I meant before I am out of status.
Also, if there are no paystubs for that period, are there any implications in regards to GC processing or any other way ?
Thanks a bunch.

I filed my 485 in EB-2 I, in July 2007. My PD: Nov 2004. I couldn't resist myself from creating an Infopass appt to find out the details of my case. I am in Dallas, TX. Had the appt at 7am this morning and I am pretty happy with the appt. I had a soft LUD on 08/14/09 and was concerned if it was for pre-adjudication. The officer was respectful and answered all my questions. I was asked my priority date, category, country chargeability. He checked the system and told me that the case is pre-adjudicated on 08/14/09 (hence the soft LUD) and a decision has been made. I asked him if he would know the decision and his response was "I cannot officially say that it is in the YES bin, but USCIS does not have to wait for a visa number if it was in the NO bin." I said that I understood it and asked if the namecheck and FBI check were complete. He said, the next step is to approval. I was all smiles.
I checked for my wifes status and he checked the system to say that her case is in the same status. He also added that, her case was last touched on 08/28/09 (No soft LUD).
Final stmt, "You case is very close to completion. Give another 30-60 days and you should hear the good news. Our online systems are not all up to date and in sync. You can always make an Infopass appt to get the latest update on your case. This being the end of fiscal year, with new visa numbers in Oct, you are safe to get an approval soon". I thought it couldn't get any better than this (prior to getting the GC...citizenship.....win a lottery.....start a company....and so on and so on).
My suggestion, if you are current, make an Infopass appt. It is worth it. Atleast, you dont have to check the "Case Status Online" and you inbox every few minutes.
I almost forgot: When the officer(?) said that "...this being the end of fiscal year and new number coming out, you are good", I immiediately asked him "unless the visa numbers are all over for the year and it retrogresses real back than my PD" and his reponse was "I dont think so...atleast I have not been hearing anything about retrogression for now for EB2-I". I hope thats a relief to most of us EB2-I guys. I hope thats the same for everyone else as well.

Hi ,
My wife is in this situation where she would like to travel to Canada to see her sister.
We applied for 485 and have got out EAD( did not apply for AP, thinking of appying now.)
She has a H1B stamping from her old employer's H1, valid till 2009. She moved to a new company and the H1 there is pending.
Can she travel to Canada and comeback showing her old stamping ?
Are we abandoning the current H1 if we go out while its pending ?
She just wants to see her sister and they wont let them visit either. :(
Thanks a bunch for your time.

It all depends on their background check and security requirements.
As a non-US citizen your EAD has the same worth as a H1B for these jobs. Same is the case for LPR's for US Federal jobs with various security clearance checks (where only US Citizens can apply).
I know contractors who work without citizenship, but for a employee it looks like US Citizenship is a basic necessity. Do you have any first hand knowledge? Thanks in advance.

A lot of folks doing OPT from non IT fields applied for this year's H1b through IT consulting companies so that they reserve something like "H1b ticket" and are looking at getting h1b transferred to their non IT companies where they do OPT.
Dunno how all this will work out, will IT consulting companies help these folks to get a transfer as soon as they get approval?? I was under the impression that IT consulting companies want these folks to contribute to their business and not to use it as a reservation ticket system.
All folks trying to do this, talk to lawyers and be careful, don't believe ur IT consulting firms thinking they will give u a smooth transfer.

See a lawyer. He can find out the better job description for you.
He need to file LCA according to these job title.
Consult a reputed lawyer.
I'm on my OPT, basically student F1 visa.
The thing is the company where I work is ready to sponsor me. They only don't know which occupation to write for me in order to be eligible for H1B.
I'm working over there on administrative position and doing various accounting things.
Thanks

As per the new visa bulletin, my PD (Mar/26/2006) goes current from 1/September.
My husband is the primary applicant on the case with me and son as dependents.
485s submitted in Sep/2007. We received RFE for my son application and replied, we received update from USCIS that it reached them in July/2009.
USCIS web case status shows 'initial review' for me and my husband, 'RFE response review' for my son.
As we filed together, does this mean that all three applications were processed and RFE was required only for my son?
Thanks for all your inputs, being a great help.

