Found the old J1 Visa stamped in the passport. It does list the 212(e) requirement.
At the time when I got the first H1, I had 2 years, or close to 2 years of accrued stay in Russia. I should definitely have 2 years by now.
What could be the result of not having had full 2 years at the time of first H1? What could be the effect on the currently active H1?
If I show that right now I have 2 full years, would the AOS proceed, or are there any retroactive problems?

Hi :
I had applied for H1 when from india apil 2007, and in may 2007 i entered US on H4. My h1 got approved in aug 2007 asking me to get the stamping done from india. My consultant applied for H1 amendment on sep 21 2007. Its 8 weeks now, still not got any reply from INS.
1. I would like to know,how long does it generally take for h1 B amendment process.
2. Since the amendment is taking a long, can i go to mexico and re-enter
Regards,
Tanya

My in-laws got their visa at new delhi consulate on friday. they had appointment in english at new delhi. I had been looking for hindi appt dates at new delhi since june mid every day for 6-7 hours at morning and evening but could not get any hindi dates. Finally, had to book english dates on july 23 for july 30 appointment. here is my in-laws' experience:
first, they had a VO who asked them qs in english with accent. they were not able to understand a thing, so they requested him to ask qs in hindi after which he asked them to go to another counter where a young guy asked them qs in hindi. he was very polite and smiling all the time.
VO: Show me ur daughter's visa
we did not send them my wife's visa since i was sponsoring them.
Dad: We do not have daughter's visa. Here is son-in-law's visa
VO looked at the visa (I-797 and visa stamp copy), checked in computer for 4-5 mins and then asked
VO: Was it an arranged marriage?
Dad: Yes
VO: Tell me more about the process.
Dad: It was arranged marriage. My son-in-law's parents contacted us and then the girl and boy met each other and .....he described the process of arranged marriage.
VO smiled and asked: What do you do?
Dad: I am a businessman.
VO: What kind of business you do?
Dad told about his business
VO: Aapka Visa Manzoor ho gaya hai (Your visa has been approved).

this is my understanding but a lawyer answer but you should consult a lawyer
Since you have started your GC process and shown your intent to immigrate your F1 will be denied.
H1 is a dual intent visa ( you enter as non immigrant but U can immigrate on it) and hence application of GC has no implication on it.
Again I am not a lawyer so consult one.

My H1B transfer got denied on last month because of end client contract was not provided.
At this time, we are trying get to all contract details(start to end client) and file new h1b petition (CAP Exempt) on premium processing and Lawyers are suggesting me to go for Counslar Processing.
I want to know What are options have to selected on I-129 for counslar processing (I am going through Lawyer However, I want to ensure that we are selecting right one)
On I-129 Form, Part 2,
Question 2: Basis for Classification (Check one):
a. New employment (including new employer filing H-1B extension).
b. Continuation of previously approved employment without change with the
same employer.
c. Change in previously approved employment
d. New concurrent employment.
e. Change of employer
f. Amended petition
Question 5: Requested Action (Check one):
a. Notify the office in Part 4 so the person(s) can obtain a visa or be admitted.
(NOTE: a petition is not required for an E-1 or E-2 visa).
b. Change the person(s)' status and extend their stay since the person(s) are all
now in the U.S. in another status (see instructions for limitations). This is
available only where you check "New Employment" in Item 2, above.
c. Extend the stay of the person(s) since they now hold this status.
d. Amend the stay of the person(s) since they now hold this status.
e. Extend the status of a nonimmigrant classification based on a Free Trade Agreement. (See Free Trade Supplement for TN
and H1B1 to Form I-129).
f. Change status to a nonimmigrant classification based on a Free Trade Agreement. (See Free Trade Supplement for TN and
H1B1 to Form I-129).
Any help appriciated.

