Is she now on "AOS" status or out-of-status?
"AOS applicant". So she is NOT out of status.

Is she has to file H4 as my friend's dependent?
Not necessary.

Ask both of them to have their EAD ready, if they don't have them yet.

Guru's pl help..

One of friends 485(primary) was pending and his wife's 485(derivative) also pending.
Both of them are on H1(different employers) and they both lay-off around the same time about 4 months ago. My friends employer has been running paychecks for him but his wife's employer canceled her H1.

Is she now on "AOS" status or out-of-status?
Is she has to file H4 as my friend's dependent?

Thanks in advance..

My understanding is that state in which you work you need to pay the taxes for that state. And I believe sometime in GC interview they ask for tax papers , during that time it should not create problems.

I opened a SR on July 24 2008. My priority date was going to be current starting Aug 2008, but still representative was kind enough to open SR for me . Guess at that time they were not getting bombarded by volume of calls.

It is almost 20 days and I have not received any response. CSR say it takes upto 45 days to respond.

- Did any body get a response back on their SR
- How much time it took to get response
- What format response is - Email / Letter / Call (are there any LUD's also)
- What is the content / detail level of response [Considering most of us are opening SR for case status and pending NC]

Thanks in advance

[ I am reposting this thread because in previous one I made mistake in subject, and didn't know how to edit it]
they have 60 days for sr..that is what the rep told me

I recently started work with a new employer using my EAD. I have a pending RFE on my 485 which I have to respond to in a couple of weeks. However, today I noticed that my 485 got a soft LUD of the day following the day I started with my new employer. My new employer uses eVerify but I didnt expect that it could be linked with a pending 485. Maybe I am wrong but I see no reason for the USCIS to touch my 485 until I have responded to the RFE.

Has anyone else noticed something similar when you started with a new employer using eVerify?

E Verify is a system operated by the social security administration, not the Department of Homeland Security. Cannot imagine your LUD and E verify can be remotely related. Just a coincidence. Relax enjoy your new job and let the I 485 process roll along as it will.

Well a company can be sued for any reason. I do not control the day to day activity apart from IT stuff.

My question specifically, if the company is sued, since I am a minority owner will I have to do rounds in the court appear before a judge etc..will I be summoned! Or only the executives majority shareholders are summoned.

(No I am not talking about a body shop and this is a small financial firm)

Actually, you can file 485 when your PD becomes current, even if the 140 is still pending approval. You need to submit the 140 details alongwith your 484 application.

Is it possible for someone to post a link to the same. I have tried looking and found nothing.

Thanks

If he is working as a programmer analyst on H1B visa, he will be drawing more than the required $$$$ to claim the medicare. But why ....

Based on the knowledge I have.

1. Can my hospital file for my PERM and subsequently for GC while I am still doing chief residency on cap exempt visa and technically a part of residency program which is cap exempt?

If it is a profit based company then you are no more cap exempt. You have to file a new H1B asap.

2. Will i need a new H1b process with the hospital as it has changed from cap exempt to cap status as it is no longer non profit?

They have to file a new H1B for you.

3.My prospective employment date will be June 19 2011 as till then I will be working as chief resident, so what would be the earliest date for filing the PERM and H1b application

GC is for future employment. When they apply for Prevailing wage they have to apply based on your 2011 position (Hospitalist/Teaching Hospitalist/ Primary care doctor). They can file your GC now.

Our 4-H photo club met this (well, yesterday now - it was Monday) evening, and the leader brought her new D70. She knows that I'm interested in DSLRs, so she let me shoot it for about 15 minutes with my CF card. I brought home six NEFs (from about 10 or 11 shots, but I deleted a few in the process of "exposing to the right").

The ergonomics were great from my perspective (of having never touched an autofocus SLR before in my life). After a few minutes I had the basic settings in the menus and the exposure compensation figured out, though I didn't even bother with the built in flash (I put on my Vivitar 285HV for a few shots instead).

After seeing the results of 1600 ISO (the first few were shot on this as I hadn't figured out how to change the setting yet), I don't know why you guys complain about noise so much. This thing at 1600 indoors at night beats my P&S at whatever ISO it uses in overcast daylight! Well, maybe that exaggerates a bit, but certainly not much.

Anyway, I should stick on a photo for everyone to view... This was shot in NEF, converted with the Adobe converter with Photoshop CS, and then received a light Curve to enhance contrast, a warming filter because I wasn't quite happy with the white balanced I converted the file with, and no noise reduction. Oh yeah, I applied a bit of sharpening; if anything, I try to stay on the conservative side there, since I'm not that familiar with telling how much is too much.

what are u acheiving out of this poll???? get back to work !!

Don't talk like a lousy school master. You really had not to write what you wrote.

Now coming to your question, I think many people are curious to know if ac21/rfe etc are any hold up & also if the approvals follow systematic movement pd/rd/nd OR it is all at the whim and fancy of IOs

First, there is nothing called "sponsoring a visitor visa". You cannot sponsor . Every visitor need to qualify on his/her own.
If you mean sending an invite letter and copy of your H1 to show they are visiting you , it is fine.

