I have copied the information from the link below. It clearly states DOS checks background overseas and DHS ensures the person entering is the same person who was issued the Visa. So, my point is that DHS is only responsible for conducting background checks for EB/N400 applicants only. Anyway we will know later today. Hopefully something good news after the chaos in the stock market:)
"In many cases, US-VISIT begins overseas, at the U.S. consular offices issuing visas, where visitors� biometrics (digital fingerscans and photographs) are collected and checked against a database of known criminals and suspected terrorists. When the visitor arrives at the port of entry, we use the same biometrics � digital fingerscans � to verify the person at our port is the same person who received the visa."
Isnt this already in place in the form of US Visit (http://www.dhs.gov/xtrvlsec/programs/editorial_0525.shtm)

Gurus,
Please help me guiding in my situation:
I have been on H1B for about 2 years, I came through desi consulting company. As usual there were no bench salary and very irregular payment during project duration also, I was not paid for about 50% of time.
I had switched to another employer couple of months back, My H1B approval with new employer is still pending. recently I had got letter from Department of Labor (DOL). They are trying to investigate my previous employer if he is complying with american competitiveness and workforce improvement act(ACWIA) of 1998.
They had sent me a questioner about previous employer about salary being paid etc.
I am not sure what should I be doing in this situation:
If I reply with all facts this might effect my pending H1B status for new employer.
If I write in a way that thing were as per LC then I am lieing, which I am not comfortable with.
Third Option could be that I do not respond at all
[They had mentioned that I am NOT required to respond.]
I am seeking help from experts and forum members, what should be I doing in this situation so that my H1B transfer do not get jeopradasided.
Thanks
Saurav

