Hi
First off, I know that people responding on this forum are spending valuable time answering my questions and very much appreciate the time you spend reading and responding to my requests.
I have the following situation:
1. Currently working on H1B, renewed effective Sep 15 2009 for the next 3 years (i.e. expires 2012 Sep)
2. I-485 filed in Aug 2007, PD of Jan 2006 for EB-2 / India.
3. Received and used Advance Parole in the past year or so to re-enter US (for spouse and me)
4. Have a valid EAD card that will expire October 2010. If relevant, spouse does not work, although she has an EAD card with same validity.
5. I accepted a job offer and expect to start work on Oct 5 2009 with the new company. The new job has a very similar description as the previous and is about the same level as well but higher pay.
My questions are as follows:
1. Should I request the new company to 'transfer' my H1B? What are the benefits and drawbacks of transferring the H1B as against switching to the EAD? What is the filing requirement for the transfer in terms of deadlines (i.e. do I need to have it filed on or before or within certain number of days after Oct 5?)
2. Will I be in violation of the AC-21 requirements ? What will I need to do to continue my GC process. The new employer has agreed to support the GC process and will do what is required.
3. In all this switchover, what documentation should I be requesting from my current employer's law firm? This is a big law firm and may take a few days to respond.
I need to be on point and keep pushing with the new employer as well as with the old one to make sure my legal status is not affected in the US. As such any additional tips / suggestions you have will be great too.
I have tried to provide as much detail as possible but please do let me know if I have missed anything. Again, thank you for your responses.

Hi,
We had been to Canada in Sep, 2003 for our Canadian residency stamping. While on our way back to San Francisco, US immigration did not stamp our passports or take back our I-94's. Prior to this trip we had been to India in March, 2003.
Now I am confused as to what should be our last date/port of entry to US? I-94's/passport stamp still indicates our March, 2003 trip and Our Canadian PR stamp does indicate date PR was stamped in Canada. But there's not other stamp/proof on passport for our entry to San Francisco.
Any pointers/suggestions?
Thanks
Travel to contiguous territory such as Canada for a period of 30 days or less does not count as last Port of entry because they dont take your I-94 or stamp your passport. Therefore you have to put your Prior trip of March 2003.

If USCIS cannot handle 1 legal million immigrant applications, how they are going to manage 12-20 million applications by the illegal aliens...its going to come soon...

The Dems. don't want to go this alone. If they get some Republican support they will go along with it.
Republicans will only get on board if they see the proverbial crops rotting, buildings left unbuilt, and inflation picking up and all the beneficial effects of immigration dissipate. Thats what we are seeing now, stepped up enforcement to see if any of this happens. The arrest and deportation of that illegal immigrant who sought refuge in a Chicago church is as much real as symbolic of a shift in US Gov't policy.

Unless the dependent is going to have his 140 filed under EB1 I am not sure it would help.
But to answer your question, I think it is ok to file. Check with your attorney before you do that though
Thanks.

Thanks for the information.
Can we file I-130 and I-485 concurrently in this category now or I need to wait until my priority date is current to file I-485 in this category?
Appreciate your thoughts in this.

Hi Immigration Gurus,
I have a valid H1B Visa which is expiring on Feb 16th, 2008 and my old H1 is expiring the same day as my Visa. I applied for my H1B extension my H1 extension is pending. I am planning to go to india on Dec last week and coming back on jan 7th.
1) Can I travel without any problems/
2) While coming back, what are the documents I need to show, will my old H1 is enough or do I have to show receipt of showing I applied for extension?
I really appreciate your time and advice, advanced thanks

my GC application was done in 2001 via my mom who is a GC holder.
Will IV assist in legal non employment based GC application?
or is IV only active in employment based GC issues?
:confused:
Please read using the following link what IV Stands For. (IV is not a Law Firm) but is a group of Skilled Immigrants who are in process of immigrating, most if not all under employment categories. (EB) where sponsorship of petition/person is via an Employer.

Thank you Lazycis. I had posted a thread a couple of days ago when the report came out.
We are looking at our members doing some analyis work on this report and sending us their feedback. If you and others are interested, pls do so.
This will help IV efforts in help USCIS in fixing their problems and suggesting solutions to USCIS.

Hi, I am currently on my 5th year H-1B visa. I have an option to stay with the same firm and they will help me apply greencard. But I am also considering an opportunity in Bermuda for a 2-3 year program (with the same firm).
My question is if I come back to the US after 2 years, will I be able to apply H-1B visa again? Will it be a whole new H-1B petition/application process subject to the H-1B cap?
Or will it be just another H-1B renewal process following my previous two terms?
Do I need to wait for another two terms of H-1B to expire before starting the greencard process?
Can I ask my currently employer to apply for greencard concurrently while I am working outside the US?
Thanks,
E
1) Yes you can come back fter 2 years and apply for a new H1B , you will get a new H1 for 6 years .
Can I ask my currently employer to apply for greencard concurrently while I am working outside the US?
YES , YES , YES ...if you can get this done that will be the best option...
file a GC application and apply for Consulare proces ,
Thanks

My wife recently returned from India and at port of entry, the officer incorrectly wrote the paroled until date as Jul 12, 2010 instead of Jul 12, 2011. The date is incorrect on both I-94 and AP.
Will this create any issues and how can this be corrected? Her status is AOS pending, she doesn't have a EAD or H-visa
My wife's AP is valid till Oct 12, 2010. I would appreciate any help
Thanks a lot!

See http://immigrationvoice.blogspot.com/
Could you change the flashplayer to something else that has forward/rewind controls. I closed the website a few times accidentally and I had to start all over again as this has no forward buttons.
Secondly, does anyone have access to AILA ? There is a mention of procedures to correct improper rejections by the service centers for cases with incorrect date stamps, lost checks or documents due to the errors on part of service center. I am badly in need of these procedures because I need to know what actions my attorney can take to fix my rejection issue. And I am sure there are many more in the same boat looking for this information.

TACKLE CHALLENGES, HEAD ON.
By S. Lavanya Gowri, The City University of New York.
THE HINDU, MONDAY, DATED 10TH DECEMBER 2007.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is easy to loose hope. It is easy to to quit working hard. But what pleasure do we attain when we do things that are easy? The challange in life lies in tracking those problems encountered EVERY DAY.
The true power that lies within each mortal (Human being) sees light in pain and agony, in crisis and distress, in lonelyness and restlessness.
Nobody discovers anything marvellous lying on the couch or the Bed. IT'S HARD WORK THAT MATTERS IN THE END. PATIENCE AND PERSEVERANCE ARE THE GREATEST VIRTUES OF SUCCESS.
Recollect the movements of your education, career where you had enjoyed those joyous movements of winning a competition or a Project - I bet you felt your ADRENALIN pumping fast and being on cloud NINE. Did that come to you easily ? Nothing comes easily.
GET UP AND GET INTO THE MAZE OF PROBLEMS TO COME OUT WITH A SOLUTION FOR EACH ONE OF THEM AT A TIME.
EINSTEIN was some one like us. GANDHI was also one mortal (Human being) like us. IT IS THE SPIRIT OF GOODNESS AND HARDWORK THAT DIFFERENTIATES A MORTAL FROM A "MAHATMA", EVERY DAY FROM BEING "THAT DAY". MAKE EVERY MOVEMENT, A MOVEMENT TO BE CHERISHED FOR HAVING LIVED THROUGH.
MAKE EVERY DAY A WORTHY DAY OF LIFE. "SELF RECOGNITION AND SELF ANALYSIS" are two tools that can help you succeed in the GREATEST TRIALS YOU FACE.
