Sorry to hear about your upcoming hardship..
I 've had a similar situation recently - where my H1B (with employer A) was about to expire and then another employer (B) had to recruit me, they filed for transfer+extension.
In I129 while filing, they would have to select (cant recall the exact verbiage) new employer (related to transfer) AND extension of current status. Its better to file this kind of petition premium. I got the new approved petition within 2 weeks with new expiry date as +2yrs, with start date earlier than the H1B expiry date (with A).

Dear Friends,
I have changed my employer after 180 days of my pending I-485. I have not communicated USCIS about this. I was able to renew my EAD, and AP online with proper documentation without any issues.
I am planning to travel to India on Advance Parole now. Wondering if I can show my former employer's documentation such as I-485, I-140 approvals if anything arises while going or returning. Do you anticipate any issues with this? or do I need to carry any information about current employer, and my Job?. Appreciate your help.

Hi,
I anticipate an inevitable situation arising out regarding my parents' health, that would require us to move back to India sometime in 2007. My EB2 NIW PD is Dec 2004. Does somebody out there with knowledge about issues and procedures connected with transferring from AOS application to Consular processing in India?
Thanks.

Thanks for reply
How can I find was it for misdemeanor or battery or felony?
I-485 part III would require you to answer 'yes' to the following question:
Have you ever, in or outside the United States:
been arrested, cited, charged, indicted, fined or imprisoned for breaking or violating any law or ordinance, excluding traffic violations?
Your best bet would be to conduct a background check in your state to see if it shows up on your record. You might want to consult a lawyer to see if this shows up in police or other records as well. Ironically I recently heard of a lawyer who recently advised someone to answer no to the question for a DWI since it was a 'traffic violation'. Note that if you answer yes you have the opportunity to explain on a separate piece of paper.

Hello
I have got done my medical exam required for adjust of status.
My doc gave me only a single sheet of page in a sealed envelop to send to the USCIS for the purpose.
My QUESTION is, is it only one page to be submitted in the sealed envelop, as the form doesnt have any of my passport details or reciept numbers for the form 140's/485
The doctor should have given u a sealed envelop, how do u know there is only 1 page? 4 pages of 693 are basically the same form, 4 copies. I think you should be ok, Doctors dont mess this us usually. You need to send this envelop with your papers. Passport number and receipt numbers are not needed, how would you have the file number if you havent filed 485/140 yet?
He has only given me page 3 of the attached file, is that sufficient?
http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-693.pdf

Please advice as i have recieved an RFE for this in January and have to submit it in a timely manner.
what's in the RFE?
Thanks.
Sorry, need more info about ur RFE

Hi,
I don't have any intention to change job after I pass 180 days of my I485 receipt date. But these are my concerns
If I get the green card, Is it mandatory to work for the original sponsor company for 6 months? or AC21 Portability will work in this case.
What if the following happens when I get the green card
1. Layoff from the sponsor company
2. Sponsor is out of business or compony does not exists
3. Refuse to give employment
Thanks

Hi Folks,
It is crunch time! Since PD are current, many folks have only until June 30th to extend H1 visa for 3 yr. extension. So only 15 days left!
How much time has it taken for members to get 140 approved though PP? I value your feedback, or pls. point me to a poll/data elsewhere. Please also state when was the timeframe you applied/for it approved (day/month/year)
Thanks & Regards!

After filing 485, Is AC21 based changing employment is legal only when using EAD or it is applicable for H1-B transfer as well?
History - I filed my 485 in EB3 PD March 2004. Married after that, waiting to file my wife�s 485 for PD. Hence I am maintaining my H1 as well as H4 for my wife.
I can�t use my EAD.
I am working as software engineer at a client location for the past 8 yrs. A corporate wide new policy at client location forces me to take full time or quit the job as not allowing a contract for more than two years continuously. I work for a very small American Consulting company and one or two employees in W2. Hence my option to get another client is very limited.
I like to see what are the options legally can be possible without affecting my GC and legal residency of me and my wife.. I am now on my 11th year on H1 -B
Can I switch to new employer with a H1 transfer (not using EAD) using AC 21 where the 485 was filed by different employer. Is it possible / I mean using H1B to a new employer not EAD. And extending the H1-B continuously?
In case if I switch my job, and if the PD become current what are my options? Is my existing 485 application still valid? Can I file my wife�s 485 during the time.
Can I continue extending my H1-B based on my old I-485 EB3 with the new employer more than one time. assuming my PD may take more than another 3 yrs.
Do I require to start again my GC process? Or Can I continue with the same existing filed application?
I can start a fresh GC with the new employer with EB2 as I gained another 6 yrs experience. But don�t know how long it takes, Can I continue extending my H1-B based on my old I-485 EB3?
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks

