Hi
My company is using substituted labor for me and applying for 140 and 485. My original LC which was pending just got approved. But the physical documentation is not there.
But my company is saying that they will also apply for 140 for the original LC also. How is this possible? I'm confused. What will happen to the 485 (and the first 140) when they file second 140?
Thanks
Please be careful. some days back some of my friends caught up with this substitute LC and lost money. Please be careful before investing any kind of money esp if it is for desi body shoppers. USCIS is taking strict major and many substitute LC are getting rejected. so be cautious

What I don't understand is why you are filing another I-140 when you already filed I-485? In any case you can use AC21 only after your 485 has been pending for more than 180 days.
Employer A with EB3 PD Feb2003 and I 485 filed
Same Employer A is doing EB2 PERM with I 140 PD porting
Is it possible to invoke AC21 in middle of process??
1. is it possible to use AC21 after 140 approval??, any time constraints?
2. what about between 140 filing and 140 approval?
3. at what stage it is not safe?
any advice please

It would be not hard to make an IV facebook application that contains
- an install page,
- a page where our core issues can be listed and members can express support for each issue
- a page where running issues can be listed and members can sign petitions online (see capital fraternal caucus app as they push their greek related issues via Patton Boggs in Washington)
- and optionally a facebook bolstered discussion board.
The newsfeed feature/invite friends should help viral spread of the app.
A member suggested that it maybe a good idea to have IV presence on facebook. This will help increase our publicity among our friends whom we can recommend to join. Our aim is to get as much publicity and membership at this time so that we can succeed in our upcoming campaigns.
We have a group called 'Immigration Voice' on Facebook now started by IV core.
Could you now help us increase the publicity of IV on facebook among your friends so that we get more participation on IV site
Someone who knows facebook well, pls post ideas how we can use it best to our advantage.

This question is implying that the stay for the children to go to school in canada would only be a month or so, not more than six months - so does anyone know if there's a risk in messing up the green cards while the family waits a month in canada while waiting for the next destination.

We recently assisted a client from Johannesburg, South Africa, regarding an H-1B specialty occupation visa. He was approved for an H-1B visa, but in order for our client to enter the United States, he must obtain an H-1B visa in his passport. Because the chances of visa issuance vary greatly depending on documentation and individual circumstances, we suggested that he go to the interview at the U.S. consulate very well prepared. We told him to take a certified copy of his entire H-1B package that was filed with the Immigration Service, along with his Form I-797 Approval Notice. We also suggested that he take original birth certificates, marriage certificate, and proof of financial support. He attended the interview this morning and his experience at the U.S. consulate in Johannesburg, South Africa was documented as follows.
“My wife, myself and our son had our interview at the U.S. Consulate here in Johannesburg this morning, at 9:00am. We duly arrived at 8:30am, had our relevant DS documents checked at the door, took a number, and waited for the “call.” At promptly 9:00am we were called to a booth, where our fingerprints were taken, the DS forms checked with the original I-797 form, and then told to go and sit down again. 10 minutes later, we went back to the booth, had our fingerprints taken again, and that was it. All visas approved, and to pay DHL the delivery costs. No questions asked, no documents asked for, no requirement of proof of copies of documents, nothing. All in all a painless and easy task.”

1. Can he own a coroporation while his status on OPT? I know one can own a corporation if his/her status is on H1B.
Yes
2. If he own corporation with his current status (OPT) and if he files his H1B in year 2010; what issue might he face?
If the H1B is filled by his company it will be rejected. If it is filled by another company then there are no issues.
3. Are there any legal obligations to own a corporation while his status on OPT? Or does he require to take any extra measures / precautions to own this coporation?
Yes, just make sure that you file all forms and pay all taxes :( even if you are not in US.
Note: He just wants own this company and not plan to do anything much to it until he settles down and he wanted utilize this oppertunity.

I used my 485 EAD, which I received when I filed my 485 with my spouse. And now I want my employer to apply H-1B for me. I am wondering if I can apply change of status to H-1B within US or I have to apply H-1B petition, which requires me to get out of US and get the visa at some US consulate or embassy.
I'd really appreciate any info.
Thanks a lot.