Here are the relevant parts of the transcript (http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0605/03/acd.01.html) :
COOPER: Rising gas prices aren't the only thing causing heartburn this election year. Immigration reform is close behind. The battle at the border has spread into the heartland and across the country. Some politicians already paying the price. Ahead, we'll get a reality check from the best political team around.
Plus, a brazen break in the border. They've actually poured concrete here and they've formed steps which makes it easier for whoever was bringing drugs into the United States, actually climb up through the tunnel.
Tunnel built by drug runners. We showed it to you back in January. Now there's a new development in the story. What's going to happen to the tunnel? We'll bring you the latest next on 360.
(COMMERCIAL BREAK)
COOPER: Those pictures, of course, from Monday's massive immigration demonstrations. Hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants and their supporters in the streets. They wanted to show their economic power. They hoped that would translate into political power. But now some critics are saying it's actually had the opposite effect, creating a backlash. And in at least one city so far the issue has already cost a Mayor his job. Here's CNN's Candy Crowley.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
CANDY CROWLEY, SENIOR POLITICAL CORRESPONDENT: This is where day laborers, mostly immigrants, legal and not, hang out looking for work in Herndon, Virginia. It may not look like an election issue, but last night, voters threw out their mayor and two city council members who pushed for the day labor center. This is the new mayor.
STEVE DEBENEDITTIS, HERNDON VIRGINIA MAYOR-ELECT: Welcome immigrants, but they have concerns, valid concerns, about illegal immigration.
CROWLEY: Fewer than 3,000 people voted in Herndon. Just about 24 hours after the nation watched hundreds of thousands of immigrants, legal and not, demonstrate across the country.
FRANK SHARRY, EXEC. DIR., NATIONAL IMMIGRATION FORUM: I've never known a politician who wasn't attracted to a large crowd. And these have been some pretty large crowds.
CROWLEY: True enough, it was evidence that the immigrant community can galvanize itself. The question is, to what end? Congress is reading the tea leaves.
SEN. HARRY REID, (D) MINORITY LEADER: I personally believe very, very fervently that they have helped, helped picture this issue in the minds of the American people in a positive fashion.
CROWLEY: Tea leaf reading is not an exact science, particularly in an election year where frankly democrats would be better off if the republican-led congress did nothing.
SHARRY: I think the congress is going to have a lot of explaining to do if they don't end this session with a good comprehensive bill.
CROWLEY: Republicans desperate for something to tout as accomplishment, anxious not to alienate core conservative voters, are afraid the demonstrations harden conservative opposition to anything that smacks of a break for illegals. SEN. MEL MARTINEZ, (R) FLORIDA: I believe at the end of the day we'll see that it really had a negative effect and it backfired on those of us who are trying to move forward something that is comprehensive but yet in middle course.
CROWLEY: Senator Mel Martinez of Florida says since Monday's demonstrations calls to his office have run 10 to 1 against his bill providing tougher border security and a pathway to citizenship after hurdles are jumped.
JOHN FUNU, WALL STREET JOURNAL: The boycott has so heated up the measure that we're not going to have any bill this year. It's simply poisoned the well.
CROWLEY: As Washington lawmakers struggle with the political weight of all those demonstrations --
SEN. JOHN CORNYN, (R) TEXAS: It wasn't clear exactly what the message was. And I think in some ways it tended to polarize people.
CROWLEY: Herndon, Virginia, is already discussing changes to ensure the day labor center cannot be used by illegals. The problem with tea leaves is, you never know which ones to read. Candy Crowley, CNN, Washington.
(END VIDEOTAPE)
COOPER: Well, earlier I spoke with Candy Crowley along with John Roberts and John King, part of the best political team on television.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
COOPER: John Roberts, what are the prospects for getting immigration reform this year?
JOHN ROBERTS, SR. NATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: That would depend on who you talk to. Some republicans who want to put a good spin on this say that it's possible that they can get it done. It might even be possible that they could get it done by the August recess. Other people including the White House are much more pessimistic about it saying they don't expect anything to happen until after the November election.
COOPER: Candy, I mean could these demonstrations really have backfired and derailed a compromised deal, even among those who support some sort of reform?
CROWLEY: Absolutely. I mean, the problem really is, first of all, the politics are that the democrats would rather have the issue at this point because it's an election year than a bill. The republicans would like a bill because it will be an accomplishment, but they have problems with their conservative core. And the people we talked to said listen, the demonstrations backfired. It left -- people looked and said well they're not working, and they're out demonstrating. You know, fair or not, the conservative core sort of toughened up. It seemed to have hardened both sides of this debate. COOPER: John King, a lot of talk, too about all the Mexican flags out in the street. Obviously there were a lot of American flags where organizers really tried to get American flags out there. But that certainly angers a lot of people. What are you hearing from the people you talked to in Washington?
JOHN KING, CHIEF NATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: Well, that tactic, as Candy just noted, there is a backfiring from these demonstrations. And that tactic in particular has emboldened conservatives. Remember the key question here is, if they can get a bill through the senate, can they then get the house to embrace a more liberal immigration policy? The house members, most are from safe conservative districts. And back home in their districts they didn't feel all that much pressure to begin with. And what they are saying now is that this sends an anti-American signal.
If these people want legal status in the United States, they should be holding American flags, they should be demonstrating for rights in the United States not celebrating Mexico or El Salvador. So to that degree, while the masses in the streets certainly showed the emerging political power and potential political power of the Latino vote, that symbol has helped the opponents of this measure especially in the house. It has simply stiffened the resolve of conservatives who say no to any new broad immigration reform.
COOPER: Rising gas prices aren't the only thing causing heartburn this election year. Immigration reform is close behind. The battle at the border has spread into the heartland and across the country. Some politicians already paying the price. Ahead, we'll get a reality check from the best political team around.

I have the same question. I have my labor approved (pre-approved labor) and I-140 approved. My PD is Nov-04. I don't have a copy of my approved I-140 and my company does not give it to me.
If I wish to change companies, how do I proceed - Is there a circumvent process?

How about instead of survey we put it as a sticky note to announce if someone have information that in his/her place is hiring. With that way we can help all people who got laid off and this site can be a networking website.
Please give me green if you like my idea :D

I did try to get into it so that i can start an effort to file a lawsuit but it seems after spending couple of hundread dollars to talk to lawyers I came across that federal courts have no power to do anything against USCIS if it is ineffeciency due to beurocracy delays.
So Technically you can file a lawsuit even as an individual but then Federal Court wont be able to held USCIS accountable as USCIS will give excuse as beurocracy delays and lack of resources and that lands on Congress so Federal court will have to get Congress involved.
Very Sad ... but its true ... this is a clean example how unfair this country is and it still preaches other countries on this planet about liberty, justice blah blah ...
its not illegal to port. Labor substitution was legal until they abolished.
EB3 to EB2 to EB1, is perfectly legal and is not like labor substitution. Why are you ppl jealous, just because you have EB2. A lot of ppl including myself had our cases filed in EB3, because of incompetent attorney's. Its not like someone is jumping the line, these guys have been waiting patiently in there EB3 queue and if they can upgrade why not?
Pls focus on the real issue of the country based quota. Really, this is not going to benefit anyone!

