Folks. I am planning for India vacation this winter.
I have a quick question. Please let me know your opinions.
My H1B stamp expired a few yrs back. I have an approved I797 valid till April 2008. Can I travel on this AP and come back and be on H1B? Do I have to use EAD(once I come back from India) if I use AP?

I do not have knowledge of that you can convert your H1-B application to PP after you get a RFE. But as far as I know that if your application is pending you are safe, in the mean time why don't you find a new employer and transfer your H1-B to the new Enployer.

Anyone out here file around June 24 at TSC and got any news???????
Thx

Our cases are different - in my case both me and wife were primary and dependent on respective cases.
Did you file a derivative 485 for yourself based on your wife's application before it was approved?
I think your lawyer made a huge mistake of not filing a derivative 485 application for you beginning of September when her PD got current, this would have ensured you got tagged along with her application, mere letter to look at your case when your priority date (2001 eb3) is not current doesn't make any logical sense...
Keep the hope... on the bright side your PD is 2001. Best wishes and good luck!

:)Our check was cashed today 08/22
We paid with one check for: two I-485�s, and two EAD�s. In little space on the check where it says �for� I wrote fees. So, just want to let you know from my experience that, obviously, it does not matter if you paid with one check for all forms and applicants (in our case total was $1,150) or with separate checks for each application.
Our details:
PD � Aug., 2005
EB-3 ROW
I-485, EDA � reached TSC on Jul. 2nd
Check cashed � 08/22
Called Bank of America and got all 4 case numbers from the back of the check.
Checked INS website � applications were received on Aug. 21st and currently pending.
Receipts were mailed .
All applications were prepared and sent by lawyer, so I don�t know exact time when they reached INS or who signed for it.
Good luck everybody !

That is good idea to keep H1B status as much as possible. Use EAD when u have to use it.
Thanks
Thanks for the reply.
But consider the below scenarios.
- A person is on his 5th Year of H1 and his I-485 gets rejected - he can go back to H1 (Since he has 1 year left).
- A person has exhausted his 6 years (May be in his 7th year). Now his I-485 gets rejected - he cannot go back to H1 (Since he has exhausted his 6 years on H1).
Not sure if my understanding is right here

Received the following RFE on H1B Extension.
Thanks

Raj,
Sorry to hear about your lengthy RFE. I received a similar RFE but just asked contract documents between my company and client. I have 2 layers in between. My company, Prime Vendor and Client.
I've submitted POs showing the contract and a letter from Prime Vendor stating that I work on a project for Client.
Just responded to the RFE and keeping my fingers crossed.
Hope this helps...

I guess I did posted in general section. I did not noticed other news sections ...as you can see I am new here.
And if you just want positive posts ....thats good.
Then leave some negative thinking,
I dont have any other details other than ..what I have on my profile.
Friend, with all due respect; what the members requested was to post some information about yourself. are you a immigrant? do you have any application pending / approved etc.
This helps us identify with you as a group.
Thanks for bringing this visa abuse issue to our attention. Just as in any other trade, surely there are many abusers, however, this economy fueled itself to the top of the world in a lot of things using talents from around the world and that was mainly via the temporary work visas including H1b. Now you might meet 1 person in say 100000 who falls into the catagory you mentioned and none of us entertain such people with any respect.

My plan is making the following
Movie - A full length feature with characters that represent our life (includes H1 to GC process) in US with humor
Documentary - A professional documentary on our issues like H1 quota problems, GC backlog processing etc.
Any other thoughts from your side would help.
Suggestion: Let Corporate America handle H1B quota. They don't need our help. Tying up H1B with GC is only hurting us. We are in IV for GC issues.

