I dealt with Fragomen for last 7 years. I can say following about my experience �
I work for fortune 500 company and Fragomen was the law firm my company used until early 2007.
1> The emails, voice mails I sent to them used to disappear in a �black hole�. I had to wonder whether and when any response will come to an urgent, time sensitive question.
2> Many times after waiting a week or so for response I had to escalate the matter to my company�s legal department to talk to Fragomen. This used to work like charm, I used to get answers within hours.
3> I had to keep them reminding them about next step to take, as delay from their part had cost me years in the processing.
4> I think many of my co workers had similar experience and that is why my company finally switched to different law firm in Jan 07.
5> I hoped to never to deal with them again but �last week I got invoice from Fragomen for something the did for my case in Jan 2006! I don�t know why they sent it so late and why directly to me instead of my company. Well, this time I am going to wait until they call me to take any action on that invoice.
So they lost a Fortune 500 client because of their customer service and I think they will continue to loose more if they don�t change.I hope somebody from Fragomen reads this and fixes their system. To me I am very glad that my company left Fragomen !

Are they asking for $20 money order or a stamped envelope again? I won't be surprised if these people are pocketing the extra money.

In 2001 when I travelled to India, I paid 1200 to fly NWA. I paid 1000$ in 2008 on Asiana. Very good service. Although airline costs have increased, price of tickets havent increased proportionally.
Agree with the poster, treat airlines like a CAB. If you get good service, you are lucky.

Piyushpan, you are restating what I said and putting in extra things. All 3 categories need an immigrant petition. The advanced STEM degree + 3 years people need "special labor cert" if their grad degrees are not from the US. Please re-read what I wrote earlier.
Are you STEM exempt? if so, is your advanced degree from the US? If yes, you may not need labor cert. But remember, I am not an expert. Get a lawyer's advice.
Hi stucklabor,
That was a good analysis.
So to summarize what you are saying is the following(as per Frist's bill)
1 People who have advanced degrees and are presently working can apply for adjustment of status(I-485) even if they don;t have a labor or a pending I-140 but they will be subject to quota to get the final approval.
2Secondly for people who are presently studying and doing their MS they can directly apply for I-485 if they have a US job offer within one year after graduation but they will be subject to quota as well
3Thirdly there is the category which has MS/Phd and 3 yrs of related exp.
For this category they can directly apply for I-485 and no quota issues either.
My question is for all these 3 categories can you really directly apply for I-140 and I485 concurrently or do you have to have a certified labor certification or pending I-140 at the time of enact ment of the bill.
I am asking because i have an approved perm labor and I-140 and waiting to file for I-485..but my company is not doing well so i may have to restart the process all over again in the new company i join.But if i have to file only I-140 and I-485 to get the GC in new company and if this bill becomes law then that would be amazing as i don;t have to go through the labor cert process anymore..
Can you confirm what i'm interpreting is correct?

Please understand that your older PD is much more important because u would get ur gc that much earlier compared to 2005-07 people. Just because ppl are able to file 485 does not mean that they are going to take a number out of the quota for that year. The numbers are only taken during approval and hence they would all still be stuck in the same queue and you would have gotten an oppurtunity to file and possible get your GC too...take a deep breath, relax and think about this with a cool mind. I definitely do feel bad for you. My labor was stuck in BEC too and i left my company and joined a new one and restarted all over again. Been on H1 for seven years without ever getting any chance to file 485 until now...
Most people showing their cool wisdom still not getting the point. A BEC person with Feb 2005 PD may not be able to file for another 2 years while a PD 2007 person will be enjoying EAD during that time. In my dictionary this is injustice. And that's why i was kinda happy when they updated the July bulletin, now I'm not really happy even if my company has already filed my 485/EAD on july 2. I'm still wishing (and i'll be honest) USCIS come up with a reason/regulation/rule that will delay EAD for everyone until BEC people are able to file 485 OR in Oct they retrogress only till March 2005.
P.S. if you are superstitious, you want to know this: most of my relatives/freinds call me "Black Tongue" because usually when i say something unpleasent it happens. e.g. i told my wife last month that i don't believe everyone is able to file 485, something will go wrong and everyone will be disappointed. (when everyone expects something it does not happen- contrarian theory)

