I was told that people on H4 are not eligible for SSN, and if I want she (the person on counter in ssa office) can issue me a denial letter for that. It sounded useless to me that time, so I didn't bother to get that letter.
This idea sounds good to me, I'll go to SSA office again and try to apply. Offcourse they will say that they can't accept application. So I'll get a denial letter and I can appeal against that.
They cannot refuse to accept your application. Fill in the forms and send them in. They can deny your application and then you can appeal. If they refuse to accept the application, you have two options. You can contact your congressman and complain. You can file a discrimination complaint with the SSA ombudsman. Here is the discrimination form.
https://ssa.gov/online/ssa-437.pdf
Finally, if you believe you have been denied your rights because you are an immigrant, you can contact your local ACLU and ask them to represent your case. As a last resort, you can file a lawsuit at the federal district court. The filing fee for this is $350. However, I hope we are all doing this to exercise our rights rather than for the money. At least that is my motivation.
In my case, the first time I called, the person hung up on me. But I did not give up. I got them to accept the application and it is currently under reconsideration. I was also able to get a response from the Regional Office. So far they have not addressed any of the points I made in the original case as described in the OP. I expect they will continue to ignore their own laws and regulations, until I appeal this to an administrative judge, who will make a legal ruling.
BTW: All this costs you nothing but your time.

Collected 11 signatures during NJ trip and I guess these will go into NJ account..and 6 signatures from FL [11(NJ)+07(FL)=17]

Guys,
Improving your own skills by doing Double MBA would not be gandhigiri.
A course in history will teach us what Gandhi did for rights of Indians in South Africa, who were oppressed and had to pay more taxes than anyone else. He fought for those people. If we could even manage to perform a percentile of that , we maybe able to get our community's problems resolved. I am sure the people working in farms in SA had no rights and were treated like slaves, we however, are in much better position and different times than the late 19th century. Not sure we can get a Gandhi to lead us, but if we strive for Unity among the Retrogressed community we can defintely improve our situation.

Hi Nycgal369,
I am not your buddy :-)
That's nothing new that Dems are pro amnesty. I am not arguing against that. Nancy Pelosi already said something in that regard I think. What I refute is the argument portrayed by misinformed members that the shift in power was caused significantly by the anti illegal alien position. It is not true. That's all I am saying.
Contrary to belief of some members, I am not disappointed with this. I will continue to be your Ombudsman as usual and report everything, probably you will hear more good news for those who believe that amnesty is the way to go. Facts are facts. I am not here to defend any side.
Thanks,
The Ombudsman

Sure, though I am not back from a party... IT IS INDEED PARTY TIME FOR MANY :D
My question was more specific, with dates being current, can you apply for 485 on any day of next month July.
I suppose the next bulletin for Aug (that may probably be released 10 or 11 July) will be only effective since Aug 1st.
Please confirm.
Yes. If your visa is current in July. Then you have whole July to apply. Even if you deliver on Sundays. but i have no idea whether they accept application on Sunday's..

One change I noticed.
Now people can continue in the old system if the I-140 was approved or pending before the first day of the fiscal year subsequent to the the bill being enacted. So if the bill is passed right away, you need to have filed your I-140 before Oct 1 2007.

Just called USCIS and told her that My application was mailed on Jun 28th and it got delivered on July 02. I also told her that my PD is May 2003 (hence i'm eligible to file in June)..
She told me that since i mailed it in June and this Notice goes into effect in July 02 my application WILL NOT be rejected... She asked me to wait for receipt notice :)
GOING CRAZZZZZZZZZZZYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
I dont know what all these exchanges with CS Reps is doing for others......but it is making me laugh like crazy....bet they dont have a clue about why our ass is on fire since Monday July2nd (early fireworks from USCIS for our benefit ...huh?)

