I am on H1B working as a consultant for a Client company.
My Project is ending this month. I filed my 485, EAD on March 2009 on EB2 Row and PD 2008 Jan through my parent Company.
140 approved long time back.
485 is < 180 days. EAD not yet approved.
I fear potential layoff in case not found a project fast.
Can I know my options. ?
Please reply...any experts..

I came over here just over 5 years ago on a fiancee visa, with my daughter who was 7yrs old at the time, married my now husband, and went through the Greencard process, and finally got my 10 yr Greencard about a year ago. Everything has been fine up till now, but 3 weeks ago I discovered that my husband had been sexually molesting my daughter for the previous 2 weeks, she is now 12 yrs old!
I got out of the home immediately and have been staying with freinds for the last 3 weeks. We reported this to the police and have been interviewed by them, DCF, and she has given a taped interview to the Child Protection Team, and now we are waiting to find out where we go from here!
I have never worked since I arrived here, as he needed me at home with my daughter and his 2 children who he had custody of. So I am now homeless, pennyless, because he has cut me off from everything, and in dispair as to where to go from here.
My family in the UK just want to to return home immediately, but if I do I may jeapordise my case, and will probably be brought back to testify anyway in the coming months!
Any advice anyone?
I live in Jacksonville Florida.

Friends,
I have the following situation, any help/pointers is much appreciated:
- Have EAD (expired Sep 2010). H1B expires Dec 20, 2009.
- I was informed sometime back that I am going to be laid off mid September (next week)
- I am expecting another job offer (interview went well and most likely will get the job) and plan to start at that job late September / eraly October 2009.
- The new offer that I am expecting to get is for the position of Senior Software Engineer, whereas my previous position (where I will be laid off from) was Software Engineer.
So, my questions are:
1. Is it still possible to transfer my H1B visa even though I expect a gap of atleast 2 weeks between the two jobs, or is it better to switch over to the EAD?
2. Will it be a problem for my pending 485 application if my position changes to Senior Software Engr? (although the responsibilities in both positions are about 95% similar, few more responsibilities as a Senior Eng, thats all)
3. If I end up changing over to EAD, what next steps should I do (wrt keeping my 485 applicationb alive and to inform USCIS that I have switched over to EAD).
4. A few months before I got the notice of layoff, I got engaged to a woman in India. I would have preferred to get married by end of the year (would have applied for 1yr extension of H1b) so that my wife could have come over on H4 visa. Now, if I switch over to EAD, what are the options of bringing my (to be) wife over? Is this going to be a problem?

Guys,
I think we should start a new campaign be it a flowers campaign or a simple card or Fax/letter campaign. But we need to start this ASAP. We should a 'Seek information' campaign. Each of us write letters and faxes to DOS and USCIS and request them for this.
In May'07 the DOS moved forward the visa dates by 2 years for almost all categories. What if USCIS received more than 140,000 applications enough to exhaust 2007-2008 quota in that case Visa dates will either won't move or may move 1-2 months through out the next year. And we like fools will keep watching the Visa bulletins just to be disappointed each month.
Now since USCIS have already receipted (or will soon do it) all the June applications, they should be in a position to release the infomation on how many applications they received for each category and for each country. We will request both the agencies to work together and release some kind of statistics some predictions like what they expect for Sept visa bulletin and further. We are living in dark and information like this will give us some insight and will let us plan our careers. Until we press them for information they won't release anything.
Guys please think about this seriously, I think this is the need of this hour.
Thanks

On May 5, 2008 I got a message through my employer that they received an EAC receipt number from USCIS.While checking online we received a message
Application Type: I129, PETITION FOR A NONIMMIGRANT WORKER
Current Status: Case Rejected because of Incorrect Fee
On May 5, 2008, we determined that this I129 PETITION FOR A NONIMMIGRANT WORKER was not properly filed because you submitted incorrect fee. Therefore, we have rejected your case and returned it to you with all supporting materials, along with the fee. Please follow the instructions on the notice to submit the case with correct fee."
The online notice specifies that "Please follow the instructions on the notice to submit the case with correct fee". Unfortunately, we did not receive the notice till June 5, 2008. I called USCIS and requested them for the papers, they reassured me to have the communication sent to their Vermont office and that I have to wait for another 45 days. Today morning 26th June, 2008 my employer received a notice from USCIS saying that the H1-B petition has been rejected because it was not randomly selected for processing.
I am confused how can I get a receipt number without getting randomly selected? what can I do in this regard please help me!

My birth was regiestered under totally different first name, also DOB is off by 9 days (10th June instead of 1st June). Since the birth is registered they are not issueing non-availability cert. . What to do?
I have both parents affidavits, school leaving cert, 10th class cert, PAN card showing date/place same as that in passport. Filing a civil case in India is the option but it could take more than a year. since my PD is Sep04, my 485 could be processed within months.

