Infact I got a call from US Consulate and they said the same thing to me, and they offered to cancel the appointment for me.
I did get the appointment thru some agency and was wondering if they played a trick but the agency vehemently denied doing any such thing,
I had a Toronto appt as well.
However not sure if it was an official call or a prank
I have an appointment in Toronto next month and today I got a voice message from the US embassy in Canada saying that there could be processing delays of days or months and the decision will be taken by the visa office during the interview. Has anyone else got this kind of message?

Folks,
My wife needs an EAD to apply for medical residency in the US. We have our EAD application pending (receipt date Aug 27th). We know we will get our EAD eventually. But the problem is more complex.
For medical residency, programs call candidates for interviews in Nov/Dec. So they start offering interview slots in Sep/Oct timeframe. If you don't have an EAD card or EAD-approval notice, they will not even consider you. They don't care if you say that EAD will definitely come by Dec (or something like that).
We tried our local congressman, but even he said he couldn't do anything
until the 90-day processing time had passed. We tried the local INFOPASS office and submitted an expedite request, but that got denied.
So we are urgently looking for ways to get my wife's EAD ASAP. If we don't get the EAD in time, my wife will lose an year and in medical residency, every year you sit at home counts (against you).
Does anyone here have any ideas what we can do ! Note: This EAD is needed for *education* purposes and not for *gainful* employment.
Don't worry you'll get it soon.
I'm also in same, we got recently.

Congratulations on your marriage.
Depending on where your would be spouse is ,there are two methods.
1. If she is outside the country , you would have to get her H-4 at the nearest consulate.
2. If she is in the country , and assuming you want to change her status to H4 , you can do it by filing the change of status form with USCIS.
Either way I do not think you would be requiring a lawyer. It is pretty straight forward. All the required instructions are on the form.

Taught of debating if it is worth to live here more ??
Basically I came here to earn some money and to have some good life ( cleaning my bathroom myself -- lol )
The way things are going here in US with Jobs / Economy overall thinking if it is worth to live here and worth to get a US Passport or to keep renewing GC.
I know it all depends on each indivisual perspective and views.. but taught of looking other views on this.

Hi Attorney,
Can someone please guide me in what direction or steps do I need to take in my situation.
My Situation:
Dentist working in a Non-Profit organization for 4yrs.
EB3
PD: Aug 2006
LC - Approved
140 - Approved
485 - Filed Aug 2007
485 RFE for EVL - Submitted.
EAD (2yr) and AP - Approved
After submission of RFE, I got accepted into a 2yr speciality program that is one of a kind and I have been waiting to get into this for a long time, and it is like a dream getting accepted.
I am presently in the program and I received the following update.
Application Type: I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
Current Status: This case is now pending at the office to which it was transferred.
The I485 APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS was transferred and is now pending standard processing at a USCIS office. You will be notified by mail when a decision is made, or if the office needs something from you. If you move while this case is pending, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address. We process cases in the order we receive them. You can use our processing dates to estimate when this case will be done, counting from when USCIS received it. Follow the link below to check processing dates. You can also receive automatic e-mail updates as we process your case. To receive e-mail updates, follow the link below to register.
I will be starting to work with the sponsoring employer from July 2009 on a part-time basis. My relation and communication with the sponsoring employer is very good.
I am planning to join the sponsoring employer after my 2yr program and my employer is willing to accept me, but they cannot provide a future job offer as they cannot say if there will be a job opening.
I am sure I will be called in for an interview. I have exhausted my 6yrs of H1B and presently working on EAD.
I am little concerned for the interview, as I do not work full time and do not have a future job offer. But, since I am working part-time with the sponsoring employer, will that help to prove that 485 was a legitamate.
I would greatly appreciate if someone could please throw some info.
Thanks for your time.

Thank you, I looked through the blog but it didnt have any posts that could answer my queries. I am just trying to find out if it is ok to travel if I have a pending case with USCIS? Also, if my H4 goes out of status on 09/23/2010, then does that mean I have immediately leave the country? Any answers would help, thanks.

Is it Infopass or for approval of your 485?
Your public profile is not correct, please update it.
All the dates are 01/01/2005
Good luck.
Attended 485 Interview yesterday, everything went fine, the office told me that they need 120 days to review the file and will inform the decision after that. For me it looks like he basically collected all the documentation from me and will forward them to the Supervisor.