If your name is coorect in EAD, then you should go to SSN office and
explain them , and if required re apply. You will get it changed. Remember SSN is going to be stuck to your lifetime. Hence better do the correct thing.

My friend filed on July 24 and just got his receipts.. His receipt date is 7/17. Seems all late July/Early Aug filers under July bulletin will have RD of 7/17...
Any one to confirm or deny this... This pattern seems logical as visa bulletin was revived on 7/17 and most of the folks can't file for the 2 weeks during fiasco...

harry the reason u may not be getting much of a response to your thread might be because the AC21 portability issues have been discussed in detail several hundred times on this forum.
Just look for the AC21 Portability forums/threads and read thru them and it'll help your understanding.

I have a question on the receipt number. If we get the receipt number, does it mean "The application is accepted" (All the supporting documentation and fee are coorect)?
or
Are there any cases where receipt numbers is issued though the supporting documentation / fee is not correct?

Gentlemen,
I had a quick question with EAD I understand that I can switch job after 180 days as long as there is 50% match in job description. However my companiy's legal coordiantor send me a weird query that she cannot find the job in hard to fill category. So my question is Does the job I am applying for using my EAD has to be hard to fill as in case of H1 or the only requirement is that the job description should match 50% with the underlying LC.
Thanks for your answers.

I have couple of questions regarding timeperiod for which I can stay outside US while my I-485 is pending . I had to undergo a re-do surgery of my back in India and was adviced complete bed rest till it heals due to which I am outside US since Jan ending till date
1) Will it effect my GC application as some say its not good to stay more than 180 days outside US continously.
2) I am on H1 status will it be a issue at POE to have gone for this long
3) What docs should I be carrying to awnser questions at POE.Is client letter mandatory or continued employment letter and I797 good
Kindly let me know your advice in this case

Hello Freinds,
I came to India on a vacation and went for a H1 stamping on 29th Dec at the Chennai consulate. I ended up getting the famous Pink 221G (Additional Admin Processing - AAP). I believe it is because of my muslim name (I am not a consultant or working for any consulting firm, full time employee with my comp's IT department, work for a reputed manufacturing company and done MS here in USA, been in USA for 9 years now, had previous F1, and H1 stampings).
The VO asked very basic questions (who is the employer, what they do, where did you go to school, what majors) and didn't take any of my documents except the D156, D157 & Employee letter. She said my visa is approved, however I will have to go through AAP and will have to wait for 4 to 12 weeks.
I am planning to wait till the end of January and if nothing moves ahead in my case, then go back to USA on Advance Parole (Based on the experience from other members who were stuck in 221G and who travelled back on AP), and come back to India once the 221G is cleared, and the consulate requests to send Passport.
One of my personal concerns about this approach, does the consulate consider my visa applicaton abondoned if they find out that I have already entered US (using AP)? and will it have any issues in the future with my pending AOS?
Has anyone gone through this similar situation (that they travelled on AP while H1 is in 221G status) and got successful stamping after the consulate has requested to send the Passport.
Anyone please share your experience in the above situation........
Also if am returning to USA on AP, do I have to show the I797, so the Immigration officer puts the expiration date on the I94 as the date on the I797
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

some where i read in the forum if we leave the country without the approval of ap our 485 status will be abonded.
If you leave the country after getting your I-485 receipts then its okay whether you get your Advance Parole papers or not since you are going for H1 stamping and are not going to use AP anyway.
It does not matter. Some people do not even file for AP if they are going to use their H1 visa to re-enter the country.
But remember your I-485 receipt is very important. Always keep it handy ( do not leave without it ):)

Hi
we applied ap in octoer and we got receipt on oct 24th but we found a typo error on my daughters receipt instead of 'ekthasruthi sakala' it was ektha sakala' will it be a problem at the port of entry . please suggest me.
The name on the AP should match with passport. Make sure your 131 form has a correct name, if yes then you can reapply for a AP without a filing fee otherwise you have to pay. BTW, check all your receipts whether it has a correct name
