Hi. I am currently here in the US applying for AOS from a B2 to F1 visa. I sent my application on the 26th April with USPS Express mail request return reciept. My current 1 94 expired on April 28th. My return receipt from USPS says that my item was signed for on April 28th leaving me still in status but when I received my I 797 C it says that the receipt date is April 29th. I am very worried and I am wondering if this is something I should call their customer services department about. I do not want my application denied simply because I may seem not to be in status. Please help, I am very worried.
As long as you have a copy of the delivery receipt you are good and not out of status.

hi,
Can I work for my current employer on H1B and also take up some part time job to work for some other employer on EAD? In doing so, are there any risks involved with respect to Green Card?. Please suggest regarding this.
thanks,

Folks,
I did not face this problem because i had a physical Birth Certificate here at US and i Notarized it by American Notary ( Bank of America ) before sending for 485 last July 07
Now for my wife the birth Certificate is physically at India - my father in law is feeling nervous to send the Original by Post - you know how tough it is to get another original BC at India unlike USA where my son has 4-5 original BC for 50 bucks :)
So i was wondering if a Notarization from India would work for 485 purpose ?
Thanks much!

An H-1 petition filed by a new employer should have no direct impact on your AC-21 GC process. Because you are not currently in a valid non-immigrant status, you are not eligible for a change of status in the US. In any event, the petition would not be valid before 10/1/2010 assuming the employer is not cap exempt. So, you would have to travel out of the US to apply for the H-1 visa to be stamped in your passport. To be safe, you should make sure you have a valid AP with you before travelling just in case there is a problem ofr delay at the consul.

Hi,
We will be travelling to India and are looking to book Visa appointment. In Mumbai only first week of december is available. As we have to mail the documents, first week of december is not an option for us.
Has the Mumbai consulate opened the dates for December 2nd week and further or has the appointments been booked?

Hello,
The new fee structure goes into effect Aug 17.
I vaguely remember reading an anecdote that there is no need to pay yearly renewal fees in the new fee structure. (Am I right?) Please share your views.
--- Not true, you have to renew your EAD/AP every year.
Are there any advantages to filing per new fees?
--- Oh yeah, you will be listed in 2007 Forbes List of "THE RICH" if you are able to afford the new fees structure :) and also ................that is it .
take it easy :)

I'm from the Philippines and Mar. 28, 2006 is my PD. My question now is, what if by June (by God's grace) my PD will be processed. How many more months should I wait before receiving my packet 4? considering that certain documents (ds230,nbi) need to be updated & be sent to them. A total of how many more months should I still need to wait before my embassy interview?
Hope u can really help me with this! thanks!

Hi Everyone
Just wondering if anyone in the forum can help me with this question.
My original EAD applied for in June 12, 2010 was approved on Sep 2, 2010. But, the document was lost in mail and after 90 days I was instructed by USCIS to reapply.
And, I did reapply on Oct 12, 2010 and the case is pending on initial review although I received the I-797 Notice of Action 'Replacement Receipt' on Oct 15, 2010.
According to the I-9 Receipt rule, I can start work for a period of 90 days using the 'replacement receipt' which is just a similar receipt for an I-765 application but for a replacement EAD (lost in mail). This is in the I-9 handbook in the uscis.gov site.
My question is:
According to the 90 day unemployment rule starting April 8, 2008, if we start employment using the I-9 receipt rule, do the days of unemployment still count against the aggregate of 90 days allowed after the OPT start date ?( which in my case is Sep 20, 2010.. I presume because this is the date I had provided on the approved original EAD application which was approved on Sep, 2nd, 2010 and I had lost in the mail).
So, basically in this special case where both the I-9 receipt rule & 90 day unemployment rule apply, what happens with the umemployed days accrued even if i accept employment?
Thanks.
Any help would be deeply appreciated.

140/485 concurrent applied aug 17, 2007 at NSC. PD May 2007 EB3 India.
I am with same H1b employer though now on EAD...h1 expired as PERM not applied until 6th yr h1b, so had no option.
As most know, NSC concurrent 140's will be taking forever to be processed. I have no hope for approval anytime soon. Actually I am expecting a RFE or NOID (hope not) because my labor cert approval was not submitted with my 140/485 due to timing of PERM approval and July fisasco deadline...i am lucky i still got receipt and EAD/AP.
My question...I'm basically miserable at my job. My employer is idiot who's making life difficult. I want to change jobs. I know it's very risky with 140 not approved.
1) can i invoke ac21 since 140/485 pending over 180 days? And if I can, what happens if employer revokes pending or approved 140?
2) With AC21...occupational outlook code is most important? Job title? or job responsibilities? I am looking to try and change what i'm doing...the job code is the same...the titles are somewhat different...and so are the job responsibilities...however it's same job code.
Please suggest....I don't think I can take any more with my employer.

My company filed my 7th year H1 extension and my wife's H4 petition at the same time in Dec 2006. USCIS online case status shows received and in process for both H1 and H4.
Recently, we upgraded to premium processing. However, only the H1 case status now shows as being done under premium processing. Does that mean that only my H1 will be premium processed and not H4 even though they both were filed together. Is this normal. I am hoping both H1 and H4 will be premium processed. I know that USCIS adjudicates H4 also in premium processing for such cases as a courtesy. Just wanted to know if anyone has been under similar situation before and got only their H1 approved in premium and not H4....The whole purpose of me upgrading to PP was to get H4 approved before the H1 quota begins in April as our H1/H4 were expiring this summer and my wife's employer is filing a H1 COS petition for her in PP under the 2008 H1 quota....Didn't want to take any chance of her H1 COS getting approved without a I-94 because of her current H4 expiring in summer.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
I am qualified in finance;started my career in finance & continued for 4 yrs. then switched over to SAP implementation ; for over 3 yrs now, i have been into SAP implementation projects. I have H1B approved for SAP work.
Now, can I take up a job with a different title - say, "Finance Analyst" or "Corporate Finance"? I have been talking to various clients in California that are interested in offering me finance positions.

Hello,
Not that I know ... the worst case scenario is that your green cards are physically mailed to you and then they are returned 'cause nobody was at the home (though normally, it should just sit with your other mail).
When you reenter US, stand in the regular visitor line.... if your card is issued, the IO will know and stamp your passport w temporary green card and allow you in the US.

H4 to H1 transfer - how will that happen?

09-10 02:32 PM
Hi all,
I am getting a new job offer and i applied my GC this July just like most of us here. Is it possible to accept the offer and transfer the H1B visa, then try and negotiate to start later as soon as 180 days are completed?
What happens if i transfer my H1 now ... less than 180 days..and do not start with the new company, will my 485 still be processed? Lets say the H1 is transferred, but i plan not to use that H1 and stick to the same company where my H1 is, will that still be ok?
I am confused, its a good offer, and i dont know what to do. pls help..
An H1 transfer is not really a transfer. Just that you'll get another employer who is willing to and who can legally hire you. It does not mean you HAVE TO work for the new employer.
All the options you discussed here are safe for you.
1) Get H1 'transferred' now and join the new employer after 6 months are over
2) Get H1 'transferred' now and don't join the new employer.
Just make sure your new job description is similar to your LC job description and it has been 180 days since you filed your I-485.. Chill
