Hi,
I have my EAD. Once I pass the 180 day limit for AC21 portability, can I move to a different state and a different job ? (provided salary and job specifications match )
Thanks,
Sam
Be careful if your I-140 is pending. This issue has been discussed in several threads...

I believe they would process the application within 15 days. It doesnt necessarily have to be an approval or denial, they can even send a RFE.
Once you respond to the RFE, its not necessary that they have to process your case with in 15 days.

Dear Attorney,
Is there any minimum length of time to be on H4 before applying to H1.
Thanks
No minimum length of time, but i would wait for 90 days just to make sure that the USCIS does not say that you had an intent to change to H-1 when you entered the country and therefore you should have entered on a H-1b. Very remote possibility for them to determine that your entry into the country was based on wrongful intent. I would wait for 60 to 90 days to overcome this problem.

I need a little advice on sponspring my uncle vistor's visa from India
My uncle works in auto industry and I would like to nspor him for a vistor visa. His family will not be visting and he is taking care of his in-laws as well.
Does including his family members make any difference?
Also, having a different family name makes any difference in the sponsor's letter?
Any help is appreciated.
You can send a sponsorship letter along with other supporting documents like I-134, bank statements and etc. Ultimately, your uncle has to prove and convince the consular officer that he has strong ties in India in order for him to obtain the visa.

Hi,
I am looking to switch employers. Although the job descriptions are pretty similar ( C coding, design, protocols etc.), my PERM was filed for Computer Software Engineer-Applications whereas the new one falls under Computer Software Engineer, Systems Software. Is this a risk during I-485 adjudication. Also my new salary is 50% higher than my original PERM salary (It has been almost 4 years since my original PERM).
Thanks.
Descriptions look similar but what you need to check is the SOC code are a close match or not. That is important. Regarding the salary difference taking inflation into account and salary hikes ove the 4 ye4ar speriod you should not have any problem. Check this below link for AC21.

What if the house democrats become so pissed off and block the vote in the house?
The House operates very differently from the Senate. If Republicans in the House are behind a bill the Democrats in that chamber are powerless to block it.

Can somebody please throw some light on this issue.
I have an approved H1extn till 2013 but I had moved to the new location and new project since then but I don't have a new LCA. And now when I'm planing to go to india and appear for visa stamping I don't have the new LCA for my current location.
When I asked my lawyer, she said that I need to apply for fresh H1 extn. This doesn't make sense to me, Can I only get new LCA for my new project location ?
Do I need to get my H1B amended with this change ?
Please help me on this ...
Waiting to hear back ASAP.
Thanks in advance

Hi- My stamping on my passport expired on Sep'2008 (over 19 months now). But, my I-797 is valid till Aug'2012. I plan to get my visa re-stamping done when I go to India in May'10.
1. Will there be any issues?
2. What am I supposed to say for this question in the visa application website?
"Are you applying for the same class of visa which is currently valid or has expired within the past 12 months?*" (YES/NO)
The VFS website says the following:
"The following applicants do NOT qualify for appointments in the visa renewal category:
Applicants who have a U.S. visa that expired more than 12 months ago.
"
Thanks.

You need to consider all possiblities
1) Best case scenario: Your H1 gets approved before Oct in that case no need to do anything
2) H1 does not get approved by Oct 31 & No h4 applied then I am not sure if you are in status or not
3) If you apply for H4 and then you have H1 approval and subsequently H4 approval. In that case least you are in status but you will have to go out of country and get H1 stamped to remain on H1 status.
I would recommend option 3 as that is safest option though it involves money and stamping hassale it is worth it.

This was the first time I called up the USCIS help desk (1-800-375-5283) to find about AC21 180 days rule, when she asked what is this for I informed for change of employer.
I would like to know if that statement would be noted and would it create me any problems in future, as of now I don�t have any plans to change employer.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
My Case Details:
PD: EB2- 2006.
I-140 Cleared.
EAD: Received.
FP: Completed
Yes, they would record your call but I dont see it creating any problems in the future as long as you satisfy the AC21 conditions if/when you change jobs.

