If they'd only "fix" the Social Security Card to be more secure, I'm sure you'd reduce much of the illegal employment. the way the SS card is designed right now, anyone could print out as many of these on his home printer.

We (parents) had applied for family based concurrent AOS in Aug, 2008 while we were on
tourist visas. We are now in India on Advance Parole(valid till Aug. 2009) that we received
after filing AOS.
Today(Feb, 2009) production of green card has been ordered for my wife and will soon be
received in USA. My case is still pending but we expect it processed soon. Thanks for all
the help.
My questions is
(a) What documents we need to show at immigration on returning to USA?. We have I-485
Notice, Advance Parole and valid Passports.
(b) Do we need to request somone in USA to mail our green cards on receipt.?
(c) How much maximum time we still can stay in India.? We wish to stay here for another 1-2
months. In any case making travel arrangements etc. is likely to take atleast 2 weeks.
(d) But is there a time limit for returning?
(e) Can we safely enter 2-3 months after the cards are received in USA, and
(f) sending GC by mail is not objectionable?
Also, in totality, Which one of these scenarios is correct:
1) Do we have to return immediately on approval of green card, enter with advance parole
only and it is not legal to mail green cards?
OR
2) It means if we can get our cards mailed and receive it here, we can safely travel back
with our green cards, even after 2 months of its receipt in USA. Overstay abroad is not an
issue whether it is 2 weeks, 2 months or even more. Am I right?
We would appreciate all the help here, as these are some of the question I have looked over
many sites and forums but could not find answers to. Thanks so much!

As per the new visa bulletin, my PD (Mar/26/2006) goes current from 1/September.
My husband is the primary applicant on the case with me and son as dependents.
485s submitted in Sep/2007. We received RFE for my son application and replied, we received update from USCIS that it reached them in July/2009.
USCIS web case status shows 'initial review' for me and my husband, 'RFE response review' for my son.
As we filed together, does this mean that all three applications were processed and RFE was required only for my son?
Thanks for all your inputs, being a great help.

I am on F1 visa. I enrolled in one of the university. I don't attend university in person. I do attend classes online from another state. My question is that I am resident of which state ?? Will I be automatically resident of state where exactly my university is ? I know it is mandatory to attend classes in person on F1. Can you please advise ? How is residency considered ?
Thank you very much.

Hi,
I am (L1 B) in US since April 2008 with my wife (L2). Our I-94 and VISA expired on Oct 08. Before expiration my company applied for the extension of L1 (I-129). The status changed to "Request for RFE" on Feb 09. Got the RFE with 11 questions yesterday. The questions asked were more about my specialty, my company and the clients contract, other fellow aliens from my company working for the client's status and profiles. So now not sure what my company will do with the RFE.
My questions are -
1. If my company withdraws the L1 Extension petition, then how many more days I will be able to stay in US legally.
2. My wife is currently 22+ weeks pregnant, will US Govt consider anything for her medical situation?
3. Whats the possibility that VSC will accept the extension if we send the answers to the RFE?
4. If the petition is denied, then how many more days I will be able to stay legally?
I would appreciate if anybody can answer my questions.
Thanks in advance.
Saurav

I am EB2, Indian. Filed for PERM earlier this summer and waiting for approval which I don't expect for another 4-6 months. The situation is that my company is in a very shaky financial position but they have been very supportive and I am hoping to be okay for the next 6 mo to year. My strategy is (assuming I don't lose my job) to just sit out my I-140 approval and that way I get the 3-yr extension and lock in my PD. I don't see being able to file for I-485 at this job.
Soo -- 2 questions:
1) Do you think the financial position of the company will affect the I-140 approval? It's a financial services firm and we have had a bunch of layoffs.
2) Assuming I get my I-140 approved, could I, in theory, leave the US for a while (I am very interested in a one-year fellowship program in Europe) and then come back and go work for a new company using the 3-year H1-B extension and begin the green card process again with my current (2009) priority date?
Thanks very much!

