i do not think its any issue.go for it ..:mad::p:D

Why do we need a transit visa if we are just passing by the airport( I know UK has this rule). Can someone please share if we really need the transit visa. I am travelling on next week to Chennai via Frankfurt.

If you have a valid (unexpired) US visa and traveling, to OR from US, to any country via Germany, then you DON'T need a transit Visa.

If you are traveling on AP, you need transit visa via Germany.

Quote from the German Mission web site:

Nationals of the following countries are required to be in possession of an airport transit visa when passing through the international transit area of airports in Germany:

AFGHANISTAN, BANGLADESH, DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO, ERITREA, ETHIOPIA, GHANA, INDIA, IRAN, IRAQ, JORDAN ** (please see below), LEBANON, MYANMAR, NIGERIA, PAKISTAN, SOMALIA, SRI LANKA, SUDAN, SYRIA, TURKEY

Exceptions: Nationals from the above list are entitled to transit through the international transit zones without an airport transit visa:

1. If they hold a valid visa for the United States of America
2. If they return from the USA after having used the visa
3. If they hold one of the following residence permits:

* Form I-551 permanent resident card (valid for 2 to 10 years),
* Form I-551 Alien registration receipt card (valid for 2 to 10 years),
* Form I-551 Alien registration receipt card (no expiry date),
* Form I-327 Re-entry document (valid for two years — issued to holders of a I-551),
* Resident alien card (valid for 2 or 10 years or no expiry date. This document guarantees the holder’s return only if his stay outside the USA has not exceeded one year),
* Permit to re-enter (valid for two years. This document guarantees the holder’s return only if his stay outside the USA has not exceeded two years),
* Valid temporary residence stamp in a valid passport (valid for one year from the date of issue).

Doing MBA is useless ... unless you do it from a top 20 school

idli_vada.. we have enough issues with our GC processings... get the hell out here

what line?????? this is a standard bullshit line the disingenuous & dishonest leadership of aila has used time and time again..... this is what they say ..... everytime things appear to stall in the congress .... these con artist start saying that ...... highly skilled employment based green cards are suffering..... america is suffering & losing..... so pass the bill for the UNDOCUMENTED...... otherwise innovation will suffer..... it doesn't even make sense .... its total bullshit...... the job of lawyers is to lie..... but did someone say that joseph goebbels is now in the leadership of aila...... because this sounds to more like someone saying ...... if you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it

aila has repeatedly blocked bills & provisions for employment based green cards...... aila has spent all its energy to make its members millionaires i.e. immigration lawyers.....if 12 million undocumented process paper work using 9000 immigration lawyers.... each immigration lawyer will get on average of over 1000 new customers....... so every time things stall in congress.... aila leadership comes up with this bullshit..... but actually this aila leadership is not at all sympathetic to employment based green cards....... its sympatheic to the pockets of their members i.e. immigration lawyers...... i hate immigration lawyers....... i hate aila because they are disingenuous & dishonest to the issue......

Dear Attornies,experts

My perm was denied recently because "The wage listed in the SWA job order is less than the wage offered to the foreign worker", It took DOL almost one and half years to determine this after a business necessity audit. I am going to start a new application now. What are my chances for an appeal by providing corrected supporting documents, can I apply a new application while an appeal is in progress..

Can I have multiple PERM applications from multiple employers at the same time, with different position titles?

Is there anyway of taking advantage of the old priority date application that was denied with a new application.

I almost lost 2 years in priority date because of this denial...

Please suggest...

sorry mine has not cleared I wrongly clicked. Please discard that vote. I apologize for this.

You think its that easy to swing it our way with DEMS in power.....aint happenning.

Reminder: Those living in highrise apartments or large apartment complex should put up the names of their family members on the mail box such that the green card mails are not returned to the USCIS. Under the current USCIS policy, the U.S. Postal Services are not permitted to deliver the USCIS enevelope with "Return Requested" red stamp other than the specific individual named on the envelope. This is particularly true with the green card delivery.

You cannot use your Priority date if it is denied.

If I don't receive a response from USCIS before Jan 15, can I work till I get the notice ? or my employer is required to terminate my employment on Jan 15 according to the recapture time as mentioned on application ?


Your employer should terminate you from the job on Jan 15, as you will not be authorized to work after that.

I would like to apply for B2 transfer so I can stay for 2 months and travel around US. I also own car, house, and a ton of personal belongings etc. My house is under water (I mean I have $390K loan left on the house which is probably worth $250K). I might have to take it into foreclosure and eventually file for Bankruptcy and the process might take anywhere between 3 months to 18 months in present situation. I plan to leave US with in 2 months as I want to complete the mandatory 1-year outside before I could be eligible for new H1 visa but I might have to come back multiple to US for legal purposes during foreclosure or bankruptcy. Can I request a long term B2 visa (like 2 or 5 year) ?


COS will get you max of 6 months of B2 - If you apply B2 at consulate in your home country, you *may* have a chance of getting multiple year/entry B2 visa.


If my employer does terminate my job on Jan 15 2010, how early should I file for B2 transfer ?


Make sure COS application reaches them before Jan 15th.


If my employer say that I can legally work till I get notice from USCIS, when should I file for B2 transfer ?


Dont work beyond the date requested in your H1B extension.


what are the typical costs of filing for H1b to B2 transfer ? (application fees, attorney fees etc.)

Minimum of 1K attorney fees....

There's actually two more

You dont have to discuss all of these...but if there is any good thoughts/ideas you could extract from the above threads , that would be good enough.

My collegues have travelled via Germany with exipred visa(they had valid I94s too). and I heard that only via Germany transit visa is not necessary. But if you travel through France, transit visa is necessary.

I have decided to go for the SB-600 rather than the 800 because I don't think I need the extra functions at this point. It will save on $$$ and weight too.
Thanks,

I had my h1 extension from 2009 and I went to Kolkata for stamping in Jan2011..surprised to see there was a desi VO(may be US citizen). he interviewed me and it was smooth, he asked about the company and looked in my past tax returns and approved for visa. He did not even asked about client letter or any agreement. I worked in anther country for 4 yrs that he asked and confirmed though.
I work for a small consulting company, this was my 2nd extension.
Hope this helps

Contact them for what?

With all due respect, applying a bit of economics to politics/immigration might work out but folks in politics are not gonna let any one wipe away immigration/politics with economics.

It is your passport number

Please see page 8-10 of the I765 form instructions for more information. It is clearly written that it has to go where your area falls under for the (c) 9 category.

http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-765instr.pdf

If you are in Boston, it should go to TSC irrespective of which center your 485 is pending.

Roseball,

I dont think The Successor of Interest petition would be necessary as his employer is the company who acquired the other compnay. If it was the other way around then the Successor of Interest petition would have been a necessity.

HRPRO

Yes, you are right. I thought it was the other way around. Thanks for correcting. A new LCA should be enough.
