Hi all:
I entered the country on Advance Parole and so now I am on EAD status because of that.
I am on my 8th year of extension. My H1B was valid till 2009 but now it is not because of my EAD. Its been more than a year since I applied for 485 and My I-140 has been approved.
Q.1 Can I join another employer based on a new H1B so as to reinstate my H1B status? I plan to file for AC21 if I change employers.
Q.2 Can I apply for a new H1B with my CURRENT employer based on my current job?
I would really appreciate your input.
Thanks in advance.

Hi All,
I just joined a new company and would like to use AC21 as I will be working on EAD. 140 is approved and 485 is pending for more than 180 days. New job is same or similar as per ONET job code.
My question is,
Is it necessary to involve your attorney or you can simply go ahead and file AC21 yourself?
I would like to what others have done? What kind of extra fees your attorney has charged for AC21?
Thanks
There is nothing called AC21 filing ie AC21 does not have a form that you fill out etc.... generally Attorneys attach the docs with a covering letter citing the AC21 clause and from what I understand, these docs may/may not get into your file.
The advantage of using an Attorney is,
(1) G28 filing - Attorney will get communication and be in position to respond or guide appropriately
(2) NOID, RFE and denials might happen and MTR may have to be filed.
Most times, issues arise when old employer withdraws the 140 petition.
USCIS needs to have a better way of handling this and avoid unnecessary tensions and errors

I entered US with a tourist visa in California. Months later, I got married to a US citizen in Austin,Texas. Me and my husband were apprehensive at first to get an immigration lawyer to process my visa but we realized the process of obtaining a visa was not as straight forward as we thought.
We have since decided to hire a lawyer and have met with two attorneys so far. The process is frustrating because of the requirement to pay a consultation fee; we schedule an appointment, meet, and find out that the cost of hiring the lawyer is far greater than what we can afford.
My question is: does anyone know of a good lawyer who charges a reasonable flat fee? $1000 - $1500?
thank you
Post it in the "Ask a Lawyer for FREE" section. Some attorneys read that and if any interested will either reply or PM you i guess. good luck.

Hi Aditya,
This is my guess and it is not a calculation (like the experts do).
Optimistic: EB2 India will be current in November 2006
Pessimistic: EB2 India will slow down due to large number of cases during 2003-2005
Realistic: I dono!
Experts please fill in your thoughts.
Guys i am new to the forum
I know its a tough one to guess but
any idea what could be
Most Optimistic Outlook for Eb2
Most pestimestic Outlook for Eb2
Median Outlook for Eb2?
thanks

Is there any list of H-1B sponsers who can sponser H1 for Dentist ?
Lot of dentists maintain legal status by using Kaplan Visa ie they register for courses in Kaplan coaching and get i 20 from them. Guess u need get hold of these folks in their user forums, you may get a route how h1b sponsership works out.

beautiful! just like the above said, the gloss thing isn't needed
I wondered why the top of the stamp design was rounded :) I think this would look better without the rounded edge. But the design itself is really good!
i like it but i dnt think you should have rounded the gloss
Agreed. Here's some more versions

u cannot use Canada PR to enter US. If he left US without AP then his application for adjustment of status is considered abandoned.
spouse can file new application in dependent category. the dates for dependent category have come quite close since last 6 months. he could expect a GC in 6 months !
talk to a lawyer about dependent 485.

You need to know SOC code/Job responsibilities/Salary for using AC-21.
is this info available on the PERM approval?

Does anyone know what email / letter(s) one should get when the GC is approved ?
I received this email two days ago:
On November 13, 2006, a welcome notice was mailed for this case. If 30 days have passed and you have not received this notice. Please call the National Customer Service Center at (800) 375-5283 during business hours.
Does this constitute as a GC approval ?
I read in other threads that a "card ordered" email follows the GC approval but I haven't received the email (nor the physical card yet).
Does it normally take 1 or more weeks for the physical card to arrive after approval ?
Thank you for any insight you can provide.

I came to the US on F1 for MS and then trasferred to another college to pursue my PhD. During this time my F1 visa expired, but I am maintaining my legal status as my I-20 is valid. I got married last year and my wife who originally came on F1, is now on H1.
I am going to planning to go to India in end of April and need to renew my F1 visa. What are the chances of my renewal getting refused, due to my wife's H1 (dual intention) status? What documents if any, can I show in order to prove that I have intentions to come back to the US?
I need to get a visa interview date soon, so please reply as soon as is convenient.
Thanks in advance!

Hello,
We just received the ASC notice for biometric notice. The date they provided is the same date where we have an appointment in Mexico US Consulate.
Any experience for re-scheduling the biometric appointment. We would like the appointment to be earlier.

My status on I-140 changed to "Request for Additional Evidence". Notice was sent only on 25th, so I don't have any more details yet.
Just wondering if anybody has any idea what it could be?
google around for RFEs... the three most common ones are:
- ability to pay -> this is for your employer to prove... if you are from a small company, or have been paid less than prevailing wage or LC wage, this might come up.
- education qualifications -> if your LC said the job requires 4 year BE in CS, and you have a 3 year BSc in Mathematics, this might come up
- experience letters -> if your LC said the job requires 5 years of experience, and you have not submitted detailed experience letters for those, you'll get this RFE.
Having said that, dont worry about it until you actually receive the RFE, it could be for a bunch of things, some serious, some completely trivial. If your LC required some minimum experience and you did not submit copies of your experience letter, you may want ot start contacting older employers, otherwise just wait till the RFE actually comes.
