Hi,
I apologize in advance if this has been discussed before.
My case:
Currently working on H1 with Company CURR, on 8th year of H1,
H1 validity Dec 2009.
I-140 approved > 180 days,
I-485 filed > 180 days
Currently have 2 year validity EAD.
Getting offer from NEWEMP. NEWEMP ready to "transfer" H1B. (Job duties and title same/similar)
Question : If I get H1 "transferred" to NEWEMP (basically work on H1 and NOT EAD), and CURREMP revokes I-140, will this effect my GC process. I intend to work on H1 and keep on renewing EAD based on i-485 filed. NEWEMP will be providing AC21 letter which will be send to USCIS after I join them.
1. Will there be any effect to my GC process in case CURR Company revokes I-140?
2. Can I keep on renewing EAD even though I would work on H1 with NewEMP?
I would appreciate any input on this matter. I need to take some decision very soon.
Thank you all.
Regards
GCCovet

Guys:
Before we get all excited and start signing petitions, please check to confirm whether you are legally safe by doing so. For more information please see this link from Murthy website http://www.murthy.com/news/n_parele.html
I write this because the petition is sponsored by a campaign manager for Kennedy. Please be very careful in signing such petitions. I would recommend discussing any such petition on this forum and getting input from the IV folks or from your lawyers before signing any petition that supports an individual or any particular political party.
Thanks bkarnik

If you are 100% sure that your old 140 was not revoked by your previous employer, it can be useful in 2 ways. Contact your old employer to verify that still they have job for you as per the 140. If so, file new 485 with that 140 as it has very old PD. As you might have missed the finger printing in 2002, your previous 485 might have been denied. But 140 is still vaild for indefinite period.
If your old employer is not offering a job to file new 485, start new GC process with your new employer and port your priority date from your old approved 140.

Hello all,
it used to be that I would look forwared to the dat DOS cam out with their bulletin, hoping that one day i will be current. that day came last month when i became current. Happiness lasted for a few days, only to realize that those dates means nothing unless your processing center is current as well.
I am from Texas, so the dreadfull TSC is the center processing my application. Last date is march 15, and i am assuming they dont follow the same pattern as DOS, that is to say updating their bulletins every month on a specific date. I am also assumin that their date usually move in increments of days rather then monts, like DOS is doing now days. My PD is August 2005. That leave me 4 months or so before anyone starts to work on my case. I have seen a couple of have been called for interveiws with PD around same time as mine. I dont see any changes on my RD message either. It still sayd, we recevied blaha blah... Generic message letting me know they have gotten my case.
What do you all think when the date usually change. Since I am current, my day to look foward is not on DOS websiter, but USCIS website, hoping that they get to processing Auguts dates soon. I am afraid that DOS might retrogress again, and my current PD will beceome thing of the past.

I have a couple of questions:
1. In the AP application form, there is a question on when you intend to travel. What should I enter there when I am only applying for some future travel and am not sure about the dates?
2. I had worked on OPT after my graduation before switching to H1 visa. So when I apply for EAD now, should I apply as a renewal applicant or a new applicant? Is OPT the same as EAD?
thanks.

None... as I did not seem to see anywhere in the filing instruction that W2 is needed... unless there is some change. Who knows nowadays...;)
Correct - None is the answer! My law firm (Fragomen) didnt ask for them when they submitted my docs on JUly 2. Maybe they are needed if the USCIS comes back with an RFE.

I read somewhere that once you use your EAD , your H1B lapses. Now A new H1B would probably would come under the cap. I am not sure if the AC21 rules take precedence over this.
How about H1B?
If one uses EAD, then files for H1b extension beyond 6 yrs (since originally that was not option, labor not pending 365 days), when extension approval comes, go out of country, come back on H1b stamp? is that do able?

I am in my 8th year extension which is ending in April, My attorney think its 100% win case for one main reason
my labor is filed EB3 Skilled worker
he mentioned with in EB3 there are 2 categories Skilled and professional
for EB3 professional USCIS has complete authority to deny based educational requirements and they can define educational requirements based on job profile.
but for eb3 skilled employer has complete discretion of defining edu requirements.
mine was filed in eb3 skilled and ETA clearly says client will accept 3 year foreign degree.
h thinks any second eye would have approved this but it was unfortunate to be processed by a adjudicator who does have comeplete knwledge and does not know difference between eb3 prof and eb3 skilled
his plan of action is to send them evaluations from multiple academies as you guys have mentioned.
and it looks very fishy from the denial letter
denial states I have now taken any maths courses in graduation but course in physics and chemistry in graduation, and one math course in intermediate which is not sufficient.
and maths is mentioned between physics and chemistry we don't know how he could miss that, Intermediate transcripts does mention mathematics.
I can paste exact content of denial by tomorrow.

