I am starting this thread after I experienced that CIS Ombudsman is actively helping EB as well as other immigrant community in getting their problems with USCIS resolved very quickly. We are fortunate to have such a platform to log our problems and get solution.
I am sure many of us have received similar help from the office of CIS Ombudman. Please thank them.
Thanks CIS Ombudsman for all your help.

What I say should not be construed as any form of legal advice but based on what I know I list the following things.
1. Most likely if you are in EB3, your labor PERM application would have only required things that qualify you for EB3. So the same labor cannot be used to file for EB2.
2. You should go ahead and file for I-140. It is imperative that you be employed in the same/similar job as your EB3 application when I-140 is filed for, in case there is an RFE (request for evidence).
3. Once your I-140 is approved, I think you get some flexibility in moving within the organization and you could be moved to a role with different job requirements. These job requirements might qualify you for a EB2 job role. You can then file for a EB2 labor PERM(job postings, application etc). Once this labor is approved, when you file the I-140 for this, you can ask that the priority date be ported. Most certainly there will be an RFE for this I-140 application. Some employer attroneys (esp those conservative) require that for new Labor to be filed, your job role must be more than 50% different to be justified in case of a RFE.
Step 3 might also require an amendment to your H1B. I am not very sure about how exactly this goes. Potentially, I think you can also change employer and apply again from new employer as long as the I-140 is not revoked by the previous employer.
I hope this helps.

Hi, I just got my LC approved after about 7 months of waiting as EB3, My PD is Sep 08. Its now time to start filing for the I-140, what can I do to port my EB3 to EB2? (I'm from Europe and I have 6 years of work experience and a MS Finance degree from a US university).
Do I need to "change" job within my company?
Do I need to redo all the work (job postings, PERM application etc) even that I have my LC approved?

Translate it. Sign a letter of your compretence of English ? Hindi language & get it notarized. It is that easy. Do not waste a signle penny on translation. I have been doing it for ages.

Just me doing the translation will do? And how do I demonstrate the "competence" to do that? :confused:
And yes, I am totally new to IV. The way it has been effective, I will surely contribute... :)

@Raysaikat, Paskal.
thanks for your prompt replies.
Sorry I didnt make it clear about changing status to visitors visa. I am aware that it will not be an automatic switch.
I am wondering how difficult it is to switch to visitors visa status or to extend H1b for few months? Do people have high success rate or is it full of hassle (trying to extend stay on visitor/H1 status)?
ABIM board is an exam we take after finishing residency. I would prefer to finish it now immediately after residency.
I will try to meet up with an attorney in near future and discuss these issues, will be glad to share any new important info.
thanks.

Hello Attorney,
My family and I fortunately got the green cards this week after a long wait. But the company where I have been working since
2001 is not doing well due to cash flow issues. Note that I never changed company since I came to the US in 2001. I have not been paid salary for the last few months. I am the last employee of the company and seems like this company may go bankrupt soon.
Luckily my wife works as Independent Contractor (Not a full time employee) and I have a part time business which are supporting my family for the last few months. My business is related to finance and investments which is different from the GC approved job profile.
Can you please help me by answering following questions.
1) What are the precautions I should take to protect my green card?
2) Can I leave the present company and start my business by forming an LLC?
3) My business is online based so I can work from my birth country India for a few months. Can I visit India for a few months until my business is fully developed?
4) Since my business is different from the GC approved job profile, will it cause any difficulty during citizenship process?
5) A friend on the forum told that it may be required to work in your labor certified job (even with diff employer) for 6 months. Can I go to India for 6 or 7 months by taking leave from the same company ( i.e without leaving the company) ? I can manage with my part time business income during this time. In this case, just working for the same job profile is sufficient or do we need to show any pay stubs (or w-2) during citizenship process?
6) Can I take re-entry permit and develop my business from India for a year and come back to the US after 1 year?
Thanks for your help in advance

My two cents are that you should attach your receipt notice for I-485 and approved I-140 along with your spouse's application right now instead of waiting for his/her receipt notice. BTW, this is based on an opinion of attorney I consulted.
I don't think that your spouse's I-140 has to do anything with interfiling. You application will be interlinked to your spouse's application based on I485. Also, since you are just interfiling, you both will remain primary on your respective applications with no derivatives. You won't become a derivative just by interfiling. Thats the benefit of filing separately so that who so ever has the PD current first, the spouse benefits from it even though his/her PD is not current.
I don't understand why your attorney is recommending to interfile when you have an option to let USCIS know right away where to put your spouse' I-485 file. I recommend you to take a second opinion if you have a doubt.
Thanks

If he is done with FP, I don't see any issue. Typically USCIS allows grace period as long as you are within the 180 period but since this case is > 180 days, then consult a lawyer to file 245k

Very true ! I am not sure what the moderators of Murhty forum are up to but yes the forum has been hijacked by a few very rude members. BTW, one of their very famous members have been banned from another very popular Attorney forum for rude (and illogical) posts and now happily continues name calling and rude language in Murthy forum.
Good, so I'm not the only one who feels that Murthy is dominated by uncivilized conversations. IV came as such a breath of fresh air because everyone here is polite and agree to disagree in a civil manner.
BTW is that famous member "J***f"....lol. He's been getting bashed at Murthy a bit too lately. He's like a schoolyard bully who just enjoys pouncing on people and giving unnecessary gyan.

Thank you,
Per my lawyer, you can file FOIA, although it could take time. As long as you are moving to "similar" field, you should be fine.