You can import PDF-compatible Adobe Illustrator files (.ai) directly into an open document in your Microsoft Expression Blend project.
When you import an Illustrator file into Expression Blend, Illustrator layers, groups, and objects are converted to Expression Blend containers and objects with associated properties. Understanding how Illustrator objects are imported into Expression Blend will help you integrate Illustrator files into your Expression Blend projects more quickly and efficiently.
When you save your file in Illustrator, make sure that the Create PDF Compatible File check box is selected in the Illustrator Options dialog box. Otherwise, you will not be able to import your Illustrator files into Expression Blend.
http://expressioniq.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/b5_CreatePDFCompatibleFile.png (http://expressioniq.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/b5_CreatePDFCompatibleFile.png)
To import an Illustrator file
Open the document into which you want to import the .ai file.
On the File menu, click Import Adobe Illustrator File.
In the Import Adobe Illustrator File dialog box, locate the Illustrator file that you want to import, and click Open.
Click OK.
A new Canvas object with the same name as your imported file is added to your document. In the Objects and Timeline panel, under the Canvas object (named AvatarSymbols in this example), are all of the Illustrator objects imported as Expression Blend objects. If images are imported as a part of your .ai file, a new folder (named AvatarSymbols_Images in this example) is created in the root folder in the Projects panel to contain all the converted image files.
Note: If there are no images associated with your project, a folder will not be created in the Projects panel.
http://expressioniq.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/b5_ImportIllustratorFile.png (http://expressioniq.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/b5_ImportIllustratorFile.png)
You can also create a custom folder in the Project folder for any images that are associated with your .ai file.
To create a custom images folder
In the Projects panel, right-click the .csproj file, and then click Add New Folder.
Type a name for the new folder in the folder name box.
With the folder selected in the Projects panel, import the Illustrator file by following the steps in the preceding procedure entitled “To import an Illustrator file.”
Layers, groups, and objects
Expression Blend imports Illustrator layers and groups as nested XAML Canvas objects containing paths and images. Nested Canvas objects are used as layout containers to make them easier to work with in Expression Blend. The following information will help you understand how to work with Illustrator files after they are imported.
Layer names
Layer names are preserved for the top-level groups (Avatars in the preceding image). After you import your Illustrator file into Expression Blend, you can change the name by right-clicking the object in the Objects and Timeline panel and then clicking Rename, or by double-clicking the object name and then typing directly in the object name field.
File structure and groups
Illustrator groups do not exist in PDF-compatible files, so are not imported into Expression Blend. However, the objects contained within an Illustrator group are imported as individual objects with the same positioning as in the Illustrator group.
Object types
Images are imported as PNG files and are added to an images folder in the Project panel, and added as Image objects in the Objects and Timeline panel. Text and vector objects are imported as editable paths and appear in the Objects and Timeline panel.
Visibility and lock
Visibility settings for Illustrator layers imported into Expression Blend are preserved. However, only visible objects within layers are imported. You can change which objects are imported into Expression Blend by changing the visibility settings of the objects within each layer in Illustrator.
Lock settings are ignored.
Editable content
If the imported content is editable, you can modify the appearance of the content in Expression Blend by modifying the object properties. The following table describes Illustrator elements that are editable in Expression Blend. Use the Description column to locate the properties for the object in order to modify them in Expression Blend.
Illustrator element Expression Blend element (XAML) Description Group Canvas Illustrator groups are ignored. However, the content of the group is imported as individual objects in the Objects and Timeline panel. Text (type objects) Canvas An Illustrator type object is imported as a Canvas object named TextBlock with the original Illustrator text imported as Path objects. Text styles are imported as separate Path objects. For example, a 5-letter word with a Strikethrough style applied is imported as a Canvas object containing 6 paths, one path for each letter of the word, and an additional path for the Strikethrough style.
Stroke Path An Illustrator stroke is imported as a path with the Stroke properties mapped to the Stroke brush in the Properties panel in Expression Blend. Solid color fill Path An Illustrator solid color fill is imported as a Path with the original Fill property mapped to Expression Blend Color properties applied to a Solid color brush. Solid color brush properties are located in the Brush category of the Properties panel.
Linear gradient fill Path An Illustrator linear gradient fill is imported as a Path with the original Fill property mapped to Expression Blend Linear gradient brush properties applied to a Gradient brush. Linear gradient brush properties are located in the Brush category of the Properties panel.
Radial gradient fill Path An Illustrator radial gradient fill is imported as a Path with the original Fill property mapped to Expression Blend Radial gradient brush properties applied to a Gradient brush. Radial gradient brush properties are located in the Brush category of the Properties panel.
Image layer Image An image object in Illustrator is imported as an Image object in Expression Blend. In addition, a PNG file is added to the project. The PNG file is the source for the Image object. Custom fill OpacityMask applied to an ImageBrush Illustrator supports multiple fills for an individual object. If an additional fill is applied to an object in Illustrator, and that fill contains an alpha channel, the fill is imported as an OpacityMask applied to an ImageBrush. For best results, use only one fill acting as an opacity mask in your Illustrator file. OpacityMask properties are located in the Brushes category in the Properties panel. In addition, a PNG file is added to the project. The PNG file is the source for the ImageBrush.
Note: You can verify whether or not multiple fills has been applied to an object by viewing the object properties in the Appearance panel in Illustrator.
Clipping mask Clip property An Illustrator clipping mask is imported as a Clip property. Clip properties are located in the Miscellaneous category in the Properties panel.
Note: The Clip property has limited support in Windows Phone projects.
Illustrator feature support in Expression Blend
The following Illustrator features are supported in Expression Blend. Where noted, features can be edited in Expression Blend.
Note: Although Expression Blend supports the following Illustrator features, for best results, create your Illustrator file using only vector art.
Text
Text layers imported from Illustrator are converted to a canvas, and each character is a separate path object that is a child of the canvas. The appearance of the text is maintained, but is no longer editable as text after it is imported.
If a single text layer in Illustrator contains hard returns, the text associated with each paragraph break will be imported as a separate canvas object when imported into Expression Blend.
Note: You may experience unexpected results when you import text from Illustrator. These results can include unexpected character rotation, kerning, point sizes, and alignment.
Text styles
The following Illustrator text effects create individual paths when imported into Expression Blend.
Subscript
Superscript
StrikeThrough
Underline
SmallCaps
AllCaps
Effects
Effects are supported, but not editable, in Expression Blend. Effects are rasterized and imported as Image objects. A PNG file is used as the source for the image object, and is located in the folder that is created in the Project panel.
Gradients
Expression Blend supports the importing and editing of linear and radial gradients. Color stops are imported as gradient brushes to the Fill property of the resulting object in Expression Blend, and opacity stops are imported as gradient brushes to the OpacityMask property.
Strokes
Custom strokes are imported as individual paths.
When you save an Illustrator file in PDF-compatible format, strokes and fills are saved as separate paths. When you import a PDF-compatible file into Expression Blend, a stroke and a fill on the same object may also be imported as separate objects. However, if the stroke and the fill are identical, the stroke and the fill may be merged into a single object when imported into Expression Blend.

