My friend works for IBM, he has been given two choices (a) take a pink slip or (b) goto India and keep the same job w/ good perks. Given the economic situation, he opted for (b).
This is sad. What happens to the greencard application? All those years of wait is going waste.

I believe, TN is not dual intent. As far as I understand, after NAFTA agreement TN category is to be treated as a regular admission class under INA �101(a)(15).
....
The best options where he will get the visa without complication and it will not matter whether he is married to you are the TN or H-1B options!

Hello there,
I have an approved H1B visa and currently I am on H4 visa. I have already applied for amendment to get the status change from H4 to H1 under normal filling. My question is, can i still work if my amendment is in process, as I already have an approved H1B?
Thanks

They want the commison to decide the number of EB GCs and this is backed by the unions. Generally unions do not like competation and want to restrict immigrants. The commison will say the 10 million americans are unemployed, so there is no need for EB immigrants. Because of outsourcing there will not be any shortage for any IT related job. So the demand will never be there. So its easy for the union and their commison to stop EB immigrants. We need to fully oppose this move. Its very cunning and calculative move by the antis....
You may be 100% correct and saying what commission/ union think,
but I am confused,
1. If union and commission considering to improve immigration system for 12 million illegal people and why not to improve immigration for legal workers.
2. Out sourcing may be an answer for IT jobs, but still demand for on site worker is there & will improve once economy comes back on track. I think, out-souring is answer to big projects but not for small or mid-level projects.

If every one is paying for health care why do every one keep saying it is the NUMBER ONE reason responsible for driving up deficits? Its because medicare and medicaid pay WAY TOO MUCH compared to what they get (from you and me). As the population ages, this will only keep getting worse. The country cant afford it. So, make every one INVESTED into their own health. So many health problems are self inflicted. That fine with me, its a free country. Booze if you like and eat your chunky monkeys and Big Macs. But if the country is required to provide health care for every one then such people need to put more into the system.
I bet US obesity rate will fall if people are given a tax break for keeping their BMI less than 25%. And tobacco, ice cream and alcohol should be taxed to the sky ( instead of my biweekly check).
And I still think doctors and nurses are not needed for a simple cold, diabetis or uncomplicated hypertension. A pharmacist or nurse assitant should be enough. Hell, with all the info on the web, i think even I can treat simple diabetis:D
And FYI I think Sarah Palin is a bimbo, Rush Limbaugh is a Rich Fat slob and Beck is retarded.
You have too many reds, however, I completely agree with what you said above. People need to start to take responsibility.:D:D

Hi
My husband had an interview at mumbai consulate on 25-june and got yellow form.
he got an email on 26-june from consulate to submit the 3 things ie passport, yellow form and email from consulate in an envelope and submit to nearest VFS.he submitted on 26-june friday at VFS. The guy at VFS told him to collect on Monday ie 29 from VFS at 5.pm.
he went there to collect but VFS told consulate has no released the passport.
can somebody tell what may be the reason
Jain4444, I read you thread you said 3 business day can you tell me did you collect in person or counting courier days took 3 days
Good thing is that the visa is approved and ready to be stamped.
Depends on the consulate's workload, it may take upto 10 days (in worst case) to get it completed.
Just enjoy your holidays at home...
(check everyday the passport status thru the SMS :) )

Last week I received email with RFE on my pending I-485 case.., this was little surprising considering RFE is issued after almost 4 months since I have moved to a new employment in a new location last sep08. LUD got updated after I filed for change of address in Oct08.
When I changed my employment I did not file for AC 21 documentation to USCIS. So far I have not received any mail from USCIS. Do the RFE details go to attorney or to myself. I am planning using the same same attorney who filed my GC to respond to this RFE..
Pls let me know if you any ideas or experiences with RFE's
-Is there any specific format for to file AC 21
-How many days we have to respond to this RFE
Thanks for your suggestions..

If it is doable, you should try EB1. This category is not retrogressed and your chances of getting your GC approved in a year or two are high. If you take the EB2-NIW route, then you should be prepared to wait for a long time.
You have no significant benefit from NIW other than the elimination of Labor. Labor time is much less of a problem than waiting for India EB2 to become current.
NIW vs Labor: one more advantage- NIW has much more portability being a self petition. You can file an EB1 and also file NIW using the same documentation- it will cost you filing fees and offer you a second chance- a backup.

