Hi,
I have H1 that is valid till 2011 but when I entered using H1 ( I had EAD and AP also), the visa officer gave i-94 only till Jun 3rd 2009. I did not notice this error at that time. I realized this when my attorney pointed out this while applying for my new AP. The attorney suggested that I should go out of the country and re enter on EAD/AP and start working on EAD. What are my options ?
1) My EAD is valid till 2010
2) My current H1 is valid till 2011
3) My current AP is Valid till August 28 2009
4) My I-94 expired on June 3rd 2009.
5) My H1 visa stamp expired on May 2009
Should I go to Canada or Mexico and re-enter US with EAD/AP before my AP expires to start working on EAD and avoid any "out of status" issues ?
Does Canada Mexico ask for valid VISA and I-94 to get a visitor visa ?
Should I go to India(my home country) and re-enter US before my AP expires to keep my status ?
Appreciate a quick response as my AP is about to expire.

Hello
As far as I know/understsand : to be eligible for H1B visa for 2010, a company should applke for H1B on april 1st 2010, so that the person gets it by october 1 2010 right??
if the 65000 limit is still available , lets say after october 1st 2010, can the company still apply for H1B after october 1st or november or even ion december, as long as the H1B cap 65000 is still available??
thank you?

What is your qualification?
Masters or Bachelor with 5 years of experience?
It may be safer to apply EB3 than EB2, if you don't have a strong case.
Hi All,
I applied for Labor in EB2 category in Oct 2007. It was pending for 2 yrs and 2 days back my employer mentioned that they see my Labor status as denied and that they have not received any denial letter yet.
My H1 will expire in early Jan 2011, so I practically have around 365 days from now to apply for a new Labor. My questions are
1. Should I re-appeal?
2. Do Labors get approved in re-appeal?
3. Can I start a new Labor application with the same employer simultaneously?
4. What�s a safe category to apply at this point in time. EB2 or EB3?
Thanks

My question is regarding Citizenship. My mother married my step father in the year 2000. They have 2 children one is 7 the other is 9. My mother did not adjust her status right after they married. she waited a few years. She received her green card on November of 2006. "the one that renews every 10 years. This year she separated him because she cheated on her. They are not legally separated or anything like that. She wants to become a US Citizen but we think it might be a problem since this year they did not file taxes together. When she did her taxes she checked the box that says shes filing married but separately. He does not want the divorce but she does. I told her she should hold of on any divorce and see about getting her citizenship first. What complications can she have since this year they did not file jointly. I appreciate your time and any input

I am not a lawyer, so make sure do discuss with a good lawyer. I am just sharing the info that I know.
US labor laws are good that no organization can stop an employee from joining any organization/company. Even if your company made you to sign a agreement, that doesn't hold in front of the law. This law could vary little from state to state, but not to great extent.
If you are receiving calls and emails from your employer, I would suggest, change the phone number, apartment/house, etc. and ignore him. But you should know that at 140 stage you need experience letter from employer. Make sure you can get it from your colleagues. Or you must cut a deal with your ex-employer now.

I have an appointment for H1B visa stamp @ the toronto consulate next week. This will be my second stamp (first one expired early this year).
I received a phone call from the consulate asking for my H1B receipt/notice dates and receipt number, etc...She told me that there is new rule where USCIS has to verify the I-797 petition even though you carry an original approval notice. With this rule in effect...she told me the passport wait time is miminum of 4 days.
I already booked my tickets 2 weeks ago. I'm confused. Has anyone else received a call or have recently obtain H1B stamp in toronto?
I was hoping to come back in few days and now it's going to cost me $$$$$. I wish NVARS told me this when I signed up for the appointment.
:(:(:(
This is the new rule and went into effect from last week of Nov. It is not only for the Consulate in Toronto but all US Consular posts in Canada atleast.

