I'd be happy if I got a second opinion (my lawyer's is the first) on this issue:
I am ready to file for my AOS(I-485) for the second time based on my employers I-140 petition and would like someone (unitednations ?) to see if there are any possible gotchas.
Chronology
========
#1 May 2001 - Come to US on H1B (California) I-94 valid till Nov 2003
#2 Oct 2001 - Change employers and get a H1 transfer (California) New I-94 valid till Feb 2004
#3 Nov 2002 - Fall in love with an American girl
#4 Dec 2002 - Quit job and move to Michigan to be with girlfriend (Out of status)
#5 March 2003 - Find job in MI, employers lawyer botches my H1 transfer / extension (Out of status)
#6 October 2003 - Fall out with employer and quit.
#7 November 2003 - Marry girlfriend (Out of status)
#8 April 2004 - Wife files I-130/I-485/I-765 (AOS Pending status)
#9 April 2004 - Find a new employer "X" and start working for him
#10 June 2004 - Wife and I have irreconcilable differences and I separate, later file for divorce
#11 June 2004 - "X" petitions for new H1B for me for FY-2005 starting in Oct.
#12 July 2004 - leave US and go back to homeland, get new H1 visa stamped with expiration date of June 2007
#13 Sept. 2004 - Come back to the US with new H1 visa stamp and get new I-94 (exp. June 2007) -----> Fresh start, eh ?
#14 Nov 2004 - Divorce final
#15 Dec 2004 - "X" files Labor RIR EB3. PD is Dec 2004
#16 Dec 2005 - "X" files labor PERM EB2. PD is Dec 2005
#17 Feb 2006 - PERM labor EB2 approved
#18 March 2006 - Voluntarily went to local CIS office and withdrew old I-485. Proof of withdrawal obtained.
#19 June 2006 - EB2 I-140 filed with copy of labor (Still pending) Obtained receipt
#20 Oct 2006 - EB3 labor approved from backlog center
#21 May 2007 - File for 7th year H1B extension
#22 Jun 2007 - EB3 I-140 filed (Still pending). Obtained receipt
#23 Jul 2007 - H1B Extension approved (new I-94 with expiration of Jun 2008)
#24 Jul 2007 - Ready to file I-485 concurrent with EB3 I-140
Since 2004 I have maintained valid non-immigrant status (I think). Will I have any issues with accrual of out of status / unlawful stay based on my actions above ?
As you can see, mine is not a straightforward case.
The million dollar question : Based on my actions in steps #4 thru #10, is there a chance that my new I-485 will be adversely affected ? If so, is there anything that anyone can tell me to remedy/rectify the situation to avoid it ?
Thanks !
My case has some similarities, except marrying an American and divorce, but I was out of status for a long time and I thought there was no hope at all. One of my former clients offered me a job and sponsored my h1 of course. I went home and have my new h1 stamped and came back. I was out of status probably for more than two years. Now, I just got my receipt for July 2 485 application. My PD is April 2006. I'm read people are talking here that when you re-enter on a new h1, your previous out of status "status" will be irrelevant.

I decided to move to india now. I have I140 cleared and having a permanent job. But enough is enough!
I started looking openings at india 2 weeks ago and most probably will get a offer from a US financial giant having IT shop at bangalore.
I think this is right decision at this time.
Any suggestions/feedback guys?
Everybody's case is different, when it comes to how they feel being a in a foreign country and hanging by a thread to get a stable status and stable life. You seem to have gotten a stable job which probably means you are better than most of the people who are working as contractors. But what matters is being on Visa, are you able to enjoy your life here? Will getting a GC help you have a better life or will you continue to lead the same life?
I think if you believe getting a GC will help you lead a better life you should stay here - since your i140 is cleared its another 4-5 yrs wait max. On the other hand if your job here is unstable and you think you will have a better life back home, then you should move. Bangalore is a great city as long as you have a comfortable job and good pay.

Stop eating junk food. It's bad for your health. Save the money that you'd spend on burgers, soda pops, french fries, pizzas and other fattening fast food. You'll be surprised by how much you have saved in a month (and lost weight too).
Donate the money saved to IV. It's good for your health and also good for your GC aspirations.

