Hi,
I am in the US now. Can I change to F1 visa in August and get the new F1 stamping or the approved transfer as you said, when I visit my home country later some ?
thanks again.
My understanding is that F1 visa status is maintained by I-20 and corresponding I-94 (which would usually say D/S and therefore would be valid as long as your I-20 and student-in-good-standing status are valid), for which you need to go outside US and reenter.

I received a RFE asking for evidence that could prove that currently I am on a non-immigrant status. I abandoned my F-1 status after I filled my I-485, and from what I knew you were supposed to have the corresponding status before you filled the I-485 but there was no need to still have it after you got the AOS.
My question is if there is a possibility that what the officer is asking for is evidence that proves that I HAD the F-1 status before filling the I-485 and if I abandoned it after filling it.

If you are on H-1, you cannot apply for L-1. You would have to work for a company outside the US for a period of 1 year before you can apply for a L-1 assuming you are in the US currently.

Just couple of days ago immigration-law.com reported about IV and its efforts to bring relief to high skilled community and 2 days later the site gets hacked. I wonder if anti-immigrants have anything to do with it ...... they may be really scared to IV :D

I've filed for I129 but I don't yet have my I-797C, Notice of Action form with me. I do have my receipt number and I was wondering if it was possible to find out the service center based on that.
When I check the status of my case online, it does not include any information regarding which service is processing my application.
If your receipt numbers begins with
WAC - CSC service center
EAC - VSC service center
LIN - NSC service center
SRC - TSC service center

We are posting the recent list of petitioners who received an approval in FY09 of Form I-129, requesting initial H-1B status for the beneficiary employee. Approximately 3,000 initial H-1B petitions are not accounted for on this list due to missing petitioner tax ID numbers.
While the full official final list of biggest H1B visa employers for FY2010 for the season has not been released, this preliminary list has been released for the Top employers this past US immigration year.
An H1B visa is a temporary working visa for professional positions, which allows foreign nationals to live and work in the U.S. for up to six years. This visa is an important tool for any employer to get the highly qualified technical expertise it needs to operate and grow its business.
If you compare the top 25 employers of US visas in 2009 to the past Top 100 H1B visa employers of FY2009, that many companies like InfoSys, Tata and Satyam have dropped substantially both in the number of US visas for foreigners applied for and their overall rank. In the cases of Tata and Satyam, they are not even on this top list anymore.
This further shows again both the fallacy of the arguments perpetuated by bigots in the US Congress and the US media about foreign companies (mainly Indian) taking the jobs of US citizens.

I would say 30 days after August 23 since that is the latest advert you ran for the job.
Thanks for your reply. One of the newspaper ads ran on July 27th. Does that mean I have to wait 30 days from that date?
I have 4 additional steps when DOL needs only three. May be I do not have to count the University Alumni Placement ad and file early.
Is this company considered professional oraganization for Operations Research Analyst job: www.apicsutah.org? We posted the job ad on this organization's website to fulfill the Professonal Organization requirement.
Thanks.

Kudos to Senator Chuck Schumer for raising the profile of a serious issue - discrimination against same-sex partners in US immigration law. Even as several states are enacting marriage equality laws and anti-discrimination laws are moving forward around the US (including here in my home town of Memphis), the antiquated Defense of Marriage Act prevents USCIS from treating these families fairly. The UAFA would be a huge step forward. The Senate will have its first hearing on the bill tomorrow. My friend Chuck Kuck, president of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, has posted his written statement here. Thanks to reader...

