H1B is a work permit and as a dentist she can't work without a license. So H1B can't be filed without a license as she fails to meet minimum requirements to work.

Prashanthi was there on chat for 30 min and as no one turned up to ask questions she left. She will be available for chat every Thursday at 9.30 PM EST.

You may want to remind people in the day about the chat. Once it happens regularly, people will remember.

Filed on 2nd July......

EB-2 (India)
I-140 approved on 2006

No receipt yet..... No activity other then LUD on I-140 on 08/05/07

Wow... thats some memory you have there Kit.

Did you ever see the hidden scene with Lucrecia? (you need to have vincent in your party)

H1B extension beyond 6 yrs is possible under 2 circumstances:

a) Labor was filed atleast 365 days before H1B expiry date - which makes you eligible for 1 year extension (NOTE: this does not depend on priority date being current/retrogressed).

b) I-140 has been approved and priority dates are retrogressed. This makes you eligible for 3 yr extension.

So CADude should get 1 yr extension is worst case.

Coming back to your scenario, i don't think you neccessarily need copies of I-140/LC to get H1B xfr. If you have receipt #s of either, you attorney should be able to file H1B xfr case. I know of people who did that in my company. Take a printout of DOL/USCIS case status information if you have receipt # available. If you don't have receipt # as well, then i am afraid, you are out of luck and AC-21 is the only option.

ok gurus here's my situation..
1) Employer A filed my green card and I140 is approved and its been more than 180 days since 485 is filed.. no issue here... recently got my 3-year H1 extension from employer A till 2011. this extension is for 7th, 8th and 9th year... so have already crossed 6 year limit.

2) got an offer and accepted the offer from employer B and employer A does not provide any info regaring labor or I-140...

3) Since H1 extension is based on my green card application, to do a transfer or renewal, copies of I140 and labor is required (according to company B's lawyer)

4) So in this case i'm forced to use EAD and company B's lawyer are evaluating if old and new job description are same or similar...

so now my question is, is it true that transfer/renew of H1 after 6 years without the copy of I140 or labor from employer other than the one filed for your green card, not allowed? is there anything that can be done in this case?
thanks guys..

How often is finger printing required/asked for during the 485 process.
Thanks

I think you have the right forms. I can't think of anything else to add.

As pointed out this forum is dedicated to employment-based immigration. You may want to check the forum at immigrationportal.com where there is a section dedicated to family-based immigration. Good luck.

I really hate to feed the troll...
But guys, please think before you post. Feeding trolls is a waste of time, fame and everything.

Mr./Ms. fairyangel, if you are really who you are claiming to be, then you are on the wrong forum. Your status is considered illegal, and people here don't support it.

pal :)

By law, you need to notify change of address within 10 days of your move.

Just a suggestion, if you don't want to update your case status now (aka "rock the boat"), then you can commute/telecommute from old address till sept 1.

Friends,

I am EB2 with Jan 2005 Priority date, I have used AC21 and send documents before through attorney.

For my self
1. Now I got RFE on current employement and offer of proposed employment (description of position) and offered salary

2. Current address proof

For my Spouse
1. Missing G325-A need to submit one (but I did send them initially)
2. Evidence that you maintained non immigrant status

Please let me know if there is any attorney who is good and affordable

Thanks in advance
Shana

I'm sorry -- I didn't follow. Can I use the H1-B which has been extended for 3 yrs since my 140 was approved already for a yr and the visa numbers weren't current? (I've already used up by 6 yrs)

Thanks,
Murali


You new employer can file for H-1B change of status for (upto) 3 years since you have I-140 approved and your PD is not current. The fact, that I-140 was applied by current (or ex) employer, does not matter.

Hope it helps.

My documents will reach attorney on Monday and he promised to file before July4.

Hello everyone,

Today 17th August, 2007 my I-485 packet was about to reach at Texas Service Center and unfortunately when I track my packet it shows �Notice Left� on USPS site, they mention they will try to deliver on Next business day. When I called at USPS , one lady picked up phone and she told it was PO Box no so we cant deliver. It is available to them to pick up but the man from USCIS might pick it up on early monday morning. Now I am worried does that mean my mailing date is Aug 17th or Aug 20th.

SO now USCIS will accept my application or not ?? Please advise ? Any body has same situation ?


Notice Left, August 17, 2007, 11:38 am, MESQUITE, TX 75185
Arrival at Unit, August 17, 2007, 11:01 am, MESQUITE, TX 75149
Acceptance, August 16, 2007, 10:09 pm, ATLANTA, GA 30320

If ur EB2 and PD older than Jan 01, 2004 probably you have chance to refile again. During this crunch time don't trust USPS/UPS. Always use fedex...

Hope for the best..

This can easily be defeated if challenged in a court of law.
All these are effect of lobbying from Merck.

lawsuit?? oh come on. This is for a CDC recommended vaccine which might help prevent cancer!!
To my mind this is the ONLY fees that we are paying which really means something useful to us... After paying thousands of dollars in fees to USCIS (H1/485/EAD/AP), hundreds to DoS (visa stampings), and sponsoring multiple trips to Hawaii for my lawyer (his fees would make you faint) this is finally a fee that actually does something useful to the applicant, and I would gladly pay this for my family members.

do you know the reason why it was rejected (i140 I mean)

You missed the 2 year EAD and AP man. ;)

This is still under review by USCIS..man..not finalized yet..fyi..

I claimed my parents as dependents. You only need ITIN and have to do paper filing first time....
I also have notarized passport, etc, but one of the tax consultants told me that the ITIN cannot be filed now, and when I file my 2008 returns in 2009, I need to apply for the ITIN along with the taxreturn and paperfile. Has anybody else applied ITIN before filing tax return ?

my votes for bat. reflections are my fav :beam:

It is clearly written in the instruction of I-765 that :

"Adjustment applicant who filed for the adjustment under the fee structure implemented July 30, 2007"

Note that it is not whether you filed on or after July 30, 2007 but the fee that you paid for I-485. I don't know why people don't even read the basic instructions coming along with the applications form!

Simply, this is the rule. If you have paid higher fee for I-485 then you don't pay fee for EAD (new or renewal). otherwise you must pay the fee. . As most of the people who filed before Aug 17, 2007 would have paid previous lower fee and those who applied know very well that they applied in August as part of the 'faisco'; it was basically a July 2007 filing with older fee.

Many lawyers don't know anything other than making money.