I think the IO just say anything that comes into their mind because they know nobody's there to hold them accountable during the interview process. Thats why I think one should take an attorney along during the interview process if they think their case maybe little complicated. At least the attorney can step in when it comes to the IOs denying your application improperly. Does anyone think this is a good idea to be on safer side?
yes..totally agree...it might cost around 1000$ but I think ppl shud take attorney..I felt the same after the interview.
I had every damn document for the last 6 years..every paycheck..all 94's..all empl..letters..
I felt it was a clean case..but you never know.
If possible, take attorneys with you

We just need to make them work on our side.
Why only 10 you tube videos when there are 23000 members in this organization?
Why do I have to hand out flyers to complete strangers when 10000 visit the site everyday??
AND Why only 100 votes to attend rally on THIS (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=12441)thread, when there are over 300 active users at THIS very moment???!!!
I think he is telling the truth. Otherwise we would have almost 100% attendance for the rally. But it does not seem like. So, i think we "so called higly educated and qualified" need to think about it.

Sometimes we get approached by journalists who need a story the very next day. They are looking for specific subjects for the story though.
An example is say the Investors Business Daily (a financial daily). A reporter might come to us and ask us if we have anyone from the Finance sector who is suffering due to retrogression and is willing to speak up about it. They might also add that we need only Eb1/Eb2 category folks.
When this happens, we are in a mad scramble to find folks who fit this criteria so that we do not lose this chance.
Another example might be of a Medical Journal looking for doctors stuck due to retrogression.
We are constantly getting requests like this but cannot capitalize on it because we do not have enough stories already available to fit the criteria.
So please send in your stories. It need not be earth shattering at all (most of us are mere mortals). You never know when a reporter is specifically looking for a story similar to yours and you might just tilt the balance in favor of skilled immigrants.

As many are aware, there was a huge rush to buy and sell pre-approved labors during July-August 2007, when all the priority dates were suddenly made current. Tens of thousands of labors were sold by fraudulent consulting companies to many questionable GC seekers, who hadn’t even started the process till then.
It is those substituted labors which are clogging the pipelines now. Just think, last month EB3-I stood at November 2001. Now it is completely unavailable. It can’t possibly be because so many pending labors with such old priority dates suddenly got cleared this month, and beneficiary of these labors filed 140+485 together. I seriously doubt that a candidate whose labor is pending since such a long time is even keeping that GC process alive. In all likelihood he/she must have moved on in life.
There is only one explanation. These labors were already pre-approved. It is the attached I-140 on these labors that are getting approved rapidly. And the subsequent I-485 petitions on these applications are depleting the visa numbers.
The reason of this post is not to start an argument about the ethics of labor substitution. It is just a FYI post to explain the seemingly inexplicable. The chickens are coming home to roost.

I believe there are more than one admin here, why dont one of you take couple of minutes atleast for the sake of putting a stop to this false accusations. Why dont you track our IP address for the past 1-2 days. You know we have been posting simultaneously, why do you please take a step to find out if these messages are coming from the same machine or even same vicinity. Please do this for our sake. Coz I dont want others to believe in this accusations.

Thanks for sharing this info
I thought I will share this. Not sure if its going to help anyone.
Approached the entry counter where they give you token to inside and talk to IO. Surprisingly the person at the entry counter had IO written on her badge that she was wearing. She asked me reason to visit. I told her that I applied for my I-485 and have been current for this month , but have not heard anything. She asked if I was EB2 or Eb3. I told her EB2. She asked for receipts. I gave her 485 receipt and copy of I-140. She then compared my PD with copy of August Visa Bulletin. After she confirmed that I was current, she told me that my case is assigned to IO. I don't think she even entered my A# or receipt number. But I am not sure about this part because I dont remember the exact sequence of events. Anyway, I asked her whether my NC is clear. She then entered something in the system and told me that my NC was clear only last month and thats why my case has assigned to my IO. But this time she told me it was assigned on 8/8/08. She told me I should hear something soon. Did not and was not ready to give any time line. Also she did not mention anything about visa numbers being exhausted. If this had been the case she could have mentioned that.
After that I asked if everything else was clear, she mentioned without even looking at the system that everything is clear and I should hear on my case soon.
I dont know about rest of the stuff but I know that at least the NC info is consistent with the call I made to TSC few weeks ago. So I can at least believe that my NC is clear.
Hope this helps.

PlainSpeak...F1 are not burden to US, they pay big college fees for the education.
You know who is real burden, thats H4 visa holders like you. who have nothing to do. they just sit home eat and fight.
you are a classic example of burden to the society.. you are spending all the time here and fighting with everyone.
if anyone starts talking about anything, you just come and start fighting.

Lets not denigrate all the H4's. I am sure our near and dear ones aren't vile as PlainSpeak.
Funny post though
