Thanks very much dealsboy, really appreciate it.

Hi:

I have H1b renewed on the basis of pending AOS application (EB3 june04) till 2012 and also ead/ap based on my spouse's AOS application. I am going to India on a vacation soon for a month or two. Recently I have heard many horror stories that even stamped H1B is getting rejected in POE. My question is that if something like that happen to me at the POE can I invoke my unused EAD/AP and request entry based on that? The reason I don't want to simply go back is because I have a house here in USA and a mortgage that I continue to be paying to keep the house.

Thanks

Can you please share which counslate did you go for your first H1-B stamping ? & what questions were asked.

I would really appreciate it.

Thanks

Dear friends,

Please be careful of corrupt attorneys and employers selling same labor to multiple candidates and making money by filing concurrent cases. I am happy that the substitution labor is dead which kills corruption by employers and attorneys. This is one of my bitter experiences with substitute labor.

sit back and relax for 5 years and don't get involved in any crime ;-)
I recently got my gc. Is there anything I need to do to initiate my Citizenship process ?

Thanks,

Hi Everyone,

I will be laid off from an american company by the end of Feb 2009. I spoke to my previous desi employee as my H1b with his company is still valid and he din't revoked it until now

But he agrees to let me join his company but at the same time he worried about few things



Q1) I was with him for 6 months of 2008 and moved to an American Company so the total pay in the W2 for year 2008 is less than LCA amount.
Would that be a problem as i din't work with him for an entire year in which case it is bound to be less than LCA amount..
Mind you i'm looking at the Yearly wage if you look at month wise it is much higher than mentioned in LCA.

Would that be of any problem to both me and employeer.

Q2) He also said that when somebody re hires any one , the employeer is liable to pay back wages for the period of time he was out.

It sounds illogical atleast to me because he didn't terminate me from the job it was me who quit the job and transferred my H1b on a good note , but there is no official document saying i quit the job or he terminated me ....


I would appreciate if some could throw some light on this ....

My future is relied on these issues

Thanks
David

god,,,this betrayel is killing me,,,,,can't able to digest this news,,,,


my dates are NOT current also ...


any advise?...

I am not an attorney but questions related to your employer etc should not be asked if you enter on AP. They are more focused on those questions when one enters using a work visa of some sorts. I suggest you enter asap using your AP given that it expires in a month get your green card in hand and then you are free man. You can even go back work out of the country for a limited time until you find a project here. By the way congratulations.

Any members in Iowa, please post here.

as soon as you get it.

Do you have the rejection letter along with the returned application or is that with the lawyer?

IMHO- it will better to resend the application that got rejected- rather than sending a fresh application
I was in a similar situation - when my wifes application was lost
my lawyer suggested- an i agreed- that we wait for her app to show up rather than reconstructing a new one

Also the rejection letter will have complete instructions on how to refile
if for some reason you are not getting cooperation from your lawyer- get a new lawyer- If I were you- I wouldn't try to re-file with a lawyer...

I think you can apply for reinstatement from within U.S. Check with the International Students Office at your school.

Thanks Gc2 for useful information. I will the family class.

Do I need to cancel their I-485 after they go to India or I will just leave as it is - let it cancel / reinject by itself.

Why is beautiful_mind in all reds?

Are you pinching beautiful_mind reminding him about the reds. I think he isn't concerned but you appear to be more concerned for his reds.

coolio!!

I live/work in california - and on the I-485 form it says the address is :
USCIS Nebraska Service Center
P.O. Box 87485
Lincoln, NE 68501-7485

Can someone please advise? Apologies if this has been covered already.

Employment-based adjustment of status.

File all employment-based AOS applications at the following address:

USCIS Nebraska Service Center
P.O. Box 87485
Lincoln, NE 68501-7485

This includes an EB Form I-485 filed concurrently with a Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker, and an EB Form I-485 filed based on a pending or an approved Form I-140.

Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) isn�t wasting any time with his immigration agenda, dropping a bill on the first day of Congress that goes after birthright citizenship.

King�s measure would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act, ending automatic citizenship for anyone born in the country. Instead, the measure requires that only the children of citizens, legal immigrants permanently living in the country or immigrants in the military, be granted citizenship.

Republicans grabbed headlines last summer after Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) criticized the longstanding law, saying it encourages pregnant women to come to the country to have children so they can eventually become citizens themselves.

Though others have called for changing the 14th Amendment, King said that ending birthright citizenship through statute makes sense because it�s easier to do.

�We need to address anchor babies,� he told POLITICO Wednesday. �This isn�t what our founding fathers intended.�

Immigration legislation isn�t high on the list of priorities for House GOP leaders.

At least five other members � Reps. Phil Gingrey (R-Ga.), Gary Miller (R-Calif.), Rob Woodall (R-Ga.), Brian Bilbray (R-Calif.) and Dana Rohrabacher (R-Calif.) � are co-sponsoring King�s measure.

http://www.botzilla.com/photo/strobeVolts.html seems to have a list of various studio strobes and their voltages.

Note that ISO 10330 specifies 24V, so ideally the camera ought to handle that much.

http://photonotes.org/articles/eos-flash/index2.html#trigger have additional information. (including a link to Wein Safe-Sync HS which you can use in case you want to make absolutely sure your camera is safe)

As for E-TTL, with studio strobes you'll end up using a flashmeter. E-TTL does not factor into the equation.

Got a 221g (pink) from Chennai consulate because I have a Phd in biology. After almost 4 weeks the status on the website was updated to 'submit passport'. I have a couple of questions. If anyone who has gone through a similar situation, can answer, I would very much appreciate it..

1. I have been asked to submit the passport to VFS. How long did it take for passport to be returned with visa.

2. I have already gone through the security clearance. Do I need to go through PIMS clearance again?

Please...appreciate responses from those who have gone through this themselves..

Thanks. Man..this has been an ordeal....

The bulk of your ordeal is done...that is waiting for the Security clearance...
Security clearance is different from PIMS from what I understand... two different processes...with some luck you might already be cleared for PIMS...I guess you will have to submit your passport and see. Cheers...
