That's a good sign for folks who wants to file green card next year and could not file this year becos of bad labor market
The most recent update from the USCIS is showing again a steady approval rate. The jump we saw in October was just due to a more current update of the approval, nit an increase in filing according to the USCIS. If this pace will continue we will see visas all through early 2010, but I may be wrong here...
Ao here is is the update from USCIS: As of November 6, 2009, approximately 54,700 H-1B (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) cap-subject petitions had been filed. USCIS has approved sufficient H1-B petitions for aliens with advanced degrees to meet the exemption of 20,000 from the fiscal year 2010 cap. Any H1-B petitions filed on behalf of an alien with an advanced degree will now count toward the general H1-B cap of 65,000. USCIS will continue to accept both cap-subject petitions and advanced degree petitions until a sufficient number of H-1B petitions have been received to reach the statutory limits, taking into account the fact that some of these petitions may be denied, revoked, or withdrawn.

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.

you can log in to the vfs website and see if a DS157 is available for filling in. If yes, then just fill it out and print it.

Does anyone know how receptive the ASC in Boston is to FP walk-ins? Also, is there ANY way of calling ahead of time and finding out if they accept walk-ins?
Dont you need the FP notice to even enter that building, the guard or the cop standing will not even let you in, if you dont have the FP call for notice.
I never heard of walk-ins :)

Thanks for taking time to answer my query. I have other problem so I am confused about this fact. My spouse's name is correct on passport. but her mother's surname has spelling mistake.All other details are correct. We were not aware of the fact till now. Now we are in the process of applying for I485.
So I am worried about all this. If I take affidavit, it will work?
Thank you

I have the following status working with the original H1B employer who filed for my green card petition:
1) PD Jan, 2007, EB3-I
2) I-140 approved and pending AOS
3) 2 yrs. EAD available, expiring Sep. 2011
4) H1B will be expiring within 3 months (1 year left from 6 years limit)
My questions,
1) Can I use EAD instead of extending H1B? I want to stay with the same employer as a
full time employee.
2) If yes, is it required to inform INS? How and when?
3) In that case, how me, my son (middle school student, H4 & pending AOS) and wife's (EAD & pending AOS) stay in US will be justified with no valid I-94 (assuming I am not extending H1B anymore) ?
Answers to my above questions will be highly appreciated.:confused:
Answers:
1. Yes you can.
2. You do not need to inform INS as such; all you need to do (when you change from h1 to EAD) is to fill out new I-9 form with your employer. Ask your employer/HR dept and it is very easy form to fill out; that basically changes your job status from "H1 to EAD".
3. As long as their AOS is pending, they are all legal; I 94 does not matter. They are in authorized period of stay. Of course, their H4 status will be gone.
Only issue in doing this, is just in case, (by bad luck or something) if your 485 gets denied, then all three of you may not have anything to "fall back on". That is the one risk you take when you let your H1 go. Other than that, make sure everyone has AP (whenever they travel outside) and EAD (if they work/study) and you will be fine.
Good Luck.

Hi,
I have one question. My I-140 is approved in Aug. 2006 and my I-485 applied in Aug 2007 and got my EAD and AP approved in Oct 2007 and renewed once in 2008. Currently I am with the employer through which I filed my green card.
My 6 years of H1b expired on oct 2006 and I took three year extension of H1b based on my pending green card process.
Now my 9th year of H1b is expiring in Oct. 2009.
1) If I take the H1b extenstion for three years(based on my pending I-485) and let say after one year, I start using my EAD with a new employer and my previous employer revokes my H1B....Will I be able to get back on H1B if my I-485 petition get denied for any reason.
All I am trying to see if anything happens to my I-485 petition, will I be able to go back on H1B from EAD.
2) I have been reading in the forums that USCIS is giving hard time for the H1B extenstions. Any experiences on this?
3) How much is the H1B renewal fees?

Please help me in this regard.
I came to US in Sep 2003 using H4 visa. Later in 2004 I applied for H1 visa with two different companies. first one got approved in Oct 2004, second one got approved in Nov 2004. I started working with the second company since Dec 2004.
Now, is it wrong not joining the first company upon approval. Since H1 status starts as soon as visa is approved, have i violated any status rules here by not working with first company at all?. What would be my status since the first H1 was approved and until i started working with second company?
Had i been out of status during the time period between Oct and Nov 2004?
Thank you.

If you do get the F-1 visa, then you likely would not face any difficulty at the airport. However, F-1 visa requires non-immigration intent, which would be very difficult, if not impossible, for you to prove. Unfortunately, even J-1 visa requires you to prove non-immigration intent. So if you go outside USA, very likely you will not be able to get back. Therefore, I believe that traveling in your state is not advisable; you should stay put until your children's father is in a position to marry you. Then you can obtain the fiancee visa (K-1) and travel abroad.

Once you have been outside of the U.S. for more than a year continuously after the approval of your GC, your permanent resident status will automatically terminate as abandoned.

Is the company a Corp, LLC or sole prop?
The tax returns for FY2002, 3 (accepted/filed) can show the Nett Equity of the company - that should be greater than the (total) difference between the PW and actual salary

I just got me H1B approval Notice and copy of I0129 petition. There is nothing wrong with approval bu I notice few things and have few concern questions to the group if some one had similar experience in the past:
1. Passport number was not correctly typed in form I-129 (however copies passport were sent along with the forms by immigration dept)
2. My Alien number does not show up in 797A approval notice as I have pending 485.
3. The I-94# on passport card does not match with the one on new approval notice.
Now My questions is :
Do I need to get this passport#(1) typo fixed now or its ok?
Is it ok not have A# updated in H1B Approval Notice? My wife's H4 have her A#.
Do I need to get my I-94# matched with the one I had in my previous notice and A/D card stapled in passport?
All this happened due to mistakes commited by our Immigration/attorney.Now she is not ready to listen and asks me to call customer service as she thinks its not her problem.
Any suggestions/experience are apreciated.
Thanks
