There is a policy for accepting asylees from Cuba and allowing them to seek permenant residency.
Its called the wet feet/dry feet policy. See Here on wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet_Feet/Dry_Feet_Policy)
The wet feet, dry feet policy (sometimes called the wet-foot, dry-foot Policy) is the name given to a consequence of the 1995 revision of the Cuban Adjustment Act of 1966 that says, essentially, that anyone who fled Cuba and got into the United States would be allowed to pursue residency a year later. After talks with the Cuban government, the Clinton administration came to an agreement with Cuba that it would stop admitting people found at sea. Since then, in what has become known as the "wet feet, dry feet" policy, a Cuban caught on the waters between the two nations, "wet feet", would summarily be sent home or to a third country. One who makes it to shore, "dry feet", gets a chance to remain in the United States, and later would qualify for U.S. citizenship.
You better carry a nice towel with you when you come back from Cuba and make sure your feet are dry when apprehended by coast guard. And make sure you dont end up getting kidnapped and killed in Cuba, coz they really dont have very nice law enforcement.

Hi Cooler,
Thank you for your response. Company B is not willing to sponsor H1B.
Lets say if campany A keeps paying me (runs my payroll with salary specified on my H1 petition) Will that keep my H1b alive and active when i work on EAD for company B ? ( Did i get that right )
Will USCIS know that i have switched jobs in between ?
What does IMHO mean ?
Thank you for your help

You need to be present in US at time of applying for the extension and when its approved. Said that in your case I think it would be fine to start H1B extension process after you are back. May be to be safe you can try doing it premium(if company is ready to spend extra money) as it gets done usually in less than a month.

If more than 180 days have passed since your I-140 was cleared then you can use AC21 and use your EAD to transfer your GC process to Company C if the job responsibilites are the same as in your job profile that you submitted for Company D . Your GC process will continue as usual in that case. No need to worry.

I got an RFE to send copies of my degrees on nov 15th. my attorney sent the copies and my status changed to Response to request for evidence received and processing is resumed. How many days will it take for I-140 approval after the response to RFE to received by USCIS ?
It should be few days not weeks. BTW did your attorney charge money for responding to RFE?

I recently found out that someone had stolen my credit card information to purchase items online. I have since then closed that credit card and went ahead and put a fraud alert for 90 days on my credit report. I don't believe my SSN was stolen, but I want to check my credit report and also for protection have the alert so that no one tries to apply for loans etc. using any of my information.
Will having the fraud alert have an impact on my 485 filing in any way? Let me know what the best process is to handle this if it does have an impact on 485 background checks, and pending green card approvals etc.
I have no criminal history.
Thanks,
ROW
PD 4/1/2004
485 Received Date 7/27/2007
Fraud alert does not go into your permanent credit report. All this does it is that when you try to open a new loan/credit account, the lender will see that there is a fraud alert on your profile and may call you to verify. It should not have any effect on your I-485.
I have been thinking of signing up with lifelock.com. You may wanna check them out.

Gurus,
My and spouse case have
Priority Date - March 2004,
Received Date - July 2nd, 2007
Notice Date - Aug. 08, 2007
My Kid's case has
Priority Date - March 2004,
Received Date - July 2nd, 2007
Notice Date - Nov. 20, 2007 (As 08/23/2007 is the current processing time frame, my kid's Notice Date is out of current time frame)
This is happened due to a rejection of my kid's 485 application initially during July 2007 fiasco due to the Old and New fee schedule implementaion of USCIS, even though we have remitted the correct fee.
1) Do anybody know how USCIS will process our case?
Like adjudicating my and spouse applications with out kid's applicaiton? Or none of the applications process?
2) Taking an info pass appointment will do any favour on this case?
3) Any other suggestions?
Thanks.

Did we ever think about forming a team with other like minded people under one banner? I think we will be able to effect something if all Pro CIR people join hands together and pool our resources. Any suggestions??
Good idea! here is why it won't work
AILA sees 11 milllion clients at their door step, so they support more of CIR which mostly favours illegals
Compete America is more towards corporate interest, they will be happy if they get more H1Bs, they do support more EB green cards, but I don't think itz their top agenda
IV is formed by guys who are really victims, so we know whatz in our best intrest, none of other groups are not victims they just want to take advantage of current situation
never the less their policy do align with ours , so I am sure IV core members are in touch with these organization and work them more closly

My sponsoring company changed its� legal name on January 1, 2008 for some restructuring reasons. I got saved, as I�m July 2, 2007 I-485 filer (I ended up completing 6 months after I-485 with filing employer).
Our corporate attorney has advised us that, they would invoke AC21 only if RFE received.
Now, I�m looking else where for a new job � I plan to invoke AC21 only if RFE is received. However, I�m concerned that my employer may try to revoke I-140 (Note # On Behest of my �Desi� manager who has pinned me down on several occasions due to my pending GC application)
My question is � since filing employer no longer exists (legally), would my current employer be able to revoke I-140?
I would appreciate insight from Guru�s on this forum!

Hello All,
My wife is in a similar situation where she was on F1 till Sept 31st (OPT) and now on H1-B (since Oct 1st). I have also added her as a dependent in my GC application and hence she has received her AP. We are planning to go to India in the month of January. Can she return back using AP? I have read in other threads that one can return using AP and there is no need to stamp your H1-B visa in the passport. But in her case, the H1-B visa is not stamped even once. Can this be a problem if she enters using AP? I would appreciate your advise in this matter.
Regards,

I have two I -140's approved with one PD from end of 2005 and other end of 2006 both on EB2. I 485 is based based on 2nd one in 2006. So question is can I port 2005 pd to I 485 based on 2006?
Some where I heard that you can only port the PD when your 2nd is application stage and is pending. but here it is applied and already approved. Is it a good case for Porting PD or interfiling?
And by the way what is the difference between porting and interfiling?
Thanks
Porting and interfiling are pretty much same ...( some use interfiling to use cross changeability ) .
you should be able to use your old PD ...Just ask your attorney to contact USCIS with your old I 140. and New I 140. Lot if times USCIS automatically links your PD's . But again its USCIS?? Just follow up with your attorney , you can take a infopass and show them your documents ( some officers are Info pass know the issue and will help you )
