I complete 6 yrs on H1-B in August, 2007
Have PERM/I-140 approved with 3 yr H1B extension from August 2007 to Feb 2010.
Have a good job offer from company B, but seek your clarifications before I move further.
a. If I move now, can I take my 3 yr extension filed by company A with me or
b. should I join company B in September 2007( when I complete 6 yrs) during the 3 yr H1B extension period ?
Kindly help me out.
I am not worried abt porting the PD as I don't mind waiting on H1 forever as the wait for GC
is making my life miserable.
Thanks

Please name your thread appropriately, dont make it look like an ad for caregiver. Also, you are going to need an attorney for this and you will not be able to get your problem solved with forum posts.
I am going to allow this thread as we have allowed H4 related and visitor visa related threads for people before, and all visitors visa thread are non-immigrant visa related thread even if they are for parents of EB immigrants.
And please ... no more arguments between "This forum is overly Indian/Chinese" versus "This forum is not so".
There is a naturally high number of posts about indians/chinese because retrogression victims from India and China outnumber rest of the world proabably 8 to 1.

If you've got six batteries in it, you're using the AA adapter in the MB-D100, which is notorious for very short life. You should be using the lithium ion batteries instead, which are more reliable. Even though the MB-D100 has space for two of the lithium batteries, you can use it with only one installed. Hope this helps.

Thank so much for your reply. However, this was my first attempt with the camera so I used new batteries (six). Nontheless, I will try to change it.
Thanks.

She doesn't have to go for H4 Visa stamping, as she already has a valid H4 Visa stamping valid until Aug 2009. (I think). I'm more worried about Port of Entry, if she will have any problems..

If you are not using EAD why renew it? Unless you are one of the people who applied under the new scheme (free EAD and AP for life), you are just wasting $340 + $305 = $645 (per person).
You can easily wait till you move to new place before applying - if at all you want to apply. If your EAD & AP have expired, I am not sure if the new EAD/ AP will be considered as a "new" application or a "renewal".
free "EAD and AP" for life what are you talking about??

Delay and concerns about USCIS processing time updates
E-Mail Text
Dear [Name of your local representative]:
I am writing you in reference to the USCIS processing times updates on their web site at https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/processTimesDisplay.do. Following are my concerns:
1. The last update on processing time was published on November 18, 2008. No update was made to the processing time since November 18, 2008.
2. There appears to be discrepancy between the dates the processing time is posted and the service center processing dates. Attached is the processing time report from November 18, 2008 for California Service Center, Nebraska Service Center, Texas Service Center, and Vermont Service center. Please notice the date processing time was posted was November 18, 2008 and the service center processing dates was given as of September 30, 2008.
I will appreciate if a corrective action is taken so that the processing times are published on time and the discrepancy between the date posted and service center processing date is addressed.
Thank you,
[Your Name]

Unfortunately there is no way around it. So in short, if you do not get your EAD in time, not only can you work but you cannot drive. Interesting times.
Wonder how illegals manage their day to day stuff without being able to drive. Atleast in TX where there is no semblance of public transport.
Sheriff Arapio will have a field day if he comes here.
Do we need to go back and renew again after obtaining the new EAD ?

I still have 2 weeks before I leave for my trip, now is it advisable to apply for another AP this week and wait for it to come? Will that application make my current AP invalid?
From what I understand, you need to be here in the US while you apply for your AP, but can travel on your older AP while this one is still in process. Is this correct?
Is there a chance for AP denial, and how does that affect the chance of an AP extension in Future?
You cannot enter the US on Advance Parole (AP) unless you had that specific AP when you left. So you cannot apply for AP now, leave the US, have someone send the approved AP to you in India, and use that AP to return to the US next year..
There is always a slight chance that the AP will be denied. However that should not affect your chances of getting a new AP in the future.

Ask them what the exact restriction is. It could be something as simple as needing a copy of your driver's license.
This is probably somebody at the plan administrator who doesn't have the foggiest idea about US immigration law.

