its kinda interesting why there is no appointment available sooner. I am in florida and i heard frmo my attorney on Thursday.. and called 3 doctors Friday morning.. all three said come down right now. Finally went to one of them the same day in the afternoon.. he did some blood work.. gave me MMR and TD.. and did TB test. I want back today morning and got my all the reports.
As far as I know, we need to get only one blood work done.. doctor can test both HIV and Syph in the same one.
There are places (even though not remote) , you cant get appointments for weeks. There must be different reasons for that. I don't think any one answered the OP question:
What blood tests need to be done (apart from HIV and Siphyllis)?

i used to think based on I-131 instructions that, if we leave before AP aprroval, its considered abandoning 485. but my lawyer clarified that, thats true only if u dont have any oher status than AOS. if i leave before AP approval i can use H1 stamp to get back in and use AP for travel next time.

We(My wife and I) recently (July 2009) got our FPs done. immediately after that our cases got transferred from TSC to VSC.
PD: Feb 14, 2005.
I thought VSC is not processing any I-485 applications. Is anyone else in the same status ?
Also, I have to apply for EAD and AP.. Do I apply in TSC or VSC ?:confused:
Please help! :(

Our dear friend Mahesh Mahadevan has left us as of Saturday, April 10th, hours before his 23rd birthday. Mahesh was a second year Ph.D. student in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of California, Irvine and an alumnus of the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras. Mahesh was a truly wonderful person with a bottomless heart, always willing to help everyone out without hesitation. His passion for life and people has inspired several of us to explore the world. He was genius in his own right; his thirst for knowledge and willingness to share it with us has made us better individuals. We miss him terribly.
Now Mahesh has to find his way home to Cochin, Kerala in India. It is estimated that the entire process (mortuary, embalming, airfare, and funeral services) will cost several thousand dollars, which, as we all are well aware of, is forbiddingly expensive. It is time for us to come together and show our support. Please help Mahesh on his journey home and beyond. We, Surabhi--the Indian Students Association at UC, Irvine--request you to donate any amount possible by clicking on this link below. All funds will be transferred to Mahesh's parents in India. In the event of surplus funds, we will institute a trust and establish scholarships in his memory for under-priveleged yet brilliant young minds.

All,
I posted this text at some Immigration Portal threads today to address concerns that IV is only focused on retrogression. Please feel free to edit and post at other forums or other threads on Immig Portal.
I. IV MEMBERS AT EVERY STAGE
� We have members at each stage of the process: labor certification backlog, retrogression backlog, USCIS backlog. Some of our most active members have not got their labor certification.
� Members who are further along have not forgotten the length of delay and pain of the previous step. We are ALL really in the same boat.
II. WE EMPHASIZE THE EFFECT OF CUMULATIVE DELAYS
� The most devastating problem for EB green card applicants is the cumulative effect of delays at each stage. Each delay in isolation may even be bearable (only in theory) but when you pile one on top of the other it is unconscionable. We emphasize this in our new presentation (out shortly).
� When we meet with lawmakers or talk with other organizations in the coalition we give personal examples and it is this fact of delay piling on top of delay that most of them are shocked by.
III. DOL-BEC & USCIS BACKLOGS ARE ALREADY SUBJECT TO CONGRESSIONAL & PRESIDENTIAL MANDATES
� DOL-BECs were created as a result of considerable protest and intervention by Congress.
� USCIS Backlog Processing is also subject to Presidential mandate � for 6 months processing by September 2006. Congressional hearing transcripts show that members of Congress are well aware of these issues, even the problems with repeat fingerprinting etc.
� So both DOL-BEC and USCIS Backlog Processing are at the stage of implementing bureaucratic changes, implementing Congressional and Presidential mandates.
� We *are* pressing for transparency and better implementation at both these stages, as well as for 3 year extensions of H-1Bs, EADs and Advance Paroles for those who are stuck in the Green Card process instead of the current one year.
IV. RETROGRESSION HAS BEEN TOTALLY IGNORED BY CONGRESS & THE PRESIDENT
� In contrast to DOL-BEC and USCIS Backlog Processing, Congress has never addressed the issue of Retrogression.
� So the Retrogression problem is a systemic, policy problem.
� It will affect all of us eventually, no matter what stage we are at. And it is only going to get worse, and the delay at this stage is the longest of all. Even if cutoff dates move forward, there is nothing to stop them from moving back again once USCIS starts processing visas faster (see posts on how visa cutoff dates are determined).
� It took a tremendous amount of effort to get Congressional and Presidential mandates to do something about DOL and USCIS backlogs and it will take a tremendous amount of effort to get Congressional action on Retrogression.
In summary, we urge you to get involved with Immigration Voice (http://www.immigrationvoice.org) no matter at what stage of the green card process you are. We are all in the same boat. Immigration Voice is getting your issues heard wherever it goes. We are totally committed to getting the job done - this is not a half-hearted group of people. Look at what we have done in just 40 days.
With Comprehensive Immigration on the anvil and with PACE bringing the issue of American Competitiveness and the need for skilled and qualified immigrants, there can be no better time to highlight our problems. Legislative changes are necessary for us and the only way that can happen is if you get involved.
RECENT IMMIGRATION VOICE ACTIVITIES:
� Signing with Quinn Gillespie & Associates (http://www.quinngillespie.com/) who will work with us to (a) get corporate sponsorship
(b) get access to key policymakers
(c) craft an effective legislative strategy
(d) design a media strategy
� Meeting Lawmakers
� Coordinating with other groups like Compete America
� Getting the word out in the community
� Setting up of the organizational and resource infrastructure including the website and forums for discussion
� A tremendous amount of behind the scenes efforts to improve the quality of our materials and message.

