USCIC announced the availability of two new grants that are designed to help lawful permanent residents prepare for citizenship and integration in the U.S. This year, nearly $7 million will be made available for education initiatives throughout the country. According to USCIS, these two competitive grant programs will help expand citizenship preparation programs for lawful permanent residents that wish to achieve U.S. citizenship.
Citizenship and Integration Direct Services Grant Program - The first funding opportunity will focus on providing funding for local programs that are currently working to promote the rights and responsibilities of citizenship through direct citizenship preparation programs for lawful permanent residents. Examples of such programs include those with initiatives to prepare lawful permanent residents for the civics and the English reading, writing and speaking portions of the naturalization test.
Organizations interested in applying for this grant opportunity should send a required letter of intent by March 26, 2010 to the following email address: citizenshipgrantprogram@dhs.gov.
Citizenship and Integration National Capacity Building Grant Program- The second funding opportunity will focus on increasing the capacity building initiatives of national, regional and statewide organizations that provide citizenship services in underserved communities. Funding through this grant will assist these organizations in promoting the integration of immigrants in the U.S. through direct citizenship services for lawful permanent residents.
Organizations interested in applying for this grant opportunity should send a required letter of intent by March 26, 2010 to the following email address: citizenshipgrantprogram@dhs.gov.
To apply for either of these programs, visit www.grants.gov (http://www.grants.gov).

NO.
We asked for people to come forward to transcribe the calls. We do not have anyone. I am sure a lot of people waiting for EADs for their spouses will be having well qualified spouses who can volunteer their time. We have lawyers available to be on calls, but people do not even send questions on time when we announce. We organize calls on weekends, and only few people show up. However we get thousands to show up on tracker threads everyday.
We are doing this as a free service to the community. If people do not value it and help us, they can get their own own lawyers and get paid consultation.
We will not be posting recording for people who do not even want to give us a minute and complete their profile so that we can contact them. The service may also be discontinued if members do not see any value in it.

I congratulate everybody for getting the opportunity to file 485.I am truely happy for u guys.
I am one of the very few people who can not apply for 485 as I have just changed my company and labour yet has to be filed.
I just wanted to to know Is it still possible that they will bring some kind of amendment(From CIR bill) which wouldn't allow me to extend my H1 Visa after 6 years?.I am so scared when I read on numberusa that some amendments are coming back to vote.Are we really in trouble?.
I just need some lodgical reasons that it won't happen.
I know everybody is busy but don't forget about people like us.

As far as i know, it dosent matter if you are on EAD or H1b. You can open a bussiness as a investor. You can have profit of that business but you can not generate your payrole or you can not work for that particular business. I will recommend to assist immigration lawyer or CPA.
thank you

My wife and I both came back on AP through Frankfurt on Feb 3rd. We do not have stamped H1-B visas in our passports. You do not need Transit Visa. Transit through Frankfurt is very easy and hassle-free. Security and immigration personnel in Frankfurt are very friendly and nice.
Hope this helps.

You need to find out what type of visa etc etc I don't think she is giving you all the details. You can appeal on anything unless you have broken the law.

Thanks for the suggestions. I called in the National Service Center and put in a request to expedite the case. Got an email that I can try to visit the local ASC and see if they can collect the biometric. We visited the local ASC today and the were kind enough to collect the Biometric. I hope we get the AP before the departure date..

AFAIK, everybody needs to fill out form I-9.
See here (http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-9.pdf).
I'm going to use EAD under 1099 as an independent contractor, My employer asked me to fill only w-9 form when i joined the company.
My employer doesnt know whether i should fill I-9 form (employment verification eligibility) or not?
Anybody have such experiences to share?

You can go to any industry financial, insurance, pharma etc but your job and duties should be similar to your current one. If your current position is *mathematician* and your new job says "consultant" it will catch the officer's attension easily. But from other threads in understood that your job description should be similar to your current ones. Please go thru some IV threads.

The American Immigration Policy Center issued an excellent Fact Sheet about H2A farm orkers and the need for reform.
The Agricultural Job Opportunities, Benefits, and Security (AgJOBS) Act has long served as a blueprint for comprehensive immigration reform. AgJOBS, which combines an earned legalization program for farmworkers with a reform of the H-2A temporary foreign agricultural worker program demonstrates a successful model for compromise where workers and employers have come together to resolve their differences. The dysfunctional U.S. immigration system is currently standing in the way of addressing deeper structural problems that impact U.S. workers and U.S. competitiveness in a globalized market. As Congress proceeds, here are a few facts about the current challenges at the intersection of immigration policy and agriculture, and why addressing these issues is critical to the nation�s economy.
Here is an interesting fact :Most farmworkers are not authorized to work legally in the U.S.
According to the National Agricultural Workers Survey (NAWS), conducted biannually by the Department of Labor, the share of seasonal agricultural workers who reported that they were unauthorized has increased dramatically in the last two decades, rising from 7% in Fiscal Year (FY) 1989, to 16% in FY 1990-91, to 28% in FY 1992-93. In the most recently published NAWS survey from FY 2001-02, 53% of all seasonal agricultural workers admitted they were not authorized to work in the U.S. However, many experts suggest that the number may actually be closer to 75%.

Today, I received an email from USCIS that my EAD application got approved. My receipt date is on the 3rd week of May of 2007. What I don't understand is that the current processing time at NSC for I-765(EAD) for pending I-485 is March 26th, 2007.....

Hi, I have question about my case.
My family was applied I-485 by my mom's working at the company, and all my family had EAD which is working permit and received SSN with that EAD.
However, 2008 January our I-485 have got denied because of sponsor got closed.
That was the before our EAD card gets expired. So I couldn't renew the EAD card.
So My question is, is there any way to renew that EAD now?
if I still want to work, what does I have to do?

Folks,
Some people are reporting Name check / FP cleared status with their signatures. How can one find out the status?

1st time prevailing wage was OK (lower than the salary). This time during extension, prevailing wage is more that the salary, though salary increases over the time. So employer is telling they r not able to renew H1B, because it is hard to increase the salary due to the inequity among employers. What is the solution? Thanks

When the new company (for profit) applies for your wife's H1-B, it will be counted against the cap.
Thanks for confirming this.
