On May 18, 2009, the Texas Senate passed a bill requiring Sheriffs or any other officers in charge of a correctional facility, to determine the “citizenship status” of all convicted felons. The bill, S.B 2584, amends Chapter 2, Code of Criminal Procedure, by adding Article 2.245. If a defendant has been convicted of a felony under Title 5 (Offenses Against the Person), Penal Code, Title 6 (Offenses Against the Family), Penal Code, Title 7 (Offenses Against Property), Penal Code, Chapter 43 (Public Indecency), Title 9 (Offenses Against Public Order and Decency), Penal Code, Chapter 45 (Weapons), Title 10 (Offenses Against Public Health, Safety, and Morals), Penal Code, and Chapter 481 (Texas Controlled Substances Act), Health and Safety Code, the sheriff or officer will make a reasonable effort to determine the defendant’s “citizenship status”. If the sheriff has reason to believe the defendant is a foreign national, within 48 hours after the defendant is received at the correctional facility, the sheriff or officer will contact the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to verify the defendant’s immigration status. The bill becomes effective September 1, 2009.
The bill places “sheriffs or other officers in charge of a correctional facility” in the role of immigration agents. The sheriff or officer now has another duty, to determine whether defendants have lawful status. The bill is available at Texas Legislature Online (http://www.legis.state.tx.us/BillLookup/Text.aspx?LegSess=81R&Bill=SB2584).

Gurus,
I just received my EAD now. Though I am a 485 july filer, applied for EAD only in January.
My 6 th year H1 will come to end in Oct. Because 180 days since 485 filing is over, I want to use AC21 and change the Employer now, and I am thinking why to go again for H1. I have the EAD, and why not use it, though I will be joining another desi employer.
Does it seem the right thing to do? But everyine else I know changing the employer but again going for H1. Then why at all we have EAD.
I understand that if GC is rejected, and if we are on H1, we don't have to leave. But if GC is rejected, I really don't care. Even if I get the GC, I want to go to Mera Bharath Mahaan.
1. What are your thoughts on this?
2. One thing I am still not clear on is: If EAD renewal is delayed next year, and if I don't receive the approval in time (i.e. before the expiry of my current EAD) will I be out of status because no H1 and no EAD?
3. I am thinking there is no waiting period of 180 days etc from the EAD approval date to join another employer. Please correct me if this wrong.
4. If I use EAD, what is the status of my family without H4?

my GC application was done in 2001 via my mom who is a GC holder.
Will IV assist in legal non employment based GC application?
or is IV only active in employment based GC issues?
:confused:
Please read using the following link what IV Stands For. (IV is not a Law Firm) but is a group of Skilled Immigrants who are in process of immigrating, most if not all under employment categories. (EB) where sponsorship of petition/person is via an Employer.

Guys,
I'm in kind of a tricky situation.
I currently work for a consulting company who is sponsoring my GC.Our client has offered me a full time position and I was planning to use AC21 to switch over but better sense prevailed over me to continue with my current employer to avoid any issues in GC processing.Now my client is not willing to extend my contract.Given the current job market, I think it might take atleast a month or two for my employer to find me another project.
Just in case my I485 gets approved, can anyone please let me know if it is ok to be without pay (employer will not pay between projects) after the GC gets approved?Please advise.
Thanks.
Yes it is ok. If 485 is approved. Just dont use the unemployment benefit if you want to be a citizen. Btw, whats your EB category and PD?

Sec. 45. 2 Priority date of applicants.
"The priority date of an alien who is the beneficiary of a petition approved by the Service to accord status under section 124 of Public Law 101-649 shall be the filing date of the approved petition, as determined by the Immigration and Naturalization Service. The priority date of the spouse or child, accompanying or following to join such an alien shall be the priority date of the alien spouse or parent. "
As it sound to me It means PD of primary applicant will be the PD of spouse and child.

Hi,
My wife's AP is expiring in mid of October 2010. I am going to apply for her new AP before she travels to India in the 3rd week of July. Is there any issue if she comes back with the new AP? As the renewed AP will be received while she is in India. She will leave with her existing AP and enter back (lets say in Nov 2010) with newly renewed AP.
Please guide.

As all PD are now current, number of EAD filling will increase. So the processing time will be about 6 months for EAD.
My question is what will happen, if the PD retrogress before EAD is approved. Will it be still approved, or will have to wait till PD get current again.

You can use AC21 because, 180 days is completed and you have approved 140 from employer A.
The amendment is to continue your green card process in employer B.
Note : employer A is old company.
employer B is new company.
I hope some of the senior people in this group can give you more correct information. Consider this information as my analysis, because I am also in the same boat.
Thanks.

A 7th year extension is still possible, but the extension petition must be filed within 180 days of the LC approval. ( per current DOlL regulations, the LC expires after 180 days). My advice would be to have company B file to amend it's petition, requesting a validity date of 12/12.

I'm off to London for my H1B stamping. I was working for an Investment Bank that folded and I took up a job with a bank that has not taken TARP funds (not a US bank)
My I-129 was approved, however, it was approved before the new I-129 that asks whether the company accessed covered funds.
I just wanted to know whether I need to ask counsel in my firm to update the I-129 or should I just go ahead with the stamping?
Any other important documents I should take along? I was thinking of
a) letter from employer stating salary, start-date, position etc
b) letter from company stating that they did not receive TARP
anyone else on the same boat?
not in the same boat but in my opinion if you don't have to travel then lay local for a while given the restrictions being put in place with h-1 visas for financial institutions as a whole.

The reflection in the wet sand is good & colors are nice, but I agree with Don that there is too much sky for the scale of the figure. I had to look for the silhouette, because the clouds drew my eye to the left of center. A little saturation work would probably make the colors even more appealing. Just my opinion, your mileage may vary. ;)

No transit visa needed if you are using AP.
If you are using H1B and you dont have a valid stamp on your passport, then you need to verify.

Isn't it strange that even though Eb3-I PD Mar 04 is not current, they opened the file and sent RFE?
My PD is Mar 2005/EB3 and I was sent an RFE in Jul 2009 since my Birth certificate has initials and not the full name.
I read somewhere, because of the backlog, they do review the cases and in some cases even "approve" them. Once the visa number is available, GC will be issued for these cases.
