If IV is critical about the spelling... "immivoice" handle is still available...
I think if IV has regular updates, twitter makes so much sense for such a cause..
damn someone named islevista or something like that took IV and is actively using the handle :(

Hi all!
Wat would be the status of F1 student (OPT) mother of a US born baby after her visa expires, who is a single parent???
It would be illegal.

Hi All,
Please help me on this. Here is the situation:
1. Company A First time H1B - Oct 1, 2004
2. Company B transfer - Jan 22, 2006
3. My current visa is expiring on Jan 22, 2009, but after Jan 22, 2009, I still have till Oct 1, 2010 to complete my 6 years of H1B.
4. Now, my wife who is on H-4 is currently in India on vacation, since she is not in US, her H-4 extension cannot be filed.
My question is, can I file my H-1 extension and go to India and get both of our visas stamped based on my extension? Or does my wife need to come back on her currently valid visa and file for her own H-4 extension?
Please advise and pardon me for my ignorance on this.
Thanks in advance,
DSP

Hello,
Iam currently on OPT till April 16th 2010. I have been offered a Job in a non profit organization for the position of an accountant. The current rate I will be getting paid is 16$ per hour and the company has agreed to apply for my H1B in March 2010.
The company that I will be working for are totally unaware of the Immigration laws as I will be their first H1B hire. Now according to the department of labour, the minimum hourly salary rate is 19.93$ an hour for an accountant.
If the company appiles for my H1B before april 15th 2010, by when will they have to increase my horuly rate to 19.93 $ ?
Should the increase happen on October 1st 2010 when the H1B kicks in,
or should the increase happen when the H1B gets approved ( between april - october )
or should the company increase my salary to 19.93$ an hour even before we apply for H1B ?
or should the increase in the pay happen on the date of expiry of my OPT, i.e. April 16, 2010
I also know that I am eligible for H1B cap gap (for the period between the expiry of OPT and the date the H1B kicks in).
Hoping for your valuable replies as soon as possible.
Thanks

Illinois Congressman: Immigration Reform Cannot Wait : NPR (http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=114199526)
President Obama says he wants to change United States immigration policy. But so far, immigration has taken a backseat to other pressing issues, like health care, the economic recession and the ongoing conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq. But Rep. Luis Gutierrez, a Democrat from Illinois, wants to bump immigration to the top of the President's agenda. Gutierrez explains why he thinks comprehensive immigration reform cannot wait any longer.

Hi Sri,
Don't panic. This is NOT the end of your immigration journey. You are covered by AC-21, so if you find a job in a similar occupation with another employer, you can certainly take it. Your employer should seriously consider appealing the denial in order to preserve its reputation and to continue to employ H-1 workers.
If you have reason to believe that your employer might not be fully compliant with immigration laws, particularly as they relate to labor certifications and I-140's, you would be most protected if you changed employers

Currently there are a lot of RFE's and renewal denials when they try to renew onsite. So they have been asked to go back to get renewed and once its successful, they come back. They are just being cautious.

Ajay,
Thank you for your reply.
I am assuming that you did not apply for AP earlier.
You took the Infopass and got the AP in 2 weeks.
[I read in the USCIS website that, if you had applied for AP & if you have to travel in emergency, they speed it up & issue the AP during Infopass appointment].
I think it is true whether we have an AP application in process or not.
Did you take photos, check, I-485 receipt etc., along with you to the InfoPass interview?
It is good to know that we can get AP if we have to travel urgently.
Did they say they would mail the AP to your address in your Infopass
appointment?
Thank you for your help!

I am sure IV has thought about this...
But just curious if there are any mainstream News channels or Media that is covering or publishing anything about the IV Advocacy event and IV's agenda?
thx
The aim of advocacy day was to meet lawmakers. It was not really for media publicity. It was not a rally. Infact we canceled the press event that we originally planned to focus on lawmaker meetings. There are already hundreds of articles in the media on Greencard backlogs published in the last 4 years. Articles will anyways be published when there is activity in DC on this issue. Reporters contact us every now and then for stories. The most important work we need to do is meet our lawmakers in person and get relief on Immigration. We believe we have been very successful in the task of meeting lawmakers and administration officials during the advocacy days. This will help us in the Immigration reform next year. We now need to continually work on reinforcing and advocating our changes until the bill comes on the floor. You will see lots of media articles on this issue when there is any discussion on relief in the months to come.

My PD is 2006 under EB-2 category. My family and I filed for GC on the same day. Now, I am planning to file a new I-140 under EB1. My kid is going to be 18 soon. What is the age limit for dependent to file for GC with the parents?
Your reply is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I know there has been lot of discussions on things to do and not to do after changing jobs - but seems like there is no definitive conclusion. Thought of getting opinion on following:
(i) Generally people suggest to send G28 to change the lawyer representation - this helps in tracking what is going on without missing any RFE's.
(ii) Regarding AC21 letter informing USCIS there are contradicting advice even from lawyers - some say that dont do anything until they issue an RFE. Thinking here is that we would attract USCIS attention by sending an AC21 letter that could potentially delay. By not sending the letter they might just approve without any questions.
Based on this, I initially thought of sending just G28 but not AC21 letter. But once we send G28 to change lawyer representation, my application get USCIS's attention anyway - so I am thinking why not send AC21 letter as well as a back up.
Any opinions?
Thanks.
You may want to change lawyers for many reasons including personal dissatisfaction, lawyers messing up, high fees , and more... I do not think this will attract so much attention in comparison.Just my thought.

If your future wife is not in the US now, she will apply directly at the consulate for her L-2 visa. There is no need for you or her to get prior approval from CIS, like you do for the L-1. Your question is unclear, so I don't know if this answers it.

Any suggestions ?

Our AP saga got its final miracle today. (at least I think it’s the final one…) Though my spouse’s and daughter's AP were finally got approved yesterday, the miracle is that TSC has decided to expedite and overnight them, based on a fax from my father-in-law’s doctor.
The very nice lady IO at SF INS office this morning asked for our telephone numbers, and then followed up and called us on our cell phone to confirm that TSC is expediting the APS…..…and overnight-ing them!
Prior to this last miracle the journey was choppy.
We are to leave for India on Dec 26th... ..the APs were e-filed on July 12 to give TSC enough time.
Because nothing seemed to be happening I faxed TSC director (no use), another fax at TSC (not much use), made friends with a TSC rep...(great) got in touch with my Congressman George MIller's office..(fantastic), leading to the approval yesterday and then today comes the icing on the cake… the overnight-ing….
After a season of dryness, it doesn't just rain, it pours!
write to the ombudsman. So much circus for an AP? When you applied 5 months ago!!
oh, and congrats on getting your AP in time for your travel plans.

I got EAD on February 2008 with my primary GC employer. My PD is just 4 months away and I got a job offer in a big company which I cannot afford to loose.
The the job duties in my new job remain the same but I am worried to change job during this time when PDs are jumping very fast. The max I can delay the joining my new employer cannot be more than a 1 month. Please suggest the best approach...

If the employer is the same and working remotely is an option, then why move from H1B to EAD. Why not keep the current status (full time) and work remote?

Sorry to read about your mother's problems. As the other posters have said, please do NOT use any agency, office, notario, or other service that claims to be able to help unless they are really attorneys or a charity. Be especially careful of notarios - these are not lawyers in the US.
Your mother would not be eligible for TPS unless she was in the US before Jan 12, 2010. Hopefully you are a US citizen and can petition for her permanent residence (green card)
