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).

Guys:
Our( my wife of H4 and me on H1) currently have visas stamped till end of Feb'07.
Now, I am going to file for my extension.
The question is that if my wife travels out of US before end of Feb, according to my lawyer we do not need to file foe her extension.
When she is to come back the lawyer says that she would get her H4 visa based on either my pending application or approved extension.
Is this possible, that without filing for her extension she can get her H4 in Delhi stamped, based on my extension application..??
Please share your thoughts.. I am perplexed..!!!
Thanks

My employer filled EB-2 PERM for me on 12/2007.
My I-140 is approved on 07/2008.
Now I am worry about losing my job.
If this happens, maybe I will switch to NIW pathway later.
Now I wonder whether NIW can use the PD of PERM?
My attorney is not sure about this.
Anyone here succeed in this?
Thank you very much!
AFAIK, your PD can be used across any EB - 1, 2, or 3 categories and not EB- 4 and 5. So in my opinion, you should be able to port your PD.

Hello all,
I had my 140 reinstated in Feb-09 after it was denied back in 08 (filed motion to reopen). Last week i inquired about the status of my case since my visa category is current (VB 02/2003), I received a letter yesterday informing me that the case is out of the processing date, my 140 priority date is 12/2002. is this a mistake or my priority date has change to feb-09?
Hi,
Processing Date is different from Priority Date. What is your I-485 Receipt Date?

I agree that an error in name order on an EAD is not likely to cause any major problems. However, You can apply for a replacement card by filing another I-765. If the error on the EAD is due to a USCIS mistake, no fee is required. However, if you caused the error by providing incorrect information, then you will have to pay the full $340 filing fee again.

You are so fortunate. My priority date is May 2006, but my I-140 was only approved & received by NVC last January. We have similar question. I hope the statement from the FAQ of NVC (check http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/types/types_1309.html) will help us.
---------------------------
Why don't you have my case at NVC yet?
When you complete a petition (I-130, I-140, etc.) for an immigrant visa you send it to Citizenship and Immigration Services in the Department of Homeland Security for approval. If the [B]CIS approves the petition they will send you a Notice of Approval (I-797) and then they will send the petition to NVC. There is a delay between when you get the Notice of Receipt and the Notice of Approval from CIS and also between when you get the Notice of Approval and when NVC receives the petition. After NVC receives the petition, we will create a case record and assign a case number. We recommend that you wait at least three weeks after you get your Notice of Approval before calling NVC if you have not heard from the Center by that time.
----------------------------
Am I then safe to assume that the first approved petition to reach the NVC will be processed first? So between us, you go first!

will not stamp visa if passport validity is less than 6 months.
If you renew you will get your old passport back.

Search for the memo 245i
If you have worked illegally for < 6months you may be covered by this..if its > 6 months.. go out of the country and come back in with a new i94..
Contact a good lawyer while filing 485

Probably these are cases that had been processed and were waiting for visa numbers.

No... as long as you can show ties to the US (owning a house, paid taxes, etc) you should be OK. In a situation where a company has sent you overseas, if you have adequate documentation to prove that the company had sent you overseas and you are still on the payroll here, you should be OK. Although, to be safe, I would probably try to make a couple of trips back to the US in a year to maintain resident status.