Hi All,
Just posting my experience of traveling on AP as a reference for others:
I traveled to Japan on a business visit with all 3 copies of my AP , and on return stood in the normal visitor line. When I came up to the officer, he said I should go to the "new immigrants" line, since only those officers have the necessary parole stamps.
In the other line, the officer said it was good that I brought all three copies, since they stamp all three, keep one original for themselves and return two back. The next time I travel, they will stamp the two I have, keep one and return one to me. After that, they will stamp the one original I have left, and make copies for themselves.
The officer did not ask any special questions, except which city I stay in, the rest of it was just chit-chat.
Simple process, no hassles.
Enjoy!
thanks for sharing the experience. One more question: which port-of-entry was this at? Interesting that it all completed at the main counter, many people ended up in secondary inspection when they used the AP.

Yesterday, there was a problem with the uscis web site. I tried to use the web site several times. Did you try to use the web site yesterday? or before?
I received a receipt confirmation for my I-140 petition. It shows that they received on March 24, 2006. I tried to check on the status on USCIS website in case status. I could not find my case so far. Does it take so long to be updated. I am worried if my petition is misplaced somewhere...
Please give me your advice.

We can try to make a legitimate point that H1Bs contribution to the economy is huge. Guess what that is why the companies try to hire more H1Bs. But... who is listening?
In the depression years - post 1929. Immigration to the US fell to 10% of what it was in 1929 and remained like that for 10 years. 400,000 Mexican immigrants were forced back to Mexico.
Immigration officers proactively sending back H1Bs is not totally unexpected. I hope and pray that the economy and the job situation improves in the coming months. Otherwise I wonder if there is more to come?
You should also quote medieval times examples here. So slashing H1b's heads could be justified.
My friend, 1929 is not equal to 2010. With all globalization happenings and trade dependability between countries this is not a fair treatment. This is modern world where export and import are essential and no one can stop it. In case of H1, knowledge is being imported into this country for whatever reason. I am shocked at your comment "proactively sending back". What they are doing is NOT proactive. If they want to act proactively, then they should send a letter communication revoking the H1 petition stating economical reasons even before going for stamping.

Hi,
My wife is on an H4 and we're planning to change her status to F1.
Now my H1, thus her H4 is up for renewal soon (I have another 3 yrs on my H1).
I will very soon be transferring my H1 to a new company.
I am worried about the implications this might have on the H4 to F1 transfer.
1] When my new company transfers the H1, will they also file for renewal? Or will they only transfer and later renew seperately.
2] Assuming that we change the current H4 to F1, then will we have to renew the F1 too when my wife's H4 is transferred (due to my H1 transfer).
3] Is it better to transfer to F1 from the current H4 , or wait for the new H4 for the transfer.
All advice/suggestion would be really appreciated.

If it is a big company, the lawyer fees is not small, they charge about 15K for the whole process and if they add liquidation damages(marketing efforts), it might be bigger.
Talk to them if you have not started work, you might just have to pay the H1B fees
15K for filing H1 ?????

Various conspiracy theories are
1. They made all PD current for July to encourage legal immigrants to support CIR. CIR is failed they backed out on July. But it has weak argument as they moved PD for about 2 years in previous month.
2. They made PD current based on rules and regulations as 60k Visa was available. But USCIS may lose fees increase so they backed out to get more revenue. If this is correct they will make all PD current in Oct 2007. But I do not think this will be reason as just for more money for Organization anyone will risk their career. If anyone gets personal financial gain then they might do but here there is no chance for that
3. Because first 2 weeks of June not much approvals of I485 DOS made all PD current. But when USCIS started approving cases they realized that there were enough applications already and alerted DOS and DOS issued revised VB
4. USCIS does not want flooding of I485 applications as that will be shown up as backlog. To prevent that they asked DOS to issue revised VB
There is going to be 3 important questions in Lawsuit(If court accepts lawsuit for consideration) or congress hearing(if happens)
1. Whether DOS or USCIS violated law in issuing revised VB.
2. Whether they violated law in bypassing FBI check for applications to make Visa numbers unavailable
3. Why they could not accept the I485 applications based on First VB? What is the need for issuing revised VB?
If this is true it's really horrible and scary that this gov. agency is handling our applications.
