A friend of mine just told me that USCIS has issued "guidance" a couple of weeks ago that allows using the EAD and at the same time "preserving" the alien's H1B status.
I can't find the document, but he swears that he read it..

I have a curious situation. I have filed EB3-485 as a secondary applicant to my wife. I am currently in a job where I can't file a green card ( this is my 5th year of H1b). My understanding is one can't have a seventh year extension for H1b unless his I-140 is approved.
Should I consider changing the job and filing another GC by myself. I know I can continue renewing EAD but I still want to keep my H1b
Thanks
Just apply for labor and once the labor is approved apply for I140 (Apply in premium if USCIS starts accepting premium by the time your labor is approved). If premium is not started by the time your labor is approved then apply I140 in regular and wait for premium to start. you can change your I140 Application to premium even though you filed it in regular processing originally.
Who knows you might get the I140 approval in regular processing also before your 6 years is complete.
just do what you can

U.S. Department of Labor has implemented a new integrated online system � known as the iCert Portal � through which employers can submit applications for permanent labor certification, labor condition applications (LCAs) and other applications for immigration-related DOL programs. In addition, the agency will introduce new editions of Form ETA-9089, the PERM labor certification application, and have already introduced Form ETA-9035, the labor condition application. iCert has already replaced the method of LCA filing for H-1B. The new iCert system begins to accept LCAs as of July 1, 2009. Employer and attorneys as the case may be, can still use the old LCA account but cannot submit new LCA. New LCA has to be filed from iCert.
Following are the new changes which has taken place:
- The new LCA requires writing the SOC (ONET/OES) code and the occupation title for the job.
- The new LCA has a section for basis for the visa classification supported by the application. There are the following categories:
a. New employment;
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.
- One has to indicate the total number of H-1B/H-1B1 (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) non-immigrant workers.
- The new LCA also requires, in the employer information section, to indicate the Trade name/doing business as (DBA), if applicable, the old LCA does not have this requirement.
- In the new LCA, one is required to write NAICS code.
- There is a new section in the new LCA - Employer point of contact information, which requires to indicate the following: full contact�s name; contact�s job; contact�s address; contact�s telephone number; contact�s e-mail address.

Although pani_6 is correct in what he is saying.
Here is the link:

I guess, this may not be an as important an issue as "getting the GC"..:p
But some people may care more about it than others...especially who have a long list of family members to be brought in :)

I thought he died because Bush wouldn't authorize embryonic stem cell research. Anyway he is an intergalactic illegal immigrant from Krypton.
technically he got birthright citizenship through the orphanage! but the double taxation was too much
"It’s refreshing to see an alien refugee tell the United States that it’s as important to him as any other country on Earth — which in turn is as important to Superman as any other planet in the multiverse."
Especially the zero tax countries...
Previously Superman never had to pay taxes, but now with the record defecit, he's being proactive with his portfolio

Can the attorney file an I140 for a candidate while the candidate is out of USA? Or does the candidate have to be physically present for the I140 to be filed. In addition does the candidate need to be here for the entire processing time for I140 or can he go on vacation ?
This question is pretty urgent :)
Thanks in advance

Hi,
This is my first post here. I was looking for "Experience Letter Format" that Is needed for filing I-140. I have not started my GC yet but was looking for all the documents required. It seems to be a nice idea to get all the experience letters from the previous employers before starting labor process.
If some one has the format currently required by USCIS, please post it.
Thanks

my PD : 12-aug-2009
ON 23-dec-2009 case has been approved , based on the Visa Bulletin currently the are processing visas for F2A with priority date before 1- JUN i think soon " within 2 month " it will become current and thus all unused visa numbers will transfer to F2B ( spilover ) if this happen i assume i will get my paper and interiview within 2011 .
AM I RIGHT ?????

Hi,
I recently traveled to Canada by land for 1 week . When I went to Canada the canadian authorities did not take my I 94. When I returned from canada, the US officials did not give me a new I 94, will this be a problem ?
Thank you for your time.

Hi
Thanks for your reply.
See according to the consulate, they say the following
passport or travel document valid for at least three months after visa expiry date
In this case, they mean the schengen visa expiration date. For example, if I am travelling from April 1 to April 20th, they will give me visa only upto April 20th. They want my AP to have expiration atleast 3 months from April 20th (which will be July 20th) but my AP is expiring on April 10th.
Thanks for your reply.

saileshdude, what are your details like PD, Service Center, RD, ND etc?
I called NSC, but not info other than pending status.
Excited & Tensed !!
Between, what is G-28 ?
I had a soft LUD on my+spouse 485 application today. I am current for this sept but will not be in Oct. Since there are no visa numbers available, I am guessing this must be either a potential RFE or my previous company lawyers may have withdrawn my G-28 representation
Does anyone know if before an RFE , would they or did they get a SOFT LUD, is this common?
Also if my previous attorney withdrew G-28 forms, will this also result in soft lud?

We are very busy these days trying to beat the H1B (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) rush. While we fell that visas will not run out on April 1, 2010, clients are anxious to get their cases out the door. We promise to deliver.
Here are some tips that may help our last minute filers. The issue today is a degree that has not yet been awarded. In the past, the USCIS has approved H-1B petitions (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html)for aliens seeking one of the 20,000 H-1B visas available to aliens who have earned master�s or higher degrees from U.S. institutions of higher education, where the alien has completed all requirements for the degree, and hence, has �earned� the degree, but the degree has not been conferred.
There is no reason to believe that USCIS will not continue that practice, so long as there is evidence that the alien has completed all requirements from an official at the educational institution qualified to provide that information. In the past, satisfactory evidence often was in the form of a letter from an official such as a Dean, Registrar, or department head, stating that all requirements have been satisfied and that the alien is simply waiting for the ceremonial conferral of the degree.
Be wary of letters prepared by unauthorized employees at the school stating that the student has completed all requirements toward a master�s degree, when in fact there are still examinations or papers to complete. USCIS is likely to question a letter that comes from a lower-level employee of the university. Be mindful also that use of such documentation when the student has not completed the program may be considered fraud. Also, use of such a document may result in the loss of the client�s chance at a slot in the U.S. master�s graduate quota since the petition likely would be denied on the basis of ineligibility at the time of filing.
More tips in later posts, good luck filing the H1's tomorrow.

Hi,
I have a master's degree from a top US university but my current employer applied my GC in the EB3 category. I am planning to move to a different company which is willing to apply in the EB2 category. I have an approved 1-140 with the current employer and my I-485 was sent in July/August. Here are the steps I think I should take after moving to the new company:
1) After I move to the new company, I can send AC-21 and continue my GC in the Eb3 category.
2) File a new LC. Send new I-140 in EB2 asking them to use the old PD from the approved EB3 category.
My question is
1) Will I run into any issues for my EB3 because the new I-140 is in EB2? I dont want to jeopardise my EB3 application.
2) Should I not send AC21 if I am planning to switch to EB2 category. My current employer does not revoke I140 even after I move to the new company (anyway, I am doing this after 180 days of I-485).
Any input is appreciated.
