Hi All,

Firstly, thanks to all my friends and Mods for the help/suggestions given in past.

Please guide in the following situation. My sister is on F1 visa. She went to India taking a semester break. This is her second Masters degree. She initially came on F1 and finished MBA and worked on OPT for 1 year and again joined second Masters and during which she took a semester break and went to India. Her husband is on H1 visa. She wants to apply for H4 visa. What is the procedure? She wants to discontinue her study after she applies for H4. Is this possible? Her next semester starts from June. Is it possible for her to get H4 before June if she applies now(while in India or after coming back) and then discontinue her master from then on? What documents would she need from her husband(pertaining the job) to apply for h4?

Please suggest.

Thanks in advance...

No problem

Hello everyone,

Please shed some light on this

I am going to a different Application Support Center than the one in my notice.

I am trying to locate the Application Support Center (ASC) close to where I live. Is there any information about the location of all the ASCs through out the country in the USCIS site?

If no how should I find/locate the nearest ASC to where I live?

The address of the ASC in my notice is in a different place. I want to go to the one that is near to where I live.

Thanks in Advance

Google it

Its not a surprise to anyone who is member of this forum that how efficient PEBC works!! As a matter of fact I have an excellent example here with my Labor Certification, which I wanted to share with you all.

My company just received a latter titled as "Confirmation of Withdrawal" which states that your Labor Processing Application filed in November xx, 2004 is withdrawn, as requested by your letter dated August xx, 2004.

Isn't that amazing that they are so swamped and desperate in eliminating the backlog that they do not know the chronological order of the dates also?

Backlog Elimination Centers' are the biggest waste of Taxpayers Money, I think.

My check bounced...I did not have enough money in my bank account. What to do? I am so confused.


I remember reading some where that they will try 2 to 3 times to get the check cashed so try put some money in the bank and keep ur fingures crossed.

All the best

Thank you wandmaker. This helps.

- But can a person be unemployed before the 180 days elapse? What happens if person is unable to find a job before 180 days?

- Also, per your information - can the person find a new job, change H1s and then wait for 180 days to send in a letter to USCIS?

The whole GC process is based on future employment which your employer undertook to give you on your getting GC. If your employer (who let you go) is still committed to that, you are fine, but that is unlikely. Best is just do nothing until 180 days pass, except finding another employer (no problem if you are unemployed in between) who is prepared to offer you same/similar job. Once 180+ days pass, you are ok provided your I-140 was already approved or is approvable. You may want to read bulletins on the subject USCIS has issued time to time.

Yes, you can wait for 180 days before telling USCIS about your new same/similar job. You don't need to change H1, just use EAD.

You can re-enter from Canada with same I-94 and status as long as trip < 30 days.

Yes, it resets out of status clock.

Yes, it resets out of status clock. --- Even if NO VISA stamping is done in CANADA???

I do not have anything,It was applied by my previous employer, and we do not have good terms.

What happens if I am in the 6th year of my H1, have the LC and I140, both approved from my current employer, and file for H1 extension while waiting on the retrogression...By all means, I will get the 3 year extension...

But, here's what is interesting I also have a concurrent H1 with another employer since the 5th year of my 6 year stay from the day I first entered on a H1. Assuming I have the LC and I140 approved on my 1st H1 and get the 3 year extension past the 6 years, can I get a similar 3 year extension on the concurrent H1?

Can anyone shed some light on it?

As soon as your wife used EAD, her H4 status was gone.

For you it would still be safe to continue working on H1.
Your advantages are:
1) Having dual status (H1B and AOS) is better than one.
2) You do not have to worry about EADs for yourself.
Thanks for your info, coopheal

Hello ,
We both husband and wife are on H1 B's and working and her six years will be completed 2 yrs from today.
My wife does not plan to start her GC with her employer and now I want to include her when filing I-485.

Do I have to fill out a seperate I-485 form for her ?
Do I have to fill out a seperate I-765 form for her ?
Do I have to fill out a seperate I-131 form for her?
Do I have to fill out a seperate G-325 form for her ?
Do I have to file the support affidavit(I-864) for her ?

Please do take time to answer .

Thanks

Hello,

There are many approved evaluation services that would provide you with certification of your MSc as compared to US programs like World Education Services - International Education Intelligence (http://www.wes.org)

Please be aware about rip-offs on the web who may not be the approved agents...good luck!

There is nothing you can do now. You cannot change the past. Realistically there is only a very small probability that it will become an issue at 485 approval stage.

Even otherwise, this was Employer's responsibility, not yours, to keep your LCA updated.

Unless you serve in Armed Forces

Arkbird,
You cant get into the armed forces without a GC

are you getting paid more or lesser than in LC?
are you getting paid as per your H1 labor?
are you working in the same position as your LC is for?

Hi
My H1 is due for extension this year end.
Valid period of H1 remaining is 1 1/2 year since extension

I understand that H1 extension has to go through the rigorous procedure nowadays.
It needs client letter stating that project will last for 1 year.
Getting such letter is not possible.

So having I140 approved makes thing easy for H1 extension? Or same process for h1 extension is followed

Please reply

Thanks
Abbey

Two weeks is normal. We filed paperbased renewal last month end and it got approved.

FYI
though it is difficult to identify the EAC/SRC no in soft copy of check.
If you can able to print the back side of check you can easily figure out the EAC/SRC no.
