I don't think there should be a problem with your start date. But, check with your attorney to make sure. Is your H1 and L1 from the same company? If not, you can say that you had to stay back to finish up pending projects before taking on the new job.

do you know if your friend was asked why he has joined late on H1 ? and what did he reply ?

Thanks for your reply, i appreciate your help.

With full due respect to the extremely hard IIT JEE and the brilliance of the students that make it to the IIT , the reason that only 3500 make it from over 150,000 is because of India's staggering population and staggering student numbers . The US has less than a third of US's population and hence Harvard accepts 10% . It is simple math.

I feel that just because a person could not crack a question in IIT JEE and gets rejected makes him any less smarter than the ones who make it given the small number of seats that used to be sometime back .

It is good that ye government has now opened a lot more IIT's and IIM's so that more people can get the privilege of going into these elite institutionalism , the ones who missed the Institution because they could not crack one question in the JEE .

Thanks for your replies. Immique I got your point and sorry for not being clear in my original post. I was confused myself after reading my original post and luckily you got what I meant.

Just carrying a copy of the receipt is sufficient. Normally the officer will only be interested in the passport and original AP document - that was my experience recently coming into the country.

....aaaaaaaaand to Temp for the idea ;)

I entered US with a tourist visa in California. Months later, I got married to a US citizen in Austin,Texas. Me and my husband were apprehensive at first to get an immigration lawyer to process my visa but we realized the process of obtaining a visa was not as straight forward as we thought.

We have since decided to hire a lawyer and have met with two attorneys so far. The process is frustrating because of the requirement to pay a consultation fee; we schedule an appointment, meet, and find out that the cost of hiring the lawyer is far greater than what we can afford.

My question is: does anyone know of a good lawyer who charges a reasonable flat fee? $1000 - $1500?

thank you

I need a immigration lawyer whom I can consult today, It is an emergency case and need his help immediately.

Can anyone please suggest me a lawyer in Dallas, TX who works today (Saturday) to get help.

Help highly appreciated.

You can contact the office of Sherin Thawer (Dallas Family Law Attorneys | Dallas Business Law Attorneys | The Law Offices of Sherin Thawer, P.C. (http://www.thawerlaw.com)). I never dealt with her personally and I dont know how good or bad she is but just giving her reference as I always hear her on the local desi radio and their offices are open on Saturdays.

My petition was denied my lawyer and i though it was an strong case, i am still waiting for reasons why, but i want to know what is my best choice now. I had a sales contract signed to buy an wonderful business. Could i try to travel to usa with my tourist visa buy the business and try a new process requesting change of status. Could a file a new petition inmediatly. I paid for an expedite process and i think that did not help.
What are the main concerns in this type of visa for usa inmigration: Is it financial concern or what? Where can i read more about it?
Please i will appreciate any advise at all, my family is desperate, we had everything ready to go, we were very very excited in moving to usa and have the business of our dreams.
Please help....

Demand Data Used in the Determination of Employment Preference Cut-Off Dates


http://www.travel.state.gov/pdf/EmploymentDemandUsedForCutOffDates.pdf


India EB2 Reduced from 13,300 to 10,425 i.e. 2875 allocated for only EB2 I.
China EB2 Reduced from 3,900 to 3,675 i.e 225 allocated for only EB2 C.

When someone says it is ok, it sure is a relief but just for clarification, what is the asnwer to be given by someone is the same situation at the POE when asked whether he is working for the GC filing company or not

a_yaja is 100% right. Is is upto port of entry(POE) officer to decide I-94 expiry date. Usually that will be 3 months to 6 months longer from the POE date.

Hello everyone,

I am in a very bad condition n would appreciate anyone who can advice me on same. I had been out of status for about 1 yr n 2 months following my denial of I 140 n expiration of H1b, n currently residing in US. Now i have a new approval for H1b from USCIS, a month back. I was instructed by my employer to go back to my native country n get approval from from the consulate n re enter US. My lawyer instructed that i will be barred at the consulate or at the airport due to the history of over stay in US upon re-entering . Is there any one who have heard experinces of this kind ever? plz share your knowledge... thanks

maybe this question has been asked before, I just couldn't find the thread.

These days with tons and tons of I-485 applications received every morning, how is USCIS gonna decide which one to process first?

If it's strictly on "first received, first processed" base, then it may well be that one guy with 3/07 PD date may have his application processed earlier (thus earlier AP and EAD) than one with 5/06 PD date. Simply because the 3/07 PD guy sent out the package much earlier than the 5/06 PD one.

Do I understand correctly?

Is this fair, though?

There is already a thread open for it. Please read it.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. But I guess I didnt frame my query properly. What I intended to ask was if the couple going to be married on a date x can fill up the forms online before wedding for an appointment on a date after their wedding?

Thanks again!

I am on F1 status in US, My parents are green holder..... I am also planinig to do PhD..... can i apply for green card now....?..... If yes..... on what purpose and with what requierments...?

If she is currently on F-1 and if she wants to maintain F-1 when she comes back she will need to go to the embassy and get her F-1 visa. If she enters U.S on old unexpired H4-Visa her F-1 visa becomes invalidated and she won't qualify for OPT/CPT etc.

Hi !!!

i was suffered fm TB long time back around 5 yrs back .... i am scared whether due to this reason my I-485 gonna be rejected. I already went trought the full 9 months medication at that time and been fully cures as my own mamaji was a TB specialist.

Can someone suggest me if they have gone through the same case. And if i need any documents to let them know that i am fully cured because my X-ray shows that spot/scars which says that i had TB and my mamaji told me that the scars will never go because of the medcation thing?? Please help

Hi,

May be a dumb question, but i would like to know how to proceed from here..

I have an approved 140 and applied for 485 got by EAD and done my FP, however recently i got married and i want to know how do i add my wife to my current 485 status ??

My employer lawyer says ; 485 dates should be current to add my wife ?? is that true ??

When 140 is denied, then 485 is also denied. Appeal going to AAO is common thing. Will sit there forever. Its takes approximately 12-20 months to get a reply.
Mine is already crossed 12 months now.

Hope this helps.