There is not anything like withdrawing AC 21. It was to show that you worked in a different company with similar job description.
The question is, did you send a letter to say you are changing jobs using AC 21?
If you did not send the letter, then you really do not need to do anything. Just join your original sponsor. If there is an RFE, you can always prove that you worked in a similar job category.

Hi Everybody,
I am an Indian and I have been living in USA for more than one year.Right now I am on F2 visa(dependent of F1 visa holder). Recently I got my I-20 and Now I will have to get F1 visa in order to register for classes. I don't have enough time to get my status changed from USA.Please can somebody tell me what will be the procedure of getting visa from Mexico or Canada? And how long this procedure takes ?
Please somebody guide me ...I am really in hurry..
It will be very risky and very likely your visa will be denied (and you will not be able to reenter US), especially because it is the first visa and not an extension. F-1 applicant's must overcome presupposition of immigration intent, especially the first time. In your case (applying from Canada/mexico; spouse already in US), you will have a hard time to convince the IO that you do not intend to immigrate to US.
Note that H1-B does not have that problem: it is a dual intent visa.
I do have a friend who successfully got his F-1 extended from London. But he was a late stage Ph.D. student from a very well known school, fully funded by assistantship, working on a very hot topic and single.

I had a opt which expired on the 9th. of november and on June 08 i applied to start green card process with help of a lawyer.I have a master degrees from the US and my lawyer told me that i did not need to apply for a H1 visa or a work permit and could directly go for green card. we started the process in June 08 and I applied to eta 9089 on September 08 and could not get any reply back for almost 5 months. My lawyer tells me that it is normal to not get an answer for so long even thought I think we had to get an answer in 3 to 4 weeks after September. Now, my lawyer suggests me to go back to my country as my status will be put of status and I could continue my green card process from back home.
I would like to know if my lawyer is telling me the truth or my lawyer made any mistake..
I need help!!!
You are out of status since Jan 7th. (Nov 9 + 60 days)
Who filed for ETA-9089, Application for Permanent Employment Certification? Typically it is the Employer. I guess, you are EB-2/EB-1 and RoW, since only in that case one file for I-140/I-1485 and can jump from OPT to AOS.
In my opinion, your lawyer took very aggressive approach and should have had Plan B.
Good Luck.

your ideas are helpful
Every year of education = 2 years of work experience. In your case it should be:

Bachelors with 6 years of relevant work experience. Atleast thats what I remember from my EB2 PERM application.

I got approved email within 2 weeks but still waiting for the actual forms.. Just write Expedite on the top of the cover. Again, it depends on the Immigration officer.
Dear Friends:
(1) Is there a certain number of years for which an advanced parole given by the USCIS? Or, does it depend on what the applicant is writing, for ex, "I am planning a trip to XXX in between July 1, 2009 through 30 December 2010," and the parole is given on that many years of request?
(2) Also, once an advanced parole expires, should the applicant re-apply it continuosly until he/she receives his/her green card? In case of renewal, should the applicant apply for renewal before a certain number of months before the AP expires.
Thanks for answering, friends. This process is so confusing.

Hi I'm a Moroccan citizen I was placed in removal proceedings (NY Buffalo) and took voluntary departure. once my wife's divorce was finalized we got married while on voluntary departure. we filed motion to reopen the case and it was reopened and transferred to Los Angeles, CA then the judge closed my case based on marriage with an I130 receipt without prejudice. The I130 was filed on june 2009 and was transferred to Los Angeles on November 12, 2009. I made an appointment with Info Pass but they just said you have to wait untill we call you. My lawyer said I can't file for the I485 untill the I130 is approved. My question is: How long will it take before we will be called for an interview?
An estimation will be much appreciated thank you very much.
