Hi all,
I am getting a new job offer and i applied my GC this July just like most of us here. Is it possible to accept the offer and transfer the H1B visa, then try and negotiate to start later as soon as 180 days are completed?
What happens if i transfer my H1 now ... less than 180 days..and do not start with the new company, will my 485 still be processed? Lets say the H1 is transferred, but i plan not to use that H1 and stick to the same company where my H1 is, will that still be ok?
I am confused, its a good offer, and i dont know what to do. pls help..

Personal experience
This was in 2006.
H1b applied on Feb-2-2006 with old passport expiry date Oct-14-2006
H1b approved on May-9 dates May-9-2006 to Jan-31-2009
I applied for passport renewal sometime in March-2006
New passport sent by Washington DC with date Apr-25-2006 to Apr-24-2016.
So i had no issues getting h1b approval with passport expiring in few months.
i don't know if your attorney is right/wrong, but sharing my personal experience here.
thank you and good luck buddy.

H1B Visa Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
Secretary Janet Napolitano of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced (http://www.aila.org/content/default.aspx?docid=32175) on June 3, 2010 that the U.S. and France have established an arrangement to implement the Immigration Advisory Program (IAP), which allows for the identification of high-risk travelers at foreign airports before they board aircraft bound for the U.S. This arrangement has been launched at Paris� Charles De Gaulle International Airport. A similar arrangement was entered into on July 1, 2009, implementing IAP at Madrid Barajas International Airport.
The purpose of the IAP is to allow specialized U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) personnel posted in foreign airports to utilize current targeting and passenger analysis information and/or an assessment of passengers� documentation to identify high-risk persons bound for the U.S. and to make �no board� recommendations to carriers and host governments.
Secretary Napolitano believes that the IAP arrangements will enhance the capabilities of both the U.S. and foreign countries in which we have collaborated with to protect our immigration systems as well as the global aviation network from abuse by terrorists and transnational criminals.
DHS currently has IAP arrangements with seven (7) countries and operates at nine (9) locations.

Hi,
Me and My friend developed a product, which is ready to launch. The product is very good and two fortune 500companies are willing to implement the product and back us up.
Now my problem is I am on H1B working fulltime with a company and also have an EAD. At this moment I cannot leave my fulltime job. My question is , if I can be a partner with my friend in the new company we are forming( My friend is a US citizen), also will I be able to get paid ( as the developement of the product drained my pocket, this was the hope and I think we are close to reap the hardwork) . Also my wife is also on EAD , can she be the partner? Will there be any issue if I can do that.
Please help!!

I selected H1B: SPECIALITY OCCUPATION as that was the manner i last entered the country in Dec 2007. Even though i have an AP(haven't used it) but for my wife(who entered on AP) i selected DA: Advance parole. So if you used AP at POE then your status is DA. Hope that helps :)

Hi all,
This is my first post here, if it is not in the appropriate location please excuse me.
My company filed my I-485, EAD and AP together.(On Auguest 6th this year) They asked me for only one check for $745.
I was reading through a few posts and found that everybody had submitted 3 individual cheques for the same...
Is this ok? Or did my company do a blunder.
I have not yet recieved any receipts.
I just had one single check...Don't sweat..

Hi all,
I got married in March 08. My wife is on H1 before marraige and working at Minenapolis but after the marraige she always stayed here(found a diff project) with me in DC. The mistake (i think) we didnt paid much attention the to the update on the address or the maritul status on paystubs and as of now both our paystubs show our older addresses and single status (as we thought we can file a joint return at the year end where we can do all adjustments). Now that my date is current and applying spouse as derivative will this raise any rfe (ofcourse i have the marraige doc)? As such iam not to bothered about the rfe per se as ours is a genuine marraige but iam worried whether these rfe will lead to extreme delays (i have seen cases) and whether anybody encountered this kind of scenario before pl post your experience.
Appreciate your opinions on this.

