Hello Greensignal,

NSC is processing EB-3 based I-140 cases as of 6th April 2007, as per latest processing time release by USCIS. When did you file your I-140 in NSC?

Regards

Hi

My H1 is valid until 2010 Feb.
I am also having EAD till 2011 June.
I have been with my employer all along.... and prefer to stay with same employer till GC.

I DONT want to apply for my H1 extension since they are asking lot of questions like Contract details etc with RFE's.

My Q is - Can i use EAD with my EXISTING employer or EAD should be used for only NEW employer based on AC21?

If i use EAD with my current employer, should i have to inform uscis(any process involved)?

Please suggest...

Thanks for any suggestions

I must admit I'm not very photoshop savy. .

Jason, here's an old photoshop tutorial (http://www.dphoto.us/forum/showthread.php?t=2245) that will either confuse you or help you similar effects to the processed photos above. It will either confuse you more, or make it easier! Once you understand some of the principals, it won't take you hours at all. Good Luck! :D

In response to the major delays with Labor Condition Applications (LCA's), the USCIS announced a temporary policy and procedural change regarding H1B petition filings. Effective November 5, 2009, H1B cases can be filed prior to the certification of the required Labor Condition Application (LCA). This change was necessitated by delays in LCA processing through the Department of Labor (DOL).

Here is how the new process will work. USCIS will begin to accept H-1B (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) petitions filed with uncertified LCAs for a 120-day period, commencing November 5, 2009 and through March 4, 2010. However, USCIS will only accept such H-1B petitions if they are filed at least 7 calendar days after the LCAs were filed with DOL and include evidence of these filings. The only acceptable evidence of filing is a copy of DOL�s email giving notice of receipt of the LCA.

Petitioners who seek to take advantage of this temporary flexibility in the normal filing procedures for H-1B petitions must wait until they receive a request for evidence (RFE) before they submit the DOL-certified LCA to USCIS in support of the H-1B petition. USCIS will give petitioners a period of 30 calendar days within which they must send in a DOL certified LCA in response to the RFE. We welcome this new procedure and hope that it will expedite current H1B processing.

Hi,
I have a pending I-485.
My case was file in jan 02. I have approved labour and I-140. I filed my I-485 in Jun 2005 and have an EAD and parole. How do I find when can I file my spouse's case.
Thanks

You PD has to be current to file I-485 for you spouse/dependent. Since you filed for I-485 in Jun '05, and based on ur PD, i guess ur case must be EB2. If EB2, then you are in a better position alteast compared to many folks here.. The PD for Mar '06 per DOS, Visa Bulletin, for EB2 is 01JAN02, Since your case has a PD of Jan 02, (Date not provided by you),
http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_2805.html
Watch for April VISA BULLETIN, The DOS publishes this ususally sometime in first 2 weeks of each month for the following month. If the Date moves forward you should be able to file sometime in April, assuming the Date moves forward. Also you can use this time to prepare the application.

VISA BULLETIN FOR MARCH 2007 is out http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_3143.html. No change in EB2.

Thank you for your help. He does have a degree and is currently working in France. My question though is more what companies if any are sponsoring H1B Visas in the business management field. Thank you again!!

I have applied for my H1 extension in July 2010 and still waiting for the approval. My in-laws are visiting the US in dec and i am sponsoring their visit. Should my H1B be approved before they appear for the Visa interview or should the H1 receipt notice be enough? Please let me know.
rk78:

There is no such rule that you should have an approved H1B in hand. However you never know the kind of immigration officer your in-laws/parents see at the embassy. If it is not too urgent wait till your H1B is approved. If it is urgent just write a letter stating the facts accompanied by a copy of your old H1b, new H1B receipt notice and a letter of continued employment from your employer. Yes include other documents like paystubs, past tax returns and etc.

Best Wishes!!

Thanks, Mattresscoil!!

Hi,
My wife's 485 is rejected with the following reason "The application/petition was filed on the outdated version of this form". The rejection notice has a receive date of July 1st 2010 and a LIN number. Now the problem-

My 485 was approved on July 8th, 2010 and I received a "Welcome to USA" notice on July 12th. My H1 has expired on July 14th, 2010 along with wife's H4 and our I-94's. We applied for both the H extensions in may. Now if we resubmit the 485 with the new application will the USCIS honor the July 1st receive date?


My main concern is on her status, any input will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi
I filed my I-485 in July last year. My PD is EB2-Feb 2007. I could not file for my wife since she is pursuing her medical residency on a J1 visa with the 2 year HRR requirement.
My queries are as follows:
1. For the interfiling to happen does she need to be done with her J1 waiver or even when she is pursuing it as that is a H1B visa?
2. If I get my green card before she is done with her waiver then can I still file for her later or will her case then be treated as a family based petition?
I will really appreciate if somebody can provide some insight regarding the same.
regards
Saket Kapur

Hi Saket
you can file for her I-485 only after she is done with 3 yr J-1 waiver requirement. As far as your second question I don't know the answer.
Good luck.

Hello,

If PD is current, are there disadvantages of being outside US (on AP) ?

Thank You.

What is the minimum requirement for EB2? From what I read, it's BS+5yrs, or MS+1yr.

1. Is there a rule that the experience should have been gained outside of the US?

2. Is there a rule that the number of years experience should be from an employer other than the petitioning employer?

Thanks!
