Hi All,
I am in a strange situation. I was on H1 and applied for H1 extension, I also applied for F1 and got approved for that. Once I received my F1 approval I told my employer to cancel the processing of H1.
Now my employer says that the H1 was approved. Now which status I am in is the main problem. Can I find out which status I am in by any means? what happens if my employer cancels the H1 will i be on F1 or is my F1 no more valid? please can someone help me as I need to take a decision immediately.

She could join from the day when the papers for transfer was mailed, this is as per AC21 law. She does not need to wait to receive the receipt from USCIS.
my wife is moving to another employer. they filed her h1b transfer 2 weeks back. does anyone have an estimate on when she should get here receipt???

I had applied for my I-140 to seek an extension from Oct-09 to OCT-10..Instead I recieved an I-140 with expiry date of Oct-09 itself..what to do now..I know its a genuine mistake..but not sure how to get that addressed..:confused:
I am confused...I-140 has an expiry date?

Perfect!! Thank you. So that means that the next time the visa bulletin says that it is at atleast May of 06 my green card could be issued? Is that correct?
other things being equal.... YES!

Hello Everyone,
I got a D80 a little while ago, and am slowly learning how to use it. I used to use my dads D70, but decided that it was time for a DSLR of my own. Anyone have any tips or tricks that they have found along the way?

hello..
My h1 is valid till march 2010.. but the i-94 i have is expiring in Oct.. (i changed my job ..and had been out of US..on the old stamping..)
Can iget it extended staying in US? or do i have to leave get it restamped in desh.. ?
Is it illegal to stay on expired i-94..but witha valid H1?????????
The timing of when you travelled and when your extension was approved are critical. It looks like you travelled after the extension was approved, but you just used the old visa to enter. CIS has a "last action" rule, whereby the last thing they do regarding your status is what governs. If you got an I-94 to October 2009, after the extension to 3/10 was approved, then the 10/09 date governs and you need to file an extension. Alternatively, you could travel and return showing the valid visa and new approval to get the new approval date on the I-94.

Hi,
Both me and my wife are on EAD and have valid AP (valid till December 2010), H1 expires in Jan 2011(not stamped on our passport) . Priority date is June 2005, have a job and have current paustubs/w2.
My wife is in India currently - we both are planning on coming back in April sometime with our new born baby. My question is about getting H4 stamped for our baby.
1.Do we need to get our H1 stamped on our passport to get H4 for our kid ?
2.What happens if our I485 gets approved before we get H4 stamp for our kid ?
3.What is the procedure these days to get H4 stamped on passport ?
NS

Hello,
Thanks for the reply!
So the letter is just an employment continuation or verification letter and has nothing that states the spousal details or spouse's intention to accompany the H1 holder. I hope I got that right.
Thanks again!

Haagen Dazs Delhi Says No Indians Allowed
By Kiran Aditham on Dec 15, 2009 12:32 PM
With the opening of its first New Delhi outlet, ice cream brand Haagen Dazs adopted an interesting if not ridiculous policy: those with international passports were allowed in while Indians themselves weren't. Times of India's Rajesh Kalra provides a tale of a friend who was turned away by Haagen-Dazs enforcers. Here's a brief excerpt:
"I immediately called Ramit. 'You are an international traveler, and you have a passport, so you can go in', I said. Ramit's response was instant: I tried to enter but they said you are not allowed for you don't have an international passport. I am normally not given to immediate emotional reactions, but I couldn't resist this time. I was, to be honest, upset. How can they do this to an Indian, in India? Do a story on TOI or NBT? Do it for print or Online? Call other media friends and colleagues? I simply didn't know how to react. Print would have a better impact, but should I wait that long?"
Kalra didn't wait long. He contacted local authorities and used Facebook and Twitter to get the word out to the Indian community and as expected, HD's actions drew plenty of ire. According to BoingBoing, after a fitting public outcry thanks in part to Kalra's efforts, the operator of the franchise (who ironically is Indian) has axed the policy and apparently now claims it never existed.
Kalra, though, chalks this discrimination up to an age-old mentality of some Indian people. "I have often maintained that we ourselves are our biggest enemies. Our mentality is that of slaves and we think anything is good only if its approved by foreigners, or the 'holders of international passport[s].'"

