Hi all,
I am on H4 visa now. Got a long awaited job (with EAD) which will start in June 2011. My I-94 is till september 2010 becoz H4 is stamped till that date. But I have I94 with I-797 till June 2011(6 years of H4). I want to travel to India before i start my job, probably in may. My husband is still on H1 visa eventhough he has EAD.
1.Can i travel on H4 status as i m not holding a job right now? My 797 is only till june 2011. If i go for stamping, it is more likely to get rejected.
2. Can i use EAD and AP eventhough i am not working rightnow? Are there any chance of denying my reentry with AP?
I cannot afford to loose my job and due to personal reasons, i can't avoid the travel. Please give your valuable advice.
You can use your AP for travel and come in as a Parolee even if you are not working.
Since you think you will have trouble getting H4 stamped, coming in using AP is the best thing to do.
Usually, travel with AP is smooth. If the officer asks you the reason for your travel, tell him/her that you went to see your family (don't say that you went on vacation). Make sure that you take the copy of your I-485 receipt notice and your original EAD with you, just in case. You will be sent for secondary inspection but, don't worry, that is normal practice for Parolees.
Good luck with your travel.

Gap in employment and porting priority date:
What if there is a gap of employment between leaving the previous employer who made the initial green card application under EB3 and joining the new employer who is willing to make a new application under EB2.
I-140 is approved, I-485 was pending for more than six months when the employee left the first company and has had a gap in employment for a few months. The employee has joined the new company using EAD. I-140 has not been revoked.
Would applying for the green card under EB-2 and trying to port the EB-3 priority date cause any complications given the gap in employment. The new job satisfies the same or similar job requirement with a 50% bump in salary and meets the EB-2 requirements. Would really appreciate your insight on the risks to be aware of if any due to the gap in employment. Thanks!

Gurus,
My employer and lawyer won't give me the Receipt notice of my I-485 which we filed on July 2nd. My employer did not let me file my EAD/AP as well.
Do I have any way of filing EAD/AP on my own without a copy of the receipt notice(after it is generated and sent to the lawyer)?
Someone told me that Fingerprinting notice that we get looks just like I-485 receipt notice and has all the information in there. Can we use a copy of that notice in place of I-485 RN?
The application instructions for I-765 mention that we need to submit "I-485 receipt notice OR any other proof that I-485 is pending"
Any one?

My wife's green card was approved on Feb 27th. My wife is currently in India with valid Advance Parole. I received her green card during March 15th. I am planning to visit India during June and bringing my wife along with me. It will be almost 5 months when I come back on July 1st week.
Will it create problem for my wife to re-enter to US? Since she has valid AP and GC card, can she enter without any problem? or does she need to come early since her GC was received ?

- My friend has not been paid by his current employer. So no pay-stubs what so ever
That can be an issue in H1 transfer because he may be asked to prove that he has maintained valid status ( as there is no such things as bench on H1). This is a only a potential issue, not a showstopper as I know of transfers done without paystub.
- He had signed a contract for 2 years and some ridiculous amount of money towards damages in case he leaves
This is merely a threatening exercise by the employer to keep him from leaving. It does not have any legal bearings. I have done it myself in past.
What are his options now? What if the employer sends H1B cancellation before he gets to file a new petition through the new company? Can anyone please help?
The moment your H1 application is received by USCIS, you are safe. Even otherwise, USCIS generally takes a while to revoke the H1 after recieivng the application.
But if USCIS revokes H1 before the transfer request is recieved, then you are out of status and your new application will be denied.
But let me ask you one thing, if your friend is not being paid, why in this world he needs to even tell his employer about his plans to switch. Ask him to act smart.

If the gap between arriving on B2 and converting to H1B was less than 3 months, there could be a problem with "intent" as H1 is considered a dual intent (temporary non-immigrant worker who may have the intention of applying for a permanent immigrant visa i.e., GC) visa while B2 is not. While filling up the B2 application, there is a question which we need to answer NO asking this very question. I assume your wife answered NO during the B2 process. So, with H1 in less than 3 months (if this is the case) or arrival, she has "lied" in her B2 application as per the immigration laws.
I may be wrong.Please consult an attorney if needed.
Where did you bring that number(3 months),is it listed on any USCIS websites?I've read somewhere 2 months,not 3 months...anybody knows?
Thanks

hi:
Always look at last action taken by the USCIS. If USCIS approved your H-1B for employer D, and attached I-94, that means that as long as you are working for employer D at this time and at the time you extend and re-stamp your H-1b visa, there should be no problem. Make sure you take W-2s and Tax returns from previous years you were in H-1B status when you go for a new Visa Stamp.

Will my I485, which was filed in July 2007, be automatically re-activated if my EB2 AAO appeal is approved?
I won't be filing my new I140 until probably sometime next year as I am just working on my PERM advertisements now. I am assuming that there is no time limit to using a priority date from an earlier I140.

Hi All,
Please help me on this. Here is the situation:
1. Company A First time H1B - Oct 1, 2004
2. Company B transfer - Jan 22, 2006
3. My current visa is expiring on Jan 22, 2009, but after Jan 22, 2009, I still have till Oct 1, 2010 to complete my 6 years of H1B.
4. Now, my wife who is on H-4 is currently in India on vacation, since she is not in US, her H-4 extension cannot be filed.
My question is, can I file my H-1 extension and go to India and get both of our visas stamped based on my extension? Or does my wife need to come back on her currently valid visa and file for her own H-4 extension?
Please advise and pardon me for my ignorance on this.
Thanks in advance,
DSP
>> can I file my H-1 extension and go to India and get both of our visas stamped based on my extension?
Yes. She can get H4 visa stamp based on your H1 extension approval notice.

Unfortunately, the intellectual wing of the Republicans is in hibernation for the foreseeable future. They are basically in hiding from the Glen Beck wing-nuts, so I doubt if Sullivan is very influential right now. He ought to be for conservatives because he is quite insightful but Beck provides plenty of pablum for the lazy.

Sorry.. Subject should have been "Filing PERM During 6th year of H1"
Hi,
I have approved I140 from company A and leaving it in few days. I will enter into 6th year in March next year.
Company B filed H1 transfer based on I140 from company A and H1 transfer is approved for three years.
Company B is little hesitant to file GC immediately due to economy but promising to file before I enter 6th year, but I am not fully sure if they do.
Can GC process be started when I am in 6th year under above circumstances? (H1 extension is NOT needed for 3 more years).
If Labor from company B gets denied during or after 6th year, can company B apply another PERM labor and pursue my GC processing?
Thanks
WA
Yes, you can start your GC process anytime. You have a safety net of an approved I-140 to get you H1 extensions. Yes, as long as there is a job which you are eligible for and the company is willing to sponsor you, there wont be any issues in applying.