04/29/2007: Need for Networking of Immigrants to Support Immigration Reform Legislation
When it comes to the community organizing and support activities for the comprehensive immigration reform legislation, there are hundreds of organizations that organize, network, and mobilize the immigrants in support of the issues involving the difficult issues of legalization of illegal aliens. However, the same is not true with the employment-based immigration reform issues. The lobbying and organizing and support of these issues rely heavily on the employers, businesses, and academic institutions such as competeamerica. Without doubt, the employers should be the most effective and powerful groups to pressure the Congress, President, and other players in the political process.
However, it is time that the immigrants themselves also participate in a similar effort to share information, issues, and supporting activities. Obviously, the first move is to organize and build a network throuhout the nation and the world, and along with the networking, other support activities must be conducted and expanded. There are not too many immigrant groups that are focused on the employment-based immigration reform issues. Currently, a website of www.immigrationvoice.org is launching this campaign and attempting to organize and network in the employment-based immigrant communities. This reporter urges the foreign professional workers to visit and join this group to help an activities of side-kick from the standpoint of stakeholder foreign workers in support of the employers and their support groups. "Networking" will create a power in the political process.

You can take a 2nd additional job if needed..
Not much benefit if your current job is well paying and going well... Even though I applied for EAD, I am not planning to use it.. But just in case.. You never know WWW in US...
And when you invoke AC21.. You must have EAD in hand...
NB: WWW = Work Women Weather...
AC21 can be invoked by transferring H-1b.

People at the airports( I assume the same for checkpoints) care more about what's the date on the stamp and if you have a valid H1-B to support.
In my case, I had a company A's H1-B Visa stamping(Still valid at that time) and Company B's H1B papers.
Very rarely do they pull-over(it happened for me on a different occassion) and quiz you.
I believe when you say you are abandoning H1-B you are abandoning the petetion and not the Visa.

hello all,
Has anyone in Charlotte, NC got a extension on the Driver's license on the basis on the H1-B renewal application receipt.
My spouse's driver's license expires this month end. I have applied for h1-b/h4 renewal, yet to receive the application receipt.But wanted to know if anyone here in Charlotte,NC got a extension/grace (30days or 90days) on the basis of the receipt.
thanks.
In Dallas I couldnt get based on the receipt. They asked me the I-94. But it was for the H4.

H1 processing for 2nd time : First 6 yrs on H1 over!
My 6 yrs of stay on H1 gets over in November 2007. I have not applied for GC. I know that I need to stay outside the US for a period of 1 year before starting a new H1. I will be going back to my country in November.
Can I find a company which will apply for H1 for me in April 2008 and enter US in Nov.2008 (after I complete 1 year stay outside the US)?
Am I eligible to apply immediately in April 2008? Or do I need to complete 1 yr of stay outside the US before even applying for a fresh H1?
When will I be able to enter the US : after Nov.2008 or Oct.2009.
Any inputs in this regard will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

For those worried about not being able to live in the UK, I say "Don't worry, you are not missing a great deal".
I have lived & worked in UK for a couple of years many years back. Like most of my acquaintances at that time I didn't (want to) live there long. Most of my friends left for US, I returned to India. And then to US.
Life is US has its problems, the immigration backlog is one of them. But it is really a walk in the park compared to that in Britain. UK is one of the most racist society I have ever seen. There is racism in all countries (even in India, we call it Casteism) but no where as overt as in UK. In UK, the work culture isn't all that great, life is boring and the weather sucks. No wonder a recent investigation by BBC reported that 7 out of 10 Britons now prefer to live outside UK mainly because it's high cost of living, lack of livable space and for little more sunshine. And that number is growing every year. In % terms, that's the highest number and in absolute terms it is the 3rd highest expat population of any country, only India & China ranks higher. Britons now prefer the sunny & more livable places such as Spain (culture), Australia (language) and Florida (proximity).
When I left UK, it was with relief. Now when I visit UK on work or enroute to other countries, I feel sorry for the folks back there. I would any day prefer living in India - if not in US - than living in UK.

Once your H1b application gets selected you cannot work until atleast oct 01 2009 which is usually start date on the approval. the date may not be exactly oct 01 but it will be certainly in that range.

Hi All,
Yesterday we e-filed for my wife's 3rd EAD and 4th AP. This will be our first efile.
As we need to send supporting documents for both applications.
Should we send them in one package or two?
Printed address for both application is same!
Is it because I-131 is being considered as child request of I-765?
Thanks in advance.