3. Is there a minimum time limit after joining aftre which only I can apply for extension..?
4. Most important, can i apply for extension even after expiry of visa in july,2011...??
Many thanks,

It was a mistake by the guy who stamped I-94 (at CBP).
Her H-4 must be expire on your expiration date.
You need to go to nearest CBP office to get it corrected.
She need deferred inspection to get it straight. USCIS will not do it.
OR Do nothing about it and file H-4 extension along with your H1B extension.
If you do not extend her with your petition, even if she have valid I-94, she may end up in trouble later.

I am a resident physician on h1b visa which is expiring on 6-30-2010 . I am in process of applying for H1B extension for my fellowship. My wife is on H4 visa (expiring in 3-20-2013 since she got 5 yr multiple visa). Recently she visited Kuwait and on her re-entry she was given entry (on her I94) up to 3-15-2013 (up to 5 days prior to her visa expiration). Will she also need extension in this case along with my extension or can she stay in US till 2013 with out extension Thanks.

I am already working on EAD. I have got an employment offer from a big fortune 500 firm as a lead technical analyst. The offer is too good to miss. I am trying to understand in my job will be "same or similar" while my job responsibility was "programmer analyst" in labor certificate and i would get a job as lead architect. Following are some more details about may labor doc.
a) Though my job title is like programmer analyst, my SOC job code is given as 17-2071.00 which is "Electrical Engineer"
I was never an electrical engineer (not even by my education). I do not know why the original filer used such a SOC code. Now my new role (lead technical architect) will have a SOC code as 15-1031 as that is for computer architect.
Morever my new employer will not provide me a Ac21 portability matching my labor cert.
My role responsibility is following as per labor cert.
Job Title: Programmer/ Analyst/Systems, Software/Engineer/Developer, or Related to IT
Reponsibility:
develop, create and modify general computer application software. Analysis user needs and design, develop software solutions. Design, develop, analyse and implement software and end user product. Coordinate various account projects with IT consultants; nurture close relationship with the major account customers by providing quality technical support and apply principles of computer science, engineering and mathematical analysis.
Do you feel that changing the job as lead architect willl be a paradigm shift for me causing my GC gone denied?
Thankis in advance.

keep in touch with me. i will try to go to local office after 90 days (ie after oct 2nd) in case i dont get EAD by then (my lawyer sent my 485 on 6.29.2007) . its just to expedite not for interim EAD. cause they dont issue interim EADs anymore.
but if you have decided to file for H1 then no point in waiting for another month.
in my case the lawyer takes too much money, even though i dont pay directly but it comes out of my salary, ultimately thats why i am not pushing for my H1 extension.
also i am hoping i will get my 140 by then so that i can get 3 yr extension.

Hi,
We will be travelling to India and are looking to book Visa appointment. In Mumbai only first week of december is available. As we have to mail the documents, first week of december is not an option for us.
Has the Mumbai consulate opened the dates for December 2nd week and further or has the appointments been booked?

Gurus,
I have a question. I am a July 2nd 485, EAD, AP filer and I did not receive my AP yet. My H1 visa stamping got expired, and I am planning to go to India for 2 months. Can I leave US before my AP gets approved, hoping that it will be approved in the next 2 months time and my attorney will send the AP papers to my India address?
Is it possible, please advice.
Thanks
There is no official documentation for to do's and to not do's without AP.
But folks have gone to India without the AP and then got it fedexed while In India and used it to get back to US.
My brother in law did the same. I am not aware of the potential issues he might face in the future but will post so when something happens.
use it at your own discretion.
