I am currently working for a company at Chicago,IL on OPT (Optional Practical Training) period which is of one year. I have graduated as Electical Engineer from NJIT,NJ this year and is authorized to work during the OPT. Unfortunately the OPT is ending on 11th February, 2007.
I applied for H1B through the same company at Chicago but missed it as the CAP was closed by 28th August, 2006. Hence, I am currently working on the OPT work authorization.
I am aware that I will be out of status after February 11th at the end of my OPT tenure. I am planning to re-apply for H1 with the same company again well in time next year. As I will be out of status until I get my H1B application accepted and approved possibly by October'07, what are the best options available for me to legally stay here in USA with a valid status during the period until October 2007. Time is short and I needed to work out some thing quick.
I shall be grateful to any one who could send in your valuable advise.

I am not sure if Attorney is allowed to sign on place where it says : "APPLICANT"
u may have to give written permission/Notarized for that...
By signing Form G28, u are only authorizing the attorney to represent u in this case...not sign for u.

That is what , i don't have any information with me about I140 except the fact that it got approved one year ago and now i applied 485 and got EAD cards also.
IS there any way to get when both employer and attorney is not willing to give it to me ? Or is it really required ?
I dont even have the receipt number.
my point is UCSIS know about approved I- 140 bcz they approved it. Also i am hoping my attorney added some information about the I-140 in my I485 when he applied.. Is that correct ?

Gurus,
I work for company X and in my 9th year H1-B visa. X has filed for my Eb-3 labor and I-140 and I am currently AOS (July 07 filer) on my I-485. X recently extended my H1 through Oct 2012.
I have an offer from company Y. Company Y is asking me if I want H1 extension or H1 transfer? What should I answer them. Which one ensures that I have a 3 year extension. Please advise ASAP.
Thanks.
Are you sure they are asking this question...? Technically there is nothing called 'Transfer'. Its always new H1B sponsor and only you will not be counted against the cap as you are already counted. If you have I140 approved, you should get three extension based on that. Ask them what�s the difference between extension and transfer. I guess their knowledge in immigration is Zippo....take care.

I would be going for my H1B renewal stamping, would appreciate if someone responds to this question.
belmontboy ,
I am in same boat.. I am going mumbai india in feb for stamping. Where are you going for stamping. I heard lately that there is no way we can pre check PIMS. I have asked my lawer but haven't got reply yet.. If you lawer has sent duplicate copy of H1b document to Kentucky Visa center then there should not be issue.( 99.99 % should be safe ).. If not then there is risk involved.

Basically it will be approved as master degree if you have 4 year Bachlore degree and 2 Year Master degree. Any others are risk of approval. Also the job requirement should need Master degree with higher pay(compared to Eb3). I heard some Indians who had MSC was approved in EB2 but I heard lot people got rejected because they it is 3 +2 years term.
Your french degree has no compelling equivalency to a masters degree in u.s. educ. level. specially you are just a neophyte in your field (1yr) better apply in quebec ...:( :(

Group,
This morning I saw a commercial (California Group Blames Immigrants for Climate Change) (http://www.triplepundit.com/2009/11/california-group-blames-immigrants-for-climate-change/)on the local Bay Area channel and was simply surprised, I mean out of words surprised.
I cannot believe how low these anti-immigrant groups can and will go to push their point, which obviously is nothing but full of BS, but it certainly adds fuel to the fire.

I'm currently working for Company A on H1B Visa. My GC is sponsored through Company B as a future employee. I never worked for Company B which has sponsored for my GC. I have applied for I485 and I140 has been approved for more than 6 months.
Company A is going through lay offs and wont be able to apply for my GC. My 6 yr limit on H1B from Company A will expire next year.
Can i apply for H1B extension through Company A based on my I-140 from Company B.
Yes, it is legal, allowed, and possible
no. Comp A cannot apply for H1 extension as the PERM labor is not held by them. What you can do is get an EAD and continue to work for Company A, but then Company A will have to take over the process using AC21