The following table describes Illustrator elements that are editable in Expression Blend. Use the Description column to locate the properties for the object in order to modify them in Expression Blend.
Illustrator element Expression Blend element (XAML) Description Group Canvas Illustrator groups are ignored. However, the content of the group is imported as individual objects in the Objects and Timeline panel. Text (type objects) Canvas An Illustrator type object is imported as a Canvas object named TextBlock with the original Illustrator text imported as Path objects. Text styles are imported as separate Path objects. For example, a 5-letter word with a Strikethrough style applied is imported as a Canvas object containing 6 paths, one path for each letter of the word, and an additional path for the Strikethrough style.
Stroke Path An Illustrator stroke is imported as a path with the Stroke properties mapped to the Stroke brush in the Properties panel in Expression Blend. Solid color fill Path An Illustrator solid color fill is imported as a Path with the original Fill property mapped to Expression Blend Color properties applied to a Solid color brush. Solid color brush properties are located in the Brush category of the Properties panel.
Linear gradient fill Path An Illustrator linear gradient fill is imported as a Path with the original Fill property mapped to Expression Blend Linear gradient brush properties applied to a Gradient brush. Linear gradient brush properties are located in the Brush category of the Properties panel.
Radial gradient fill Path An Illustrator radial gradient fill is imported as a Path with the original Fill property mapped to Expression Blend Radial gradient brush properties applied to a Gradient brush. Radial gradient brush properties are located in the Brush category of the Properties panel.
Image layer Image An image object in Illustrator is imported as an Image object in Expression Blend. In addition, a PNG file is added to the project. The PNG file is the source for the Image object. Custom fill OpacityMask applied to an ImageBrush Illustrator supports multiple fills for an individual object. If an additional fill is applied to an object in Illustrator, and that fill contains an alpha channel, the fill is imported as an OpacityMask applied to an ImageBrush. For best results, use only one fill acting as an opacity mask in your Illustrator file. OpacityMask properties are located in the Brushes category in the Properties panel. In addition, a PNG file is added to the project. The PNG file is the source for the ImageBrush.
Note: You can verify whether or not multiple fills has been applied to an object by viewing the object properties in the Appearance panel in Illustrator.
Clipping mask Clip property An Illustrator clipping mask is imported as a Clip property. Clip properties are located in the Miscellaneous category in the Properties panel.
Note: The Clip property has limited support in Windows Phone projects.
Illustrator feature support in Expression Blend
The following Illustrator features are supported in Expression Blend. Where noted, features can be edited in Expression Blend.
Note: Although Expression Blend supports the following Illustrator features, for best results, create your Illustrator file using only vector art.
Text
Text layers imported from Illustrator are converted to a canvas, and each character is a separate path object that is a child of the canvas. The appearance of the text is maintained, but is no longer editable as text after it is imported.
If a single text layer in Illustrator contains hard returns, the text associated with each paragraph break will be imported as a separate canvas object when imported into Expression Blend.
Note: You may experience unexpected results when you import text from Illustrator. These results can include unexpected character rotation, kerning, point sizes, and alignment.
Text styles
The following Illustrator text effects create individual paths when imported into Expression Blend.
Subscript
Superscript
StrikeThrough
Underline
SmallCaps
AllCaps
Effects
Effects are supported, but not editable, in Expression Blend. Effects are rasterized and imported as Image objects. A PNG file is used as the source for the image object, and is located in the folder that is created in the Project panel.
Gradients
Expression Blend supports the importing and editing of linear and radial gradients. Color stops are imported as gradient brushes to the Fill property of the resulting object in Expression Blend, and opacity stops are imported as gradient brushes to the OpacityMask property.
Strokes
Custom strokes are imported as individual paths.
When you save an Illustrator file in PDF-compatible format, strokes and fills are saved as separate paths. When you import a PDF-compatible file into Expression Blend, a stroke and a fill on the same object may also be imported as separate objects. However, if the stroke and the fill are identical, the stroke and the fill may be merged into a single object when imported into Expression Blend.

