H-1B Quota is still available for all employers. Employers who have not yet proceeded with new H-1B filing can go ahead now too as per their business requirements. After many years since the Cap of H-1B started, it is still available even after Sept. 30, 2009. As of this writing, there are still H1B cap numbers available, both in the advanced-degree and regular H1B quotas. This means that H1B petitions can still be filed for fiscal year 2010. These filings can continue, as long as the cap numbers are available.
We like to share that H-1B petitions can be filed throughout FY10, until the cap numbers are all depleted. Petition filed under the 2010 Cap after October 1, 2009, the start date of work requested can be immediate. Since October 1, 2009 has already passed, and the H-1B numbers are still available, filings may request an immediate validity date. Like earlier, the start date for H-1B work can be as much as six months in the future, depending upon the needs of an employer. Usually one has to start the H-1B Cap process 6 months in advance of the requested start of employment, employers were all doing so in order to increase their chances of obtaining one of the limited cap numbers. Thus, cases were filed at the beginning of April, requesting an October 1st start date. However, we are now beyond October 1st, and Cap numbers remain available, it is possible to pick a more desirable start date, ranging from immediate to six months in the future.
There is not much progress in cases filed in FY 2010 quota yet. However, there is sharp increase in filings. The regular cap increased by 1600 cases between the end of August and the end of September, for a total of 46,700 as of September 25, 2009. This reflects a higher rate of filings than in the prior few months which may be due to re-filings and fresh filing as per upcoming requirements. We will keep you posted on further developments.

Talk to the school's immigration dept or an immigration lawyer to begin your change of status to F-1. You must do this immediately. Since you are on H-1 technically the moment you lose your employment you will be out of status.

The use of H1b is extensive just to promote false news....
H1b and Greencards are used in the same context. Many 'technology' magazines don't like either GC's or H1b's.
GC process is a 'fair' atleast when it comes to prevailing wage and so they quote 'H1b' quite often to build up their case.

Can anyone tell me after my 6th year of H1 i have a 3 year extension of h1 visa, can i go to india and come back on that visa or do i need to have AP. I got my 140 approved and i got my 485 receipt notices.
As long as you have a valid H/L visa stamped on your passport , you dont need an AP to re-enter. Refer to lot of forums at IV. you will get info about AP/EAD usage and linking with H1

Hi
I got my visa H1B from employer X in the year 2003 and travelled to US in jan 2004 immigration officials denied my port of entry saying employer X is non-existent and cancelled my visa and told to with draw my application and they have written 212(a)(c)(i)(i) on my passport.I went back to my home country and worked over there for 3 yrs. After sometime i got an offer from some employer Y,they have filed for my H1B and approved.
When i went for visa to US Consulate visa officer told me that am ineligible for the H1B visa. I have explained them what exactly happened in 2004.
VisaOfficer has asked to appeal for waiver using the form I-601,after my appeal to the USCIS, consulate has given the visa.I came to US in 2007 and working for same employer B .I applied for extension under the same employer B,got an RFE asking to submit aggrement b/w the client and the vendor,the requested documents are sent. After that USCIS sent NOID(Notice of Intent to Deny),gave the reason as :
In January 2004 the beneficiay applied for admission as an H1 B Worker for company X.Under oath the beneficiary stated he never signed a contract with the petitioning company X,the petition company was found not to exist. Therefore, the beneficiary was found inadmissible under 212(A)(6)(C)(I) and 212(A)(7)(A)(I)(I) and permanently ineligible for the H1 Classification.
USCIS has again came back with the same issue of my previous H1 B.
I have been in US from 2007 June with employer Y ,after going through all the process in the year 2007 USCIS has issued my visa.
Please advice me on this, any help fully appreciated.
Thank you again for your anticipated cooperation in this matter.

option 3 as far as I know. You only renew the 6 year term if you are out of the US more than a year. And once you switch to a different visa category, your previous one does not matter for the cap. Its only if you are transferring from an existing H1B or renewing an existing H1B that the cap doesn't come into the picture.

My GC was started by a company A with priority date of June 2004 in EB3. 140 was approved and filed 485 in July 2007 when all gates opened. In parallel, a friend of mine started my GC processing under EB2. That has a priority date of March'2005. Current date for EB2 is Feb.2005.
I got an offer from a different company (company B), which I would like to take if I have no issues with GC etc. I am thinking what should be my plan of action. I have the following options:
1. Join company B on contract to hire on EAD that I got from company A as an employee of my friend's company. Apply 485 when EB2 becomes current for March 2005. Hopefully I will get my GC in an year and I join company B.
2. Join company B on EAD (or H1) and ask them to re-start my GC process under EB2. Issue with this is it may take a long time for my GC as PERM is taking longer nowaways.
3. Continue with my present employer and get my GC in 2020!..
Request your advice on the best course of action for me. Appreciate your help.

Hi JSaradhi,
When you got your renewal for your H1b till 2008, you should have also received a new I-94 card with a new validity on it, probably till 2008. I know this because I also recently got my H1b renewed.
Check with your employer. They should have handed over the new I-94 to you.
Regards

Friends:
Two weeks ago I received an RFE for my E-Filed I-131 Advance Parole.
They requested two passport-style Photos but didn't mention where to send the RFE response.
However, on the top right-corner (next to the US Dept. Homeland security Logo) on the RFE page, there is an address (P.O Box 852381 Mesquite, Texas 75185-2381).
Underneath of the Director signature it has Officer # 159.
I'm really confused
1. Which address to send the RFE response?
2. Attention to what??? (Should I put Attn: to this officer # 159)
Please guide me ASAP...
hello,
I got a ref for E filed EAD too , but they sent a yellow sheet which had address on that
and specifically said to keep that sheet on top when i send the photos.
the address you mentioned is what i sent my ref to .
Hope this helps
Thanks

Hi,
I don't have direct personal experience with those particular lenses, however as a general rule suplementary lenses can be designed to give sharper results if they are designed to go in front of a particular lens. (the Nikon suplementary wide angle is probably slightly sharper) If it were me I would try the lenses I already have to see if the results I got from either or both were adequate for my personal purposes before I shelled out more bucks to change them. Even if they are terribly unsharp you may find that the exact look of the unsharpness is apealing in your images.
as far as a UV filter goes it is usualy a very subtle difference in the look of the images, unless you have a habit of destroying the front element of your lenses. If that were the case it could save you the cost of replaceing scratched lenses. Personaly I just make it a habit to keep my fingers off of the front of the glass, and so far in the last 30 or so years I haven't needed to keep a UV or skylight filter on my lenses.
