I want to change my job from an university to a company.
I know I have to apply for industrial H1b , but I am not sure whether I MUST wait till 1st Oct to start work.
Does anyone have idea? thanks!
University H1B(non profit/govt org ) is quota exempt...
Others are within cap.

I don't know where I read that you have to go for the finger printing 2 times.

Thanks in advance!

I have heard this before on other forums , too.
I believe, the USCIS CSR confused "unrestricted" SSN with a "restricted" SSN. Most people on some kind of work permit (F1,H1B, EAD) have "Eligible to work with DHS authorization" ( or something similar ) imprinted on their Social Security card ( it certainly is in my social ), and I believe people with GC/USC don't have any such thing written on their SSN ( it's purely a guess by me, I'm yet to see a GC/USC holders SS card ;) ) . So, I don't think people on work permit can work just with DL and SS card ( if they could , why would they have not done until now :confused: ? ) .
But, on the other hand, I'd like to know, if people can continue working on the EAD receipt itself ??

Hi ,
I was convicted of petty larceny in NY. I was convicted of disorderly conduct PENEL CODE 240.20 on 05/25/2006 in NEW YORK . The actual arraignment charges applied were 155.25.165.40.
I performed 6 days of community service. Paid some $75. After a 1 year (5-26-2007) the charges were expunged. I have disposition letter from the NY court.
When I applied for my green card in July 2006 , in the I-485 / green card file I revealed that I was charged, convicted and arrested and my charges were expunged. I got my green card in August 2007 on the bases of VAWA (Violence against women act).
Now, I have been living in Maryland for the last 3 years.(Since September 2007)
I have applied for neutralization.
I am scared that I shall not be deported or citizenship should not be denied because of my conviction which is disposed almost 4 years old.
I have no charges against me after that incident.
I am filing my tax returns every year.
Do you think I can still be denied the citizenship? Or I can be deported ?
I would appreciate your response.
Regards

'Masala Dosa' and I met with staff of Senators Mel Martinez and Bill Nelson. The meetings went very well. We had the opportunity to see the compromise announcement on the floor while we were in the office of Senator Martinez. That was a good deal.
We talked about IV, our individual cases, the need for reform and possible amendments the Senators could raise - like parity with agricultural workers (ability to self-sponser greencard), I-485 application even when priority not current, backlog elimination center update and the need to push it through, support for existing immigration reform bill, explained why the hard country limit is bad for Indians, Chinese and Philippinos and urged them to talk about keeping the limit at 10% and yet allowing unused numbers to flow to India and China.
One observation we had was that the staff had no clue what is the difference between H-1B and Greencard processing. So we spent some time educating them about how the quotas are formed, the caps etc ...
We have them all the material mentioned in the IV site for reading. Hopefully the feedback trickles down to the Senators and we get to have some of our amendments. The best part of it whether these amendments come or not is that we made an attempt to explain our problems to Senators.
Overall, it was a fruitful trip, and a well spent day. I will continue to follow up with the Senators office and keep in touch with the staff. 'Masala Dosa' will follow up with staff at his place.
We need to move on to the next step and target who would be on the committee for reconciling House and Senate versions. I am looking forward to folks who are knowledgeable in this matter to come forward and give the info.
Let us make this bill through this time and get our greencards. :D

Keep monitoring the visa bulletin and when your date (Dec-2006) becomes current you can apply for your wife's 1485 (means u can add her to your application).
If last year's trend continues then you might see your dates becoming Current during the last quater (July-Sept)...last year dates reached Aug.2006 for Eb2 India before retrogressing.
Hey Gurus,
I am in confusion here.
I applied for my I-485(EB2, PD= Dec,2006) in july 2007. I was married that time and my wife was in India. She didnt get delhi consulate appointment so i missed her while i applied for my I - 485. Now she is in US on H4 visa. I got RFE last month on my I 485 regarding employment verification. I have replied for RFE.
My Question here is:-
If I get my green card(that chances are very less because my PD are not current... but on safe side), How i can add her into GC or 485 stage.

You can work on H1B visa till you get FINAL approval or denial.
Whats your attorney openion?
I do not have direct contact with the attorney.
My company hr says i can work as per the attorney.
I am wondering will this have any effect on my I-485?
Can i apply for H1 transfer during this period?
Please advise.

Yes, you can GC is a future job. So its definitely possible.
Does it mean I can file a 485 even without joining the employer and can eventually join him before the 485 is approved. Any risks in this process?
Thanks in advance.