Wondering if EAD allows one to take a second job i.e. if one maintains both H1 and EAD status.
You can take up a second job or even start your business...however, you cannot keep both h1b and ead as per my understanding....Once you choose to use ead, i.e use ac21 to change employers then you are on ead no more on h1b. However, I did have this question:
If dependant is originally on h1b (applied 485 through spouse) and switches to ead, can the dependant get back to h1b incase primary applicants 485 is rejected / held up for a long time?

The amount in terms of $ may not be accurate to measure. 3 Years back it used to be like if you have 80K-85K(40L INR) you can lead a high standard life in India and live happily ever after. But now you cannot even buy a good apartment. The real estate price not only in big cities but even in small cities are soaring like anything. Adding the dollar-Rupee decline, even if you have more than 100K as savings it is like u will have to get loan for most of the things.
loans are not bad things...in fact u get a housing deduction on income tax in india too (thats what i heard recently).
i have heard a lot of ppl say that I wont/dont invest in 401k until i get my gc. I feel that the most ridiculous financial plan that one can have.
here at IV we (meaning members) did a series of spotlight topics like buying a home, investing in 401k, etc. i ll look back and see if i get the links to them.

Not so easy. If you are in US for 5 or more years you are probably on 1 year H1B extensions. Filing PERM will cancel labor (if same employer). Then you cannot renew H1B because labor must have been outstanding for more than 1 year. The only way is to concurrent file a PERM with a new employer and switch only after approved. And yes, then you loose the priority date.
True that you will lose your original case, but if EVERYTHING is the same (the key word is EVERYTHING) in your case, then you can transfer to PERM (i.e. withdraw the original case, and refile in PERM) and still keep your original PD. That way you can continue to be eligible for 1 year extensions. However, I have not done this yet as the interpretation of EVERYTHING being same is up to DOL. So, if they determine that something is different and there fore, the case cannot be transferred, then we will lose the original PD (as the original case would have been withdrawn while we try to transfer to PERM), at which point we will be out of luck.
In its FAQ, DOL has promised to get back with more clarification on the transfer policy from BEC to PERM while retaining original PD, after getting input from all stakeholders. However, in classic DOL fashion, they are taking their own sweet time to clarify this policy further. Until such time, we continue to languish in BEC.

hi guys, i sick and tired and finally decided to get my passport, from consulate and use ap to get to us. i did talk to consulate, they will continue to process my h1b, while i go on ap. my attroney did tell that i can go back to h1b if they process visa and enter on h1b. Only god knows what i am doing, taking risk, without h1b stamping, using AP without i140 approved. I am believer `one who dares, is one who ones ` i am taking risks, wish me luck and good luck to all guys who helped, hope you get your visas and gc. god bless.

You can extend your h1 by 3 years on your 140 approval. I have done same in my case. But i am not sure whether it has to be done by only current employer or any one. I would suggest get it done by your current employer
My current employer HR is saying that h1b can be extended only 6 months before it expires - so not until Apr 2009. Can an extension be filed at the time of h1b transfer if I transfer to contracting company?

Guyz,
Cumon ... we all are trying our best to repair the situation. Murthy, being a lawyer has done whatever she could. Don't praise her for she's done, but at least don't critisize her. Which other law firm has so much 'free' info on their website in the form of Forums, chat sessions, FAQs etc. Obviously every law firm wants to earn money, but she is a dedicated lawyer working sincerely in her profession. She's not doing social service, I agree, but at least she is sincere in her profession.
This is the problem with Indians ... we will never unite.
The Murthy Law Firm cannot participate in filing the lawsuit, since we only practice U.S. immigration law and we are not litigation specialists. AILF will likely work with a litigation law firm that will file the lawsuit with AILF attorneys leading the project.

that is not correct. there are lot of people who applied in Aug (by no means they are earlier than July 2nd filers like me) and still managed to get their green cards. it just boils my blood to even think that this kind of injustice is prevelant and that they dont care about it. what ever those idiots at USCIS do not care.
It did boil my blood too. My RD is 2July07, but my application was entered by TSC in the system in October(in the meantime perhaps they were arguing on who should take this extraordinary load). My online status says "your case was received on Oct 11, 07...), meaning that, as far as TSC is concerned, my case was recieved on 11 Oct '07, so was placed at the tail end (behind all those who cases entered in July, Aug and Sep).
It is not right, but that's how they work. When I noted last year in July-Aug that people with 2005, 2006 were getting cleared, I raised this issue in a conference call with the Ombudsman. I even sent a 'complaint' via Fedex for a quick action. But I got a standard reply after 3 months saying "...your PD is not current..." (as by that time, PD cutoff were retrogressed again). Perhaps noone even read or cared to understand.
