The system will come backup when s/he returns

Hi friends,

I planning to change my employer after 180days and I want go for the fulltime by using my EAD because my I-485 will take next 3 or 4 years (PD May-2007). My present H1 is still Oct 2008 (labor and I-140 cleared).

1. What are the chances for rejecting my I-485 file?
Ans:Very less unless you violated any status or any law.
2. If my I-485 file rejected after my H1 expired (EAD using) ?
Ans:You are out of status, switch to in-status, like B1.
3. How to settle out this ? Do I need to go back india?
Ans:Yes, you need to go back and come on fresh H1.
Seniors please provide me suggestions.

Overall, enjoy the stay in EAD and don't worry much about what happens at I-485.

If appropiate can one of the administrators tell us how much of the funds collected thus far have been used (for whatever purposes). I am not asking where the money went :-), just basically how much is left in the Kitty now. If we are running low i am hoping we will see a spur of new donations..

Before anybody asks; yes i have contributed to IV. $600 as of now. I plan to send in another $100 or $200 by end of the month.

PS- Of course as i said above please disclose this info only if its deemed not sensitive.

Porting is so common now.

My Wife had the same issue when her H1B got approved. Her attorney (It was his mistake) had to amend the petition . But I remember we got a new receipt number and a new I-94 with the corrected DOB when the final approval came. The bad thing is the amendement application also enters the H1-B cycle of months for approval if not filed under premium processing. We had plans to travel back to India and do stamping at that time. I had to pay this attorney $1000 for PP even though it was his mistake.

Well, everyone should be proud of IV's great volunteers too who have always proved their consistent success from time to time - though big sucess yet to come! As these volunteers are just like one of us who are working full-time in their job and contribute to IV as and when they can - but I always felt that IV is managed by bunch of full-time professionals with so efficient and accurate manner! Their leading efforts to solve legal immigrant's problems are really commendable!! We are equally graced with great IV members who contributed $$ generously every time (and hope they will keep continue) and helped other way too (e.g. live update of senate sessions, news links, new immigration bills, etc...).

Thanks to everyone. Really proud of being IV member. United we stand!

Does anyone know if we need any special visa for working in Canada if you have a US GC?

One of my relative did work in Vancouver, Canada with his GC. He got his work permit at Canadian port of entry. Anyway this was long back, so please do your research, rules might have changed since then.

EAD Renewal -- Approved Nov 22nd, 08 valid till 2010.

Anyone here who is in the same situation?
I know my PD is in Aug 2006 and was casually checking the I-485 Receipt Notice I got during the July 2007 fiasco. Surprisingly, the "Priority Date" box on the notice is blank.
"Received Date" and "Notice Date" are correct though.

Anyone here in the same situation?

As per Spet 2009 visa bulletin, my PD will be current . I recently moved to LA due to Job change . If i do AC 21, do you think i will miss a oppurtunity of getting GC in spet since my PD is OCT 2004.

Please advise. Should i do AC21 now ? Or Should i do only on RFE?

Another question. I still have permanent address in chicago but moved to LA. Do i need to do AC11 form?

Nik

I would advise not to file anything at this point (in your situation). Hang tight and wait.

Good Luck.

Hi, My Lawyer says that texas SWA gave him a figure of $ 105,000 annual salary as a prevailing wage for 5 years experience java,j2ee guy.
.........

$105,000 salary for 5 years exp with J2EE/Java sounds rights to me. People with 2/3 year experience are making around 80-85k.

Hi,

Can the work experience without H1B be countable when you apply for I140 (EB2, BS + 5yrs ) ?
I kept my part time job about 3 yrs while I was working as a full timer at other companies. But the problem is I was getting paid but didn't file H1B as a part timer. I know that I should have filed for H1B but I just had a H1B as a full timer with my other company. If I can count my part time work experience ( 3yrs part time / 2 = 1.5 yrs as full time) along with my full time experience (3.7 yrs), It exceeds 5 yrs of related work experience that requires for EB2.

Thanks, dbn

To be working on part time while on H1-B for an employer that is not the one who sponsored your H1-B is not legal. Please refer to a heated discussion currently under way in the Away-Qxter discussion topic.

Guys,

My wife is a Canadian citizen, what is the process of getting a H4 for her? (I am on an H1-140 approved).

1)Do I file an app with USCIS?
2)Can she go apply at the US consulate in Canada?

What type of documents, forms are involved ?

The reason for this post is I was given conflicting info by my old lawyer.


Thanks

Your wife should take an appointment at the closest US Consulate. She and you should then look up the list of documents needed on the website of that US Consulate.

thats how I did it for my wife but she was from India.

hope this helps.

Cheers

It's really impossible to answer this without knowing the exact employment relationship that is planned and what the denial said in detail. Presumably your employer has a lawyer who can advise on whether an appeal might be successful. It is very likely that the denial was based on there not being the correct "employer-employee" relationship. CIS issued a new memo on this last month, and there are many threads in this forum on the topic. See here also: Law Office of Elaine Martin - immigration news: consultants (http://martinvisalaw.blogspot.com/search/label/consultants).

Good luck.

Hi Gurus,

I am filling form I-134 Affidivit of support for my wife and son to file their I-485 along with me.

In the Form in section 11,

That I intend /do not intend to make specific contributions to the support of the person(s) named in item 3.
(If you check "intend," indicate the exact nature and duration of the contributions. For example, if you intend to furnish
room and board, state for how long and, if money, state the amount in United States dollars and state whether it is to be
given in a lump sum, weekly or monthly, or for how long.)



if I check 'I intend', what explanation I have to write for this. Please advice...


Thanks in advance...

That could be things like
NOID - Notice of intend to Deny.
RFE - Request for evidence.

For I-140 USCIS does not update the online status properly. For both of my EB3 and EB2 I-140s still the case status says they received the application and processing!

Wait for the document that they sent.

"hi, do u think its likely i can get my i-94# from 12 years ago if i file i-102, i have old stamp and passport, but would they still have a record? thanku"

I am curious and wonder if can you share why you need a 12 year old I-94?

Hi Sandra,
Is the namespace for your FontCollection.cs file the same as that of your Window1.xaml / cs file? The reason is, if I try the following code, I am able to see FontCollection appear in the data pane:

public partial class Page : UserControl
{
public Page()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
}

class FontCollection : ObservableCollection<FontFamily>
{
public FontCollection()
{
/*
foreach (FontFamily f in Fonts.SystemFontFamilies)
{
//this.Add(f);
}*/
}
}

Cheers!