The Council of Graduate Schools (CGS) issued an August 20, 2009 press release, reporting a decline in offers of admission from U.S. graduate schools to prospective foreign students. This is the first decline in the rate of offers to foreign students since 2004.
While these significant reductions affected the overall decline in foreign student enrollment, the number of offers of admission to students from the People's Republic of China grew at a rate of 13 percent. The CGS press release indicates that this was the fourth year in a row of double-digit growth in the number of students from China offered admission to U.S. graduate schools.
With the up coming biggest education Expo in China (http://www.phdchina.org/english/index.shtml), the US is the country of Honour at this show. This is a clear sign that Chinese students are looking at the US as the main destination for studies and future opportunities.
There is a significant economic contribution made by foreign students in tuition and related expenditures, as well. Generally, a foreign student is required to pay tuition at the much higher out-of-state rate, even when attending a state school. The potential of Chinese students boosting the economy is significant and should not be ignored. Even Consular officers realize this factor and student visa (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137176.html) issuance to Chinese students has increased by 40% according to a recent survey.

8th Year H1 extension applied by current company. Still in process, should be approved in Nov 2006.
Can I transfer to a new company using this H1 ?
There is nothing tricky, it is plain and simple: you want to switch jobs?
You have to apply for a new H1. You absolutely cannot use your current H1 to work any other job.

Could someone help me with this issue, please?
I applied for I-140 and I-485 in August 2007...my PD is sept. 2005, Eb3....
...I saw online the following message for I-140( I don't know what RFE was about:
Current Status: Response to request for evidence received, and case processing has resumed.
"On January 24, 2008, we received your response to our request for evidence. We will notify you by mail when we make a decision or if we need something from you. If you move while this case is pending, call customer service. You should expect to receive a written decision or written update within 60 days of the date we received your response unless fingerprint processing or an interview are standard parts of case processing and have not yet been completed, in which case you can use our processing dates to estimate when this case will be done."
My notice date for I-140 is Oct. 4th 2007 and receipt date is August 16th 2007...I've done my fingerprints in december 2007...my question is:....
......does it mean that Uscis will approve or deny I-140 within 60 days like they said above...even though the processing times for I-140 in Nebraska is Jan 2007?
What does the above message mean?
Does this mean Uscis is working on my I-140?
Could someone clarify this please? Anyone faced a similar situation?
I would highly appreciate your reply.
Thanks in advance!

Since I could not get dates for Mumbai consulate during my visit to India even though i paid my fees at HDFC mumbai branch. it should not matter as long as u pay your fees and u r a returning worker.

Hi,
I am in a unique situation, any advise/help would be appreciated.
My H1 Visa and I-94 are expiring on Jan 20, 2009. It can be extended till Apr 2011 as I have been in US only for 3 Yrs and 8 Months. My current employer is not extending my Visa, so I am going to get it extended through another company, say COMPANY ABC (a Staffing company basically).
However, I don't want to be with Company ABC because I am soon going to get a job with a direct client, CLIENT XYZ, but that won't happen until Jan 25th or so.
So my question is, if I apply for extension through COMPANY ABC for now, just so that I don't go 'out of status' on Jan 20th, will CLIENT XYZ be able to apply for my extension on Jan 25th, while my application with Company ABC is still pending? Or they (CLIENT XYZ) will have to wait until my first application (With COMPANY ABC) is processed?
Basically, just want to know if a Company ABC has filed for H1 Transfer and I-94 extension before the expiry date, can another Company XYZ file for an extension/transfer after the expiry while the application from company ABC is still being processed?
Any help is appreciated. I have posted this query on couple of other posts but no one seems to know the answer! no one replied yet :(

Here is my understanding after I read the report.
There is a law that says that I-485 applications will have to be processed within 120 days. According to USCIS interpretation, the clock ticks only after FBI name check, this check and that check. But the supervisors/adjudicators have authority to bypass the check and process the application after 40 days of no reply from FBI or other entities.
None of the above mentioned can be construed as legal advice.

Are you in consulting business. Technically you are supposed to work at the location where you have filed your LC. If you had filed prior to PERM, then you may be fortunate because pre-PREM there was a textarea where the employer could explain about where the beneficary would work. Consulting firms filled out this column in such a way that you could work anywhere in US, but your head office is xxxx. If this is the case then you should not have problems other than filling our AR-11 and sending it to DHS / USCIS.
If it is after PERM, then you do not have any options. I am not sure how consuting firms handle this situation.
