Here is my situation: I was on my 6th year of the h1b visa (I had about 3 months left of valid visa) when I left the country in January 2010 to live abroad...In August 2010 I came back to the US on a tourist visa and I applied to get the 3 months I had left on my H1b in November.
After waiting for over 4 months, I received the approval notice from immigration for the h1b valid only for 1 day!! (4/20/11-4/21/11)...I received the approval notice on the mail on 4/23, 2 days after the visa was valid...so basically, by the time I received the notice in the mail, I was already out of status.
If I apply for an extension this week, do you think that they will approve my 7th year extension or they might deny it based on the fact that I applied after my H1b visa expired? If they deny it, what are my options to stay in the country?
To get the 7th year extension you need to have the approved PERM or pending for over 365 days or approved I-140.
If you dont have anything...they wont approve.

A friend of mine who has a bachelor's degree from India applied for her labor through PERM under EB2 category, which was approved. This was done based on the attorney's advice. Later, when the I-140 was to be submitted, the attorney advised that they should file I-140 under EB3 as the employee just had a bachelor's degree and he thought that they would get an RFE or will not probably be able to justify her qualifications for an EB2 category. At that time he also mentioned that, once the I-140 was approved, they could go ahead and submit I-485 application as though it was an EB2 case based on the approved labor. Now that I-140 is approved under EB3 category, he is going back on his words and telling that since I-140 was approved under EB3 category, they should file I-485 as though it is an EB3 application. There is a vast difference in priority dates between EB2 & EB3 categories and this is not helping the problem. Would it be okay to apply I-485 under EB2 category based on the approved labor (EB2) or should one apply I-485 under EB3 based on the approved I-140 (EB3)? Anyone who has had any experience or has any information in this regard, please advise. Or did the attorney mess up first time and he is finding an easy way to fix the problem by going the EB3 route? I sometimes wonder if these attornies really know what they are talking about or they just out there to make money at the expense of innocent people like us.

Yes, PR visa is not extendable....Also, you dont have to apply for any PR card when you go to Canada. When you enter Canada, you will automatically be a PR starting that day and the PR will be mailed to the Canadian address you provide at the airport....Its your choice to apply for a SIN card (US equivalent of SSN card)...For this you will have to go to the nearest office to do so. Usually the landing procedure takes 2 to 3 hrs...You can return the same day...PR card is issued for 5 yrs from the date of your landing and you can stay 3 yrs out of Canada...To maintain PR status, you will have to be physically present in Canada for atleast 2 yrs..Hope it works out for you.....

From the below FAQ2 just release by USCIS
Q21: Will USCIS permit applicants who filed adjustment applications between July 2, 2007 � July 17, 2007, but who have not yet received a USCIS generated receipt notice, to file for Advance Parole and Employment Authorization based on proof of delivery of the I-485 application?
A21. Yes.
Does this apply only for ppl who have filed between July 2nd and July 17th.?? How about for people who have filed & filing between July 17th thru Aug 17th? Wud the same rule applies to them too? Any inputs on this?
Many of the law-firms including mine are just filing 485 not EAD & AP. If this rule is for everyone I'll apply EAD and AP myself after I receive proof of delivery from my attorney.

My Employer is not paying me salary even I am on Project.
can any one please tell me that how to report to DOL about this company.
AGT
You will have to file the WH-4 form to DOL. Please do the search in this forum/internet as this has been discussed many many times.
USCIS is cracking down on employers. Whether you are on project or not. Doesn't matter. Employer has to pay you or lay you off and provide ticket back home.
Once you file WH-4, ball is in the court of USCIS/DOL/Employer for unpaid wages.

While eating dinner last night, I noticed a pitcher and glasses set in our china cabinet and decided to try a studio shot. I used one of my wife's black dresses, hung from the light fixture over our dining room table, as a backdrop. The glasses are sitting on a lens and various bowls and cups to raise them to the levels I wanted. I used white poster board on either side to reflect some light. Light source is a single flash unit bounced off of the ceiling. Thoughts on what I could do to make the shot better, aside from spending $2,000 to buy studio lighting equipment?
Thanks,
Gary

Most of people file taxes jointly and so I am wondering if it becomes an issue for spouse on H4 about false info on income.
If your wife is on H4 she has no income hence she qualifies for free medicaid insurance. provided you fill out the forms the right way.
And there is a seperate Health insurance sponsored by government for kids below 18 years. based on your wife's Medicaid, your child can qualify for that insurance in your state.
You might need to buy insurance for you.

