Hello,
I am working on H1-b visa. My green card stage: Priority date July '06, EB3, India. I-140 approved, I-485 filed Sept'07. I don�t intend to use EAD for employment now.
I have a need to get my future spouse on H-4 visa. With EB3 India priority dates retrogressed, filing dependent I-485 for spouse is years away. (Unless rules change!)
Question 1: IF I loose my H1-b status (job loss) and find a new job using my EAD, my spouse on H-4 goes out of status. So what all options do I have to keep her in a valid status?
Question 2: Proactively, say my spouse (when on valid H-4 status) starts a Masters program (part-time) at a University, can she file for a H4 to F-1 change of status (COS) that very week or month I loose my job. Or are there any serious timing issues in this option?
Thx

Today, I received an email from USCIS that my EAD application got approved. My receipt date is on the 3rd week of May of 2007. What I don't understand is that the current processing time at NSC for I-765(EAD) for pending I-485 is March 26th, 2007.....
We have the exact same situation down to the receipt date :eek: I was so shocked I almost fell off my chair when I got my email. A completely unexpected surprise but a good surprise, nevertheless.

I did the same thing for my husband. But since they have his h1b papers as well i think it should not be a big probblem.
Thanks
I have already sent my 485 application
1-140 cleared
In the field I94# and expiration I entered I 94 number which is on the white card on the passport and it is the same as the number on my renewed h1 papers.However I entered expiry date from the i94 on the passport,which is oct06 instead of the 010 date in the renewal.
will that be a problem..? CAN I CORRECT IT AFTER I get the reciept no or will thay be able to verify with the latest h1 paper that i94 is valid

Hi,
I will be grateful if anyone can give me advice about this situation:
I was on H1B for company A. I got an offer from company B last week and I just visit POE to get the TN visa
with new I-94 card. My TN support letter and offer letter clearly state my first date for company B is
09/07/2010, that is, 2 weeks from now.
The problem is that I assumed I could still work for company A(my H1B sponsor) for another two weeks, so, I
planned to let my employer know the coming Monday, to fulfill my 2 weeks notice advance promise in the next
two-week time. However, I heard that my H1B would be void as soon as I got my TN visa, is that true?
That is, will the status change(from H1B to TN) start from the time I got the TN visa at POE(09/22/2010),
or from the time I start my new work for company B on 09/07/2010? Is the H1B visa still valid for me to
work for company A for another two weeks before I start my new work?
If my H1B visa really became invalid at this time, I will have to tell my manager at company A the true and
appologize for that, although I feel very bad about that. If not, I worry I would be caught by the
government and charged for illegally work for two weeks, then I will be in big troubleshoot for further
immigration petitions(TN, H1B, even GC, etc.).
Please advise and if possible, please provide references with which I could show my H1B sponsor/employer.
Thank you very much!

Sending to TSC is fine as your 140 is approved from there. My 140 was approved from TSC and my 485 was send to TSC. I was worried that it was not send to NSC but I already got my rect numbers

Thanks for the reply. What I understand even there is no position for EB2 currently, EB2 can be filed for future employment.
Do you know anybody who was in the same situation and converted from EB3 to EB2.

I'm a July 2007 filer going to file for my EAD for the first time. Since I'm currently on H1B, how should I answer this question
I'm applying for:
a) Permission to accept employment
b) Replacement
c) Renewal of my permission to accept employment
I think I need to go with option "c" since moving from H1B to EAD would qualify for a "c" response
Please advise.....
Thanks
The option "a" will be used, for "c" you need previous EAD. Refer to http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=18737, which addresses several issues.

I was wondering if anyone has any info on the job
market for international students in NY. I will be graduating
in Dec and will be on the job market soon.
Some of my friends say that there are jobs to be had but
not many are keen on sponsoring H1, even non-tarp firms.
Can anyone confirm/refute this?

