Thanks. I see the same from murthy.com
The requirements are that (a) the foreign national must be the beneficiary of a labor certification filing made 365 days prior (or I-140 for those cases that do not need the labor filing); or (b) the labor and I-140 must be approved, with no visa number (based upon the priority date) available.
MurthyDotCom : Filing LC during 6th Year of H1B (http://www.murthy.com/news/n_lc6th.html)

I had a positive skin test when I was last tested (18 months ago) but a negative chest x-ray? I did not go on any med's because I suspected that I may have had the TB vaccine for international travel. When my mom supplied my immunizations (yes, it took 18 months to find them!) the only thing I saw that might be the cause of this positive skin test was an immunization that I had when I was one year old that says "TB tinc." I have no idea what that immunization is. Does anybody out there have any ideas?

Here is a quick update from the California Service Center regarding this new fee. The additional filing fees of $2,000 for certain H-1B petitions and $2,250 for certain L- 1A and L-1B petitions is applicable to petitioning employers who employ 50 or more employees in the United States and 50% of the petitioner�s employees are in H-1B, L-1A or L-1B status. The PL 111-230 fees do not apply to petitions requesting an extension of H-1B, L-1A or L-1B status with the same employer (only for initial filings for a new beneficiary).

When the fee is not required, it is critical that the petitioner explicitly acknowledge this and explain why it is not required in the I-129 filing. If this is not done, USCIS will likely issue a Request for Evidence asking for a statement from the petitioner, causing unnecessary delays in processing.


The Service Center previously stated:

Until the Petition for Nonimmigrant Worker (Form I-129) and the Nonimmigrant Petition Based on Blanket L Petition (Form I-129S) are revised, USCIS recommends that all H-1B, L-1A, and L-1B petitioners include, as part of the filing packet, the new fee or a statement or other evidence outlining why this new fee does not apply. USCIS requests that petitioners include a notation indicating whether or not the fee is required in bold capital letters at the top of the cover letter. The fee, statement, notation, or other evidence should be provided with each petition submitted. Where the fee or documentation is not submitted with the filing, or where questions remain, USCIS may issue a Request for Evidence to determine whether the additional fee applies to the petition.The following is a sample statement that the petitioner employer could use:

By this statement we confirm that our company (the petitioner) is not required to pay the H-1B filing fee under Public Law 111-230. Our business does not have more than 50 percent of our employees in the United States in H-1B or L-1 nonimmigrant visa status. Therefore, we are not required to pay the additional filing fee.

Please email me with any questions regarding the above referenced info.

Folks from Ohio,

thanks

your brother have 2 year left in his engg , ask him to keep these prrof and if possible letter from collage .

he should be okay .

Shouldn't the whole decision be given in 15 calender days ? My 7th year H1 ext was filed 11 days ago. No clue of a receipt number yet.

Mine was applied for 7 th year Ext in Regular Processing and got receipt on May 15 . Bumped to PP couple of week back got a notification on 06/20 saying request was recived for Premium Processing ,Same day recipt date was re-set to 06/20 ( earlier 05/15) .Waiting for the approval some time this week .

I think you will have to wait until the first transfer petition is completed. Please check with an immigration attorney. You can file I-907 to expedite the processing using premium processing. Again, please check with an attorney before you proceed.

Dear All,

I saw your website & thought may be you guys can help me solving my query about H1 transfer. I am holding a H1B valid till 2009. A month back a new company had filed a H1 transfer & I started working for them. Now I have 2 paystubs from this new company & I am getting a very good offer from another company & I would like to go for this offer. So my question is on the basis of these two recent paystubs can I get my visa transferred to the 3rd company while another visa transfer is in progress?

Use the format suggested by Solaris. I also got in the same format. Please fill in your company details.

and it means to "paint/draw" so it has huge relevance to kirupa.com.

Hi all, I need help in explaining my situation if someone can help me . Here is my info that I know
EB3 ROW
PD : April 6, 2006 (PERM)
July Filer.
i140 and i485 July 2007 (Received by USCIS Texas Center September 10, 2007)
AP and EAD received September 2007

I want to understand the process so I can know the meaning of the Visa bulletin based on my situation.
I am guessing that right now I will have to wait for my i140 to be approved first before I can talk about i485. I checked the processing time for i140 at TSC and it is August 15, 2007. Any crazy estimate when I should get the approval?

Once my i140 is approved then I can look and match my PD with the visa bulletin EB3 ROW for adjustment of status.

I know there would be some more steps than these above. But are these statement above correct/incorrect?

Thank you very much

you can check the status of ur I-140 on uscis by providing ur receipt #

you would get more information on processing steps by going through the posts in this forum.

I tried applying for License Renewal inn NC when my H1 was pending with USCIS, they strictly told me that they will not issue the license until we get the approval notice from USCIS. if you have any luck please let me know?

hi,

I am a little confused on my case. This is how it is:
I recently got married and am back in the US. My wife is employed in India and shall be filing for her H1 this year(Apr08).
At the same time,given the unsurity of H1,we shall also be going for her H4 Visas in Mar-Apr so that she can be here in the US,ASAP.

I have a few doubts/questions:
1) Since her H1 would be filed on April 1st,do I need to wait till April 1st before going for her H4 so that her application stands clean ?
and
If I go for her H4 before April 1st(say March 29th),does her H1 filing need the H4 details ?

Also,assuming during her H1 filing she didnt have H4 and then gets her H4(say on Apr 2nd) and comes to the US. Assuming her H1 gets approved,does she have to leave the country and get her H1 stamped for change of Visa from H4 to H1(note at the time of H1 application she didnt have her H4 Visas) ?

I hope I am able to explain my confusion well. Any help on this is appreciated.

Thanks !!

I already checked with my attorney - a scanned copy is enough

The regulation bans improper commerce and payment for labor certifications. It bans the sale, barter, or purchase of labor certifications. Employers cannot seek or receive payment of any kind for activity related to the labor certification. This includes payment of the employer's attorney fees and costs. Individuals can pay for their own legal fees for separate representation, but the labor certification is regarded as the employer's cost. If there is dual representation, the employer must pay the attorney fees and related costs. This applies only to the labor certification stage.

Even if the law prohibits it, still companies pass fees and costs to the employee...
