By writing about H1b (rather myself) I think I just got carried away with my emotions...but I did not edit it...atleast my emotions are better then their myths...

Here is what I posted in their comments section.

............
I am SHOCKED to see the H1B facts posted on your website!!!.

Please get your facts right before quoting something out for public to read an interpret.

Any misinformation regrading already sensitive issues in totally inappropriate and unjustified.

Lawful non-immigrants are already facing lots of misrepresentation, you and people who may believe in your news should understand that any H1B is not a threat...infact any competition is not a threat.

If knowledge was a threat then mankind would not have evolved to this stage today.

Hope that you will agree by my thoughts and in case of any concerns, revert your questions to my email.

Thanks

Hi Everyone,

Our Immigration status is EAD and my wife is pregnant,
We are very happy with the news..

There is lot of possibility for us to be in India during due date, based on few important events in family.
We would like to know.. if baby is born in India then what possibilities are there for us to bring baby along with us?
(if mother stays in India for couple of more months)

can baby also get Green Card when we (parents) are allotted green card?

All your advices are always appreciated.

Thanks & Regards,
Satya.

Note: Admins if required, please close this thread and redirect to any existing ones, as i could not find one I have posted a new thread.

Firstly, Congratulations!!

If you have the baby in India, the baby cannot come to the US till your PD becomes current. Till then you cannot add any dependents to yr 485. Given that yr priority date is EB3 2007, that might be a long long time. It's a huge risk to take.

The other alternative is for you to switch back to H1, so you can get the baby here on h4. I'm not sure what that will do to yr 485 though.

misdemeanors can be CIMT's if they involve theft or dishonesty. a single misdemeanor might qualify under the petty offense exception, but because your son now faces a second conviction, the petty offense exception won't apply. One question: are you a naturalized US citizen? If so, your son might actually be a US citizen as well.

Thanks Raj. I am sure this will be helpful to many other people here too. Appreciate your time to write it as points.

What if the company with your first 140 withdras th applciation (assuming 140 was approved for more than 180 days and I485 is also pending more than 180 days)
Also when you join the new company what kind of benefits you get in term of Salary/ Position/ Promotion?

Could you please provide your input on this . Thank You.
Port 2003 PD at the time of filing 2nd I-140, keep copies of old labor + 140 and new approved labor and a cover letter should specify that the beneficiary for both is the same ie YOU and you are not doing labor subsititution. I have been successful porting my pd from 03- the only difference was that my job classification was the same and salary for 2nd job was more

now, I'm really confused . Based of the last comments, she or he (I'm not familiar with indian names- sorry ) travelled outside USA while application for extension was pending . and got approved AFTER arrival .

guys, there is something, somewhere to read or to get a proper information ?

Hello,

Myself and my spouse are on H1b. I am on H1b(industry) and my Spouse H1b is through non-profit.

Please let us know how best we can be a backup for each other in case of any unavoidable circumstances.

a)If I get laid-off or fired, can I jump to H4 and then come back to H1b without being subjected to cap?

b)What are the other backup plans we can have.

thanks for your time.

If your H1 already expired, you are out of status from the date your H1 ext was denied.....Open a Motion to Reconsider immediately.......

Other option is to find another employer who is willing to file your H1 ASAP. Since the reason for H1 denial was not based on your profile but due to the petitioner, you should get your H1 transfer approved without any issues.....However, its solely upto USCIS whether to transfer your H1 as an extension of stay (I-94 attached) or without an extension (no I-94), in which case you will have to go out of the country, attend the visa interview and re-enter on the new company's H1....If the gap between the H1 denial and new H1 application is small, USCIS generally extends status without any issues.....As currently there is a gap in your H1 status, I dont think you can start working like others do based on the H1 transfer receipt notice......You should immediately consult an attorney and let him handle your case....The key for you is to act fast without any delay. Else, it will jeopardise your 485 application....

Regarding 485, if your current employer is co-operative, then there will be no issues at all....You can just go back to work for him once you get the EAD......File Motion to Re-Open or H1 transfer ASAP....Good luck

There are no TAX on selling price as long as you stayed in the house for 2 year , you can exclude up to $250,000 ($500,000 for a married couple)

If you meet the two-year ownership and use tests for a principal residence, and don't sell more than one principal residence in any two-year period, you can exclude any capital gain tax on the sale - up to the $250,000 or $500,000


When you close your sale, your real state lawer will pay to your bank, your real estate agent, your reality transfer fee and other misc fee like Attorney fee etc.

