yes u can do it

How about working on an EAD in a part-time job while working full-time on your h1 sponsored job? I assume the h1 will not become invalid in this case because EAD is being used for the part time job.

Once you use your EAD , it mean you are forefitting your H1 , H1 is a status , u cant be in 2 status at the same time. Once the part time employer uses your EAD card to give you a job basically he has to submit that info to the INS and that will automatically invalidate your H1 status. This EAD which u received is for allowing you to work which the change of status from H1 to green card is taking place.

Nope ! EB-2 India

I am talking about I 485 only. In my 485, preparer name, Phone number, E mail address and company address printed but there is no signature and date.

thanks for your response!
So were there any questions at the interview as to why you used Emergency?

filed on Aug08th, even EAD cards ordered :D

its kinda not a FIFO so take it easy
especially those who filed between Jul2-Jul17 its delayed.

Gurus,

I work for company X and in my 9th year H1-B visa. X has filed for my Eb-3 labor and I-140 and I am currently AOS (July 07 filer) on my I-485. X recently extended my H1 through Oct 2012.

I have an offer from company Y. Company Y is asking me if I want H1 extension or H1 transfer? What should I answer them. Which one ensures that I have a 3 year extension. Please advise ASAP.

Thanks.

You should tell them to file a H1 Change of Employer petition based on your approved I-140. Let them know they need to file a LCA requesting a 3 yr term and get the LCA approval and then file form I-129 requesting for a 3 yr H1.

what i mean is i am currently working full time with Company A. But I am thinking of making additional income by working for another company on part time basis. Can I file another concurrent H1? And if this concurrent H1 will be based on annual H1 quota?

I heard once that there is a special category for parttime H1. Better check with attorney.

Thanks amitjoey .

I140 is already approved Was just waiting for 180 days to finish . So in this time of recession waiting for employer to find a project(corp to corp) or should i accept the offer and wait till i get the EAD to start work .

Just sent you an email. I will pray for your cousin.

As far as I know, you can file (or even decide not to file if you have H-1) anytime. This should not be an issue. In fact, one my friend's was in similar boat, he filed his EAD after gap of 3 months and got it approved.

EAD is only a backup for most of us if we are working on H1B. But it is better to have it renewed as you never know when you may have to use it due to layoff, firing or any other unfortunate event. It is more likely to happen due to current state of economy. CIS allows us to continue working on EAD after 180 days of filling 485 under AC21 rule.

However there are some unfortunate incidents going on where IO wrongfully denied 485 petitions when a person changed jobs using AC-21. I urge you to take part in IV AC-21 letters campaign which will help you and all of us to survive any unfortunate, unforseen job loss due to current downturn in economy. It is actully very easy, just print 4 pages and mail it thru' USPS. Won't even cost you $2. Remember this for yours and our future and peace of mind. (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=22182) I humbly request you to do so for sake of our community. Thanks!

You can use your eb3 EAD.

But first to get into EB2 category, you have to first file another separate labor with a different employer (w/same employer it will most likely rejected) and then file 140 separately agian and then once your 140 is approved get it interfiled and then port from eb3 to eb2.

Is there a link to the original source data, ie the government website referenced?

Guys no response....Is immigration voice really cold now?

I filed for my EAD last year along with 485 and the lawyer sent the application to Nebraska Service Center, however, the receipt notice I received was from Texas Service Center.

Now, for Q11 - Have you ever applied for EAD from USCIS? Which USCIS office, which office should I mention? NSC or TSC?

thanks,

What is your USCIS receipt number: if LIN.... it should be Nebreska

Hi,
I have been on h1 for 7 yrs in the US and i am leaving back to my home country (India) as it is expiring this month. I plan to come back and start working for my current company next yr.
Now can they Process my new H1 in April next yr(6 months from now) or they have to wait till OCT 2007 to process my new h1. I am afraid the next yr quota will be over if they have to wait till OCT.

Here is what you could do:

1. Get a good immigration attorney
2. Recoup all the lost time on H1-B for time spent abroad in the last 7 years. Most attorneys can recover at least 4-6 months of time - this will alllow you to stay in the US for another 4-6 months
3. Use the time to find a substitute labor (either with present or new company) and file for I-140. Use premium processing for I-140.
4. Your Labor sub and I-140 should clear within the timeframe that you remain in the US - and then you can renew your H1-B for 3 year increments.

The reason i give the above solution is that - your New H1-B will only be valid after Oct 2007 - you can apply for it in April 2007 but you cannot use it until Oct. If you are really keen to stay in India for that long then obviously its ok, but you need to be sure your company will still remember you in Oct 2007 - otherwise i would suggest the alternative approach above to remain in the US.

Any idea?

Hi,

I was working with company A since June to Dec 07. and Now I got offer with company B which they are filing my H1 transfer.

but i dont have the last 2 months (Nov & Dec) paystubs from company A (have paystubs from June to Oct). because my employer dont give the latest 2 months paystub but i have proof of Bank Acccount mentioning the payroll information in bank account for month of Nov & Dec 07.

So does the Bank Account statement will be valid for H1 transfer ?

Please reply me ASAP.
