Hello All,
I am on 7th year of my H1 and my I-140 is pending. Since my current H1 is about to expire, I need to file for my 8th year of H1 extension. Do you think there could be some problem in getting my 8th year extension since my labor is approved and I-140 is pending. The way I interpreted the extension rule is that you can only get the extension if your labor is pending for more than 1 year but in my case my labor is approved and I-140 is pending.And I cannot wait for I-140 approval since my current H1 is about to expire.
Please advise.
Thanks
No ..There would be no problem...
In fact tell the lawyer to attach the 140 application receipt to the H1 extension and ask for a 3 year extension..at least 1 year they got to give...

One more new option. As a successful business person, why not go for the investor visa EB5?
By the way what kind of business is it? Sorry...I guess its none of my business...or I should mind my own business instead of giving lame suggestions.
Hi, this is my situation:
- I have L2 Visa, because my husband has L1B Visa. This year, the visa expires and we have 3 new options: extension for L1 and L2 Visa, H1 and H4Visa or Green Card.
- In the other hand, I have my own business. I have and EAD (work permit) and SSN.
Questions:
1. Which of the 3 options do you recommend us to get? Why?
2. I understand that under H4, I am not able to get a work permit. Do I need a work permit to continue doing business by myself? Or it is required even to run my business?
Thanks

Hi Everyone,
Here is the scenario:
Category: EB3-INDIA
PD: APRIL 2004:
140: Approved.
485 filed on July 2nd, 2007 (of course, still pending)
Changed Employer after invoking AC21 (without sending any documentation to USCIS)
There is possibility that my new employer (where I am working on EAD) may get ready to file gc for me in EB2.
Now, here are my question:
1) Since my EB3 485 is pending, is it possible for another employer to file under EB2? Is this the process which is called Inter-filing? Has anyone done that?
2) At what stage previous EB3 PD can be used ? At the time of 140 filing, 140 approval or new 485 filing?
3) What if new EB2 I40 gets rejected? Does it have any impact on old EB3 approved 140 and pending 485?
4) Does the scenario look too risky?
5) Any one in the same boat?
Thanks in advance.
dont file a second 485. Wait for teh second I-140 to be approved, then just interfile this into the old one. Did you already request your older PD when you filed this new I-140? Thats the stage where you typically request teh older PD, though you can also do it when you request to interfile.
New I-140 getting rejected should not have an impact on the old EB3-I-140 as long as the denial is not something that can be a reason for denial of the older one. So if this is denied due to ability-to-pay, or not qualifying for EB2, you are still ok as long as you had qualified properly for that older one. In many cases USCIS has gone back and looked at teh first I-140 when a new one is denied, to see if the older one also has the same problem.

First, get a new attorney and have him file G-28 for your 485, that way you'll control your 485, and also start the job hunt.
I lost my job.My 140 is approved and I 485 is over 180 days.I have 2 yr EAD .I was laid off on 6 th April and I see LUD on I-485 on 9 april.I am so much worried that I may get RFE.
What are my option if I get RFE on Employment before getting new job.How can I get my RFE from company lawyer becase Lawyer address is on my 485 Receipt.

Once again Thanks, Bestin.
I am married long enough and I do not want to get into marriage again with a GORI ladki. Once bitten twice shy :rolleyes:. Enough is enough.
I spoke to my manager who had agreed to do the needful. However, he had put another spoke now by writing in the approval email that it is my responsibility to keep the EAD current.
I do not understand this part- I am working on H1-B, why should I keep my EAD current, by paying my own fees?

I am derivative beneficiary and have a EAD card through my spouse who is also on H1B. I am currently on H1B and my own I-140 has an RFE.
I am getting an opportunity to venture into an non-IT business.
Can I start my own S-Corp or LLC using EAD and also continue working on H1B with my current employer? What will be status - H1B or Parolee(EAD)
Will I loose my H1B status as soon as I use EAD?
I would like to play safe and rather pass on this business opportunity to my current employer and remain on his H1B too keep my H1B status if it is safer.
Please advise.

I have a old EB3 PD Sept 2003 with Company A , and a new EB2 and I140 approved from Company B.
Can I ask my old company to file for I140 so that I may use the Old PD.
How can I bear the expenses of the USCIS and attorney's fees, given I am not working at company A.
Any clues would help.
I guess the old labor will be invalid by now as it has been already been over 45 after approval.
Ask a lawyer, because due to this labor substitution rule now you might have a problem. (" A GOOD LAWYER IS A SOLUTION HERE")
What do you mean by how can you bear the expenses. What a ?
Do what your company A is asking. I don't think that company A would file it for free.
Give it out of your pocket, that is how you bear it, work at a gas station, 7 eleven if you have to make more money to give him

What was the cause for H1B rejection??
My H-1 B was not rejected, just application got returned back to the lawyer because some form was missing in it. They had refiled it back.
I donot know any other details, as lawyer did not share it with me..

