Thanks all - I understand an independent status for my wife is the solution. But saying that and working that out in real life is the difference.
a) When peoples like me who are working here for 9+ yrs is having a hard time finding a new Job on H1 ( not just consulting employer a real employer) because major companies are scared of hiring a new H1 until the dust settles - It will be way difficult for my wife to create a new H1 position.
b) Regd. F1 it has to be a fulltime course and we have a 2 yr old Kid. Sending him to daycare , finding a Fulltime course for a new F1 and funding both operations by a single Job may be another challenge.
I was wondering if the respected lawyers here at IV could first show me some direction and i'll follow that.

Guys
I'm facing a similar situation. I got the receipt from them on July 23rd but yet to receive any decision(non premium), my previous visa expires on Nov 5th. I know I could continue to work as long as I have the receipt but my DL expires next week as well. I urged my HR to do a premium processing now but he states that it's more likely to get a RFE for the premium processing which will make the process even slower and also claims that both the regular and premium processing is done by the same center (Is this true). He says that my original decision would anyways be here by mid November, so not to worry. I also have travel plans by during the Christmas holidays so getting a bit anxious with the whole thing. Is it normal to go over 3 months for a decision for a regular process? (California processing center's avg time is 2.7 months) Is it beneficial to do a premium processing now? I would appreciate a reply.

Dear All
I will be thankful to you if i can get the responses from some folks who have gone through the situation like mine.
Here is the summary of my case -
1) Came to US in 2004 on F1 visa.
2) Got the job in 2006. Company A applied for H1B in 2007. Got H1B visa stamped on passport valid from September 2007 to September 2010.
3) Was laid off on 16th Novmeber 2007.
4) Company B applied for H1B petition on 21st December 2007 using regular processing. No pay check from company B.
5) Company C applied for H1B petition in March 2008 using premium processing. Comapny C applied based on A and not based on B.
6) Company C's petition got approved but with I 797 B. No I - 94 attached. Attorney asked me to leave the country and come back with a new I 94 as i have an almost brand new visa. I did so. And started working with Company C. Meanwhile, company B's petition was approved in May 2008 without Adjustment of Status (means no I 94 attached only I 797 B)
7) Worked with company C from April 2008 to September 2008. Although, no pay check from 16th November 2007 to 1 April 2008 because company B did not provide any.
8) Got the job with company D. Company D applied for H1B petition and it was approved with I 94 attached ( means I 797A).
Now 2010 is coming and my visa will expire in September 2010.
I want to go to India to get the H1B stamp on my passport with the current employer's I 797 (which is employer D).
I do not have any documentation from Company B except receipt number for H1B petition. I do not have any pay check from company B.
I have paycheck from 1st April 2008 to 31 September 2008 from Company C and 1st October 2008 to till date from Company D.
Will i face problem during visa interview?
I am thankful to your comments and suggestions.
Thanks
Even though the consular officer will not ask for the paystubs from that far back (since it is only required for the current year), he may review your tax returns from previous years(since I think it is still a requirement to bring all the tax returns for all the years you have resided in the U.S for a visa interview) and may find that your income on that year's tax return was low and ask you what happened. I am not saying he/she will for sure but, am asking you to be prepared to answer that question. Also, please be honest with your answer as they do sense a lie a mile away.
Also, on a side note, if you have applied for Greeen Card, Please complete your profile to the best you can.

my current employer filed for my labor in march 2005, got approved in march 2007, filed I-140 in April 2005,and while I-140 was pending filed I-485 in july fiasco. In sep-2007 got intent to deny of I-140 based on A2P(ability to pay), employer filed M.T.R in October 2007. I have my fingered crossed looking at the financial statment from employer for the year 2005. chances are the MTR will be denied too. Now I have a new job offer from another employer who is willing to do new H1b for me and may be a labor petition too. the question is I want to see what comes out of the current MTR. Here is the question;
1/- if I tell the current employer to contine the process(which I dont think he will have problem with) and join the job on h1b will my I-485 status be changed or will it effects the current process?
2/- I am currently runnig on sixth year of h1b and my current visa expires in 2010 bades on the pending process with current employer. if I join the new employer on h1b what will be the H1b status will be?
thanks for the answers in advaced
a. You wait for MTR results and make a decision based on that
b. If you MTR is denied, you will have to start your GC process from scratch (labor -> 140 -> 485) because your 485 is automatically denied - so do not think of using EAD or avail AC21.
c. since you have an approved H1B till 2010, you can transfer it to new employer - ask the new employer to GC, and you will become eligible for further H1 extensions.
consult a lawyer immediately as yours is a tricky situation.

hi boney. excellent advice so far. i'll just add that you should also take into account how one camera "feels" in your hands vs. another. you might use that as a tie-breaker or a major decision point in your purchase. but luckily for us most of the manufacturers have a different feel, including grip sizes, curves, location and operation of the controls, etc.

