Hi:
I have H1b renewed on the basis of pending AOS application (EB3 june04) till 2012 and also ead/ap based on my spouse's AOS application. I am going to India on a vacation soon for a month or two. Recently I have heard many horror stories that even stamped H1B is getting rejected in POE. My question is that if something like that happen to me at the POE can I invoke my unused EAD/AP and request entry based on that? The reason I don't want to simply go back is because I have a house here in USA and a mortgage that I continue to be paying to keep the house.
Thanks

Never heard of anyone with proper papers getting into trouble (ie. the H1 is for a valid job, and in your case (where you are returning to continue employment) you have recent paystubs etc.
There were some rumors about people working for some body-shopping companies getting into trouble because they did not know who the client was, and what work they would do.
Check with a lawyer for the second part of your question, though my understanding is that you can still request to be admitted based on the pending 485 filed on your spouses job. The only kink is if your H1 entrance is denied because they suspect fraud, then I dont know how it plays out on the AP/EAD.

I have a curious situation. I have filed EB3-485 as a secondary applicant to my wife. I am currently in a job where I can't file a green card ( this is my 5th year of H1b). My understanding is one can't have a seventh year extension for H1b unless his I-140 is approved.
Should I consider changing the job and filing another GC by myself. I know I can continue renewing EAD but I still want to keep my H1b
Thanks
Just apply for labor and once the labor is approved apply for I140 (Apply in premium if USCIS starts accepting premium by the time your labor is approved). If premium is not started by the time your labor is approved then apply I140 in regular and wait for premium to start. you can change your I140 Application to premium even though you filed it in regular processing originally.
Who knows you might get the I140 approval in regular processing also before your 6 years is complete.
just do what you can

My spouse was on H4 then got a job and changed to H1. Subsequently spouse lost her job and is now back on H4. I have been on H1 throughout and my six years of H1B visa expire in 2010. MY spouse I and want to get our H1 and H4 visa stamped in Mumbai consulate.
Does any one think that the changeover from H4 to H1 and then again to H4 could be a reason to be concerned about for getting the visa stamped at the consulate?
Appreciate your valauable advice.
When you wife lost her job, I assume you filed a Change of Status from H1 to H4 for her. Her status does not convert back to H4 unless you file a COS. As long as you show proof of legal stay in whatever status you were in US, and you have all supporting documents to submit during the visa interview, I dont see any issues for getting your visa. Its good to take all paystubs that your wife got while she was working on H1. I know of one case, where the visa officer asked for wife's paystubs during her H1 status though she was attending a H4 visa interview. She did not have them with her but the officer still granted her the H4 visa. But I guess she got lucky that time and its good to carry them.

As far as I know, you should meet the requirements as of the priority date of the LC, not when the LC is switched. You may want to consult a good attorney on this one.

My old labor from 2001 is now up for review. This past Friday, my company put an ad in the newspaper. Dept of labor asked for
3 consecutive days and 1 posting in the office. Sunday was the first day. Basically I have a question. DOL has already placed an ad
on American job bank. They basically have Bachelors as the requirement. They do not mention what the discipline the bachelors need to be in.
However, the ad my company placed last Friday has Bachelors in computer science or Computer information systems. The job description is the same as the one
DOL posted on American Job bank. Do you think because they just used Bachelors in their posting and my company used Bachelors in Computer Science or CIS will
make a difference. Another words, can DOL reject my labor because of that. DOL, by using Bachelors, they are saying that anyone with Bachelors can apply. While my company is saying, only CIS or CS grads can apply.
Actually my attorney from 2001, made a mistake when he filed ETA 750. He listed education as Bachelors in Computer. So basically the advertisement should have been Bachelors in computer, as such what DOL is asking for. Mirror copy of ETA 750. However my company is saying that Bachelors in Computer is such broad term and does not make sense. That's why they placed the ad with Bachelors in Computer science or information systems. So having said that, what are chances that DOL will reject that advertisement, and make us re do it using Bachelors in Computer like the ETA 750 form is asking. Can we amend the form at this later of the ball game.
The advertisement is like 1000 for 3 days. The company picked up the tab this time, but if it is a mistake then I would have to pay for it. The did not even want to pursue this since they already have PERM and I140 approved for me. Getting this old labor certified for me, I would save a lot of time and be able to file 485 since my date is current. Using PERM priority date, it will take years.
Any thought will be appreciated.
Also, how do I remove him as the contact person for my labor. My company doe not want deal with him anymore.
can they send a letter for Backlog Center in Dallas.
Thanks!

I don't see any relevance of this Bill to our cause. What's the point in posting this here? Or am I missing something?
Congress Passes Border Fence Bill
from: http://www.numbersusa.com/index
Amnesty/Guestworker Programs Denied Before the Election
(September 30): Late Friday evening, the Senate passed H.R. 6061, the Secure Fence Act, by a 80-19 vote. The House had previously passed H.R. 6061 by a vote of 283-138-1 on September 14. It will now go to the President for signature. No further immigration-related action is expected in either chamber prior to the election.
This is a great victory, but much more needs to be accomplished. When Congress begins its post-election session on November 13, the push will begin again to pass additional enforcement measures, such as mandatory workplace employment verification and mandatory federal cooperation with state/local law enforcement, and to prevent amnesty and temporary worker programs from being revived.

Hi ,
My wife is in this situation where she would like to travel to Canada to see her sister.
We applied for 485 and have got out EAD( did not apply for AP, thinking of appying now.)
She has a H1B stamping from her old employer's H1, valid till 2009. She moved to a new company and the H1 there is pending.
Can she travel to Canada and comeback showing her old stamping ?
Are we abandoning the current H1 if we go out while its pending ?
She just wants to see her sister and they wont let them visit either. :(
Thanks a bunch for your time.

Hi,
My 9th year H1 expires this month and I am planning to use EAD to continue in my job (not extending my H1B). Can you please tell:
1) What do I need to do to with respect to Employer and USCIS to move to EAD status from H1B?
let your HR know you are switching and they will have you fill in a new form for their files
2) I read in some forum posts: there is a new law OR amendment - people working on EAD with adjustment of status will be deported.. we need to continue maintaining H1B status..is it legitimate?
No
3) My current Advance Parole is valid till Oct'09. As I move to EAD, is AP renewal required for any other reason other than travel purpose?
EAD and AP are 2 separate things and neither affect each other. They are both based on a pending 485 application and that's about all that is common with those 2 filings.
Thanks
AjaySri

Whats your point? This is not a medical forum :)
BTW, its PPD test and I know quite a few people of Indian origin who had to go for the X-ray. Follow some of the other threads on this forum as well.
I hear a lot about Indian's getting positive PDP (TB Skin Test)result. But when I talked to many of my Indian friends, they say they got negative result. Met only one who got positive skin test result.
Hope this poll sheds some light on what is the percentage of people that got positive reaction to PDP tests. Please participate.

I have received an RFE on my I-485 application to provide a copy of birth certificate. However, I have submitted the birth certificate and affidavits from my parents when I filed for I-485.
I am from India. Since the name is put after few months of birth, my name is not present in the birth certificate. I am not sure if the RFE is due to this. But all the (or most) people from India would be in the same zone, right (not having name in birth certificate) ?
Is anyone in the same situation as me ? What kind of documents have you submitted for the birth certificate requirement ?
Here is my RFE
==========
The documentation submitted is not sufficient to warrant favorable consideration of your petetion/application.
....
Submit a copy of your birth certificate showing your parentage, which has been registered with the proper civil authorities of the country of your birth.
