there are lot of threads abt this topic. search it.

read form I-131 instructions, where it clearly says, AP appl. is considered abandoned if you leave US before its approval. this is for sure.




My wife is not H4, she is working on EAD and we applied her I-485 last July. She has to travel to India for an emegency. We applied for AP last month, have the receipt but it is not approved. Is it okay if she travels to India without AP approval? I will be here and I can take her approved AP when I go there after two months.

I heard that if she travels without AP, her I-485 is considered abonded. Is this true? Can we apply for her H4 (as I am still on H1). Any advice on how to get her back?

Thanks!

You idiot, this is your third post in last 10 minutes about your deleted post. Big deal! if your question was deleted, or, if you are not able to find your post???

It seems you want others to spoon feed you everything. Stop this bickering and stop complaining. Stop taking offense from nonsensical things, grow-up and look at the bigger picture.

Mr. Sanju,

We are all aware of what going on at the Senate floor and also about the ammendments that put forth on the floor. So my question is clear anc simple what ammendment is supported by CORE IV and what are we looking for.
Because the passing of the current version of the bill will effect all the old cases which many people are in and I wont allow that to happen. I will try my best to avoid this situation to happen. Even though i have a MAster in engineering I will not support SKIL progran that will void the previously pending cases. Good try core IV yto make member to work towards the betterment of few people You know what such people are called" SELFFISH". Guys beware on whaT ACTIONS YOU ARE DOING SO THAT YOU WONT REPENT.

How many of these 7 toppers are from Telengana and how many are from your district?

This news is not related to immigration but one about Tri Valley University is. About 1000 students, mostly from Andghra pradesh face deportation for immigration fraud.

Hi myeb2gc ,

You added lot of hope in this H1 extn process but for how long did you got ur H1 extn ?


Hi, i got it for 2 years 10 months, but not 3 years even after having approved 140.But it seems ok...

Thanks for the response, folks.

It will be interesting to hear from people who have or are required to sing certain contracts with their employers.

I am assuming the employers logic can be that - "well we were the ones who really paid for your labor cert" and that may be true as far as DOL is concerned. But my logic is if I reimburse you that money a year or two down the line, doesn't that mean that eventually I had to pay for my labor cert :)

I am also interested to know what kind of contracts the employers are having people sign - reimburse us if you leave within a certain time frame (2 or 3 years from when your GC process was initiated by the company) or are the contracts more like - reimburse us full amount no matter when you leave during pending GC process.

My sister got her H-1B in 2008 but didn't work for her employer due to health problems. After about 3 to 4 months she left for India and recovered. Over there she joined a multi-national who sent her on B1 this year. (She already had traveled on B1 from a very old employer and used that).

Now after coming here on B1, she has a job offer from an Indian MNC. My understanding is that the MNC will have to file two petitions:

1. A Change of Status from B1 to H1B
2. A I-129 requesting H-1B (or H-1B transfer)

Question -
a) Can she start working for the Indian MNC after filing both of these two, or will we have to wait for both approvals?

b) Do we require paystubs from the original H-1B employer from 2008 for H-1B transfer? My understanding is that paystubs are usually required to establish one is currently in status, but she is on B1 right now and not H1B.


Attorneys, please advise.

Much thanks in advance,

Select Service on a exisiting request, then last option, i cant remember what was it...

Guess what I discovered today? I found the filled in W7 form and notarized copies of my wife's passport in my house. All this while I was so confident that I did send the W7 form along with tax return form, but it turned out I forgot to do so :(. I called IRS and they told me that I need to fill in Amended Tax Return form (Form 1040X) now. On the contrary, my tax preparer (CPA) is saying I just need to resend Form 1040 and W7 and there is no need to amend as there is no change in figures. Whose words should I follow now? Please advise.

In my view, you would have to file form 1040X since IRS processed your original 1040 after changing it to married filing separately.

I lost my major young life on green card (around 9 years) and I can just am pray that my labor will be used only for myself and not others.

LABOR SUBSTITUTION SHOULD BE ELIMINTED RIGHT AWAY.

