People do not agree and have different ideas - sometimes to the point of personal hurt! - this is natural. They have different interests and even when they have shared goals, sometimes their paths to those shared goals may diverge - this is natural, too. Yes, differences, discussion and divergence can lead to a final separation and then two or mroe new groups are born - and it can happen naturally and it does not have to be rushed or forced through censorship and persecution. But sometimes debates and differences actually help the whole group to stay together and find a better path or a better solution - in the heat of the discussion and in the fight of the dualling arguments a new idea, approach or solution is born. I do think that a lot of the most contentious discussions on this forum are actually the most important and interesting ones because those are the oens that will cut to the heart of the problem and reveal the real depths of the issues. Suppression of diverging opinions is the hallmark of dictatorships.
I agree with you and its good in many situations, but i think unfortunately this does not apply here... if we are not united and don't march together towards our ultimate goal... it will only make us look disorganized and we will come across as a bunch of self centered highly educated fools who don't care about the big picture.
For those who dont agree with what IV is doing, no one's forcing them to follow what IV does and certainly no ones forcing them to be here, but if you are here then you should at least trust the organization in what they do.
If you have ideas talk to the core and discuss with them in person or call them... i m sure they will be glad to take it up if the idea benefits everyone and not just me or you... breaking off driving folks in different direction is not the solution, it will snow ball into a big problem.

I am in a similar situation too. Getting married in August. Planning to file my I-485 in July and get my spouse here on H4 visa in the first week of September. It seems (from some comments in this forum as well as elsewhere) that the dates may not retrogress for August, but there is a very real chance they will retrogress for September.
You can "add" your spouse to the I-485 (note that technically it's not "adding", but filing an entirely new I-485 for your spouse) anytime before your GC gets approved (and after you get your I-485 filing receipt), provided the priority date is still current at the time of filing. But with the possibility of a big retrogression looming, this could be a long wait for some people.

Hi Guys,
I need your help on this. My cousin is running this small IT company in india and he mentioned that when US client sends their money to India via Pay Pal or some secure money transfer , they are charging them 4 % of transfer amount.
He ask me that what could be the best way to avoid this fees , some of the option that we thought about,
1) If they (cousin's company) open an bank account in USA and utilize this to transfer the money to indian bank account - Would they still need to pay US tax as money is being deposited into the US account?
2) If I utlize my bank account - I think in this scenarion I have to pay the US tax for whatever money the client is depositing into my account in order to make this legal transfer
3)If US client utilize remit2india, ICICI to transfer money which I highly doubt
I appriciate your responce on this.
lol you are complaining about 4% tax? :)
1. not sure about this...normally you need a SSN or TaxID to open a back account here...however some banks dont require it...which is what illegal immigrants exploit.
so if its done without a SSN or TAXID then you may get away without paying tax.
However some companies wont pay you if you dont have a TaXID or SSN
2. worst of the 3 ideas...cause u will be paying individual tax rate...of around 30% or more

Hi poorslumdogs,
If you refer to some thread, please do not ask others to search for it. Instead paste its link in your post so others can read it.
I heard from my friends there are no legal implications if you get laid off on EAD and you also have a valid parolee document.
This should get verified from an attorney though, specially if others create a doubt.
[QUOTE=.....That thread was created in the last 2-3 months time. So search for it.
There is definitely some legal implication otherwise why your employer wants to inform USCIS. They wanted to be in the safer side. So if anything happens you are the one going to face the music. So check with some good attorney.[/QUOTE]

