“President Napolitano speaks clearly to me and to the Fondazione Italia USA, as far as my commitment to Amanda, which comforts and motivates me to greater effort because we are coming closer to the the truth, as seems to be happening during the appeal process. I take comfort that even the President of the Republic, with his moral and political authority representing the whole nation, personally follows the case of Amanda Knox and will assess the ‘complexity’ beyond the easy and superficial conclusions that so often emerge in the media.”
MURDER IN ITALY, my book on the spell-binding Amanda Knox case, is a Library Journal Bestseller. Winner of Best True Crime 2010 Editor’s Choice and Reader’s Choice awards. Called “a real-life murder mystery as terrifying and compelling as fiction,” it’s built on diary excerpts, wiretaps, court scenes, trial transcripts, first-hand experience and interviews with key players for all sides.
MURDER IN ITALY is online at Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, Indiebound and bookstores. It’s also a Kindle & ebook. I’ll blog about the Knox case until the final appeal.
Amanda KnoxThe whole process in complicated and needs a lot of back and forth btwn hr/attorney. Most attorney's will take 4-6 months at min.

hot Amanda Knox/MeredithThanks a lot for giving a reply on time.
I hope you realise this is a serious issue. You need to find out from your employer who filed your H1 whether he filed it as a "Change of Status" (COS) petition or "Visa to be issued abroad category".
If it was a H1 COS petition, then you have been accruing unlawful H1 status since your H1 start date as your status automatically changed from H4 to H1 (assuming your approval came with an attached I-94). In this case, you need to get back to H4 status. You can do that by re-entering US on a valid H4 visa (preffered way) or by filing a new H1 to H4 COS petition.
If your H1 petition was not filed under COS (filed under Visa to be issued abroad category), then you are still on H4 status (assuming you have been maintaining a valid H4) and there is nothing you need to do. If you want to convert to H1, then you need to go to a consulate mentioned on your H1 application, attend the H1 interview and re-enter US using H1 stamp.
Hope this helps and you take the necessary action.

amanda knox updateHere is some genuine feedback about USCIS customer service:
1. NCSC is unable to provide any inputs on the actual problem... this becomes a bottleneck.
2. Once an SR is created, no further SR can be created for 30 or 45 days...If you really got to know of an issue with your case from an SR that was first created, how and why is their this expectation that you need to wait for 30 days before which you can get back to USCIS for resolving that problem.
3. NO consistency in the answers provided by USCIS... I had an Infopass, call to NCSC and call to NSC within the span of one hour on the same day... The answers i got to the same question was completely different and completely off in some cases... How can candidates continue to wait and work patiently with USCIS if this continues?
4. Infopass appointment does not seem to help... I go and tell the officer about a problem and the officer says not a problem and just wait... the next time i talk to NSC, they tell me to follow up with an infopass.
Please highlight these points in the session in a constructive manner as a means to improve cusotmer service.
Thanks,

hot of Amanda Knox ( MovieThe president can do very little about this. Indeed he tried. It is the congress .
Did he Really try ? It is a question for debate... Well, he promised something in the first year of the presidency, Well, for Immigration Reform !! Hope and help is still on its way !!! Change is yet to come !!! I do not think, he really put his all or this was one of the agenda with higher priority. Just my 2 cents ! It is just another blame game

he saw Amanda Knox fleeingHi
I have a question regarding my spouse who is on H4 visa.One of the company did H1b processing through "CONSULAR PROCESSING". Her H1B is approved now.
1) She is ready to work from Oct 1st as she got some project.Her employer said that they have to apply for amendment(COS) to get I94.Is this right?
2) How many weeks will it take under premium processing to get new I94
3) Do they have to apply only after Oct 1.
4) Are there any chances of getting rejected at this stage.
Can any one please suggest.
Thanks

Amanda Knox: Murder on TrialMy 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?

amanda knox trial update 2011.Hello,
As was discussed in the past on this forum, USC may have meant something for 20th century, but in 21st, USC does not offer any preferential advantage over other passports (unless you hold passport of problem childs like Iran, Sudan, Cuba etc).
At the end of day, its a personal choice, so let people be happy with whatever citizenship they choose... :)

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.

Hello All,
When I was doing my education (MS) my credit dropped drastically and recently like 2 years back it went for collections too. However I cleared all my credit card debts but it still shows on the credit report that as severe deliquencies and number of open accounts.
Next month I'm applying for AOS - I want to know whether bad credit will have any affect of the approval or denial of the application? :mad:
Any suggestion is appreciated.
Thanks

Picture of Amanda Knox:A quick question for all you experts out there
My wife is on H4 right now and I am on H1, though we got our EAD last year, but I am still using my H1 and not used my EAD yet, So is it possible to apply for Social Security for my wife, will applying for Social Security Number, considered as using EAD and H1 becomes void.
Use of EAD to get SSN is OK. Don't use EAD for work.

hot amanda knox story panel atA Blog reader called me the other day and wanted to know when his priority date will become current. His I-485 adjustment was filed in August 2007 when visas opened up for 30 days, and since that time retrogressed. The applicant is from India and like many others in his shoes is eager for answers. So how do visa numbers become available?
In order to approve an application for adjustment of status (I-485), there must be a visa number available in the particular category. This, in turn, depends upon the country of chargeability and the priority date of the case. Once the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has reviewed a particular I-485 application, a request is submitted to the DOS for a visa authorization. If the USCIS makes the request for a visa number to the DOS when the priority date of a particular case is current, and an immigrant visa number is available, the authorization is transmitted and the USCIS can approve the I-485 application. This is all tracked through the DOS Immigrant Visa Allocation Management System (IVAMS).
If an immigrant visa number for a particular individual is requested from the DOS by the USCIS, but none is available, the request is moved to the "pending" file with the DOS. Data from this pending file is used by the DOS to calculate the appropriate cutoff dates for the backlogged categories in the Visa Bulletin each month.
Cases placed in the pending demand category are processed as immigrant visa numbers become available. The DOS communicates with the USCIS regarding the A numbers of the cases for which visa numbers have been authorized. These cases are then processed to completion and green cards are then issued by the USCIS.
As you can see, this is a very complicated and streamlined process, with actual visa numbers tracked, issued, and assigned to particular green card cases as part of the approval process. Clients often do not understand why they have to wait, sometimes years for visa numbers to open, even after USCIS approvals. We hope that both agencies will find a better way to talk to each other and make the Immigrant visa process and much smoother one.

Yes , we received an RFE letter seems after RFE expiration date. but USCIS online case status still shows case was received and pending. it did not talk about RFE letter was sent
You may consider filing a lawsuit for delays. Talk to a good litigation lawyer.

SBMallik thanks for the reply, as per your link it says,
Yes. Effective March 2, 2009, USCIS will accept premium processing service requests for the Form I-140 Petition category types listed above that are, filed for alien beneficiaries who, as of the date of filing the Form I-907 premium processing request:
Have reached the 6th year statutory limitation of their H-1B stay, or will reach the end of their 6th year of H-1B stay within 60 days of filing;
-- I am in 6th year of stay and 4th year of my H1B stay. Do i fall in to the above category as my H1B expires on Sep 30 2009.
Pls. advice
Thanks
