If both I-94s belong to the same person then I think it is normal.
I entered country last time in 2005. After that I have my H1 renewed twice both times I-94 number stayed the same. Same also goes for my wife. The renewed I-94 always carries the same number as the one you got while entering the country.

This is from my lawyer,
"What Are the Immigration Consequences of the Government Shutting Down?
As Congress continues its budgetary deadlock, the possibility of a government shutdown looms larger by the minute. If Congress is unable to reach accord on Friday, the government will close at midnight, Saturday April 9.
In general, if the government shuts for budgetary reasons, all but "essential" government are furloughed and not allowed to work. So what does this mean for immigration agencies?
USCIS: A couple of shutdown threats back, a USCIS official stated at a stakeholder engagement that USCIS (other than the human touches on E-Verify) would not need to shut down, since all of the agency, other than E-Verify, is funded by fees. However, it is not clear that this is the case, and at least one local office has indicated that it is working on its shutdown plan. We will update as we get more information.
DOS: If there is a shutdown, the result for DOS will likely be the same as it was in the 1996 government closing. Then, the only visa issuance being done was for some diplomats and for "life or death" situations. As DOS is wont to say "a really, really important business meeting is not life or death."
CBP: Inspection and law enforcement are considered "essential personnel," though staffing may be more limited than usual. The borders will be open, and CBP is unsure of how the shutdown will affect the processing of applications filed at the border.
EOIR: EOIR has been advised to "put its shutdown plans in place." As with other agencies, personnel who are not considered "essential" will be furloughed. EOIR has indicated that the detained docket would likely be considered an essential function and would therefore be able to continue in operation.
DOL: DOL is making plans for a possible shutdown. If there is a shutdown, DOL personnel will not be available to respond to e-mail or other inquiries. We do not know at this point whether iCERT/PERM would continue to function. However, because the systems require funding to run, practitioners should assume that they would not be available."

Folks,
Here's my situation: Eb2 India (PD of 24th May 2006), filed 485 ONLY for self in September 2008, got married later and hence wife is not yet added to my 485 application. She is dependent H4 on my H1 visa -- so even though I have EAD, I am NOT using it.
Changing jobs now going to same title, similar job duties. The lawyers at hiring company say I can use my EAD and H1b interchangeably! And my understanding was that the moment I use EAD, my H1B is annulled. Is this not right?
Second question -- the lawyer mentions that even if my date becomes current and we can for some reason NOT get my wife's 485 application in, we can always do follow-to-join without any issues. Has someone had any experience with this. My understanding was that I NEED to make sure my wife's 485 application reaches them on the 1st of the month in which my date is becoming current.
Could someone PLEASE comment on these two questions?
Thank you much!

As most of us know, Senator Specter and the Judiciary Committee passed a bill last night. All the pro-immigrant legislation remained in there (which is a good thing)
Senator Frist had threatened that he will bring his bill to the floor if the Senate Judiciary Committee does not do it. Since the bill passed the committee yesterday, most people assume that the Senate will debate Senator Specter's bill.
WRONG!
As per this news here http://www.boston.com/news/nation/washington/articles/2006/03/28/panel_acts_to_expand_immigrant_rights/?page=full
Despite yesterday's vote, Senate majority leader Bill Frist warned that he may substitute his bill, which only enforces borders, and ask the full Senate to vote on it instead of the far broader and more lenient measure approved yesterday by the judiciary committee.
In any event, a bruising battle on the Senate floor is expected this week. And even if the Senate approves the committee's bill, any measure that appears to provide ''amnesty" to those who are here illegally faces fierce opposition in the House, which in December passed a bill that would erect a fence along the Mexican border and make it a crime to provide social services to undocumented immigrants.
And while President Bush is a strong supporter of a guest worker program, he has signaled hesitancy to allowing undocumented immigrants to gain legal status.
Basically there is NO guarantee which bill comes to the floor. Please update this thread as you find more information about this

Thank you very much, baba84!
Here are description of "a" and "b" or "h". in I485 Part2.
We are supposed to mark one reason for an adjustment to permanent resident.
Part 2 says
I am applying for an adjustment to permanent resident status because:
"a": an immigrant petition giving me an immediately available immigrant visa number has been approved. (Atttach a copy of the approval notice-- or a relative, special immigrant juvenile or special immigrant military visa petition filed with this application that will give you an immediately available visa number, if approved.)
"b": my spouse or parent applied for adjustment of status or was granted lawful permanent residence in an immigrant visa category that allows derivative status for spouses and children.
"h": Other basis of eligibility. Explain (for example, I was admitted as a refugee, my status has not been terminated, and I have been physically present in the U.S. for one year after admission). If additional space is needed, use a separate piece of paper.
Thanks!!!

