Based on your approved I-140 if you are eligible to file 485 or get EAD then he can also get EAD.

But using only approved I-140 , then only the beneficiary can get extended.

Both NIW and Eb-1a are DIY, so I do not have a lawyer to ask. It would be appreciated if you can share the response from your lawyer.

I am also thinking about interfiling, but it is said that both 140 have to be approved for interfiling of 485. How long does it take for interfiling? someone said it takes a long time. not sure if it is right.

I am in similar boat. What does your lawyer say? I am waiting for my lawyer response. How about option on interfiling NIW 140 with the pending I-485. That is do not file new I-485 but change underlined I-140 in the old one. Ask your lawyer about that and let us also know whats his/her response.

Looks like a page from a flower book or catalog. Very nice, I think.

I did apply at NSC and got receipt notices from Texas.. It's simple..

Hi All,

Joined California based consulting company in mid 2006, got project in Maryland(MD). Worked in Maryland but CA company ran payroll on CA address. I have LCA for Maryland. End of year,2006 filed tax filing with CA state.

Project went till February,2008 they are running my pay stubs,W2 with CA address. I filed CA tax returns for year 2007 but stayed in Maryland.

Now my questions is I�m present in Maryland(LCA) but pay stubs,W2 are showing CA address. In demographic information form(g-325) which I address I need to use. Should I go with physical address(Maryland) or W2 address(CA).

I have no idea how to go about this, can you please advice how to present my case.

Thanks,
Sampath.

In G325, you should specify the address where you lived. On the other hand, though your W2 says CA address, you should have filed taxes with Maryland and filed taxes with CA as non-resident.

I don't know anyone in Chicago. But I think it does not matter. You can hire an attorney from other city/state as long as he/she is competent. We live close to chicago, but our immigration attorney is in Michigan.

We had a great experience with this attorney. She is thorough, clear, always accessible and prompt. And she does not charge a fortune either like others. She does not even charge extra for phone calls, emails, etc.

The office is Law Offices of Ingrid Brey P.C. in Grosse Point Park, MI. Just google it and call the office. Have them email their services/charges, etc.

I entered US on H1 and the officer stamped the I-94 expiry date to the expiry date of the passport. I applied for a new passport but forgot about the I-94 expiry date. Does it mean that my H1B is expired and not valid? Can I re-enter US on the same H1B visa. Or, my H1B is no longer valid and I have to use AP?

Please let me know.

When did your I94 expired?

Even though it expired and if you are having a EAD you are legal.

Your H1B visa is still valid. If you want you can reenter using the same H1B Visa.

All you need is to extend your stay. I think you can do it by contacting CBP office in your area.

You could travel out and enter into US using your old visa stamp assuming that you enter before your old visa stamp expires. However show the new approved I-797 H1B petition at port of entry and they MOSTLY will give you a new I-94 valid till the expiration of new I-797 approval.

That's wonderful news and thank you for that. Is there a benefit of getting a 1-94 upto the extended date, does 1-94 determine the visa validity not the actual visa stamp? Since I-94 is taken when exiting US the next entry requires visa stamp anyway?

Thanks again.

Please let me know.

You are correct, you have been accumulation illegal stay since your i-94 expiration, when did it actually expire? if it is more than 180 days you better see a good immi attorney!

If you have i-485 pending, then your status is AOS pending since i-94 expiration and is legal.

we would appreciate if you could update your profile before posting your response.

H1-B Extension after 6 years.

Is it mandatory that I have to work at the employer who is processing my GC to get the extension on H1-B beyond 6 years?

I have changed my employment after I-140 approved. But the previous employer agreed to continue the GC process. I could not file 485 due to PD is not current.

The 6 yrs limit on H1 is about to be over.
Is it possible to extend H1-B after 6 yrs at the new employer, based on the I-140 approved by previous employer as green card is process? Or is it mandatory that I have to work at the employer who is processing my GC to get the extension on H1-B beyond 6 years?

Thanks in advance
Venkat

In order to extend H1B beyond six years, you do not require to be with the GC sponsoring employer. One must have filed a labor 365 days before 6th year end date. 1 or 3 years extension is based on what stage of GC processing you are in. Hope this helps!

If L1 quits the job (for what ever reason) and any change in status such as L1 to Fi etc; will automatically invalidates the L2. Meaning L2 status NO LONGER valid

Hello Guys,
We all have only 1 thing going on in our mind where every we go & what ever we do is about GC when it will arive. You see this offer & that offer. What you do ? nothing. Because you dont have EAD or GC

So now is the time we all can get together start our effort. No one knows about the result. Atleast some day some one will hear our voice.

This is my first visit to this web site. I have contributed $100 dollars.

Please give help to achive this target. wether it is $1,5,10,20,100,200 etc.

Best of luck & May god bless everyone !!

Hey vts, the box looks ok, but what's going on with that white smokey thing?

I am applying for a green card and my lawyer sent me a case number starting with an A and in the format : A-#####-##### for my PERM.
I tried http://pds.pbls.doleta.gov/ but it does not accept case numbers starting with "A".
Can you please tell me where I can go to look at the status of this application?

The attorneys have a login when they file the PERM electronically and only they can track or the employer can track it. As far as i know it is not open to public.

Sorry I am not going to be help, but I would be interested in knowing when you find, why that was so.. I am one of the unlucky few whu missed the July 2007 filing bonanza by 1 day, based on when my labor was filed.. so if there is an alternate way to assign PD.. I can still continue crying....:confused:

Send your petition to USCIS Ombudsman. This is a classic case of USCIS incompetence. They have all the documents and yet they pester you to provide the details.

When I went to my county health dept to get vaccination shots (for medical exam), they asked me to see the civil surgeon first, "else you will pay lot more for shots that you do not need". I gave them the standard list (MMR, Polio, DTaP, Influenza type B, Hepatitis B), and there are a few more in (page 3 of) I-693 form (http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-693.pdf). Someone on this thread (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=5553) (second-last post) says you may need a shorter list based on your age group. Did anyone recently take these shots, and can she/he give the correct list here?
Thanks.

I only took TDaP (Adacel) shot. For MMR, Hepatitis B and Chicken Pox I had a blood test which showed that I am immune. You do not need polio shot.

If possible please suggest bests ways I can present my application to USCIS. I would really appreciate your response. Thanks.

I am not a perm candidate and I dont know what is causing the failure of First-in-first-out procedure.

We are going to demand TRANSPARENCY in addition to efficiency for BECs. Its a part of Immigration voice's agenda.

The way things are going, even if you get your labor approved, there will be a new backlog. That will be at 485 stage.

And then 2 years down the road, there will be a backlog elimination center for the I-485 as visa numbers would be available but the self-appreciating and self-congratulating govt agencies would continue doing the great job they are doing today. At least people with lesser patience will be able to go for consular processing.

i believe this would be a problem. I had a similar mistake(address) on my wife's AP, but the lawyer responded saying name could be an issue but not the address..