I have sold 2 houses in last 7 years and no real estate lawyer ever asked for 10% tax!!!


More over are you making any money on the property sale now a days?!



FED allows

Thanks for confirming! No i m not looking to sell in this market :D (although if i have to sell i will still break even) i have a rental property that i was thinking of selling early last year and the lawyer mentioned this to me... so i wanted to confirm!

NSC is processing 140's filed on or before Apr 6,2007 - Once the processing dates shows your filing date, on 31st day, you can ask your employer to open a service request. NSC respond to your SR within 45 days. Hope this helps.

I don't think the dates for NSC is on or before Apr 6, 2007.

My 140 details:
RD: Apr 30,2007
Approved on May 03,2007
Regular Processing


FYI..

Safer way is to get legally married before GC gets approved. You can file her I-485 when she comes to the US.

ICICI is worst when it comes to exchange rates:

I have used many transfer services in past years so far and these are worth mentioning.

In Order of exchange rates:

-SBI Online (Now simple to register too and very nice one)
-Remit2India (has specials, but careful they don't fullfill it)
-HDFC (Internally uses same service of remit2India)
-CityBank
-ICICI
-Western Union

Remember all of them ask for SSN nowadays and having SSN on some unreliable site databases may be little risky.

:D

As soon as you adjust your status to F1 your I-485 becomes void. Further having and EAD has nothing to do being on F1.

In short it is not easy to go back full time studying while your I-485 is pending.


This second point is not true. Either that, or the USCIS is not enforcing that requirement consistently. I renewed my EAD 3 times so far, but never had to provide any salary statements with my renewal applications.

Why not other chapter follow this kind of a small event to bump up the letter numbers???

The point-based system will not be good for this country. Many other countries have point-based systems such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, UK, etc. The most who immigrate in these countries on the point-based system don't have jobs. Only those should be allowed to immigrate who has the job offer here. All the immigration fees and expenses to immigrate should be borne by the employer offering the job.

Not only this, the people who promote this point-based system are interested in shutting off immgration based on family unification. Why you would not like your own family members to be here, when they all have been allowed until this day to bring their own family members from European countries.

No ones looking to shut off family immigration, it will never ever happen, they are only discussing "preferences" and for the most part its a no brainer that the qualified folks should get preference for the betterment of this country and to compete globally (if you view it from an american's point of view).
I don't know all the pros and cons but I don't see anything wrong in it.

Hi Guys,

I Fedex my 485 package on July, 11th and it got reached to USCIS on July, 12 (I have the acknolegement) but still did not receive the receipt number. I am seeing who filed after me started getting receipt numbers.

I am kind of concerned about it as I did not see any movement in my case.

Any inputs Or wondering if anybody else facing similar situation??????

Appreciate your inputs.

Thanks,

M

Its a good idea to gather support letters from employer. However, I have doubt that American corporations will openly support us. Two reasons:

1. No corporation would like to get the ire of local population, which does not even understand the difference between legal vs illegal immigration.
2. The longer legal immigrants get stuck in the limbo ... the better for the employers. That's why corporations always ask for more H1B visas, but almost never voice for faster green card processing.

My 2 cents.

hi dionysus
i got this from some requirement agencies

Dear sansas,

We have seen a lot of such rumors. Can you be more specific and provide sources ? Logically thinking, this cannot be true at all.

Admins, May I request you to close this thread if sansas is not able/willing to provide sources for his post.

Thanks

thanks guys.. thats informative riva2005.. The intention is not to screw with her application, but understanding the intricacies so that I can expedite my seperation. It is indeed a pain, with no kid, us both being independent, however with a townhome, with both our names on it. I am hoping and planning for an amicable settlement and one of the things that was debated as the gray area was this whole immigration - GC/485 derivative status that I had to reply - "please verify with an attorney" . The hold up is because of the want for an amicable settlement and agreement of terms, which I guess I will never have in entirerity.

I would like to suggest that anyone in Indiana who can make it meet at the Starbucks coffee location in Westfield this Saturday.

This is at US31 and 146th Street north of Indianapolis.

I propose 11am.

Even if there are only half a dozen of us surely we can achieve more than as individuals.

Ok, count on me and will be there at 11:00 am.

how can I get a copy of my approved I-140?....my lawyer won't give it to me...heck he won't even give me the case#

please help
