Hi
I lost my job in January and since I was not able to get a new project. So, returned back to India in May'09. My AP was valid till 21-July-2009. I did not file for extension while in US.
Now, I am getting a job in US and the employer is asking if I could join immdiately. Please let me know:
1. If there is any option for me to renew my AP from India?
2. Any other options, since my H1B got expired (6 years) in May'09.
Note: My EAD is valid till June 2010.
Thanks for your help.

Can someone employed on a H1B visa do small private/independent consulting on the side in the same field of work? Or can he/she get paid as a private consultant in his/her home country while on H1B visa in the US?
As long as you are fulfilling your obligation to work full-time with your H1-B employer, there should be no problem to do additional work in your home country in your spare time (I am assuming that you will do that remotely) from an immigration point of view. However, it is a complex situation tax-wise. In general you do have to report that overseas income in your tax return and pay tax on it. Things get even more complicated if you do not bring the income back to US but keep it in your home country ...

Hi All,
Need some piece of advice. My H1B is expiring on 07-15-08, On July 2nd my I-140 was filed in premium processing. My LC is not 365 days old, so i need I-140 to apply for 3 year extension of my H1. Since it takes max of 15 calander days for I-140 to go through it may protentially get approved on July 18th and the approval may arrive in a week after that. Since I dont have a basis for requesting H1 extension , I am wondering how I can stay in status from 15th July till i get I-140 approved.
Any ideas?
Appreciate your response.

The U.S Department of State (DOS) has advised that there are no more employment-based visa numbers available for fiscal year 2009, which concludes September 30, 2009. This affects all employment based categories, but particularly applicants in the employment-based non-ministerial fourth category (EB-4). The EB-4 non-ministerial category includes religious occupation, vocation and professional categories (but not the ministerial category).
The non-ministerial EB-4 category is set to expire September 30, 2009 and individuals in this category must have their adjustment of status applications approved or if they applied via consular processing, they must be admitted into the United States by midnight by September 30, 2009. Unless Congress extends the sunset provision, individuals in the EB-4 non-ministerial category are unable to file Form I-485 Adjustment of Status Applications or consular processing applications after September 30, 2009.
While the I-360 religious worker petitions (ministerial and non-ministerial categories) may still be filed before September 30, 2009, given the unavailability of visas in the EB-4 category the month of September, the Applications to Adjust Status (Form I-485) or applications for consular processing will not be accepted this month. Thus, adjustment of status applications that remained pending will not be approved unless a visa number had already been captured.
Individuals in the EB-4 ministerial category are eligible to file Adjustment of Status applications until October 1, 2009, when visas in the EB-4 category become available. Please visit the visa bulletin (http://www.travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_1360.html) available at the DOS’s Web site.

In the last few weeks, as we worked to get our amendments in, USINPAC (http://www.usinpac.com/) has proved to be a tremendously important ally.
Read our joint press release (http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=blogcategory&id=15&Itemid=43).
We view their continued support as critical to our efforts once the Senate returns from recess.

Hi,
I have been offered a job with a company who has an approved labor of Priority date Dec 2002. Seems like a good deal but I wanted to know if Labor Transfer is still possible. I mean Labor can be transfered from someone's name to mine.
Please respond ASAP.If I can get a response it'll be great.

H-1B through non-profits like Universities does not have a cap. Your only bet would be to find a job through one such an entity and apply for H-1B. Then you can pursue H-1B through any commercial entity during 2008 quota starting from April 2007.
Please research Greencard process on the Internet.

Thats ok even if she doesn't have AP. That is perfectly fine. Don't worry her H4 is already stamped and she has time till next year. She is totally safe even if she does not have AP.
Thanks chantu, She doesn't have AP, Do you think it is Safe only if she has AP ?

kedrex,
There has been discussion about this issue in the following thread
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=23640
Gurus,
There seem to be a positive and negative news this year for EB2s. On the one hand, USCIS surprisingly allocated all their visas last year and that means that EB2 will not receive the (20k/3) visas that they received last year.
On the other hand because of the bad economy, one would expect that the companies will not be hiring as much EB1s and ROW EB2s as last year plus the DOL is expected to make Labor Certs very strict plus there are postings that software jobs wont make it to EB2.
I would appreciate it if the number crunching gurus can throw any light on how the rest of this fiscal is gonna be like for EB2s.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I got an email from a reporter at the Seattle Business Magazine who is writing an article on the lack of Immigration reform in the United States and how that is adversely affecting innovation and job creation.
The magazine in question is definitely not a major publication, however I think its important to highlight our case wherever possible.
Is there a 'Media Kit' on the lines of "meet your lawmaker kit' ? I looked at the "contact media" link on the home page but could not find anything.
I would be grateful if someone can point me to the relevant material, or if someone is willing to share their experience in talking to the media.
Thanks
Please contact Star Sun

which visa can someone apply for it s/he intends to work as a caterer?is the J-1 visa applicable for this? if yes what r the eligibility requirements for this visa?
It is unlikely that this would qualify for J-1 status, unless the caterer was coming here as a trainee of some sort. J-1 is for exchange visitors.
All J-1 visitors must have a �program sponsor.� There are �umbrella sponsor� organizations, e.g. the American Council on International Personnel (American Council on International Personnel (http://www.acip.com)) and the Association for International Practical Training (Welcome to AIPT.org (http://www.aipt.org/)). You could contact them for specific information.
