Hi,
I have my I-140 application (regular) still pending with USCIS when I got laid off. I don't stand a chance of asking my ex-employer to file a premium processing I-140, who has already agreed not to revoke anything.
Now I am looking for a new employer who will be willing to sponsor my H1B and GC. Has anybody experienced such a situation?
I am on my 9th year of H1B with PD Mar 2003 (EB3).
Thanks.

You need to push the issue with the USCIS. Call customer service and request to be transferred to immigration officer. Plead your case, request them to send FP notice for your son. Take an infopass if phone call does not do it. If notning helps, sue the USCIS on behalf of your son and you will get his GC within 2 months.

I applied my 485 as a single on July 17th.
I got married and then applied my spouse's on Aug 16th.
Since I am married now, will that cause my application to get rejected as I applied as Single.
I am not sure how would this be handled at USCIS end ?
Any idea ?
Should not have any impact - your spouse will receive a conditional GC if her GC comes within two years of your marriage. You shall (as a primary member) receive a 10 year GC. You will need to file for your wife again to remove the conditions after completing two years of your marriage. No big deal. Just chill and attend the rally. No one can tell you how long will it take it to get your actual GC though.

Here is an excerpt from the link below.. it sounds crazy
"Visa numbers can retrogress in the middle of a month and become unavailable without prior notice. If there is a mid-month retrogression, USCIS could elect to stop accepting adjustment applications. While this is unlikely to occur in July 2007, it becomes more and more possible as the fiscal year progresses. "
I hope this doesnt happen.

Is this just a reference to how dates are generally published in the middle of the month? Could Fragomen be simply saying that it is unlikely that the visa bulletin published in the middle of the month of July will have the dates retrogressed, but later mid-month bulletins (in Aug etc.) could bring news of retrogresssion?
Note that the first sentence of the paragraph from which "averagedesi" has quoted says that "Though the principal employment-based categories are current for July, future retrogression is possible ...." This seems to indicate that they will remain current throughout July, which is what we know/believe.

Yes I have seen that before (though I do not remember if it was Williston). At that time, Fedex told me that they have a some sort of bulk pickup arrangement (probably they may not be able to run the scanner after that pickup). But there were no problem due to that for me and my packet was delivered in time.

Hi,
I got my I-140 approved last week at Texas Service Center and the status was Approval notice sent. Today, I got an email from CRIS mentioning this case has been transferred to Nebraska Service Center for processing where my I-485 is pending.
Can anybody throw some light on this?
Thanks,

My friend SS moved to Detroit, recently from Singapore on a H1-B Visa valid until Sep 2009. He is a product owner in a multi national company there. SS moved here and could bag 2 offers based on his Vast experience and Extraordinary skills. One in Detroit, Michigan, the other in OKC. He wanted to take the offer in MI. He gave a driving skills test before Jan 22, got a TIP(Temporary Permit), joined in a driving school to learn/practise driving. As per his TIP, he is eligible to give a driving test on or after Jan 25 2008. He gave the road test succesfully. The SOS denied to give him a license since he does not have a Green Card. All his money and time for driving classes is waste. He could not drive to work if he lived in MI. Govt does not provide any good public transportation. He did not want to fight more and waste his time with SOS reps. He moved over to OKC to take his second job offer. There is no such foolish rule yet in OKC that denies Driving license to LEGAL NON-IMMIGRANT WORKERS & LEGAL STUDENTS. Michigan lost another job. This law is not good for a state already in recession and a state with unemployment rate much greater than the national average. We ask the Governor and SOS to focus on more important economic woes of the state than brain less interpretations of the laws.

Hi,
I have my I140 approved couple of years ago and now our company is being acquired by another firm. As a result I may lose my job. I am on 5th year of H1 and have I140 copy.
I got an offer with a project from a top consulting firm who is willing to transfer my H1 and also carry forward GC.
However I am concerned, as that consulting firm has the history of cancelling the H1 once they could not find any new projects after the current project. But in current market scenario, I could find any other opportunity and it may be necessary to join that firm.
So lets say after one/two years, if I lose my job with that firm and want to carry forward my H1/GC with other company, will it be possible?
What should I ask the firm now (terms and conditions, before start working with them) to make my self in safe position later on?
Thanks for your advice.

PD on your profile does not sound realistic, whats your actual PD? I assume you have not filed your 485 according to your profile. This may help throw some opinions.

I was talking to an attorney over the phone today and she said that PERM can be filed followed by 140 even if I am outside the country (working for an overseas department of the company) and I can come back on L1 / H1B, because GC is for future employment.
We were discuussing this because I was concerned that I may not be able to file H1 extension if the PERM is not filed 365 days before H1 extension.
This would be totally awesome coz I would love to work in some other country for a while.
Is this really true? (seems too good to be considering that everything else seems stacked up against us). Oh, if it matters to the discussion: I'm in EB2/India/retrogressed ad infinitum.

Hi Guys,
I am also thinking abt applying for Canada PR?How much would it cost? Is location specific?
Again, looking at the website might help u more get the whole picture and all the details, than asking a question or two on forums http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/index.asp
The cost varies by family size. For a family of 4, in the beginning u'll need 1000-2000 for application fees and to prepare ur documents. one or two years later, you'll need another 1000-2000 for medical exams and landing/visa fees.
If you apply to the federal program, you are allowed to go anywhere except quebec. There is also a provincial program in each province that allows u to immigrate to that province, but then again u can move later..

I understand that a H1B visa is the expense to the employer and is not a taxable benefit to the employee. If a company wishes to pay for the green card for the employee, granting them permanent residence in the U.S., is this a taxable benefit to the employee? Should it be added to their W-2? If yes, where is the IRS documentation on this? I can�t find it. Thanks.
If the company pays for GC expenses directly, then it is an expense to the company, and it will not be reported on W2 as it is not a taxable benefit. However, if you are being reimbursed for GC expenses, *some* companies report this in paycheck as non-taxable income, again you will not be paying taxes to IRS on this. It is just a record keeping.

zCool, Thanks a lot!
Last Status counts situation DOES NOT apply here.
That rule applies to situations where you've gone from h1b to h4 or ead etc..
In your case, you can have as many approved h1b petitions as possible since it's really petition approved for that employer and your are merely beneficiary.
BUT you can ONLY work for 1 employer at a time..
Going by your situation.. if you have approved h1 from company B and are working with company B. THEN you are okay.. to hell with what company A may choose to do..
