This rule is NOT yet in place. Please be careful when posting such messages. This 45-day rule was barely proposed. The bottom line is that if your I140 with the old priority date was approved and not canceled due to mispresentation or froud, you can port the old priority date when applying for the new I140.

Hi,
I have been in this too long and want to decide if it makes any sense fighting anymore and anticipating the cards. Any advice is greatly appreciated
I contacted the Senators office and the rep there made a query to USICS> this is the response she got.
�This case is currently in an extended security review area."
She then tried to contact this area and the Officer advised that it cannot be released at this time. The Service is aware that there is a visa available, however, since it is still being reviewed for security issues it cannot be released at this time
Any Advise?
-Thanks

Hi All,
I have my labor filed and approved for EB3 March 2005 PD. My I140 too has been approved in June 2007. I filed for 485 on July 2nd. I would like to know whether I can now start a fresh EB2 and also apply for I140 and use the older Eb3 priority date of March 2005. I have not changed my company I need guidance for experts in this regard.
Just for information, my I140 was approved after I had applied for 485
Regards,

This is an answer to Ron Hira types of folks who complain H1b visas are complimenting offshore work. So the answer to Ron Hira is - B1 visa will compliment the offshoring and not h1b.
For consulting companies - As long as they can easily transport people back and forth - whatever visa - they don't care.
This is good news for fresh h1b seekers because h1b visas will be freed up for you to come here and immigrate into the US system.
There will be a challenge to Mom and Pop body shops - As they cannot offshore and rely on h1b visa holders for a living - Durbin and Grassley amendments will pose restrictions on H1b visa consulting and these small shops will face a challenge in future.
If any of you work for these shops and want a GC - get ur EAD ASAP. I am sure changes are coming - This proves that Uncle SAM is always watching.

Here is my situation:
Currently on 7th year H1 extension which expires 4/30/2007 (7th year extension not stamped in passport).
Have another 3 year extension approval ie., 5/1/2007-4/30/2010.
Will be travelling to canada on Feb 22nd for visa stamping.
Few qns:
1) Will the consulate issue me a visa all they way to 4/30/2010?
If yes, will they issue two stamps in the passport one to 4/30/2007 and one to 4/30/2010, or just one stamp?
2) If they issue one all the way to 4/30/2010, I am assuming I can re-enter the country straightaway ie., the visa does not have an effective "begin" date of 5/1/2007.
Anyone have any experience with a similar situation?
Your help will be appreciated.

Hi Friends - I work at a university and have been with them for 4 years. My boss plans on giving my a 10-12% mid-year pay increase. But our HR says that H1 workers are not eligible for mid-year pay hikes..?? IS THAT TRUE.?
Is there a INS rule that somebody can point me to which i can forward to my boss/HR which mentions that there is no pay increase issue with H1 visa holders..I searched on USCIS, DOL, etc..cannot find anything.
Can somebody please help!
Thanks in advace.!

Guys,
Your help/guidance is needed on this strange situation.
I am still in India and I have got my H1B1 approved thru one employer. I am waiting on few documents from my employer who is in US. I am still waiting for these documents so that I can go for Visa stamping.
Apparantly, this employer is causing some issues in giving me all my supporting documents.
My question: can I find some other employer and transfer my H1B1 and then go for stamping thru this new employer?
You experience, knowledge will be appreciated.
Thanks,
pan123
You cannot apply for transfer your present H1 to new employer...The kind of documentation required will not available with you at this time..so filing for a new H1 is very good option...
Good Luck !!!

when you got H1 did you receive new I-94? If yes, then you should have been working with the employer who did your H1 and not L1 employer. If not you should be able to COS to H1 without issues.
Thanks for your reply....
I have applied H1 through consulate process so I did not get I-94 . I have H1 approval receipt.
During COS process ..I will not be working on project so is this become problem for denial of COS status
Please advice...
Thanks....

Hello Freinds.
After a long wait of 8 years today i got an RFE i don't know what the RFE is all about and will be waiting to get the letter in the mail, do you know how much time does it takes for the paper RFE to come to your lawyer.
RFE was issued today but unlike the email which i got says the status on hold, thats strange
Current Status: REQUEST FOR INITIAL EVIDENCE SENT, CASE PLACED ON HOLD
is this normal or is this is an indication of something wrong and bad.
Please do advice gurus
Best Regards
Saburi

previously when entering on AP, they used to ask for receipt of 485.
so main proof they look for is a valid 'inprogress' 485 appln.
i dont think theyll ask ur wife to show her EAD card at the port of entry.
to be safe, give her a cpy of 485 reciept, a copy of the receipt for the new EAD, and carry the old ead card. i think u shud be fine.
having valid , nonlapsed EAD cards is probably only imp for those who are USING the ead. if ur wife is not working and if her ead arrves few weeks late, it wont matter as long as u have applied for its renewal and have proof of it.
this shud be an easy qn for ur attorney.
Thank you for the response. I asked my Attorney all but my change of employment, since he represents my employer, and I still haven't decided on my new employer, little cautious this time.

Since your H4 COS is not approved yet, you are not YET in H4 status.
So you need to prove your current status based on pending H4 petition as well as your H1 paystubs. That is why you need to submit the pay stubs.
Your COS may get rejected (even the H4 COS), and in that case you need to travel outside get an H1 stamp and come back.
This is a typical situation where you should file for Premium Processing (of H1 COS).
Thank you for the quick response. I see that you are in Center City Philly. My prospective employer is also located in the same area and he does not have an immigration attorney, may be I can retain your services.
I understand the 'Yes' to the first question.
For the second - I do not have the most recent paystubs as I have not been employed for the past 2 months. In addition, I cannot provide paystubs for any period in 2009, that I was employed as I was not paid by my employer.
The last paystubs I have are for Sep 2008. I also have W2 for 2006, 2007 and 2008 (though 2008 one is deficient for 3 months).
Is it possible that I do not submit my paystubs and W2 and only submit my earlier H1 approval notice, valid I-94, and Pending H4 COS Receipt Notice? With this documentation, can we expect an H1 approval and in the worst case expect COS denial?
I am thinking, if H1 gets approved, I will travel abroad and obtain a new I-94 at POE.
Please recommend a safe approach. The new employer wants me to begin in 3 weeks, and I am wondering what is the best approach.
Thank you in advance for your time and recommendations.