ANSWER:
Your lawyer is partly right. You can either petition once you are a citizen, or you can petition for a "hardship waiver" once you become a LPR(ie when you get a GC).
Not sure if you have visibility into when you may likely be getting your GC, but don't risk fudging the truth on the documents. You might get into more trouble than you already are. Remember that on a temp. visa like the H1, your rights are pretty much limited.
In my opinion, if you really want to stay in the US for the long term, you may be better off separated (unless the law changes), or move to another country. Note that there will be several hardships you may encounter..for example, simple things like opening a bank account, buying a home , renewing a driver's license, etc.,
I know this sounds harsh, but thats how it is. Purely my opinion.......
QUESTION:
He is an undocumented immigrant in the U.S. for more than 10 years. So my lawyer told me that I could only help him to get greencard when I become a citizen. So I have the following questions :
When I do my first time H1B visa renewal, will my new Marriage status disturb me to get the H1B renewal? should I just simply fill in the form saying I am "SINGLE" and not tell the consulate? Will the consulate know?

The Swine Flu saga continues. Mexico reported three new deaths from the swine flu epidemic Saturday and urged citizens not to let their guard down against a virus that has killed 19 in people in Mexico and is spreading across Asia and Europe.
Health Secretary Jose Angel Cordova said Mexico's confirmed swine flu cases jumped to 473, including the 19 deaths. The previous death toll in Mexico was 16. A Mexican toddler also died in Texas days ago, for a worldwide total of 20.
In accordance with measures announced by the Government of Mexico to limit the congregation of large crowds to prevent the spread of the H1N1 virus, the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City and the U.S. Consulate General in Ciudad Juarez advise that most consular services are being suspended. The dates listed below may change. The Embassy and Consulate General will monitor the H1N1 situation continuously during the week and will update information on our website if the dates of the suspension of service change.
Immigrant Visa operations in Ciudad Juarez have been suspended from April 30 to May 8. Immigrant visa and waiver applicants who have April 29 appointments should proceed to the Consulate. The panel physicians are closed. Those applicants who have consular immigrant visa appointments after May 8 and have not yet obtained their medical exams should not come to Juarez until the panel physicians have re-opened.
All non-immigrant visas operations in Mexico have been suspended until May 6.
Consular services for U.S. citizens throughout Mexico will be limited to emergency assistance and to citizenship applications (passports and consular reports of birth abroad, or CRBA). Anyone with passport or CRBA appointments are encouraged but not required to reschedule to a later date. For more complete information on consular operations during the flu outbreak, as well as the latest travel advisory and warden messages, visit http://ciudadjuarez.usconsulate.gov/h1n1.html.

If the non-profit that she plans on working for is (a) affiliated with an institute of higher education; or (b) a research organization;
then she should not be subject to the cap. Otherwise, the non-profit probably is subject to the H-1B cap, so she couldn't start until October 1.

Hello Gurus,
Here is my situation and I really appreciate your advice:
I have filed my I-485, EAD, and AP thru my employer (consulting company) in EB3 category. I have received my EAD and AP but i havent invoked AC21.
I also have approved labor (PD--01/2006), and approved I-140 in EB2 category thru my client's company.
Since, EB3 category is not going anywhere, I am thinking of filing another I-485 thru my client in EB2 category.
1) Is it possible for me to file second I-485 in EB2 category while first I-485 is waiting for approval?
2) Can i port my EB3 PD (12/2003) while filing 2nd I-485 thru client?
Thanks in advance!!!

I applied for my PERM Labor Certification on 06-Aug-2007. My status online shows "APPROVED"on 13-Aug-2007. My Lawyer says that the HARD COPY is needed to move forward (My priority date is Jan-2006 from a prior Labor/I-140 approval).
1. How long does it usually take for the Hard copy to reach the attorney's office after approval.
2. Is there any way I can apply for I-140/485 by August 17th given that my status shows "APPROVED" as of today (August 14th).
Any suggestions?
This is another classical case of attorney screw up. If only your attorney had filed 6 days earlier, you could have filed for your I-140 and I-485 concurrently.
