Immigration Visa Attorney Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
http://www.immigrationvisaattorneyblog.com/177934_bus_queue_v.jpgMajor news for relatives of legal permanent residents who have been patiently waiting for their petitions to become current. The Department of State reported in the September 2010 visa bulletin (http://www.travel.state.gov/visa/bulletin/bulletin_5113.html) that applicants who are spouses or children of greencard holders (filed as late as January 1, 2010) can now be processed for greencards. This is true for applicants from all countries except Mexico and the Dominican Republic, whose priority dates aren't far behind either: January 1, 2009.
What is a a "priority date," you ask? A "priority date" is a legal term of art that can be exceedingly hard to explain (especially in a blog), but I'll try. Let's start with basics. There is a quota on how many immigrants can come legally to the country per year. Imagine the quota like it is a long line of people lining up for a greencard. The people at the front of the line are those whose relative petitions were filed earliest, ie those with the earliest "priority date." A priority date is established on the date that your petition is received by the USCIS. Of course, the earlier your priority date, the sooner you can later ask for greencard status. Generally, priority dates always move forward, but these dates can also go backwards, and if applications aren't received by USCIS before this "retrogression" happens, applicants are back to the waiting game.
In the past month, the (F2A) priority date in the the family-based second preference category (ie for spouses and children of greencard holders) advanced from March 2009 to January 2010! This has made an incredible difference to those who have been waiting to be reunited with their spouses and children, rather than expecting a year or more of wait, this category of new immigrants can now start processing their greencard applications. If you would like assistance in making sure that your application can be made as quickly as possible, contact the attorneys at Fong & Chun, LLP before those dates retrogress. --ecf

Guru's pl help..
One of friends 485(primary) was pending and his wife's 485(derivative) also pending.
Both of them are on H1(different employers) and they both lay-off around the same time about 4 months ago. My friends employer has been running paychecks for him but his wife's employer canceled her H1.
Is she now on "AOS" status or out-of-status?
Is she has to file H4 as my friend's dependent?
Thanks in advance..
I hope experience people will guide you on this. In the mean time why dont you ask your friend to join and ask the question.

6800 Canadians immigrate to the US?? I wonder what is their motivation?
I am happy that no EB visa got wasted in 2007. The first time in the last few years?

I think you need to wait till you have EB2 numbers available or else you need to with draw the inter filing before your I-140 assumes the eb3 priority date.The withdrawl my trigger RFE.That is my openion.Gurus correct me.
Thanks for your reply. Do you think even when my visa number is available, they still put the file on hold until they approve the second 140? The second EB2 filed in December in TCS. So I need to wait long time to get it approved!!
My company attorney really dont know a lot about this issue. I guess I need to speak with a good attorney.
I hope we can get some help from people here.
Thanks.

Sorry to hear that...a simple mistake will cause your wait to become longer. I hope your lawyer or company compensated you for all the expenses you incurred during that period. It was truly frustrating.

Just got fired from my company.
I have concrete reasons to believe that it was an act of retaliation. I have documentary evidence for that.
I want to sue the company for damages. However, any such legal case must be fought on a pro-bono basis as I do not intend to spend my money on fighting this case.
If any lawyer is interested in taking up this case, please send me a private message/email with their phone numbers. I will provide further details on the phone.
Thanks all.

I believe the maximum time frame for an MTR is close to 6 months, but a lot of times it gets resolved sooner, with intervention from other agencies/groups.
You should look at this thread, and get in touch with IV (I believe you can do that via that thread), they might (read will) be able to help.

http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum105-immigrant-visa/1598322-what-happens-when-the-approved-i-140-gets-cancelled.html#post1966964
Priority Date: Jan 2006
Category: EB3
I-140 Approved: Aug 2006
I-485 Filled: July 2007
I have a new job offer and the employer is willing to sponsor my GC in EB2 category. The job requires BS+5 years experience which I have.
Question: If the old employer revokes my I-140 before the new employer files new PERM and I-140 under EB2 category, can I still port my EB3 priority date to EB2?

Kuyt,
As a general rule, the person or entity petitioning for (sponsoring) a person (beneficiary) for lawful US immigration status must be a legal resident, asylee, refugee or citizen of the US up to and including the point in time that the beneficiary is granted lawful status. There are possible exceptions to this rule. To provide advice regarding your situation more information is necessary:
What is the sponsor's current US immigration status? What is the nature of the potential criminal conviction? Is the person being sponsored the principal beneficiary of an immigrant petition or is s/he a derivative beneficiary because the "sponsor" is actually the principal beneficiary? Is the immigrant petition employment based? Family based?

ok.. do you mean editing an imported object in flash as if you were workin' in swift? if so.. you can't
as I said.. you can relatively edit the swf in flash.. let's say that flash doesn't know that the object it's in 3D.. for flash that's just another shape makin' your movie bigger.
importing your movie in swft format you'll have a little more control over it.. because the swift 3D flash importer separates highlights, shadows, objects, etc. to its own layer.
just in case you don't know how to import any file go to: File � Import
hope that helps :)

I am using swift 3D and am having trouble achieving my goal. I want on of my objects to go through 2 regular spins while the other object goes through a different regular spin. I have no problem ungrouping them or assingning the original spins. I then moved the keyframes to half of what they were defaulted to in my object that I want to go twice around. But now I cant copy the keyfames or add another spin onto the end. does anyone even know what I'm talking about let alone how to solve my problem? Thanks

I've read the first two chapters of the book. The first chapter provides an excellent insight into the history of Immigration. Although we had some knowledge of how things progressed in recent past, this book provides is an extremely relevant and detailed true description of the events, the bills in 1990s, 2006 and 2007, and so on.
For those of us who care about our green cards and large debate surrounding the issues affecting us, you will find this book learning and worthy experience.
