USCIS has recently published a new fact sheet of common questions and answers for members of the U.S. Armed Forces and their families. (http://www.californiaimmigrationlawyerblog.com/Immigration%20Information%20for%20Members%20of%20t he%20U.S.%20Armed%20Forces%20and%20their%20Familie s.pdf) The fact sheet contains the most frequently asked questions that USCIS receives.
The fact sheet is worth reading if you are in the Armed Forces because the answers to some of the questions are different (and usually more advantageous) to members and/or dependents of those in the Armed Forces. For instance, if you are a civilian, obtained your green card through a marriage to a U.S. Citizen and you have been married for less than two years, you must file Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=f858d59cb7a5d010VgnVCM10000048f3d6a1RCR D&vgnextchannel=db029c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1 RCRD) to remove the conditional residence and obtain your permanent green card. You must file this form even if you intend on applying for citizenship a year later. (Persons who are married to U.S. citizens may apply for citizenship in three years.)
Members of the armed forces do not have to file Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence to remove conditional residence obtained through a marriage to a U.S. Citizen, if the foreign born spouse was inducted or enlisted in the military and is applying for naturalization based on qualifying military service. Thus, military personnel are permitted to "skip a step" and do not need to file form I-751.
Additional questions and answers and helpful email addresses to USCIS liaisons are included on the fact sheet.

I am in a strange situation. My wife got her H1B approved with petition starting date 10/1/2006 but never worked. She got her SSN on 02/24/2007. I spoke to the attorney and he gave me 3 options:
1) Change her status to H4 and apply I-485 when she gets the approval notice. But I dont know whether the priority dates would be current then?
2) Send her back to the home country and get the H4 stamped and come back on legal status. I am afraid what if she is denied H4.
3) Apply I-485 and only at the time of adjustment of status, the officer can only decide her case to approve or deny. Till then we cannot know.
What was her status between 10/1/2006 and 2/24/2007 when she didnt had the SSN? Is she considered H1B or H4?
Is anybody in a similar situation and what are the options?
Thanks.

In addition there are applications that are labelled 'EXPEDITES' on receipts. These are applications where the applicant or one of the dependents is between 20 and 21 years old.

This clearly shows - that this article has been at the behest of /or lobbied by the business community and industry leaders.
Because all they want is more H1-B workers. If we put in the same effort to talk about EB - and greencards and educate reporters, we would have articles written that would highlight our concerns.

Thanks for replying, i have some more questions related to this
Lets say my current employer is A and next employer is B
1. Do employers normally revoke I140 when employee leaves ?
2. If my first PERM and I140 was under EB3 category, then can i switch to EB2 category with the next company ?
3. Suppose i leave A and Join B, and after 2-3 months i join another company C, in this case will C be able to port my I140 from A ?

I think it means , can enter country with H1B visa stamped before entering, if Advance parole is not there
What if you have AP but not used it, instead used the re-validation rule to enter into the country, using H1. Would that invoke abandonment of 485?

Thanks for your reply.
The only problem is that she started working from Jan 2008. From Oct 2007 to Dec 2007 she was not working. So I donot have her W2 and neither the paystubs. I do have the joint tax return that I filed in 2007, but that does not have her income. Is it possible to say that she was on leave during this period for personnel reason?

You ve 2 options:
a. Apply COS from H1 to L1 an H4 to L2. But I am not sure whether you can revert back to H1 at a later date.
b. Exit USA an re-enter using valid L1/L2 visa.
I am in a very Bad situation it seems, please help.
I am working in US on L1B visa and Wife on L2. then Wife got a Job and her employer filled her 485.
In the mean time I applied for H1 (through a consultant, to get out of the L1B company). Looks like the H1 Got Approved. Now, I think the problem is, If I switch to H1, then she will loose her job and our chance of Getting EAD will go.
I do NOT want to go for H1, but EAD Is important to me. Is there a Way I can keep my L1? (so that my wife can keep her job)
Please help

saileshdude, what are your details like PD, Service Center, RD, ND etc?
I called NSC, but not info other than pending status.
Excited & Tensed !!
Between, what is G-28 ?
I had a soft LUD on my+spouse 485 application today. I am current for this sept but will not be in Oct. Since there are no visa numbers available, I am guessing this must be either a potential RFE or my previous company lawyers may have withdrawn my G-28 representation
Does anyone know if before an RFE , would they or did they get a SOFT LUD, is this common?
Also if my previous attorney withdrew G-28 forms, will this also result in soft lud?

Have you thought about becoming a volunteer for IV?

My wife is so jealous that if she sees IV site on my PC she asks me to change goo(shit in English) filled dipers of our baby...:eek:

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?

Hello Gurus,
Pl guide me and let me know my options for the below scenario...
1. Me: Applied under EB2 (India) and have I-140 approved in September 2006.
Status as of now : Applied as dependent (secondary) on my spouse 485 and have EAD and AP since July 2007.
2. My spouse : Primary applicant - EB3 (India), December 2003.
As the dates are NOT moving forward for EB3 (India), I want to port our GC application dates from my spouse priority ( EB3- India - December 2003) to mine (EB2 - India - September 2006)
My question is, Can I change my status from dependent (secondary ) on my spouse 485 to me being primary applicant by invoking my approved I-140 (EB2 - India - September 2006), If YES what would be the process.
Thanks in advance
