Politicians are used to pander to their audience.
All he did was to use some keywords - "strategic alliance"; "peace"; "fight terror"; "immigration reform" etc.
He needs to list out the specific issues that he thinks are issues; and then propose a solution that would not only fix the said issue, but also prevent it from recurring.
Broad statements don't mean anything. Everyone knows the immigration system in this country is broken. But no politician has listed out (nor acknowledged) the root causes of the broken system.

But unfortunately, being a politician, he will not say anything that would put him in a corner.

Yes, go ahead and upgrade your pending H1 extension to premium processing. As per the law, USCIS can deny your H1 extension if a 485 is pending at the time a decision is taken on the H1 extension petition...This is a possibility only if they check if a 485 is pending while they adjudicate your extension petition.....

I will be going to a USCIS roundtable on customer service on Sept 23.

I am being told that this roundtable is with other USCIS customers facilitated by USCIS staff. From what I know, the focus will be on customer service.

Did anybody else sign up for this?

If you have any comment/feedback/experience related to customer service that you want to share, please contact me.

I am on H1b and working for a desi consulting company. My visa expired on Oct 30, 2010. My company applied for extension based upon my I 140 approved for 2years. I have valid EAD card. My wife is on H4, she doesn't have EAD.
Another company is offering me job and ready to transfer my H1b.
My Question:-

1) Can the new company can file my H1b Extension based upon my previous company I 140 and receipt notice (Because due to delays my H1b is not approved for previous employer)?

2) What if, The new company don't file AC 21?

3) What if the previous employer cancel my I 140.

Let me know what other problem can I face if I transfer my H1b to new employer.:confused:

Hi,

My H1 B is valid until 2010 (mar). But considering my entry/exit (I94) dates - I will be completing my 5 years in next 2 months.
My query:
1. Do I have time until 2009 (mar) for filing the Labor?
2. Can I file GC in the 6th year of H1 B, if yes what are the consequences?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I have my I-140 application (regular) still pending with USCIS when I got laid off. I don't stand a chance of asking my ex-employer to file a premium processing I-140, who has already agreed not to revoke anything.

Now I am looking for a new employer who will be willing to sponsor my H1B and GC. Has anybody experienced such a situation?

I am on my 9th year of H1B with PD Mar 2003 (EB3).

Thanks.

Thats awesome.Great job alterego.I wish there are more members from SW Michigan.Since most of the new interest group have not mentioned their phone number,i am also not sure where they are from.

Almost 90% of our current members are in East Michigan.

BTB,pls check your email.



Bestin,

I recently discussed this issue with a couple of people in southwest Michigan, in jobs and contract positions with Whirlpool corporation. I am not sure if that is where the interest is coming from, but it is quite possible. They are new blood and did not even know this organization existed and that it was instrumental in last years VB reversal. I offered to meet with a larger group of them and give a talk but asked one specific senior employee there to network and find out the potential interest of potential members. I shared with him the link to this website. I was told there are up to 50 members in various stages. Not sure how many would be interested, but....there is a pool we can tap into in one location.
There are a number of foreign nationals of many countries that work here too who are in the EB queue. Hopefully this can give a new impetus.

Folks!

Like me all July filers would get off the H1-B hook come this Jan. I am assuming everybody would use newly gained freedom of EAD to switch employer or jobs. So far, not many employers like to get involved in H1 hassels ( espcialy in midwest), so recruiters had good business by hiring engineers at low rate and syphoning off majority share of the pay check.

But now, with 180 days (less than 75 days) limit over, all EAD holders are free to switch employers of jobs ( I know in same or similar capacity ... but that's not the point). The point is what would be the effect on current business contracting companies have? What would be the effect of EAD on their cost models and consistent revenues?

Not saying they would cease to exsist, as H1B's would still need them. But isn't new and bold demands from engineers like me going to affect their margins? ...What do you think?

Premium processing for 140 has been suspended until July 31, 2007.

Would you mind not creating multiple threads for the same issue? You started a thread at 3:03PM.. Here is the link http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=23395


Hi

I came to us on H4 in 2007 and the got my H1B in 2008. I am not getting a job on H1 yet so i want to know that till when the H1B be valid as I am not genarating any salery and my consultant is not running my pay roll ?

And if the H1 goes dorment then what can be done next?

Thank you Sir.

My PD is current for 12 months (from Oct 2007) .

Today i got reply for my June 2008 service request, saying my back ground check is not cleared :mad:

I know from Infopass that my NC is cleared long back.:)

If your PD is not current cant do any thing but PD is current, contact your local congressman.




Hi All,

I opened a service request with USCIS when my I485 was current in 09/08 and i got response saying that still investigation into my background remains open, so the case is not yet ready for decision. I filed my I 485 in August 2005 and in july 2007(then my file was current) also i was told that the background check is still going on.

Now we know that if it has been more than 180 days after we file I485, no need to wait for background check to process the petetion. My intention is to get my file out of this loop by the time PD becomes current. If any one had this issue and got it resolved, please advise me how i can handle it.

Thanks.

I just received an email from USCIS saying that my I-140 has been denied. I touched base with the attorney & she has not yet received any documentation from USCIS. This has been the 1st change in my status since Aug 07. My case is pending at TSC.

Does anyone know if this is a fairly common occurance for USCIS to deny I-140 without an RFE? Any advise on what to do next?

Thanks.

sorry to hear that and look at this link , might throw some insight once you know the reason..

That's the toughest crossed-words game I ever played! :)

I do not think today is the day and tomorrow does not look any better..for Comprehensive Reform or Employment based reform..All we can do today here is just show some support to each other at IV

I had an EAD (OPT) soon after I completed school in 1999 and after that I switched to H1B. I am now considering filing an EAD: Should I file a New or a Renewal EAD? Thanks.