WEST COAST OFFENSE OVERVIEW (http://www.westcoastoffense.com/overview.htm)
Obama needs to stop Congress from doing the big comprehensive things and focus them on smaller and faster laws that help americans.
The current healthcare, climate change, immigration reform should be broken up in dozens of smaller bills. They will either pass or he can paint the republicans as siding with the Insurance companies to block access to healthcare for people with pre-existing conditions for example.
There are lots of parts in Healthcare, Energy, CIS, etc, that can pass right now and he should take a lead on that. Otherwise the base that voted for him in 2008 is not going to turn up in 2010.

Hi Sakthisagar,
So this time when you are going to apply in April for ur H1 extn, you will again be paying for H1 extn fees and H4 extn in case you have dependents ?
Also one can file for H1 extn 1 week before his current H1 expiry date right ? without premium processing ?

But the letter doesn't seem to address the direct behaviour of the companies in question. Seems like a bunch of broader level issues were tackled - while true, it doesn't address H1B abuse in any way. Wasn't that the point?
no. The point was that neither of these companies do H1B abuse (small bodyshoppers in the US do), and trying to mix up immigration related rhetoric with international business is not a good idea.
If the senators had an issue, there are standard channels with which these can be taken up (both at ministries as well as trade-group levels). Public letters from these senators to the CEOs of our companies were essentially a publicity stunt to win votes and not a constructive way to find out if there is a problem and how it can be fixed. So in the same vein the NASSCOM reply is a broad response with good subtle hints that mixing immigration with India's business interests is not a good idea.

I work for Company A, applied i-485 and both got EAD & AP.She is the dependent.
My Wife works for Company B which sponsored her H1.
So, I guess she cannot continue to work on H1(company B) upon returning using AP(got as my dependent thru Company A) !!!?? am I correct?
She can work for any company she wants... her EAD is not limited to any job/profession... So she can work for Company B or C or D
PS - My wife works for company B using AP/EAD that came as a result of my I485 done by my employer. So she should enter on AP and use EAD to work. No issues. She can always have the H1 in her back pocket for back up... I would consult a lawyer if I were you before using the H1...
She can not get an H4 though... thats seen as abandoning your AOS status...
Hope this helps...

WOW...its amazing to see how a simple thing (in my opinion) like volunteering can be such a big deal.
While it is legal to work on a L-4 why are H-4s not allowed to work? Beats me!
