    zecco.com is a good discount trader..
    after you have accumulated 2500.. u get 10 trades per month free...
    more than enough...for a retail trader..

    its good if ur investment is less than 25k..



    Try tradeking

    I know some brokerages go deep.. but tradeking works out cool no minimum.

    Just a little hassle as it is not directly attached to your checking..

    Have a margin account and options account, but stay away from using margin and options.

    I am looking for advice on the strategy for filing the third phase since the PDs for my wife and me have become current. My PD is Feb 2003 (EB2) and my wife's is June 2003 (EB3). My wife and I are on 8-th yr H-1B extensions with approved I-140s. Which strategy makes sense and are they even valid? The objective is to go with a risk-free strategy that gets us the GC in the quickest manner.

    1. I apply for I-485 (AOS) using my PD, with my wife as dependent. And my wife applies for I-485 (AOS) using her PD, with me as dependent.
    2. I apply for I-485 (AOS) using my PD, with my wife as dependent. And my wife applies for Consular Processing using her PD, with me as dependent. OR vice versa.
    3. Any other option?

    Thanks,
    Jayant

    Counsular processing(CP) or AOS is determined according to individual situation. It depends on Job-stability, lot of factors. you should do what works for you after careful evaluation, not hedge your bets by doing 2 applications. Just do one way, either use your PD or your wife's and do one application for I-485. Whichever has the best chance with the lowest rate of RFI. whoever wants to stick around longer in their job (you or wife?) should apply, it will take a year+ for that person to stay in the job before final physical card and then 6 more months. Talk to your attorney.

    Hi guys,

    Is there a way to check your PERM status online using the receipt number? I tried researching it but did not find anything.

    They can interpret the law how the language was used in the legislation as well as what congress intended to do. Any way, before 2000, INA clearly enforce the veritcal spill over in EB catagories. After year 2000 (after AC21 amendment to INA) INA was modified to horizontal spillover. DOS did not noticed this change till 2007. Only after 2007 (after AILA&congress efforts) DOS paid the attention to the law change and exactly following the law. Till that point EB3 was benefitted. One of the purpose of AC21 law is, to remove country quota in EB catagories. The intension is, becuse of 7% country limitation, american competiveness should not be affected (to eliminate the limitation of the high skilled immigrants from oversubscribed countries in higer catagory).

    Can you post links to any official memo with regards to this change if you happen to find. This will clear the confusion. I do not think AC21 amendment changes anything specific to spill over visa allocation. Anyway.. I am trying to find the link to any official memo and will post if I find any

    I don't think you are highly educated and having refined thought. You don't know how to behave in a forum. For your information I hold the highest degree offered by any university (Ph.D). I hope you know what is Ph.D. Please get out of this thread. We do not need thoughtless creatures. Do not reply to this and be away from this forum.
    I DON'T NEED ANY ADVICE FROM A HALF BAKED COOKIE.....

    Again, a grasp on the English language is missing. Wow and all that after a Ph.D!!!. So why are you stuck in a retrogression under the EB3 category "PhD Face"

    One of my close friends is considering running the DC 10 miler with me. She never ran or walked a race before. Hopefully she will decide to atleast walk before the end of the day. That will be good for both of us

    I partnered with my aunt to walk the SF 5K as well. now I really need to partner with someone who can run the Houston 1/2 marathon with me.

    We have been through these rumors/news before and things pass in the senate easily and the house is the main barrier. No matter how optimistic we are there is no point getting excited so early in the game. If people want to do something please contribute to IV.

    Just checked USCIS.gov. Both mine and my wife's I-485 were approved.

    "On May 5, 2011, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you. If we need something from you we will contact you. If you move before you receive the card, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283."

    Thanks IV for all the support.

    Will continue to support in all it's endeavours.

    CONGRATS My friend. Really feeling happy to see the approvals.

    By grace of Almighty, finally my Inbox received the email from USCIS that I was eagerly waiting for.

    Just few minutes back, I received the Email from USCIS for myself, my wife and daughter saying "Current Status: Notice mailed welcoming the new permanent resident".

    It's a long journey started in August 1997 with landing in Washington Dulles Airport. Got a chance to start the GC process by filing Labor in 2001. The labor approval didn't come until 2007.

    In 2004 had to take a transfer to different company which caused me to start the Labor again in Nov 2004. Lost the valuable 3 years of PD date.

    Finally the approval for 2nd labor came just right before 2007 July Fiasco. Luckily I had my attorney filed my application on July 2nd itself. And Rest you know the story.

    All throughout I was on H1B, on permanent employment and never out of status. Never had any problem with Immigration process except for the GC delay. In any way it was an interesting journey, making new friends, had the chance to live in SFO, LA, New Jersey, Virginia and currently in Maryland.

    Many thanks to IV and its members for providing the wonderful platform for sharing and collaborating for common cause.

    I wish all the best to all those who are still in queue. Hang in there. Your turn will come.

    congrats and Best Wishes

    10 years and still waiting

    My case is also similar to yours, My 1st labor was filed 2001 March, and I had to switch my employer and the 2nd labor was Sept 2002, Again I had to switch the employer, And finally 3rd labor was filed on June 2004, cleared around Dec 06 from the BEC .

    Still waiting for GC with the Valid H1 ( Until Feb 2011)

    I am waiting for the magic email.

    I am. Who else is following up with the reps they have called before?

    Yes, its a good idea to call again and follow up saying that you are very keen on knowing whether the Congressman made any decision yet. We have our hopes pinned up on this one!

    How much of a chance does she have to have her form I 539 approved now? Any response would be very much appreciated.
    Thank You
    Contact a good immigration attorney immediately. Being out of status is a serious violation and her access to US can be restricted due to this. I doubt very much that her 539 will be approved.
