Hi Guys,
As you may recall, we have had several phone meetings with Ms. Susan Henner, attorney at law. She has explained many issues and helped many of our members for free. You can see her tomorrow at 11:30AM EST on Fox News. She will be talking about an interesting immigration case.
NO, this is not a joke.

I had a similar situation, and I had to change the employer and start all over again. However, your situation looks much better than mine. I was trying to find a lender to vouch for my employer, but that didn't happen. Your employer, on the other hand, has the lender. I believe you should be fine. The only area I'm not sure about is the period of time you didn't work for the health reason. This one I would consult about with a lawyer, since you are supposed to be employed while on H1b, or else you're out of status. There may be certain exceptions (like health-related issues) in the law.

I am planning to file Labor in EB2. My Attorney sent job requirement which needs Master's + 1 year experience. But my current salary is almost 20k less than prevailing wage (level 4) for senior software engineer. But currently my salary equivalent to wage level 2.
I think i may get query at i140 , But Lawyer suggested Employer would need to be able to demonstrate their ability to pay the difference between actual salary and the prevailing wage at the time of the I-140 filing .
I am unable to get clear picture on wage levels. If i mention Level 2 , will this qualify for EB2?
Any suggestions on this.
Thx

Hi Ramesh,
Online case status is often incorrect, incomplete, or out-of-date. I would say it is correct about 70% of the time. That leaves a lot of room for error. Please don't think it will "save you" for being late on an RFE response.
You should not think everything is OK simply because online case status fails to mention the RFE being issued. (By the same token, you should not necessarily panic if online case status never acknowledges receipt of your RFE response, even though you have proof from FedEx that you sent it.)
As Elaine Martin said, the overwhelming odds are that your application will be denied due to the RFE deadline being missed by such a great deal. However, what is there to lose at this point by trying? Try to have the attorney explain as best s/he can the reason for the delay, and hopefully CIS will accept the late response. But be prepared for the likely denial.

Hi,
I did not sign in the 325 form...where it says that sign here
"if your native alphabet is other than Roman letters, write your name in native alphabet below".
Would this be a concern?
Thanks

Hi folks,
I have a appointment at calgary, canada for my H1 extension visa stamping. Any one has experience in Calgary.
My spouse entered the US on H4, she has a MBBS degree from india and she got H1 sponsored by a reputed university to do research.
I read on the posts that first time H4 to H1 stamping might pose a issue in canada if a person does not have degrees from US or Canada.
Please let me know.
Thanks

If H1 for your spouse is already approved, there should not be any problem provided you carry all necessary documentation. If it is under processing (not yet approved), and you have your H1 approved, your spouse should not have problem for H4.

How will you do that? I guess, while working on cases, user has to click somewhere to send an email. If they choose not to, then there will be no email. In my case, I never saw consistency in getting emails. I don't think that is a big issue, just check your status periodically. Bigger and important issue is how to get your case processed faster, and in sequence.
USCIS online case status system broken, My AP receipt numbers are not showing up online. we need to alert concerned USCIS authorities directly or thru IV's contacts in USCIS or thru AILA.

Hi,
My I-485 AOS thru my Husband's I-140 is pending right now.
Recently My sister's Approved I-130's priority date is Current, So now I Can file for AOS thru my Sister's I-130 also.
My question is :
Which is better Interfile or new filling ?
What are the advantages and dis-advantages of both ?
If I go for Interfiling and If My Application is not approved thur one track (I-130 / I-140) will my application be pending for another track ?
Thanks

It all depends on their background check and security requirements.
As a non-US citizen your EAD has the same worth as a H1B for these jobs. Same is the case for LPR's for US Federal jobs with various security clearance checks (where only US Citizens can apply).

I am sorry if this has been asked 100 times before and would appreciate if someone can provide a linky.
Is it okie to have gap between AP renewals or is it a problem?
Thanks
-p
It is ok to have gap between AP renewals even when you are using EAD as work authorization. You are ok if did not apply for AP during the entire I-485 wait time, even if you are using EAD or used AC21 to change employer. You need valid AP only on the day you leave US, period of stay outside of US and the date you enter back into US when waiting for I-485 approval. In the same manner, you need not even apply for EAD if you do not plan to use EAD card or the gaps between EAD period is also ok as long as you are not using EAD as your work authorization, and you have other work authorization like valid H1/J1.
EAD & AP are just like Add-ons to your computer. They are not mandatory, but you definately want them at the time you want to use them.
Hope this answers your question.

H1 would be valid/active the moment you accept employment with H1-B sponsoring employer.
Since you haven't started working and assuming you haven't accepted the offer from the
H1 sponsoring employer, YOU should be fine.
Please take advise from your company attorney.
you are wrong. I am not on H1 but I think the moment you get H1, in this case COS from H4 to H1 within few months you should have paying job. There will be problem at time of extension if no paystubs are present. Bench or not employer need to Pay H1b if he has hired one.

My wife has her H-4 visa expired. She has her papers(I-797) valid until Dec 2010.
My firm plans on filing an extension for my H1 and my wife's H4 next month. Is it ok for her to stay in India while the H1/H4 extension is getting processed?
Is it ok to travel via Frakfurt? Would she need a transit visa?
Please advice. Thank you,for your responses.
Yes. We faced this problem once. She should either stay in India or the US until the H4 approval notice comes through. Try not to travel after the extension application is filed.
Remember that if she is in the US, then you will submit her current I-94 which will be renewed by USCIS and that will also appear at the bottom of the I-797 approval notice. If she travels back to the US, then she will get a new I-94 (new number) that will expire in Dec 2010 (she will need a new visa stamp to travel, BTW). You then have to go through the additional steps of sending that to USCIS and/or filing again for extending the "new" I-94.
I don't know for sure how big of a problem it is, but I think it is a big problem to have an I-94 that does not match what is on the approval notice.
If she stays in India, however, then she will get a clean H4 approval notice....No I-94 problems there.
But please check with your lawyers too..
Transit visa at frankfurt? It might be safer to get it... will save a lot of hassle. Here is a link.

My application was received on July 3 at NSC. Till now, I haven't received any notices. I got the RNs by calling USCIS.
Now, I placed an expedite order on my EAD on Friday. They sent me a mail saying my app was received on Oct 10 and not July 3 (yeah right! if it was oct 10, why would you even accept it?). So I faxed them the fedex delivery signature confirmation. Today I see a LUD on my EAD app but nothing else has changed.
Can anyone shed some light on what might possibly going on here? I can probably wait for some more time to find out for sure but I am curious. Guys with approved EAD - did you see a LUD on your app before it was approved?
Thanks
Iam a july 2nd filer at NSC and haven't received my receipt numbers yet. can I ask you when you got your receipt numbers? Thanks a lot!
