Basically the receipt notice we will get soon would have a 'received date' and a 'notice date'.
I read in another forum that 90-day count starts from the received date.
I am not sure though!

Pl. find here some more stuff about DOL/BEC and PERM.
http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/expectmore/detail.10002380.2005.html
I believe this is an older version of the report I was talking about as it says "Assessment Year2004"
The question is why is DOL projecting that it is doing a great job? There are serious flaws everywhere and there are thousands who will testify to that. They do not know how much money to ask from the Congress and they do not know if they can even meet the deadlines they have set. Also look at the way the goals have changed
Page 212
"The goal to reduce processing time to six months for 90% of applications, though ambitious relative to current 32- month processing, may not be either sufficiently tailored or ambitious for the new automated review process, if program reforms go as planned, and processing rates are as high as envisioned."
"ETA Congressional Justification submitted with the President's Budget for FY 2005: (1) Reduce average processing time such that 90% of new applications are processed within six months of filing (target ambitious relative to current processing time of 32 months; target remains same in future years; contingent on implementation of reforms). (2) In 2004, reduce backlog of permanent applications by 36. 5% from 270,000, and in 2005, by 42% from 171, 450 (revised goal: elimination of backlog by end of 2006). (3) Goal for 2003 was to "assist employers in meeting their workforce needs by providing them with expeditious determinations on their applications to hire foreign workers under the [permanent, H- 1B, and H- 2B programs]". (4)Goal for 2001 and 2002 had been to "promptly review employer applications for foreign labor certification". Goals tie to program's mission and DOL's Strategic Goal 4, A Competitive Workforce. Numerical targets for processing will almost certainly need adjustment upon implementation of the new,automated system and centralized processing."

Hi,
I've been in US for over a year on my L1b Visa. Last year i applied for my H1B visa and got through in the loottery. My Visa became effective Oct08. I still have net left my L1 company and nor have got my H1B Visa stamped. Its been 6 months since the VISA is effective. What should I do now, Im not getting jobs outside and also the L1 company is more secure from the job perspective. Should I just revoke my H1B or is it ok to live in the US like this?
Thanks

Hi All,
I have got fingerprint notice and appointment is after 3 weeks in Charlotte NC. I will not be available on that day and do not want to postpone the appointment.
I would like to prepone the appointment and I tried to find Charlotte USCIS local phone number but could not find anywhere. The only number is general 800 number and that was of no use.
Does anyone have any experience with Charlotte office? Can I just go there and will they do fingerprint any day before actual appointment? Charlotte is around 4 hours drive. It will be painful to drive there and find that they don't do fingerprint before appointment day. What day is normally good if I want to take the chance? Have anyone actually called them and prepone the appointment? What is the local office phone number?
These are two many questions. But all are related. Sorry for being so long and thanks in advance for your response...
rangeela....
Not sure if you can prepone. Call the customer service and check if they can schedule sooner. I think, given the July fiasco/rush, they schedule based on the availabilty of appointment in local office.
Also can you please share you reciept date/notice date and when you received your FP appointment. Was your case directly sent to TSC or got trasnferred to TSC from other center.

We are expecting some surprises in the July Bulletin. Remember July 2007 fiasco. This year also there are some situations like CIR as before. What about the expected spillover? However, can we expect positive surprises?
Let us start the prediction, analysis, etc, game for the July Bulletin.

My answer might be a little too pessimistic but I actually filed an appeal for a denied LC in Sep 2006. and as of today I still haven't heard from them. we tried calling and emailing them but they keep asking us to wait and they will get to it.
sorry and good luck. please keep me updated if you hear something from them.
Thanks
I filed my LC on June 06. The Certification was denied on Feb 07, I filed an appeal right away, and I have not heard anything. I called the DOL so many time and they gave me the same response: "Your case is in process, we work on first in, first out, and we do not expedited cases, we don't have a frame time" That is not a concrete answer.
There is any body that faced a similar situation, Please advised�. what to do!!!!

I would suggest to check the validity (start/end dates) of the LCA that was submitted along with your H1 petition. Also, check on the I-129 petition if your attorney entered correct dates or the dates on the LCA/I-129 match the dates approved by the USCIS.

I think it's not wise to leave. I tried googling for h-1b transfer & leaving the country but didn't get much info. I think if a transfer is pending with USCIS then you shouldn't leave the country as it may be considered as abandonment of the application.
i would advice to get it done under premium processing. i am not sure when the i-94 records are updated but if USCIS sees that you left India while the transfer is pending, they might issue you I-797 but with instructions to get it stamped at a consulate in India.
just my thoughts..better try googling or ask some lawyer.

If you do not remember the secret question or answer then you have no choice, its probably much easier to use a new id + new email address. Next time, shoot yourself an email with the userid/password/secret question + answer for your record just in case you forget.

I am not 100% sure on this reply ....
As soon as you use EAD, your H1B status is voided. I have read that if you have worked less then 6 months on EAD then there are chances that you could get back on the same H1.
Now, once 6 months (180) days have passed, your unused H1 is supposed to get cancelled.
You may want to check with some good attorney though.
Sorry, not much help.
Good luck.
GCCovet
You H1-B is not voided when you use the EAD and effectively you can go back to using H1-B.
They do not stamp your Visa with - "voided without prejudice" which they do when you change your visa type normally or apply for a renewal before the last one has expired.
NOTE - the assumption is that the H1-B is the underlying petition on which you are now seeking immigration.
Border immigration officer may ask you to use the Ap if you have it and that is totally officer dependent. There are no clear guidelines on that one...
Hope this helps

I went to Delhi recently for emergency appointment. The person who replied to my email (within 12 hours) told me to call next morning.
He gave me option for next day and told me to bring demand draft rather than their receipt for HDFC bank (lady at the counter did ask me about it though).
You should complete the online application as per their recommendations on website. It is very important. They would avoid data entry by you doing so.
Counter Lady put a blue sticker on my passport just like old times and asked me to collect my passport from embassy counter itself.
After usual long wait, I was interviewed and even though I did not have some of the documents she asked, she did not create any problems.
However, she said since my application is not cleared in PIMS, she is helpless in issuing visa. She gave me pink slip with ' petition not in PIMS' and emergency appointment written over it.
She asked me to check status on line at NEw delhi embassy website.
Anyway, it took them 2 weeks to clear PIMS and I had to postpone my flight 2 times. Emails to them is useless. they would not reply at Delhi. Phone is answered between 2-3 PM and I have to constantly redial many many times before some one will pick up.
I asked for them to return my passport many times so that I can return on AP but they would not do that. (could have been risky long term as my I 140 is not cleared yet). My h1b attorney`s paralegal did advice me to come back on AP if I am at risk of loosing my job. She said usually going back to H1b is very simple process even after you enter on AP.
Anyway, If you have AP, think twice if your employer is not willing to wait longer than necessary.
By the way my information was never updated on website even after I got the visa. My wife was calling DOS in US and they were very helpful in telling the status of PIMS.
Hopefully that helps you in your difficult times.
