I currently have approved EAD, I-140 and waiting for a Visa number to become available. My receipt date for I-485 was July 2nd 2007 and my notice date was September 27th. My employer is closing the IT department in March. Though it has been 180 days since my receipt date, it's not 180 days since my notice date. Will my I-485 processing be impacted when a Visa number becomes available? Also, will it be Ok if I'm out of a job for a short time while I'm looking for my next job? I sincerely appreciate the help and guidance in this matter.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Hi ,
I want to change my wife's H1 to H4.
She got her first approval in oct 2006 and was working as fulltime. after that she coverted to H4 when we visited india. her H4 is valid through oct'09. then we file for her new H1 from company B in march 09 (COS) and she got approval but due to bad market condition she never got project and her consulting company never paid her so she doesn't have any paystubs. My company file for my H1B extension and I got approval.
Now I want to change my wife's status back to h4. I had in impression that she never worked on new H1 so her H1 will not be activated. but I came across some posts and learn that it is automatically activated the day she got her H1B approval.
Now please suggest me what would be the safest way to convert her back on H4 ?
1)File form I-539 without her paystubs using my new 797 document? is there chances of RFE without paystubs? and what could be the next step if RFE comes? can we go to home country and get it done or it will make more complications? and VO will ask more questions because of RFE?
2) go out of county and come back again on existing stammped h4 (I am hoping that will convert her status back to H4)? and then file for I-539 for H4 extension using my new Approval notice? she has canadian PR as well. should she visit canada or india? somehow her I94 on passport has expired in Feb'09 but she has valid I94 on her H1 pitition. should she give her new I94 when going out of country? if she visits canada will they issue her new I94 if she returns back within 30 days?
3) should she go outside country and apply for new H4 using my new approved 797 ?
Please help me ASAP. I am really confused what should I do!!!

Hello,
Does anyone work for Covansys?? I am in the process of talking to them for employment on H1B. Any issues with this company? I appreciate your comments...
They are big and you can join them without any hesitation. I worked for them for more than 6 yrs. I am not working there any more.
They are pretty good at filing H1Bs and GCs. Good Luck

Hello,
Basic question to my current situation and my plans for the future.
If i wait until my PD becomes current for me to file I-485 and once filling is done and i wait 6 months from the filling date to change my job,
1. Am i limited to change jobs only in the same corporation.
2. If not and i decide to start a new job (after 6 months of filling I-485 obviously) with a new corporation can the old company revoke my I-140 and I -485.
3. If yes, then does that mean i would have to start fro the beginning with the new company for my GC processing??
Thanks in advance for answering this complex situation.

It's been a while and I don't remember, what I signed - those were the times of innocence, if you could say that :). The physical copy should represent itself in no time once it is approved. I presume that is how the lawyer comes to know about it.

Moved from GC sponsoring company A to a different employer B using H1B transfer (expenses paid by me).
Now I see that the market is so bad and there are no contracting calls. The only calls that I get is for full time. And I do not know if they would give me a offer letter that is specified in my labor (which is different than what I work).
I am trying to asses the risk of using EAD compared to staying on h1(after spending so much money for transferring).
Please provide your thoughts of using EAD.
Thanks

Company A can not by law press any charges for the filing fees of H1B petition but they might go after you to pay for other costs in case you have agreed to pay for attorney fees.

My job description is "xxx mathematician" on the I-140, but what I'm actually doing is developing and supporting scientific programs. The industry is not IT. If I switch back to IT, could it still be "similar job"?
Could anyone give me some suggestion, or recommend a good attorney for this? Thank you!

Gurus please let me know if there are job prospects for Healthcare Informatics given the economic conditions in USA.
It appears there is a good allocation of 9.2billion dollars for Healthcare IT in the stimulus. Does it provide impetus for this field?
Can an IT company sponsor H1 B for Healthcare Informatics or any of Medical IT fields and if so what would be the occupational code (DOL). What are possible job designation in this field in USA?

I am applying for UK visitor visa. My wife is accompanying me in the trip. Do I need to fill up the electronic form separately for my wife also.
cheers
I don't understand when all these new questions pop-up with new user ID's, I wonder if they really tried to research at least a bit before posting here. Why do they need to be spoon fed for simple questions whose answers are just a 'google' away.
Secondly, the heading is always kind of life threatening..."Urgent", "Very Urgent", "please Help me".....
Coming to your question: The answer is YES. I did not verify anywhere but used my logical thinking. That if you need a visitors visa to travel to UK, then you need a visitors visa for your wife too, to travel to UK, UNLESS she is a UK citizen or a PR of UK.
"Do I need to fill up the electronic form separately for my wife also."
If the form has a provision to include all the names that are going to travel then you dont obviously need another one. Else you need another form.
Thank you.

I am assuming that you are planning to change employers when you change from H1 to L1.
L1 is only for intra company transfers and you needed to be working with the company for atleast 12 months (used to be 6 months till not long ago) before you are eligible to come in on an L1.
If it is with the same company, that you plan to change from H1 to L1, what is the advantage other than skipping Labor certification if you are on L1A?
If you are on H-1, you cannot apply for L-1. You would have to work for a company outside the US for a period of 1 year before you can apply for a L-1 assuming you are in the US currently.

You can use EAD with current employer. I think your company has to do the change your I9 form to EAD. You don't need to inform as you are not changing any company.

Hey,
I was in the same situation like you are now and I wrote a detailed letter with all paper work, 2 color photographs and also the FP notice and explained the situation. I was lucky to see a LUD the day they received the paper work and in 2 days mine was approved and its on its way now.
Hope this helps. I understand this might not be the case for all but it worked for me.

Hi,
My employer applied for my PERM and i-140 in 2005 in the EB-2 category. Both were approved.
In 2007, I left my employer to pursue an MBA, and converted my H-1B to F-1 visa. Now I am planning to return to my old employer.
I would like to know whether
a) if my employer did not revoke my i-140, is my old PERM still vaild? Can I apply for a new I-140 and a new I-485 using my old approved PERM.
b) if my employer did revoke my i-140, is my old PERM still vaid? I know I can retain the priority date, but was wondering what is the status of my old PERM?
Any help is appreciated.
I know that PERM is valid only for 180 days, and an i-140 has to be filed within that time, which was done in my case. However, does the law say anything about PERM validity if the i-140 is revoked?

does the employment letter have to be exactly in the same format as described in 'filing your 485 on your own thread' or can it be a simple letter stating the job title, salary, responsibilities etc?........is it ok to file 485 on my own eventhough the rest of the process was handled by attorney?.......for any immigration matters my company just forwards me to their lawyer.......and there is chance the lawyer might get pissed off if I file 485 on my own.......any ideas?
It can be in any format as long as it lists your title and duties exactly as it is stated in your labor certification.
