Your mother must rely on the I-94 and file an extension if she wants to stay more than 3 months. The extension can be filed any time before the I-94 expires.

Dallas-Fort Worth Immigration Lawyer Has Just Posted the Following:
Nearly 300 illegal immigrants with criminal convictions were arrested last week in Texas, the Dallas Morning News (http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/texassouthwest/stories/022510dnmeticeraids.1572cfa1e.html) reports. The largest number of arrests, 119, were in North Texas. According to the article:
Of the total, about half of the immigrants had convictions for violent crimes or drug offenses. Most of the crimes were committed in the United States, authorities said.
The arrests, though, raises questions about why the immigrants hadn’t been deported earlier, immediately after they'd served their time for criminal convictions.
A new program, called Secure Communities, seeks to link jail staff with federal data banks to ensure that those with criminal convictions are removed from the country. There are only 110 jail locations in the country that now use the program.
Secure Communities has come under scrutiny for the relatively low number of persons caught who have been convicted of violent crimes – or what’s known in ICE as a "level one" offense.
Carrollton, Farmers Branch, Irving, Mesquite and Dallas and Denton counties are among the jurisdictions using Secure Communities processes. The program began in November 2008.

Hi all, not sure if this has been posted in any other thread, if so, Admin please delete.
I was surprised to get a letter in mail from USCIS today dated March 26th referring my letter sent to White House from IV letter campaign.
Basically it says the letter was forwarded to USCIS from White House and after they researched my case, it is still under name check and my PD is not current yet for a visa. They also included three inserts on fact sheet about name checks-why and how, new memorandum on name checks that has been discussed here and the March/08 visa bulletin showing that my priority date is not current.
Just basic stuff but I wonder if these are being sent to everyone that sent a letter to the President during the campaign. Anyone else received the letter?
Anything on 2 year EAD?

Alright all,
Celebrating the good news here.
Question: Did anybody receive confirmation about their AOS applications being returned after filling in early July (Say on the 2nd or 3rd)? I know there have been rumors about a few returned applications but I haven't actually found anyone in such situation + my attorneys confirmed today that USCIS specifically instructed not to return/reject them.
An answer will magically appear after you have contributed to the IV cause.

You can transfer your status from H1 to F1 using a "change of status" form. The main issue is getting the F1 visa stamp. In the visa application form, there is a question which asks whether anybody has filed an immigrant petition on your behalf. As I-140 has been applied/approved, you will have to answer yes for that question. This will show immigrant-intent: but F1 visa is strictly non-immigrant intent - you have to show that you are not planning to stay in US. <--- You will have issues proving this.
I don't think that you will have any issues if you don't go for visa stamp and stay in US during the duration of your studies.

If one changes to a new employer after 180 days,
How much support (documentation etc) does he/she need from the ex-employer or the ex-employers attorney?
After 180 days, so I assume I'll have the receipt notice and hopefully EAD and AP (also have I-140 copy).

Looks like EB2 India took a backward step. Not sure of the other categories as I am more interested in this category.

Hi,
I am relocating to a different city and my current employer, who started my Green Card process, is ready to offer me job as a consultant. This would be a tele-commuting / remote position. I would be paid on an hourly basis -- 40 hours per week.
I am currently on H1B visa, but also have a valid EAD.
Would accepting this offer be ok for my ongoing green card process? Any ideas on how I can approach this offer? Or would I be better off looking for a another permanent position with some other company.
Would you please let me know your thoughts.
Thanks!

A friend of mine has PhD in aeronautics from a top tier university here in US. He will be soon starting teaching in a university and planning to file his GC under EB-1.
Are there any risks in getting I-140 approved under EB-1? or just having a PhD does not automatically qualify anyone under EB-1 category.?
Since he is born in India so reluctant to file under EB-2 due to endless wait.
Generally, Just having a Phd degree is not enough to file for EB1. Every case is different, sometimes, it depends on the field of study also - so, consulting an experienced attorney is recommended.

Just checking: How many of us got the COPIES of 485 petetion filed by attorney. I asked my attorney to send me copies of petition filed and the supporting documents submitted (filed on 6/29 and delivered 7/2: July VB). Despite calling and writting couple of times since the filing, I have NOT got the copies to make sure if filing was okay. we provided all info and documents required.
My question: 1) Is it a common practice for attorneys to supply a copy of filed petion to clients. 2) How many people got copies.
It helps to do some introspection. Please, let us know