I am preparing I131 (AP) renewal application for me and my family. For my son, who is 8 years old, do I need to fill "Part 9. Signature of Person preparing the form, if other than the applicant" since I am preparing this form? OR can I just sign Part 8 on-behalf of my son?
G-28 form says it needs to be filled in case if you use Attorney or Representative. Just wondering whether I need to fill a G-28 form for the above AP renewal application for my son since I am filling Part 9 in his application.
Can somebody clarify? Thanks for your help.

Folks, I got the response from AF.
This is what I sent them:
This is AF response:
Hope they treat everybody equally!!!
Problems will not go away. Such incidents may happen elsewhere or in the same place.
If Air France was genuine they should have made everyone stay in the same place or atleast talk to theie department of immigration and arrange a temporary supervised visa and take all people to the hotel.
They just did not care

Someone please explain this to me,
The labor certification for a EB visa is based on a job/position requirement.
What is the intent of EB based GC?
How long is the person expected to the job for which the LC was approved?
Does that clock start when the LC was approved or when the i485 was approved?
If there is an drive for this effort, I will contribute.

So are you suggesting that everyone in EB3 ROW is unskilled professional?
No that is a suggestion that you are making ...
I am saying that every one in EB3 India/China/ROW is applying for a job that requires lesser skill than EB2 India/China/ROW
It is the job ....not the individual and not the country

If you friends spouse was on H1 then i think her current status with USCIS would be H1.
Since she is not working with the current employer she need to do the following things to void H1 status.
a) Start using EAD to work.
b) Use AP to re-enter the country.
c) Get H4 status change.
Otherwise her current status would be in H1.it could create some problem if beyond couple of weeks.

I have got an RFE for 485 application. USCIS is asking me for Employment Letter, Paystubs and W2 for the employer I NEVER worked. (I have typed exact message below)
*
This is my situation-
I worked for 'Employer #1' from Jan-2000 to Jan-2005
Then I started working with 'Employer #2' from Jan-2005 to present. Employer #2 filed my H1/Labor/140/485. I am still working for Employer #2
*
However, I thought of changing job in 2006 and 'Employer X' offered me a job and sponsored my H1 and it got approved too, but I changed my mind and decided to continue with my current employer (Employer #2) and I am still with Employer #2. Please note my latest H1B was sponsored by “Employer X”, but I never worked for this Employer.
*
Please advice-
1) What should I send to USCIS? As I don’t have (can’t get) Employment Letter, Paystubs and W2 for “Employer X”
2) Would you consider this as simple case or complicated?
3) Should I hire attorney? (I self filed my 485 in July-2007)
*
*
This is the exact text - (changed Employer names)
Service records indicate that you were granted an H1-B nonimmigrant worker classification for employment from DEC 11, 2006 to DEC 11, 2009 for “Employer X"-. However, according to the G-325a submitted with your application, you had only worked for "Employer #1" from Jan-2000 to Jan-2005 and for the "Employer #2" from Jan-2005 to the present. Please provide evidence that you were employed with “Employer X". Such evidence may include copies of: employment letter, pay stubs or w2s
Thank you for your time and help.
Ask your attorney to write a letter in response to RFE and explaining the situation you never took the job with employer X though the H1B transfer or new is approved, this will clear the query of USCIS. One catch, you should have maintained a continuous employment with #2 and demonstrate the same to USCIS. Good luck!
Note H1 to L1, H4 to H1, L1 to H1 is completely different, it is change of status - H1 to H1 is not change of status, so there is no question that you recent h1 is valid and past is invalid. Get an attorney, Good weekend