I see no reason why you cant move to permanent offer.
Is it not risky to move when your RFE response is pending? I worked for just 2 employers for 9 yrs between 2000 -- 2009
then since March I have so far been with 2 employers and now 3rd PERM offer.. I am concerned if that can create issues..

Add you wife , 2 weeks before she comes, IE if she is coming on 16th may add her on 1st may.
pay some extra premium.
wouldn't that be common sense....
You cannot add before she comes here. She can bring some insurence from country of origin.

Guys,
I am proposing a "IV Annual Meet", Not all of IV need to meet in one place, but all the state chapters can meet in their local states on this one day. We should make this a annual affair. ATLEAST, we should meet once a year. It should be for a whole day, 10 - 5. Every one who wants to visit can RSVP, we can do it in a grand way with lunch etc...we can cover the expenses with a donation of $25 per person .
When ?
First Saturday of the first week of November ? This way we do not disturb people's summer time vacations.
How does this help ?
First, it will help to meet State members face to face.
We can invite distinguished people to our meeting to give a speech, so we get press coverage.
We can decide our next steps.
Basically we can do a lot.
We can do some voting too. I (lot of other IVans too) have always wanted to change our groups name to "LegalImmigrationVoice", (no offense to the people who coined this name, they have started a organisation that all Legal Immigrants are benefited, they should find a place in US history books ! :) ) so we do not give the benefit of doubt to anyone that we represent ill-legal immigrants also.
Every one please share your thoughts as what we can do in this annual meet.
I strongly agree with this proposal. Even if it doesn't yield too much, it definitely keeps the tempo and momentum in the community. I kind of propose two days:
1st day for meeting at the state level chapters in respective states
2nd day national meet. In the national meet, few representatives from the states take the messages from the previous state meet and discuss them at the national level. or some workable model, where we get the message from state meeting to the national meeting.

Does the 45 day limit on being able to use a LC mean that priority dates from an approved LC and I-140 can no longer be ported when the GC process is started again through a new employer ?

jcrajput.. I have had my renewal stamping done last month in India and am purely stating from personal experience. I was asked for to show 6 months of paystub by the officer. Luckily I had them on me so I could show it.
You can take the minimum but travelling with the minimum puts your family at a risk when you go for the interview. No lawyer or any other member at IV can help you there.It Doesnt hurt to be proactive and prepared in the right way. In this time of recession, more documentation has been asked then ever. For my earlier stamping no documents were required, but this time W2's and paystubs were asked.
You may even want to ask Mr 1000 watt when he last got his stamping done and go by whatever he recommends.
Can you tell us if you renewed your H1B with the one who filed your previous H1B or you filed with a new employer this time?

Was your wife successful in getting an H1B visa stamped in her passport? If yes, could you please share your experience for the visa stamping interview/documents, etc. Your post will be helpful for some who plan to return on H1B/H4 (including me).
Thanks.
My wife would be travelling to India soon and the question is whether to use AP or go for a H1 visa. She has been working on H1 (but no H1 visa yet) and also has a valid AP. The 485 is pending on my name.
In my understanding if she uses AP in the reentry, her status would change to AOS (Adj of Status) and can stay until the 485 is adjudicated. But if 485 is rejected she would be out of status immediately. We have been told (by my filing attorney) that if she gets a H1 visa this she wouldn't be out of status in case of 485 rejection - she can continue to stay & work on H1.
Is the above correct ? And if 485 gets rejected while on H1 would she be out of status immediately ?
- I heard that the 485 rejection mentions an 'order' to leave the country within x number of days - I was wondering what the implications are if she is on H1 status (having reentered on valid H1 visa earlier) - Does her status still hold good and continue stay and work on H1 ?
- Also at the time of applying for H1 visa what kind of information can be or cannot be shared at the Visa Interview ? just to make sure that the H1 visa doesn't get rejected due to her pending 485
Many Thanks !!!
