>> Can i go to mexico and get the visa stamped during my stay there..is it risky???


inputs Pleaseeeee..

Here's a sticky question - and appreciate "expert" advise on the matter:

My situation:
1. I currently work on a H1B for Company A
2. My future greencard has been filed by Company B - recd. EAD, applied 485

My question:
1. Can I work on my EAD either for company A or any other company?
2. What happens if I dont join Company B ever?

Appreciate your responses!!

Cheers!

I'm in the same boat.

Applied for 485/Ap/EAD on July 18th. Pending I140 was approved on Sep 14th. Checked online status the same day and LUD was 9/14.

After reading your post today, I checked the online status again and the LUD is 9/17.

My Permanent residency is being processed thru Employer A (I-140 not done yet).
Employer A also holds my H1B. This is my only H1B, and it extends based on approved labor as I am on my 7th year if H1B.

If A files for Chapter 11, will my H1B and permanent residency get cancelled/revoked?

If my current H1B is valid till Nov 2010, and employer A files for chapter 11 in Dec 2010, will I be able to stay/work in US at least till Nov 2010?

What will be my options if H1B / GC gets cancelled? Can I transfer this H1B to a different employer? Or, can a different employer has to file for a new H1B? :confused:

Your answer/advices are highly appreciated.

Does any one know on an average how much time it will take to complete background check?

My PD is current this month and there is background check pending on my case..

does anyone have any clue on this??

Thanks "glus" for the information.

I received the below advice from an attorney in another forum.

"Make the CIS aware of your approved I-130 and ask that they approve your AOS on that basis. Send a copy of the I-130 approval notice, together with a copy of the I-485 receipt notice to the correspondence address shown on the lower left side of the receipt notice."

According to that attorney, it looks like I can interfile I-140 with I-130. Any thoughts/comments on this?

Thanks.

I received an RFE that put my I-485 on hold,

"In order to process your application further you will need to submit the following:

1. Evidence of your lawful admission or parole into the United States. Such evidence includes, but is not limited to, Form I-94 Arrival/Departure Record, or a copy of the nonimmigrant visa page of your passport showing admission to the United States.

OR

2. If you last entered the United States without inspection, you must submit evidence of your eligibility for adjustment of status under section 245(i) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). To be eligible for adjustment under 245(i) of INA, you must be the beneficiary of an immigrant visa petition or application for labor certification filed on or before April 30th, 2001. Unless not required in the instructions for Supplement A, you must pay the required section 245(i) surcharge fee.

Please submit evidence of eligibility under section 245(i) of INA and a completed and signed Supplement A to Form I-485. Evidence of eligibility includes Form-I797, Notice of Action for Form I-130, I-140, or I-360. This form must have been filed on or before April 30th, 2001. You must have been the beneficiary, spouse of the beneficiary, or eligible childe of the beneficiary. The relationship had to exist on or before April 30th, 2001 or when the petition was filed."

I came across from Canada when I was five years old as a visitor, did not have a passport as one was not required to enter the U.S. from Canada. When we entered we intended to visit my mothers husband and then all of us go back to Canada. However we decided to stay here. My question is, what can I provide as evidence of entering the United States since I did not have a passport and entered as a visitor so I do not have an I-94, and I believe I dont apply to the 245(i).

I called Immigration and they mentioned form I-102 to replace I-94, theres an option E on the form that says "I was not issued Form I-94 when I entered as a nonimmigrant, and I am filing this application together with an application for an extension of stay/change of
status." Would this be the right route? Would I receive an I-94? Is there something else I need to send?

hi all,


I wrote a thread earlier saying I want to withdraw application for my H-1B stamping since it is stuck in admin processing and I will now travel using my AP. I called up the embassy asking them about the procedure and they told me to email at nivnd@state.gov and requesting withdrawing the case. Do I need to explain to them that I want to travel back and I will do it on AP . Also do I need to tell things like I am needed urgently back to join my work.

Please let me know,

Thanks,

Ravi

Hi Louisiana,

How do we go about setting up a State Chapter? Are there just the three of us from LA? I am in NOLA (d'uh, my alias is a dead giveaway).

What's the next step?

Can we go to local USCIS office and get new I94.Does that resolve the issue.

No, CIS local offices don't do this. There is no mistake on the I-94, so the only way to change it is as described in the prior answer.

My understanding is that state in which you work you need to pay the taxes for that state. And I believe sometime in GC interview they ask for tax papers , during that time it should not create problems.

hi gurus

I am not getting paid equivalent to what is there in my LC. Is there any
problem to get approval of my I-458?

I-140 pending
I-458/EAD July filer
EAD RD Sep-07
I-458 pending

I have a approved I-140. Applied for 3 year H1 extension in Oct 2006. 3 year H1 extension approved on 5th Feb 2007. Received H4 dependents extensions. Did not receive my I-797. Requested my consulting company to check why I did not receive my I-797 with I-94. They lied to me that they called USCIS and I/they/lawyer will get copy in 30/45 days. My MN drivers license got canceled/suspended on 04/24/2007 because I did not submit approved I-797/I-94. Company lawyer informed my company that they applied under premium processing for duplicate copy on 04/16/2007. I called USCIS and they told me this is bullshit. There is no premium processing for duplicate document. Lawyer does not want to reveal which form he filed for duplicate document. I also applied this week using form I-824 for duplicate copy of approved H1 extension. Called USCIS, and they said I will get a receipt number in 15 days and copy in 2-3 months. This copy will not include I-94, so it is useless. What options do I have. My lawyer is an American and he thinks it is below his dignity to answer my calls.

What options do I now have? Any options will be appreciated.

I think you can file Form 120 for a duplicate I 94 in case it is lost/mutilated etc. please check USCIS website. hope this helps

One year for my labor had not elapsed and I had no other way to get the 8thyr extension so my attorney applied for the premium processing, it was applied on 16th and got it approved by 27th of June. If your labor has met the 1yr req. you could always apply for the 1yr extn, don't see why you won't be able to use the 1yr labor rule..hope this helps,

People who are in US just for conversion rate can now think of this move. I USD = 39.4 INR, 1 Canadian $ = 37.xx. Not a big difference.

Thank you. So we do have to answer "Yes" to all the 3 questions!


Answer No to 2, Yes to 1 and 3.

Immigrant Petition is I-140.

HI DAN19, don't worry your parcel will go to lower weldon str. I lived in Burlington VT for couple of years and williston is part of Burlington town and St. Albans is 3 exits from Burlington. Williston could be sorting station for FedEx. and last scan sweep.



My attorney send me an email stating that my sister's H1 transfer was filed to WILLISTON, VT. Do they normally send to that address or is it somewhere else?

I thought it was Saint Albans,VT

I am in H1 status and my wife is in H4 status. She received credit for an amount for which she received an 1042-S form. Also received a 1098-T form which shows the credit amount. Where do I show the amount in the 1040 or 1040 EZ ?
