A great tip from AILA to share with our readers regarding the H1B visa. It seems that H-1B petitions (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) for Speech Language Pathologists (SLP) and similar related occupations are being closely monitored to ensure that accurate job duties are being identified to confirm CGFNS (Commission on Graduates of Foreign Nursing Schools) certification requirements.
There are multiple progressive occupations within the Speech Language Pathology career field including, Teachers of Speech and Hearing Handicapped (TSHH), Teachers of Speech and Language Disabilities (TSSLC), Speech Language Pathologist Assistants (SLPA) and Clinical Fellows (CFY), and Speech Language Pathologists (SLP).
While all of these positions require a state license, only SLPs who are certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) may provide direct patient care without supervision, and thus, only certified SLPs require CGFNS certification.
According to CGFNS, the other related occupations (TSHH, TSSLC, SLPA, and CFY, all of which require a minimum of a bachelor's degree, a license, and direct supervision by a licensed SLP) do not provide independent patient care and must be supervised by a licensed SLP and, therefore, are not eligible for CGFNS certification.
USCIS officers ask that H petitioners carefully delineate the job duties of positions within this career field so that officers can determine whether the position is one of the SLP related occupations that do not require CGFNS certification.

2) After graduation, can she still continue with her internship (using EAD ofcourse) ?
3) If Yes for question 2, then for how long after graduation she can be an intern
Apreciate if someone can give feedback on this.
Thanks in advance,

There is a small but noticeable difference in quality going from 6MP to 10MP. Since I went from 2.7MP to 10MP, I haven't experienced this first hand, but I'm told that the extra 4MP generally allow you to print about one size larger than you felt comfortable with before (hence, if you only accepted 11x14's from 6MP images, then with the 10MP photos you'll probably be happy with 16x20's).
Pixel peeping aside, I'm glad that you're happy with your new gear. Have fun (as I'm sure you will)! :cool:

Hello,
I spoke to my lawyer today and she made it very clear that it is ILLEGAL to file more than one I-485 for one applicant (from 2 diff companies). USCIS will immediately ask you to make a choice.
THought I should share this information

It was a mistake by the guy who stamped I-94 (at CBP).
Her H-4 must be expire on your expiration date.
You need to go to nearest CBP office to get it corrected.
She need deferred inspection to get it straight. USCIS will not do it.
OR Do nothing about it and file H-4 extension along with your H1B extension.
If you do not extend her with your petition, even if she have valid I-94, she may end up in trouble later.

I am a resident physician on h1b visa which is expiring on 6-30-2010 . I am in process of applying for H1B extension for my fellowship. My wife is on H4 visa (expiring in 3-20-2013 since she got 5 yr multiple visa). Recently she visited Kuwait and on her re-entry she was given entry (on her I94) up to 3-15-2013 (up to 5 days prior to her visa expiration). Will she also need extension in this case along with my extension or can she stay in US till 2013 with out extension Thanks.

AFAIK, everybody needs to fill out form I-9.
See here (http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-9.pdf).
I'm going to use EAD under 1099 as an independent contractor, My employer asked me to fill only w-9 form when i joined the company.
My employer doesnt know whether i should fill I-9 form (employment verification eligibility) or not?
Anybody have such experiences to share?

My I-140 was filed via regular processing then later shifted to premium processing in Aug 2006, approved in Oct 2006 Nebraska Center and was received at the NVC in December 2006 and given an NVC Case number.
I know someone who has a priority date of june 2006 and I-140 approved last january 2007. The document is not yet received by the NVC.
Which one will the NVC process first? My papers that was received by the NVC first. Or will it still follow the priority date?
Thank you. Hoping and praying that this retrogression be lifted the soonest time possible.

HI ,
My brother graduated in Dec 08 and is on OPT now. He is with a consultant and he was wondering if there is any rule which states that folks on OPT should get a job in 3 months, otherwise the OPT will not be valid.
Can any one please clarify.
Thank you for your time
as far as i know that in the opt as long as you are employed its fine, even without pay employment works to keep the status active WITHOUT lapsing into the 90 day period. do tell him to cross check with his ISO

Technically, you can do that. But it's better for you to transer your case to consular processing if you are not planning to be in the US for a couple years.
I forget to mention that it is for my wife. she is my dependent with EAD and AP. i know if she have green card she have to stay 6 months in usa. it that applies to EAD and AP also.

As long as you return before the stamping expires on your passport, you are fine. Just carry the new H1B Approval with you and 2-3 recent paystub and a job reference letter from your employer. While entering US, show the new approval and make sure your I-94 has the correct employer name and expiry date. Sometimes the officer makes mistake :)
If I were to go for an India visit, Do I need to have the stamping done again while returning?

The reflection in the wet sand is good & colors are nice, but I agree with Don that there is too much sky for the scale of the figure. I had to look for the silhouette, because the clouds drew my eye to the left of center. A little saturation work would probably make the colors even more appealing. Just my opinion, your mileage may vary. ;)

Hello,
I am really having sleepless nights over this, thinking obsessively over and over.
Here is my situation:
I am working for a consulting company A since Feb 2003, and they filed for my GC in May 2003 in Ohio for a position. Even though I been working for the same company, I am working for a different position in California, and I never worked for the position in OHIO that is on GC Labor.
Now, its been two years I filed my 485, got EAD and everything. After 180 days of 485, my employer asked me to work on EAD (to avoid extending H-1). So now I am officially on EAD and used AP once.
At this time, my contract is coming to an end, can I look for another full time in CA area and use Ac-21 to port.? Is there any issue because even though I am working for the sponsoring employer, but not for the position on GC labor?
Or shall I not file AC-21, take a different job and come back to the sponsoring employer and work for that position upon GC approval? Or is that out of question because I already used EAD that means automatic invocation of AC-21?
Please suggest. Thanks

Can you walk in for un-scheduled apointment? ... Now days this might not be permissible, but I remember 5 yrs ago at Toronto consulate, after all scheduled applicants have been lines up timewise, un-scheduled applicants were asked to form line behind on first come first basis. Not sure if anyone got chance, as I was like most lined up ahead in scheduled lineup. But wonder if it is still permitted, how about taking chance?

Hi All
I am on a B1 - Visa visited 4 times to USA.But last time (4th time) i over stayed for about 20 days after the i-94 expired.
Normally first 3 times they gave i-94 for 3 months, last time it is only for 2 months, so it's my mistake i haven't looked it till iam
back. All this happened in June 2009. Now i am aproved for H1 - B for the year 2010. I need to face a visa interview. In DS 156
Application, Question No 38. ( Have you ever voilated the terms of a U.S. Visa or Been unlawfully present in,........)
I am checking the option Yes. Can you all help me in this please. Does 20 days extra stay will effect my H1 - B visa or if i get
the Visa, when i go to USA on H1 - B Visa does immigration stop me. Please help me on this case. Thanks a lot for all your
help.

My application for an H1B change of status has been denied. I am an F-1 student from Colombia and I was offered a job from THe CDC at Atlanta. According with the USCIS report, the petition was denied because I am going to be hired for a staffing company and not directly for the CDC. It will be possible to appeal the desicion ? If yes, what will my sponsor company need to be succesful with this appealing ?