Also, If they have really mentioned INS, I bet they don't even know what AOS or pending I-485 is, because agency INS is no longer there but your wife's international office officials mind is still stuck in 2002.
I need urgent advice from you. As you know my wife is on F1 visa and completed most of her credit hours needed by school. She has get only 1 credit hr to complete the course. However, that�s below 9 hr full time student status. She has been asked to register for additional 8 hrs..and pay tuition fee accordingly ( > 8K). Which I think is unreasonable. They told her that if she doesn�t register by tomorrow they have to report it to INS. She told them that she has EAD..there answer doesn�t matter in order to remain in school and F1 visa she has to register.
My questions is:
1) Can she continue working on her Thesis on her EAD and AP ?
2) What will happen to her f1 if she use EAD
In response to these questions my Lawyer said
1.) yes, she can continue to be a student as an adjustment applicant � she can work using the EAD and travel using the AP.
2) she is basically no longer an F-1 because she has demonstrated immigrant intent by filing the adjustment. Which is fine � she has valid legal status as an adjustment applicant and can work with the EAD and travel with the AP.
What do pro�s think..:)

Background : EB2 India PERM applied in Oct'08.PERM RFE Audit notice received on Apr '09 and replied immediately by the lawyer. Currently as per iCert labor website Audit cases being processed as of 07/31/2010 are PD July 2008. My H1B six year completes on Jan 2012.
Question :
- When do I realistically expect any decision on my PERM audit?
- Should I apply for fresh PERM Labor in order to meet the 365 days prior labor applied rule for H1 extensions or should I wait for the audit to be decided? My spouse has EB2-I PD OCT '07 with 140 approved ..waiting to file 485.
- In case I decide to wait,what will be my status if the pending PERM currently under audit filed gets denied? What are my options for further H1 extensions in that situation?
- If advised,when should I plan to file my fresh PERM labor? Given that a RIF took place at my employer at end of May 2010, per my understanding there is a six month wait period after RIF to file for PERM labor. Hence, can I file PERM earliest by the end of Nov, 2010.Am I correct? Will I meet Jan 2011 deadline o file fresh PERM?
-What are your overall suggestions in my case?
Thanks for your help!

The GOP "Pledge": What's Not In It | Mother Jones (http://motherjones.com/mojo/2010/09/gop-pledge-whats-not-it)
The House Republicans on Thursday released a manifesto outlining what they intend to do should they triumph in the coming congressional elections. The glossy document, which is adorned with photographs of the Statue of Liberty, Mt. Rushmore, and cowboys, is high-mindedly titled "A Pledge to America: A New Governing Agenda Built on the Priorities of Our Nation, the Principles We Stand For & America's Founding Values." And it offers few surprises: tax cuts for all (including the super-rich), slashing federal spending (without specifying actual targets), downsizing government, more money for the military (especially missile defense), and repealing the health care bill.
You can read it yourself. Or peruse the reviews:......But here's a short-cut for you. Below is a list of words and phrases and the number of times they are each mentioned in the 45-page "Pledge."

labor sub is not neccessarily always bad.
I have seen lot of folks who were stuck in a bad wait and only way could leave was to use labor sub.
Having said that, this case seems just bad situation..
Why couldn't he just check before he filed I140 if someone else has already used that labor?
It's easy to do...
Also why not just use I140 premium when it was allowed back then..
I am thinking someone got greedy and got conned while trying to con immigration system..
you play with fire .. sometimes fingers get burnt.. I feel pity for this guy but I got no love for him..
how do u check if a 485 isn't being filed based on I 140

I got this RFE more than an year back. The birth certificate that I had provided did not have my name and just said "male child". So I had to provide the following secondary information-
1) An affidavit from my grand parents. Two different ones saying that they were present at the time of my birth.
2) Affidavit from the Doctor that he was the person who performed the operation.
3) Government issued Ids like driving license showing complete name with a picture.
Hope this information helps.

2000-2002 was worst. Who didnt do job search during that time have no idea how it felt like.
I just came out of school then and it felt like sky is falling on me. Becoming desparate to survive, i went to work in a gas station. The lady owner didnt pay me after i worked for a week saying i am not concentrating enough. Then out of no where i found a technology job that paid 17$ per hour to keep me going and they did my H1 a year later in 2002. It just made me more strong i guess. But, it is a hell of an experience. Most of my freinds went for second masters or PHD to Keep the status.
I've got to agree with you. I was just getting out of college that time as well. I had a job at Best Buy, and trying to find my first break, and all my senoirs were getting laid off. I finally got an internship at a startup company for $2000 a month, and ever since then the market has been doing good. I really hope it will never come to the way it was back then. But as of now things are doing quite well, there is stilll a lot of hiring going on.