If you mean sending I-134 -- Affidavit of Support -- the Affidavit has no legal value. If the visitors do not have enough liquid cash, they can say that you will fund the trip (and you can send your bank statements to prove). Anybody else (like your siblings in home country) can also fund the trip. If they have cash, best is to show that as source of their trip.

Hi,
I am Indian citizen residence in USA.
In my appointment letter I saw State of Residence:Tamil Nadu.
I didnt select this option.How this information came to my appointment letter.:confused:
I selected the option before taking appointment.... Indian Citizen Residence in USA.
Is there any chance to change that.My appointment date is with in one week.
Do i have to call anybody regarding this.
Pls tell to me any other options regarding this.

Dont worry man..even the same happened in my case. No need to sweat too much on this.

Dear friends, i would like to share my experience regarding the earlier post. My brother as i told you had surrendered his I-94 to the airline while departing for canada.
He went to the US immigration at Toronto airport and the officer asked him for his I-94 which he told that airline had taken from him. Officer told that the airline was wrong in doing so and called his superior who told that it was not a problem and they issued him with a new I-94 card with out a problem and he got back into the US.
i guess the lesson is not to panic and carry all your doccuments with you. In summary, automatic visa revalidation works but please do not surrender your old or new I-94 to the ailrine if you are planning to visit canada or mexico for < 30 days.

If you show proof you are planning to go back to India if he terminates you, then the employer most likely will ask you to book the ticket and will refund the amount after you show him the ticket receipt.

You can use the approved I-140 from company A to get a 3 year H-1 for company B assuming your priority date is not current. However, because you have not been working for company A, you are technically not in valid non-immigrant H status and though Company B's H-1 petition should be approved for three years, the extension may not be granted. This means that at some point you would have to leave, get a new H visa and then return.

I too got the soft lud's on May 21 for all of my 485. There is no change in the current status. Could that be FPs are sent or just a regular batch update? I don't know.

This is a mad rush

A frequent question that arises is whether a foreign national living in the United States for a certain number of years can obtain permanent residency based on the years of living in the United States. There is no law or regulation currently in place allowing foreign nationals to automatically obtain permanent residency based on the number of years residing in the United States. There are however, many ways foreign nationals can immigrate and obtain permanent resident status. Two ways to obtain permanent resident status are based on employment and family sponsorship.

One of the ways foreign nationals can obtain permanent residency is based on employment. The U.S. employer will sponsor the employee to qualify under a certain visa category. Specifically, the foreign national may qualify under one or more of the employment-based &ldquo;EB&rdquo; visa preference categories that are divided into four separate categories.

The four EB visa preference categories are:

EB-1: Extraordinary Ability, Professors, Researches, or Executives, filed on form I-140
EB-2: Exceptional Ability in the Sciences, Arts or Business, filed on form I-140
EB-3: Skilled Worker, Professional, Or Unskilled Worker, filed on form I-140
EB-4: Immigrant Religious Worker, filed on form I-360


Another process to obtain lawful permanent residence in the U.S. is through family sponsorship. That is, either a U.S. citizen or permanent resident family member or as a fianc&eacute; to a U.S. citizen and subsequent marriage. The process begins by either the U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident relative filing form I-130 Petition for Alien Relative or form I-129F Petition for Alien Fiance with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS). Just as in employment-based sponsorship, there are visa preference categories in family-based sponsorship. Family-based &ldquo;FB&rdquo; preference categories are divided into four categories.

FB-1: Unmarried sons and daughters of U.S. Citizens
FB-2A: Spouses and children of lawful permanent residents of the U.S.
FB-2B: unmarried sons and daughters of permanent residents of the U.S.
FB-3: Married sons and daughters of U.S. Citizens.
FB-4: Brothers and sisters of U.S. Citizens who are at least 21 years old.

The above preference categories are subject to a numerical limitation. More information on these visa categories is available at the U.S. Department of State&rsquo;s visa bulletin at: www.travel.state.gov (http://www.travel.state.gov)

Has anyone requested premium processing of I-140 based on expiry of the sixth year of H1B. My 6th year H1B expires next month and I think I am eligible for premium processing.

Hi Gurus i need your help, here is my situation :
Currently I am working for company B and have not started PERM process yet from this company. But i have an approved i 140 from company A and my lawyer is saying that i can go ahead and file 485 on the basis of approved I 140 from company A. Meanwhile he will start PERM from company B and he is saying that by the time USCIS open my application of 485 and create RFE I will have I 140 approved from company B and since it's the exact same job we will be able explain USCIS about the intent of filling.
Is it ok to go ahead and file 485 becoz i will not have the employer's letter from company A and also the paystub will be from company B and not A.

Am i heading towards trouble ??? please help GURU's

thanks in advance.

What's your PD? if it's around 2002/2003 - then you will become current after Oct anyway, so you can apply with "clean" 485. Then I wouldn't bother. If your PD is 2006/2007 - then it's worth trying, it may work. At the worst case 485 will be denied, you will then file another "clean" one in that case.
