Here is my question:I live in NY and my attorney is located in CA.I got Interview with Immigration and I want to attend that interview along with my attorney.Is it possible to schedule my Interview in CA where my attorney works/lives? Or is it like we need to attend where USCIS specifies?
Share your experiances.
Note to Admin:Please make this thread sticky if you feel it is worth enough.

i have read some place in this forum that as long as you maintain your full time primary job you are entitled to use your ead for other smaller assignments without losing your H1 status. But then again I am not a lawyer just sharing what I have read.

I know. I have a company registered, we few friends decided to have a group kinda thing what you are planning now. I tried to promote that idea but some people got it wrong initially. See our previous discussion.
Anyways, my goal here is to make people understand that sending mails for AC21 are very important and critical at this stage irrespective or whether you used it or not.

Hello,
I'm outside US with AP (expiring in about a month). My GC has been approved this June.
My GC employer has run out of work. He is likely to get work later.
My options are:
a) Stay outside US and look for project. On getting confirmed work, enter US to join employer.
b) Enter US, look for project. On getting confirmed work, join employer.
Getting employed by GC sponsor employer with, either option could take few months.
While entering US, I will NOT have EVL(employment letter), only AP & I485 Approval Notice.
Which is safer option (a or b) for US entry ?
What questions can be asked at POE ? What should I say if asked about employer ?
Can GC be revoked at POE?
Which is safer option (a or b) for GC renewal, citizenship ?
Thanks.

Hi,
I am wondering if anybody had done this before: I want to work part time (20 hrs/week) for 6 months( and no other job). I am on H1 but I also have EAD. So I am wondering if there are any implications to this such as I need to amend my H1b , because of some obscure law my GC process will be affected. Any input is appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Nice stuff for first photos, especially since it looked like pretty harsh lighting. I particularly liked the guitar, though a little smaller aperture for a slightly more depth of field would have probably made it even better.

Have you tried this option before.
You can use existing visa + new approval notice. Make sure that on arrival the I-94 is stamped until expiration on new approval notice and not the visa expiration date.

Just want to share the info that i got from my immigration firm news letter
Under Section 265 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), all non-U.S. citizens who change their residential address are required to notify the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) within 10 days of the change. This applies to all adults and children (of any age) who are non-U.S. citizens, including U.S. green card holders.
A person who fails to notify the USCIS of a change of address within 10 days of the change is guilty of a misdemeanor under Section 266 of the INA. The penalty for failing to notify the government of the new address within 10 days is a fine of up to $200.00 or possible imprisonment for a period not to exceed 30 days, or both. However, the government has not enforced this section of the law that rigorously to date, and many notify the USCIS of their change of address well after the 10 day reporting period without an issue, but this could change. Since we have seen an increase in USCIS enforcement activities with respect to H-1B employers and H-1B workers, and since many H-1B employers place H-1B employees at client locations around the country for short-term assignments, it is very important that H-1B employees notify the USCIS each time they move within the 10 day reporting period.
In order to report a change of address to the USCIS you may download, complete, and mail a Form AR-11 or Form AR-11SR (Special Registrants Only) to the USCIS, or you may report your change of address, electronically, by visiting the USCIS web site (www.uscis.gov), and following the procedures provided by the USCIS

Government officials as well as immigration lawyers have been implicated in several recent corruption cases. Here are some of the cases that have made news in the last few days: USDOJ announced a ICE official was sentenced in a kickback scheme involving a confidential informant in an alien smuggling investigation. A former official at the US Consulate in Toronto was sentenced to a year in prison for a scheme where visas were expedited in exchange for gifts and trips with exotic dancers. A Utah lawyer stands accused of massive fraud in securing H-2B visas for ineligible workers. A Beverly Hills...

H1 Transfer and Extention
Posted Today at 04:06 PM by eucalyptus.mp
I am working in US from Feb 2007 to till date. I was on H1-B visa This H1-B petition is valid till 30 sep,2009. I am currently on project which ends on 31 March 2009 . Before that I want to change my employer .
Some ppl suggested me Transfer H1 with extention immediately. Some said that stay with current employer have extention and then transfer . Is there any problem now a days for H1 Transfers ?
Please give me your valuable suggestions.
Thanks...
For your new employer to be able to file for H1, you need all your documentation current. You can apply for a new H1 through your new employer using Premium processing and its not subject to 2009 quota. You can start working on your new project with the employer as soon as you get the receipt. You might get an RFE for H1 transfer as to the availability of the position and if that position is in a TARP funded company or industry then its going to be a pretty difficult task to get approval for ur H1.
Ideally stay with your current employer and see if you can work it out so that you get a new project through your employer only.
good luck
kris

OK. I give you the benefit of doubt. I gave 10 detailed replies on this subject.
but a search for 'skin test' gave me:
Search: Key Word(s): "skin, test" ; Forum: All other Green Card Issues and child forums
Showing results 1 to 6 of 6
Search took 0.03 seconds.
Doctor will keep x-ray. and write a report that there is no evidence of any active contagious TB infection now or in the past. Something like that. he will enclose it in the sealed cover.
Plus
advice to county to start INH regimen.
or
nothing. Go home nicely. As in my case.

Hi,
My H1 is expiring on 31st March. And my employer applied for I129 which is recieved on 3rd Feb.; in case I do not get approval from USICS before/on 31st March, CAN I stay in USA & work?
And my DL is also expiring on same day but DMV is not ready to issue new DL until I get new approval. How can I get DL if I do not get approval doc by 31st macrh.
Is there any chance I do not get H1 approval (even after 31st March)...
regards...

Once again, I urge people to take discussions of individual cases to Immigration Portal.
See our posting guidelines (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/announcement.php?f=2) visible above the forum threads.
"Please note that the purpose of our forums is to discuss our campaign and agenda. We want to foster a positive, constructive, discussion about our cause. Solutions for individual cases and problems, debates on the benefits of living in different countries etc. are better addressed on forums like Immigration Portal.
Posts that denigrate members, potential members or even anti-immigrant groups are not welcome - such posts are against Immigration Voice principles."
When my paperwork was transferred from CSC to TSC I posted on Immigration Portal not IV. We need IV forums to focus on activism.
best,
Berkeleybee

I'd be interested, are you planning to do local or DC offices?
I have met with staffers from offices of both MD senators a few times (in their DC offices) and I have been to the DC office of my local Congress woman.
Let me know when you are planning to go.

Guys I am posting this under General Information knowing that this is definitely not an immigration related question. So, please control your urge for giving negative reps. I have booked a wheelchair for my mom who cannot walk properly in Frankfurt airport during her transit of flights. Do they generally take them till the next flight gate? Also, there is only one hour time gap between these 2 flights? Will this be sufficient for them to take her to the next flight gate. Has anyone used this service for your parents and what are their experiences?
Thanks in advance.
btw, the airlines that she is travelling is lufthansa.
Go ahead - there is no problem at all. My parents traveled to Detroit from Bangalore via Frankfurt by Lufth. The had a nice experience - they were taken from one gate to the next by one of those battery operated carts. Everything went smoothly and they did not have to wait much at all (other than the wait during the layover time). Even at Detroit the service was really good - although the guy who got my parents to the exit asked me for tips (which I had ready - but was surprised that he asked for tips - this was the first time someone asked me for tips directly in the US).
