Hi,
My wife is currently on H1 (valid until Oct 2008). We just had a baby and I am thinking of transfering her to h4 (COS) for about 7-8 months. Once she feels comfortable she would like to start working again. In this case we would need h4 to h1b COS again.
Ques 1: Will h4-to-h1 transfer (while the h1 visa is still valid) be counted against a fresh quota or will this be just a COS application.
Ques 2: This is her first H1B which was valid for 3 years ( started in Oct 2005 - Oct 2008). Her company is about to file for renewal (for another 3 years - then her H1B maybe valid until Oct 2011). If she does COS to H4 now (June 2008) and if she plans to COS to H1 next year (Lets say March 2009), then will her new H1 application still be considered against the H1B cap ? The reason I ask is cos her H1B is currently valid until Oct 2008 and her company hasnt applied for renewal yet.
Ques 3: How much time does it takes to get the COS for h1-h4 and h4-h1 ?
Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks in advance...

Your receipt notice will show "receipt date" as July 3 - Oct 10 as Notice Date, thats when they entered your case into the system. If you end up with USCIS rep level 1, they say received date as Oct 10 as they don't have vicinity to Receipt Date. when I called to check the status of my AP, rep said, they receipted (noticed date) my case on 10/2 - it will take 3-6 months to get AP as TSC processing application entered on 7/17.
I got my receipt numbers by calling USCIS on Oct 12.

As far as I know you did not engage in any unauthorized employment since your school's office issued you CPT (Pre-graduation equivalent of OPT issued by USCIS post-graduation). Most F-1 students engage in CPT related internships so you are fine there.
For 1099-Misc, I am not 100% sure but my gut feeling is that you should be fine as long as you paid your due taxes. I know a few people who got 1099-Misc while in F-1 status (read Amway guys) but their total amounts on 1099-Misc were more in the range of below $100 as opposed to a few 1000s as I would imagine yours is.

Yes you can but at some point it is safer for you to have worked for at least some time with Company A. Please confirm with others.
Between, you just invoke AC21 automatically under the guidelines - there is nothing to "file" per se, unless you want to send out your new offer letter to USCIS along with other supporting documents.

I am a july 07 filer with EB2 PD Oct 2005. I switched employers in early part of this year. My employer has been very erratic and not paying me salary for past 2 months because his money is not cleared from his client. I have found another contract but my employer wants to wait until his money is cleared before he can pay me and that can take longer than 6 months !!! (if his money is not cleared before)
Under such circumstances I am jeopardising everything. I was wondering if I start working for my own company on a W2 with a same job profile same salary structure will USCIS consider this as something fraudulent or do they allow self employment under AC21 ? After I have my GC I plan to continue working for my own company. In that case what do I need to do from my side to make this happen ? I started my company in August 2008.

Question1) Is there anything like a H1Btransfer or is it a brand new application??
Yes, company B will need to file an H1 transfer
Question2) Does this H1B transfer go through the 65,000 quota system?? Is there a chance my H1B transfer can be rejected because I did not make it in the 65,000?
H1 B transfers are not counted against teh 65, 000 quota.
Question3) When can I start working for Company B?
Question4) Company B said that I should only inform Company A after I get a receipt from USCIS about my H1B transfer. If Company A matches up the salary what Company B is offering me after I inform them and I still havent started working with Company B, can I stay with Company A? If yes, What about the H1B transfer application by Company B?
You can start working with Company B once you get the receipt of filing. There is no need for you to join company B even after they have filed for your transfer. - you can continue to work with company A.

I remember reading if you travel outside the country while your AP is pending, it will be considered abandoned and you may not receive approval or any refund.
Check with your attorney
This is unfortunately a little incorrect advise. H1B is a dual intent visa, which means it can be held TOGETHER with your AOS or 485.
As long as you use your H1B to travel, you are fine.

no replies? cant believe i am the only one in this situation :)
please fix your profile, it helps others and helps you get right answers too given everything is context sensitive.
I did contemplate not filing for AP and keeping h1 and infact planned to get stamping; but after long thoughts i let it go. I figured not filing AP is not worth the risk.
IMO you should get AP and then travel, you sure can go for h1 stamping.

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.

Thanks,

As most of us know, Senator Specter and the Judiciary Committee passed a bill last night. All the pro-immigrant legislation remained in there (which is a good thing)
Senator Frist had threatened that he will bring his bill to the floor if the Senate Judiciary Committee does not do it. Since the bill passed the committee yesterday, most people assume that the Senate will debate Senator Specter's bill.
WRONG!
As per this news here http://www.boston.com/news/nation/washington/articles/2006/03/28/panel_acts_to_expand_immigrant_rights/?page=full
Despite yesterday's vote, Senate majority leader Bill Frist warned that he may substitute his bill, which only enforces borders, and ask the full Senate to vote on it instead of the far broader and more lenient measure approved yesterday by the judiciary committee.
In any event, a bruising battle on the Senate floor is expected this week. And even if the Senate approves the committee's bill, any measure that appears to provide ''amnesty" to those who are here illegally faces fierce opposition in the House, which in December passed a bill that would erect a fence along the Mexican border and make it a crime to provide social services to undocumented immigrants.
And while President Bush is a strong supporter of a guest worker program, he has signaled hesitancy to allowing undocumented immigrants to gain legal status.
Basically there is NO guarantee which bill comes to the floor. Please update this thread as you find more information about this

Another amazing day is about to dawn on us :)
I should clarify 2 items on the poll:
a) I have compressed 3 mini polls in one to get max info. So percentages wont make sense.
b) The post jan 15th 2005 is to know how many approvals did not have PD current. I see 4 people voting for it. I am not polling who is waiting with post jan 15 2005 PD.

H1B Immigrants are fighting with each other on websites and here antis are discussing this
First of all, is your profile legitimate? It shows your PD as Dec'07 / EB3/India and you are in 485 processing??????
anyway, as long as some fools doesn't admit the facts and realize the changing world, all those forums / blogs / hatred etc; will be just a waste of their time. ofcourse they have been wasting watching stupid games in TVs / Stadiums instead could use 'that' time to gain some new skills / learn new technologies that are required to survive in the job market.

Hi Experts,
My 140 was recently transferred from Nebraska to Texas after waiting 13 months. RD is March 2007. My company's lawyer contacted USCIS to open an SR as Texas is processing July/Aug 2007 applications and past my processing dates. USCIS refused to open an SR and advised that my application will be treated a new one and will be processed after the other application received in April 2008.
I think USCIS should honor the original RD when a case is transferred from one service center to the other.
I am shocked. I have already waited for 13 months and don't feel this is fair.
I am not sure what are my options are now? I am thinking to contact Ombudsman and local congress man.
Please advice.
