I've been reading a lot regarding how many people is submitting their application this month, some how after see the possible figures I feel demoralized, looks like before July 2007 all of us were having an idea of our process, then the USCIS mess appeared and now I have no idea of when I will receive the GC or if some day I will receive it.

The USCIS just gave us the sense of advancement but in reality they did not giveus anything, just look the facts, you will have EAD and PAD, but if your I140 or I485 fail then you will be ouf of status, so many people will decide to maintain their H1B status, so why did we apply?

Can any one elaborate or give an estimate of when will we be receiving our GC (whe nI say we I'm thinking in all the people applying under the Visa Bulletin 2007 mess).

Thanks

The Part 3 of form I-539 is asking below questions:
1. I/We request that my/our current or requested status be extended until***** (mm/dd/yyyy): __________

Here, actually, I'm applying for change of status & not extension. Should I write N/A or the I-94 expiry date of my spouse's H1 petition?

I-94 expiry date of spouse

2. Is this application based on an extension or change of status already granted to your spouse, child, or parent?

Here, should I say Yes or No??

If your spouse is already on H-1 it is a "YES"

Thanks this is very helpful...How do you find the neareset USCIS office..

Does a transfer within the same company to a different position require a new h1? Is the time spent working considered 'unauthorized' if the H1 is not transferred?

Hi Guys,

How important is NAICS code. Can someone has same SOC code but diffrent NAICS code can interchange . I read only SOC codes, discription and wages matter.Is it true.

Thanks

Hi guys,

I hit a road block lately with my new H1B application. I'm on extended OPT and filed for my H1B in regular processing in the month of Sep'10 while working for a Client A. The Client A could not provide an Client letter during that time. My employer has then proceeded with a letter from my Prime Vendor . Then, unfortunately after 1 month of filing my H1B, my contract with Client A ended and I moved to another contract with Client B. Now, USCIS had few questions with Client A because of missing client letter and gave a RFE on my case. My employer then responded with an amendment petition to the RFE with the new Client B and also provided a client letter from Client B this time around. But, unfortunately USCIS has rejected the amendment petition and stated they are looking for Client A stuff as the primary H1B application has listed Client A and now, I just received an update that my H1B has been denied stating the same reason that USCIS is still looking for response to the query on primary client (Client A). I'm really struck now as my employer is in no mans land whether to file for a MTR or not, fearing that USCIS might not change the verdict because they might still look for Client A letter.

I need your valuble advice in this situation ASAP.

Hi,
Wanted to know if there is any limitation on H4B visa date for coming in to US. My wife's H4B visa ends on Sep28 2009, she will travel and will be back on 28th Aug 2009. Is there any problem since its only 1 month from expiry.

In the meantime I will apply for an H1b extension.

Please reply
Regards,

She should be OK. But apply for H4 extension once she is back here.

Hi All,

How many of you gone through this postings in www.Murthy.com website.

"Priority Date Movement and H1B Extension Strategies"

This article states that one can't apply for 3 years H1b even if their I140 is approved and they should go for 1yr extension. In my case I am short of 20days to be eligible for 1yr extension. since my H1B expires 20days before my Labour filling date.

Note:
a) I dont have my visa stamped on my pp
b) My wife's H4 expires on July07 mine oct\07
c) I have already filed for 3yrs of H1B and H4 extension as of May before the PD became current.

1) So What are my options?
i) Apply for 485 and wait for EAD.
ii) Leave the H1B petition as such Apply EAD and wait for the decisions on my case
iii) Go to canda for 25 days and come back with out stamping and recapture the dates and apply for 1yr extension
iv) Go to canada get H1B stamped and go to INDIA for a month and get H4 stamping for my wife and come back and recpature the dates and get 1yr extension.
v)File 485 get receipt and go to INDIA for 3months and recapture the dates
and get 1Yr extn and come back in H1B.
vi) Don't File 485. Go outside country gain 21days and apply 1Y extn.
vii) with draw current petition and apply for my wife till 10\07.


2) What happens if my 3yrs extenson petition is rejected\RFE is sent? Will my wife be out of status bcos her h4 is valid only till 07/07.
what happens if she has to leave if the petition is cancelled. Her I94 is expired.whether she will face any problems at the airport.

3)Can she maintain a valid status after 07/07 if the case is still pending?
if Yes untill when?

thanks for reading this .

Thanks for your time.....

My lawer is a delay master & I believe one can file himself. Is there any experienced guy here ?

Do one has to file 485 EAD & AP together or one can file 485 first & can file EAD & AP later on ?


What are the big NO NO & traps / mistakes one should avoid ??

This thread can be a big help for new filers...

Please share your experience

Thanks

Can somebody provode me list of H-1 sponsoring consultants in non-IT field?
What do you mean by non-IT? Be more specific.

Hello everyone,

It is extremely unfortunate but I have lost my green card. I can�t seem to find it anywhere. I know that it has not been stolen, just lost! I need to apply for a replacement green card ASAP. I need to submit some initial documents along with my I-90 form for it. I have been trying to search on the internet regarding it but I can�t seem to find a clear answer.

Long story short, could somebody please tell me what initial documents are there to submit along with my I-90 form? I have a copy of my original green card, but is there anything else required? Am I required to submit my photos along with my form?

I would highly appreciate if someone could reply to my queries ASAP.

Thank you very much in advance.

Someone posted their experience on murthy.com H1B visastamp forum with topic hyderabad consulate. He got his visa it seems.
Hope this helps

Should be TRUE...as USCIS can use the SPILL OVER VISA # only in last month ...!!!

Do we need to send the copy or the original of the Employment letter for filing 485?

masala_dosa, this is my understanding. once you have applied for EAD, its your responsibility to keep it valid all the time, independent of if you are using the EAD or NOT. You have to appy for renewals before it expires etc. i dont know if it impacts the current gc process or not.

two scenarios:

If you are using EAD for your current job, and if you did not renew ( or alteast file for renew) before it expires you may notbe able to continue the job.

If you are NOT using EAD, but have an EAD on hand you are supposed to keep it valid.

once again - im not an attorney and all above were my understanding.
why dont you talk to your attorney. he/she may have a simple answer for this.
