my amateur opinion would be that if you get another J1 visa after the waiver- you will need another waiver- last action is what counts!
i'm presuming we are not talking about a physician J-1 here.
there are no restrictions on foreign travel on a J1- except that it expires a lot (every year for physicians) and needs restamoing to reenter...
hope that helps!

Is there any law that prohibits termination of a worker during her PREGNANCY DISABILITY LEAVE (MATERNITY LEAVE) Or FMLA (Family and Medical Leave) on the basis that the USCIS didn't approve the petition (god forbid)?
Firstly, very sorry for your situation. Seems to be very tricky. I am no lawyer so take my .2 cents with a pinch of salt. I think you are intertwining two separate issues. FMLA may protect you during maternity leave (you need to read the act to see if you qualify) BUT USCIS not approving your petition has nothing to do with your pregnancy neither does your employer. Your employer can terminate you on the basis of non-approval of your H1 not that he is doing because of your pregnancy.

I'm working for Company A and this is my 7th year on H1-B.
I got three years extension last year which is good until Aug'2012 through companyA.(Based on approved I-140 from my previous employer).
My previous employer withdrew my I-140 petition but luckly after getting my 3 year extension with Company A.
Actually,I didn't know that my previous employer had withdrawn the I-140 petition.(Online case status was showing it as approved.) q
I got a very good offer from Company B but I didnt want to take chances with USCIS,so I've told them that I would join only after approval.
CompanyB applied for my H1-B peition asking for 3 year of extension based on I-140 approval.
I was told today that my CompanyB H1-B petition has been denied because of I-140 withdrawal from my previous employer.we didnt know about this because the online case status for I-140 was still showing as approved.
Question
1)Since I've a valid visa until 2012 with Company A. Can company B reappeal the decision asking for H1-B transfer only until 2012.
2)Does the denial has any impact on my current Company A's H1-B petition.
I know it's a tough one but I do appreciate your feedback/help on this issues.
Thanks,
V.

I got busted going twice the speed limit in a 55 MPH zone and just got convicted of Reckless Driving.I got 364 Days Suspended Sentence.
Does that count as an "crime of Moral Turpitude". Does that mean that I-485 will be deined?
Do you know anyone who was convicted of reckless driving and got their green card?
All replies are appreciated.

I think you are still in H1B fear. SEE A DOCTOR.:eek:
You are a free man. Do what ever you want. Need to live only 6 months per year (check exact days) to live in USA to keep your GC. No need to work, if you have money in hand.
All GC related restrictions are gone after 6 months of getting it.

This story is priceless -- after all the anti-H1B and anti-immigrant rhetoric,
"The California Republican Party has decided no American is qualified to take one of its most crucial positions � state deputy political director � and has hired a Canadian for the job through a coveted H-1B visa."

Hello everyone,
It is extremely unfortunate but I have lost my green card. I can�t seem to find it anywhere. I know that it has not been stolen, just lost! I need to apply for a replacement green card ASAP. I need to submit some initial documents along with my I-90 form for it. I have been trying to search on the internet regarding it but I can�t seem to find a clear answer.
Long story short, could somebody please tell me what initial documents are there to submit along with my I-90 form? I have a copy of my original green card, but is there anything else required? Am I required to submit my photos along with my form?
I would highly appreciate if someone could reply to my queries ASAP.
Thank you very much in advance.

Looks like there are 27 co-sponsors for HR 5882 and 7 of those joined this month. That is a good news I guess.
Looks like the bill is still alive and something might happen before the end of this year.

Guys,
Can someone please let me know whether it is possible / advisable to travel while H1 approval is pending?
She is currently in H4 with a valid stamp in her passport. She filed for her H1 and was selected in lottery. She has a receipt but her approval is pending.
We were interested in making a short trip to India before Oct 1. But the consulting firm advised against it as according to them if she re-enters in H4 (even before Oct 1) while her H1 approval is pending, her H1 application will be cancelled and she has to restart the process all over again. Something to do with the last status on re-entry.
My thoughts are: The change of status will be effective Oct 1, 2008, why would it matter if I travel prior to that date?
A lot of you may have experienced the same dilemma, so please let me know...
thanks.

Folks,
I got an RFE (first time) for my 485 and my lawyer responded (sent it through post) on August, 9th, 2010. I am wondering, how long USCIS takes to update the status online? I just want to make sure USCIS received my RFE, that�s all I care.
Thanks much.

Can any one please explain what it means... Is this something related to 485 at all?... is it that I had figured the Receipt numbers wrongly(This particualar receipt number was tough to determine from the back of the check)..

Make sure you do not travel out of USA before you get your approved AP, since as per the law if the person who filled I485 leaves the country without AP then it is considered that he abandoned his I485, with the exception given to H1B/H4 and L1/L2 (and youdont have any of these)
If you leave USA without AP then you need to restart the process, if you have AP then that is all you need to travel.

Hello,
Here is my situation - I have filed my I140 and I485 through company A and still waiting on a receipt number for the I485 (filed on July 2007). I have gotten a new job offer with company B. My questions -
1) If I were to transfer my H1B to company B, what would happen to the GC process that I initiated with company A?
2) Also, is it possible to revoke the GC application? If yes, are the filing fees refunded?
Thanks for any advise.

post the employer name and address so that other people will be careful working for him and also if employer comes to know about IV, he will stop these kind of things
Intimidate them saying you will post the story on the IV forum. This works some times. I did this and the employer came down a little bit..

They are not liable to pay from the the day application was sent.
Instead, they are liable from the start date they requested on the petition OR the day you are physically in US whichever is later.
In most cases employers request immediate start dates so that the employee can start working as soon as the petition is sent (portability).

My wife did her MBA and used her OPT before marriage. After a gap of OPT period she again went to school and got a MS degree. During her OPT, she did not work at all. Now she is unable to get second OPT for her recent MS degree.
Is there a way out to get second OPT? Can this new law (29 months OPT) if passed, be used to apply for second OPT.
What should be best approach? Please advice.

In the last few days there is little news/action about STRIVE act. When this act was proposed all of us got excited and promised to each other to do everything to make it a success. Some of us did make phone calls to lawmakers (as per IV directions) but after that everything seems cooled down. Why are we losing our focus now?
Yes the new Senate bill S.1035 (tightening H1B program) might have put some doubts in our minds; but can we continue our efforts on STRIVE and deal with S.1035 thru amendments when it comes to discussion. Discussion about S.1035 on our forum is fine and in fact we might have to do that to figure out how bad/good it is our specific issues. But in the meantime we have to continue our efforts on STRIVE act too.

The next step was to schedule a meeting with our lawmakers. Many people are doing that. Did you try doing that?
In addition, today President Bush renewed call for immigration reform. Things will happen before the Summer break.
