Hi
My H1 is valid until 2010 Feb.
I am also having EAD till 2011 June.
I have been with my employer all along.... and prefer to stay with same employer till GC.
I DONT want to apply for my H1 extension since they are asking lot of questions like Contract details etc with RFE's.
My Q is - Can i use EAD with my EXISTING employer or EAD should be used for only NEW employer based on AC21?
If i use EAD with my current employer, should i have to inform uscis(any process involved)?
Please suggest...
Thanks for any suggestions

Dear Fellow Posters
After 12 months of toil I have finally completed the narrative and evidence that I need for an EB-1a (Extraordinary Alien) application. I ab about to complete the I-140 paperwork to go with it.
My questions is this - I have contacted a small number of Immigration attorneys who have quoted me approx $6000 for the whole process. How many of you value think that USCIS would look at my application more favourably if I used a reputed attorney rathen than putting in my own application and paperwork ?
Thanks in anticpation of your replies

Not sure what to say. But I believe in your original H1 petition requested dates of employment were only for one and a half month and I think you will get only that. Unless attorney files an amendment and documentation for additional 3 years. I dont think USCIS will even look at I-140 approval since it was not eve part of the packet
What is your attorney saying?

After the initial H-1B period maxes out, the beneficiary needs to move out of the US but not necessarily to the home country, for at least a year. Please read here (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=110aec897643f010VgnVCM1000000ecd190aRCR D&vgnextchannel=1847c9ee2f82b010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1 RCRD) for details.

I am on H1-B, and about to apply for I140.
My wife has recently got a F1 visa (and her H4 visa has been left valid).
I am applying for I140. Is it ok to mention her name on my I140 as my spouse?
Thanks in advance,
Ace

H1 extension can be applied upto 6 months before the expiry of current H1.
If you haven't completed 6 years on H1, you can always extend it as usual.
If you have completed 6 years on H1B, you have to have one of the following to extend your H1B.
1. Labor/Perm was applied at least 1 year back
In this case, your H1 will be extended another year
2. I-140 is approved.
In this case, your H1B will be extended 3 years.
More than likely your I-140 will be approved before November 2009 if it is a reasonably clean case. ( USCIS I-140 processing time has come down drastically)
BTW you don't get an H1 automatically on your 140 approval, your company has to apply for it.
Hope this helps.

The DREAM Act could come up for a cloture vote as early as this week, but faces tough opposition from Republicans -- including a few who, like McCain, previously supported the bill.
Some will likely vote against the DREAM Act citing timing. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) plans to bring up the bill for a cloture vote as early as Wednesday, but all 42 Republican senators have said they would filibuster any bills not related to tax cuts.
As the Senate struggles to come to agreement on the tax cuts and other issues, the DREAM Act could lose its few Republican supporters. Sen. Richard Lugar (R-Ind.), a co-sponsor of the DREAM Act, would vote against the bill if it came up this week, spokesman Mark Helmke said.
"You have to handle the spending bills, tax legislation and START first," Helmke said. "If we get those three things, he's willing to stay in and take up the DREAM Act."
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/12/06/mccain-shoots-down-dream-_n_792809.html
Others Republican senators oppose the bill on its substance, even those who supported previous iterations of the bill. McCain now supports increased border enforcement and argues the border should be secured before the Senate can take up immigration issues such as the DREAM Act. Buchanan, his spokeswoman, attributed McCain's change in position to the increase in drug cartel violence in Mexico near the United States border.
Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) was an original sponsor of the bill in 2001. Earlier in the year, he seemed supportive of the DREAM Act when he was asked about the bill at a town hall meeting.