The story goes some thing like this....
My labor was approved by Dallas BEC on 21st June'06 and my employer received a letter to that effect by end of June.
By July 25th my lawyer had everything else in place to file the I-140 but was yet to receive the stamped ETA forms from Dallas...so she concluded the approval was lost in mail. She sent the I-140 petition to nebraska on July 26th with a copy of the approval letter that my employer received along with a letter telling the orginal approval was lost in mail. The lawyer did finally receive the original approval in the first week of August (May be the postman took a scenic route :) ). The I-140 petition was forwarded to Texas under bi-specailization. I received an automated email from USCIS case notification that an RFE was issued on sept 1 but neither the lawyer nor my employer had received any RFE letter up until last Friday (sept 15) so I pressed her to find out more. She called the Texas service center and they told her 'The RFE was not for the employer' It was for the DOL...They sent a request to USCIS for a copy of labor approval and were waiting to hear back...
Now my questions:
1. I know you will say why not ask the lawyer to sent the approval she received in mail to USCIS and resolve the issue. I thought the same but lawyer thinks it will create additional confusion and advises we wait 4 more weeks to see if they decide on the case...if not..only then send the approved ETA forms. Do you think its a wise idea ?
2. Has any one else here gone through similar situation or know some one who did ? How long does it take for USCIS to receive a copy of labor from DOL ? Since Dallas is all electronic now..shouldn't it be as simple as forwarding a screen shot of ETA to the USCIS requesting officer ?
Since EB2 dates for India a retrogrogressed badly I am not in any particular hurry but it would be great if I can atleast get this 140 monkey off my back..Thankyou

Thanks amitjoey .
I140 is already approved Was just waiting for 180 days to finish . So in this time of recession waiting for employer to find a project(corp to corp) or should i accept the offer and wait till i get the EAD to start work .
You absolutely have to wait till the EAD IS approved. Who knows, how long it will take for the EAD CARD?. You applied just 2 weeks back, it could be 2-3 months. Could you wait that long? can your new employer wait that long after you accept the offer?. Your new employer could apply H1 for you. That could be much faster, since you only have to wait for the receipt. (2-3 weeks).
To be able to work, you need either an H1 or an approved EAD

I know that an H1B may be extended beyond the 6 year limit as long as the there has been at least a Labor Cert pending for the past 365 days. So basically, as long as you have a LC pending, the H1B is increased in yearly increments until the GC is approved or denied.
However:
1) Once I-140 is approved, do they automatically extend the H1B (the next time it is due for an extension) by three years?
yes, if your PD is not current and you request 3 years (on the H1 LCA) when you file the extension. Otherwise its a 1 year extension
2) Once you're in that "extension zone" (i.e. past your 6 year limit because of a pending GC application) of your H1B can you still switch jobs? (obviously your new company would have to file a new Labor cert once again for you)?
The USCIS does allow you to get an H1 transfer to a new employer based on the I-140, or LC from some other employer. So if you request a transfer it will go through provided the conditions fo rextension (old LC or approved I-140) exist on the day they adjudicate your case.
The gray area here is what happens to the H1 if the underlying LC or I-140 is then revoked by the old employer. The current USCIS position is that the H1 remains valid (they have not come back and revoked anybody's H1 extension because the underlying LC is gone). However neither the law nor USCIS regulations are clear in this matter.

The silence from those of us not affected by the green card process who are legal immigrants is annoyingly deafening. The entire economy has picked up now and yet legislation takes forever to pass!
What does it take for lawmakers to turn their heads? People holding placcards and signs on streets protesting? Is that the only way to have something heard? Obviously, written articles such as these isn't helping!

Hi, I know this question is being asked by many people. I am sorry, but still confused. My situation is:
EB3 - Labor filed - Aug, 2004 - BackLogged - Philadelphia - 45 day letter - Replied
EB2 - Labor filed - Nov, 2005, Approved, I-140 filed - Mar 2006 - Approved.
Can I continue using EB3, once Labor Approved anbd I-140 Approved, can I use that PD to my EB2? The job description is definately different on EB3 and EB2. Still can I use the EB3 PD on to EB2?
Gurus, Please advise.
Thanks.

You can donate one H1B to someone who needs it...just kidding..your both H1Bs are valid.
No need to update company2 about the extension.
When you go for stamping then carry necessary papers for compnay2...simply forget about compnay1. Thanks.
