Hello everyone,
I have a question which I hope someone can help answer.I have applied in EB2 category and am from India.My PD is July 2005. I have used AC21 recently and changed my employer(i.e I am no longer with my sponsoring employer) I have not notified USCIS of the same.
I plan to travel to India during September 2008 and use AP to reenter back into the US. Can someone help answer the below doubts.
1) Since at the port of entry the Immigration Officer will ask whether I am still with the same employer or not- I will have to say I have moved to another company- What happens then?
2)Does using the AP and subsequent answer of "Yes- I have changed my company" trigger a RFE during the GC allocation process since now I have to prove to USCIS that my job is "same or similar" and my pay is >= the pay mentioned in my LC.
3) Has anyone successfully used AP after using AC21 and not had an RFE issued during GC allotment?
Thanks in advance

It just cost 44 cents to file a FOIA. Just file it and think later how much time it will take.

I was on L1B for few years and applied for H1B from home country. First H1 approval was for 3 years. However, the H1 extn was approved for 1 year only, although the request was for 3 years.
Same thing happend for 3 of my friends.
You have to be out of country for 1 year to reset the clock.

Probably this is a case of processing error. The I-485 was denied based on I-140 denial. I would try for MTR on the I-485 with I-140 status.

Employer needs to stop smoking weed and concentrate on work. Jokes apart there was no such proposal ever in pipeline so there is no way anything like this ever was approved. 6 year limit on H1 is a law that cannot be changed by admin process. It needs to pass house & senate. Also 6 year limit makes lot of people go back to home countries and uncle sam can consume their SS & Medicare taxes.

Friends,
I am in a difficult situation. I am in my 6th year. H1B expires Feb 2008.
My company filed labor last year November 2006 and it was denied due to some specific language missing from our application like "All suitable combination of education, training or experience" acceptable. So we ended up refiling our PERM application in July 2007 in Atlanta DOL. It has been pending since then.
Now, because my H1B expires in another 5 months, it is absolutely necessary for me to get PERM approved, then apply I-140 using premium processing and then apply for H1B extension. Based on Atlanta DOL's speed, I'm hoping my labor may get approved in October or November. Last year, when I changed my company, I didn't anticipate that my labor will get denied and on top of that USCIS will suspend I-140.
Does anyone have any insight on when premium processing for I-140 may start again? What strategies do you offer to extend H1B?
Thanks.

As most of us know, Senator Specter and the Judiciary Committee passed a bill last night. All the pro-immigrant legislation remained in there (which is a good thing)
Senator Frist had threatened that he will bring his bill to the floor if the Senate Judiciary Committee does not do it. Since the bill passed the committee yesterday, most people assume that the Senate will debate Senator Specter's bill.
WRONG!
As per this news here http://www.boston.com/news/nation/washington/articles/2006/03/28/panel_acts_to_expand_immigrant_rights/?page=full
Despite yesterday's vote, Senate majority leader Bill Frist warned that he may substitute his bill, which only enforces borders, and ask the full Senate to vote on it instead of the far broader and more lenient measure approved yesterday by the judiciary committee.
In any event, a bruising battle on the Senate floor is expected this week. And even if the Senate approves the committee's bill, any measure that appears to provide ''amnesty" to those who are here illegally faces fierce opposition in the House, which in December passed a bill that would erect a fence along the Mexican border and make it a crime to provide social services to undocumented immigrants.
And while President Bush is a strong supporter of a guest worker program, he has signaled hesitancy to allowing undocumented immigrants to gain legal status.
Basically there is NO guarantee which bill comes to the floor. Please update this thread as you find more information about this

OK. Thanks. Doyou know hwomuch this will delay the approval. I mean the fact that orginal is not sent and we have only a copy.
Internally, NSC or TSC will get ask for confirmation of your labor from DOL. Most of the times there are no issues. The biggest factor to begin with is that instead of being able to do Premium processing and get your 140 in 15 days, now you are looking at a period of 4-8 months in normal processing and there is nothing you can do to speed up the process.

It depends on the I-140 you requested USCIS to consider while you aplied for I-485. There is some process called interifling, where you can later request USCIS to use the I-140 with better priority date against the I-485 so you can avoid multiple I-485.

I asked my company attoreny about this.. he said that immigration petition is I-140 and as I-140 is not filed for your wife (I-485 is already filed for my wife) so I should say No there for my wife's form.
You are right , I just got the same information from my employer and the attorney that I-140 is the visa petition and not the I-485.So for H4 dependents the answer should be "NO"

You are OK per Q25 of USCIS FAQ. Hope this help.
Because, if my applications(I-140 & I-485) reached today(Friday) I am safe as I have included the old filing fees for I-140. If the receipt date is Monday(July 30th), then USCIS would expect me to pay the new fees for I-140. Hence my concern.

Currently, USCIS online case status site is reportedly experiencing some errors. The consumers are experiencing frustration with the incorrect information or outdated information when they check their case status. Apparently, the USCIS has been working on it to fix the problem. Pending that, the customers should keep patience.

thanks for your reply.what do you mean by consular processing?
could i do anything to retain my L1 visa status?
my current H1 employer is least helpful.i am getting worried and would like to continue in L1 for few months until i get a suitable opportunity.pls tell me how i can do that.
pls help.
Consular processing is requesting that the H-1 be approved and you will go to the consulate in your home country to pick up the visa and come back on a new H-1, in this situation, you are not requesting for a change of status when you file for a H-1. Your attorney will know how to file a consular processing case.
