Hello,
I am on H1 B and wife is on H4. H1B is expiring in Nov 2009 and my employer is going to file for extn. My wife is currently doing her Masters on H4. Need some advise to here
1) If I apply for extn (H1 & H4) within next 2 weeks it will take atleast another 3 months before I will come to know the decision. Nowadays lot of H1B extensions are getting rejected. Will it be a good idea to move my wife's status to F1 and not apply for her H4 extn..?
or
2) Should I wait for my decision on extension and if it gets rejected then apply for F1
or
3) Apply both i.e. apply for extension and simultaneously for H4 to F1. Any issues with this approach?
I don't have constraints on paying fees on H4 or F1. All I want is my wife should be able to continue her studies. I am working in an Indian company, so even if my extn gets rejected, I will go back to and continue work, but still want my wife to continue studies.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Shah

It is advisable to file change of status to h4 while in USA, no need to go back to India. After you get your h4 approved then you can go for stamping...
That is good approach, if
1. one is maintaining status at the time of H-4 Change of status application
AND
2. Person is not traveling out of USA in short term future

The big news today was Senator Reid now backtracking and promising climate change legislation before immigration reform. But in a seeming effort to show the Democrats are close to ready to go on immigration reform, Senators Reid, Schumer and Menendez began circulating a detailed outline of a comprehensive immigration reform bill that appears to exclude Senator Graham. There are many positive things in the plan, a few worrisome ones and several new concepts. Incidentally, the new two stage legalization process looks very familiar. A helpful reader posted this link where the 26 page proposal is posted. I've read the proposal...

Thinking about the idea of reusing an old idea.
I decided to reuse an old saying, and in the concept of reuse, I thought of cut and pasting.
Check out my idea of the phrase "Heart On A Sleeve"

For form I-130
Date authorized stay expired, or will expire, as shown on Form I-94 or I-95?
There is no expiry date in his I-94. What should I write? Is it like D/S (F1)?
Name and address of present employer (if any) for my husband.
Should I write Graduate Student or leave it blank?
Your relative is in the United States and will apply for adjustment of status to that of a lawful permanent resident at the USCIS office in:
Can I write San Diego? I found it only needs 4 months to complete it. We are in Los Angeles now.
Thank you in advance.

For the past few months, there have been no green cards available for persons in the employment-based third preference category (EB-3) and long backlogs in the EB-2 category for persons born in India and China. So, with few green cards to grant, why has the USCIS been scheduling interviews for persons in these categories? The short answer is that just because the USCIS cannot grant most EB-3 and EB-2 applicants green cards, the agency can take advantage of the lull in applications for adjustment of status to deny persons with pending applications. How can they do that? Easy! Let's say...

My PERM was approved in 3 days filed on June 15, 07 approved on June 18. .
I was lucky to be able to apply I-140, I-485 together during the July madness.
Last Month I received an RFE on the I-140 for degrees and reference letters after sending I-140 approved in 2 weeks. Now I have received an RFE on my I-485
They have asked for work authorization for the volunteering and internship I did while on F1. My atty by mistake put these on the G325A form. The internship was a cpt recorded on the I-20 so no worries there. Volunteering was where the problem is. It was working at a physicians office (my dad's office) helping in computer stuff.
What do the Gurus recommend I do. I am worried that at this stage What can we do.

My parents are planning to apply for visitor visa. My aunt (dad's sister) has applied a immigrant petition for him about 4 years back and it is still in process. If my dad applies for a visitor visa which is non-immigrant intent, will he face any issues with issuance of visitor visa ?
Thanks in advance for your comments/advice.

USCIS has announced that it is working on a rule to create an electronic registration system for H-1B employers subject to the annual cap. Employers would first register an application and be allocated an H-1B cap number and then would file the case. The idea is that employers would need to register to claim an H-1B cap number first and then if they are selected, they then would prepare and file the case. Right now, employers have to go to all the trouble of preparing a case that may be rejected simply because the visa allocation is filled. I think...

I received RFE that says" your application contained form I-693 in which the required TB skin test was not conducted. Please note there may be conflicting information on some published form I-693 instructions regarding when the chest X ray Report should be performed. It is required only when the TB skin test indicates a reaction equal to greater than 5 mm, or when the reason for why the TB skin test is medically inappropriate to perform has been annotated on theform I-693. Please submit a newly completed form I-693 indicating the results of the required skin test."
I did TB skin test in 2007 that came negative and it appears to me, civil surgeon did not updated results on I-693 form. After consulting with the doctor they filled up new I-693 from with 2007 test results and gave me in a sealed envelop. I need to know whether 2007 results will be acceptible to USCIS or do I need to do it gain before I submit response. Please advise.

Hello Everyone,
I need some suggestions from you guys.
My Employer A filed my green card labor in April 2000.
I was working with them on H1B till May 2003.
I moved to Employer B on H1B in May 2003.
Employer A continued to process my GC, and they filed my I485 in Jan 2007. I paid for the expenses.
My I485 is now pending at TSC.
Also Employer A confirmed they will support till i get my GC and I don�t have to work for them.
Can I use AC21 portability to move to another employer C using my EAD?
Do you see any issues i may face since i am not working for employer A?
Thanks

I am planning to visit India for a10 days in October. I have a valid h1b status till 2010 which I thinking of getting stamped at new delhi. But it seems the PIMS verification delay is making people wait for weeks and months. I have an AP which I can use to enter as an alternative. But I wanted to know if anyone had experience in stamping at the delhi consulate? Do they keep the passport if it is send for PIMS verification? In that case I'll drop the idea of getting it stamped and use my AP (though I want to avoid doing that snce I want to maintain my h1b status).
