You need to have an 1-485 application in at least for six months before using portability.

You can contact a body shopper and ask them to file I-140 and use your current priority date.

There is nothing else possible if you are already at your sixth year of H1B.

Dice is loaded against H1Bs.

While there are some politicians genuinely concerned about the subject of immigration who are backing anti-immigration laws because they believe in the cause, there are many more who have jumped on the anti-immigration bandwagon to score political points (John McCain - I'm talking to you). I wonder if politicians in small towns that don't have a lot of fat in their budgets are going to re-evaluate the costs and benefits when they have to explain to constituents why they have to pay hefty fees to plaintiffs in lawsuits like this one in a small town in Nebraska. Sure Sheriff Joe...

Hi Folks,

Just read this on msnbc. Seems like they take away your electronic devices (laptop, digital camera, cellular, e.t.c) and then access all the info on the device. I am traveling in a weeks time and was taking with me all the above mentioned items. Now I am weighing the risk of traveling with my personal information on these devices. Not that i have anything illegal to hide, but still i consider this an invasion of my privacy. Any thoughts?!

I'm glad to see Immigration Voice weighing in on this one. Under some of the versions of health care reform proposals being considered by Congress, legal immigrants could be excluded for five years before they can access the Medicaid and insurance subsidies despite the fact that they pay taxes, are abiding by all of our laws and are often making critical contributions to the success of this country.

I'm a July 2nd eb3 filer. Never thougt I could file 485 on July just like many people. I started an eb2 Perm early this year with a new position same company. A month later after filed eb3 based 485, my Eb2 Perm got approved, then filed eb2 140.

The problem is my eb2 LC and pending 140 says that I'm holding a position. What can I do? should I withdraw eb2 140? Can I still take advantage of the pending eb2 140, or better leave it along?

Thank you very much for your help.

Eb3 RIR filed June 2004, approved 01/07.
Eb3 140 Filed Jan 2007, approved 7/30/07
Eb3 based 485 filed 7/2/07, Reciepted 8/27/07, EAD approved 9/7/07

Eb2 Perm filed 04/2007, approved 7/30/07
Eb2 140 filed 8/25/07 Status pending.

Thank you very much.

I am on H1-B. I filed I-485, I-131 and I-765 in August 2007 under EB3 (ROW). I got married in Sept 2007 but my wife is still in home country due to J-1 2 year HRR. Her 2 years are up in Jan 15, 2008 and she plans to join me on H4.

1. Does my company or I need to do anything for her to apply for a visa at the consulate? Does she take a copy of my H1-B approval marriage certificate and that's it?

2. When she comes the US at the end of January we plan on filing I-485 for her based on my application pending. Can she file for AP and EAD at the same time? Would she be able to work on EAD if it gets approved?

3. I got a letter in the mail today that I have to appear for biometrics on Nov 07, 2007. Does it mean that after my biometrics are taken my GC could get approved right away, even though EB3-ROW is no longer current?

4. After my I-485 has been pending for 180 days, does it mean I could take a similar job anywhere?

Thanks in advance!

H1extension

11-11 06:11 AM

Hello Forum Members -

My company has applied for my 8th year extension (3 years) based on my LC and I-140 that was applied in CA. (My LC and I-140 have been approved). But during my 7th year, I moved to NC state with the same company/department. The LCA for the extension includes both CA nad NC work locations and NC residence address.

Will there be a problem with extending the H1 using the I-140 that has been approved for CA? Will USCIS question why I am in NC when the I-140 shows a CA Address?

Please let me know your opinion.

Thanks,

I have an approved I797 from last year qouta. I got a 221g when I went to stamping for my H1 visa. The 221g was regarding some documents which the employer had to provide. Subsequently I obtained a L2 visa and I am now in the US. I would now like to apply for a change of status to H1.In this regard I had the following question:

On my L2 I have applied for a EAD about 3 weeks ago. USCIS says that it could take upto 90 days to approve the same.During this time if I apply for a COS to H1, would it influence the decision making on the L2-EAD approval or they are completely separate processes?

I have a question for the gurus. I have my GC application in process- priority date March 2006, EB2 I. When the application started my wife was on H4.

Now my wife is on H1B, and her employer has asked if she would like to have her GC processing done. Question is that can she get her application started and can I be the beneficiary on her application. The rationale behind this thought process is that considering the economic conditions, is this a safety net that one can use?

