My colleague's spouse was detained and questioned for 2 hours at EWR.
If you changed jobs, be sure to give the new set of docs. Give all the docs just the same as you (on H1) would. Including Recent paystubs and new employment letter.
This is getting way too far..
If they have a beef with H1s, they should take it with H1s.

No, Thank You!
Yes, I think that all of us will be better prepared in muting and un-muting our phones!
Membership - great suggestion - try to actually get retrogressed indivduals talk themselves about how it affects them, and then they make the case for joining IV!
Meet Lawmakers - great point to establish relationships with lawmakers / their staff
Publicity - will wait as things unfold
Liaison -great work in establishing contact with USINPAC & AAPI
Great beginnings!
I cannot believe all the effort that you guys are putting in! But, we will put in our bit as things move!
The absolute take home message - LOBBYING IS TOP-DOWN APPROACH, WHILE IV MEMBERS REACHING LAWMAKERS & OTHER GRASSROOTS EFFORTS ARE BOTTOM-UP APPROACH; THEY ARE COMPLIMENTARY, NOT MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE!

The only thing I notice is a little orage that looks unusual on the tip of the rear ducks beak. If that's not it, I don't see anything.
No, it's just the lower centimeter or so of the picture, below the beak, that I've created by cloning, the rest is as captured.
And, uh, swans, by the way. ;)

All,
Anyone can give some input on this ?
I have approved H1b renewal and my wife went to India and got h4 visa based on my approval, I have not stamped yet,
since my wife already got the visa stamped, do you think I need to verify for PIMS ?
or it should have been already verified .
Any idea?
Thanks
How do you verify for PIMS ? I am guessing you are saying that you plan to verify it before going for stamping. I am looking for an answer on how to verify PIMS on your own before going for stamping

Sorry, if this question is asked before. I could not find the answer even after a thorough search.
My EB3 � India, I-485 application is pending and I am planning to explore options of porting to EB2.
I am currently working with another employer (B) different from the GC sponsoring company (A) using AC-21 rule.
My current employer (B) is planning to apply for labor in EB2 category.
The job requirements satisfy EB2 eligibility and I have the skills/qualifications for the EB2 category before I joined the current employer (B) (in fact even before joining the employer A).
Two questions:
1). Do you see any problem with the above scenario?
2). If you are not a lawyer, can you please suggest a good immigration lawyer that is very good at dealing with porting.
Thanks in advance.

1) Since I140 never required the PD to be current how can one explain the backlog on I140 applications? They used to premium process those it in one month.
2) If 180 days pass since the I485 receipt date but I140 is not yet approved can one use AC21 safely?
(I understand the risk of having the I140 denied and being out of status. But aside of that... )
My understanding that the H1B cannot be ported once you have I140 pending without having to redo your I140 and I485.
The lawyers that created those laws must have been on something ...
Thanks
Caution: You are taking Risk!
Based on Yates memo ( you can google for this), a person with pending I-140
and I-485 pending for more than 180 days can invoke AC21 provided I-140 is approvable at the time of using AC21. Approvable meaning, if they take up your 140 during AC21, it should be in a position to be approved without RFE's.
There was a link on Ron's site where he said
1> if you don't have to worry about ability 2 pay issue, meaning, your company is big
AND
2> you don't have to justify your qualifications for your EB category. Say, a three year degree and some diploma/certification for EB3 and four year degree and questionable experience for EB2 or a four year degree with diploma/cert that qualifies as masters...Especially Eb2 you have to be careful...Since most jobs doesnt require Eb2 but people apply thru that because they have masters or Bachelors plus five....Don't get me wrong on this...I've seen people in EB2 category doing QA testing. I agree, there are many EB2 that do advanced work....and not just software application development/management.
If the above two are good, the chances of RFE on I-140 is slim.
Even if there is one, your old company should co-operate...I believe that is where the risk is....

dear friends,
My cousin brother (15 yrs old) has been recently diagnosed with blood cancer. He is going under treatment at TATA memorial hospital in mumbai. I have posted this before in a different thread and thanks to all for giving me valuable information. The doctors gave him a good chance for recovery. He is going through several bone marrow treatments and regular blood transfusion. We need O+ blood. I would be grateful if anybody can give me some names of prospective donors or donor groups and their contact details in mumbai. Due to urgency of the matter I will keep this thread visible by bumping up occasionally. If you wish you can e-mail me the details at sounakc@gmail.com
warm regards

so, would you say just waiting for the RFE instead of sending in the exam result with a cover letter. i am afraid that it may get lost. on the other hand, if they delay the RFE by over 6 months, we will have to do the medical exam again. what would you suggest?

Thank you for your response.
I will appreciate if you could answer these 2 questions.
1- If 485 get denied, can I go to company-A and start working on approved H1B
2- Also, can I use approved 140 at company A (even 485 denied, since not working at A) to extend H1B for 3 years
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.

Here is my opinion:
I understand that your wife has now two I 94s: One when she entered on H4 (we will call it OLD) and one when she returned from Mexico with F1 visa stamp (we will call it NEW). And both are attached to her passport.
First of all, I dont think this is a major deal. You can do one of the two things:
1. First option is to go to near by international airport and meet CBP officer. Explain him the situation (show him the copy of air ticket to mexico and appointment letter with the consulate); chances are, he will take care of the old I 94 (but make sure to keep a copy for yourself for future reference). And you can forget about the whole thing (just keep copies of old I 94, air ticket, appt letter for future reference if any question arises at any time).
2. Second option is to nothing about this and just keep the old I94, a copy of it, copies of air ticket and appoinntment letter for your file and close the file until and unless you are asked about it. Chances are, they would have automatically changed the information in their system and you may never be asked about this old I 94. If they do, you can tell them the truth what happened. I dont think it is a major deal.
I would personally go with option 1 if the nearby international airport is not too far.
In either case, make sure of one thing: Whenever your wife leaves, she must surrender the new I 94 and not the old one. Best way is, take the old I 94 out of the passport so no confusion arises.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

Don't worry, the same thing happenned with my wife (labor approval lost in mail) and it took her 3 months for 140 approval. For me, everything was fine and it took 6 months for 140 approval - isn't USCIS the best part of the American experience?:mad:

485 filed 1 year back and have been working with the GC sponsoring employer since then ( on H1, did not use EAD).
Employer is not going to revoke approved I-140 even if i change Job/H1.
Now, can i use Advance Parole to travel while working for the new employer on a new H1?
Your inputs are highly appreciated.
Thanks,

If you are unmarried, then you GC parents can file an 1-130 petition for you right now. Once tthebecome a citizen, you can change the category F-1, and retain the priority date.

H1 with company (X) was denied on May 2008, but made appeal to it and its in the process.
during the same time
i have applied for H1 transfer to company (Y) through consular processing. I got approval.
If i go for Visa Stamping would it be a problem. Live around Ca. planning to go for Tijuana, Mexico.
also
Company (y) says it won't generate pay stubb unless u get visa stamped. Do i really need pay stubb(s) with
company(Y) in order to go for stamping.or its okay to go with company (X) paystubs.
My paystubs are still with company (x) till month of May 2008.
how good are chances of getting visa if im going for stamping in month of July, 2008
pls advice... what should i do in the situation i'm in