Murali,
Your India visit should not affect your gc. I know of several people who have gone out of the country after filing 485 (even without getting receipt). In one scenario, someone's application reached on 2nd and left the country on 3rd (with lawyer's approval). Ideally, you should wait for EAD/AP but according to my lawyer, it is ok to go out as long as you have a valid H1 stamp which allows you to reenter.
The only thing I can think of that can be impacted is your fingerprinting. If you get a notice while you are gone and don't return before the due date, your case will be considered abandoned (it is noted on the fingerprint receipt). To avoid this, inform your lawyer when you leave. They too get a copy of fingerprinting notice and can get it postponed for you if you are out of the country. Also make sure your mail is picked up regularly just in case USCIS tries to mail you some letter/EAD.
As always, check with your lawyer to get final opinion as your case is best known to him/her only.
My 2 cents, hope it helps.

Sure can! See the tracker. There is at least one person who filed in Texas and has his/her EAD approval date before the Finger Printing date
I also had got my EAD way before my 1st FP - but that was in 2005
Did anyone get I485 based EAD before the first FP? Thank you!

Travelling via UK is OK as long as you have GC or a valid US Visa stamped in the passport. Even if flights are delayed, staying at the airport is no problem. The problem is not in UK but at the time of boarding in home country. Once you are on the plane....you are fine.

Dallas-Fort Worth Immigration Lawyer Has Just Posted the Following:
“If we are truly going to fix a broken system, Congress will have to act”
The following is a statement from Lynn Tramonte, Deputy Director of America’s Voice:
We have entered a new chapter and a new phase in the immigration debate. Secretary Napolitano today laid out the framework for fixing the broken immigration system, and the solution is comprehensive immigration reform. Drawing on her years of experience on the southwest border, and her new role as the nation’s top homeland security official, she said that we need Congress to pass comprehensive immigration reform, and create immigration laws that truly work for our country.
Reform will secure the border, protect all workers, and require undocumented immigrants to register for legal status, pay fines and taxes, clear background checks, and get in line for citizenship. This will benefit all Americans by strengthening the rule of law, bringing in more taxpayers, cutting costs for enforcement, and making our nation’s borders stronger and safer. Now is the time for Congress to take the next step and pass legislation that would accomplish these goals.
As Secretary Napolitano pointed out, the American people support comprehensive immigration reform, and the debate we are about to engage in is not the same old debate. Law enforcement, labor, business, faith, and community leaders are all demanding comprehensive reform for our nation’s security, economy, workers, and families. We have a new President, who was elected because he promised to address important problems like this with practical solutions. We have a new Congress, with leaders who also promised change and progress to the American people.
The Secretary’s speech today was an important moment, but it was just the opening bell. It’s now time for Congress and the Administration to put serious muscle behind advancing the proposal – and it’s time for politicians of all political parties to set aside partisanship and demagoguery, and do what’s right for the country.

Dont flll 1040 by yourself if you are not a tax expert.
Line 34 in 1040 is tuition and fee deduction and you have to file form 8917.
get Some software such as Turbotax or Taxcut
Are you serious? I must be a super expert on taxes because I have always done it on paper using a calculator for the last 14 years and counting. Just spend an hour reading the instructions and you're done. Have a question, call the IRS. Unlike other government agencies (cough.. USCIS cough..) the agents at the other end of the line are actually helpful and responsive.
