Send letter to WH & IV. I have forwarded the IV message to many of my friends.
I forwarded the IV message to my company HR person and requested it to be cascaded to all the individuals in our company. He has agreed to forward. I hope we get additional letters sent out to WH.
Dear friends,
Please forward to your HR and request them to cascade to all employees seeking "legal" immigration.

This is the worst bill ever. 1987 amnesty bill atleast had a flawless game plan when it was passed. This one will not pass. If it passes, I am going back to India. At least in India polititions are not brainless, they are only corrupt. I choose to go back to India if this bill passes. And if dubya signs this bill, he will be the Tuglaq (most foolish Indian emperor ever) of USA.

EAD, AP & FP notice are sent directly to the applicant. If you see the status of AP as document mailed then you should get within 2/3 days as they send by DHL. I got mine in 2 days, my wife also got in 2 days
This isn't neccesarily true for AP. I saw the same status, but my lawyer got AP approvals.

I work with corporate lawyers everyday, and yes they are very smart. However, immigration lawyers are the bottom of the barrel.
Being smart and cheating people doesn't have to be exclusive. They can go hand in hand.

It is sad...But how can this happen when you paid the money for the application?Did you contact the attorney directly?
I would like to know How to file a complaint about labor fraud? I just found out that my employer didn't file 485 for me and instead he used the labor for someone else. Is there anyway I can file a complaint? I have no other option except to wait until the dates are current again. I paid all the expenses for labor, 140 and 485.

I believe Mbhai did a dis-service by negating good advice. What is the guarantee that the 2nd women that this guy marries will not ask for divorce? The best thing he can do is find a way to reconcile, unless there is marital infidility.
I believe "snathan" story was inspiring and addressed the true problem of that individual and every indivudual's life. Trust me, when you all get your GC's ...it will be these things that will matter to all of you, rather than anything else.
I think we, in this forum, should get more mature in handling others personnel issues. The reason I was against that "snathan" story was that we are trying to play goody goody for no reason. We are in a country where the divorce rate is the highest..then why don't we open this forum for all of those people..let's play good Samaritan to everyone...

Whether H! or EAD, if you are changing job it should be same or similar job classification. Using EAD is a blessing in disguise as there is no need to notify USCIS, unless there is a RFE. However, it is always better to inform USCIS and keep the job change in their file. It will help you when you travel on Adavnce parole. At POE, you need not fear to answer the question, whether you work for the same employer? you can answer saying you work for a new employer and AC21 has already been notified to USCIS.
Again the key is Same or similar occupation.
I am currently on H1B visa and I want to switch the company. New company is not willing to do H1B transfer and want me to work on EAD. I have pending I485 EB3 ROW with priority date of March 2006. Its been more than 180 days that I filed for I485 so I can use AC21 with EAD.
But my question is how risky will it be if I switch job at this stage with EAD?
Thanks in advance,
BK

Press Release
Rep. Lofgren Introduces Bill to Retain International Talent
Bill Would Allow Best and Brightest in STEM Fields to Stay in the United States.May 14, 2008
Washington, D.C. � Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) recently introduced H.R.6039, which would allow masters and Ph.D. level graduates from U.S. universities in science, technology, engineering, and math to obtain green cards without waiting in long lines, if they have job offers from U.S. employers. The measure enjoys strong bipartisan support, initial co-sponsors include: Reps. Chris Cannon (R-UT), Michael Capuano (D-MA), Chris Carter (R-TX), John Conyers (D-MI), Joseph Crowley (D-NY), Tom Davis (R-VA), Anna Eshoo (D-CA), Wayne Gilchrist (R-MD), Mike Honda (D-CA), Patrick Kennedy (D-RI), Carolyn Maloney (D-NY), Jim McDermott (D-WA), George Miller (D-CA), David Reichert (R-WA), Linda Sanchez (D-CA), Loretta Sanchez (D-CA), John Shadegg (R-AZ), Adam Smith (D-WA), and Ellen Tauscher (D-CA).
�More than 50% of the graduates from U.S. universities in masters and Ph.D. programs in science and engineering are foreign born,� noted Rep. Zoe Lofgren. �If we want our economy to continue competing in the global market, we have to retain these foreign students so they compete with us instead of against us in other countries. These men and women are the innovators of tomorrow, and we aren�t the only ones looking to retain their talents. Increasingly, employers from Europe, Australia, Canada, and even China and India, are beating U.S. employers for valuable talent. In 2000, for example, 75% of the world�s engineers were hired by U.S. employers�just six years later in 2006, that percentage dropped to 63%. This legislation will give U.S. employers another tool to recruit the world�s best and brightest.�

