Rajiv Khanna from immigration.com held two conference calls on going back to school with a pending green card application. Not sure if your particular situation is covered but you can listen to the conference call recordings on his website. I believe these were in the April/Mat time frame.

ARE YOU THE SAME ONE WHO MISSED SENDING YOUR WIFE'S PACKAGE!!!!!AND NOW YOU ARE GOING TO INDIA FOR YOUR MARRIAGE!!!


Dear All,
I got a labor substitution and filed for my I-140 and I-485 concurrently. Today was the last day to send the documents and some paperwork was missing for my wife! I missed sending the package!

Now how should i proceed?? My wife is on H1-B currently. Any ideas??

My priority date is 25 jan 05 - eb2.

Thanks,
KK.

But I dont have H1 status. Currently I am in L1, however I have H1 approved petition which was filled by a consulting company.

So u mean to say it is possible for my current employer to file H1B transfer even though I am not in h1 status.

Guys,

This is question to july 485 files, has anyone from Austin, tx received FP appointment.
I filed on jul 25 ( NSC) got transferred to TSC and got receipts on 9/27

Just wondering if FP did get lost...or am i in line..

Comments, suggestions ???

Thanks for setting this up Anurakt. I'll be calling-in.

Hi All,

Earlier USCIS has announced a fee hike from this month end. Ideally they should extend that fee hike till Aug 17th.

Anyone got any clues?

Thank You

Rajesh Alex

Yes. UR Lawyer is correct. U have to just pay one single fee for 485 filing and u can file yearly extensions for EAD and AP Free till ur 485 is approved.

Why do you need a signature from anyone in your company (or ex-company) on your 485. I-485 is your application and your employer has nothing to do with filing it.

Are you talking about I-140 by any chance?

You wrote-"(I am certified in both the subject)"

I am certified in both the subjects
Maybe you should attend some ESL classes yourself before teaching it.

Wait for the I-485 Receipt Notice(Usually takes 30 days).

I dont know that until i got RFE (and the attachment of RFE has details)

Gurus, business in my company is getting really slow and everyone is saying that some sort of lay-off is imminent. Although I am actively looking for new job, I find that the timing issue is hard to deal with.

My question is that: in the event of lay-off or firing and I don't have a new job lined up for me, do i have some "buffer" time to keep searching and landing for a job? Or do I immediately loose status?

I remember I read some guidances on this in this forum, and will be grateful if someone can point me to the right thread.

Thanks,

To all the physician members of this forum....

Conrad 30 program is up for extension on march 6.
According to shusterman.com although the extension is gonna take place, they plan to make physicians exempt from employment based category as long as they work in medically underserved areas....

If this bill includes the physician clause that will be a lifesaver for a lot of people and also help in visa retrogression albeit little bit.
Hope it passes....any thoughts anyone?

Yes Conrad 30 will be extended. Whenever there is lobby behind something it will get passed. There are lot of congressmen from rural America where doctors don't like to serve. So Conrad 30 helps to get doctors there.

Conrad 30 issues is same like the Amtrak issue. Every year Amtrak runs a loss and congress huff and puff abut it but eventually pass the Amtrak budget payment.
Because Amtrak threatens to stop the unprofitable routes (typical rural areas)
and a lot of Congressmen panic and pass that.


Whether "physicians exempt from employment based category " that is a different case because there is very little incentive to get that done. Once doctors get green card they can leave the under served areas.

Guys,
It is always better to carry AP, in case if no AP, then No need to worry if it is a small duration since the GC is approved.
Even one can enter on valid H1 VISA when his/her own GC is approved as long as the duration between the GC approval and the date of Entry in USA is not too big. couple of weeks of duration is also fine.
I have confirmed this back in 2004 with couple of attorneys including Rajiv Khanna (ImmigationPortal.com).

not yet

I know that an H1B may be extended beyond the 6 year limit as long as the there has been at least a Labor Cert pending for the past 365 days. So basically, as long as you have a LC pending, the H1B is increased in yearly increments until the GC is approved or denied.

However:
1) Once I-140 is approved, do they automatically extend the H1B (the next time it is due for an extension) by three years?

2) Once you're in that "extension zone" (i.e. past your 6 year limit because of a pending GC application) of your H1B can you still switch jobs? (obviously your new company would have to file a new Labor cert once again for you)?

Thanks.

This is Krishna doing Master's Tennessee State University as a full time student. My I-20 got expired on 12-17-08 but I noticed on 01-02-09. My International advisor told me that I am out of status and I need to apply for reinstatement to USCIS and I am not eligible to work. The process takes 60-120 days. My questions are

1) Do they approve this kind of applications?
2) I will get a case number after applying USCIS. Am I eligible to work (I am working as a Graduate Teaching Assistant) once I get the case number? Or Do I need to wait until the case resolved?


The mistake was done because I was planning to graduate in December and I filled the intend to graduate form too. But it got delayed as I didn't have enough data and I was busy in working on my thesis and research in November and December.

Please help me with this issue.

Thank you

hi, first, I'm not trolling. I have a genuine question and I'm looking for answers seriously. I got laid off in 2009 while on a h1b and then for one reason or another, stayed back for 8 months. My understanding was that I could have gotten a new job within 6 months and then switched over my h1b. I was foolish. My I-94 on the h1b approval letter however had an expiration date of October 2011. By the time 8 months had gone by, I decided it was time to give up hope and return to my country.

Since I've been here, my parents have started a campaign to get me a bride. Arranged marriages are part of my culture, and people marry based on how good a match it is according to one's birthchart. If I do find a USC who is willng too marry me, will it help me in any way immigration wise? Or will my 8 months out of status stay in USA chase me for the rest of my life?

Already I have answered your question. the onus is on you to prove that you are not marrying for GC or USC and your marriage is genuine. If the US consulate or USCIS becomes suspicious..they wont give your any chance...no matter what. There are cases where one married to the USC and have US born kids...still not able to get the GC and facing deportation and spending good amount time with attorney and immigration court.
