140/485 concurrent applied aug 17, 2007 at NSC. PD May 2007 EB3 India.

I am with same H1b employer though now on EAD...h1 expired as PERM not applied until 6th yr h1b, so had no option.

As most know, NSC concurrent 140's will be taking forever to be processed. I have no hope for approval anytime soon. Actually I am expecting a RFE or NOID (hope not) because my labor cert approval was not submitted with my 140/485 due to timing of PERM approval and July fisasco deadline...i am lucky i still got receipt and EAD/AP.

My question...I'm basically miserable at my job. My employer is idiot who's making life difficult. I want to change jobs. I know it's very risky with 140 not approved.

1) can i invoke ac21 since 140/485 pending over 180 days? And if I can, what happens if employer revokes pending or approved 140?

2) With AC21...occupational outlook code is most important? Job title? or job responsibilities? I am looking to try and change what i'm doing...the job code is the same...the titles are somewhat different...and so are the job responsibilities...however it's same job code.

Please suggest....I don't think I can take any more with my employer.

:(

He is just hopeful.

Interesting. The Chair of the Senate's Immigration Subcommittee is sounding pretty confident that an immigration plan will be signed by the President before 2009 is over.

I was with couple of Big 5 consulting firms. Its good to work for them to add some weight to your resume. But I feel they really dont care for employees let it be immigration, comfort feeling, value to the employees etc.

So make terms clear before joining.

You will have to redo your LC, I 140 and I 485. But you can port your priority date from the earlier application.

hi,

i entered the US on AP in Jan 2010, and at the time of entry, my I94 validity was set for
1 year (viz Jan 2011) - and the AP also noted "AoS" status on it.

(a) Is the validity of my I94 (and thus my legal stay) 1 year, or as i have read elsewhere,
if AoS is pending, then its valid till the AoS case is decided?

(b) If the validity is 1 year, what is the process for extending the I94 validity?

thanks for your time,

TSC is down and they are using a new system named "CHIMP" to enhance the operations.

:D

good one

No point in dreaming about getting any support from dems, they will bring up DREAM act for illegals and will hold legals hostage until CIR.

Our best chance is to get support from the republican pro-legal immigration senators like - Cornyn, Kyl, Judd Greg etc..

Hello,
I am working with A on h1b and the visa expires on May 1st 2010.
Recently I got another offer with B and they filed my h1b transfer (regular).
The offer they gave me verbally is different from what's on the offer letter, when I contacted them there insist that they never "promised" , so I did not want to take that offer now.
Can I now ask employer A to file the extension and continue working with A?. Will that create any issues if the transfer with B gets Approved/rejected?. or is there any alternate?. Please help.

Thanks in advance.

Are there people who are current now, who have no Priority Date mentioned on the I-485, EAD and AP receipts? (i.e. the PD box is blank)

The priority date is shown on my I-140 receipt, but not on the aforementioned documents.

Does anyone know how to correct this problem? Thanks much.

Guys,
I spoke to another Border Post official and he suggested that i drive uptp the nearest border and they would refuse my entry to Canada as i don't have a valid visa and i can turn around and come back to US and i can get a new I-94. Do you think it would be safe to do this ?
Any advices?

You will not get new I-94 for travel to Canada less than 30 days.

What visa status are you in? If you are on H1, your H1 renewal will have the new valid I-94.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. But I guess I didnt frame my query properly. What I intended to ask was if the couple going to be married on a date x can fill up the forms online before wedding for an appointment on a date after their wedding?

Thanks again!

Nice work. Not completely centered, the water draws your eye all the way through the photo, the texture of the rocks makes the negative space some interest.


I like it.

Well nevermind, i somehow figured things out and if ya wanna check out my test movie go to http://teamnerd.tripod.com/random/tkt.html

mwin,

I saw your post in this forum about AR-11 while out of country. I am in the same situation now. My wife is also out of country and I recently moved to a new apartment.

Could you please kindly provide me some guidance like how you resolved this issue.

Thanks for help in advance.

From Ron Gotcher:
ImmInfo Newsletter:* The effect of an employer withdrawal of an I-140 (http://imminfo.com/News/Newsletter/2010-07/employer-withdrawal-of-I-140.html)

If an employer withdraws an I-140 after it has been approved, however, the employee is entitled to keep the priority date and use it for any subsequently filed I-140. It doesn't matter that the new I-140 may be for a different job, a different employer, a different location, or even a different preference classification. Once an I-140 is approved, the employee "owns" the priority date forever

One of my friend is in the same situation and he has been told by his lawyer that he can get his part-time concurrent H1 Extn for 3 years based on fulltime concurrent H1 approved I-140.

He is going to apply the same soon.

Good Luck!

Thank you very much for the quick response. Do you think I can talk to your friend for further details?

1. There is no need that you should stay with your father.

2. For Canada trip go through Canada Web site based on your nationality. you might need an visa depending on your nationality.

Guys,

Can someone please let me know whether it is possible / advisable to travel while H1 approval is pending?

She is currently in H4 with a valid stamp in her passport. She filed for her H1 and was selected in lottery. She has a receipt but her approval is pending.

We were interested in making a short trip to India before Oct 1. But the consulting firm advised against it as according to them if she re-enters in H4 (even before Oct 1) while her H1 approval is pending, her H1 application will be cancelled and she has to restart the process all over again. Something to do with the last status on re-entry.

My thoughts are: The change of status will be effective Oct 1, 2008, why would it matter if I travel prior to that date?

A lot of you may have experienced the same dilemma, so please let me know...

thanks.

Thanks for sharing!!

We have filled on July 19th Not yet received the FP notice.
