better pray for the CIR to be passed first.
then get a comfortable chair and wait for the 20+ millions illegals to get ahead of you in the queue
This is not 100% true. However, they will have some effect!
does anyone know when they will discuss it - in the house and in the senate?
Senate: last 2 weeks of May.

I am posting this on behalf of my cousin who is stuck in India pending stamping. He went to Mumbai consulate for H1 B stamping on Apr 29th. He was asked for further evidence about his employer and his employer's payroll details for all employees etc. After much confusion created by the consulate, the details were provided by his employer and by him (sealed copies) as well. He has visited the consulate 3 times and VFS office couple of times and was told your passport will be returned in couple of days but till date he has not received it.
He also has his AOS application pending with USCIS with his wife as the primary applicant. He has a valid EAD card and AP (which needs renewal). It's been a really long time he had to spend away from his family. He has certain questions he would like to get clarified,
1. How long can it take for 221g pending case to clear? I have submitted my passport to consulate on 10th Jun.
2. Can I write consulate a hand written mail (not an email) asking for passport saying that I want to travel on travel doc as I'm away from my wife for 8,9 months.
3. Can I ask consulate to return my passport without H1 stamping for renewal of Travel Document (AP)?
4. Can I travel on my travel doc (AP) after asking my passport back without any problem at the port of entry?
5. After asking for my passport back will it affect the renewal of my travel document (AP)?
Thanks a lot!

If after joining the H1b employer he has travelled out of the country, got the H1 stamping done and then returned to US then he is ok. It is the last admittance that counts . He should be maintaining his status legally since his last entry in US which is more important. Nothing to worry about.

I see a lot of members being more passive.
What we would like to do is, if you an idea we are willing to listen. Before that, we would also like to share in this "Meet & Greet" event what IV has done so far and its accomplishments.
Lot of members proably look at IV as a forum where just threads are being created to discuss their problems.
But IV is not a just a web-site. IV has more out-reaching efforts to resolve the problem of backlog of employment-based green cards.
If you are from Long Island and you feel you would like to do something to resolve this immigration crisis, align yourself in this thread.
I hope more smaller "meet & greet" is the only way to lead ourselves to the "BIG RALLY" / "BIG INTIATIVE" what everyone wants. Without grassroots effort, a RALLY or any other BIG INITIATIVE is not going to happen.
We can only look at EADs for two years or Advance Parole cards come in package with the EAD without grassroot efforts. But if you want to bypass all these smaller incentives and look at the end result of getting your green cards, join your state chapters.

I did it online on 3/21/09 and got approved for me and my wife on 3/31/09. 10 days total turn around! I was amazed to see USCIS's efficiency on cases filed online. I heard the opposite that if you file online it was taking long time. Mine was at NSC

H1 has been approved for 2009 quota for a client A. it is almost one and half year and the visa stamping has not been done. The client A is no more interested and a new Client B is interested to offer the same position in a different location or at H1 petitioning employers location. The LCA has been filed for the Client B and may get approved in next couple of days. Is that okay to use this new client letter while going for H1B Visa stamping? This new client is not the one on whom the actual H1B petition is approved.
Question is When going for H1 B visa is it necessary to use the client letter that has been used when applying for H1B approval. Can the clients be different while going for Visa Stamping?
This is urgent as the visa stamping appointment is in a few days. And the attorneys suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Shouldn't be an issue. Make sure you carry documents showing evidence that you have been working for Client A and recently switched to Client B.

San Diego Restaurant, The French Gourmet Inc., indicted recently for knowingly making false attestations on I-9 Forms, hiring employees unauthorized to work in the U.S., and employing those aliens after learning of their ineligibility to work. U.S. v. The French Gourmet Inc. is the case, and you can read it here:
French gourmet compalint (http://www.slideshare.net/usvisalaw/french-gourmet-compalint)View more documents (http://www.slideshare.net/) from usvisalaw (http://www.slideshare.net/usvisalaw).
In May 2008, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents executed a criminal search warrant at, The French Gourmet, and have taken workers suspected of being illegally in the country into custody. ICE has arrived at worksites with both criminal and civil warrants. It has searched businesses, frozen bank accounts, and arrested not only employees but also employers. This recent indicment sends a clear message to employers.
We keep reminding employers to ensure compliance with the I-9 requirements under IRCA, a company should establish an I-9 policy that includes:
* The proper and timely completion and retention of Form I-9 for all employees hired after November 6, 1986;
* Zero-tolerance for the employment of individuals who do not provide the proper identity and employment eligibility documents for Form I-9;
* A tickler system for I-9s that require reverification;
* I-9 training for all company representatives who are part of the recruitment, orientation, and hiring processes for the company; and
* Regularly scheduled in-house I-9 audits.
Conducting self-audits puts a company in better position if it becomes the subject of an ICE investigation. While employers cannot verify whether documents used for employment authorization are authentic, self-audits establish good-faith compliance.