Hi All,
I work for a big software company and they have recently changed their name "XXXXUSA Inc" to "XXXX America Inc". It is just a company name change and everything else is the same. But, we got an email from our Lawyers yesterday that "Your I-485 application remains valid under AC21 portability provisions despite the change in your employment. In order to continue with your existing permanent residence application under the AC21 portability provisions, we will prepare and file a letter to notify the USCIS of the change in your employment from XXX USA, Inc. to XXX America, Inc."
My I140 is approved with XXXX USA Inc and AOS is filed based on that. My concern is that I am travelling to India on AP and come back in Mid May. I have the following questions:
I asked if I can delay this filing until I come back..my lawyers said "While there is no hard USCIS deadline for this particular filing, this project is a high priority for us and our instructions are to complete this project for all employees ASAP. The AC21 filing will not affect your pending I-485 or your entry into the U.S. in any way"
1. Is it true as my lawyers say that there is no deadline to file AC21? My confusion is should i do this or delay until i come back?
2. If they file this letter would there be any impact to the pending I485 and hence my re-entry to US using AP? Because I read so many threads regarding wrong denial of I485 because of AC21? In my case, it is the same company, no chance of I-140 withdrwawl etc...
3. Assuming if I delay the filing, when you enter on AP, i heard they are asking are you still working for the same petitioner? If I some how had to tell them my company name has changed, then would there be any problems because of not filing this?
My POE is SFO.
Please share your opinion guys..thanks for your help.

Immigration Law from Houston Immigration Lawyer - Annie Banerjee Has Just Posted the Following:
Although I am not going anywhere, as summer rolls along, visions of distant lands dance in my head. However, that vision is marred by long lines at the airports--- getting your luggage checked, getting into a plane with carry on bags and no overhead place, and finally the immigration and customs line ups.
This year, for a fee, the Government and even some airlines are helping to ease that pain.
The US Government, (and some foreign Government as well like Holland) has introduced the Global Entry Program. US Citizens over the age of 14 can pay a fee of $100/- (valid for 5 years) and enroll in the program. They have to enter their data in the following web site:
https://goes-app.cbp.dhs.gov/ (http://goes-app.cpb.dhs.gov)
After the completion of the process, there will be a one time only CBP interview.
However, once its complete, you do not need to stand in any immigration line. There are kiosks in most major airports. The traveler has to scan in their passport at airport kisoks, and zoom down to luggage claim.
Similarly, in Houston IAH, international travelers who are US Citizens and has no checked luggage, can go through the lines used by pilots and air hostesses for faster processing.
This process can be used by anyone, but because of the lengthy process to get into the program, its probably feasible for frequent business travelers only. The travelers also get expedited check in in kiosks of other participating countries as well. As more countries sign on, the price may come down. Or this may simply become a requirement for foreign travel in the future. It will save money on personnel for countries participating in this program.
Additionally, some airlines are also letting passengers cut in line for boarding the plane or for checking in for a fee. Both American and South West is going to be offering this perk for a fee ranging from $10/- to $50/- per ticket.
This will be the future of travel, in a world increasingly short for time. But then, in this world, will there even be time for vacations?

H1B Visa Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
Effective January 21, 2010, the Department of Labor's iCERT online system will be updated to allow the submission of electronic prevailing wage determination requests. This electronic process will allow Employers and/or their Designated Representatives to submit and obtain prevailing wage determinations (PWD) for use in the H-1B, H-1B1 (Chile/Singapore), H-1C, H-2B, E-3 (Australia), and permanent labor certification programs through the iCERT portal.
Until January 21, 2010, all prevailing wage determination requests must continue to be submitted by U.S. Mail or comparable physical delivery service to the Washington, D.C. address listed below.
BACKGROUND - On December 19, 2008, the Department published a Final Rule addressing the Labor Certification Process and Enforcement for Temporary Employment in Occupations Other Than Agriculture or Registered Nursing in the United States (H-2B Workers), and Other Technical Changes. The Final Rule implemented a federalized process for obtaining PWD requests for use in the H-2B temporary nonagricultural labor certification program directly from the Employment and Training Administration's (ETA) appropriate National Processing Center (NPC)--which was designated as the Chicago NPC.
Furthermore, effective as of January 1, 2010, the Final Rule also federalized PWD for use in the H-1B, H-1B1 (Chile/Singapore), H-1C, E-3 (Australia), and the permanent labor certification programs.
Requestors must submit PWD requests using the Application for Prevailing Wage Determination, Form ETA-9141 (http://www.h1bvisalawyerblog.com/Prevailing%20wage%20Request%20FORM.pdf).
Requestors must submit PWD requests to the NPWHC by U.S. Mail or comparable physical delivery service at the following address until January 21, 2010 when electronic means are available:
U.S. Department of Labor-ETA, National Prevailing Wage and Helpdesk Center,
Attn: PWD Request:
1341 G Street, NW
Suite 201
Washington, DC 20005-3142
In summary, State Workforce Agencies (SWAs) and the Chicago NPC no longer accept and process PWD requests received on and after January 1, 2010. All PWD Requests submitted on and after 1/1/2010 must be centralized and processed at the DOL Washington, D.C. office until electronic means are available on January 21, 2010.
