Why you are concerned? Even my wife opened the company and doing business.... That's what EAD is for....
Chill! Life is too small to worry about such things.. You are not doing ANYTHING illegal by opening a company. If anything, USCIS should be glad that their EAD is helping the ailing economy.

Changing from L1 to H1 has nothing to do with your GC process.
Since you have L1 - you have most probably worked outside the US for at least 1 year with your employer. If this 1-year stint was at a managerial capacity (5-6 people reported to you at least, and you are at least 2-3 positions removed from the entry level) and was within the last 3 years - then you can apply in EB1 category.
I changed from L1-H1 as well. I was not able to apply in EB1 since my 1-year stint was outside the 3 year window.
Whether you can apply in EB1 or not has no connection with whether you are on L1, H1 or even outside the country. The EB1 requirements are similar to L1requirements (in fact identical to L1A requirements) - and that is why you see lots of L1A guys getting their GC early. There is a definite correlation - but no causation.

Do you know Ozone layer depletion is because of Anti-Immigrants?
These anti-Immigrants are all mostly Jobless people who are incompetent in their jobs. They are lazy fat bums who sit on their a$$ and fart all day from behind as well as from their mouth using hate speech. This has caused too much of harmful gases in atmostphere and have depleted ozone. Their extra weight has sunken many couches and added a lot of broken couches in junkyards. These disposed couches are adding extra weight on the earth and causing earth to sink 1 milimeter every year. A new study will soon be reported in the Onion news.

This is what I think:
Report your address moving even within same comunity/zip if you have not done already ASAP.
If the address in Oregon is going to remain your permanent address then you do not need to report your stay in CA.
Hi
I was staying in Oregon.I am working in CA for the last one month.
My family still stays in Oregon and will continue there. We also moved to diff apt one month back in Oregon. ( In the same apt complex/zipcode)
I will stay here in CA for couple of months.
Can I give the present address in Oregon for all of my family members Since my family still staying there.
Do I need to give my present address for me in CA. I may be moving to diff apts here depending on project/confort.
Pls advice.

IN THE CURRENT SITUATION/TREND,
- USCIS throwing RFEs on H1 transfers
- Beware of 140 revocation by your employer though it is not valid. But will put you in mental stress
- Make sure your new position duties and its description and slaray are similar.

this is a little bit off topic, but does anyway know what are the requirements for practicing immigration law in the US? What kind of formal training and bar exam passing etc are needed?
With the extensive practice that USCIS has provided us, atleast in EB matters I think for most of us it will be a cakewalk. Having gone through the process ourselves we also understand how to treat the immigrant (frequent updates, clear answers, be accessible, provide all options and information) and some of us could make very good immi lawyers (once we get our EADs).

Hi,
I am an International Student from India currently on F1 and in the year of 2008. I was offered an internship through my thesis advisor's reference which I accepted. I worked from 15th September 2008 to 31st December 2008. Naturally as I was on F1 I did not know all about the tax, immigration and other laws. So I got an authorization from school for that internship and received a new I-20 (CPT) with that employer's info on 3rd page of it. I worked full time and I always had an impression I was an employee(trust me I did not know any difference between W2 and 1099 that time). I was working in the company and not anywhere else.
The problem arose when in 2009 I got a 1099 MISC instead of a W2. As I did not know about it, I did not complain and I filed my taxes correctly and got my refund. If I knew, they were going to give me 1099 MISC then I would not have accepted the offer. Starting 2009 I was on payroll (W2) and this year(2010) I got W2 for 2009.
So my question to you guys is
1. Was I out of status during the time of 1099 MISC? (I did not intentionally engage in 1099 MISC as I was unaware of it)
2. As the internship was authorized by DSO (in turn Department of Homeland Security) as I received a new I-20 mentioning the employer's info. Did I do anything illegal?
3. If in future, I apply for a H1B/Greencard through an employer(same or different). Would this incident hurt me and may cause denial of I-485?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jay

This is the reply I got back from my attorney.
My case was filed in Texas Center but Texas couldn't process all the applications so they shipped some of them to California to do initial data entry. Now that California has finished with initial entry, they are sending it back to Texas.

04/17/2006: CIS Ombudsman Recommends USCIS Director to Issue Multiple-Year EAD
USCIS has already enacted a regulation that allows the Service Centers to issue multiple-year EAD. However, this regulation has not been implemented by the USCIS because of its impact on the USCIS revenue. The Ombudsman wrote on March 20, 2006 his recommendation to Dr. Emilio Gonzalez, Director of USCIS to implement this regulation on the ground that multiple-year EADs would substantially reduce the USCIS immigration benefits workloads and that if impact on the revenue was the hangup for the failure to implement the published regulation which is a binding rule, the USCIS might consider raising the EAD application filing fees. Multiple-year EAD will relieve the customers from substantial inconvenience and hassle each year. The statistics also strongly support the Ombudsman's statement that issuance of multiple-year EAD would reduce substantially the USCIS workload. For instance, the February 2006 monthly immigration statistical report indicates that the total receipts of entire applications and petitions numbered 409,893, out of which EAD applications numbered 100,051, during one month in January 2006. It means one-fourth of total immigrantion benefits applications and petitions were taken by the EAD applications! This reporter strongly and without any reservations supports the Ombudsman's recommendation and justification! This reporter urges Dr. Gonzalez to implement the regulation as soon as possible.
The CIS Ombudsman also recommends the USCIS to issue EAD valid as of the date of the current EAD expiration rather than the date of approval. Current practice has raised pains and aches to the I-485 waiters in two areas: Potential gap between the date of expiration of current EAD and the date of approval of extension of EAD, and loss of some period of existing EAD when the EAD renewal is issued a few months earlier than the expiration date of the current EAD. Again, we strongly support this recommendation as well. For the memorandum of the Ombdudsman addressed to the Director of USCIS, please click here.

