I have a question regarding my spouse who is on H4 visa.One of the company did H1b processing through "CONSULAR PROCESSING". Her H1B is approved now.
1) She is ready to work from Oct 1st as she got some project.Her employer said that they have to apply for amendment(COS) to get I94. Is this right?
The company either has to file a COS or she needs to leave the US and re-enter in H-1B status.
2) How many weeks will it take under premium processing to get new I94
15 calendar days for CIS to make a decision
3) Do they have to apply only after Oct 1.
No. Since she is already counted towards the cap, they can apply now but the start date will be 10/1 or later.
4) Are there any chances of getting rejected at this stage.
There's always a chance of a denial, but the risk is low if she is maintaining H-4 status when the COS is filed.

Dear All,
I got a labor substitution and filed for my I-140 and I-485 concurrently. Today was the last day to send the documents and some paperwork was missing for my wife! I missed sending the package!
Now how should i proceed?? My wife is on H1-B currently. Any ideas??
My priority date is 25 jan 05 - eb2.
Thanks,
KK.
If you missed this time around, you can apply 485 for your wife only when your PD becomes current. Your wife will have to continue working on her H-1B since EAD isn't an option anymore.
Just curious: what paperwork was missing as a result of which you missed this boat? I hope it wasn't trivial in the grand scheme of things.
Thanks,
Jayant

They should exempt PIOs from this new rules. If back from a vacation and there was an emergency back home ( within 60/90 days?), can't i take my US citizen kid to India ?
Its only for tourist visas. Take PIO card for your kid.

I have changed jobs using EAD after 1.5 years of filing I-485. Can I file for a new Eb-2 case with my new employer and port the priority date of my EB-3 case ? Thanks.
Sure you can, as long as your new job requires a Masters or Bachelors + 5 yrs of experience and your employer is willing to start the process, you can do it. Being on EAD or H1 doesn't stop you from porting your PD.

I e-filed EAD renewal. On the I-797 Notice of Action that they mailed me, the "Priority Date" field is blank. The same is true for my last EAD notice of action as well which I did not check last time. Is it normally blank?
Is anybody else in the same boat?
I checked my receipt notice. PD is blank. I checked with a friend of mine and his receipt notice PD is blank too.
BTW mine is paper based filing.

Can someone please guide me in right direction. We have received a RFE on my wife's 485 petition. Officer has directed to submit all the stamped pages of passports. All approved visas and all I-94 copies ever since she has been here (about 8 years). My wife went to India earlier 2-3 times and got the visa stamped there based on my H1B. We never applied for H4 until last(recent) 3 years and hence have no copies of I-94 with us. Will it be a big problem. Has someone faced the same RFE any help will be appreciated.
She has always been on H4. When she first came to us we got it stamped in india based on my H1B and similarly when she went back to india 1 yr. down the line, we had it stamped based my renewed H1B again. but i do not happen to have copy of her I-94 from her those two entries to us. since we never file a H4 petition for her in us i do not have any visa copy either.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Frankly I don't know why people think that IT folks cannot qualify for EB2. Inspite of all changes done by DOL, people with 4yr degree + 5 years of exp. can qualify for EB2. If the company can make a good business case and can prove that there are other people (Permanent Residents/ Citizens) in the organization with 4yr degree + 5 years of exp. for same/ similar position, there should not be any issue for the getting an EB2 approved. As far as my knowledge goes, the requirements are set forth in law - that is not something that USCIS can change over night.
True - it might become more difficult to get approval for such cases, but that does not mean that IT folks cannot qualify for EB2.
Just my 2cents.

thx for ur inputs newbie2020. yes, i know that it is a conditional GC to start with.
my concern was - as far as i know, i cannot work actively for my own business on H-1B. hence i wanted to know if i could continue working on H-1B, apply for GC under EB-5 and then start the business after getting it.
attorneys, do u hv anything to add to what newbie2020 has said?

Dear IV Members,
For those of us who have followed the immigration debate for last couple of years, we know that Stuart Anderson is one of the few sane voices when it comes to high skilled immigration.
Stuart has recently published a complete book on Immigration and how it applies to business and economics. The book also covers important background and relevant history of the Immigration bills, key players and how the events around us affect us all. Here is the link to the recently published must read book by Stuart -

You can retain your PD if your employer does not repeal your existing Labor Certification. In other words as long as your Labor is not cancelled you can apply in EB2 and get the labor approved (typically takes 3-5 months in PERM depending on how fast your Attorney is).
In fact, I am in the same boat, just waiting for my EB3 Labor to be approved.. I am a Manager + I also have Master's .. so, I'll also be doing the same.. Pls do share your experiences how the transfer is working..

Cloning sometimes leaves weird patterns. I've had luck putting a loose selection around the cloned area with a big feathered edge, then applying a gaussian blur. It helps "clean up" my new background. The trick is to have a seemless blend between the cloned and the original untouched areas.
Fred
That's a good tip, I'll try that.
Something else I've done is to use several clone stamps with the opacity of the stamp set quite low. What this does is sort of blend in noise to soften up the edges of the clone patterns.

Hello,
As was discussed in the past on this forum, USC may have meant something for 20th century, but in 21st, USC does not offer any preferential advantage over other passports (unless you hold passport of problem childs like Iran, Sudan, Cuba etc).
At the end of day, its a personal choice, so let people be happy with whatever citizenship they choose... :)
