It looks nice :) I've added your stamp up!

My wife did her MBA and used her OPT before marriage. After a gap of OPT period she again went to school and got a MS degree. During her OPT, she did not work at all. Now she is unable to get second OPT for her recent MS degree.
Is there a way out to get second OPT? Can this new law (29 months OPT) if passed, be used to apply for second OPT.
What should be best approach? Please advice.
Thanks

A student can get an OPT once for every level of education. Since your wife already had an OPT at the "master's" level (it does not matter whether she could earn money during that period or not), she can only get another if she goes for a Ph.D. After completing the Ph.D., she will get one more OPT.

I do not know how the new law, if passed, will be "grandfathered", but I doubt if it can be used for your wife's case.

This info might be a little old. But I filed for PERM on Dec 1, 2010 and it got approved on Dec 19th, 2010. So, 18 days. Also, you can find the latest info for PERM approval processing time on www..com

Good Luck.

I had applied for my I-140 to seek an extension from Oct-09 to OCT-10..Instead I recieved an I-140 with expiry date of Oct-09 itself..what to do now..I know its a genuine mistake..but not sure how to get that addressed..:confused:

why do you need to extend the I-140?

Lets send our love to the WH!

First of all, let me begin by congratulating the IV core team and other members on staging a dignified protest to the entire July VB fiasco!

I have a question regarding the medical exam for the AOS. The civil surgeon I went to did not do a TB skin test and instead took an x-ray to verify no signs of TB. Has anyone else had the same experience, i.e. no skin test, x-ray only?

The other strange thing he told me was that some of his patients send the x-ray as part of the 485 application. Has any1 else heard of anything like this?

Last I checked, the USCIS did not employ medical personnel, but then what do I know?

Any input from fellow IV members is greatly appreciated.
Thanks and good luck to all.

it is simple...have patience and wait for the card..OR the letter !

This is not related to IV agenda and legislative updates section.

no ...now or never...do or die...think now about 18th Sept only...you will get all the answers of your questions sooner...I would request the community not to post any of the personal GC related question at this time..they are advised to browse first among the threads..and post unless not very urgent like some one will immediately if he not get the answer...so please guys ..just a humble request...ONLY ONE OBJECT LIKE "EKLAVYA" ..."CHALO DC"

thanks

Hey heres a new stamp since the other one was a bit outta the guidelines i think... hope you enjoy it.

For those IV members who are not aware of this hearing:

There is a very important hearing scheduled on 4/30/08. Please check the status on this hearing at the following link. Let's keep our fingers crossed that this has an impact on the overall grand scheme

Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship, Refugees, Border Security, and International Law
Hearing on Wasted Visas, Growing Backlogs

Is there audio/video webcast?

IV seems to have a lot of folks here on a h1b with a non profit organization. My wife is currently doing her residency in a non profit organization on a h1b so basically she is not subject to the cap.
After she finishes, and she looks for jobs, is it possible to get a h1b transfer in a profit organization without being subject to cap? Or H1b transfer is possible only with an non profit organization.

Any inputs will be well appreciated.

My fianc� is on a tourist visa and I am on a H1B visa, we are planning to get married while she is on a tourist visa? Is that okay to do so, any restrictions?
Second question After marriage can I convert her visa to H4 dependant visa while she is here, so that she can stay with me without going back? Does she have to go out of the country for this conversion to happen?
Also if she wishes to go out of the US on the tourist visa after we get married can she still apply for a dependant visa H4 to come here ? Will that cause any issues for her?

Which one is better to do, marry and apply for her conversion right away over here or should she go back and apply from outside the country?

Thanks Much!

yeah, on both pics i was just randomly doing things and hoping it would be cool when i was done...but anyway, thanks for input i'll keep at it.

I am also facing a similar situation. My lawyer advised me not to worry about this.

Also, I think there is another thread talking about the same issue.

Does the "Receipt Rule" apply if an approved EAD is lost in email and a replacement EAD is applied for. The documentation mentions that it is valid to accept the EAD receipt for upto 90 days after joining date or for 90 days after reverification(which I presume happens after the current EAD expires)
?

Very nice photo, great composition. Depressing view though.

I-140 belongs to the employer only, so it is up-to them to disclose the details. Unless you change employer without using AC21 clause, I-140 details won't be necessary.

thanks for the reply.

Hi All,
My LC was approved recently(PD June 2004). The location/office for which my LC was initially filed was closed recently.
My company(which has offices all over states) has another locations/Offices in the same metropolitan area.The company attorney is saying that they can use my approved LC to file my I-140(and I-485 concurrently) for another location in the same area as long as it is within commuting distance of the original location.
Was wondering if anyone knows about this?

Thanks