please don't post information you are not sure of. unless employer withdraws H1 there is no way USCIS can know of this. (Employers are not legally bound to file for H1 withdrawal) Also I would like to know the source of your 'zero tolerance' policy in regards to H1. In fact they forgive upto 6 months of 'unauthorized' employment when processing I-485. (http://www.murthy.com/news/n_nscuna.html). If they wanted to have 'zero tolerance' they would have forced employers to withdraw H1 or atleast inform USCIS of layoff.
Also you say "one should inform USCIS before I-485 is approved'. Again this is wrong information.
Please do not start fear mongering based on incomplete information.
This is not fear mongering. You DO NOT have a grace period for H1B termination as you do on F1-OPT or anything similar.
The right way to stay in H1 status is to get a transfer BEFORE the termination date on your H1B.
In reality however, USCIS may not look at it from a zero tolerance policy while ACTUALLY adjudicating the case. They may approve the transfer if the paystubs are "RECENT" enough or may send an RFE. The usual criteria for recent is two weeks or sometimes upto a month. Anything longer is at your own risk.
The 6 month period hoolahous refers to in the link is for "UNAUTHORIZED EMPLOYMENT" meaning working for an employer other than your H1b sponsoring entity usually the H1B petition is still valid. I believe that is not the case here.
If you would like to stay on H1 status, my suggestion would be to apply for a transfer with another employer before the end date of your current job.
If that does not work, you always have the option of using EAD to get another job, but in the meantime your status should be fine as you have filed for your 485 and you will be in AOS.
As always, check with an attorney for your specific situation and use your best judgement.
Good Luck!

Thanks for the reply... I was curious. I will be patient and look out for new postings on this topic.
I wish others (who do not) understand , that they know it is not yet law and there is work that needs to be done.
And I wish all other members who have not contributed .. contribute soon, as that is the most visible request from IV to members today. And I believe these contributions will go towards acchiving our dreams.

Go Savage......
I would choose my "bedfellows" cautiously.
Once CIR has collapsed, he'll re-aim. Remember: Most of the "Right Wing" are looking for scape goats right now. The neo-conservatives' policies have failed demonstratively for the average, joe-sixpack American since the Clinton years and if they don't find some group to blame, they'll have to blame themselves. (Nobody wants to blame themselves) Savage represents the neo-conservatives.
If he is a bigot (as many right wing talk show hosts are) then he will easily be bigoted against us.

I did not understand the "time of filing I-485 (that means that visa is immediately available) minus time that I-140 was pending with USCIS" part.
My situation is as follows - My I-140 is approved and judging by the current situation my child will be above 21years (currently on H4) when visa becomes available.
My questions are - Will I be able to extend my child's H4 beyond his 21 years, assuming I continue on H1? And will I be able to adjust my child's status when visa becomes available?
ThanksShort answer No. Long answer: it depends on when you will apply for 485. For example: you filed I-140 on Jan 1-st 2006, it was approved on Jan 1-st 2007, so it was pending for 365 days. You are applying for 485 when you child is 21 years and 364 days old - he is covered by CPA (Child protection act) and can file 485 as your dependent. One day later - he is not covered and could not file 485.
Hope it helps.

You can file as many I-140's in any category (EB2/EB3/NIW) as long as you have a certified labor for a bona fide position with a matching education and company has ability to pay for those positions. These I-140's can come from one company or different ones it doesn't matter.
In your current situation:
1. Don't even think about doing anything with pending I-140 and AOS. There is a definite delay in I-140 approvals at both NSC/TSC so waiting is the best thing to do. As long as your qualification matches the LC description you will get your I-140 approved. If your I-140 is pending 30 days past the processing time and you haven't received an RFE, it might have been stuck in security check. Your lawyer needs to open a service request to find out what is going on.
2. For the labor that is expiring in Jan, go ahead and file an I-140 petition right now, there is nothing to worry about two I-140. If nothing else this petition can be used for 3 year H1B extension in case the first one gets stuck.
3. The second I-140 that you are filing can't be used for your pending AOS if your priority date is not current. Check the Pearson Interfiling memo ( from link below). If your priority dates are current and will remain current (EB2 ROW) file for an new AOS application when your second I-140 gets approved. If by this time your first I-140 is approved you can simply toss the second I-140 in the office shredder.

Thanks for your responses guys. Now I understand that once I withdraw my old I-140, my I-485 is gone.
Reg my question 2, I know that people file 1 in EB3 and second in EB2. Or after one is approved file another one with earlier PD LC. But, is it possible to apply for second I-140 in the same category (EB3) when another one is already pending? Have any one done this before?. Could you guys point me to some links?
I asked this question to my lawyer. No response yet. I would really appreciate your response.

