well if there's a way for you to get your approved labor certification doc, or even the copy of the filed labor application; then definitely get it.
The labor app has the exact job description too. So if you do use portability (ac-21) it'll help to match it with the job specs of the new position.
good luck.
Read it properly before you jump. When there is no I-485 filed, where is the AC21 coming into the picture.

Dear all:
May I ask what I should do in the following situation?
I hold F1 visa and my new job starts on Sept 1. The int'l student office of my current university mistakenly set my OPT start date on May 6. My OPT has been approved and EAD card arrived.
That is, I will have 120-plus "unemployment" days accumulated by early August, which will then violate the "90-day unemployment rule" of OPT.
I am under tremendous pressure and really want to hear your opinions.
Many thanks in advance!

Mmm.. here is a wrinkle scenario.. though it does not technically belong here...
I was overseas for a year (posted to another branch of the company, in another country, not my country of origin, for a year), just returned to US.
Would I be considered as "in US" all the time? And would I be considered to be "in US" for the time I was posted abroad?
The reason I'm asking is that given the way this is going with this legislation if if goes through, it might be better to be an "illegal" rather than legal. I see Zero talk about people in our situation (legal nomads).
Let us get to the bottom line.. is this legislation strategically really good for us? Is a "sneak" legislation better for us than a blanket amnesty which equates an illegal hedge pruner to a legal high skilled worker and makes no distinction?
Does it make more sense for us to have this legislation scuttled than face the prospect of seeing your friendly neighbourhood illegal plumber get on the gravy train while you wait and wait? (People like me would be waiting anyway even without this legislation)
I would really appreciate a strategic FAQ: What are we really fighting for here.. what are the likely compromises on the way..

Hi firends,
I heard that now all we are getting 2 Year EAD/ AP for renewals. Thats very good news to us. I have couple of questions on this.
1. How do we need to pay for renewal? Fee will be 2 years fee or 1 year fee?
2. Is this one combined document with EAD/AP?
3. Is this process already started?
sorry friends, I don't know same type of thread running or not. If Yes, redirect me.

Hi,
I am unable to determine if the 180 day timeline is calculated from RD or ND? There are different opinions here in this forum and no clear answer. Is there a law text that defines this clearly...does anybody know?
yea...I did search this and some of the other forums :confused:

Due to Iceland's volcanic ash my MIL trip has to be postponed. She was on visitor visa. We filed an extension with USCIS and paid $300. She left US as soon as flights started to resume.
USCIS approved her extension 30 days after she left US.
a) Can we seek a refund because this extension has to be filled due to reasons beyond our control
b) In the future how to seek a fee waiver (any tips or advice please).
c) Can we seek fee waiver when we e-file a petition.
Thanks for your help

Has anyone been able to call USCIS premium processing toll free number today and talk to an Officer. I have been unable to get to an Officer today but was able to talk before. I am wondering whether there is a limit on how many times you can call(I have called 3 times so far in 10 days) or if you can't call after so many days have passed after your application is approved.
I have been contacting to get my priority date corrected on I-140 approval. Please respond if anyone has information
You cannot fix a priority date error through a phone! This is a serious thing and would need to be corrected through a letter from an attorney or something like that.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced today that it will begin accepting H-1B petitions (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) subject to the fiscal year (FY) 2011 cap on April 1, 2010. Cases will be considered accepted on the date that USCIS takes possession of a properly filed petition with the correct fee; not the date that the petition is postmarked.
The fiscal year cap (numerical limitation on H-1B petitions (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html)) for FY 2011 is 65,000. Additionally, the first 20,000 H-1B petitions filed on behalf of individuals who have earned a U.S. master�s degree or higher are exempt from the H-1B cap.
USCIS will monitor the number of petitions received and will notify the public of the date on which USCIS received the necessary number of petitions to meet the H-1B cap. If needed, USCIS will randomly select the number of petitions required to reach the numerical limit from the petitions received on the final receipt date. USCIS will reject cap-subject petitions that are not selected, as well as those received after the final receipt date.
We recommend employers to hurry up and get all the necessary documents in order to meet the April 1, 2010 deadline.

