DL..
http://a257.g.akamaitech.net/7/257/2422/01jan20081800/edocket.access.gpo.gov/2008/08-140.htm
Are we going to get temporary DLs from now on?
Can someone confirm? I know IV is following up with MI state Attorney Generals office, but from reading the ruling the validity of the license is not clear.
Here is a response to a comments by DHS..Looks like for most of us whose i94 will be expired but have filed an application like 485 whic is pending..hence the lawful end date of stay is indeterminate - the license will be 1 year only...bummer
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Comment: Numerous States expressed concern that the current
processing time involved in USCIS review of applications for various
immigration statuses impacted by REAL ID will result in a large number
of applicants who wish to renew their licenses but their applications
to extend their status has not been acted on by USCIS within the year.
Two States suggested that States issue interim documents that would be
valid for very short periods until an applicant receives his or her
permanent document demonstrating lawful status. Another commenter
suggested that such an interim card be based on the applicant's visa
until authorization is received and verified through SAVE, which should
be programmed to contact the querying State when there is an updated
applicant status. One commenter recommended that the rule allow States
to use a license expiration date 90 days beyond the expiration date of
the immigration document to allow for USCIS processing of applications
to extend lawful status. Commenters said that individuals in certain
statuses will not be able to comply with the requirement to present
documentation showing extended lawful status upon renewal because in
most cases, their statuses will not have been extended but merely
continued.
Response: Again, State DMVs will use the SAVE system, and not
particular documentation, to determine that the license applicant is in
lawful status. An application that is properly filed with USCIS
entitles the person to remain in lawful status beyond the period listed
on the person's Form I-94 or other immigration document, that
information is reflected in the SAVE system. Thus, aliens in these
situations would be able to obtain REAL ID-compliant licenses and
States would not have to add any additional processes with USCIS.

I have been reading all the posts and been contributing modestly and been suffering for a long time because of retrogression. In my humble opinion what ever we do if it needs to succeed we definitely need to *distinguish* ourselves from illegal aliens and other professions and prove that us staying here is in best interest of the US. Not to discourage anybody but CIR is a big task and I don't think politicians are really ready to solve this problem because of its magnitude and huge implications it is going to have for deciding to go one way or another. Probably retrogression would have been solvable with relative difficulty if it is not for the timing of CIR.
and somebody mentioned that allowing to file for 485 with out need for waiting for visa numbers may actually increase the retrogression because of some of the privisions for illegal aliens..I am not totally sure on this but if it is true it just makes all the more important that we need to establish seperate category for high skilled workers.
I think SKIL bill would be one way to go and another would be to actually lower the limit of investment category visa..I know the second one seems like a long shot because currently it requires $500K in rural areas and generally one million but hear me out
If we could lower that limit to $100 k and make it investment in any US based companies in addition to having certain years of work experience in the US. We can argue that we are actually contributing to economy in more than one way and us being here helps generate more jobs in the US and it definitely makes different from others.
I know preapproved labors were being sold at >$25k at one point and if people knew that there wouldn't be any problems with that then a lot of us would have shed that money for a guaranteed GC so if 100k over a period of time would guarantee a GC and that 100k is still going to be with us after certain amount of time then may be it is not that bad idea....
I am glad some one else also agrees with my thoughts..Let us continue this discussion on old thread..

I am also on the same boat. Did you get answer for your question? i.e. linking your old 485 to new I-140?
Thanks,
Naga
Hi,
My company gave ma a substitution labor and it is having a problem in term of degree.
My I-485 is also pending based on that I-140.
1. Is it possible to apply new labor and I-140 in premium processing and use that new I-140 for previously applied I-485?
2. In substitution labor that person was having 4 years of Bachelor degree and I have 3 years of bachelor degree, lawyer said there is a chance for get approval for I-140 based on substitution labor.
Please advice.

