I guess you need to give them a little bit more time. Watch out for visa bulletins till the end of this year, maybe that will give us some pointers.

Hello Chi,
I don't think there is any restriction on other income till it is not from a breach of your visa status. You can earn income from a business as a passive partner, but not as an active owner while on H-1B or H-4.

stucklabor,
Thanks for your post. It's good to hear the perspective of a core member of IV like yourself. I understand your point of view but respectfully disagree with your definition of the greatest good. The greatest good will not be achieved by just passing the labor cert. stage. The greatest good is achieved once we have the GC card. Your effort on retrogression to benefit 250k & 200k is plausible. But you help them to pass one bridge, to just get stuck on the next. If there are 25k people stuck in name check at this time, imagine what will happen when the estimated 200k-250k reach that stage.
If the 25k spent in average 3 years in the name check, what will be the wait time for that massive population that are headed that way after retrog & labor cert? The EB process is a big picture and the greatest number will not get the greatest good until all these obstacle are resolved all the way to the end.
sroym, i think the point stucklabor was trying to make is, that currently most of the people are stuck in retrogression and labour which makes things far more unbearable than actually having an EAD/AP and such benefits. There is a whole thread on this discussion where members of all nationalities have complained about IV not taking the FBI name check issue seriously. I think the moot point that IV core members are focussing on is, the fact that retrogression is making life unbearable for just about everyone. Plus given the following facts:
1) A Serious Majority of the IV members are affected more by retrogression+labor as compared to FBI name checks. and
2) IV core members have full time jobs and spouses and are working pro-bono for the good of everyone and money collected is also coming in slowly and thorugh the IV members themselves.
These 2 facts mean that both time and money is at a premium and they have to spend it solving the problem they originally started to solve. Believe me, some of the core members themselves are stuck with the FBI name check issue for the past 2 years or so.
Given all these facts, you have to understand where IV and it's mission/policy stands. To my understanding the policy is "One step at a time".

Your 797 approval notice will have updated I94 which will supercede your previous I94. The new attached referes to your 797 number starting with "RAC" or "WAC" like that.
You need to submit this one too along with any old ones you have when you leave the country.

I applied my first H1B extension through my company in June 2008. On 11th Feb, I received REF. I am very much tense about it. Since I am out of project. I got cleared my I 140 with this company in July 2008.
I applied H1B transfer(Normal process) also in October 2008 to other company . This one is still pending.
I am very much tense about my status. Please suggest me what to do?
Is it better to answer to RFE for first company?
or
Can I do PP with second company? or else any better thing?
Thanks
Vidya

Why shud he call the anti immigrant by that filthy word when all or most of what that guy conveyed with his post are nothin but pure facts. There r hundreds of gultis doing all sorts of illegal stuff in the name of immigration without any shame. Theres a saying that goes like..."If u tell someone as it is, he protests and kicks on ur chest" which seems very appropriate here.
I remember, you were the one to fuel fight between Andhrites and others. You were also active on threads on Muslims vs others.
What is your agenda, notmybuddy?
You need to also correct your fake profile if you want anyone to take you seriously.

My H1 B expires this December. My lawyer has filed for extension. Looks like I will get my extension approved only in Jan. He mentioned that I can work on a pending H1-B extension for 240 days. Is this true? Also can I get my DL renewed using the H1-B receipt notice? Gurus please advise.
You may want to go to your DMV and inquire. You may want to switch to premium processing at the end of Nov. if at that time it is still not approved, if you have to drive to work.

Gurus,
Here is my situation:
I-140 approved - PD: May '06
I-485 filed - July 30 '07 (India)
EAD cards - Received
APs - Received
Due to a slowdown in their business, my employer is laying me off in Dec '07. I'm still short of 1 month to complete my 180 days of I-485 filling. However, they said they will not withdraw my I-140 and, to help me, will in fact keep me on their payroll until Jan '08, with my Jan '08 salary as my severance and my official status as on "paid leave". So far, so good.
I also have a job offer, and my new employer wants me to join them in Dec '07, on EAD. My question is: Can I be on officially on the payroll of two companies simultaneously on H-1B and/or EAD? If yes, do I need to inform the USCIS of my status (new employer; AC21)? My other option is to say No to the new (attractive) job offer (or to try to convince them to wait until Feb '08, which they'll likely not agree to), and and take up another job in Feb '08, on EAD / H-1B transfer, using AC21. Please advise whether I'm fine with using the first option!!
you can be on the payroll of 2 companies on H1 if the H1 petition says that its for concurrent employment. On EAD no such issues, you simply sign new I-9 forms with both employers.
If you are moving to EAD, you can start with second employer right now. If you are going to stick to H1 for some reason, then delay joining the new one by just a few weeks. By the time they file the H1 transfer and the approval comes through, your 180 days will be done or nearly done and you are all set. Its nice that your current employer is helping you out through the 180 days.

Latina: If you are correct then, since it is mentioned in so many posts that IV should achieve a non country quota, it should be clear for us (Rest of the World) category that this won't affect our waiting time; because if you are right that the Sernior voices were never advocating that the Worldwide Category will suffer any delays, it gets confusing after reading so many junior posters talking about not having a per country quota (just one line), that for newbies like me it is not crystal clear, of course I am all for the unused portion of the numbers for Worldwide category going to skilled immigrants from non worldwide rather than to anybody else.