What my lawyer said was correct. Yesterday evening received the approval email and card production email. In the case of same employer, interfiling is not necessary. USCIS took care of it automatically.
Best of luck to every one.

Hi,
I need to renew my passport at the Indian Consulate in NY. I
have a couple of quick questions. It would be great if someone could
answer them for me.
(1) Do I need to leave my I-94 card in when I give them my
old passport? Is it OK if I remove it? Do they make a big deal of this?
A. It is OK to remove the i-94
(2) In the online form, what do I choose for the "Service Desired" field?
"Re-issue of passport"?
A. Yes, if you are sending the application within one year of your old passports expiry.
Best Regards,
Euclid

You left out the crucial piece of info...what is your nationality? What country is your passport from? THAT, not your residency in Sweden, will determine whether or not you need a transit visa. You can use the site below to find out. Just fill in all the blanks and click for the info.

Finterpring while H1 stamping is different. You need to get finterpring again when you apply for I485. They took my fingerprinting when I went for H1 stamping(though it was couple of years ago), but gave finger printing again after applying for 485.
So better you contact USCIS. Search in IV forums, I read sometime back that there are some people who didnt get fingerprinting notice.

Sen. Patrick Leahy ( D-Vermont ) introduced the Uniting American Families Act ( S. 424 ) earlier this year; it has 18 co-sponsors. The bill would allow same sex couples the same immigration rights as married heterosexual couples. Passage of the bill is likely to be tied to overall immigration reform.
At the moment, same-sex partners of legal immigrants do not have the same rights to dependent status that heterosexual spouses get. This is true even if the couple is legally married in their home country. Often, the "dependent" partner must apply for a B-2 visitor visa at the consulate, to accompany his/her partner. This visa is discretionary, and consulates could refuse to issue it. In addition, B-2 status does not allow the dependent partner to work in the US. Many heterosexual dependent spouses have a status that doesn't allow them to work either, however.
As the New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/03/us/politics/03immig.html) reports:
Senator Leahy�s bill would add the term �permanent partner� to sections of current immigration law that refer to married couples, and would provide a legal definition of those terms.
�I just think it�s a matter of fairness,� he said Tuesday in an interview, noting that a number of American allies, including Canada, France and Germany, recognize same-sex couples in immigration law. Photo by http://www.flickr.com/photos/boscobridalexpos/

Hi, I have question about my case.
My family was applied I-485 by my mom's working at the company, and all my family had EAD which is working permit and received SSN with that EAD.
However, 2008 January our I-485 have got denied because of sponsor got closed.
That was the before our EAD card gets expired. So I couldn't renew the EAD card.
So My question is, is there any way to renew that EAD now?
if I still want to work, what does I have to do?
The EAD is a benefit of being in AOS --- i.e., due to pending I-485 approval. When your I-485 (I-485 applications are individual applications) was denied, your EAD stopped being valid. If you did not stop working, then you were working illegally (assuming that you had no other work VISA). So you have been out of status for more than 2 years, and possibly accrued unlawful presence for a similar period as well. If your unlawful presence accumulated to 180 days, that will trigger a 3 year ban from entering US, and a 10 year ban if the unlawful presence is 1 year or more.

I don't think one can open a account from india in US bank. However i had visited a website which says that anyone in the world can do business from USA. I tried it but did not.
I am in H1B and i opened a business account in USA. The procedure is to get a fititcious businesss name from the citi and open a account in any of the banks. Later apply for a business license from the city. Every year you will have to file tax return (i do it on the month of december). It is very easy and consulars help over there. Additionally you have a advantage to talk to any of the SCORE/SBA members and improve your business.
Regarding opening a business account, Wells fargo charges $10/- every month and later if you talk to them about low activity account they will charge you $8/- per month. Citibank needs a lot of information and they charge $10/- a month. I had avoided citibank after spending 3 hours interacting with the teller. The best is Washington Mutual (which is Chase now). there is no charge and i think they need atleast one transaction every year.
Hope this helps.
