I did this recently for my Parents in Laws. I checked the do not apply for native name. Also i don;t think there is an option to print the entire form, only the last confirmation page is to printed and taken for the interview.
The form once completed is saved in consulate's database, so they know what you have filled.
Hope this helps.

dude couple reasons listed above, other reasons from the various posts on this topic.
1) UCIS not applying law AC21 in 2006. This law allowed more than 7% visa to over subscribed countries.
2) Too many labors comming from back log center. Thus UCIS guess latter in the year their will be more demand of EB2s.
3) Lot of people have switched to EB2 from EB3
4) The formal retrogression phenomenon started around 2003.
Things which can fix this situation are:
1) Law by US govt to add more visas this year.
2) US govt force UCIS to apply AC21 and let Indians and Chinnesse use additional visas rightaway.

Just on the lighter note I wonder if even USCIS ignores that mistake and give you and your co-worker's wife a GC.

Very well said. Nancy Pelosi was very assiduous in bringing a resolution on Armenian Genocide that happenned over 100 years ago!! So, she may NOT have time to work on "Current" world matters!
My post is not intended to lighten the Armenian Genocide event.
Have you watched "Ararat", the movie? You will understand why the particular issue is important for Armenians. Let us just focus on high skilled legal immigration. :)

Is there anything i can do on H4 visa??
You can volunteer your time for IV and help .
You can also expand your family . Do not wait and put your life on hold due to your visa status.

Guys,
this doubt is bugging me due to recession fears.
if someone is on h1 status & have filed 485 in july 07. what happens when due to recession he/she is out of job (NO PAYROLL) for 3-4 months.
will the person have problems during 485 approval?? whats the possible negative that can happen in such god not willing situation

Who has told you that he is on H1B. He could be on L1B also. Anyone can qualify under L1B.
TO NID
I think it's best to get an evaluation from wes.org and then go to the university to know how many credits you can get through this evaluation.
TO SUVA
No body told me it's common sense dude.. look at his profile EB3 India.. Jun 03 waiting for I-485, best person is NID who can answer. I dont expect a clarification from you SUVA. becaue you are also ignrant about whether he is L1 or H1B??? right

For a person holding a 10-year multiple entry B1/B2 visa, how long can they stay for each visit. Is it determined at the port of entry by the officer? or is there a standard like 30 days or something per visit? I know parents visiting can stay for max of 6 months. Can they travel across to canada and then reenter for another 6 months? Just curious.

What is the difference between L1B and H1B? Why don't companies hire on L1B when H1B's are over? Thanks.
Macaca:
These are the descriptions for L visas.
L-1A/L-1B.
An L-1A is an alien coming temporarily to perform services in a managerial or executive capacity for the same corporation or firm, or for the branch, subsidiary or affiliate of the employer who employed him or her abroad for one continuous year within the three-year period immediately preceding the filing of the petition, in an executive, managerial or specialized knowledge capacity.
An L-1B is an alien coming temporarily to perform services that entail specialized knowledge .......
All it takes is a greedy lawyer to get them.:mad:

Depends on EB2 or Eb3 and country of birth. For Indians, it is a long-long wait unless a relief bill passes.

Hi,
My advice is to stick with the same company till u get ur ead. If you move, any company will take 6 ~ 8 months to start the PERM process. I noticed that companies do mention that they will start as soon as you come on board but that never happens as they know your visa status.
I switched companies after 140 was approved at a big company and I paid the price by joining a startup which closed but I moved on before it closed.
I have yet to file PERM but I get to retain my PD
It is my personal opinion based on my experience. Most of the employers don't keep up their word as promised.
Hi,
I just started my 5th year on H1-B (EB-2) at a very large software firm. I also have a Masters degree from a good university etc. I was delaying filing my PERM (part stupidity and partly thinking of changing my job). Now, I received information from the company that new PERM applications may be impacted because we had layoffs recently. Although I am not personally aware of anyone with my job title being fired, I am wondering if they will wait for 6 months after the layoffs to actually start filing new applications.
I am new to this, and this may be a simple question. What usually happens? Do they put off all PERM applications for 6 months after layoffs? Does this mean that companies that have not had layoffs can continue to file PERM applications?
I ask this because I am thinking that maybe then I should look for a company that has not had layoffs (best of luck to me, right? :) I think there's a couple out there :) ). If I do go down this route, can I start a PERM application immediately or do I have to work at the company for a while before I can do this?
I am also worried that the PERM could get delayed by 6 months or more because there might be more layoffs. If there are further delays in the time to be approved (more than a year), then I might be cutting it really close as far as my H1-B term goes. Is anyone in a similar situation? Am I at risk here? What happens if PERM filing is in process when H1-B duration comes to an end? Do I just have to leave?
A lot of these are maybe newbie questions, but I am kind of worried and I would appreciate it if you can contribute answers to whichever questions of mine that you are familiar with.
Thanks

i invoked ac21 twice..never asked even a single question to the employers, infact my current job title is not even close to the job title that my labor was filed long time ago, i am very confident, i will change my mind and go back to india for good, before my PD of jan 2003-India becomes current. just cant ruin my career and life thinking about things that are not in our control..just my opinion, not an advice. if u get struck with a sick job for years due to the GC mess, it justifies itself for all these decisions. even if they issue an RFE and my GC gets denied, i care a less about it, cos it lost its importance when it took this long..atleast i am doing some work right now which will help my career on a long term basis.

Hi GCCOVET,
What will happen in the below scenario
Company A sponsered GC, 140 approved and 180 days passed filing 485
if we shift to company B using H1 transfer should the new job on H1 be same/similar to GC job?
Thanks,
Krishna
ss205 answered the question correctly (in my opinion).

Hey Gurus,
What are the chances for ROW-EB2 to go backlog in OCT 2007. My wife's employer is filing for the LABOR this month. We are keeping our finger's crossed that it will be current in OCT this year.
What do you guys think about that? Thanks.

We gave for fingerprints 5 days back but our LUD on I-485 is not yet updated. Is this common?
I-485 receipts from NSC.
Most of my friends LUD is updated within 2 days of giving finger prints.
Please post your experiences.
