Short visits outside US, while within contigous North American territory, are not treated as " exit". So, you are fine.

Recently, I e-filed EAD renewal for me. So, there was no issue. Give some more time, like a couple of weeks and if you don't see any change, then call USCIS.

I will request to sysadmin or IV to start some Poll covering all dates according to Visa Bulletin for EB2 and EB3 for world, India and china. This poll will help everyone to see how many people are in waiting in lines and what can be expected upcoming months ....this poll will not be pin point but will give info little close to reality... Just a thought.

I have a B1/B2 visa that I'm thinking about coverting into F1 visa when I get into the US I just have few questions:
1- How long does it take to convert the B1/B2 visa into an F1 visa?
2- If my visa gets converted into the F1 visa, does that mean my B1/B2 visa is cancelled and I have an F1 visa or what am I?
2- Will it be possible to leave the country for few months(after the conversion of my B1/B2 visa into the F1) and then return back to the US with ease to continue my studies ?
Thank you very much for answering!!!
1. It takes 3-6 months to change STATUS from B-2 to F-1;
2. Your visa does not get "converted". Your status changes to F-1 if approved. In your passport you will still have a B-2 visa.
3. If you leave the country after changed status to F-1, you need to go for F-1 Visa stamp in order for you to comeback and continue studies. Risk of not getting F-1 stamp is high for those who changed status to F-1 while in U.S. I never left US after changing to F-1 because my attorney and my International Student advisor advised it was too risky to do so. This is because if US consulate denies issuing F-1 visa, the consulate my also cancel B-2 visa at the same time because both carry non-immigrant intent amongst other factors. You can't just leave for a "few months" and just comeback while studying on F-1. The F-1 visa and related I-20 documents specify how long the program of studies is and you should be attending every semester taking at least 12 credits each semester, with the exception of the last semester, in which you don't have to carry 12 credits as long as after the last semester your degree is granted.
Hope this helps. It is based on my own experience. Speak to an International Student Advisor at the school which you have selected for more details. Good luck.

It took a little over 3 months for my H1 to get renewed but I wouldn't base anything on this. Its govt... if they feel like working they will approve yours in 3 weeks and if they don't you can read Bose's issue. I have lost all respect for functioning of govt.

Thanks for replying, i have some more questions related to this
Lets say my current employer is A and next employer is B
1. Do employers normally revoke I140 when employee leaves ?
Most of the time, No. It's waste of money for employers to pay for the lawyer to send in a request to USCIS to revoke I-140. This will be more common if the lawyer is on company's payroll and gets paid a fixed amount and not per case basis.
2. If my first PERM and I140 was under EB3 category, then can i switch to EB2 category with the next company ?
Yes. As long as job qualifies/requires EB2.
3. Suppose i leave A and Join B, and after 2-3 months i join another company C, in this case will C be able to port my I140 from A ?
You can't port I-140 period. It is property of the company that filed it. Company C (D,E,F...Z) will need to redo labor, I-140 etc. Priority date can be recaptured.

Hi,
I have a situation and will appreciate thoughts on that. I was working in a company on H1B and my company got closed and Moved back to India after 2-3 months.
Now I found a new employer who has a project for me but want me to join in 1-2 weeks. SO I was wondering what options do I have?
Is it possible to apply for B1 for some time and come and simultaneously apply for H1 Transfer.
Please let me know. Your help is appreciated.
Thanks
Maya
B1/B2 is not intended for work (or to even to seek work) - The best way is to apply for H1 in premium, get it stamped and go back. If everything goes smooth, total turnaround time would be 4 weeks tops.

I have a curious situation. I have filed EB3-485 as a secondary applicant to my wife. I am currently in a job where I can't file a green card ( this is my 5th year of H1b). My understanding is one can't have a seventh year extension for H1b unless his I-140 is approved.
Should I consider changing the job and filing another GC by myself. I know I can continue renewing EAD but I still want to keep my H1b
Thanks
If you want to keep your H1-B beyond 6 years, I dont think you have any other option! You have to have your own LC>365 days or approved I140.

Hello everybody ! I am 22 years old. My parents had applied for GC under the employment based category. I, unfortunately, aged out before my parents applied I-140 because of the stupid backlogs. So I aged out even before an I-140 was filed. I was reading the Child protection act info and could not understand if I will be "automatically classified to the appropriate category" for GC which is Family 2B and retain my "original PD." Does this apply to me as I had not even filed I-140 when I aged out ? My parent's PD is Oct 2000 so does this mean I am under Family 2B with Oct 2000 PD ?? Please help me out. I am sure many of you with sons/daughters that are in a similar situation. Thanks
My son also aged out before my I140 was filed. I was told that he would not be able to keep the same priority date and it would be fixed by the date when I could apply for his family based application. So, if I were to file an I130 next week his priority date would be March 2008.
In order for the priority date to be fixed at the point when labor certification was applied for the I140 would have to be submitted before his 21st birthday and be approved within a time period that could be deducted from his age at time of approval, making him under 21 at that time.
The child status protection act is pretty useless to children in your position or my son's since the big delay occurred in the labor cert stage.
If however, you can find a different interpretation of this situation feel free to send me a personal message and I will follow through as well.
There are a number of members in IV whose children aged out so while this is not a prevalent subject matter it is one that affects more people than you might realize.

PD isn't current, but just check i-485 online status, showing "Document production or Oath Ceremony" (i.e., the last cycle).
There was indeed a soft LUD in June this year. After that nothing much else. Is there sth good coming along my way?
Appreciate if anyone here can share his/her thoughts/comments.

Hi Everyone
I am filling out my i-485 and I had a couple of questions.
A) What is the Expires On field in Part 1 referring to (right under the I-94#)?
Is it the actual expiry of my Visa (as printed on the Visa) or the date written on my I-94?
B) In part 3 it asks which consulate the Visa was issued. I got it at the American embassy in Oslo. I assume this is what they want to know. Could anyone reassure me?
C) In part 3b I list my wife who is an American. I assume that I should leave her A# blank. Is this correct? I also kinda think I read somewhere that even though it says middle initial (also in 3b) you should actually list the entire middle name? Is there any truth to this?
Thanks a lot. Hope someone can help me.
