Hi
I am currently on H1b and I have applied for an extension around July 14th. My i-94 is expiring on
Sept 20th. My husband is currently on F-1. I wanted to find out in case my H1b visa is rejected, will
I have to immediately leave the country. Would it be possible for me to convert to F-2 while being in US
in case my H1-B gets rejected?

Beautifulmind,
I was not sure, hence I asked you to check with a good attorney. Will your work be different then described in your LC?
Did not mean to create confusion for you.
Good luck.

Hello! I am a new member in Iowa--Des Moines. I work for a company called Proteus, Inc. and we help migrant and immigrants in areas of health, education, job placement, etc. I have also joined for personal reasons- my husband and I are "in the process." Through this chapter I hope to establish great ties and increase my understanding of immigration issues.
Have a great day all!

I got my receipts last weekend
It was some what similar story for me.
I my case my wife's app and mine got separated-
Mine got rejected on grounds of incorrect fees (there was a single check)
my wifes app turned up after a month or so
we refiled and got the receipts
I am now trying to find out what to expect for EAD and AP
I wonder if special handling cases get a better turnaround
Keep me posted with what happens with you- and maybe we can start to geta n ide as to what to expect next

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
Just apply for labor and once the labor is approved apply for I140 (Apply in premium if USCIS starts accepting premium by the time your labor is approved). If premium is not started by the time your labor is approved then apply I140 in regular and wait for premium to start. you can change your I140 Application to premium even though you filed it in regular processing originally.
Who knows you might get the I140 approval in regular processing also before your 6 years is complete.
just do what you can

I got my receipt number for H1b application and its been more than a week but i still cannot check my status online on USCIS website.
It says case is not found ,even tried calling customer service .
Does it take time to get uploaded online ?
Did anyone else face this problem
I am not getting any information from my employer.
Is there any other way we can find out if USCIS accepted my application.
could some one please help me in this
Thanks

My wife's green card was approved on Feb 27th. My wife is currently in India with valid Advance Parole. I received her green card during March 15th. I am planning to visit India during June and bringing my wife along with me. It will be almost 5 months when I come back on July 1st week.
Will it create problem for my wife to re-enter to US? Since she has valid AP and GC card, can she enter without any problem? or does she need to come early since her GC was received ?

This should be "Department of Homeland Security" per Attorney.
for 482 the 2 checks of 325 and 70 and one check of 180$ for I765 should be payble to 'Department of Homeland Security', or 'United States Citizenship and Immigration Service'
The form says it should be payble to 'Department of Homeland Security' and the immigration voice 485 help thread says it should be payble to 'United States Citizenship and Immigration Service' .
Please suggest and sorry if this si a repost. I could not find a exact answer.
Thanks

Washington, D.C. � Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-San Jose) today introduced a bill to void the recent increases in immigration fees by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). The bill would void the new fee structure set to take effect today and reinstate the previous fee structure. The bill also states that USCIS has consistently failed to reduce application backlogs and has suffered from a lack of transparency and effective management.
�Our immigration services need to move into the 21st century,� stated Rep. Zoe Lofgren. �But, USCIS has consistently failed to explain or justify the amounts and distributions of this new fee increase. While I agree that USCIS needs to modernize its existing infrastructure and procedures, they must do so in a transparent and open manner. After repeated requests over several months, USCIS has yet to provide Congress with a detailed plan for its infrastructure modernization efforts. Our immigration system should be both effective and fair; sacrificing one to achieve the other should not be an option.�
Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren is serving her seventh term in Congress representing most of the City of San Jose and Santa Clara County. She serves as Chair of the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship, Refugees, Border Security, and International Law. She also Chairs the House Administration Subcommittee on Elections and serves on the House Homeland Security Committee. Congresswoman Lofgren is Chair of the California Democratic Congressional Delegation consisting of 34 Democratic members of the U.S. House of Representatives from California.

Friends,
I just got my PERM approved and I am debating about next steps of my eb-3.
it looks now that with the current retrogression the process will take 5 years. the company I am working for is not very stable and probably will be sold in the next 24 months.
I can look for another company that will sponsor me, but even if I will find one I need to start all over again and that will throw me at least 1 year back (not to mention the money I already spent so far, which was a lot)
What do you think

Hi,
My wife and I are currently working on EAD and have used the AP to entry the US. We will be going to the Canadian consulate to apply for Canadian Visa (want to go on vacation). I had the following questions:-
1) What all papers are required?
2) How long will they issue the canadian visa for? I am planning on obtaining a multiple entry visa. When I was on H1 they issued me a visa which was till the end of my H1 expiration date.
Thanks.
Not sure about the rules now, but when I did it in 2002, it was a single entry visa for 6 months - though it is single entry - going from US is an exception - from US it is multiple entry and it costed $50 during those times.
Documents - appp form, fee, your legal status here (485, EAD etc..), bank statements and usually they ask why r u visiting Canada and you can say "tourism"

Thanks fromnaija for quick reply..
I'll not stop my employer ( company 'A' ) to file H4 extension for her cause if her H1 thru company 'B' is not approved, my wife will be out of status...
Based on you reply,
all I can do is to request my employer to file H4 extn ASAP to avoid overlap with H1 filing...
If it cannot be done,
then I should pray that her H4 extension gets approved first......

There is a quirk in the immigration laws that allows a person working for a cap-exempt employer to start working for a cap-subject employer once the petition is filed, even if the new H-1B status cannot start until 10/1/09. If the new employer files an LCA with a start date of 7/27, you should be able to work for that new employer under H-1B portability. However, if the new petition is denied, you lose your work authorization immediately.

Hi
I have a friend that has a BS in Computer Engineering, and a MS in Electrical Engineering.
Can you guys give me sample job description that will qualify for EB2. He has 3 years of experience but that was acquired before obtaining the degrees.
Company is really flexible with job description.
Thanks in advance.
I don't think it matters when the experience was acquired as long as it is related to the job description and it is verifiable. If for some reason those three years cannot be used, you can have a job requirement as something like MS in EE/CS + 0 years experience.

You can change jobs ONLY if BOTH the following conditions are met.
1) I-140 is approved AND
2) I-485 has been pending for MORE than 180 days.
EAD has NOTHING to do with it.
