Hi,
I have lost one of the old H4 I797 originals of my spouse. What is the process for getting a duplicate of it. I saw somewhere that I824 needs to be applied. But not sure of below doubts.
1. Who should apply I824? employer or individuals ( in this case myself)?
2. If employer need to apply, should it be current employer?
3. how long does it generally take?
4. Is it ok if I dont know the approval number as I dont have a copy of the I797.
5. What other documents are required?
Please help
Thanks,
Vikram

H1b extension can be filed only 6 months before so it will be April 10.
Going to consulate 3 months before the visa date - you will not be entertained.
My suggestion is file for H1b after coming back from India.

My PD is Nov 24th 2005. EB2- India. Filed @NSC
Dates are current for my priority date. Havent heard anything USCIS on the primary or derivative case.
I opened a SR on 08/6th because the case should have been picked up based on their processing times. Haven't yet received any response on this.
I want to schedule an infopass appointment however looks like we need to wait for 30 days from the date of opening an SR, before scheduling this appointment.
Has anyone got slapped on the hand for not following this?
I have also sought help from my senator, however no useful information has come out of it.
Are their any other options available?
If you select the option "you need information" on a case, then you don't have to wait for 30 days. But no one can assure if the infopass will be helpful (irrespective of, wait or not wait for 30 days).
Try asking specific questions (when you call or go in person) like, is my name check cleared? background check cleared? pre-adjudicated? assigned to a io? etc. You might have to try more than once depending on the rep you talk to (talk to level 2 officers when you call). Good luck!!!

Do you have the rejection letter along with the returned application or is that with the lawyer?
IMHO- it will better to resend the application that got rejected- rather than sending a fresh application
I was in a similar situation - when my wifes application was lost
my lawyer suggested- an i agreed- that we wait for her app to show up rather than reconstructing a new one
Also the rejection letter will have complete instructions on how to refile
if for some reason you are not getting cooperation from your lawyer- get a new lawyer- If I were you- I wouldn't try to re-file with a lawyer...

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.

Just curious.
Who played what role in the reversal of USCIS/DOS decision?
Did IV core / AILA / Congresswoman Lofgren worked together in the back ground? Flower campaign / SJ rally / media - newspaper articles ?
May be all of the above had its unique impact on USCIS's decision to accept I-485?
Below article is just one example. There are many like this which mention about IV. IV hired a lobbying firm and work with different people for lobbying efforts. But the whole effort was lead by IV.

This USCIS fiasco seems to have more twists than Anna Nicole Smith case.
Here is new father of the fiasco:
http://www.immigration-law.com/
07/12/2007: Truth to Rumor of Resrictionist Senators Having Influenced USCIS Decision of July 2007 EB New Filing
There is an unconfirmed source of information that a couple of restrictionist U.S. Senators influenced the USCIS decision to reject July applications for their alleged fear that since July 2007 Visa Bulletin would open a flood gate of hundreds of thousands of 485 applications, the public might take it as the government giving out a sort of "amnesty" to these floods of people. We hope that there is no truth to such rumor. However, if it is true, it is indeed shocking that individual legislators could interfere with the government process on "personal" basis and without the formal legislative process of public notice and participation. We urge the U.S. Senate to get to the bottom of this rumor and take appropriate action for correction under the Senate rules.

When you apply for renewal. The new EAD card will be issued after the date of expiry of the current EAD card, so there is no need to worry. Pl. make sure that you file as renewal.
You should not apply 6 months in advance. You should apply 3 months in advance because if you do 6 months they might approve in a month from the date you applied and the new ead will start from the day it gets approved. Applied 6 months in adv and now lost the rest of the months of current ead. Dont listen to the customer service guys they dont know anything. They told to apply 6 months in adv and when I called them after approval they were helpless to even replace it for the actual term.

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.

A friend of mine is going through this and I am posting on his behalf while he is really stressing it out. Any help would be very much appreciated.
He got his H1B through this consulting firm last April in effect from Oct 01, 2008. He finished his masters here in the US in April. He made himself available to the employer and was searching for work all summer. His employer asked him to clear a few certifications in a field unfamiliar to him. My friend took certifications but also has been on a look out for any new opportunities given the tough market.
He recently found one and is looking to switch his H1B. Now that his current employer has found out about this, he totally freaked out threatening to cancel his H1B.
Things to note:
- My friend has not been paid by his current employer. So no pay-stubs what so ever
- He had signed a contract for 2 years and some ridiculous amount of money towards damages in case he leaves
What are his options now? What if the employer sends H1B cancellation before he gets to file a new petition through the new company? Can anyone please help?
Thank you

Hello everyone,
According to my immigration-lawyer, I have received a notice for interview. I filed under EB2 category and only my and my wife's I-485 is pending. I had friends who got their GC without the interview, but i got called of an interview, so I was wondering why i got called for an interview-any specific reasons that some of us get called for an interview?
Another questions is; i read some blogs and almost all the people who were called for an interview seem to get a list of documents from the INS to take along for the interview. My attorney didnot mention anything about the list, so do all interview notices come with the document list or is it normal to not have one?
Please any insight in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
There has been a lengthy discussion on the same topic few months back, use IV search. BTW, please fill in your profile - no profile often leads no response.

QUESTION::
Can we use automatic revalidation to enter USA without getting our visa's stamped. My h1 expired in 2006 and my spouse�s H4 expired in 2006.
(Remember my spouse is applying for H1 )
ANSWER:: No, with Canadian GC you can not enter USA for long term work, without stamping. I think entry for one month is permitted.
QUESTION:: How safe it is Frequent travel to Canada and back
ANSWER:: It is safe to cross US and Canada border, if you have multiple entry visa.
QUESTION:: How safe it is to stay in Canada for duration of 3-6 months and come back to USA
ANSWER:: As long as you are in H1 B there is no restriction. In future if you enter I-485, there are complications, if you continue to travel back and forth at that time too.
QUESTION:: Once my spouse gets the H1 approved, should he move to H1 immediately or can continue on H4?
ANSWER:: Once the H1 is approved and if the new I-94 is attached at the bottom of the H1 approval, then it means the status from H4 to H1 is transferred. If there is no I-94 then the status will get transferred while you get the visa stamping.
QUESTION:: Stamping of H1 (first stamping for H1 in Canada) after conversion from H4[/QUOTE]
ANSWER:: It is ok to apply for stamping in Canada, because you have a residency there. If there is an issue then US embassy in Canada may ask you to get it stamped in your home country.
REQUEST ::
Please support IV.

It Depends on the type of security clearance. What is the type of clearance you applied for in your Dept and what agency do you work for and what type of work?
If you are in a very sensitive position which requires a secret clearance, even a GC will not alleviate the issue. Only a citizen can obtain such clearances (classified info.). On the other side, if it is background check like SF85P or NACI or SF86, normally you will be able to obtain one regardless of your immigration status. Worst case, for a clearance, you can try to obtain a Special Waiver from your Dept. I know this since I contracted for the Federal Govt on H1 got 10 yrs.
