Thread: Celebrations & Thanks

  1. #101
    Thanks Q - I only wish, I had this forum when '07 fiasco happened

    On a separate note, I am already working for the sponsoring employer, but when are they supposed to offer me the prevailing wage? I informed them of CPO, and they just said update I-9 once you receive GC, and stayed quiet on the salary revision

    Thanks

    They are supposed to give you prevailing wage since when you joined them on this job. Looks like you are already working in the job the GC was filed for. If they haven't then there is a good chance they have already committed either fraud or crime.

    I no longer provide calculations/predictions ever since whereismyGC.com was created.

    My H1 position and PERM positions are slightly different (Are you talking about H1 wage or PERM wages?) They are paying me the H1 prevailing wage, but now that my GC has been approved, they ought to pay up the PERM prevailing wage right? If yes, when does that start? When my I-9 is updated? When my GC is approved?

    Thanks

  4. #104
    If H1 and PERM positions are different then the employer needs to pay H1 wage or higher while on H1 and PERM wage or higher after GC.

    If you doing the PERM job now - then you must get PERM wage. If you are still doing the H1 job - the employer is not under obligation to give you PERM wage. However the employer is kind of under obligation to USCIS that they will give you the PERM job and wage. Because that's how they justified your 140 to USCIS.

    The question is what constitutes starting the PERM job? Updating my I-9? If that is all is needed, then I'd have to be paid PERM Prevailing wage as soon as my updated I-9 hits their system?

    Thanks

    Could not have said it better.. My attorney claimed that he has had 35 years of experience but he balked when I asked him to file interfile..
    He finally did when NSC send a RFE..

    Thanks to everyone who made this forum available to us

    Greened

    Hello,

    Just wanted to extend my "Thanks" to everyone in this forum who have contributed in helping me understand the process and provide their valuable input in analyzing the possibility of date movements. Me and my wife were Greened last week and have recd our GC in hand. For me it was Q's prediction (that dates will remain same for the month of Oct and Nov 2013 )that helped me continue expecting "green" this yr (EB2I retrogression will happen on Dec 01st 2013).

    Congratulations mannyt! Happy for you and enjoy the freedom.

    p.s. You certainly stoked my ego! But you know what Teddy said this to me once - that even if we could help one single person in a very small way - that's quite gratifying!

    Q,

    There is another saying "Give Credit where Credit is due". In my case it is most certainly to you and your initiative.

    Thanks,

    Got Greened!!

    Dear Freinds

    I received text at 12:12pm today, July2nd,2014.
    My status changed to "card/document production'.
    PD Aug152008 EB2I NSC.
    send RFE response on June 16th.
    Both I and wife got it exactly same time.

    Thanks a lot to everyone. Spec, Q, Matt, sports..viz..
    Please move this to wish and celeb when its appropriate.

    I assume I will get card in mail within 1 week considering July4th weekend?
    I did not receive RFE myself, only my attorney received it. Is it possible that only attorney gets my GreenCard or will I get that?



    Thanks again.
