Saw it. However, if my experience with slashdot is anything to go by, we wont get any sympathy from fellow (US citizen/GC) techies there .. they have been brainwashed into believing that we actually stole their jobs ... in any case their opinion does not matter much. The only folks who count are the media and lawmakers.

Make sure that your new reporting manager is aware of your GC process. I had a manager earlier, who midway through my LC process decided he will not support the GC, since he was not my manager who hired me, since i was moved to another group, after my LC was filed...........If needed go up the ladder for buy-in

H1B Visa Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
The United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) recently updated their list of Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) approved schools (http://www.ice.gov/doclib/sevis/pdf/ApprovedSchools.pdf) .
The schools listed have all been certified to participate in the program. The program allows foreign students interested in obtaining an education in the United States to complete a visa petition, pay the required fee, and attend a U.S. College or University. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) created a web based system called the Student Exchange Visitor System (SEVIS) which maintains information on the foreign students accepted into the program. The SEVIS monitors the students for the duration of their approved stay, as required by the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act (IIRAIRA) of 1996.
Interested Foreign students: There is a process in obtaining a student visa, but it is not a difficult one. The student must first obtain Form I-20 from the U.S. College or University from which he/she intends to enroll, pay the required visa fee (Form I-901) and contact a local U.S. Consulate/Embassy to schedule an interview. At the interview, the student must have Form I-20, proof of payment of Form I-901, financial support documentation, and a completed visa application. The SEVP procedures differ among U.S. Consulates/Embassies; contact your U.S. Consulate/Embassy NOW to determine its particular procedure on applying for a visa before planning for the interview.
Interested Schools: There is a separate process to obtain F & M Certification. Authorized school officials must obtain and complete Form I-17. An overview of the SEVP Certification process can be found on the ICE website . If approved, the school will be certified and allowed to issue Form I-20 to qualifying foreign students.
If you need assistance or an explanation of the SEVP/SEVIS (http://www.ice.gov/sevis/), please contact our office (http://www.mvplg.com/contact.htm) to schedule a consultation.

hi all,
what is the priority date?there is an employer who filled perm for me in october 2008 and the perm was approved.i-140 was not filled.
The employer laid me off due to bad economy. Can i still claim october 2008 as my priority date?
Thanks,
Nope. You need to have an approved I-140.

I work in a semiconductor company and got laid off last week. My company informed me that they will inform INS to cancel my H1B in May. I plan to go back to school and change my status to F1. My question is, to do a change of status from H1 to F1, will they ask my recent pay stubs? Please reply
Thanks!
Thanks!

My case was approved on Aug 19, 2010. I received my card on Aug 26, 2010.
Unfortunately, The EAD card had a wrong start date. I have sent my cards back for correction on Sept 2, 2010.
(I do have approval e-mail of my cards and the case.)
So, Question is, Can I work while my cards come back with the correct date. I don't have receipt of the replacement cards in my hand yet.
Please let me know.
Thanks,
Samir

In APRIL Visa Billiton my PD is current, as I have PD of JUNE 2001( EB2), my RD - JUNE 29, 2007 .at this stage if I change company what is the impact on my GC approval. Should I wait for some more time to join the new company?
Your advices are appreciated

That's the job that I'm very much looking for!
I not really a master webmaster but I did some jobs in the recent past and they were satisfied. :)
I think it is great to have a product intro to your project. since it's dogs it should feature dogs. dogs look great over a white background I think with some text or paragraph on the left. If you will used flash add some dog sounds of different breeds.
That's about all I could think of. Hope it helps!

Hello All,
My wife is in a similar situation where she was on F1 till Sept 31st (OPT) and now on H1-B (since Oct 1st). I have also added her as a dependent in my GC application and hence she has received her AP. We are planning to go to India in the month of January. Can she return back using AP? I have read in other threads that one can return using AP and there is no need to stamp your H1-B visa in the passport. But in her case, the H1-B visa is not stamped even once. Can this be a problem if she enters using AP? I would appreciate your advise in this matter.
Regards,

Hi,
I need your help on this tricky (at least for me) situation. I am a Software Developer right now and want to chanfe my job to a PM (product manager), but within the same division, same employer. Apparently the job descirption of PM (like new product functional design...) will be different from the one of developer (like new product technical design, coding...).
Right now, my GC status is: PERMLC got approved Dec/2006. I-140 was filed on Feb/2007 and still pending. I-485/AP/EAD were filed on Aug/2007 and pending.
My questions are:
1) I know the AC 21 law, say after Feb 2008(180 days after my 485 filing) and if the 140 gets approved by then too, I can do ANY job change within teh same employer or even switch to another employer, is this true? Or, I still have to stick to the similar job type(SW developer in my case), no matter within a same employer or different one?
2) Before I can use AC21, say from now to Feb2008, I know I can not switch to another employer. But can I change my job to PM with the same employer. Will this affect my 485/GC case? If so, is there any solution or workaround so that I can change my job "smartly" without affecting 485?
Thanks a lot for your help!

It is sad to see nobody coming forward for help. It is everybody's fight. When someone takes initiative we should all help. There is nothing to fear while meeting lawmakers.
All members in Georgia, please contact brij523 by sending him PMs and help him with chapter tasks. It is important that we all participate in our own state chapters.
Coming to this site annonymously and posting all kinds of ideas for others to implement, or posting strategiic direction and commenting will not help. Members are fearful of even giving the correct email ids to us. Thousands of our emails bounced this week when we sent an email to our members. We want everybody to roll up their sleeves and participate in meet the lawmakers drive.

Ask your company if they can do your H1 extension under CORP thus the legal entity does not change and there should be no issue.
It seems like for your initial H1, it was a mistake on their part that they filed you H1 under CORP while you were actually paid by the BANK. Can you ask them why they did that in the first place?
If it's a mistake on their part, there's no reason why you should suffer and they must take every effort to help you out. Work with them, talk to your manager, his/her manager and explain them the issue. It's an internal thing and I'm sure can be worked out.
Hope this helps.
