Hey new to kirupa saw the stamp thing figured id throw something up here. not sure if it meets the guidlines or not but ill leave that for you to decide. later.

I live in NJ and my application was recieved on July 2nd. would that be Nebraska or Texas SC?

NJ comes under TSC but direct filing took effect only from July 30th. Till then the 485 was supposed to be sent to the center where 140 is filed or to NSC ( if no 140 filed). Even if it was sent to the wrong center USCIS will not reject the application in this timeframe. It will be internally transferred to the the correct service center.

Based on your approved I-140 if you are eligible to file 485 or get EAD then he can also get EAD.

But using only approved I-140 , then only the beneficiary can get extended.

As a H1B holder, can I start a new company and volunteer for it while I am holding a full-time job for the company that sponsors me the visa? I am expecting the new company to gain a profit, of course.:)

Individuals who apply for a non-immigrant visa must be admissible to enter the United States. Inadmissible grounds to deny entry into the U.S. include, but not limited to the following:



Communicable disease;
Criminal record involving crimes of moral turpitude;
Possession of or trafficking in a controlled substance;
Trafficking persons;
Involved in money laundering;
Previously removed (deported) or previously overstayed a period of admission to the U.S.

If a non-immigrant visa holder subsequently becomes inadmissible and thus ineligible to enter the United States, depending on the inadmissibility ground, the visa holder may apply in advance of travel for a temporary waiver of inadmissibility. The waiver application is applied directly to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) prior to travel. Along with the signed Form I-192, Application for Advance Permission to Enter as Nonimmigrant, the applicant must submit the filing fee of $545, an official police record from country of nationality, proof of citizenship, and supporting documentation regarding the inadmissibility showing rehabilitation and character reformation. For questions concerning eligibility of the temporary waiver application, or any other area of immigration, call Kraft & Associates at 214-999-9999.

This law only applies to H1-B filing fees paid to USCIS. Your employer is still legally allowed to collect any attorney fees for filing your petition from you.

Good one. Go IV go.

Many folks who are in h1b their spouses in h4 will be aware that they will not receive any stimulus package and they would not have received in 2008. Becuase the spouse cannot get SSN and without SSN no stimulus package even for the h1 holder.

Now 2009 another stimulus package is going to come, can folks in the same boat join together and can we do something , bring some awareness of this issue , so that we are atleast eligible for stimulus package.

Details about 2009 stimulus package.

We are not getting Green card, atleast give us stimulus package relief.

I am a physician with subspeciality board certification. I have been in AOS/EAD since July 2008 as a dependent on my wifes EB3 Employment based petition.
Due to current retrogression, I want to explore the EB1 route. The question I have is can I apply for a new EB1/AOS in view of my current status of being in AOS/EAD already.
Yes, you can. This will be an independent petition, and will have no effect on the existing I-485 (at least, in principle - the USCIS may get confused if they see two petitions, and issue RFE, denial, etc., in which case you need to reply back to them with proper evidence, etc.).

What impact will it have on my wife if I choose to add her as dependent.

Your wife can be a dependent on your EB1 petition and file another I-485 based on your EB1 I-140. Again, this is independent of her own petition I-140 (and the I-485 based on the EB3 I-140), and in theory, the two petitions should not interfere with each other.

Hi All,
I received I485 receipts from my lawyer, they are missing my priority date which is in sept 2002. Not sure why they are missing..
Did any one come across the same situation....

what does it mean

You will apply when your number is current on the visa bulletin.
your interview will be scheduled in the 2011 fiscal yr which starts in october.
you can adjust the status in the u.s but be careful with this as the backlog can make it a long wait or you can go home or to the country of last foreign residence and get it done the same day.
any extra questions, send me a private note - i am very familiar with this process.
in the meantime, start collecting your documents for the interview as instructed in the package you will have received.

My I-485 is pending and priority date is OCT 2006. We have EAD which expires in DEC 2010. I also have H1B visa which expires on JUN 2010 (After 3 years of extension after I-140 approval.) My question is:

1. Is it worth having H1B visa extended just in-case? Will extending H1B visa cause any problems with pending I-485?

I appriciate yr help.

Thanks
Jig.

What is your Lawyer's reply to the mess he created?

Check with your international students office. In our time, they needed to sign the I-20 before you/your wife can leave the country. I also think she needs a separate I-20 with a F2 endorsement. She should not just carry your I-20 with her name in it, then you are supposed travel with her. Again, these were the old rules and I am not an attorney and this is not a legal advise, just from my personal experience.

& who r u..... publicist for anti immigrants...... y r u doing ads for anti immigrants.....
what makes you think that i am an anti-immigrant, and do you think that i am giving publicity. this is from an ad that i came across that says that 1.5 million immigrants are being brought into the country to work annually. i wanted to bring this to the attention of the forum so that we can do something to stop this false information propagation. otherwise, think about the hatred the american public will have when the time comes for CIR to be implemented. for every call we make, there will be 10 calls to oppose. unless we stand up and fight the misinformation, we are not going to see any progress. and maybe it is easy for you to label anyone as an anti-immigrant being an EB2. I lost out on my 2001 PD due to the mistake of my lawyer and am now saddled with a 2004 PD. Easy for you to talk, when you dont know the issues that those of us who are languishing for more than 10 years here are going through.