Hello,
Travisa SF is a small setup ... there is one lady who manages the show (and she may have an asst or two). Your best option is to visit their office in downtown ... somewhere near Market St, I remember.
I had good experience with them for UK visa a few years ago ... good luck!

My attorney signed my I-485 AOS/EAD/AP applications and posted them on July 2nd as he was in a hurry to apply because of July 2nd scenario. Is it ok for the attorney to sign our papers. Is anybody in the same boat as me. I am a little concerned as the USCIS FAQ says application can be rejected if signature is missing. The application reached USCIS on July 3rd.
Yes it is ok for Attorney to sign the papers. Did you authorize them to sign on your behalf?

Definitely a very helpful post - I am sure for many others too!
Reading through this, I couldn't quite figure the immigration requirements of the PAPs - appears that non-citizen residents of the US (NRIs) can also adopt - or am I missing something?

Hello,
My wife is planning to attend for a H4 Visa Re stamping. I have couple of questions regarding the visa application process. Appreciate if you can help me with my questions
1) In DS156 should my answer to the Question� �Has Anyone Ever Files an Immigrant Petition on your behalf� be NO. FYI, my 140 is approved and waiting on 485 priority date. I don�t think I gave my wife�s name yet in my labor or 140 approval process
2) There is a section to be filled in VFS website called� Petition Details from 797/. I assume that principal applicant would be me. However I am not sure what to fill in the following questions
Petition Receipt #
Petition Expiration date
Petitioner Name: I assume it is my company name
Is the above info to be filled in from My 797 ( case type I129)or my wife�s 797( case type I539) Receipt #?
Please advice

I entered on a H4 on my New Zealand passport and it is valid 2010. I now have a H1B ie a I-797A and a new I-94 that is also valid till 2010. I'm leaving the country for the first time to go to Australia.
Do I need to get a new visa stamp for my passport? If I need to get a new visa stamp, do I need to go back to New Zealand or can I do it in other countries?
Can I travel with my passport which shows the H4 visa and carry with me my I-797A and new I-94 to re-enter the country?
Thanks

Philip Wolgin lists on Huffington Post his ideas for smaller items Congress could consider since CIR is effectively dead. Some are obvious, but others less so. They are 1. DREAM Act 2. AgJobs 3. Make the EB-1 category more reasonable. 4. Create a more reasonable bar on those accused of providing material support to terrorists to cover those essentially involuntarily providing the support. 5. Eliminate the one year bar on asylum claims.

The 260k�
God knows or who knows why the fluke in the numbers and a lot hurt but not to forget certain services made the big bucks. On an average 65k/year non-Immigrant VISAS are issued by immigration services. The Dept. of State claims that 60k immigrant VISA numbers exhausted by June 29, 07. The total number of applicants in the rat race should sum up to at least 260k as on June07.
Numbers do the math...
The June07 bulletin priority dates for India trace back to EB3-June03 & EB2-April04. At the same time about combined ~65k*4(June03-June07) = 260k were looking forward to get ahead in the rat race. Assume that 70% of 260k i.e. 182k had approved labors/substitution labor. The 182k caused to exhaust the 60k available immigrant VISAS then still about 102k are left in the air as non-immigrant alien workers.
The suck-more theory�
Since, the bulletin was issued on June 13, 07 (13 = dooms day) ~102k rushed to local stores like Sears, Walgreen, CVS for 2�� * 2 �� passport size photographs. The non-immigrant alien workers spent around 182k* ~$60 = $10.9mil for 6 passport size photographs. This explains why Walgreen (WALG) which was trailing at $43.xx on NASDAQ in May07 shot up to $45 in June07 and suddenly tumbled down to $43.xx after the revised bulletin. Certified civil surgeons to perform medical examination pocketed medical history�s best earnings in a span of 2 weeks raking revenues of about 182k* ~$275 = ~$50mil. NASDAQ touched years best @2650 in June07. Immigration lawyers charge about $1500 for I140 petition. Market rates for immigrant 485 petition is about $1400 for principal applicant and extra $750 for each dependent. Assuming that the average spending of 182k(singles, married, 2/3dependent applicants) amounted to $2000 for I140 and $2000 for I485 this totals to about 182k*$4000 = guess what!! $728mil. This means that there should be tremendous sales of Bentleys, Porsches, Lexus, Audis, BMWs this year. Projected sales of luxury cars should touch around $500mil for luxury cars alone in Q3. Till the next Oct07 bulletin keep the retro-guess-on for numbers.
Thanks and good luck!!
