Appreciate your prompt response Raysaikat. If I get the J1 waiver from Australia, can I file directly under the EB2-NIW without changing to H1B.
After completing my MS (Molecular Biotech) and PhD (Veterinary Science) in Australia, I am currently working on a J1 visa for the last 3 years in US university. My employer cannot sponsor my H1B/ Green card but I can get recommendation letters and I have 6 publications including 3 first authors. Thanks, Palani

Well, my forms were returned to my attorney because of some filing issue. So instead of my EAD as I was expecting I have to refile. Of course I now have a job offer that I would like to take.
My husband (who is a US citizen) is in school and will be depending on my salary. I dont know if that counts as a big financial loss.
Where can I go to find this out. I think my attorney i doing a less than great job in giving me the proper options to choose from.
Any help would be appreciated.
Check with your lawyer... (not this old one.. who's so forgotful :-))
Get a better lawyer like Murthy or Khanna... if your life depends on it...

This really seems moving now. This may be the best time for the CIR to get passed in Senate. Conference may be different ball game but right now momentum is picking up and we (IV) has to do one last effort for our amendments.
Bush administration seems finally pushing hard on CIR:

It is perfectly legal to let two employers file for her H-1B visa. She can even work for both of them!
Hi,
A friend of mine who's in India right now has been offered a job by two different employers here in the US. Both of those employers want to file for her H1B.
From her perspective it makes sense to let both the employers apply for her H1 coz that increases her chances of getting at least one approved. However, reading a bunch of FAQs online it seems that it'd be illegal for her to let both the employers apply for her H1B.
Is that correct? Does anyone have any insights?
Thanks.

Hi,
I am a dependent of my parents who are currently staying in the U.S. with E-2 Visa. We have stayed in the U.S. for almost 9 years now and we are trying to get a Green Card.
My parents have already filed and received an approved I-140, but my parents say that we have to wait couple years before being able to file I-485.
I don't quite understand why there is a delay between receiving an approved I-140 and filing I-485.
It seems like everybody either files both I-140 and I-485 concurrently or file I-485 immediately after I-140 is approved.
So, my question is: Is there usually a span of time that applicants must wait before filing I-485 after getting their I-140 approved?
Thanks a bunch,
--HJ

Hi
I have one question , I am in my 6th year of H1 (Compeleting on Nov end). The renewal has been submitted by my employer yesterday for 7th,8th,9th year based on the approved I-140.
My wife had to travel yesterday for a family reason and she is scheduled to come back on Oct 1st. In General would there be any issue at port of entry when she comes back, as she would have only 2 months valid visa in her passport at that time.
Thanks

I have a curious situation. I have filed EB3-485 as a secondary applicant to my wife. I am currently in a job where I can't file a green card ( this is my 5th year of H1b). My understanding is one can't have a seventh year extension for H1b unless his I-140 is approved.
Should I consider changing the job and filing another GC by myself. I know I can continue renewing EAD but I still want to keep my H1b
Thanks

I tried it. They might wont ask new approval notice. You should show that and get the expiry date in I-94 as same as your latest I-797 Approval notice.
You don't need to stamp visa as its not expired.....

I got my physical EAD card but my online status still says pending. Don't know what's going on at USCIS now.
When does your current EAD expire?
When did you apply for your EAD? Which Service Center? Paper or e-filed?
Pl. advise. Thanks.

Are you serious? I must be a super expert on taxes because I have always done it on paper using a calculator for the last 14 years and counting. Just spend an hour reading the instructions and you're done. Have a question, call the IRS. Unlike other government agencies (cough.. USCIS cough..) the agents at the other end of the line are actually helpful and responsive.

Well, Not every one is as patient as you are in reading the instructions and if needed a friendly manual or dialing 800 829 1040. The feeling is mutual about the IRS helpline folks.
The OP seemed very confused and thats why I suggested not to fill in on paper by hand.

The H-2B non-agricultural temporary worker program allows U.S. employers to bring foreign nationals to the United States to fill temporary non-agricultural jobs. As of 07/16/10, USCIS receipted 30,154 petitions, toward the 47,000 beneficiaries target for the second half of the fiscal year. This count includes 28,539 approved and 1,615 pending petitions.
There is a statutory numerical limit, or �cap,� on the total number aliens who may be issued a visa or otherwise provided H-2B status (including through a change of status) during a fiscal year. Currently, the H-2B cap set by Congress is 66,000 per fiscal year, with 33,000 to be allocated for employment beginning in the 1st half of the fiscal year (October 1 - March 31) and 33,000 to be allocated for employment beginning in the 2nd half of the fiscal year (April 1 - September 30). Any unused numbers from the first half of the fiscal year will be made available for use by employers seeking to hire H-2B workers during the second half of the fiscal year. There is no �carry over� of unused H-2B numbers from one fiscal year to the next.
The H2B visa is available to employers of foreign workers not working in the agricultural field. This visa is only available for work that is temporary in nature. For H2B purposes, that means:
* Recurring seasonal need;
* Intermittent need;
* Peak-load need; and
* One time occurrence.
The employer must also prove that there are no unemployed US workers willing or able to do the work. This is established through the state's employment agency using a labor certification process. This process requires a recruitment campaign, including advertising in a local newspaper for available temporary workers. The duration of the visa is limited to the employer's need for the temporary workers. The maximum authorized period is one year. However, the employer may extend the duration of the visa up to three years -- but with a very close watch from the immigration authorities.

Take one month unpaid vacation. Packup your things. Send family home. Work for one or two weeks(stay in a motel or with friends), resign and go same day or next day.
This will reduce your anxiety about your future.
I am on my 2nd phase of H1B visa which is valid until 2012.
I want to quit my job and go back to my home country.
How long after I quit my job do I get to stay here to wrap up and ship my stuff??
Does that jeopardize my status? I plan to be here for about 30 days after quitting my job. WOuld that be ok? or is it overstaying?
If I ever need to apply for a tourist visa in future will this jeopardize my chances of getting a visa then?
Thank you!

I recently did apply for EAD and the documents required are as below
1. Personal check or Money order for 380$. I prefer sending personal check so that i can know if my check was cashed.
2. I did paper filing and not e-Filing. Some say efile is better some say paper filing is better , i felt paper filing is easy and better , as we can track our documents sent.
3. Docs req are
1. Filled EAD Application form
2. your 485 receipt notice copy
3. Current Addresss proof. electricity bill, water bill etc.
3.Copy of the biographic page of passport for each applicant
4. i-94 Copy
5. 2 Photographs
6. SSN copy ( i put it as my attorney suggested but its not mandatory)
7. copy of driver licence
With e-file too, they instantly cash your payment via credit card or debit card. So, you can keep track of it.

Please help me out here.
I filed I-140 in EB2 category on September 30, 2005 at Vermont service center. I also filed I-1485 concurrently with I-140 and fingerprinted in December 2005. My I-140 was approved in June 2006. But I-1485 is still pending due to retrogression/non-availability of visa numbers to Indian nationals in EB2 category.
To avoid the retrogression in EB2 category I filed another I-140 in EB1 (since visa number is available in this category for Indian nationals) on May 1, 2006 at Texas service center (due to bi-specialization). This I-140 was approved in August 2006.
I have following questions regarding my case:
1) Can I use the I-485, which was concurrently filed with EB2 I-140 and link it with EB1 I-140.
a. If yes, where do I file my request since I-485 is pending in Vermont and EB1 I-140 is approved by Texas?
b. If no, is there any other alternative to use the EB1 I-140 priority dates?
Thanks!
