First of all if you are the employee for whom the case has been filed, you should NOT be contacting the Dept. of Labor. The purpose of the DOL as stated in the regs is to notify the USCIS that there are no able, willing, or qualified US workers for the position, and that's why they are granting you the position. If you call, especially over and over as you have indicated, that's a big red flag. Leave it alone and let your attorney or employer contact them.
A very much TRUE statement....

Hello guys,
I e-filed my EAD renewal in July 3rd, did my FP in August 1 and I still don't have my card.
I opened a Service Request last week since it's been way beyond the "regulatory" 90 days and I got a letter yesterday basically saying that "even though my case is serious, I didn't provide them with an extreme reason to expedite the issuing of the card". Then on a separate line they have: "pending security clearance".
What in the world is an "extreme" reason to get my EAD renewed?? And why is it pending a security clearance if It's already been more than 120 days and it's a "renewal" -not a new card!!
My original EAD expired in 8/10 (I never used it) and my H1B will expire in 1/21/2009.
Anyone got the same thing? What can I do here?

You can apply for SSN now. You don't need a job to get SSN because you have EAD.

Income earned thru rent is considered as Un-Earned Income. All the un-earned income (i.e. that you get by not working) is not subject to social security taxes. But any income earned(working or stocks gain, house rent etc.,) is always considered as Income. Income( i.e. Earned or Un-earned) is always subject to tax as per IRS.
So many people who work for themselves (home based company owners) will write check themselves(company name to personal). So that when filing taxes, company taxes are tax deductible) and self income taxes are not subject to social security and Medicare taxes which is a good amount to save.
My 2 cents. This is best according to my knowledge. Consult a tax professional for accurate info.

Same for me... I went to India...I followed the process while boarding and gave the passport to Airlines guy. But Somehow noticed after boarding the plane that he had not stamped my passport. So that I-94 came back with me when I reentered USA, But I did not say anything to the Immigration Officer at the POE, and got a new I-94. Will this effect my I-485?

That was exactly what I was looking for.
What happen if the employer fire me because the project I am working on finishes and they can't reallocate me right away? Or for any other reasons? Of course I will not push anything to be fired, but it is a situation that can happen, specially with IT.
Tks!

What does AC-21 have to do with verifying out of status? Can you give more details on how AC-21 affected his I-485?
Thanks
There was one case where in appeal his claim for AC-21 was upheld, but his job location was different from LCA location, so he was termed out of status on H1 and since his out of status > 180 days, his I-485 was denied.
This happened in early 2007.

ofcourse you can renew your H1B using your pending I485 and you should get 3 years extension. There should not be any problem.
I don't think your revoked I140 will pose any problems as your MTR is accepted.
Filing your H1b and what documents to be included will be taken care by your attorney.
I think you should be OK. Any way all the best

Thanks again Elaine, for clearing much of the fog in my mind!
So when she appears for H-4 interview in consulate in India, will there be any questions on her H1 stay in US? Is there a chance of her H-4 getting denied in case if the officer finds her out of status stay?
Does she need to show proof of her in-status stay while in US for appearing for H-4 interview?
Are we allowed to appear for our interviews at any consulate in India or are we restricted to appear only that consulate which is in my area of jurisdiction?

Hi All,
My Current Situation: I-140 approved on Jan 22, 2009 with company B, 7th year of my H1 ending July 2009, Current company B applied H1 extension, But H1 extension (No RFE just straight denied) - Denied based on "Old Company A"s I-485 - which was denied in June 26th 2008. Iam still in project and no issue of paystubs and all.
Looks like USCIS didn�t considered my current company�s approved 1-140.
Right now, Employer applied MTR (appeal) provided all documents.. like approved I-140 copy, LC copy and previous H1 copies.. etc.
I don't have EAD.
Please some one share their experience and suggestions:
*Usually how much time they will take to respond this kind of Appeals (MTR).
And also for safe side -- can I file another H1 in premum processing while this MTR is in pending.
*If my MTR appeal decision getting delay... can I work for my employer even after July 13th until I get decision on my H1 Extension. Do I eligible for that or I need to go back India.
Iam really worried, I got 2 younger kids.
I request, Kindly give me your valuable advice.
Thank You All,
Wish Good

Nik gives some good advice.
If you still want to continue shooting during the darker part of the show (and don't want to "fix" they eyes of every animal shot), you'll have to find a better way to light things - this means not using a direct strobe from the camera to the animal (or cowboy), as this is what causes the red/white eyes - light reflecting straight back from the eye to the camera.
The simple way to solve this is to get an off-camera hotshoe for the flash, and place it at 30-45 degree angle away from where you're shooting in relaton to the subject. To get the best results, you'll probably want to have TWO flashes, both at an angle from the subject.
You still won't get "all" great shots, but they will be noticably better than the current setup.
The next step further would be to use proper studio strobes (two or three). Of course, you can no longer just walk into the arena with your camera at this point, but you probably need permission to put up some 6-8 foot tall stands with the strobe on it, and find some power sockets to connect the strobe power unit to, etc, etc... This is similar to how I understand that Kevin Sadler does his job - and horse-shows and that sort of thing is his business... He may well be around to give more advice at some point.

My wife is doing her MBA in H4. My PD is July 2008. Being on H4, you can save a lot of money in fees. And also you never know, If at all the visa re-capture bill is passed, you might able to file I-485. So My advice is to continue on H4.