My PD is July 2004 EB2 with RD 02 July 2007, ND 09 Aug 2009. NC cleared in Oct 2007, Biometrics renewed by USCIS Feb 2009 and all primary and dependent cases PreAdjudicated on 13th Apr 2009.
While doing routine status check this month by opening SR's I came to know that USCIS has screwed up my EB category on my pending I-485 application in NSC. Looks like the data entry was screwed by the USCIS contractors or mail room personell. Also the PreAdj process also completely overlooked this mistake and preadjudicated my case. Because of their mistake my case was not even considered for approvals this month and also last years when the dates were current.
I created multiple SR's and did 3 infopass appointments to find out what is the current EB Classification and finally was able to confirm through infopass appointment that USCIS has put me and my family in EB3 category (GC category E36, E37, E38) instead of EB2 (E21).
SR response were vague and did not help much. Infopass appointments were of very little help as IO's in Dallas Infopass center are not trained to handle EB - I485 related issues. They don't have access to enough information to help us. They don't know how to use their own system to find information. Tried POJ method to reach IO but always got connected to useless CSR's.
I have only one I-140 in Eb2. My lawyer wrote to USCIS this Friday. I don't know when USCIS will correct the mistake so that they can Adjudicate my case being current this month and next month.
CSR's are not letting me open SR's as I have already opened 3 SR's ( 2 on my own and 1 through IO in infopass).
Did anyone has any similar experience with USCIS screwing up their application? If yes how were you able to get this fixed. Please post if you have any USCIS-NSC expedited addresses, FAX numbers, Direct contact addresses for Senior USCIS officals or procedures for submitting issues. Any help with be greatly appreciated.

But just make sure your parents carry a document that has details about your name, ssn, address, job, etc.
In case the office asks where they are going to stay, etc. They might know all this, but will be helpful to have on paper too.
Other than that, nothing is required, just their passports and visas.
Dont forget to get medical insurance. Ofcourse its not mandatory.

1. NOW, if you are switching to company B. Company A may want to request extension only from Nov 2010, so for that the earliest is June 2010.
2. You can file H1B extension on company B based on your approved & valid 140 in company A.
3. Not necessarily. At any time, whenever you file extension, the criteria is checked again. Means if the 140 is revoked after getting 3 year extension, then the next H1 filing will get rejected, since you don't have a pending 140 anymore. So the answer is, it depends on whether you have a pending/valid LC/140 at that time.
My 6 years on H1b expires on Nov 2010. I have 140 approved from company A.
1.What's the earliest I can apply for 3 year H1b extension based on my 140 approval?
2. If I switch to company B right now and get company B to file for labor using my approved labor's priority date, are there any time restrictions for filing H1b extension?
3. Suppose I get a 3 yr H1b extension from company A, can i switch to different company after that using that H1b visa?
Any feedback is welcome. Thanks.

Hi, I am currently on my 5th year H-1B visa. I have an option to stay with the same firm and they will help me apply greencard. But I am also considering an opportunity in Bermuda for a 2-3 year program (with the same firm).
My question is if I come back to the US after 2 years, will I be able to apply H-1B visa again? Will it be a whole new H-1B petition/application process subject to the H-1B cap?
Or will it be just another H-1B renewal process following my previous two terms?
Do I need to wait for another two terms of H-1B to expire before starting the greencard process?
Can I ask my currently employer to apply for greencard concurrently while I am working outside the US?
Thanks,
E
1) Yes you can come back fter 2 years and apply for a new H1B , you will get a new H1 for 6 years .
Can I ask my currently employer to apply for greencard concurrently while I am working outside the US?
YES , YES , YES ...if you can get this done that will be the best option...
file a GC application and apply for Consulare proces ,

However recently, i noticed that i am receiving $5373(instead of $5500) per month since Sept'2010 till date.
I informed to my employer and he is willing to increase the pay from March.
Is it possible to correct it from March payroll.
Please advise.

Hi All,
I have a strange issue, paining me since I have joined this new company, ( I am using AC21, since I am on EAD and AC21 is not yet filed). I am one of those unlucky fellows with really long name(First Name) stuck on my passport, and I have been using this all along, as my legal name while applying for visa/485 related activities. However, I go by the last part of the First Name and so all my other records here (like DL, SSN card, Bank Accounts, 401K account, etc) have got the last part of the First Name as my first name.My H1-B visa had the complete first name printed on it, and so I have been thinking, people could see that the name I have been using is in the last part of the complete First Name on the Visa and Passport.
However, in the EAD card, the name got cut(or incomplete) as the entire first name could not be printed on it. When I showed this to the new employer, they are using the name as displayed on the EAD card(which is not what I go by) in all the accounts they are establishing, like Paycheck, 401K info, ESPP etc.
Now I am in a soup, I have requested them to use the last part of the first name, which they are chcking with their immigration lawyers. But in the meanwhile, I want to know, does any one has this kind of problem. What should we do if the name is incomplete on the printed EAD card? (Ofcourse once I get GC, I would rather change this damn name)
Any one has any ideas?
Thanks
