Hunton Immigration and Nationality Law Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
On July 1, 2010, the Vital Statistics Office of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico began issuing new, more secure Puerto Rican birth certificates to US Citizens born in Puerto Rico. As of October 1, 2010, all certified copies of Puerto Rican birth certificates issued prior to July 1, 2010, will no longer be valid. Accordingly, the Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) issued a press release providing guidance to US employers with regard to the I-9 process. For new employees, employers may continue to accept all Puerto Rican birth certificates through September 30, 2010; after that date, only the new Puerto Rican birth certificates (issued on or after July 1, 2010) we be acceptable for I-9 purposes. Therefore, as of October 1, 2010, employers must pay close attention to the issuance date of Puerto Rican birth certificates presented for I-9 purposes.
For existing employees, there is no need to re-verify the employment authorization of employees who previously presented pre-July 1, 2010, Puerto Rican birth certificates. Federal Contractors subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulation E-Verify clause may continue to accept all Puerto Rican birth certificates prior to October 1, 2010, but beginning on that date, only the new Puerto Rican birth certificates issued on or after July 1, 2010, will be acceptable. Federal Contractors may not ask for the newer version during I-9 reverification of those individuals who previously presented the older version of the Puerto Rican birth certificates.
The USCIS memo can be found here (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=45e3285ca77fa210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCR D&vgnextchannel=68439c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1 RCRD).

Hi Milind,
Thanks for the info. Is there any way of notifying USCIS, if the new job from existing employer is EB2 level (I mean a promotion to senior level) so that the application is processed quickly!

No documents needed. They can visit you anytime during the 10 yr validity of the visa. The only condition is that they have to leave the country before the date on I-94 expires.
Dear All Immivoices,
My parents have 10 years multiple visa. It was issue in year 2007. They have visited USA
before two years. If they want to come again, is there any document I need to send them?
Thanks in advance to all of you.

Here's the press release for the new Leica Digilux two.
http://www.dphoto.us/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=69&mode=thread&order=0&thold=0
Funny you post this, I actually had a conversation this morning stating that I have digicam lust for the first time. Wow that puppy looks nice. Guess I always wanted a lieca ;)
While we are talking about digicams, maybe we should make a digicam forum as a resource for others? just a possibility.

They do random inspection on applications. Some people who have no work permit are being inspected if they are working illegally and some are found to be.....even if they do not accept pay or just saying they are volunteers.....
I guess you're being inspected. If you're not working without a work permit, you should be ok.

Interesting situation. Technically you will be better off on H1 (since you have that approved for 3 years). I would do that if I were you.
Only issue I can think off is, f your husband (Iam assuming primary 485 applicant), would move over to EAD (after Sep-07), would that impact your H1 in any way(I don't think it should).
I'll let someone more knowledgable answer that

They are not always up to date on their processing times.
Evidently.... I guess I can't rely on it too much for predicting approval of the other applications. I heard of a similar situation too, the receipt date is very close to mine and it got approved today.

Hello --
Do any of you know what the A# is on the I-485 / I-130 / I-765 etc is for people who have previously held an F-1 / OPT-related A#? I have seen previous forums stating that OPT A#s begin with a "1" which connotes an OPT status; however I am not clear whether we are supposed to use that same A# on our I-485 and other GC-related documents, or leave that space blank.
Sorry this is redundant but previous posts don't seem to clarify a definitive answer to this question. Many thanks in advance.

Hello All,
My wife's AP was sent out on NOV13th according to online status and we didnt receive it till now and I called the USCIS today and the rep we didnt receive it back as undelivereable & once its once out of our office its not their concern & told re-applying is the only option.
Issue?: My wife went to INDIA and she is on L1 and I was wondering when I re-apply her AP here, can she enter while her AP is pending approval ?
her L1 is valid till June 2010.
What are our options, please advise.
If she has a valid L1 stamping in passport and she is still working for the employer she can enter without problems.

AILA provided a very important update from the State Department, we wish to share with our readers.
The Department of State has issued comprehensive new policy guidance on the use of DNA testing in the visa application process. This new guidance is set forth in a new set of extensive Notes to 9 FAM 42.44.
In this new guidance, the State Department declares DNA technology to be the only acceptable non-documentary method for proving a biological relationship. The preferred specimen collection technique for DNA testing is by buccal (cheek or mouth cavity) swab.
According to the Department, DNA testing is expensive, complex and time consuming and thus should be recommended only if no other credible proof of the claimed relationship exists. Consular officers should treat DNA testing as a last resort: all other possible methods for confirming the existence of a biological relationship must be exhausted before recommending this course of action. Even then, DNA testing may only be recommended, but never required by the consular officer.
Consular officers may recommend DNA testing solely to prove a relationship; they may never recommend DNA testing in an attempt to disprove a relationship. Only DNA test results reporting a 99.5 percent or greater degree of certainty as proof of a biological relationship between a parent and child may be accepted in visa cases.
The Department clarifies that consular officers adjudicating Form I-130 Alien Relative petitions (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1132137.html)are not authorized to approve the petition if DNA test results are the sole evidence of the claimed biological relationship. Such cases are not "clearly approvable" per the provisions of 9 FAM 42.41 N4.2-3; accordingly, they must be forwarded to USCIS for adjudication. Parenthetically, USCIS is authorized to approve I-130 petitions supported solely on DNA testing.

My friend's on her 6th year H1B and it will expire on Sept 10, 2010. A PERM labor was filed and the Labor went into an audit, responses were sent immediately.
If she transfer her H1B to new company.
1. Can she ask for 1 year extension based on her pending labor? Does she need to wait till the labor gets approved?
She can get one year if the LC is pending for 365 days, as previous poster said. However, the new company needs to be able to file a new PERM immediately, so she can get an 8th year extension. It is very unlikely that the old company will keep the permanent residence process going once she changes jobs.
2. Can she use Premium Processing for H1 transfer?
Yes, but if she's maintaining status she can change employers on filing the new H-1B. The company doesn't need the expense of PP.

Since there is a mad rush of i485 applications , USCIS is going to do lottery to select applications for approval.Rest of them will be rejected.
What's the source. If you are trying to pull a prank, then let me the first one to tell you that it is N-O-T-F-U-N-N-Y

I congratulate everybody for getting the opportunity to file 485.I am truely happy for u guys.
I am one of the very few people who can not apply for 485 as I have just changed my company and labour yet has to be filed.
I just wanted to to know Is it still possible that they will bring some kind of amendment(From CIR bill) which wouldn't allow me to extend my H1 Visa after 6 years?.I am so scared when I read on numberusa that some amendments are coming back to vote.Are we really in trouble?.
I just need some lodgical reasons that it won't happen.
I know everybody is busy but don't forget about people like us.
No such proposal will be coming for another next two years for minimum. In the meantime, file your labor and and while you wait for approval, prepare your exp letters so that u r ready to file on day one after your labor is approved. bol