Any updates on the RFE? wish you have solved problem. Realy want to hear about it cause I am in the same hot water now.
Friends,
This is my first post.Any inputs would be highly appreciated.
My PD is jun 2005 (EB3) and i submitted my AOS in jul 2007. I got laid
off from my company on March 13 2009.My company lawyer told me that
they wont send anything about my GC application but they will have to
send notification revoking my H1B to USCIS as per the law. I guess
this could have triggered my RFE. I applied for EAD immediately as an
AOS applicant and got it on march 31 2009 ( for 2 years)
I recently got an RFE asking me to re-submit G-325A ,Current
Employment verification letter and proof of employment after march 13
2009 ( this could be my EAD,I-797C for EAD or I-94: further confirms
my suspicion about revoked H1B triggering RFE). Right now I don't
have a job and it doesn't look like i will get any before may 31st
2009 (the deadline for answering the RFE). What are my options?Here is
what I read and thought
Option 1:I have an EVL from my last company dated march 2 2009.Can I
send that ?In my G-325A I would though need to mention the exact dates
with no present employment.Can it lead to automatic denial and make me
illegal? Should this be an option? My assumption here is that the RFE
is just to complete the documentation and that the case will be
adjudicated when my date becomes current.Before that I should be able
to get a job and send the paperwork.
Option 2:I also read on Internet that I can send a future intent of
employment letter/good faith letter from a consultant/company saying that they will hire me in future. Does this or can this work? If so what could the
possible language of that be? This can give me time till my date
becomes current (which should be good enough to find a new job) .
Option 3:I talked to a consultant and he is ready to give me a EVL .
For this he would need to put me on his payroll ( obviously at a big
cost) .He said that i would have to be on his payroll for atleast 3
months( so that he is safe).This way i get EVL.Cost is too much and difficult since my income is current not there .
I really don't know anything beyond this. I would really appreciate
your opinions on the feasibility of these options or any other ones
that might exist. Right now I am lost and dont know what works best
for me.
To maintain my status is filing COS(I-539 ) for B2 (tourist) a good option?
Thanks and really appreciate any input.

I filed my H1 extension in late February and got it approved in mid March. This was not premium processing.
It was the extension beyond 6th year. Extension got approved for 3 years since 140 is thru. My current H1 expires in August and the extension will go into effect from then. I've been with the same company for last 6 years and had no issues.
hope this helps..

Such are the erratic ways of USCIS that we are all in the paranoid zone. When you get the unexpected (i.e. paper mail and no online approval) it does make us wonder and asntonished. There is an old Turkish proverb "When you burn your lips drinking hot milk you start blowing on your yogurt"
I hope sense prevails and all the EB2s whose PDs are current get their GCs.

So you mean to say that I will get the Approval for Visa Transfer, but with consular processing and I need to Travel to my country of origin to get Visa stamped and I will get new I-94 when I enter US again.
Am I correct?

I would be appreciated, if people returning at NJ Airports can post their experiences of Successful re-entry . That would definitely be helpful to all other people, who will have to travel, in case of Emergency.
I and my wife entered successfully at EWR, end of Feb this year. I'm on my 7 year on H1-B that was stamped just a month ago in Ottawa Consulate in Canada. Also, I had new passport renewed from India. My Visa was stamped on my old passport that was expiring in Dec 2009.
My wife is in her 4th year (2nd extension) of H1-B and her Visa was stamped as well, a month ago at Ottawa Consulate.
There were no issues at all at POE. We were asked what we did at our respective companies, but were not asked for any letter etc. Both of us are permanent employees in our companies.
Feel free to PM me if you have any specific question regarding our POE experience at Newark Airport.

Another option here -
I was on H1B for about 4 years and after that on L1A via a COS for the last 1 year. (total 5 years). Currently I am on L1A with company A.
If my future employer B files for my H1B I don't have to go thru the cap/quota since I already was on an H1. I assume this is correct.
- So till the time my H1B is approved can I still be with employer A on L1A visa?
- Will moving to H1B with company B be my choice (of when I want to resign from company A and move to B) or will I be forced to join company B as soon as my H1B is approved?
- Parallel to the above company B files my GC.
Can this be done?
Thanks for all the help.

Hi,
I need some URGENT HELP here. My I-485 was denied and so has been MTR filed by my attorney. To give you a quick background of my case:
I-140 approved in 2007
I-1485 in August 2007
Received RFE in May 2009. The RFE had two parts to it that are as follows:
Part 1: Request for Evidence for Birth
Part 2: When I filed the application, the following question was left unanswered by mistake:Have you ever, in or outside United States been arrested, cited, charged, indicted, fined or imprisoned for breaking or violating any law or ordinance, excluding traffic violations
When i sent the response, i included birth certificates for wife and I but somehow both my attorney and I did not notice that we failed to answer the question - the second part of the RFE. Because of which my I-485 case got denied.
Within 3 days of receving the denial notice, I , through my attorney filed a MTR that included a signed declaration that I have never been arrested. Today I received an email update from USCIS that my MTR has been denied. I will know more once I get the reasons for denial.
What are my options here? Is there a way this case can be fixed and brought back on track or am I in a no-go situation? Please advise on the next steps.
Thank you in advance to those who respond.