Hi, i'm gonna explain my situation.
I came to the states on december with a J-1 Visa for the purpose of work and travel program, i've got a ds-2019, my I-94 is with D/S, and i got a SSN card with the "only valid for work with dhs authorization", also i dont have the 2 year residence requirement on the J-1 visa so i don't need to get a waiver for appliying to AOS. I was working in colorado for 3 1/2 months and my visa expired on march 30. I was supposed to go back to my country (peru) but then i went to texas to see my girlfriend that i haven't seen in a year, and we decided to get married, which we just did a week ago. She's a permanent resident, living her for like 5 years or so, but not a citizen.
The thing is that neither of us have so much money to fill the papers (she just got a new job after a couple months unemployed :( ), she's still living with her parents, and i dont have a job anymore cause my visa already expired so i decided to move to florida with my cousin (i've just got here yesterday), so at least i don't have to pay rent and he can help me a little. So we're both triyin to make some money to make this happen.
The thing is that, i know that working out of status is illegal. Right now our plan is to get money for her to get her citizenship, move together, and then apply for my AOS, work permit and everything. But right now i need to work. My question is, if i work with my current ssn, which i'm not allowed to, will USCIS forgive that when we apply for AOS? I have explained my situation to some people here, and they're willing to give me a job with my current ssn but i dont know if i should take it or not. Can i then argument that it was for getting the money to become legal or something. We haven't applied for aos now cause, affidavit of support (we dont have money he).
Well at least we're happily married and had a good honey moon in Austin, i'm missing her thought :(
Please comment and try to give me some ideas here.
Thanks

Yes people do.
I just got a couple of jobs about a month ago. Personally, i think posting in the "Job Seeker" section (this forum) is pointless. Go look in the "Job offers". No employer is going to look here for talent (as far as i know).
So yes, people do get jobs.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services will celebrate the grand opening of its new field office and application support center in Bedford on Thursday, Sept. 2, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, naturalization ceremony and tours of the facility. USCIS Associate Regional Director Shelley Goodwin will preside during the naturalization ceremony and will administer the Oath of Allegiance to 25 citizenship candidates. She will be joined by USCIS� Boston District Director Denis Riordan and USCIS� Manchester Field Office Director Simon Abi Nader.
Gov. John Lynch will join USCIS and delivering remarks for the special naturalization ceremony. Joining USCIS for the ribbon-cutting ceremony will be Bedford Town Manager Russell Marcoux, Mayor of Manchester Ted Gatsas and Glenn C. Rotondo, acting regional administrator of General Services Administration, New England region.
The new office, at 9 Ridgewood Road, will provide a range of immigration services, including naturalization interviews, lawful permanent resident processing, fingerprinting and photographic services and is well-suited to serve the area�s immigrant community. The new facility replaces the former Manchester location on Canal Street. The new office is based on a national model for new USCIS office locations throughout the country.
The new building is being dedicated to Sgt. Major Abraham Cohn, Civil War Medal of Honor recipient. Cohn was born in 1832 in Guttentag, an East Prussian town. He immigrated to the U.S. in the mid-19th century and fought for the Union during the Civil War serving with the 6th New Hampshire Infantry Volunteers. He was awarded the Medal of Honor �for conspicuous gallantry� in the Battle of the Wilderness (May 6, 1864) and �for bravery & coolness� at the Battle of the Crater (July 30, 1864).
The 25 citizenship candidates originate from 13 countries: Bosnia-Herzegovina, Brazil, China, France, Iran, Kosovo, Malaysia, Pakistan, Poland, Russia, Sudan, Thailand and United Kingdom. The ribbon cutting will take place at 11 a.m. with the naturalization ceremony to follow at 1 p.m.

Hello all:
First, I'd like to express my thanks to IV for taking up this cause and doing a wonderful job!
I am currently on an H1-B visa. My 6 year term expires 2/1/09. Current employer is yet to file LCA. Company lawyers have advised that any time I've spent out of the country (past & within next few months) can be used to offset the 1-yr cut off requirement for LCA application. I've been out for a total of 6 weeks to date, but would need more time, looking at an April-end LCA filing. I am now looking to change my job.
-Can I change my status to H4 until I get another job and then file for GC with new employer?
-What are current processing times for H4 if applied from within the US?
-Will I get subjected to H1 quota when changing back from H4 to H1?
-I've been told time spent on H4 is not counted for H1 term and I can apply that time (in addition to my 6 weeks) to the 1-yr limit (LCA should be filed 1 yr before 6-year H1 expiration). Is this true?
-If so, what about the time taken for H4 approval? Can I be in status after resigning & while waiting for H4 approval? Can the time taken for H4 approval be counted towards time not on an H1?
-Has anyone heard of such a situation? What are the chances of getting an extension if H1 ported to new company & LCA filed with them after joining?
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!

F1 requires a intent of non-immigration. By filing I-140 you already showed intent to immigrate (labor approval alone will not be considered intent to immigrate). You will not be able to get COS to F1 from H1B. Even if USCIS grants your COS by mistake you will have hard-time getting a VISA at an American Embassy.

If I were you I would just get a new exam done and submit it. Also, you should explain that you DID submit it in the first place and send the sealed envelope again. What do you have to lose if you send 2 medicals? Hanging on to the sealed one you have does not gain anything.
About envelope being huge? Well, no regulation says that you cannot send any envelope greater than 11x17. That would be just plain stupid if they rejected because of envelope size, and I seriously doubt they would do that. Thinking about it, it would be funny to see someone chest xray pop out of an 11x17 envelope :)

While people who apply to Chicago today, can file 485 by July, I'm gonna miss the boat :eek:
Of course I don't compare myself with people stuck in BECs
