House Delays Thorny Energy Issues (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB118221331128639861-search.html?KEYWORDS=immigration&COLLECTION=wsjie/6month) By John J. Fialka, The Wall Street Journal, 19 June 2007
WASHINGTON -- Facing a tight deadline imposed by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Democratic leaders of the Energy and Commerce Committee postponed until the fall House debates on several controversial energy issues, including tougher standards for automobile fuel efficiency.
It wasn't immediately clear what impact the House move toward a simplified, less-controversial energy measure will have on the Senate version of the bill. The Senate is scheduled to debate auto-efficiency standards and a mandate for coal-based liquid fuels on the floor this week.
Rep. John D. Dingell (D., Mich.), chairman of the House committee, and Rick Boucher (D., Va.) chairman of the subcommittee that is preparing its energy legislation, jointly announced they will focus on less-divisive issues, including energy-efficiency standards for appliances, improvements to the nation's electricity grid and incentives for use of wind power.
"This procedure . . . was discussed with the speaker, and she understands the rationale for proceeding this way," the two Democrat leaders said, "so we can rapidly work on a bipartisan bill that can be signed into law."
The turnaround by Rep. Dingell, who has defended Detroit automakers against fuel-saving standards for years, comes as automakers have launched a nationwide lobbying campaign to water down proposed tougher auto-efficiency standards. Rep. Dingell promised to return to the issue in the fall, when the committee is also planning legislation that would regulate carbon dioxide and other emissions that scientists say are accelerating global warming.
While the Senate appears to be pressing ahead, it could face filibuster threats on the auto-efficiency standards and several other items, requiring 60 votes to overcome, a margin that may not be attainable. "One of the questions being discussed is which body goes first with some of these things," a House aide said.
"We have decided to proceed with provisions that represent consensus," Messrs. Dingell and Boucher wrote. The energy subcommittee is scheduled to assemble its new version of the energy bill this week, and the House could debate the completed bill after the July 4 recess. Earlier, Speaker Pelosi (D., Calif.) had asked for an "Energy Independence" bill by July 4.
The House committee also deferred discussion of a low-carbon-fuel standard, similar to California's, which would mandate increasing use of ethanol and other fuels that result in lower CO2 emissions. Another postponed issue is a change in federal law that would block California from establishing its own CO2 emissions standards for vehicles.
The two committee leaders said they were postponing debate because the issues "are complex and difficult."
Democrats are deeply split, with representatives from auto-producing states fighting tougher emissions standards, and the California delegation and liberal factions pushing for them. Coal-state Democrats and environmentally inclined Democrats are on opposite sides over coal-to-liquid fuels, which would emphasize diesel and jet fuels made from coal, a fuel the U.S. has in abundance.

ICE has published an expanded list of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) programs that qualify students seeking a 27 month post-studies employment authorization card rather than the usual 12 month card. The expansion includes a number of new fields which is welcome though the absence of clinical health care fields that are facing critical shortages is not. Given the demand for H-1B visas, the ability to work for 27 months in Optional Practical Training should give American-educated foreign graduate students an advantage over their counterparts overseas, something that makes sense given the fact that the US provided some or...

Hi Friends,
My AP is expering next month(NOV), I don't have any travel plans for next 1 year. i'm planing to apply in 2010 not now.
do i need to apply for extesion for evey year, if don't need also?
thks
There is no AP renewal. You can apply AP later if you are not planning to travel. But AP is for travel during emergencies. It takes time to get the AP approval. Hence people keep it current all the time.

My I-94 and L1A visa expired on October of 2008. I received my I-797A notice of action and my extended I-94, which is valid until June of 2010. My HR manager said I should be ok as long as I don't leave the USA.
I need to travel outside of the United States for one week. Will I be able to re-enter the USA if I show the approved Petition I-129 with the new I-94 and the expired visa?
Or will I need to go to the consulate to get a new visa stamp extended to June 2010 to re-enter the USA?
I will appreciate your help.

Hello?
In Mid 2007, 7th year of H-1B transfer & extension was filed, and was no problem as I had an approved ETA-750 with ex-employer, but it was expired soon as the sponsor�s (ex-employer) company was closed at the end of 2007.
The 7th year approval period was 12/11/2007 ~ 12/10/2008 with the current employer.
I filed another labor certification (ETA-9089) on 10/23/2007 which was sponsored by my current employer, and it has not been approved yet.
Using this ETA-9089 pending more than 365 days, I filed an I-129 extension for 8th year of H1B last November 2008, but INS sent "Request For additional Evidence Sent" letter which was saying to be provided �An evidence of pending / being processed for more than 365 days of labor certification or I-140 prior to 6 year expired of H-1B�. we just realized that a memo was posted regarding this on 05/30/2008.
As I don�t have this evidence... Please advise or recommend me...

First of all I am filing by postal mail USPS(not e-filing)
1)is it necessary to include I-765 receipt notice(EAD) with my AP application.. But I have only my last years one which will expire in a few months.
2) for AP renewal is it necessary to include marriage certificate for spouse
3) When filing by postal mail, and also considering i applied my I-485/I-140 before july 30/2007, old fee schedule... do i need to pay biometric fee for my renewal
4) I am in Texas and for mailing EAD and AP - can I send them together for me and my spouse. I see different PO Boxes for EAD and AP addresses for the Mesquite, TX address
IN I-765, is it enough only to specify the previous EAD information regarding the office filed and receipt date...or do i have to include my OPT EAD as well as my previous EAD filed last year.
Thank you

It is possible to approve I-485 if I-140 is approvable but is not approved. One of my friends got his GC this way.

Is this True --??
It seems USCIS has set a quota of �X� number of 485 applications till SEP �07.Once that quota reaches, dates will retrogress.
After that 485�s will be processed by PD and not by RD.

Hi,
I have a pending I-140 (RD March 12, 2007) and I-485 (PD Sept 2001, India EB-3, Current in April 2008).
My wife and I, currently have EADs. My wife has been offered a job and they need a Green Card when she joins in May 2008.
Is there a way to expedite the processing of I-140 and I-485, so that we do get our Green Cards in next month or so?