Hi,
I'm in the US working on L1 visa, though I have an expired visa, I have I94 valid until Jun 2008 which makes me legal to work here until Jun 2008. Now, I'm planning to travel to India, Do I need transit visa in France if I travel via france.
Thanks in advance,
Sheshadri

If issue arises with I485 while i EAD, that would a big headache of replying RFE or opening MTR etc in timely fashion. EAD/AP stand cancelled if 485 is denied.
Evaluate the odds of 485 denial and then take a decision (H1/EAD). Just don't get into analysis/paralysis mode.

I went for Driver licence renewal.I have I797 H1B notice of approval for 2 more years.But I don't have it stamped in passport.So when they see it,they said they won't consider it as visa on passport is not valid and expired.Though I am not using ,I have valid EAD card also.So When I shown it ,they renewd my licence.Now I am thinking,is it ok If I use my EAD card for licence renewal as I am not using EAD status now.I want to be on H1B only.I don't want to use EAD now. can anybody tell me will it be alright to use EAD?Does it effect anywhere in my status?
Please respond.
As mentioned in your other post. This should have no bearing on your status.
Question: Dear Ms. Murthy, can one apply for a driver�s license with I-485 receipt notice or is the EAD needed?
Answer: Generally, most DMVs will only issue the DL when one has some clear legal status like H-4 or H1B status. The I-485 should be sufficient, in most cases, and the problem is often that the DMV staff is not as well trained with immigration documents. By requesting to speak with the supervisor, one may be able to obtain the DL based on the I-485 receipt notice, since all that the law requires as evidence that one is legal in the U.S.Apr-7-2008.

I'm puzzled that there has been a slow reaction to the Bernie Sander's killer amendment that was disguised as a scholarship fund which has always been there and has benefited many Americans and the National Science Foundation. None of the faxes have been amended neither have the emails, we're asking for good things which are only likely to benefit a few but leave many others in peril. We need to find a way to cushion the effect of this amendment and at the same time highlight that the H1 program is not what it has been vilified to be.
Point is, if IV attains its goals on EB visas, there will still be many members affected by Bernie Sander's amendment. Of what use will visa number availability be to someone whose non H1-B dependent employer makes an economic decision to lay them off as they can longer afford to spend $250,000 a year + attorney fees renewing 50 H1-B's ? Given that this person would instantly be out of status (and find it difficult to find an employer rushing to spend $5k right away), the individual would have no recourse also given that they would not be eligible for a Z visa. Can someone help me understand why sticking to an old though good strategy and message without slightly adapting it to the current reality holds good promise for those in limbo by paying no attention to the effects of the Sander's amendment (pending at BEC, beyond 6th year renewal, I-140 not filed as of May 21st 2007 etc)
1. Any H1B issues affect employers more than the employees, so employers will make an issue out of any onerous requirement.
2. Any H1B fee is to be paid by the employer and is viewed as a tax and cost of doing business by the employer. Like any tax, it will mean cutbacks in other areas possibly existing charitable contributions to education or some such non essential cost.
I would expect Compete America and employers to speak up if they feel they would be affected by any H1B taxes.

There have been many issues with USCIS and three year degrees from Canada, India and the UK. If you want to fight this then you have to prove that your education is equivalent to a US bachelors which many of the degrees from some countries are. You cannot use experience towards adding credits to your degree when dealing with an I-140 like you can for a H1B visa. Two years equals an Associate degree - three year bachelors programs can be (and have been) proven to equal a US bachelors.
This degree evaluation company has been the most successful in generating acceptable evaluations that complete a successfull case approval. It cost me a lot more than I expected but at least I was able to get my I-140 approved.

Hi All
Thanks for a great forum. I am EB3 India (PD Dec 02) with 140 approved June this year. Rumor has it that the small firm I work for, is going to be acquired by a much larger firm with thousands of employees globally. I am concerned about my ongoing GC process. First question
Q1. What happens to my GC process?
Considering the behemoth like size of the company that is going to acquire us I am quite sure that the GC process of the few employees from my present employer will take a back seat.
Q2. What are the things I can do proactively.
I have read on various threads that it is possible to join other employers and port the PD to them. But considering the fact that company that started the GC process is no longer there, how would this porting of PD with new labor, 140 etc would occur...
I would appreciate if someone can provide answers to my questions. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