We are a few hours away from the biggest Awards ceremony in Hollywood and the world. So what part do Immigrants play in the biggest show on earth? Talent is the one universal passport, and Hollywood has always had a place for immigrants � from German maestro Fritz Lang, who headed west when Hitler's minister of propaganda pressured him to take over Germany's top studio, to Polish Roman Polanski, who directed Los Angeles' definitive film noir, "Chinatown," and Taiwan-born Ang Lee, who became the first nonwhite to win an Academy Award for directing for "Brokeback Mountain," his reinvention of the western.
As Hollywood tries to stave off commercial stasis, the industry has been undergoing another chapter in its love affair with foreign writers and directors, particularly those from the Far East and Latin America. The international box office now accounts for more than 60% of a film's box office gross.
Of course, in this age of globalization, it's unclear what it even means to be a Hollywood immigrant anymore. "It doesn't matter where you live," says Paramount Classics chief John Lesher. "We all talk on the phone. We see each other at film festivals. You can edit a movie in Brazil, and your editor can be in London, and you can put it together seamlessly in perfect time."
So for Oscars 2010 we will not able to determine again who is an immigrant and who is not, an honestly who cares. What we want to know is who will win tonight.
For as lacking in suspense as the acting races are, the contest for the biggest prize couldn't be any closer. It's David vs. Goliath here, with 'Hurt Locker' and 'Avatar' seemingly trading "favorite" status every other day.
Unless they somehow split the votes and the Weinstein-backed 'Basterds' revises more history with an upset, the Oscar will go to either the highest-grossing Best Picture winner ever, or the lowest (in half a century, anyway). Be warned: This one is flip-a-coin close. Enjoy the Oscars tonight!!!!

Congrates.. I know you are happy and why not..
Guys,
I just wanted to share some good news. I had two approved LCs. One with PD EB3 ROW March 05 and the other with ROW EB3 March 06. I had already filed the I-140 for the March 06 but not for the March 05 one. That was because of the way the job requirement was worded in that LC. The attorney was not sure if it would be approved. Anyway since the earlier PD became current in June I decided to take a chance and file I-140 for that earlier PD LC with PP. And what do you know, it got approved today and that allowes me to file for AOS this month. It was a bit of a gamble with money but it worked!!! :cool:

My husband is the primary and got his GC in July last year, under EB2. Upon suggestion, from my lawyer, I have made 1 info pass appointment (Oct 07) and raised 4 service tickets till now. All say they are processing.
My priority date is Aug 05. Now that the priority dates have moved. I have put one more service ticket but do not know what will happen. Upon again contacting my lawyer, suggested me to contact Congressman / Senator.
Anyone in the same pool ? Any suggestions ? I am in Pennsylvania state (Chester County).
Thanks.

I believe my situation is a lot similar to man-woman-and-gc except maybe that I am single. This is what I have achieved so far after sticking to Company A for 4.5 years (this one was pretty big in size; so didn't have to worry about any paperwork):
1) I-140 approved in August 2008 (total of 198 days till date i.e. March 5th 2009)
2) I-485 pending since July 2007 (USCIS receipt date of September 29 2007)
3) EAD valid till October 2010
4) H1-B valid till October 2010
5) PD: Feb 2007
However as a preemptive measure against any potential layoff from company A, I have started looking around. I am preparing a checklist of things that I have to inform the other companies (say company B) so that the transition is smooth. The 2 main things I can think of to talk about with any potential employer are:
1) I DEFINITELY want to maintain my H1-B; so they will have to transfer it. I will be pushing this to make sure I have the flexibility to get a dependent at any time
2) They will have to help me MAINTAIN my GC process. For example any minor changes in the position requirements to show that the job is similar or same. Thats one reason I am primarily looking at similar work profiles
I would GREATLY appreciate if someone from this thread can point me to any location or list out the things that I should be extremely careful about or notify to both my previous employer and the future employer to avoid any future pains in my GC process. A few things that I remember are as follows, but please provide more information that may be missed out here:
1) Do I have to ask Company B to apply for anything relating to my GC? I want to make sure that they know and agree to all costs associated with the paperwork? Dont want to end up paying from my pocket as I have heard in a few cases before
2) I believe since my I-140 is approved for more than 180 days or actually my I-485 being filed for more than 180 days, I am allowed to move, correct?
3) Since my I-140 is approved and I have an EAD, can USCIS/Company A cause it to be revoked? OR it doesn't apply to my case?
4) Do I need to ask Company A to maintain anything? Or just keeping good relations with them is enough :)
Thanks a lot to everyone in advance. Please let me know at your earliest convenience as you never know when opportunities come knocking at your door. Its better to be prepared ;)