I try to remind citizens (people i know) that they are offspring of immigrants...the point I struggle with is "how to convince them that they should actively support CURRENT LEGAL IMMIGRATION". Most of them feel that there is a system (which we know is broken) in place.
Maybe the discussion point should be LEGAL IMMIGRATION is normal phenomenon. The system is broken at multiple points (slow processes/supply-demand of visa numbers/wasted visa numbers/country limits etc). We are trying to FIX broken system and need voter group's support in that.
My request to you all is...bring awareness about inefficient broken system to everyone you meet...and we may have a chance of positive discussion.
I did sometime back.
Given thanksgiving is barely a week away, we can be certain of the usual platitudes directed at immigrants - this is a good time to remind the average American how far they have strayed from their roots and forgotten the true sentiment behind the tradition. Immigrants have always been hated and reviled by those that got here earlier - but the current anti-immigrant sentiment is vastly different in scale and sophistry due to the times we live in. If every IV member signs up 10 citizens to the immigrant cause, we should easily be 100,000 strong in a couple of weeks. It could be anyone from your advisor at school who mentored you to your buddies at work - even the stinkin relatives should be harassed. Though CIS and Numbersusa pretend that they are a product of the current anti-illegal sentiment, they started out much before the so-called 'wave' started. And they have adapted and honed their strategies very well to crush whatever relief Congress contemplates/passes. Consider the way CIS was initially dedicated to 'researching' immigrant issues that they would complain about the media's positive stories about immigrant contributions as merely anecdotal evidence not worthy of rebuttal. Now they are suddenly fond of anecdotal evidence themselves since experts began demolishing their claims of job-stealing and other baseless charges convincingly(esp CFR's Sebastian Mallaby) using empirical evidence-they shamelessly stoop to use someone's sob story to make their case. So, as repugnant as their motives are, they are too transparent for their own good- and they can't cover their tracks -which is good for us since we are appealing to the fair minded. Remember - every one in the US is an immigrant or an offspring of one. They have always been hated and reviled -so if someone who benefited from the immigrant tradition of this nation wants to turn around and deny it to those following him/her even though their ancestors did the same thing at a great emotional/economic cost to the then existing natives- they have a higher bar in explaining why the current bunch shouldn't continue to benefit from the great tradition-merely being bigoted but sophisticated enough to hide it isn't enough. so don't lose heart but dont sit on your ass either.

Hi All,
Andrew Dutton - 917-536-5940, immigration_counselor@yahoo.com is my attorney for green card. I had also used him before for H1B renewal, PERM & I-140 substitution with DOL (while case was pending with Backlog Center). He is very professional, humble, and always answers phone calls & email messages immediately. He is also very very affordable (shall I say inexpensive - see the amounts he charged me for H1B, green card processing etc below).
I was one of the unfortunate ones who got scammed my Earl David Associates (New York Law Firm) - now renamed to Jed David Philwin Associates. I know how bad law firms can be - they did not file my LC in 2003 but kept on telling me that they did - ONLY a year after in 2004 they promised me they had already done so. Needless to say how much pain suffering this caused me.
I used Andrew for my H1B + wife's H4 renewal - total attorney fees - $550. No extra fees for filing documents for family members.
Then, I used him for EB2 PERM, I-140, I-485/EAD/AP (for myself & my wife) - total attorney fees - $1600. No extra fees for filing documents for family members.
I had an existing LC approved from Backlog Center - he filed I-140 for just $100-$150 attorney fees - stating that since he had already filed a previous I-140 for me - he just needs to modify some minor details on the I-140 & file it.
He filed my I-485 over the weekend so it reached USCIS on Monday July 2 - who knows I may be one of the lucky ones when July visa bulletin fiasco is resolved.
Regarding, Philwin associates they're big time scammers...they've taken from me $5000 without giving me not even a receipt or send me the retainment and dissapeared specifically avoid fake lawyer Michael (MIKE) Venieris. I'm personally taking them to court so spread the word. Does anyone know where submit a complaint for them to the IRS and the lawyers association? However, SPREAD THE WORD so at least to take them out of the market!!

Hello,
I have a few questions regarding the application for AP for a dependent, and I would appreciate it if someone would answer them.
1. If the dependent is applying for AP, should I include the primary applicant's I-485 in the application packet?
2. The dependent has an EAD. Is it necessary to include copy(ies) of the EADs with the AP packet?
3. If the previous AP has expired, is the applicationo process for a new AP different from that if a non-expired AP is being renewed?
4. I was reading in some threads that the $305 fee will be waived if there is a pending I-485. Is that correct?
Thanks in advance!
For dependent include:
1) you should include copy of dependent's I-485 recipt notice, you can include copy of primary's I-140 application but is not required. you should also include copies of prior AP's
2) You do not need to include EAD documents
3) No there is no difference based on previous AP.
4) If you are a July 07 or prior I-485 filer fee is not wavied. you have to submit a check for $305.

Skills in general are typically formed by three components:
a) 1/3 - Formal hands-on Training
b) 1/3 - On the job experience
c) 1/3 - Reading, research on your own
If you have some indirect project experience by working as a programmer for example, I don't see why not you cannot do items a) and c) above. At least the PMP (or whatever certification you intend to take) will be ready when opportunities come and the training should help you expand your horizons. Good luck.
I really don't know, As some body suggested doing PMP, for doing the PMP certification you need to have a project management experience of few years right?
