Hi everyone,
Does anyone have experience with expedited H1-B filing? The one that you are supposed to receive the answer in 15 days. I am just wondering if it really works and if it is possible to hurt your petition by filing expedited?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi,
I have applied for I-140,I-485 and I-765 on 16th of Aug'07,dint get the receipt yet. I would be leaving to India this month and would return only in Feb'08.
My major concerns are:
1. once I get the notice for FingerPrints, can I reschedule it to Feb'08.
Is it advisable.
OR
2. Do I have an option of getting my FingerPrint done at any consulate in India.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Option 1
I am not sure that you would be allowed to do finger printing at American consulate in India.

Hi guys,
Some of may think "Wait for the actual letter to come" but I feel too nervous and just want to share my thoughts. I applied for EB5 and my I526 was approved. Then I applied adjustment of status and got an I485 RFE. Have not got the letter yet but got the email that my case is on hold right now. Can you tell me about the RFE? Is that common? Is that the first step of denial? I'm so nervous right now. I will write what they are asking when I got the letter which I'm expecting on Tuesday or Wednesday. Thank you very much.

I came across this one very interesting read on how the Visa cutoff dates are established...
http://judiciary.house.gov/media/pdfs/Oppenheim070606.pdf
I had a similar question -- how does processing dates work ? for eg - texas processing dates shows -- the date to be june/2007.
say for EB3 the visa date is nov 2001 and if a person X with a pd of mar/2003 applies for his 485 on july 2007 ...will his case be processed ??
(In other words - will they even touch his file or will they wait for the visa dates to become current before touching the file ??)

Hello,
Assuming a 40 hr/week position, a person works 2080 hours per year. The Annual Salary for a $46/hr position is $95680/year.
Also, if you only have annual salary for the new position, you could convert to hourly by dividing by 2080.
But I wouldn't even worry about all this. Just send in the annual salary figure (just for your own satisfaction make sure it is more than $46 per hour) and USCIS will figure out the rest.
Hope that helps.
Actually if you factor in 10-12 holidays and about 20 VC days it will come to roughly 1824 hours a year or roughly 152hr/month avg.

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.

What is the phone number to contact the customer representative?
Pls guide.

They will go to ur michigan address i guess.
Online u can change the address for each receipt number of ead ,485 and ap using ar-11 form online link. or u can also call custom rep also to make sure it is reflected.FP notice they will send a copy to ur lawyer .So ask him to let you know once he gets it. sending ar-11 form itself does not change the address against the recipt numbers.

I planning to use AC 21 from Next week, I plan to call my parents in July 2008, What should I mention as my Immigration Status in Invitation letter.
As I will not be on H1B and neither I have Green Card ?
Mention you are in I-485 adjustment status. Thats the truth...good luck.

Switch from Adjustment of Status (AOS) to Consular Processing. The caveat is you lose your EAD and will have to wait for your PD to be current before you can work in the US again. Unless you get a new H1 and want to start over!

Hi
i was working with employer A (h1b tenure 2006---september 30 2009)...I applied for my extension and also transfer of h1b to company B..got h1b extension sucessfully from 09-2009 to 08/2012...
both the companies A and B are operated by same person..
I went for H1B stamping in november 2009 at Canada ottawa...in the mean time my employer has same adress for company A and company B..My employer has provided me a letter stating that company B has merged with company A so they have same address
The visa officer has found out that they share the same adress and questioned me what is the point of H1B transfer when they share the same adress and both the companies are merged and he refused my h1b visa..
My employer sugessted me to attend again the interview at the newdelhi consulate ..he has provided me the business license ,office land purchase documents and companies merging document...which i have submited to newdelhi consulate..
after 3 months the new delhi consulate sends me a visa denial letter
stating that
we are not able to issue you a visa because:
your petitioner doesnot either be able to provide qualified employment in USA
I129 petition filed on your behlaf has been submitted to USCIS...
My original I797 was returned to me at the time of interview
my question:
Can I apply for a H1B transfer and attend interview again for stamping as I have original I 797???
WHAT OTHER OPTION DO I HAVE...

Sorry.. Subject should have been "Filing PERM During 6th year of H1"
Hi,
I have approved I140 from company A and leaving it in few days. I will enter into 6th year in March next year.
Company B filed H1 transfer based on I140 from company A and H1 transfer is approved for three years.
Company B is little hesitant to file GC immediately due to economy but promising to file before I enter 6th year, but I am not fully sure if they do.
Can GC process be started when I am in 6th year under above circumstances? (H1 extension is NOT needed for 3 more years).
If Labor from company B gets denied during or after 6th year, can company B apply another PERM labor and pursue my GC processing?
Thanks
WA

afaik there is no impact on GC... EXCEPT: if there is an RFE, you have to prove beyond doubt to uscis that you have a full time job and your job duties are "Same or similar" to what is in your labor application... however, if you asked me, from a tax and liability perspective, i would recommend going for llc/s-corp/c-corp (based on your situation) instead of 1099... even 1099 can be used for good tax benefits but is not that great from a liability perspective... having said that, if you are into software development, it is likely that you will be asked to buy liability insurance... so, it all depends on your situation...
Hello
I am planning to work part time on 1099, just wanted to know will it impact the GC process in anyway
My status
Working full time on EAD with GC Employer (planning to port job and use AC21 as soon as there is any opportunity)
485 pending since more than 6 months
Thank you

yes, in general as per law, you have to file tax returns to both states.
But most of the desi-employers try to use same state that they used first part of year and continue with that till end of year. But in the next year, they start with new state. This happens all the time with most of the desi-employers. There is no problem. You are not skipping any taxes, it is your employer's responsibility. If your employer says, he is working here and paying state taxes, then thats it, nobody can't say/argue anything.
:confused:
It is partly my fault as I should have noticed when I started a new project in end August in South Carolina.
But now looking at my W2 it shows that my employer has been filing taxes in my previous state Missouri for the entire year. How should I go about correcting this? I was in Missouri for 5 months and in South Carolina for the remainder. In which state should I file my tax too?
Any help will be greatly appreciated

Infact I got a call from US Consulate and they said the same thing to me, and they offered to cancel the appointment for me.
I did get the appointment thru some agency and was wondering if they played a trick but the agency vehemently denied doing any such thing,
I had a Toronto appt as well.
However not sure if it was an official call or a prank
I have an appointment in Toronto next month and today I got a voice message from the US embassy in Canada saying that there could be processing delays of days or months and the decision will be taken by the visa office during the interview. Has anyone else got this kind of message?