My wife is currently on H-1B status. Her employer has decided to close the company and cancel her H-1B effective from 2/28/09. My wife has an EAD and Advance Parole. We applied for her EAD and Advance Parole, when my company applied for my I-485 Adjustment of Status in July 2007. I wanted to know:
a) What steps are needed to move my wife from H-1B to EAD?
b) Do I also need to move from H-1B to EAD in order for my wife to use EAD?
c) Do I need to move my wife to H-4 status before she can start using her EAD?
In short I wanted to inquire, how to ensure that she is still in legal status after her H-1B is cancelled by her employer?
She will be in legal status although her H1 is cancelled.
Reason - She has file I-485 with you, so technically she is in AOS(Adjustment of Status)
When she finds a new job she will give her EAD details in the I9 form.
You dont have to do anything. You can maintain your H1.
If you convert her status to H4 then she cannot use EAD - meaning she cannot work being on H4.
hope this clears your doubts.
Thanks,
Krishna

Hi,
Currently I am in US in H1B and my I-94 is expires in Sept 30 2010 and there is an extension filed for my H1.
In the mean time I want to file I-130 and I-485 based on my brothers citizenship.
Whether the status will change before sept 30 2010? Also if I leave US whether the application will be still valid and how much time it takes to get an approval for both?
Thank You,
Anil
Family 4th preference is retrogressed by a decade ( or two if you are from Philippines), so you may have to wait another 10 years to be eligible to file i-485.:confused:

With full due respect to the extremely hard IIT JEE and the brilliance of the students that make it to the IIT , the reason that only 3500 make it from over 150,000 is because of India's staggering population and staggering student numbers . The US has less than a third of US's population and hence Harvard accepts 10% . It is simple math.
I feel that just because a person could not crack a question in IIT JEE and gets rejected makes him any less smarter than the ones who make it given the small number of seats that used to be sometime back .
It is good that ye government has now opened a lot more IIT's and IIM's so that more people can get the privilege of going into these elite institutionalism , the ones who missed the Institution because they could not crack one question in the JEE .

But this time there are 90+ dems and Reps co-sponsored this bill..so chance of this getting passed is enormous and I was hoping since this is the child of those claiming to be the champions of the legal immigration ..could probably insert something to bring relief to the legal community..
Not sure though .. could not place hand on the text of this bill..

I want to keep this thread on top for a while to see how many People with priority date between Jan'05 and March 28th '05(Filed under RIR/NON-RIR) applied again in PERM. The reason is lot of Friends i know applied their labor again in PERM since the Old Labors filed under RIR were sent to BEC Center's in Phily and Dallas for 'cold storage' and forgot to port the dates after the old labor approval since the time regained was not big enough.
This gives us an fairly good idea to see how quickly the dates would move from Jan' 22nd '05 as many fear there might a huge figure here who applied between December '04 and March 28th '05 under the old process and before PERM kicked in .
Please do not forget to mention if you have ported the dates from your old labor.
Please contribute to this thread!!

i applied to another university and got my sevis transferred to do my MBA there.
i have done 11 months 20 days of full time CPT at the previous university(where i did my MS).
am i eligible for another full time CPT at my new university where i have started my MBA (from jan 21st 2008)?
the international students service at my previous university is saying "i am eligible for 12months of full time CPT for every educational level, and i cannot get another 12 months if i do MBA because it is a masters degree too".

Yesterday I booked a visa appointment at the Mumbai consulate and no where on any of the forms did I specify that I was from Maharashtra but the appointment letter that comes out at the very end says in bold "State of Residence: Maharashtra" which is wrong.
I also canceled the appointment and re-booked it with the same outcome.
Has anybody had this happen to their case? Just trying to gauge how concerned should I get about this. Everything else on the forms looks correct but this one little thing.
Thank you in advance. Please respond with your comments.

In G-325, there is one column for "Applicant's residence last five years".
For me, I have not submitted my current address by filing AR-11 form. This G-325 is asking my present address plus last addresses. So what should I do? Do I need to send them AR-11 form too?
You are thinking too much. Just give them past addresses. Do not make it complicate. They are just asking for record purposes. They may verify with credit bureaus if they want to investigate further.