Thanks

Hi Gurus,
Please advise me regarding my situation
My current H1B expires May 1s1 and I have my H1B extension pending (in lieu of GC pending with the same company, and EAD is not an option for me because of dependents) with a fortune 500 company A, with whom I am employed. They plan to do a round of layoffs in a couple of weeks that I am sure my team is a part of.
With the foreknowledge of pending situation, please let me know if I can validly take the following course of action.
I am thinking that I premium process my 3 year H1extension with company A right away, then have it transferred to company B. Only problem is extension starts in a future date, ie May 1st.
Can I get my current+extended H1B transferred to company B even before the start date of extended May1st . If I have to wait till May1st to get it transferred, does it matter that on May 1st I am not with company A anymore.

Hi,
My 6 year H1B ends on April 17/2011 with Company A. Company A applied for my PERM on 15th Jan 2010.
Now I am planning to switch a company B(my interview is next week and I think I will clear that interview) to a Permanent JOB. If I get through that Company B. How soon they have to apply for my H1B transfer?
If company B apply PERM on June 2010(due to company B policy), is their any issue to get 7th yr of extension on June 2010 PERM? Or is it possible to apply for 7th year of extension Company A PERM application.
Please respond with your suggestions.
Thanks a lot in advance!

I was in the similar situation. i.e. My Labor was applied after I was in 6th year of H1-B. My lawyer told me that I won't be able to get 1 year H1-B extension based on the PERM because PERM had to be filed before 6th year of H1-B period (i.e. at least 1 year before H1-B term is over).
My lawyer suggested that in case the PERM is not approved in short period of time, he might have to send me abroad (outside US) for certain period of time since the period spend outside US does not count towards H1-B tenure. So basically if your PERM is filed on 01 June 2010, then you might have to spend "X" number of days (counting from April 17,2010 through 01 June 2010) outside US to be able to apply for 7th year H1-B extension based on pending PERM application.
I my case, things turned out in my favor and I was lucky to get PERM approved in 3 months and then I-140 approved in a week. I was able to get 3 year H1-B extension.
Please work with a lawyer and he would suggest you a way around. Its worth it to spend some money and get consultation from a expert lawyer on this matter. Good Luck with you new job.

Hi Gurus,
Here is my situation. Have H1B expiring on June 2008. Planning to Renew. I-140 approved last Month. I485 applied and pending for more than 180 days. Have EAD, AP.
Now - I am planning to switch to another job for Title , Hike. Not happy with the current company.
I have the following question :
1) If I switch,what will happen to my I-485 / I-140. do I need to reapply ? . do I lost my priority date.
2) If I go to India, what will happen to My 485/140. Can I change AOS to consular processing.
Please advise.
1. Use Ac21
2. Are you going to India for a visit or long time? you need to come before ur AP expires and get a new one(If H1 is not valid)
Otherwise you can take a vacation on H1.
For Cp you have to withdraw your 485 application and refile your application.

The passage of the CIR in the Senate is reportedly almost assured. The question remains how much change we will see in the Senate's final bill. One of the agreements which the leaders of Republican and Democrat Senators reached as part of the deal involves the procedural matter that will allow "amendments" on the floor to the CIR proposal which the Senate almost passed when the Senators left for the Easter break in April, 2006. It is thus likely that there may be introduced a flurry of amendments on the floor and a fierce battle on these amendments. Accordingly, the liberal version of the Senate proposal may be substantially compromised before it is enacted into a law this year. We will see the first compromise in the Senate this month before the Senate passes its bill. The second compromise will take place during the Senate-House Conference Committee proceeding after May 2006. It is thus almost certain that the current CIR proposal in the Senate may be substantially toned down and compromised to accomodate the hawkish conservative Senators and members of the House.
Considering the fact that the Senate will procedurally open opportunities for the Senators to introduce amendments on the floor beginning from next week, this may be the last chance for the pro and con lobbysts to make their voices heard and reflected in the Senate's final bill. Such opportunity will include both legal and illegal immigration legislation in the CIR packet.
May be it's time for us(IV) to lobby Senators to incorporate IV Goals into Final CIR bill!
