Hi,
My I-485 AOS thru my Husband's I-140 is pending right now.
Recently My sister's Approved I-130's priority date is Current, So now I Can file for AOS thru my Sister's I-130 also.
My question is :
Which is better Interfile or new filling ?
What are the advantages and dis-advantages of both ?
If I go for Interfiling and If My Application is not approved thur one track (I-130 / I-140) will my application be pending for another track ?
Thanks
Immqry

Gurus,
Please advice. THis is urgent. Here is my situation.
I worked for a very big technology company. My PERM is approved EB2 PD 03/07, I-140 approved, 485 pending since July2007. I have an EAD card that is valid until 07/2010. It was my company's policy to renew H1B even if I have an EAD card. An extension was applied in September 2008 for my H1B that expired on November 30,2008. Unfortunately, USCIS denied it in error because they said the filing fee was not correct. This was done in error by USCIS and the attorney hired by my company replied to me on December 30h saying that it will be corrected by them. Now on January 08th, 2009 after the H1B denial, my company informed me that i was being laid off with severence pay until April of 2009. Also, the HR person told me that they wont revoke I-140.
What are my options now?
Can i transfer H1B to a new company as i dont want to use my EAD and continue on H1B. If yes, how much time do i have?
Please please help. I am very tensed.

If you have a receipt as proof that an extension application was filed on your behalf before expiration of your H1 then you have 240 days starting from the day your visa expires before you should get an extension. You will be out of status if your case is not resolved in the 240 days deadline. I cannot comment on the implications of missing out on a deadline for responding to the RFE.

Hi,
Do we need to state the reason for canada visit as tourism or state the true objective (ie get a H1B Visa stamping)? My US F-1 visa has expired, so it would be obvious that I cannot return without a new US Visa?
Thanks

When i heard that little girls question (recorded version in NPR news this morning) and michelle's response of "well, i guess your mom should have 'proper' documents" sounds very interesting. Does she imply that she is not happy to face that question or does she say in a subtle manner that illegals should not be here ?
One more thing to note is that in Maryland, schools "do not" check legal status of children's parents during school admissions.but isn't that atleast an utility bill or rental contract is required as proof of residence? then in that case, how the systems are working here ?
On the other hand, one of my close friend ( 11th year in this country with H1B extension in pending) can not get a driver license despite the fact he is a tax payer, his status is absolutely legal, bought a home few years back, working for a real company, but just can not get his driver's license in Missouri.
What a shame?
In an extraordinary exchange at an event that is usually just a photo op, First Lady Michelle Obama fielded a question from a second grader that really reminds us of the fact that the millions of people in the US working without status today are real people with real families. While the antis choose to dehumanize these folks by portraying them as criminals and parasites, this little girl reminds us that we're talking about people who are faced with terrible choices in life - living in utter poverty in an unstable homeland or living in the shadows in a wealthy...

Hi!
I entered the U.S. on an F1 visa on March 9th 2007, and have continued to study in the U.S. as of now.
I pay "Out-of-state" tuition to California State University, but I would like to know if there was anything I could do to become a legal resident of California to apply for In-state tuition.
It's not that I am trying to get a way out of the system, but in reality I want to become a U.S. resident which is one of my goals, just popping up in here to see if there's anything I can do in the meantime.
I have researched in Texas University, if I apply for a VISA, while it is processing I can pay IN-State tuition
Q. How do I establish residency?
A. One must be an independent (not claimed as a dependent for income tax purposes), US citizen or permanent resident, (have a green card, also known as card I-551 or the evidence of I-551 stamp in the passport) or international student who is eligible to establish a domicile in Texas and live in the state of Texas for 12 consecutive months and establish a domicile in Texas prior to enrollment.

Thank you for all your help! - Remember I am in CALIFORNIA not TX.

Sorry to hear that you waited for 2 years due to name check.
This is a very big hell hole for people when they apply for 485.
90% people who apply for 485 are lucky to not face this.
There are just so many issues we face in our immigration process and cause us pain. Our efforts in the upcoming immigration debate will help this issue. There are provisions like doing the entire 485 processing within 6 months we need to protect. Please join us and support us so that we can all get rid of our immigration sufferings.

Can anyone please recommend a lawyer in Delhi for filling and helping in the I-824 or councillor processing for my Wife.
I am looking for a lawyer , who has office in both Delhi and in USA , so they can take care of the complete process.
I.e filing I-824 in USA and helping in india to prepare for the interview
If not in delhi , then please recommend any where in India :)
Also any idea , how much would it cost.
Thanks in advance
It is Consular Processing
Is it EB based?
Sheela Murthy has office in Chennai. But if you ask me you do not need attorney.
Otherwise you can get an attorney here. Most of the paper work is done here. All you need to do is to take packet for the interview.

It looks to me like they made a mistake on the valid dates for the new EAD. That happened to me last year, I received my new EAD card and it was only good for 1.5 months.
I had to mail them the card and after a couple of calls and some headaches they sent me a new EAD card, this time valid for 2 years.
Good luck!

Priority date - May 2007

Waiting for date to be current to file I485 and my current company is ready to continue the GC process even if I transfer my H1 to another company.
Your expert advise will really be a help for me to take decision on this , is it wise to change h1 now?

Dear Friends,
First of all, I'm really thankful to immigrationvoice.com to create such a lovely community.
My question and your advice
I'm currently working in Company A, My first 3 years visa is going to get expire on SEP-2009.
My current company has some issues, so If I apply my extension through my company I won't get my extension for sure.
So I contacted Company B , and applied for my H1 Transfer, they filed my H1 Transfer on 04/10/2009 through normal processing. I would like to know whether I need to switch from Normal processing to Premium Processing. If yes, then what's the procedure. I really appreciate all your time and efforts in answering my questions.
Thanks :)
