Hi,
My wife is going to apply for both H4 and H1 visa. Since marriage is in March end, she will come to US on H4 visa. Her H1 visa will be applied as if she were in India. Now her I94 will say H4. Once she gets her H1B, she will have to go out of country to get new I94.
We can go to Mexico to get it stamped and hence get new I94. If for some reason, H1B is rejected, can she still enter the US on H4 visa?

Thanx,

Been there. Done That. U should be just fine. Pls remember to contribute to IV.

I thought labor cert is tied to a specific position and once I change my profile completely (say from software engineer to product management) I need to re-apply PERM eventhough I work for the same company.

Any thoughts?

What is your LC Priority date? Many of my friends had used LC Sub with PD earlier to Dec 2004 and all their applications were approved in TSC. The yardstick for transfer of LC sub cases from TSC to NSC is mystery and we have to find a way to solve it.

Hi,
I am currently in L1B visa , i am in US for 40 Months. The total period that i can be in US in L1B is 5 yrs .

I am planning to do my H1B this year (2008), having already elapsed 40 months, if i get a H1B will the period elapsed ( 40 months in L1B) be accounted or i will get the H1b for 3 yrs.

Thanks

I feel he will not ignore legal immigrants. There will be action for sure, as it appears. We should take this as positive when he says +ve about H1B. If he said something bad, then thats bad also for others.

The guys a communist. " From each according to his capability, to each according to his need". Poor illegals need GC more than we do.

Your 485 has to be reapplied and priority dates come into picture. You can change jobs but have to use H1b based on approved 140. You have to start the GC process all over again but you can retain the priority date because your 140 is already approved.

If you are a IV member living in NY and want to be actively engaged in the NY chapter activities, please send a PM to bottlemani. If all those in NY get together, it will be easier to plan joint visits to congress people: house members and senators. Even if you don't have a car, we will be able to coordinate better if we know you are willing to spare some time.

I am sure there are many members in NY. It is a big state with several businesses.

Please do remember: we have to do something more actively in order to get out of this mess. The more we procrastinate, the worse it will get. If you have suggestions, regardless of whether you live in NY, please do post them here.

As a first step, please put your name on the NY chapter.

Give me a green dot if you can.

Probably they've separate pdf for EB appointments or following USCIS bi-specialization strategy :-) Good find anyways...

Hi

I have a friend that has a BS in Computer Engineering, and a MS in Electrical Engineering.
Can you guys give me sample job description that will qualify for EB2. He has 3 years of experience but that was acquired before obtaining the degrees.

Company is really flexible with job description.

Thanks in advance.

Hi all,
I have a Question?
Anybody whose LUD is not updated but received the EAD card directly in mail?
Please respond.
Thanks.

I am in a similar situation but since my receipt number is a Texas number I will write Texas Service Center. No point confusing the USCIS.

hello all,
Has anyone in Charlotte, NC got a extension on the Driver's license on the basis on the H1-B renewal application receipt.

My spouse's driver's license expires this month end. I have applied for h1-b/h4 renewal, yet to receive the application receipt.But wanted to know if anyone here in Charlotte,NC got a extension/grace (30days or 90days) on the basis of the receipt.

thanks.

I have a similar situation. My NC license is expiring and I am not sure if i will get the H1 renewal in time. Were you able to get it extened with the application receipt?

Thanks for your help.

ah, found it. http://vector.tutsplus.com/articles/theory/six-things-i-think-about-when-im-mutating-a-rabbit/

inspiration is one thing...visual plagiarism is another.

Dano and Sledge_hammer,

I am also looking for attorneys in the DC metro area to help me with AC-21 questions/process. I was looking at the obvious choices Rajiv Khanna and Murthy - but if you have any other suggestions it would be helpful.

Thanks....

Thanks for replying i am really appreciated I know about GC but it will take about 8 month.
I will start process soon.
But I want this happen earlier.
I need some advice what i can do to convince US embassy to approve her visa for now.

It is withholding...you have to give the tax sooner or later, what is your concern ? If your company is not allowing and are stupid enough to withhold money, have them withhold more money and take it back from the Fed. next year, what is the big deal ?

I recently change employer on EAD in NJ and new employer is saying that I can't claim withholding allowance for dependents on EAD; I had no issue with my previous employer and was claiming 6 withholding allowances; I told them that my previous payroll processor was ADP and none of my friends on EAD had any issues claiming dependents; They are saying that this is new 2010 rule change and you need to have GC for it. I told them that all dependents have SSN and passes 182 days resident alien test rule..they are not agreed..Is it true? Please let me/send any links/information to prove it...

Thank you qplearn and bottlemani for taking a lead in your state chapter.

Hi Gurus,

I am in company A on H1B and doing H1B transfer to Company B.

Company B is saying that I can join the same day on which the H1B transfer packet is received by USCIS.

if the docs are delivered on SEP 01 2009 can I join on the same day, or I should join from SEP 02 2009

Get the receipt notice and join them.

Group,

This morning I saw a commercial (California Group Blames Immigrants for Climate Change) (http://www.triplepundit.com/2009/11/california-group-blames-immigrants-for-climate-change/)on the local Bay Area channel and was simply surprised, I mean out of words surprised.

I cannot believe how low these anti-immigrant groups can and will go to push their point, which obviously is nothing but full of BS, but it certainly adds fuel to the fire.

Thanks fromnaija.

Will my I485, which was filed in July 2007, be automatically re-activated if my EB2 AAO appeal is approved?

I won't be filing my new I140 until probably sometime next year as I am just working on my PERM advertisements now. I am assuming that there is no time limit to using a priority date from an earlier I140.