I agree with you. Why we don`t explore this option ???? USCIS make so many rule by itself then why they don`t make this rule to file 485 while PD is not current without going in Senate. Like they start premium processing of I-140. They make this rule without any bill in US Senate. correct me if I am wrong
I think, core team should look this option or ask us to find more information about it. I think, core team can meet with high official from USCIS.
what do you guys think about it ??

gc_chahiye,
Thanks for your suggestions.I checked with my Lawyer about the job title .she says job responsibilities matter in this case.Job title is for any company's internal designation it seems.
I don't know exactly what AC 21 regulations are.I just want to follow any best Lawyer's advice in this matter.
The term Technical Recruiter is very generic This job can be done by any person who doesn't have any technical background .But If a person with good technical skills will bring more value to the company.
The area which i'm focussing is basically IT Sales.Company which is offering me this Technical recruiter position is impressed with my technical back ground and hiring me.They are actually looking for some one who is very senior and having good amount of experience with Technical back ground specially ERP Packages.The role is also not confined to just recruiting but meeting the clients and bidding the tech support and new impementations for the company.
I personally see lot of career growth in this path.But unfortunately there is nothing one can do in this matter.
Thanks,
h12gc
I am little more confused now: even if we ignore the title for a moment, none of the duties you have described:
- hiring software engineers
- bidding on tech support and new implementations
- meeting clients to bring in new business
seem to be inline with that of a software engineer...
I would be uncomfortable about this, but if you believe your lawyer can prove the job duties are substantially similar to that a software engineer in case of an RFE (again going by the O*NET codes as thats what USCIS looks at) you can take a chance.
Atleast get a second opinion from another, good attorney before you decide anything. The market is in general good, and there are lots of jobs around, dont lose years of your waiting time because of one lawyers interpretation of the rules just for the sake of this position.

Please share your experience with us when done.
Mine is already done last month. You may have to wait there for couple of hours if you go on weekend. But once your number comes, it will be very fast.
It takes
20 minutes - 1.5 hours - Waiting time
5 minutes for physical checkup
2 minutes for shots
1 minute for blood work and PPD
2 minutes to pay initial fee
48-72 hours for PPD results ( Since labs are very very busy, they may take upto 4 days to send them blood work report)
After 48-72 hours
30-40 minutes wait to show your ppd result
1 minute - Dr to see PPD result
10 minutes - for xray if ppd positive
5 minutes - other shots if your blood report says so
5-10 minutes - for dr to read x-ray
2 minutes to pay for remaining fees
30 minutes - wait to get your sealed envelop ( otherwise go next day)

Were you rejected for EB2 because yours was not equal to US Masters or because you didnt have 5 years after yours bachelors degree? I guess you are aware that the experience you gain with your employer who filed your GC cannot be included in the 5 years. I think you have a fair chance if you only have to be equivalent to US Bachelors degree.

I have a question regarding use of EAD and living in Canada
My scenario
Currrently, I work on H1-B and am living in Canada (I cross US-Canada border everyday)
I am also a Canadian Citizen and used that to cross border everyday. So, far I never used the EAD
I recently got laid off, and planing on using my EAD for my next employment.
Questions
Once I start using the EAD, can I still live in Canada and work in US.
Is it necessary to live in US if one starts using EAD?

Basically to retain the PD you should have the copy of the I-140 approved and you could retain the PD. Having said that, different lawyers have different interpretations when you switch jobs and retain the PD. Basicallly some lawyers say you could retain the PD even if your old employer uses it for another person after revoking yours, while others say you can't retain PD if your old employer revokes your I-140. However if your old employer willn't revoke your I-140 then you could definetely port your PD with your new employer. If you employer is hesitant to give, you could try asking him other ways if possible for H1B stamping etc.
If a person has a copy of 140 approval, can he/she port the PD even
if the employer revoke it?
thanks
