I was told by consulate staff that the PIO card should be endorsed with the new passport # when you renew your foreign passport. I guess if you are traveling with both the old and new passport it should be ok, since they can verify right there. It is also a hassle endorsing the PIO card everytime you renew your passport. If you try to find out from the embassy/consulate ( that itself is a hassle), they will probably try to sell you for an endorsement. I do not know about the fees. I will be surprised if they didn't have one for endorsement.

Nice textures but I don't quite like the left side... I think those yellow lines would maybe make a nice diagonal, starting from the upper left and then splitting either side of the lower right corner.

EDIT: Hope you don't mind, had to make a quick test, a little like this, but I'd like more of the yellow line at the upper left...

I recently changed my job, after getting a receipt from new employer. But I noticed that the attorney has done a typo in my middle name. she added 1 extra letter in the middle. can anyone please let me know if this would create any problem for me getting the H1B transfer approval and what is the way to correct it? Since I have already left my old job, I am kind of worried. Please reply back if anyone has come accross or aware of such case.

Thanks.

One more day gone. A few more to go. Really what more can you do ? You can't do beyond a point. The best suggestion would be to get more PEOPLE knowledgeable about this issue.
The other day I came across one of my acquaintences who is doing pretty good in his area, who came to the US in the mid 70's.We were discussing about things happening in our community, I casually mentoned to him about the Legal immigration issue and he was surprised to hear the EXISTENCE of these issues. That surprises me that so many Indians, who have migrated to the US over past 30 years are either unaware of these issues or just want nothing to do with it. But I'm sure there is a sizeable number who would want to chip in the cause.

Get in touch with people you know and tell them to send faxes to respective senators, call or just support the cause.

MODERATORS: Can u make the WebFax area non-user area, many dont want to register, but are willing to send Faxes etc.NumbersUSA dosent need u to register.

My EAD expires on 07/28/2010. My EAD renewal is currently pending (applied online on 5/18/2010 at NSC). My AP expires on 08/24/2010. I am planning to apply for AP renewal once I finish my move to new address.

So, I really don't know which date to put. BTW, USCIS online application didn't mark that field as required.

H1b extension can be filed only 6 months before so it will be April 10.

Going to consulate 3 months before the visa date - you will not be entertained.

My suggestion is file for H1b after coming back from India.

I work for an India based company that has operations in US. I have been travelling back and forth between India and US for about 8 years now. I am currently in US. My labor got approved this January (PD 7/2004) and my company has filed I140 soon after that. I still have 2+ years on my H1B. I am having to transfer back to India soon and shall be based in India for more than a year. What are the considerations if one has to return back to his/her country after I140 is filed? What is the impact on whole GC process? You response is appreciated.
Thanks.

As long as ur company proceeds with your GC process, you are still in the process. You can always get a h1b extension as you have a approved 140. Unless your company decided that they don't proceed with your GC, you are still in line for GC

Could anyone please respond to this???

Lost I20.
Went to school from 96 to 2000.
WOrking on H-1 since then.
Numerous trips outside. Last one in 2005 on an H-1 visa.
What do I do now?


there should be a copy when you filed ur first h1 b visa. check it.

The only impact will be that you will lose your earlier PD (if 140 gets approved).......Also, it could cause you issues with H1 extensions if you are in 6th year of your H1 and are re-starting the GC process....Note that your LC/I-140 must be filed or should be pending for 365 days or your I-140 must be approved in order to get H1 extensions beyond the 6 year term....

Thanks for the reply.

Your Priority date seems to be Dec 2005 and if i remember correctly USCIS had a memo to complete all Background Check in 6 Months so yours should have been over long time ago.
But Again I am not a expert here and could be wrong, EXPERTS please advise

Does any one know on an average how much time it will take to complete background check?

My PD is current this month and there is background check pending on my case..

What a mean approach....what about people who have yet to apply EB3...guys when are we start supporting future EB appliers as illegals from mexico vote for candidates who support legalization of illegals..

Typical EB approved guy dont give hell to the one who follows...that needs to change and be taken care in all the future proposals coming up from IV..

Hi all
I have I-140 approved from Company A . Company B applied for my H1B extn based on Company A's approved I-140 and got 3 years extension till 2011.

My question:
can I switch to company C now and get 3 more years extension again.? My I-140(company A) has not been revoked and priority date is not current.I want to start my PERM only after joining company C .

Thanks in advance .

Ok, just removed the unwanted extra variable in the OnPropertyChanged

So, now its looks simple,



protected void OnPropertyChanged(String name)
{
if (PropertyChanged != null)
{
PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(name));
}
}

Anyone please share ur opinion.

Thanks

Any opinions please?

Thanks

Q) What happens to the pending AoS application if I switch jobs from current employer to a different employer on H-1B.?
Q) What happens to my pending AoS if I switch job with different responsibilites on H-1B?
Q) 180 day rule of AC21 portability is applicable as of the receipt data or notice date?
Q) Do I need to file AC21 if working for the same employer in a different position?

Many thanks.

I just watched it and its about the citizenship wait!! They talked 500,000 legal latinos not able to vote during this election.

Hello,

I (Indian citizen) am on H1B and wife is on H4 (Canadian citizen). If we plan to get some franchisee and invest money from our savings, will she be eligible for E2 visa and work as an owner?

Thank you!

Is it possible to convert or interfile an existing EB based I-485 application to FB based I-485?

I have pending I-485 through an approved I-140 (EB). PD is not current. I recently got married and my spouse is a US Citizen. We are considering pursueing FB application. Reading through the forums I gather that my spouse has to file I-130 and I file for I-485. My question is regarding I-485.

If I have to file for a new I-485, what happens to the existing one? Do I have to get new medical exam? Can I use existing AP, EAD or can I use EAD/AP that I currently have from my EB based application?

If an interfiling is possible, when should this be done - concurrently along with I-130 filing or we have to wait till I-130 is approved? Also what is the procedure for "interfiling"?

Which option is better?

with your attorney and employer. There is nothing you can gain by worrying about it. If they issue an RFE, then you will ready.

USCIS will not outright deny applications with mistakes as far as I can tell (I am no expert). There may be RFEs or NOID to which you can take proper action.