Prompt responses are appreciated

Thanks

Dear Core Team,
What is IV's stand on people still stuck in LC backlog in PEBC/DEBC, There are applications pending there since 2001/2002. If this becomes law that I-140 filed after May 2007 will be rejected then the biggest impact will be on such people as even labor is not cleared and even after waiting for so long they will lose everything.

As reported in the Wall Street Journal, a surge in corporate profits is translating into increased hiring for the high tech industry and economic recovery could come faster than anticipated. Notwithstanding the job market showing some signs of life, U.S. unemployment remains at just under 10% and will likely remain high for some years to come. While employers added more than 160,000 jobs in March, the biggest monthly gain in three years, roughly one-third of the growth came from the government's hiring of 48,000 temporary workers for the 2010 Census. So what does this all mean for U.S. employers vis-a-vis...

Can i move to Company B, on H1 transfer file Ac 21, and have perm and Labor approved through company B and then port the date of company A priority date
Without me having a proof of 140 approval will it be possible to port to the earlier date.
Or should i have company B file labor and 140 as a future employer have 140 approved then port it and move to employer B.

Thanks in advance

Some paras from Congress's Oversight Offensive (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/03/16/AR2007031601989.html), By David S. Broder (http://projects.washingtonpost.com/staff/email/david+s.+broder/), Sunday, March 18, 2007

Ten weeks into the new Congress, it is clear that revelation, not legislation, is going to be its real product.

While President Bush threatens to use his veto pen to stop some bills and Senate Republicans block other measures from even reaching his desk, no force in Washington can halt the Democrats' investigative juggernaut from uncovering the secrets inside this administration.

For the first six years of the Bush administration, these aides were allowed free rein to carry out whatever policy or political assignments they wished -- or supposed that the president wanted done. A Congress under firm Republican control was somnolent when it came to oversight of the executive branch. No Republican committee chairman wanted to turn over rocks in a Republican administration.

You have to feel a twinge of sympathy now for the Bush appointees who suddenly find unsympathetic Democratic chairmen such as Henry Waxman, John Conyers, Patrick Leahy and Carl Levin investigating their cases. Even if those appointees are scrupulously careful about their actions now, who knows what subpoenaed memos and e-mails in their files will reveal about the past?

They will pay the price for the temporary breakdown in the system of checks and balances that occurred between 2001 and this year -- when the Republican Congress forgot its responsibility to hold the executive branch accountable.

It was a fundamental dereliction of duty by Congress, and it probably did more to encourage bad decisions and harmful actions by executive-branch political appointees than the much-touted lobbying influence. In reality, many Republican members of Congress did not mind what was happening because they were able to get favors done in that permissive climate. Now, the Democratic investigators will publicize instances of influence by members of Congress, and the political fallout will not stop with New Mexico's Pete Domenici and Heather Wilson.

Democrats find it easier to investigate than to legislate. With their major initiatives, from a minimum-wage boost to a shutdown of the Iraq war, stymied by Republican opposition, the Democrats are understandably making "accountability" their new goal -- meaning more and more investigations.

Fulfilling that promise, later in the week the House passed a series of bills that stripped some of the secrecy from executive branch documents and decisions.

Accountability is certainly important, but Democrats must know that people were really voting for action on Iraq, health care, immigration, energy and a few other problems. Investigations are useful, but only legislation on big issues changes lives.

The consul gave me 221g yellow form and later received 2 emails asking for some documents which I submitted. I still have not heard any response and I understand it could take months before I get any answer. My question is can I leave Canada and go to India while the process is in review and come back to Canada if and when my H1b stamping is approved. I have multiple entry visa to Canada so I could potentially come back. My question is can I leave Canada while my visa is under process and would it have any affect?

I see the A NUMBER printed on my 140 and 485 receipt notices. I wanted to understand whether the 'A' number mentioned on the receipt notices is the VISA number or, the VISA number is something different that gets assigned during the adjudication of I485 based on the availability.

Trying to assess the impact of EB2 retrogression on cases that are already filed and Finger printing is complete.

Hi All,

One of the threads I read about requirements for I-140 smooth approval.
Please let me know

1.if anybody got any RFE's recently for getting I-140 cleared or processed. If so, what are they asking.
2. How important are salary slips in getting this approved
3. Are they asking for any recently pay stubs, if so, for how much period back in history.
The reason I'm asking this is sometimes we loose pay stubs, and hence I wanted to make sure I have all, in case any is missing.
4. Any risks in getting I-140 premium processed when dates are not close to current.
5. Any other risks.
6. How much time is it taking for regular I140 to get processed.

Any advice to this end is highly appreciated.

Thank You.
Bobby.
