what is the reason for the denial? Only after knowing that you can determine whether you could apeal or not. Let us know what the denial reason is.

Hi guys
thanks for the info. Since he got I 485 approved the GC status already began for him or only on receipt of GC his Green card status begins.
Which is correct? Any help.
thanks

My H1B LC says that I got hired as software engr. But later, they promoted me to Sr Software Eng ...


Now my labor cert says Software Engr.

I think its not a problem but just want to make sure. My lawyer didnt even care.

hi,

If my H1B is revoked, how much grace period will i have ? After my H1B is revoked, how many days can i stay in this country ? And again if i find a new employer to transfer H1B, how should i proceed.Please advise.

Thanks in advance...

yes, that is correct, i meant can i got for H-1 stamping while 485 is pending
and ead/ap is approved.
Again in case the H-1 stamping is denied for any reason , can i come back on AP

I am a little concerned of H1 stamping being a problem because my case is complicated ,for the years June 2005- June 2006 i dont have a H1 approval from USCIS for the 6th year, This was because the case was stuck in a security check .
We applied a case again in April 2006 , which was approved on August 2006 ( after the security check has been completed ).

I'm also seriously planning to file on my own. Well, there is no law that stops us, but certainly needs some tips from experienced people.
Infact as per the checklist, i have all the documents except a letter from employer. That i can get anytime. my big question is are there any other documents that need to be put together (which are not in checklist)

Any help seniors????

Gurus...

Can I file 485 on my own. My 140 is approved.

If so, what is the procedure.

Thanks

It's ok for outside people to wait longer rather than get tourist visa quickly for indefinite time to explore possibilities which are dangerous for the country .....

A friend of mine just told me that USCIS has issued "guidance" a couple of weeks ago that allows using the EAD and at the same time "preserving" the alien's H1B status.

I can't find the document, but he swears that he read it..

Not true. There was a request from AILA to USCIS regarding this issue for maintaining H-1 with full time employer and to work on EAD for part time work. USCIS does not not permit that at this time.

I submitted an AR-11 (address change) form on 3/13/2008. The LUD changed the next day to 3/14/2008.

However, the LUD changed again yesterday to 3/17/2008. Has anyone had experience with AR-11 and LUD updates. If so, please share if multiple LUD updates are the norm for AR-11 changes....


Thanks.

I had soft LUD's on all my receipts after sending AR11, but it took three days after I did (did AR11 for all the receipts online)

Good luck to you.

I got my FP done a couple of weeks ago at the Dallas ASC on the scheduled date. Have noticed from other threads that people have gone to other ASC at an unscheduled date and were able to get it done. I think you can go as well and explain your situation if they object. If they are not too busy that day they might let you in; guess the hours are from 8AM to 3PM. You can try to be the first one in the morning. It doesn't take more than 15 minutes for the entire process. Good Luck!!

i think it is based on the LC requirements. For EB2, u need " A petition for a foreign professional holding an advanced degree may be filed when the job requires an advanced degree (beyond the baccalaureate) and the alien possesses such a degree or the equivalent. The petition must include documentation, such as an official academic record showing that the alien has a U.S. advanced degree or a foreign equivalent degree, or an official academic record showing that the alien has a U.S. baccalaureate degree or a foreign equivalent degree and letters from current or former employers showing that the alien has at least 5 years of progressive post-baccalaureate experience in the specialty."


Let me know if i am wrong

Hi everyone,

Does anyone have experience with expedited H1-B filing? The one that you are supposed to receive the answer in 15 days. I am just wondering if it really works and if it is possible to hurt your petition by filing expedited?

Thanks a lot in advance.

no replies? cant believe i am the only one in this situation :)

Hello Everyone! Please advise me on the following agreement.

I am looking to use AC21, but concerned with the following agreement. Is this enforceable? Its been couple of years since I signed this and I know it's still a long wait before my I485 is approved.

My wife�s I 485 (PD Jan 2007, EB2, India & concurrent filer July 2007) application has a new soft LUD on 04/17/09. Not aware of any RFE yet.


Contributed $ 225. Will contribute more.

Do not submit your I-94 at the canadian border. Just say you intend to come back within 30 days. If you go by road no one will ask you for it either. On the way back show all you documents.

One important thing. Take all your previous H1b's with you. Take you entire petition papers with you as well. Take your original H1B with the I-94 attached. If your spouse is going with it take all her / his previous papes as well , including the H4 and previous H1 if any. My wife was asked for her previous H1b as well since her last stamp on passport was H4. You should be fine . I have done it and found the procedure very smooth. By road try to take the busy route like the one going through Niagara as they are very well aware of the rule.

Can anyone suggest a good Immigration attorney in Bay area.
This is for one time personal consultation ( not phone consultation). Any idea about the charges for such a consultation.

Thanks you
