I did a blunder by not renewing my passport and travelled to India in August 2007, while returning to US , CBP officer in Chicago issued my I94 only till the expiration of Passport , which is March 2008 . My VISA was valid till Jan 2010
I tried to argue but no use his quote "You can not stay in this country with expired passport" as if there is definitive rule
Irony is I travelled to Canada in July 2007 and at that time my I94 was issued till Jan 2010 . It depends on the officer .
Moral of the Stroy "Renew your passports as soon as you can"
I went to Chicago airport after renewing my passport to renew my I94 , but the officer bluntly denied and asked me to visit USCIS local office . Again just few months back my friend was able to change his I94 in the same airport , looks like I m not that lucky
I contacted my Lawyer on the situation and he suggested either to apply for I94 extension with CIS or travel to Canada . Applying with CIS with 300$ fee doesnt make much sense to me so I decided to fly to Canada and got my new I94 -- Yahoooo atlast valid till Jan 2010
Again in the Tornoto airport officer offered me to keep the same I94 as I did not leave US for more than 30 days , After few scary moments I requested that I needed the new I94 and explained my situation and got it.

My wife will be on H1(currently on H4) october onwards...we received our EAD's yesterday. Can I still go and apply for SSN? I mean will that mean she is on EAD and H1 no longer valid?
In my case my wife was on H4. She had to activate EAD to begin working. For that reason she applied for a new SSN.
Based on my limited knowledge, if anybody activate's EAD and begins working on that EAD, they'll lose their H status. Experts need to confirm this.
This is based on my limited knowledge. For expert advice, always consult a qualified attorney

My personal situation: I was on F1 visa for 6 years before I started LC process with a company for a totally unrelated to my field of studies position (EB3). We had PERM approved and filed I-140, with me still on F1. I-140 was approved and now we are stuck in retrogression. Meanwhile, and after I-140 was approved, I graduated and applied for H1B based on my major. I have disclosed on H1B application that I have I-140 approved from another company and attached a copy. Not a question asked. H1B was approved within 9 days (cap exempt).
And there's more. Because I violated my F1 status years ago by accepting unauthorized employment (tracable through taxes), my lawer told me to leave the country and re-enter, to cut the tail clean and be eligable for adjustment of status when the quotas open up. I went to Canada, and applied for H1B visa stamp, disclosing on the applicqation that I have I-140 approved and have violated my visa terms previously ("yes" to question 38, in "kiss of death" section of the application). Very stressful time that was. But in the end - no problem, got the stamp and was back in two days.
This makes lot of sense. It does not make sense to have your F1 file and accept I-140, if it violates a USCIS rule.
Nice to know. I thought I-140 required pay checks.

It's hard to believe that US economy will go down if they make some tough rules around H1 B visas or worse cancel H1 B program. I means, we can argue that it might create shortage for skilled works but if US really need some skilled workers, they can get it any time ( Like straight green cards for nurses etc). it�s few trillion dollars economy which won�t go down just because of H1-B visas holders.
It is not that hard to imagine at all.
500K h1b holders having $60K jobs (on average) means $30 billion to the US economy. That is only .002% of US GDP but that is still a *lot* of money.
Remember the Swift meat packing plant raids. They cost Swift $45-50M they claim. That is greater than the wages of the workers rounded up. Probably around double. If IBM started feeling that hurt, they'd be summoning their representatives to their offices.

500,000 Legal immigrants in limbo:
lets say (I mean lets Tell them) 1/5 th of that # buy on an average $300K houses.
That equates to $30 billion.. Not a bad #. But I am sure all want to buy houses eventually. Thats $150 billion. Not a small #.
Lets say (again tell them).
1/100 th of 500,000 start companies, of 5 employees each=25,000 jobs.. Not bad again.
This idea is inline with our IV campaign that was discussed sometime back. We can tell in different forms to the media. Somebody may publish.
There are 304,000 houses in some form of foreclosure in Aug 2008 alone. Of 500,000 legal immigrants there may be actually 250,000 families.
You want to buy properties when it is going down in value? People are walking away from paying mortgages because it doesn't make sense to pay mortgage when the value goes down below what one owes. Are you saying we will save US economy by losing our money?
If economy is going bad, then there is a lot of pressure on US admin to encourage companies to get the job to American citizens so that they can keep paying their mortgages.
There is nothing wrong in trying, just that we may get unwanted attention... People are very angry and worried about losing their jobs...

Dear Friends,
I have an approved I-140 with PD of Mar 06, but i left this company to join a new company. I have tried many times to file PERM through this new company but still unsuccessful. I am waiting to withdraw my PERM appeal to file a new PERM since January 09 (so folks don't ask me to update my profile because i am yet to file PERM, I have updated my profile three times since 2006 and also cleared it).
Question: When i spoke to my company's lawyer regarding my earlier I-140 they say that first i need to get my PERM approval (I agree) and than i need to get my I-140 approval (Which i am not sure) inorder to port priority date, is it true? Can't we port Priority date along with I-140 application itself?
Thanks,
R.