He will be out of status. Your 3 year extension beyond the allowed 6 years is based on that LC/I-140 from which your I-485 was filed. If the I-485 is rejected you have no right to stay beyond 6 years....
Total BS and Incorrect.
One can work on current H-1B (irrespective on basis it was approved), until the H-1B petition is revoked or canceled or expired. However, beneficiary is not eligible for new/extension of H-1B after I-485 denial.

same story for me, i just moved to different unit in the same apartment. everything remains the same. Same city, same zip code, same employer.. Somehow i believe address change triggered the RFE. Probably the change in the file pushed my file in FIFO and someone looked into it and gave a RFE. Will have to wait till i get the actual letter.

It's important to have the goal clear. Trouble with "Truth based Stories" is that they deviate very soon from the truth & start focussing more on the aspect of entertainment (American Gangster as a recent example). I don't like the idea of diluting the subject to make it more entertaining.
Entertainment means different things to different people. There has to be a target audience in mind before making a movie. The larger the target audience you focus on, the lower the common denominator becomes. This is the reason Lou Dobbs has a bigger audience than Bill Maher.
I think the idea of documentary is more true to our purpose even if it may reach fewer people.

Guys dont get trapped. Since USCIS is exposed now and forced to accept 1 million application for AOS, these things are coming up. USCIS and DHS are the pets of US Govt. Govt wont let them down under any circumstances.
Now that USCIS and DHS realized the moster coming on their head down the line in the name of GC / EAD / AP and they have maintained the lie with dis-honesty all these years that they could not process 485s because of the lack of resource, they have fallen flat on US Congress to bail them out. Whatever solutions they have had in their disposal all these years they are taking them out and discussing with congress. If they wanted to be really helpful to the highly skilled immigrants, they should have done this long back. All these days they all were anti-immigrants and the ex-director of USCIS was a active member of anti-immigrant community.
You dont have to do anything. Just sit and watch the fun with USCIS. They will come up with solutions and get it passed with congress and they know better than any one else that they are in trouble without solutions. Lots of LAWSUITS will follow in next few months if they dont do their job on time.

************************************************** ****
ONE BEDROOM FLAT... AN INDIAN SOFTWARE ENGINEER'S LIFE...- A Bitter Reality
As the dream of most parents I had acquired a degree in Software Engineer and joined a company based in USA, the land of braves and opportunity. *When I arrived in the USA, it was as if a dream had come true.
Here at last I was in the place where I want to be. I decided I would be staying in this country for about Five years in which time I would have earned enough money to settle down in India.
My father was a government employee and after his retirement, the only asset he could acquire was a decent one bedroom flat.
I wanted to do some thing more than him. I started feeling homesick and lonely as the time passed. I used to call home and speak to my parents every week using cheap international phone cards. Two years passed, two years of Burgers at McDonald's and pizzas and discos and 2 years watching the foreign exchange rate getting happy whenever the Rupee value went down.
Finally I decided to get married. Told my parents that I have only 10 days of holidays and everything must be done within these 10 days. I got my ticket booked in the cheapest flight. Was jubilant and was actually enjoying hopping for gifts for all my friends back home. *If I miss anyone then there will be talks. After reaching home I spent home one week going through all the photographs of girls and as the time was getting shorter I was forced to select one candidate.
In-laws told me, to my surprise, that I would have to get married in 2-3 days, as I will not get anymore holidays. After the marriage, it was time to return to USA, after giving some money to my parents and telling the neighbours to look after them, we returned to USA.
My wife enjoyed this country for about two months and then she started feeling lonely. The frequency of calling India increased to twice in a week sometimes 3 times a week. Our savings started diminishing. After two more years we started to have kids. Two lovely kids, a boy and a girl, were gifted to us by the almighty. Every time I spoke to my parents, they asked me to come to India so that they can see their grand-children.
Every year I decide to go to India. But part work part monetary conditions prevented it. Years went by and visiting India was a distant dream. Then suddenly one day I got a message that my parents were seriously sick. I tried but I couldn't get any holidays and thus could not go to India. The next message I got was my parents had passed away and as there was no one to do the last rights the society members had done whatever they could. I was depressed. My parents had passed away without seeing their grand children.
After couple more years passed away, much to my children's dislike and my wife's joy we returned to India to settle down. I started to look for a suitable property, but to my dismay my savings were short and the property prices had gone up during all these years. I had to return to the USA.
My wife refused to come back with me and my children refused to stay in India. My 2 children and I returned to USA after promising my wife *
I would be back for good after two years.
Time passed by, my daughter decided to get married to an American and my son was happy living in USA. I decided that had enough and wound-up every thing and returned to India. I had just enough money to buy a decent 02 bedroom flat in a well-developed locality.
Now I am 60 years old and the only time I go out of the flat is for the routine visit to the nearby temple. My faithful wife has also left me and gone to the holy abode.
Sometimes I wondered was it worth all this? My father, even after staying in India, had a house to his name and I too have the same nothing more.
I lost my parents and children for just ONE EXTRA BEDROOM.
Looking out from the window I see a lot of children dancing. This damned cable TV has spoiled our new generation and these children are losing their values and culture because of it. I get occasional cards from my children asking I am alright. Well at least they remember me.
Now perhaps after I die it will be the neighbours again who will be performing my last rights, God Bless them. But the question still remains 'was all this worth it?'
I am still searching for an answer................!!!!