Currently on H4 and validity expires on 09/23/2010. Can be applied for extension when principal applicants H1B is being extended(from his company), but since I have my H1B case filed with USCIS, will it create any conflict if I apply for H4 extension now? (ideally for 7 days (23rd sept to 30th sept) !! 'coz if approved, H1B status becomes valid from Oct 1st, right? )
Also, is there any rule which states that, when a case is pending with USCIS, legally you are not supposed to leave the country?
Thanks in advance,
Sabitha
your question is that you are on h4 and have applied for H1. Your h4 will expire in sept.
If your h1b is approved, your h4 extension will be invalidated.... i think. check with the lawyer though

Hi All,
A few questions for those who have experience with registering a sole prop. in the US.
My wife is on an H4 visa and has registered a sole prop. earlier this year. Since she is not eligible to work, she has hired a U.S. citizen as a contractor to run the company.
Does owning a company in the US have any impact on our green card application?
Can she draw profits from the company at the end of the year as a return on the investment she made to start the company?
Is she considered a "U.S. person" ( seen in multiple tax forms )?
Is it safe for her to fill out a W-9 form with the FEIN that the company was registered with?
Thanks for the quick response.

My attorney signed my I-485 AOS/EAD/AP applications and posted them on July 2nd as he was in a hurry to apply because of July 2nd scenario. Is it ok for the attorney to sign our papers. Is anybody in the same boat as me. I am a little concerned as the USCIS FAQ says application can be rejected if signature is missing. The application reached USCIS on July 3rd.

- But can a person be unemployed before the 180 days elapse? What happens if person is unable to find a job before 180 days?
- Also, per your information - can the person find a new job, change H1s and then wait for 180 days to send in a letter to USCIS?

>>>>>>2 H1 is possible as long as the hours you propose are within justification.
Is the hour in each important or the minimum wage. I believe it is the mimimum wage that counts.
>>>>>>>Likewise applying for greencard from 2 places of your work may get you an RFE asking for your true intention to work full time for a employer
The greencard is only from the first H1. In fact I have already filed I-485 on basis of my employment with this co.

Hi,
I have my Employment based 485 Pending since Aug'2007 (EB-2, priority June'2006, India) and I am currently using EAD for my employment. I am married to a US citizen and have 130 approved on Dec'2008. I want to know what would be my next step.
Can I interfile the pending 485 with the approved 130? or Do I need to file a new 485 and withdraw the pending employment based 485 once I got the new EAD. or Do I need to go for counselor processing?
Please share your experience on this. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Taxes are paid on earned money only. Not loans.
If your spouse takes a student loan in USA, there are other advantages though. He/she can claim student loan deduction on the taxes !! Not sure your Indian bank would provide the necessary forms to you or if they have a legal obligation to submit anything to IRS here.

My Permanent residency is being processed thru Employer A (I-140 not done yet).
Employer A also holds my H1B. This is my only H1B, and it extends based on approved labor as I am on my 7th year if H1B.
If A files for Chapter 11, will my H1B and permanent residency get cancelled/revoked?
If my current H1B is valid till Nov 2010, and employer A files for chapter 11 in Dec 2010, will I be able to stay/work in US at least till Nov 2010?
What will be my options if H1B / GC gets cancelled? Can I transfer this H1B to a different employer? Or, can a different employer has to file for a new H1B? :confused:
Your answer/advices are highly appreciated.
GC/H1 sponsoring employer filing Ch11 has no implications on your current H1 or pending GC until the company starts liquidating (files Ch7). I have been in the same situation and I just recently used AC21 and changed employers by transferring my H1 to my new employer. Original company has been in Ch11 since Jan'09. My 8-11 yrs H1 extension (based on approved I-140) with my original company was pending when they filed Ch11 and USCIS had no issues approving it in Mar. As long as your current position is not eliminated (laid off), there is no problem. It will definitely be an issue if the company announces Ch7 liquidation before you can transfer to a new employer. Once the company is in Ch7 and USCIS figures it out, then it could revoke your H1 or send a NOID on your I-485. Hope this helps.