my fiancee has F-1 visa too, but we are getting married next month so excited. should i ask my employer to apply for us the same time?
Yes, if she wants to change from F-1. She might want to stay in F-1 status as long as she can, especially since she can get work authorization.
i don't know how is this work, and how much is the f-1 to h-4 status change costs.
That depends on the lawyer, Filing fees are $300
if i get denied, she will be denied too
Yes
but if she gets denied, will i get denied?
No, not necessarily
in other word, is filing both visa same time affect the chance of getting approved?
I've done thousands of H-1B and H-4 cases filed together. It's very common.
u guys know the odds of getting approved on h1b from non profit organization these days?
If the job meets the H-1B criteria, and you do also, you should be fine.

I want to answer to your question (or rather help you to get one)....
just want to make sure we are referring to same link to the PACE bill etc.
Pl. tell me if you are reading from this link
http://www.compete.org/pdf/PACE_section_by_section%20-%20final%20.pdf
or if it is something else pl. post it here.
Also, it would be great if you point me to a specific section of the bill that you are particularly interested in knowing about.
About your other question:
A general answer is: yes, you may contact your own senators, and congressman (as they are most likely to read your mail). However, I must warn you that one person alone doing anything is not going to be that effective. It is much better if you team up with a group like ours (Immigration Voice) to make your voice heard. IV is presently focussing on the comprehensive immigration reform bill, but if you present your case here we'll see if and what can be done.

here is another questions I need to ask, if anyone can plz get them answered it will be great.
1. There was I-94 attached which was also lost. Recently, we transferred H-4 to iGate, so Uscis sent i-94 with approval notice, would that work or we need to get apply form 102 for replacement? Also, is there a way to notify uscis that i-94 is lost and will reapply once we get to ?
It's important to keep the arrival i-94 document. You can use the following document to get the I-94 from Department of Homeland Security.

If I do not block my checks my worry is that it might create duplicate cases.
Yes in my second set of application I did mention the reason why I am filing the second time
Your attorney is correct. Stop Payment can be a bad spot on you. It is like giving somebody phony money. Receiver think he/she is receiving something, but it proves to be nothing. Everything else, e.g. writing to USCIS for withdrawing your second app etc. or otherwise hoping that they will reject it, is ok

I have Canadian GC since 2.9 years ago. I have to move to Canada in the next 2-3 months in order to maintain it. Should I move? I have stable job in US. I mostly thought I would have received my US GC by now. Is there any legal implications if I don't move. Do I just have to mail my canadian GC back to canadian consultate?
It is your call.
If you think your job is quite stable and you would be OK for next 1-2 years and your PD is close it is worth staying here because if US economy is bad I don't think Canadian Economy would do very good either.
Otherwise you should try to maintain canadian GC. As they say a bird in hand..... If you can find a job in canada life there is good. I was in a similar dilemma as you last year but by God's grace got my GC in time.
Some people told me last year that Canadians are not very strict about enforcing 3 year presence rule. Some people were admitted even after they stayed out for more than 3 years after landing.
But today I read on this forum that they strict these days.

My son is a US citizen/passport holder and we are planning on applying for a PIO for him at the SFO consulate. I have the following questions on how he could use the PIO card
1. How can he use the PIO card to enter and exit India?
a. Does he simply show the PIO card, US passport to enter and exit India?
2. Incase if the PIO card processing takes a lot of time I know that he can apply for visa. I was wondering anyone has experience on how visa could be applied if PIO processing takes a long time at the SFO consulate.
a. Do they return the PIO application and its supporting documents before visa could be applied?
b. Should a new visa application+visa supporting documents need to be resent for getting a Indian visa?