Feinstein, Lofgren use Iraq spending bill to push for guest-worker program
05-15) 19:18 PDT Washington - -- Two of California's most immigrant-dependent industries - agriculture and Silicon Valley - are pushing narrow measures through Congress in an effort to employ foreign workers at opposite ends of the labor market, people who pick vegetables and the postgraduate engineers and scientists of Silicon Valley.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein attached a farm guest-worker program to the giant Iraq spending bill today in a last-ditch effort to remedy a shortage of workers in California's produce fields as the federal government continues to crack down on illegal immigration and the political climate proves hostile to more sweeping measures.
Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-San Jose, teaming with Republicans, is pushing several bills to give permanent residence to top engineering talent.
"It's an emergency," Feinstein said of the farm worker situation. "If you can't get people to prune, to plant, to pick, to pack, you can't run a farm."
Her addition to the Iraq spending bill would give temporary legal status to 1.3 million farm workers over the next five years, but it would provide no path to citizenship or permanent residency. It passed the Senate Appropriations Committee 17 to 12 today.
Workers applying for the program would have to prove they had worked on U.S. farms for at least 150 days or 863 hours, or had earned at least $17,000, during the last four years. They would have to remain working in agriculture for the next five years, when the program would expire.
The move marks an end for now to efforts to give farm workers a path to citizenship after a sweeping immigration bill crashed in the Senate last June. Feinstein has been trying all year to attach a bill called AgJobs but has met nothing but dead-ends.
Western Growers, representing California farmers, and the United Farm Workers of American union joined in backing the bill. Western Growers President Tom Nassif said large growers are accelerating efforts to move their farming operations to Mexico. The 15 growers out of several hundred who responded to a survey and were willing to talk about their plans moved 84,000 acres worth of crop production to Mexico this year, twice as many acres as last year, Nassif said.
"Once the acreage moves to Mexico, it's there permanently," Nassif said. "Much of the remaining open space in California is agricultural land. If it's not farmed, we'd be growing condos or cementing it over with office buildings."
The tightening of the border has made it increasingly difficult, dangerous and expensive for laborers to return to the United States if they leave, disrupting the traditional circular flow of farm workers from Mexico to California's fields in the Salinas and Central valleys. Most farm workers arrive illegally, and farmers complain that an existing guest worker program called H2A is cumbersome and ineffective. Feinstein's bill would streamline that program's rules.
Growers are apprehensive about a new administration effort, temporarily stopped by a federal court, that would require employers to match workers with a valid Social Security number or be heavily fined. The Department of Homeland Security is refining the rule to get past court objections.
United Farmworkers President Arturo Rodriguez said farming is facing "a very real emergency" and applauded the bill as a "critical but temporary fix to a much larger problem."
Feinstein acknowledged that the chances of getting the bill all the way through Congress, even attached to war spending, is "uphill all the way."
On the other side of the Capitol, Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-San Jose, is teaming with conservative Republicans to try to push similar discreetly targeted measures for Silicon Valley. She has dropped efforts for now to expand the controversial H-1B program for temporary high-skilled workers, which again this year ran out of its 85,000 visas on the first day they were released. Lofgren said the program needs changes, given its wide use by Indian offshoring companies.
Instead, Lofgren has introduced a passel of five small-bore immigration bills, among them one that would allow masters' and doctoral graduates from U.S. universities to apply immediately for permanent residence, skipping the H-1B program altogether.
"Most people would agree if you get your Ph.D in engineering from an American university, you've got something to offer this country," Lofgren said. "Right now, we have no ability to keep those people here ... we send them home to compete against Americans. It would make more sense to keep them here to help us compete."
Lofgren has even teamed up on one bill, to "recapture" unused permanent resident slots, with Rep. James Sensenbrenner, the Wisconsin Republican famous as the author of immigration crackdown legislation, never enacted, that was so harsh it led to the nation's first large-scale Latino protests in 2006.
"What's happened is that with the shortage of very high-level people, multinational companies are sending their project teams offshore," Lofgren said. "Not only the top hot-shot leading the team, but all the support jobs that go with that hot shot. Among the people I've met is a guy who spent four years at Harvard, seven at Stanford's engineering school, then did practical training and has been here six years on an H1B, and he's in limbo. He's an extremely talented person and has no idea what his future is going to be. He's being recruited in Australia and Europe, and he's ready to bail out. What he needs is not more temporary time."
Members of the Silicon Valley Leadership Group of business executives spent Thursday lobbying Congress on high-skilled immigration and tax breaks for solar energy and research and development.
"This is no time to say to high-skilled workers in a global economy that we don't want you," said Barry Cinnamon, chief executive of Akeena Solar in Los Gatos. "We're happy to have that argument with anyone."

There's definitely something fishy about the way these events took a sudden turn. It's all surfacing now. USCIS certainly needs to have transparency in the way they performs their duties. This is entirely unacceptable.

1a) Both translated and original are needed and might be sufficient. As of my knowledge, they are issuing them in local language and English currently in my native place.
1b) DOB Cert by itself from the Consul's office will not be sufficient.
1c) Every 485 applicant needs DOB certificate. So your wife does.
3a) It depends on a variety of things like if you had chicken pox before or not. If you had been to school in US and have any immunization record / some sort of health record you submitted to them when you came in, the doctor might accept it. AFAIK, It is a 1 hr process how ever appointments might be 2 weeks away :)
3b) Tests are valid for one year.

Just how bad is the backlog? (http://imminfo.com/Blog/articles.php?art_id=100&start=1)
Our office is but one of many receiving these inquiries. I have to believe that somewhere between 7,500 and 12,000 people are actively in the process of upgrading their preference classifications right now. As the months progress, this number will increase. All of these people will move onto the EB2 waiting list with older priority dates, in some cases as early as 2002. When this happens, it will push those with more recent priority dates back in line, increasing the time they must wait for visa availability
..........

This is a long shot in today's scenario, not many companies are filing GC let alone conversion to EB2.
In short, EB3 is doomed....