My company filed an I-140 in December 2009. The petition (an EB2) was APPROVED in May 2010. A month or so later, I was laid off but BEFORE the I-485 was ever filed. As far as I know, the I-140 has not been revoked. What are my potential options here? Can I find a new employer to file a 485 provided the new job is similar to the I-140 petition or do they have to start the whole process again?
The new employer needs to apply new labor and I-140. However, You can keep your priority date based on your previously approved I-140.
In short, Your place in line is not changed but the process must start from beginning.

URGENT ACTION ITEM
I've asked this of narrower groups, and no luck so far.
Tomorrow, Tuesday is the last day for this, Wednesday at the outside.
If you are in MI and have an immigration attorney in MI then call him/her ASAP. Ask if they know any motor company or big corporate executives here on visas. If they do we would like one to testify on Thursday. If not testify then at least add name to a list of executives.
Alternatively, if anyone in big motor company knows of foreign executive, either email me contact details, or ask them yourself, if I ask there is no come back on you. For just create a list of foreign executives and give to me with their job titles, and even phone numbers.
We have a plan and we have a chance of getting bill 962 revised.

The 260k�
God knows or who knows why the fluke in the numbers and a lot hurt but not to forget certain services made the big bucks. On an average 65k/year non-Immigrant VISAS are issued by immigration services. The Dept. of State claims that 60k immigrant VISA numbers exhausted by June 29, 07. The total number of applicants in the rat race should sum up to at least 260k as on June07.
Numbers do the math...
The June07 bulletin priority dates for India trace back to EB3-June03 & EB2-April04. At the same time about combined ~65k*4(June03-June07) = 260k were looking forward to get ahead in the rat race. Assume that 70% of 260k i.e. 182k had approved labors/substitution labor. The 182k caused to exhaust the 60k available immigrant VISAS then still about 102k are left in the air as non-immigrant alien workers.
The suck-more theory�
Since, the bulletin was issued on June 13, 07 (13 = dooms day) ~102k rushed to local stores like Sears, Walgreen, CVS for 2�� * 2 �� passport size photographs. The non-immigrant alien workers spent around 182k* ~$60 = $10.9mil for 6 passport size photographs. This explains why Walgreen (WALG) which was trailing at $43.xx on NASDAQ in May07 shot up to $45 in June07 and suddenly tumbled down to $43.xx after the revised bulletin. Certified civil surgeons to perform medical examination pocketed medical history�s best earnings in a span of 2 weeks raking revenues of about 182k* ~$275 = ~$50mil. NASDAQ touched years best @2650 in June07. Immigration lawyers charge about $1500 for I140 petition. Market rates for immigrant 485 petition is about $1400 for principal applicant and extra $750 for each dependent. Assuming that the average spending of 182k(singles, married, 2/3dependent applicants) amounted to $2000 for I140 and $2000 for I485 this totals to about 182k*$4000 = guess what!! $728mil. This means that there should be tremendous sales of Bentleys, Porsches, Lexus, Audis, BMWs this year. Projected sales of luxury cars should touch around $500mil for luxury cars alone in Q3. Till the next Oct07 bulletin keep the retro-guess-on for numbers.
Thanks and good luck!!

Folks,
Desperately need some help here. I do NOT have access to my PERM or I-140 applications and my current employer's lawyers refuse to give me the documents.
I want to get H1 transfer and AC-21 to move to another company since I HAVE the EAD but cannot use it since my wife is a dependent on my H1B.
I am desperately trying to find where to get the "job duties" and the DOT/SOC codes that the new company's lawyer says would be needed to make sure I don't have to go through the PERM/I-140 process again.
PLEASE advise.
Thanks!

clarify21: You can not have two status (ead & h1b) at the same time. Either your are on H1B or EAD (Pending AOS). If you would like to maintain the H1B status, for the part time job, you will have to ask your part time employer to do the new H1B; by having two H1Bs you can work for two employers the same time. By doing this, H1B and EAD both are valid. The moment you use EAD, your H1B status is invalid. Have a talk with your attorney. Hope this helps.

You can take $5k each in cash. And unlimited if it is Travellers checks.ON Travellers checks you are going to pay commission and crap. I do not personally recommend it. I do not know how it is working now adays. You can check on department of homeland or customs website to find exact amount that you can take as cash. And do not take more than what is recommended.
