Hello I am in H4 in usa.
I have applied for change of status to H1b this year, but still now I haven't received the decision form USCIS.
In the mean time, my H4 status along with I-94 is getting experied by the end of this month Oct. I am not able to file H4 extension as this would overlay my probable H1b status.
Now, If I dont get any decision on my H1b and I don't file H4 extention by the end of this month, what would be status after that? Would I become Out Of Status? What should I do under this situation?
You have 2 options
1. Convert your h1 to premium processing and hopefully get it approved before
your current h4 expires
2. apply for h4 extension - and wait for your h1 application to get through
To be really conservative - its best to file for H4 extension anyway irrespective
of whether you convert your h1 to premium
Dont let your h4 expire cause you wont have any valid status - if for some reason your h1 gets denied
Good luck!

In year 1999, AnnaLee Saxenian of Public Policy Institute of California did a study on immigrant engineers and scientists in Silicon Valley and the effect they had on California's economy. She contended that foreign-born engineers in Silicon Valley�s technology industry made a substantial and growing
contribution to regional job and wealth creation.
Here is the full report on that study:
http://www.ppic.org/content/pubs/report/R_699ASR.pdf
Today, a new study titled "Silicon Valley's New Immigrant Entrepreneurs", by researchers in the master of engineering management programme at the Pratt School of Engineering at the Duke University was released.
The study covered 28,766 firms with annual sales of more than USD 1 million and 20 or more employees. The lead researcher Vivek Wadhwa, contends that "this study shows the tremendous contribution immigrants in general and Indians in particular are making to the US economy and global competitiveness. This is a win-win for America and for the immigrants that make it here."
Here is the full report on the latest study:
http://memp.pratt.duke.edu/downloads/americas_new_immigrant_entrepreneurs.pdf
Both the above reports go towards re-inforcing our arguments. Core members may want to retain copies of these reports some place. Salient points of these two reports should be used in some of the presentation material we prepare.

Hi,
I have my I140 approved couple of years ago and now our company is being acquired by another firm. As a result I may lose my job. I am on 5th year of H1 and have I140 copy.
I got an offer with a project from a top consulting firm who is willing to transfer my H1 and also carry forward GC.
However I am concerned, as that consulting firm has the history of cancelling the H1 once they could not find any new projects after the current project. But in current market scenario, I could find any other opportunity and it may be necessary to join that firm.
So lets say after one/two years, if I lose my job with that firm and want to carry forward my H1/GC with other company, will it be possible?
What should I ask the firm now (terms and conditions, before start working with them) to make my self in safe position later on?
Thanks for your advice.

- what documentation is required to be submitted to the USCIS about the new job.
Employment letter along with AC21 letter.
- What kind of documentation is required from the employer vs myself
All you need from employer is employment letter.
- When/how soon has this documentation is to be submitted
I am not aware of any deadlines.
- When do i need to apply for my renewal of my EAD card
- What documentation is required to be submitted for the EAD renewal from employer vs myself
Check 765 application form instructions on uscis.gov for both above.
- Is it advisable to employ the services of an attorney if we run into issues.
Sure, based on your questions above - an attorney may be useful to you. They can tell you what docs you need, where to get those from and to apply for renewals.
- I worked on similar job for very short stints in between, but it was for a few weeks, does it endanger my case in anyway.
Based on what you have told so far, doesn't seem like those endanger anything.

The big Brand Law firms want to charge more than 3000$ for this.
But the small ones are willing to do this at less than half of that.
So i guess i will go with the smaller onces

Currently on H4 and validity expires on 09/23/2010. Can be applied for extension when principal applicants H1B is being extended(from his company), but since I have my H1B case filed with USCIS, will it create any conflict if I apply for H4 extension now? (ideally for 7 days (23rd sept to 30th sept) !! 'coz if approved, H1B status becomes valid from Oct 1st, right? )
Also, is there any rule which states that, when a case is pending with USCIS, legally you are not supposed to leave the country?
Thanks in advance,
Sabitha
your question is that you are on h4 and have applied for H1. Your h4 will expire in sept.
If your h1b is approved, your h4 extension will be invalidated.... i think. check with the lawyer though

You now protest when other countries make it difficult for you to get a visa.
US, UK protest as India gets tough on visas - India - The Times of India (http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/US-UK-protest-as-India-gets-tough-on-visas/articleshow/5367548.cms)
I think it works well from both angles (visitor, citizen of India) after the new rules. I am not sure why people were allowed to enter on travel visas if they were clearly coming for business.

Hello everybody,
this is my first post on these forums, I've been reading around a fair bit for the past couple of weeks on immigration related websites, and especially IV.
As it has been so far the best source of information for me I want to ask a question that is pretty confusing...
From what I understood, being eligible for EB-2 is one of the best ways to get a GC in a reasonable delay (let's say around a year according to the first post of unitednations on http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=3250).
From what I understood that would merely require to have an arrangement with a company willing to help you in the tedious path to a GC instead of owning you with the H1-B.
There is where my question comes about EB-2 elibility as I'm really confused about the value of my french engineering degree in IT (5 years college, Diplome d'Ingenieur) and the possibility to find a position eligible for EB-2 that wouldn't require experience.
So my question consists of two parts :
- Is there any way to officially check that my degree is equivalent to an US Masters Degree ? (Wikipedia says yes, but I couldn't find any authoritative/official source)
- Is there any way that a position in the IT field that would require such a Masters Degree could be eligible for EB-2 even without work experience requirements ?
Thanks again to all IV folks and other who spend time sharing their precious information.

we are going through it right now.
planning to file g-28 only and not AC-21 letter.
Will wait for a RFE to send a AC-21 letter.
Are you self filling G-28 or doing through another lawyer?

He will have to file labor again.
Few things to note:
� It does not matter if he is PhD or not, what matters is that the job for which his company will be applying his Labor justifies a Masters or PhD. If he qualifies, then yes, go ahead and file a new labor.
� New labor is not as fast to get approved as was earlier. It is taking from anywhere 12-14 months now a days to get it approved. It is only after labor approval that you can port.

Hi All,
I am here in US on a H1B and my wife is on a H4. She recently got admission to a graduate school and has to start next week. I am worried that if I get her COS for the next semester (this is a 1 year program), then woud she be eligible to get her OPT at the end of the program? She would have been on a F1 for less than a year, but would have completed the Master's program.
I tried to get more information, but what I saw was that the OPT eligiblility requirement is atleast 1 full academic year on F1. Is this correct?
Help is greatly appreciated.
I am in the similar boat, don't worry your wife can always take etc classes as electives, and complete her one year. You can always pick etc classes, and make sure you remain in legal F1 visa status.