Indian Government sources had said that the Bureau of Diplomatic Security had contacted the ministry of external affairs (MEA), India around the time Mr Pacheco was incarcerated for his alleged involvement in the mysterious death of his girlfriend Nadia Torrado � he was in jail from July 9 till July 26, when he was awarded bail. He is a former Goa, India tourism minister Francisco Xavier �Mickky� Pacheco was caught on the backfoot on Sunday once again as reports surfaced that the US State Department�s Bureau of Diplomatic Security had informed India that Mr Pacheco might be involved in a big immigration and money laundering racket.
Mr Pacheco used to operate an employment agency along with his estranged wife Sara Pacheco which specialized in finding employment for Goans abroad. But according to the former minister, he has had nothing to do with the agency since he separated from his wife around four years back.
Mr. Mickey Pacheco has been accused by the US Bureau of Diplomatic Security of running an international immigration and money-laundering racket. The bureau got in touch with the external affairs ministry through the US embassy in Delhi and reportedly backed its allegations with documents and details of banking transactions. The ministry then passed on the information to the CBI. The evidence is being described as substantive. According to the US Bureau of Diplomatic Security report, Pacheco had 15 million dollars in his account in the US. He recently transferred 2 million dollars to India.

IV Core...
Any update on this bill introduced yesterday in the Senate..
Is there anything for us in this buried somewhere...??
I saw about it on CNN yesterday. A bipartisan bill is being proposed in the house (Some thing like 41 DEMS and 47 REPs) are sponsoring and they expect the number to reach 100 in a day or two.
Looks like the focus of this bill is just securing the borders and has potential to pass. It appears it is a great opportunity (If possible) to add some recapture provisions to this. Is IV working on it ? It is alright if it is being discussed in State Chapters and can't be disclosed here, please say so.

I am on an H-1B visa I had a confusion regarding my wife's case. She is on H4 visa and her H4 visa was extended to September, 2009 when I changed my employer (XXX) last year. However, her passport carries H4 visa which expires in Oct. 2007 (this was through my previous employer, YYY). Both our I-485 are pending and we both received our EAD last month. She wants to use her EAD to work in future.
A twist is that a consultant had filed for her H-1B this April and we don't know if her H-1B came through or not. He is not telling us. We just don't want to deal with that scumbag. Can we just ignore him and forget about it? Since her I-485 is pending she has a lawful status (Pending AOS), right? Please let me know what you think.

Does anybody have idea or experience how long it takes for USCIS to make desicion about I-485 expedition (pending for 2.8 years now)?
My hospital sent expedition request to TSC about 3 months ago, there is no replay yet.
I'll appreciate any advice/information.
It takes forever unless you file a lawsuit.

I applied for H1b visa transferred in Nov 08 inspite of not having recent pay stubs. After applying transfer, I started working for new employer.
Last week I got query from USCIS asking my latest pay stubs (Oct 08) and yesterday I got Laid off from my new job after working for 4 months (till Feb 09).
My husband is on L1B visa.
In my case
1. Shall I consider transferring to L2? for this do I need to go to my home country (India) for L2 stamp?
2. If COS to L2 is approved, Can I work on my old H1B again if I find an employer who is ready for transfer?
3. If I travel to my home country(India), will my H1B visa be cancelled? as currently i don't have any H1B approval.
4. Whether the Request For Evidence(REF) on my H1B transfer will have any implication on L2 stamping?
Please help ..

Media Drive - not even 9000 diggs from US!!??
There's a thread on media coverage which also states that we can get a lot of coverage amongst people via Digg.com.
What is digg and how it works- (wikipedia)
Readers can view all of the stories that have been submitted by fellow users in the "digg/News/Upcoming" section of the site. Once a story has received enough "diggs", it appears on Digg's front page. Should the story not receive enough diggs, or if enough users report a problem with the submission, the story will remain in the "digg all" area, where it may eventually be removed.
The highest rated digg in last 7 days (with 8632 hits / diggs) is that of a iphone. Our issue could not even beat the new iphone release. Immigrationvoice has about 14893 members, 7939 active members. If each member does a digg for himself and other one for spouse, we should have atleast 14000 digg to keep our write ups LIVE, in the minds of all the people visiting this page.
