Guys,
I have approved EB3 LC and approved I 140 with PD JAN 2002. My wife has approved EB2 LC (Perm) and Approved I 140 with PD JAN 2006
As we represent one family can't my wife use my PD and apply I 485 under EB2.
for example If husband is born in a retrogressed country and wife in a non retrogressed country in that case, husband gets a free ride !
Why not in this case ? Just curious !

I dont think you can amend the labor petition's job description. You may have to file new labor again for new description.
If I may ask, why are you so worried about job desc of labor and your everyday duties. Really, if they have changed a little bit, its not a big deal.
There is a lot of overlap between what programmers do, what programmers/analysts do and what Business analysts do. I know a lot of business analysts who at times write their own code and a lot of programmers who document stuff - kind of documentation that BAs do.
People who adjudicate cases at USCIS are not really IT guys who can differentiate between fine nuances like BA, programmers etc.
Then again, we dont know much about your case, better talk to a lawyer if you are still not comfortable with your situation. Forums are not an alternate to professional legal advice. Be careful before you act on advice from forums. No one here is lawyer and no one here knows the full case. Spending 200 dollars to get the right legal advice when making important decisions is worth every penny.
You can also submit your question for the free legal advice program we have (see the homepage) and your question would be taken up.
Well, my case is pending at BEC in TR queue. After the RIR conversion rule became available, my lawyer is converting mine to RIR. Well, when she sent for wage determination, TWC is classifying my wage scale at a higher rate than anticipated. This is because one of the lines in my job description refers to the job involving "technical supervision..". As a result this job is being classified as a supervisory position. The lawyer sent a letter clarifying that it is not a supervisory position, but no luck. However, the lawyer says she can change the wordage slightly while submitting in RIR and reprase it to clarify that it is NOT a supervisory position. Has anybody come across such a scenario? The lawyer seems to think that it is ok to make such a change and all I can do is hope and pray that she is right.

Its 100% fraud and abuse. I'm suprised you even thought of asking about this. The answer is in your question.
I worked for an employer in WY 2004 as a physician and since then i resigned and moved onto another job with a new labor and I-140. However last year at the time of July isa bulletin fiasco, I asked my employer from WY in 2004 to file for an I-140 based on the previous approved labor condition in 2004 to retain that priority date under EB -2.
Employer knows I have no intent of joining them after the green card and I have my own practice , so i donot intend to join the practice.
In this scenario, if this considered a misuse of retaining priority date and how do i prove the intent and will the USCIS allow a situation like this?

Based on current estimates, it will be 10-15 years time, unless u r son/daughter can sponsor you prior... u will end up in family quota wait still.
I am not sarcastic this is the reality,
Hey, in 5 years, all the EB waitings are going to start the family based GCs with their kids. So in 10 years, the Family Queue will be same as EB Queue, so it is better to wait on EB Queue. :)

My wife got RFE before leaving for India. Unless you know what the RFE is about, do not leave the country under any circumstances. RFE dates cannot be extended without compelling reasons. If you do not answer RFE, your petition has the chance of being considered "abandoned". Call the service center, not customer service, and find out about the content of RFE and tell them that you updated the address but you still did not get it.
They have access to read what is in the RFE. For my wife, the IO at NSC read the RFE content and told that it is about birth certificate. So, call and find out what is in there and take care of it first. Under any circumstances do not leave the country without answering the RFE otherwise you may not be able to come back, because it may lead to your petition considered abandoned. This risk is greatest if you use AP.
If your wife is traveling on H4, then she can enter using that VISA as long as if you maintain valid H1B. But if you are on EAD and she is traveling on AP, do not take risk. Do not listen to multiple people because you get half-cooked answers. I went through that situation and I am telling you, get to the bottom of the RFE, fast.

All,
so Please dont jump at this rule , think about it its good for us , I m sure guys who filed their labor late 2007/early 2008 will be thinking oh what happens if July 07 happens again , but trust me thats very unlikely ..Also your 140 will be approved way a head before you apply for 485.
On the Postive side ...Even if July becomes current , people are still good to apply concurrent. Because this rule will come into effect only from Aug.
Cheer up.

I entered the US as a student in Jan '99 and did a couple of trips on my F1 visa and since I got my H1-B approval notice in 2001, I never left until last December '07 and returned with a stamped H1-B visa.
I would be "ok" if they asked for all returns since 2001 as that's when I actually started working and used the H1-B, but why is he asking for returns from 1999, I have no clue...
That's why I mentioned it feels like he wants to deny my applicatoin. Can he deny it if I can't produce the returns for '99 and '00 even though I filed my returns and the IRS can't produce evidence that I did or didn't?
I do have the W-2's from '99 and '00...
Any ideas/help from senior members or someone that had a similar situation?
If you have w-2's you just need to fill 1040NR-EZ and send it back to the requesting officer. I don't understand what is the problem in fill a form and signing it and sending in the copies of it... what difference does it make if it was filled in 1999 or 2008 as it will be the same thing.... if they have a problem ask them to verify it with IRS which I am sure they will not able to do as there is no way so they have to accept what you submit... just my $0.02.. ask your attorney about this...

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.

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.
