Two reasons why this will take long time;
1. Multiple languages spoken in EU. Outside England, everybody prefers conversation in their native language. This will be big barrier for english speaking asian community.
2. UK did this experiment and failed. A lot of Doc's left UK to US, Canada and Australia.
So I won't suggest anyone to venture into EU. US is still the best place for foriengers and immigrants.

Gurus,
Pls advice
1. Does Employer still have any ways to revoke the I140 even after 180days crossed from the filling of I485, if Iam transfering my H1 to other company.
2. Also for new job if I were to get title such as Senior Software Engineer, or Data engineer wherein my appointment letter/I140 shows as a Programmer. Will it be difficult to raise AC21 though responsibilities match in both the jobs.

Hello all,
I am an Indian national currently in the AOS-pending state. My wife & I are looking to adopt a child either from India/US or a different country. From what I have found out, this seems to be a herculean task. Is this even possible? Has anyone successfully completed this process, or know of the details/steps involved. Any information is appreciated.
Thanks

I know what looneytunezez says is logical, however, a friend of mine who is a paralegal in a big immigration lawfirm says otherwise (something similar to what blacktongue says) - don't know what to make of it, hence the post..

As long as visa is stamped she can enter us on the last date of expiry of visa.
If you get your renewal approved when she is in India send her the approved letter original (courier it) so that she can show to the officers at port of entry and this new date will be entered in I94 expiry. If she dont show it then she will get I94 for only few day depending on officer and you will have to apply for extention again.
Check with attorney that I am correct :)

The USCIS system if often messed up, as long as you have received your approval you are good to work on H-1. In rare cases they may decide to send an notice to revoke after they approve the case since they have overlooked something. I would not worry until i actually get such a notice, also you can have your employer call national customer service to make sure everything is okay with your approval.

I have an approved I-140 and my 3-year H1-B extension is currently being processed but not in premium and has not been approved yet.
I have decided to leave the job/country and want to know if there were any consequences of leaving without the approval (current I-94 has a July 2010 expiration date). I am still working and technically in status as it is in process but the approval could take a few more months. Should I push for premium? Any advice? I would hate to have any problems with getting future visas to the US, either tourist or getting back on an H1-B.
Many thanks!
you abandon your app if you leave the country AFAIK.

Immigration Law from Houston Immigration Lawyer - Annie Banerjee Has Just Posted the Following:
Today's Wall Street Journal has their main front page article on how H-1B quotas have not been used up yet and argues that the market should dictate the numbers rather than Government quotas.
Arbitrary quotas have been ruled unconstitutional by all courts in every domestic affairs except for immigration law. You cannot have quotas for segregation or desegregation, for diversity in public education. You cannot have quotas at workplace. We read in Law School that quotas inherently violate due process. But I had to throw my constitution down my office window when I started practicing immigration law.
When the colonists came to America, there was no problem, no quotas. White Anglo Saxon Protestants could simply come and work. Then as more and more Italians and Chinese came in, restrictions began to be put in from 1875 onwards. Chinese were banned because they were "Coolie labor" for lewd and immoral purposes. After World War 1, the Congress restricted immigration to 2% of their nationality already settled in America. Since there were no non white people in the US at that time, most of Asia and Africa was shut out from the US. This was done to preserve the racial mix in the United States. Since then a lot of restrictive immigration Acts establishing arbitrary quotas were enacted and still valid today. The Permanent Residency Process has quotas in both Employment based and Family Immigration. So does the H-1B program for bringing in the brightest and the best.
These quotas have risen from anti Immigration and Xenophobic attitudes prevalent in America. As the Wall Street Journal points out, why should a very bright person from say India or China come to the US to be treated as a second class citizen, at the bottom of the social ladder? They would rather stay in their own country which are emerging economies. Yet, as the WSJ articles point out, 35% of Microsoft patents were developed by immigrants, and the person who developed Google News was an H-1B from India.
Those patents will just go to India, and someday the children or grandchildren of these anti immigration forces will seek immigration to India.

We can't mount fire-fighting operation on each and every front. Let's ignore them.
We have a purpose to tell, educate, highlight the issues we all legal immigrants face. This has happened under this Republican Regime. Various reasons - mainly lack of funds, lack of green card numbers, lack of staff etc.
We can continue writing small specific personal letters to lawmakers. Then as a group we address employers asking them their effort to help them best employees.
I was browsing the jobs forum on craigslist and i was shocked to see some user urging people to call Senator Cornyn to not push H1 and Eb visa increases.

Hi Friends,
I am visiting to India on vacation and need to go for H1B renewal. My natvie place is in Andhra Pradesh, near to Chennai. So, i am comming from USA to Chennai, and wants to go to Chennai Consulate for stamping.
In vfs site the moment i select AP, it showing only Hyderabad appointment dates. how to choose and schedule appointment in Chennai consulate?
Can any of you suggest, how to proceed? is there any issues of going to Chennai rather Hyderabad?

Hi California members,
There is an IV action item to fight recent practice of USCIS in denying I485 applications in some AC21 cases. For more info, please visit:
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=22182
It�s a serious issue which can affect many of us, please act now and send letters (letter formats and everything else is ready in the thread quoted above). It will only take a few minutes of your time.
State chapter leader,
Please try to bring attention of your state members to this IV core approved effort.
Thank you.
CAn you tell me the logic of posting multiple threads with this subject - wont just bumping the thread give you the same effect - this is really irritating

Hello Gurus,
My wife is on H4 since 2004 and we filed H1 (Jan. 2007) and her H1 status is pending at this moment. I am about to file 485 (July 2007 current bulletin) very soon.
I have mentioned that she is on H4 in the I485 related docs. I thought her H4 becomes invalid ONLY after H1 is APPROVED. Is this correct? Please let me know.
Thanks for your help.

Dear Friends,
Can I quite my current job in the US and go back to india for 6 months come back on AP and find similar job ? is this possible ? how long can I stay in india
before my I-485 status "runs out" ?
My PD is June 2005/EB2. I am a July 2 filer. I have received I-485 receipt,EAD and AP.
Thanks.
If your current employer is your GC sponsor, won't he withdraw its I-140 if you quit? As I-140 is for future job, if you and him continue to have intent of making employee/employer relationship as per filed I-140, you can do whatever you want in the meantime, but you would need to work for him on getting your GC. Or you can wait and hope that I-140 is not approved within 180 days. In that case you can move to the new employer. Employment with sponsoring employer prior to GC approval, paystubs, etc. are only for establishaing and restrengthening expressed intent.

If your H-1B status started on 10/1/05, then your 6th year is 9/30/11, as you suggest. By 9/2011 your LC will, have been pending for 365 days so you can get a 7th year extension. Maybe the attorney thinks that August 2010 is the end of your 6th year. You should confirm the dates with her/him.
You cannot request a H-1B extension more than 6 months before the start date. For example, if you want the new H-1B to start on 8/15/10, your employer cannot file before 2/16/10.

I got an RFE in Oct 2008 and responded to it. I a, hoping that I'm not going to get another RFE and also hoping that my application is pre-adjudicated and once the visa numbers are available (within one to ten years?!), i'll get the GC.
