Hi
I am planning to port my EB3 to EB2 but I donot have the Approval copy of my I-140 of my EB3 (But I have the receipt number) and I asked my privious Employer(who applied my case in EB3 and I used AC21 and moved to another company) for a copy of approved I-140 and he is not willing to give it to me.
Can I still port with out having I-140 approval copy of EB3? if yes, how?

Hi,
I had applied for my H1 extension in June 2008 and waited for some time and then upgraded it to premium processing in July. I did not get any result on my H1 extension but in the meantime my GC was approved in August. My question is will i be able to get my H1 processing fee back, at least the premium processing fee. I heard if your H1 processing doesn't get any result in certain time you will be entitled to get your money back.
Thanks in advance

Does anyone know if you need a visa to visit the Grand Turk island? I am on an H1B in the US and taking a cruise to the Bahamas and T&C in April. The
ship stops over at Grand Turk for 6 hours.
Not sure about specific places, but in general problems are when you are coming back to US.
If you have stamped and valid h1b for returning back to US, you should be fine.
I have not had any issue or heard of any issues while visiting mexico, hawaii or alaska

Many times you get 10 year visa that does not mean they can stay for 10 years. You never get to stay more than 6 months and under exceptional circumstances that is increased to a year.
First of all, does US consulate give visa valid for 2 months? I know some countries do, especially if you are applying through SOTC like travel agents.
Ok.. to answer your question: Your parents _must_ start within 2 months from the time 2-month Visa issued. In other words, your parents must travel before the expiry of Visa in the passport.
Once they come here, how long can they stay _legally_ in USA depends on I-94 card. Typically I-94 card will be given with an expiry date, which I belive will not be _beyond_ expiry date of the Visa in the passport.
Hope this helps!!

In recent times we are not able to see cases in online system and only way to get that into online system is by doing an address change. Unless the case comes into online system we can NOT add that to our protfolio for tracking.

Instead of pay increase, I decided to buy stock in the company I work for (small startup firm) and I work using my EAD, AC21
My compensation and with some profit sharing makes me a 6-7% owner of the firm on paper.
Now, if the company gets hit by a lawsuit and dragged to court, will I be affected?
(My role is strictly IT related and also assist in Data Analytics).
My immigration lawyer is yet to respond.

There is a pilot in progress where a combined document has been issued which serves both as EAD and AP and the validity is 2 years... So I would say its a matter of time if the pilot is successful.
There are some conditions that need to be met.

Hi Experts/Lawyers,
Hope someone can shed some light on this case, anyone who is/has experienced this situation.Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.
My previous company (9yrs), they filed for my GC.
Labor approved and they did a concurrent filing in august 2007.
After a year I lost my job, no choice, had to quit, tired to hang in there for I-140 approval but, they had one lay off and I was safe and another layoff soon after I left the company.
After a month or so they withdrew my I-140 petition and it was not approved.I didn't get any notice, but came to know when I got my I-485 denial notcie.
I found a new job out of state, working remote.Filed for I-485 and I-140 MTR/appeal with the help of new attorneys.They claimed since the concurrent filing was past 180 days and if I-140 was approvable they should approve it and allow me to port to the new company.
Meanwhile I got H1B extension with the new company.
The MTR/Appeal Got denied and the notice didn't mention anywhere that my petition was unapprovable, but since it was withdrawn, it's denied and we did show the proof of new job and job offer and pay stubs in the same/similar position and responsibility.
We tired two more appeals, I tried Congressional office, everything failed. Now the attorneys suggest that I go for Writ of Mandamus, and I' am going for that now.
Meanwhile my H1B with the new company is valid till sept of this year.I do not have new perm pending or new GC process, but will still have the job offer for AC21.
Also my spouse is a GC holder, will be eligible to file for citizenship in 2011.
I have to stay legal till that happens or I hear from the lawsuit.Can't extend H1B since GC process is not pending now (this was my 9th year extension).
What are my options? Is it safe to try and see if I can change my status to F1 and go to school here till my spouse gets the citizenship? I have a I-130 pending through that way.So my immigrant intend is clear.Help please.

Hi,
I know there has been lot of discussions on things to do and not to do after changing jobs - but seems like there is no definitive conclusion. Thought of getting opinion on following:
(i) Generally people suggest to send G28 to change the lawyer representation - this helps in tracking what is going on without missing any RFE's.
(ii) Regarding AC21 letter informing USCIS there are contradicting advice even from lawyers - some say that dont do anything until they issue an RFE. Thinking here is that we would attract USCIS attention by sending an AC21 letter that could potentially delay. By not sending the letter they might just approve without any questions.
Based on this, I initially thought of sending just G28 but not AC21 letter. But once we send G28 to change lawyer representation, my application get USCIS's attention anyway - so I am thinking why not send AC21 letter as well as a back up.
Any opinions?
Thanks.
You may want to change lawyers for many reasons including personal dissatisfaction, lawyers messing up, high fees , and more... I do not think this will attract so much attention in comparison.Just my thought.

Is there any problem if your passport is expired while on H1 visa?
Do we need to get the passport renewed before it is expiring?
Just get it renewed while you are in US.
Its a one day affair to get your passport renewed(in person). You submit all your docs in the morning and pick it up in the evening.

Hi - i am converting my L1 to F1 which will cover me for 2.5 years. In the field i am working in, there is a high probability i will be able to find work before the degree is finished. Is it usual for big employers to already have H1 visas to sponser you on, or do they have to start from scratch. Im really trying to find out how easy it would be for a prospective employer to hire me after. (yes i am aware that one is supposed to return back to their country of origin)

I would wait it out if I were you. Why the risk at this stage?
Risk/Benefit analysis is not in favour of anything but staying put if you ask me.
What if in the 8-9 months it will take to get to this stage, the EB3 date skips forward, worse yet what if they take a hard stand on conversion cases due to the number they are seeing and you get denied.
It all depends of course on your personal circumstances, but I can't see the logic in it.

140 processing has got nothing to do with your country of origin. Country of origin is used for quotas in AOS/485
In that i applied my I485 in July 2, 2007. AS i'm from bangladesh...when can i expect my AP, EAD and the I-485