I efiled EAD and AP for my wife and myself over this weekend. My earlier documents had been filed at TSC. In answering Question 11 of EAD, I "assumed" Dallas TX Field office and USCIS TSC are one and the same. So I selected Dallas TX Field office as the answer.
When the receipts were generated for our applications they were generated for National Benefits Center with MSC as the prefix. This got me confused and I asked this question (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=19323) on IV. This evening to research what is going on I started a dummy application and saw what I had done wrong. I canceled the dummy application.
I am writing this to alert anyone to not do the same mistake. I am mighty concerned. I will call USCIS tomorrow morning and ask on what will happen and where should I send me supporting documents. I will also get hold of some local attorney.
In the mean time what do you guys think of our situation. Any experiences, ideas? Please share. This will be long night :-|
hi mirchiseth, I recently applied AP to wrong location. I guess some one had the same situation while back. Do you remember how did that fixed.
Basically my case is pending at texas, but i wrongly sected missory and so my receipt number says MSC, that is what i realized that it was efiled to wrong location. Any help in this would be appreciated.
I also took infopass appointment to check, i am not sure if i get help with out getting the confirmation receipt as i efiled yesterday.

Situation:
H1b valid until 2010, visa stamp expired.
AP available
Not recieved EAD yet
Can you we go on a cruise to Bahamas?
Also do Indian citizens need visa to Bahamas cruise?
Thanks in advance
Getting visa to go on cruise to Bahamas is not a big issue. People go in bunches to watch cricket matches when they play it in West Indies.
A travel agent will be able to answer your question.
Transit visas in Eurpoean countries is a pain and wierd rules and complex rules that very is something that gets discussed in these forums.
But, nevertheless, you may get an answer here.
Do please consider contributing now as we are running a funding drive

RFE is about company asking about the company payrolls, number of employees, Taxes filed for the last 3 years, Company location, my company to client relation etc etc.
It seems that you company has had some past/present issues with INS/USCIS. The RFE is comprehensive enough to cover entire employer history and it appears that USCIS has termed your employer as "staffing company" (that is reason for client contract).
It does not look like good time for your employer. Unfortunately, it is the employees who are hardest hit due to employer's karma.
Contact a good attorney ASAP.
I repeat, Contact a good attorney ASAP.

If you are not married before GC, you are in a crappy situation. If you marry you will have to deal with lots of mental misery, distance, stress etc. Not worth the pain. You can look at this option - after GC, you are allowed to stay outside the country for a max of 1 year without a permit and 2 years with a permit, without affecting your GC status. The flip side is your citizenship is delayed and you are similarly delayed in sponsoring your spouse. Also, it is not a good idea to stay out more than 6 months at a stretch in any calender year so that your citizenship is not affected. Maybe it would be a good idea to join lobbying efforts to allow sponsorship of immidiate family of GC holders. Lots of people are in this situation. Without a GC your professional life is screwed and with a GC your family life. Good Luck.

Congrats!
You are better off finding someone here, unless ofcourse you have plans to marry someone you already know :)
By the way, what is your PD, RD, ND Service Center, etc.?
Got the status update email from USCIS stating a card has been issued for my 485 application.
I am not married yet. What are the implications if I get married to a citizen of india residing in India.
Kindly refer me to appropriate material if you know of any.
Thanks,
Akshay

Try EB3. Don't spend time and money for EB2 with 3 year degree.
It is waste. You will learn this in a hard way.
Gurus,
Sorry for not mentioning in my first post earlier... Just now I received a copy of the Letter which my company received from the USCIS. It is mentioned as "NOTICE OF INTENT TO DENY (NOID)".
Reasons:
- Section 203(b)(2)(A) of the Act states
- 8 C.F.R 204.5(I)(3)(ii)(C)
These are related to the Education for 3 yrs degree..
- What is the next step ?
- What is the chance of a positive result?
Thank you,
Regds,
Raju

Yes. 2001 to 2002 was the worst period as far as job market goes. I know, a lot of my friends left the country and went back to India. I was without a job for 5 months in 2001. Luckily, I had a secure job during 9/11 and afterwards. But, if 2008 is going to be anything like 2001-02, everyone should start preparing for it. Most of the members in IV might have an option to port their jobs, thanks to AC21. But, there are so many unlucky people who will have a tough time. From my past experiences and based on the current market, I think, banking is and will be the worst hit sector. Food Products, Medical, Insurance industries should be ok.
I had a lunch meeting with the President of my consulting Company.(This is an american company). She met with a few CIO's and gave us their view points. Most of these CIO's are going to budget for new projects and products for this fiscal year and beyond. But, they said, they will be cautious in actually using the budget so early in the year.
My personal opinion, If anyone is planning to use AC21 to port jobs, please do so carefully. If you already have a stable job, it would be best to hold on to it, instead of looking for better pay at this time.
Good luck to everyone in this economy.