Werc:
Thanks for your post. However, as per my original post, could you indicate the section where in the INA does it mention when employment authorization can be given? In fact, the first line in the in the paper in the link included by Bee in his post, clearly mentions that "...nowhere in the statutes or regulations, is there a reference to a work permit" (i.e. an EAD as clarified later in the document).
As you mention later in your post, yes it is hard to get something from USCIS, but should we shy away from something just because it is hard? Also, as the same document (posted by BEE) mentions, the reasons for issuing an EAD are varied.
But let us take the specific case you mentioned, a student can work up to 12 months after his graduation. This time frame is provided for multiple reasons, the main one being to give the student to find employment in his related field of education and for the employer to evaluate him and process his adjustment of status. Without the EAD, the student would have to find employment and adjust his status within 2 months or be out of status. BUT the EAD also provides the student the choice of changing employers without losing his status.
Now, coming to the issue of EAD after I-140 or after I-485...By submitting the I-140 the employer is not only asking the USCIS to approve the need (as certified by the DOL) of a alien as a permanent worker, the employer is also providing the USCIS with particulars of the alien who will be hired. Therefore, by approving the I-140, the USCIS is not only approving the need of the employer, it is also approving the alien for the job. This is also supported by the fact that the USCIS allows concurrent filing of I-140 and I-485 if the priority date is current for that particular country/category. Hence, an EAD after I-140 not only allows the employer to hire an alien already in the company, it also allows the alien who might be working for an employer other than the one which applied for the I-140 to switch jobs, without worrying about being out-of-status, if he is very close to finishing his 6years on an H1B. For an alien who is outside the country when his I-140 is approved (very rare case, but possible), he can enter the US on an H1B sponsored by the petitioning employer and then apply for an EAD for himself and his dependents while waiting for the visa number to be available and file his I-485. BUT the EAD also gives the alien the chance to find another willing employer within 6 months for similar job descriptions and within the same geographic area without being out of status and preserve the priority date rather than worry about losing his status if something unfortunate happens to the petitioning employer (ENRON, MCI, etc.)
Whether, this will be successful or not is another question. But unless you try you can never be sure. Before 1969, a man on the moon was an impossibility but it happened :) Changing the law is the NEED of the day and we should be pursuing it to the full extent of our capabilities for LONG term relief. But, asking the agencies who interpret the existing laws and apply them to reconsider will not and should not in any way hamper our efforts in this. Rather this is something that is a SHORT term relief that in no way goes against the word of the law or against the intent of Congress when it passed the law.
Well, since this has been an long post, I will call it my 4 cents.:D Thoughts, comments and brickbats are, as usual, welcome.
very nice analysis.

actually I realized the difference bet LC ads and EEOC laws:
Per EEOC, they cannot discriminate to hire a person on a visa. But for green card sponsorship, they have to show preference for an equally qualified USC or perm resident.
I know this b/c my employer, while sponsoring a previous H-1b at my firm, during the LC process found a qualified USC. They stopped the gc process, but could not let the person go b/c it is legal to hire an H-1b even if USCs are available.
What practical sense does this make? Once an employer sponsors an H-1b, why would he want to go thru the whole recruiting and training process again to hire a new person?
When it comes to implementation, things vary. Laws are made so that they can be worked around, laws are made in a way that can be interpreted in many ways, laws canbe generalised, they have grey areas. Everything is based on convinience.

Dude, You are looking at not getting a RFE based on the pics. Not that picture people or JCPenny takes great pics and make u look like Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise.
:D :p
I got 2 RFE's for pictures only. Those are the only 2 RFE's till date for me.
I had real bad experience with digital pics. But there are many people who didnt have any issues. So it is all your luck.
If you have RFE, it sets u back by 2 months for the approval.
Just my 2 cents.....
My experience with Picture People was ok - fair, I guess those are fine pictures as per USCIS specifications, but nothing out of the ordinary. 14.99 for a set of 4 pictures. Set me back about $80 for 3 sets of 8 pictures.
But my own pictures came out better and are as per specifications. The question is whether to take a chance in case i missed anything or to go with Ok-Fair pictures from Picture People. decisions.. decisions... damn.. retrogression

I agree with you. It's not required by law to file any AC21 papers so the USCIS cannot do much. Also, the green card cannot be revoked after 5 years so by the time you apply for citizenship, the USCIS cannot do anything bad to you. Worst case, they will ask about it during the citizenship interview so it's a good idea to keep your employment offer handy. But it's very unlikely and I really doubt they can deny your citizenship based on this. That's why I see no drawbacks in not filing AC21 and no benefits in filing it if you know that I-140 won't be withdrawn. My advice would be to take an employment letter from current employer and keep it in case the USCIS asks for it. There is no need to cause troubles for yourself by letting the USCIS know about it.
There are so many things not required by law but you have to do which if you did not do is fraud or lie by ommision. Any material change to your case which could affect the decision of USCIS in awarding you with GC should be reported and USCIS "expects" us to do that.
I am telling all of you, there is a similar case on going right now. A couple apply for citizenship and got denied because of the discovery of fraud on their GC process. They are now in "removal proceedings".