ALL OF THEM WHO USED OTHER'S LABOR SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED COMPLETELY AND SHOULD BE GIVEN VISA NUMBERS LAST.


LABOR SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO CONTINUE FROM COMPANY TO COMPANY OTHERWISE COMPANY CAN PURPOSEFULLY FIRE EMPLOYEE TO GIVE OR SELL LABOR TO OTHERS.

Below comments have gone to comments for elimination of labor substitution.

TOP 10 reason to support rule to eliminate labor substitution.

1> So many years, labor applications were misused completely. Many Companies were filing fake labor and were using for anyone elsewith lower educated, lower experience people who wanted GC within 6 months instead of normal 4 to 6 years. It is like stealing someone's pocket.

2> One was waiting for years hoping his labor will get approved and after his labor was approved, company used for another person demonstrating complete exploitation of system.

3> Many company started selling labor applications as key business

4> Many companies were giving too less salary indicating that if employee joins with minimum salary and if they sign 6 years of bond then company will use USA's approved labor for anyone.

5> Most of the companies started asking money from employee. So if employee is saving $6000 per year, they have to work for free for entire year if they want GC.

6> Why one need to substitute labor when they can file new labor for new person anyway.

7> Companies started threatening employees that if employee don't do what they say, they will use his/her labor for other and he will loose all 2 or 3 years of labor approval. Why not...it was legal to take labor back and use it like playing cards!!

8> Everyone knew that they can buy approved labor and get their GC in few months and original owner will loose years.

9> Who is going to audit whos labor was used how ? Nobody in past from government asked or audited as how come one's GC came so fast and others with better capabilities/education took 5 times. Nobody in past from government asked or audited as if employee was important then why company never filed labor for him and all of sudden used pre-approved labor to have that employee.

10> Companies used to stock labor applications like grocery (actually like
gold...can buy/sell anytime !)...after all labor application is cheap and shortcut to save 2 to 3 years and sell in blackmarket.

I have a couple of questions:
1. In the AP application form, there is a question on when you intend to travel. What should I enter there when I am only applying for some future travel and am not sure about the dates?
2. I had worked on OPT after my graduation before switching to H1 visa. So when I apply for EAD now, should I apply as a renewal applicant or a new applicant? Is OPT the same as EAD?

thanks.

We can do it in New York city for new york residents....Any thoughts?

Gurus,

Guide me. I am planning to apply for Canada Green Card (Permanent Resident). What I am going to do is.

1) Just download the application forms from Application for Permanent Residence in Canada [IMM 0008SW] from the website and just apply without any representative

Question is

1) Do I need a representative as this is a backup to US GC.
2) I dont have any Canadian temp work visa
3) How much bank Balance I need ?

Please clarify

Thanks Sanjay02.

Another follow-up question.. I'm planning to file for EAD, which passport number should I use in this form ?
If I use new one(which is valid), isn't it in contra with AOS application?

Has anyone faced this situation ?

At the time of filing anything, give what is current.

USCIS knows this issue and thats the reason, they don't keep passport as a parameter in decision making, except a rule that it should be valid for n months while you file an application.

Plus, when you get a renewed passport, in the last page, your old passport number and file number are written in the "comments/notes" column to help officers to refer the old links.

I had filled A # from I-140 in my 485 application form, but my 485 receipts shows different A #, both my I-140 and different number from 485 receipt starts with 088, I am primary applicant and my spouse's A # are different too and her numbers also starts with 088.

Are you 100% sure about this.

I am

You can use the services of some CPA since you have so many changes in status and deductions to claim plus filing of ITIN for your wife. When I changed status from F1- H1 I used the CPA since I was not sure if I would be able to do it right. Better to go to an experienced CPA rather than H&R block kind of people. PM me if you want details of the guy I use.

Timing is everything........... that window of opportunity has passed, luckly we were able to use it to our advantage this time.


Trying to use the same method again will backfire for sure

I was wondering what one would see in the online case status if an RFE/NOID is issued. Anyone has any text that would appear on the Case status application?