How early can we apply for EAD before it expires? I know it is either of these: 180 days, 120 days or 90days ?
Does someone know the exact days?
Thanks
You dont have to answer that question. They have all your records, just provide your A# and they will find out.
I chose to answer the questions with * only which are required fields.

I would go with the FAQ released on July 23 (since it is the latest) instead of the Direct Filing update released on June 21.
Where was your I-140 applied (if it is not concurrent with 485)?
Also, Q6 says the following:
Q6: What happens if an application is filed at the wrong Service Center?
A6. Forms I-485 should be filed at either the Texas or Nebraska Service Centers. However, through August 17, 2007 only, employment-based adjustment applications filed at the California and Vermont Service Centers will not be rejected and will be relocated to the appropriate Service Center.
Do NOT split hairs! You are okay!
P.S.: BTW, are you working for Cognizant?

Your visa will be stamped for the required period - IRRESPECTIVE of your Passport expiry (the only condition being that your passport should be valid for the next 6 months).
Upon expiry of your passort - you can travel with your renewed (or new booklet passport), though your US Visa remains in the old passport.
You will need to carry BOTH your old passport (with the US Visa) and the new one, anytime you travel in and out of the US.
Hi Friends,
Please read the below query and post any information you have. Thanks in advance for your help !
I have an appointment for H1 VISA re-stamping in Toronto, Canada in 2nd week of October
My current H1 VISA is valid until Nov 2006.
I am planning to get restmped based on my new H1 petition valid until Sep 2008.
The problem here is that my passport is valid only until Dec 2007.
In this case Can I get the new VISA stamped until Sep 2008?
On the website it says that "To be eligible for a VISA, you passport must be valid for at least 6 months past intended stay in the United States"
Please post your valuable replies.
Regards,
Krishna.

I'm in CA and my I-140 was approved by TSC (E-filing) and I-485 is pending at TSC (was filed at NSC initially).
here are my questions, I need help on...
1. If I file EAD now, where should I file?? TSC or NSC?
2. If its NSC (since I'm live in CA), will this filing trigger transfer of case from TSC to NSC??
who wants to be mess with NSC :)
Thanks,

Hey arnet! I am having the same problem. I filed for EAD renewal and then I got my card the other day, but problem is they gave me the same expiration date w/c is Jan. 2007. I called the 1-800# 4 times the day after I got my new card to let them know of the error. I never felt so disappointed and frustrated in my whole life! The first 3 representative I spoke could not tell me anything but "sorry we can't do anything about that". One of them even told me to go to the USCIS where I had my biometrics taken.. and that was 5 hours drive from where I live. I was so pissed. Then I tried to call again that same day just to see if there's anyone in their customer service who has some sense to tell me. And luckily a lady answered and she told me to fill out another I-767 form and send it to the service center who approved my case without the filing fee. That is if it's their fault, they're going to waive the fee.
The only thing that gets to me is, we put our trust in these people to do their part.. because we do. We pay our taxes, we pay for all these filing fees, we do not violate their country.. we're just here to work. Yet after all the waiting that we do, all the hoping, all the sacrifices..this is all we get. A MISTAKE on our IDs.
I filled out a new EAD application, made copies of all the notices I received from them regarding this application...and I even wrote a damn letter just to explain what happened. I'm in so much pressure right now because I need to have my new card as soon as possible... I am due for renewal of my driver's license. If I can't have that card by the end of this year, I am doomed! I will lose my license and my job. Thanks to them! :mad:

Hello,Our organization is limited to issues with employment based immigration. your friends case seems like a Family based Case and we do not have the right people to help you with your friends situation.
IV'ans - Please refrain from any suggestions towards this
though I can understand the advice ..I don't understand the reasoning ..an immigrant is an immigrant whether it is family or employment ..I would think that IV should try to increase its reach and not become an exclusive club...
Rique ..as far as I can think ..it is a very personal decision ..so it is difficult to give any advice ..maybe a lawyer can help. ofcourse the final decision would have to be taken by your friend.

If you havent already seen threads here about how bad the desi employers here in US can be, companies like Satyam, Infosys who are based in India have even worst reputation..they pay indian salaries and expect round the clock work including weekends..and ofcourse no pay..working at McDonalds is probably a better option than these companies...
I had a very bad experience working for one of those companies and many more friends had similar experience.
You are absolutely right my friend. And its certainly a better option to work at McDonalds :)