So the USCIS article asks you to select Nebraska or Texas based on where you live.
Another place I read that it is based on location of permanent employment.
For me my employer is based at NJ and I work for a client in CA.
They have sent my 485 to Texas. Does this look Ok.

i am going to do almost exactly what you are thinking in a matter of few days. i spoke to two lawyers. essentially, ac21 allows this and there is nothing that you have to really do. Of course, i am assuming that you are moving into a job that has the similar job duties as specified in your labor application. what you need to do is make 100% sure that you have documentation to prove this job duties similarity. if you are going to get an SOW from your client, make sure that the SOW is similar to your labor. if you can, do get a letter from your client (where you will do your actual work) stating your job responsibilities, work content etc. you will also need to document/prove actual existence of your business by showing your tax transactions, invoices/receipts etc. also, make sure that you are spending 40 hours (or whatever is the equivalent of a full time job) doing your labor certified job... all this will be required only if USCIS sends you an RFE or calls you for an interview.
wish you luck
I am working for a Fortune 500 company on H1 visa. I am switching to a startup and will now be using my EAD( GC status: I-485 with more than 180 days). I have the following questions.
1. Can I join as an individual contractor by myself directly with the company without going thru a 3rd party vendor?
2. I am offered a temporary contract position at an hourly rate every 15 days without deducting any taxes. I will have to pay my taxes at the end of the year by myself using the form sent by the employer. Does anyone have any such experience?
3. What formalities do I need to complete with the USCIS regarding this change in my status? Will it affect my green card process in any way?
I will really appreciate your help.
Thanks for the support.

That is one option but given that I am not on H1 and nor with the same employer - it may not be the way to go. This is something I am going to look into and have an attorney weigh in on. Thanks!
Since her H4 is tied to your being in status and not to which employer you are working for (she is your dependent) I would say she can safely travel on H4. I would recommend that she carry photocopies or originals of your 485 receipts, a photocopy of your passport with I94 (showing you are in the US) and a copy of your EAD card to show your status. I have never heard of dependents getting denied entry as long as they have a valid visa and can show that their spouse is in status. A change of status within the US is not considered as an impediment to your dependents who may travel on a dependent visa category that was last issued to the principal applicant.
My 50 cents (2 cents with inflation added in) Do let us know how this thing ultimately resolves.

Mine also moved from NSC to TSC in July 2009. I applied I-485 from CA and moved to OH in 2008. But still OH and CA falls under NSC.
The reason for the transfer might be my I-140 was filed in TSC.

This is not an AD moron. I am not looking to hire anyone. I am asking about NON-IMMIGRANT VISA advice. Since the forum is titled Immigration Voice > Immigration Information > NON-IMMIGRANT VISAS, I don't think my post can be THAT far from the right section.
WTFever,
This forum is intended for Highly Skilled Immigrants who are on Non Immigrant visa and are caught in the green card log jam. Discussion topics here are predominantly related to Employment based GC.

I just realized that I didn't explain what HDR is- The idea is to take a series of more or less 10 photos with different shuttle speeds and then composite them into one unique image that will capture all the light effect due of the high range of the natural light.
I know what HDR is, but your original question now doesn't seem to make any sense in light of what you just said now.
With that said, HDR works best with enough photos (no specific number necessary) to have well exposed highlights and shadows (start by underexposing your highlights and keep going up in exposure until your shadows are almost overexposed). From what I've read, the HDR plugin prefers the images to be separated by one stop, so on my camera that means three clicks over on the rear command dial if I'm set for 1/3rd stop increments. Setting your camera to 1/2 stop increments (maybe that's all the D100 can do, I can't remember) will let you get from one end of the scale to the other more quickly.

Friends .. Please reply/suggest as its very urgent to take decision. Thanks!!
Hi,
I applied I-140 using substituted labor(13th July 2007, receipt no yet to come) on future employment basis ..
Since, USCIS has allowed filing for I-485, I wanted to file my I485, with my future employer but he is not ready to file I485 until I come to his payroll.
I need your valuable suggestions to make my decision, my questions are:
1. If I want to join on his payroll, I have to leave my existing company/Client, so that I485 can be filed ... Should I agree for this? what's your opinion???
2.How safe do you think, idea of leaving my current established long term client and finding new client through him , for filing i485 purpose ?
3. Also, I am not sure about how/when my labor substitution will be approved? And in worst case, if it gets rejected, where I am going to be( I completed 3.5 years on my H1 visa which means I have 2.5 years remaining in my 6 year)???
5.What are the benefits (and in what timeframe) I can expect if I decide to file I485 now ?
Many Thanks in Advance!!

Hi,
I got the standard RFE
1) End date in client letter
2) EE relationship
3) show project validity till h extension requested( 3 years)
RFE response to be received on or before July 10 2010
With all problems from vendor and client i was able to get letters but my lawyer sent the packet on July 9 and when I was tracking the status it says that UPS due to some unforeseen reason will now deliver this packet on 7/12 ..2 days after deadline, the packet has sent date 7/9 and was marked next day AIR
My question is
) Am I screwed in this case and my H1 is gone. current H1 period expires 07/15
2) Or will USCIS will accept the respnse since it was posted before on 7/9
I am so mad at my lawyer but looks like H1 is gone and I have to pack my belongings ...
any advice please
I think, you can still work on H1 even though your current extension is pending
