Thanks to all who responded. I really appreciate your time. Your replies have really been useful. It seems like one can maintain both H-1B and I-485 adjudicating status simultaneously. Some employers probably go by the policy of continuing H-1B status. Only thing for me is that I will have to go for visa stamping which I really did not want to as it is such a hassle and takes a lot of time.

All,
We had always intended these forums to be mainly focused on IV's agenda and legislative strategy.
Up till now, IV's agenda has mainly been discussed in the "Green Card Retrogression" forum. We are creating a forum where we will only discuss those issues -- "IV Agenda and Legislative Strategy"
Example Topics:
Forum: IV Agenda and Legislative Strategy
IV Fundraising, News Articles on CIR issues, Current Bill Text Analysis
Forum: Green Card Retrogression
Visa Bulletin, assorted I-485 issues
I would also like to gently remind you that IV does not condone or endorse any discussions of methods to outgame the system -- by filing paperwork that does not match the facts etc. Several members have drawn our attention to posts that come close to crossing this line.

Not to derail this discussion ...but the post below is classic hinglish !! :D
When did processing time became on or after your Receipt Date: 06/06/07 and your Notice Date: 06/15/2008.
Is it because file misplaced - too many followups (3 SRs, Infopass, letters, calling IO)? At lease people have been able to find whether name check is cleared on not - could you figureout that? If not, I think, there is reason to be concerned.
Try simple question - name check is cleared or not?

Is anyone here familiar with Canadian PR landing process. What does it mean
to "land"?
I got approved PR papers from Canada. They gave a deadline to land in Canada
before which I am planning to go to Canada. I work in US now and plan to return after landing. How many days does it take to complete this process.
Suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

I just applied for my little one yesterday.
fingers crossed!
Can't believe getting usa passport for my little one required two page application and just the birthcert, But for PIO they need everything in the world!
Yeah, because you applied for US passport for a US citizen :D, whereas PIO was permanent entry card for a foreign national. Naturally more documentation is required where foreign nationals are involved, look at your own green card process :D

Hi Amulchandra,
I am on the same boat with you. I am on H4 and is continuously exploring all possibilities that would enable me to work. I wonder how volunteering for work in one's field would be illegal. You will not be paid hence there will not be papertrails, taxes or any documents that can be traced to you working (illegally?). Besides, how will they know it, if there's no additional income in your bank accounts coming from your wages or salary? Isn't it? If the illegals could work in the shadows w/o getting penalized, hell, they even would have a chance to get a blue card in the future enabling their spouses to work. There's a very little chance that the USCIS or ICE would penalize you. Don't know even if they would bother give time to it.
Even if they would bother, you are highly educated, could hire a lawyer and easily explain it to court. Your current immigration lawyer is just too paranoid and is unreasonable.
Go for it man!

USCIS sends out three copies of the approval notice Form I797 A: Sent to the attorney on record, Form I797 B sent to the Petitioner and Form I797C sent to the beneficiary. Check the lower right hand corner of the notice you received for the form number. The B and C versions are courtesy copies. That is why if you look at the "documents needed" section for stamping of H1B in any of the Consulates or VFS sites they typically mention "original Form I797A"
Hope this helps.
Thks for the Info..I am aware only I-797 has two parts..

Depending on where you were located in the US, it might be a good idea to enter the country coming from a neighboring country (Canada, Mexico) with your green card in hand.
In any case dont travel with too many luggages ...
Let us know how it went.
Good luck !

Its true that Consulting companies take a good part of your BILL-RATE but other stuffs may not be THAT bad.
I'm working thru such a small company for last 3 years and this is my 4th client... 3 of the 4 clients were provided by them, no bench so far. They dont give me BillRate share but we work with a Negotiated Resonable salary based on the Cost of Living of the City where i work/consult for.....
Discuss the Terms and put in email as well as Paper before Joining - Be on Top of them even if they want to change a single spelling in that Terms Paper. You got to be very tough , aggressive as well as resistive with them for any changes they want to script against you.
I have been working for state government from past 3 years (approx) under a non-caped H1b with EB2 2006 labor cleared and i-140 pending and 485 filed in aug.
Considering the constraints of non-cap h1b , I asked a consultant to apply for my caped h1b in april. At that time 485 was not current and according to my estimation my PD would not have become current for 2-3 years more, so I thought of moving with a caped h1b to private firm. You all know what happened in july regarding 485.
Recently my caped H1b got approved. Since I have already filed for 485, I have decided to be with present firm for 6 months then think of changing using the new caped h1b and AC21 to private firm through consultant.
But I have heard that when one works for consultant, its easy not to get paid for certain months during project transition or while looking for project. With the result�.its affects the H1b status. Now that my immigration status is clean, is it worth moving to consultant and risk my clean status�??? Is working for consultant a big compromise against immigration status�??? Also i need to look for a job identical to my labour. I� m basically into web and database application in sql server 2005 , asp.net with ajax. What�s the market for these skill looks like�????
Any words of wisdom�.

Hey,
My I-140 was filed in June 2006. It was based on the LC Substitution from the same company..but filed with the copy of the LC. It has been still pending for more than a year with TSC. Last inquired with USCIS in Jan 07, USCIS came back to us and said it requires an additional review. But the LUD remain the same as June 2006.
My lawyer said she will another inquiry with USCIS in August 2007 as 6 months waiting period will be over from last inquiry....
In my case, I never received the original PERM LC. Perhaps it got lost in the mail or they forgot totally about the issue that's why he had to file with a copy.

I hate the fact, we let ourselves be discussed amongst the ILLEGAL immigration pool. We are not here illegally, there is no reason we should call this "GC for sale". We are helping the govt. by not just words but with our $$$.
We are here legally , paying taxes, paying rents etc. This fee is meant to speed up processing. No other terminology should be used at IV. Let anti-immigrants talk what they want.
Please remember, at any point there are always opposing forces at work. For those anti-immigrants I have no time or energy to ponder on there xenophobic reservations.
Lets not forget, America was and continues to prosper because of hardworking and honest immigrants..

vacation or telecommuting for longer duration (not sure about max # of days) is considered as abandoning AOS.
You need not be here in US until the GC is approved. There is no abandoning if he has valid offer and some way of re-entry like valid AP or H1.
