Friends, I would like to know if I change job after I-140 & I-485 approval, do I still need to notify USCIS about AC-21. Also, will it require my new employer to provide a letter of job duties to confirm that the new job is either same or similar to the old one.

Thanks

Dear Viewers

Could anyone please advice me on how to claim the unpaid salary from the previous employers.

I was working for a company based in Michigan run by an Indian. This person did not pay me my last month salary. He does not pick up his phone or respond to my email. I have all the proof that my client has paid him the money for which I worked but he continue to ignore my request. This guy owes me around 5000 dollars.

Any piece of advice would be of great help.

Hello,

I currently hold H1b visa (cap quota), i have an offer from a non profit organization and they are willing to sponsor for my H1b (non cap as this is from a non profit org). I'd like to know will there be any problem if in future i plan to move to a company that will sponsor h1b (cap). How difficult is to transfer from non cap h1 to cap h1?

I read online that if i plan to move from a non-cap h1 to cap h1 in future i have to apply in April under the general quota and wait until Oct to start work again. though i can work until the petition is pending.

I'd really appreciate any advise...

Thanks

It's good question and I'm also curious to know the answer from experienced immigration attorneys in this forum.

Thanks in advance.

We should set up a webfax/email for all members to be sent to CNN and FOX like the ones we setup for the senators.

Any comments from Core team ?
Once the Core team drafts a letter we can send that....

This is not at all a bad idea. Indeed very good one and also easy to send it through Amazon.

Every member should send it to their state senator and congressmen.

Its just a thought,, maybe every IV member should buy this book and send it to their senator as a holiday gift..I am sure that most of these guys will not read it..but even 50% read or their staff read it, it will make an impact..

my lawyer mentioned that I-140 PPS will come back after Texas and Nebraska have finish receipting the flood of I485 applications.

In a AILA meeting USCIS raised concerns about their ability to process the cases in 15 days and their concern is that they don't know how many applications they'll receive for I-140 PPS.

my lawyer mentioned its free money for these guys and they will bring it back. USICS still hasn't withdrawn PPS for I-129 or I-539 applications. They use the same freaking resources except now that they are using those resources to receipt for the new I-485 applications.

have patience.

Based on the information you know about immigration and discsion u have been having with frinds ,attorneys, websites..etc. What do you think about the probability of I-140 premium starting date...!!!

I guess 485 getting current does not help much without getting i-140 approved.

I had my restamping done at Mumbai consulate 2 weeks back. They only asked me about the salary and what physical location I am working. I had taken last 3 salary slips with me, but not used at all. Make sure H4 interview is at right category if restamping H4. VFS folks did not allow my wife to go to interview since her H4 stamp on passport was expired more than 12 months, even though she has I529 approval for the period after that. One more thing with Mumbai consulate is you have to hand deliver all your paper work atleast 5 working days in advance. They do not accept via currier or other means.

Same question to you my friend. Did you renewed your H1B with the old employer or you filed with a new employer this time?

From the link, it appears that the talk here is about filing I-485 even when priority date is not current. That's different from before. Having said that, we'll see when it happens and if anything happens.

Please read properly
from the link:

This proposed rule is intended to streamline adjustment application processing by utilizing a two-step process in which registration packets can be pre-screened for documentary evidence, security checks can be initiated and completed, and pending visa demand can be adequately conveyed to DOS. The DOS will then adjust its Visa Bulletin accordingly and applicants may then proceed forward with filing their I-485s based on visa availability as reflected in the monthly Visa Bulletin.

I had an RFE which they received on Feb 8th, still no response after 12 weeks.
Is there anything to do here, or just wait and twiddle my thumbs?!

Does this mean Interim EAD option is not available any more? Was there a press release for this?

Thanks


1. Can we use AC21 provision without EAD card ?

Answer: Sure, you can. In fact, that is the advised approach. Do not fall back on EAD unless absolutely necessary.

2. My H1 expires in Jan 2008. Do I need to have EAD card before that ?

Yes, If you wish to work on EAD then you need to have it by Jan 2008. Unless the interim EAD option is bought back, I doubt if any July filer will have an EAD by January 2008. I would suggest you be prepared to extend your H-1b.

3. Can we apply for EAD later, after you have filed 485 and AP? If so do we need any reciept of 485 application?

Answer: Yes. You can do it yourself, but you will need evidence to show that a 485 has been applied.
:confused:

Logically, one cannot do a job when they are in H4 visa. But if you are keen on doing a business in H4 visa, check the county rules. I don't think some countys are strict on the status of immigration.

I forgot my password, and security question�s answer.
Is there a phone number on which I can call to get my password reset?

FYI - USCIS web site where you create your account is https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/index.jsp

There is a forgot password link on USCIS page. Click on that and enter your email id which you used to create your account. They will send you a link to reset your password.

This is going to impact lot of people.

Here is the link to the actual memo.

All those guys are gone. Were we late coming to the USA?

Thanks for opening this thread, I have a question which is not related to IV's core cause but suitable to this thread.
I want to ship my car to India and don't know where to start, I would appreciate if someone could share knowledge/experience.
Thanks in advance.

A question on consular processing vs I-485. She already has a tourist visa. Also since she is deriving her green card status from mine, her priority date is current. Could she come to US on her tourist visa and we file for I-485 here instead of doing consular processing?

Thanks,

Dinesh

Hello,

I apologize in advance, if I should have posted in a different thread - if so please let me know and I can post there (and admins can delete this one).

My priority date from Perm is Feb 2006. But I have an earlier priority date of Jan 2005 (I-140 approved). I dont know if that earlier date has been applied to my I-485 (which is based on the Perm labor). My case is in NSC.

After seeing the October VB (acc to which my RIR PD becomes current in Oct), I opened an SR to see if they interfiled my two cases. I got a letter in the mail from USCIS, but no reponse in it to my question. Instead it states the following:

"The status of this service request is:

Your case is currently being prepared for review. If further information is needed, you will be contacted. Continue to check the USCIS website for case status updates."

A few questions:

1) What does "being prepared for review" mean? Should I expect more RFEs? We had responded to Medical RFEs in April this year.

2) How can I make sure that my two cases are combined?

3) Is there any preparatory action I can take before October 1st?

I would appreciate your comments and advice on the above.

Thank you in advance.

It's good to know.

Well, i doubt having passport at FP would have helped. If in infopass they were not able to correct, how could they do it at FP ASC?
Anyways, having docs helps. I was initially debating whether to take birth certificate at infopass and it turned out it was very much needed.
