Should out of status H1Bs be locked up or deported... - Dice Discussions (http://community.dice.com/t5/Tech-Market-Conditions/Should-out-of-status-H1Bs-be-locked-up-or-deported/td-p/196283)

H1B Immigrants are fighting with each other on websites and here antis are discussing this

First of all, is your profile legitimate? It shows your PD as Dec'07 / EB3/India and you are in 485 processing??????

anyway, as long as some fools doesn't admit the facts and realize the changing world, all those forums / blogs / hatred etc; will be just a waste of their time. ofcourse they have been wasting watching stupid games in TVs / Stadiums instead could use 'that' time to gain some new skills / learn new technologies that are required to survive in the job market.

Lately, US Consular Officers in Canada have been reluctant to issue H-1B visas when the applicant does not have a US or Canadian University Degree AND has never had an H-1B visa issued at his/her home Consulate. The following is an excerpt from Visa Requirements • U.S. Consular Services in Canada (http://www.consular.canada.usembassy.gov/usa_visa.asp#ability:)

"Evidence of qualifications must be original or certified copy. Consular officers in Canada may refuse to issue a visa to H-1B applicants if their education and /or work experience is solely or predominantly from a country other than the U.S. or Canada."

As you probably know, if you are refused a visa in Canada, you cannot return to the US until you travel to your home country and obtain your H-1B visa there.

Hi,

I am quite frustrated with my present situation. Here's my sad story:

I came to US on L1B Visa through company A. In 2010 Company B filed for my H1B. They asked me to pay half of the H1B filing money ($1500) which will be returned later. They sent me a document mentioning that as a training cost which I signed and paid them online $1500. I shouldn't have done this. My mistake. I was never given any training and money was not returned. :(

Company B also verbally committed to me that they'll be paying me roughly 80% of the client project contract amount which they will be getting from the client. They asked me to sigh the contract document with them which mentioned my salary way to less than expected. When I asked why the salary is mentioned too less here, they mentioned that don't worry about it. It is done to keep the agreement same as LCA filled. And I'll be getting what I was promised. the contract document also mentioned that if i leave the company within 1 year, I'll be paying liquidity damages to the company. This was big trap which I didn't understand that time and signed the document. This was my 2nd biggest mistake. :(

Now for last 5 months they are paying me at very lower rate (what was in the contract which is roughly 50% of client project contract amount). I called them on phone and they mentioned that they'll eventually release my salaries but they never released. I sent many emails that this is not what I should be getting as per the commitment given but they never replied to my emails. I mentioned in the emails cleary that what I should be getting. So now they haven't paid me almost $8,000 in last 5 months.

I am planning to quit the company B and join company C.

Here are my questions:

1) Is there any way I can complain legally about Company B and get my money? I have sent many emails that mentions what I should be getting. Does emails can be used in this case?

2) If I leave the company B and join company C. Can they drag me to the court to pay for liquidity damages since I left them within 1 year?

I moved to H1B thinking that I would have a better life but it has become way more worse. Please advise me what are the best suggestions for me in this situation. Thanks a lot. :)

Please help me !!

Regards.
Hrithik.

Ok Guys enough "PREDECTIONS" now go to bed.

Only the coming days will tell us what is going on and what will happen. Everything else is just hear-say.

Go to sleep and remember that we DO have day jobs.

Thanks eb3_nepa, I agree.

Isnt that stupid.. I'm baffled at their brilliance? why cant they issue a reciept notice there it self.. :eek:

They will be able to provide you an emergency AP. This has happened in the past. If you can prove the emergency, you can get AP in a few hours.

ok thanks

Just trying to do all I can... we're all in it together. :)

Thanks for the pictures and your blog.

This is one more reason why Congress should realize to increase the number of green cards.

Yes you can transfer based on the receipt number. There is not restriction on how many H1B petition can be filed on your behalf by different employers simultaneously. As long as you have no GAP in your paystubs during this transition you should be OK. I have gone through this experience in the past without any issue.

My wife and I returned one time from India to US exactly 2 days before visa expiry. we had new visa approval notice but didnt have new visa stamping in passport.

This is not reqd but if you want, you can send her your scanned copy of H1/H4 receipt notice, just incase to show that you both filed for extension if anyone ask for it. In general, send her scanned (or fax) your current employment letter to show that you are currently working here in US.

good luck:)

thanks, tabeltpc.

I think even the local govenment is under the H1b quota. Therefore, I had to apply for the H1B in the next year.
The DOL online prevailing wage only shows that the salary for that position is for the county. The offer of the town govenment is $5000 lower than the prevailing wage of the county. And they can not increase the salary because the town is not near the rich area in the county. They told me the salary they offer is the highest for this position.


Thanks



Get the DOL report before u take up the job. DOL will give the estimation for salary....!!!Use it and ask u r company attorney to file for the H1b now its self mentioning the start date as future date (when u r opt expires). Since u work for local government ...governments jobs don't come under H1b quota...so u can apply NOW.
if the DOL report comes out favorable...start the job and can look out for a better opportunity. Trust me u will find one when u have a back up job.
Good luck

Please christ sake, please stop posting the things you HEAR. as per the visa bulletin , things are still current. Check the bulettin before posting, and save a couple of people who would die of strokes.
peace.

Hi,

I got my I-140 approved last week at Texas Service Center and the status was Approval notice sent. Today, I got an email from CRIS mentioning this case has been transferred to Nebraska Service Center for processing where my I-485 is pending.
Can anybody throw some light on this?

Thanks,

March I applied H4 for my wife. It's still pending. She is travelling to India next month and will be back only Feb. Currently she is having valid AP till next yr and we are planning to use AP this time. If you are applying H4 not along with H1 then it'll take longer time, but you can get H4 stamping in India with your husband�s valid H1 document. You don't need to have H4 document for your stamping. One of my friend�s wife similar to your situation got stamping in India without H4 document.

Hello everybody ! I am 22 years old. My parents had applied for GC under the employment based category. I, unfortunately, aged out before my parents applied I-140 because of the stupid backlogs. So I aged out even before an I-140 was filed. I was reading the Child protection act info and could not understand if I will be "automatically classified to the appropriate category" for GC which is Family 2B and retain my "original PD." Does this apply to me as I had not even filed I-140 when I aged out ? My parent's PD is Oct 2000 so does this mean I am under Family 2B with Oct 2000 PD ?? Please help me out. I am sure many of you with sons/daughters that are in a similar situation. Thanks

My son also aged out before my I140 was filed. I was told that he would not be able to keep the same priority date and it would be fixed by the date when I could apply for his family based application. So, if I were to file an I130 next week his priority date would be March 2008.

In order for the priority date to be fixed at the point when labor certification was applied for the I140 would have to be submitted before his 21st birthday and be approved within a time period that could be deducted from his age at time of approval, making him under 21 at that time.

The child status protection act is pretty useless to children in your position or my son's since the big delay occurred in the labor cert stage.

If however, you can find a different interpretation of this situation feel free to send me a personal message and I will follow through as well.

There are a number of members in IV whose children aged out so while this is not a prevalent subject matter it is one that affects more people than you might realize.
