Hi All,
Please help me on this. Here is the situation:
1. Company A First time H1B - Oct 1, 2004
2. Company B transfer - Jan 22, 2006
3. My current visa is expiring on Jan 22, 2009, but after Jan 22, 2009, I still have till Oct 1, 2010 to complete my 6 years of H1B.
4. Now, my wife who is on H-4 is currently in India on vacation, since she is not in US, her H-4 extension cannot be filed.
My question is, can I file my H-1 extension and go to India and get both of our visas stamped based on my extension? Or does my wife need to come back on her currently valid visa and file for her own H-4 extension?
Please advise and pardon me for my ignorance on this.
Thanks in advance,
DSP
>> can I file my H-1 extension and go to India and get both of our visas stamped based on my extension?
Yes. She can get H4 visa stamp based on your H1 extension approval notice.

Hi
I completed my 6th year H1B in April 2010 and am currently on a 7th year extension based on a pending PERM application with my current employer.
I am currently considering taking an offer from a new employer who is willing to process my H1b transfer and my question is:
1) Is it possible to transfer a 7th year extension to a new employer given that PERM will still be pending?
2) If yes, will I need to give them any evidence regarding the pending PERM as I don't have any document on it except the receipt number from DOL.
3) My current H1b expiration date is in April 2011. If the new employer files for an H1b transfer in July 2010, will I get the same H1b expiration date or a new one (i.e. July 2011)?
This is important in my case because my wife who is currently a LPR will be eligible to become a US Citizen in June 2011 and I will likely not need to go through the PERM process.
Any advice on the above will help a lot.
Thank you!!!!!

The scanned the bar code on the fingerprinting notice and asked to verify the A#, dob etc. that popped up on the computer screen. I think the receipt number was there too.
Does any one remember if at the time of finger printing for 485, did they enter the Receipt Number, A# or both in their computer.
I am have some issues with multiple A#s and I need this information.
Please reply only if you are sure.

Hi,
I have recently recieved approval for I-140. With no surprise, employer denies to share the copy. I am planning to file FOIA to get the copy. Questions I have :
1. Can I file for FOIA even if my I-485 is not filed?
2. Reason to ask 1. is, Form G-639 requires Alien Registration Number (A#) which I believe, one can get only after filing I-485. Please correct me if I am wrong.
3. If I am right, Can I file FOIA without Alien#?
Thanks a lot in advance and appreciate the response.

Dear Attorneys, fellow forum members:
My situation is as follows:
I am currently working for a 3rd party Indian consulting firm (Company A). They are in possession of my H-1B visa. I came out of a project on January 29th (2 weeks back). My new project starts on Feb 25th. As I am paid on an hourly basis, I am not paid while I am on bench. As a result I don't have a pay stub for a period of 3 weeks.
Will this be a big problem in the future in terms of Green card processing?
The next question is:
In the time I have been on bench, I was interviewing with other companies as well and now I have a direct full time job offer from Company B (not through any consultant). This is an ideal situation in my opinion as my visa is held directly held with the employer under whom I work. Company B has started the process of filing for my H-1B transfer. It says it will take 8 to 10 days for the transfer to complete. Is this true? Also, can I start working for Company B before my visa is transferred or should I wait for the transfer to complete and keep working on the new project I have with Company A in the meantime (see above)?
I appreciate your help and feedback in this regard, as I don't know much about the legal process.
Thank you!

This has been discussed before!
Moving to EAD is irreversible. You can't come back to H1b without applying for new H1.
The way USCIS knows that is you will show paycheck without valid H1.
This has been discussed before in many threads in details.. do the search.
I am planning to work on EAD soon and switch my employer using AC21. How would USCIS know that I have switched from H1b to EAD. I might change my mind after 1 months and get back to H1 transfer and work on H1 instead on EAD.
This depends on if the future project is long term and I switch to H1B just to be safe.
Any ideas would be appreciated...

PD isn't current, but just check i-485 online status, showing "Document production or Oath Ceremony" (i.e., the last cycle).
There was indeed a soft LUD in June this year. After that nothing much else. Is there sth good coming along my way?
Appreciate if anyone here can share his/her thoughts/comments.
Don't rely on online status, take infopass and check it out. BTW, it is most likely a FP notice, not an approval.

I agree with Kanshul. You don't need AP just to remain in the US, however I strongly recommend getting it even if you don't plan to travel. You will need it if there is an emergency and it is difficult to get at short notice. There are many messages on this board from people who had to travel unexpectedly before AP was approved and wonder if they can return to the US.

Hello Folks:
This long wait for Green Card has made me think about a number of things...
A few days back a couple of my friends have recieved notices from USCIS are sending notices 'Intent to Deny their I-485' w/o any rhyme or reason. Employer says they have not withdrawn their I-140. They said they will appeal but if nothing happens they will go back to India.
Just worried...if this happens to me and I am forced to go out of the country in 30 days, what happens to my US loans. I do not think I would be able to repay back my home & car loans with an Indian salary if I return. In this market I can only sell at a huge loss. I also used US Line of credit for education purposes. Do I need to file bankruptcy? I am on a EAD right now...
Any thoughts on this... greatly appreciate ....it

Yes. The key is that the entity remains the same. And same EIN is a proof for that. One company can have multiple valid DBAs at the same period of time (just like name aliases).
Still it is better to check with an attorney whether a "successor of interest" petition is needed, especially if the old DBA is invalidated.
Hi, Thanks for replying. Just verifying - is the tax number the same as employer identification number (EIN)?

I played around with this a bit, and found the solution. The problem occurred when I had "Empty Project." I created a new project "Console Application," and then I was able to "load" the Process class/namespace. Can anyone explain to me why this would happen? I did a few searches online, but didn't find much help...

Hi All,
I hold different administrative and accounting responsibilities in my company. My company can't sponsor me as an accountant, because I don't have too much experience.
Are there any other occupation which can fit my responsibilities to get an H1B visa?
Thank you for your help.

Hi,
Can anyone tell me if its ok to mail my EAD & AP and spouse's EAD & AP renewals to be mailed in the same package to Texas? I can't find any posts regarding this.
The PO Box address for EAD is different from AP. But i think for non USPS carriers, there is only one address for Texas center (4141 N augustine rd).
So If I use this address can I mail all the 4 applications in the same package?
I am not trying to save money but feel that keeping all the apps together might help especially primary and secondary applicants...
Thanks.
My lawyer said we can use the same non PO Box address mentioned in the EAD to send the AP documents as well. According to the lawyer you can send it all in one big envelope and demarcate the I-131 vs the I-765 or do it like I am, in 2 seperate smaller envelopes and then I am going to put the 2 envelopes in the same fedex package and mail it out.

during the period from July 2009 to November 2009, your extension was pending and not rejected/denied by USCIS and also your sponsoring employer did not revoke the application. so, logically it should be authorized employment. you can work with the receipt itself, if nothing is decided about the application.
but, better talk to ur lawyer. since there is gray area for ignorant IO @ POE to misinterpret, better have your lawyer available on call during the time of your entry to explain to IO.