I have two I -140's approved with one PD from end of 2005 and other end of 2006 both on EB2. I 485 is based based on 2nd one in 2006. So question is can I port 2005 pd to I 485 based on 2006?
Some where I heard that you can only port the PD when your 2nd is application stage and is pending. but here it is applied and already approved. Is it a good case for Porting PD or interfiling?
And by the way what is the difference between porting and interfiling?
Thanks

10/23/2007: Senate Passed Legislation to Recapture 61,000 Unused Numbers for Allied Healthcare Workers
* In the legal immigration, the allied healthcare community has strongest lobbying groups in the nation. These groups were able to muscle passage of a legislative bill in the Senate yesterday recapturing 61,000 unused EB-3 foreign worker visa numbers for them. This bill was passed as part of the Labor-HHS 2008 appropriation bill. Reportedly, this bill faces two roadblocks ahead to make it into a final legislation. One is the White House that has been threatening to veto the Labor-HHS bill in toto because of the amount of spending. Second is the House that has to agree to the Senate version in the conference committee. However, the second roadblock does not seem to pose any serious threat as demonstrated by the move of some of Democrats in the House. Please stay tuned.

Friends:
Two weeks ago I received an RFE for my E-Filed I-131 Advance Parole.
They requested two passport-style Photos but didn't mention where to send the RFE response.
However, on the top right-corner (next to the US Dept. Homeland security Logo) on the RFE page, there is an address (P.O Box 852381 Mesquite, Texas 75185-2381).
Underneath of the Director signature it has Officer # 159.
I'm really confused
1. Which address to send the RFE response?
2. Attention to what??? (Should I put Attn: to this officer # 159)
Please guide me ASAP...
hello,
I got a ref for E filed EAD too , but they sent a yellow sheet which had address on that
and specifically said to keep that sheet on top when i send the photos.
the address you mentioned is what i sent my ref to .
Hope this helps
Thanks

Hi Guys,
I got my I140 denied and one attorney suggests that I can file for New I140 and also Appeal to AAO office at the same time, another one suggests that if appeal is filed USICS will not process I140 until the decision is made on Appeal, did any one file file both new I140 and Appeal at the same time and got result for I140 earlier than Appeal.

Interesting findings in the USCIS Ombudsman report - 2007.
http://www.aila.org/content/fileviewer.aspx?docid=22650&linkid=162321
From the report:
Employment-Based (EB) Green Card Applications
(Annual Report pp. 32-37)
In FY 06, over 10,000 visas were lost because of slow processing of EB cases, even though USCIS had an estimated 100,000 to 150,000 pending applications for employment-based green cards. As of May 2007, the
State Department estimated that 40,000 EB visas may be lost in FY 07 if USCIS does not increase the
processing rate for green card applications. The Ombudsman attributes the slow rate of adjudications to inaccurate statistics and inefficient USCIS management of its workload. The problem will become significant in the coming fiscal year if there is a dramatic increase in EB green card applications, and a significant backlog is likely to develop if this problem goes unaddressed.

Dear Core Team,
Can you please indicate on the site if there are any bills (pending or otherwise in both the house and senate) that can get renewed focus or revived that would offer some sort of relief to the current situation of unavailability of visa numbers in the employment based green card process. I strongly feel that the current momentum and attention being drawn by the DOS/CIS update can be used to urge congress to pass some interim measure outside of CIR. That is where in my opinion should IV's focus be at this juncture. If and when you post anything on the site, i and other IV members i'm sure shall begin calling house reps. and senators to urge them for bringing the bill to the floor so that it provides relief to hundreds of thousands of legal immigrants.
Thanks!
Please IM the core members directly. I am not one. But I am sure once they ascertain your identity, they will provide all the details that you require.

Hi,
I was told by the staff at the center, where I did my FP, that one can do FP at any location in US. Just go to any nearest location at the same time and date as mentioned in the notice.
I did the same. My FP appointment was in Oakland but I went to San Jose office. I had gone to the San Jose office a day before to find out if I can go there for FP and that is when they told me this.
I suggest you ask your wife to go the local office a few days before her appointment and find out if she can go there for her FP appointment.
