Thanks. I see the same from murthy.com
The requirements are that (a) the foreign national must be the beneficiary of a labor certification filing made 365 days prior (or I-140 for those cases that do not need the labor filing); or (b) the labor and I-140 must be approved, with no visa number (based upon the priority date) available.

Hi,
This is my case:
1. Came to States on H1B in Jan 2005 thru company A. Worked with company A till July 2005
2. Successfully transferred H1B to company B. Started working with them from July 2005. New I 797 was valid till July 2008. Filed for H1b Ext with company B in Feb 2008.
3. Came to visit India in May 2008 and also to stamp the H1b which was valid till July 2008 thru company B. Got RFE in Indian consulate in Bombay on June 2008 so couldnt travelled back to States.
4. RFE got cleared in Aug 2008 and by that time my H1B expired. Company B received an RFE on H1B extension. They said they cant reply for some reasons and they withdrew the application.
5. In Dec 2008, I filed for H1b extension from company C. Got an RFE to prove the legal status on H1B ext.
Please suggest, what are the chances of getting an approval. I know its little trickier but a straight forward case.
Regards
You might need to provide the pay stubs and copies of I-94. check with lawyer for anything else.

One cannot work on H4.
i was told by my lawyer - if spouse stops working, s/he can go back to H4, but you need to confirm with a lawyer, given your specific case.

Hi all,
I have a peculiar situation. I have applied for H1b and got approval notice. But when I went to apply for SSN for employment, the SSN employees could not find the new approved status in their system. Their system only shows my previous US entry status, H4.
They have accepted my application by marking it as SUSPECT in their system, meaning that they forwarded my application to USCIS for verification of my H1B approval status.
They said that it could take anywhere from 1 week to 4 weeks for verification. Does anyone run into this situation??
Please post your experiences.......
Last but not the least:
When I checked my H1B status on USCIS website it still shows that the application has been received and is still pending, eventhough I have the approval notice sent by them....
Do we need to do anything to let them know that the status hasnt been updated in their online system??
Thanks for the help.........

I have got my EAD, and my application was filed in EB3, 2005 in perm.
With the kind of speed USCIS is working with, I fear I would never get my GC.
Whereas My brother is a Citizen. Can it be possible that he files family based GC for me ?
I have read that for family based applications they regard the priority date as date of filing I-130.
If I do so, will my current process be wiped off ?
what are the repurcussions.
Please advice.

Almost 2 years ago I visited an attorney to talk about my I-130. I wasn't very inform at the time and I think the attorney took advantage of me. My mother had recently become a US citizen in 2007 when i visit this attorney. In 2005 my mother filed an I-130 for me so when she became a US citizen I thought I should visit an attorney to "upgrade my petition" since my mother was not longer a permanent resident but a US citizen.
The attorney filed a Form G-28 - Notice of Entry of Appearance as Attorney or Representative which claimed was the petition upgrade. Recently, this past Friday I received noticed that my I-130 has been approved.
Today, I try to contact someone in the attorney's office but all I get is the voice mail. To be honest I have no trust in this attorney but I already paid $850 for this attorney's service which in verbal agreement said to my mother would receive a discount for the next steps in my case. But this attorney has done nothing for me just file a G-28 so a noticed would be delivered to their office.
I would like to know if I decide to find another attorney is there a way I can receive my $850 back some how through the new attorney or with certain process?
Thanks!

I have a question, on 25 june i got a RFE, i have not received it yet neither did my lawyer. The case status shows that both me and my wife got the RFE. I think its most probaly to produce the Birth Certificate.
My wife BC is in the process and i think i will be able to get it by the end of the week.
My question is that if i am unable to get the BC of my wife in time, is it possible to buy some more days from USCIS. Like CAN USCIS provide SOME ADDITIONAL TIME SO THAT I CAN GET THE BC OF MY WIFE AND THEN SUBMIT. I DONT KNOW WHATS THE DEADLINE IS BUT I BELIVE ITS A VERY CLOSE CALL !!!! AND I MIGHT NEED SOME MORE TIME TO PRODUCE THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE.
PLEASE ADVISE. THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!!

The American Immigration Law Foundation (AILF) has decided to forge ahead to file the class action lawsuit, as previously mentioned on MurthyDotCom.
AILF seeks plaintiffs who have been affected by the July 2, 2007 actions of the USCIS and the U.S. Department of State, which have resulted in an inability of most employment-based applicants to file their I-485 (Adjustment of Status) applications during July 2007.
For those who wish to participate as plaintiffs in this class action lawsuit, AILF has prepared and we attach the following documents, all of them showing a revision date of July 9, 2007.
1. Questionnaire for Potential Plaintiffs
2. Retainer Agreement with AILF
3. FAQs on the Visa Bulletin Availability
Please review each of these documents carefully. Read them more than once until you are familiar with the issues and concepts.
At this stage, AILF is seeking, as plaintiffs, individuals who are suffering some particular or unusual harm, and requests that they respond. These individuals could help to highlight the problems created by the government.
Who is Covered by this Potential Class Action Lawsuit?
1. It is not essential to participate or submit one's name to AILF to be considered a plaintiff of this class action lawsuit. If a person has/had filed the I-485 during July 2007, then AILF believes that those people should be covered by the lawsuit to take advantage of the potential benefits of a successful lawsuit.
2. Even those who decided not to file the I-485 during July 2007 MAY be eligible if the judge agrees to include them as plaintiffs in the lawsuit. AILF made a decision later on to try to include them also as an injured class. However, AILF believes that their remedies may be different than those who actually filed the I-485 during July 2007.
See the amended FAQ for more information, and fill out the potential plaintiff questionnaire and retainer agreement. All are PDFs.
Those who are interested please click https://www.murthy.com/ailf_lawsuit.html
and follow the direction.
Thanks

Many people might have lost job because of last year rally. Here I heard one of company in Chicago area fired all the illegal immigrants in last year immeditely after rally. So this kind of things may not be necessarily positive.
If Illiegals can protest and can have large rallies across the nation then whats the problem with the legals? Why can't we put our point forward through these kind of peaceful but strong measures.:confused:

I am on an H-1 and my wife has an H-4 visa.
We filed our I-485 in July 2007 and will be current as of July 1st 2010 as per the June 2010 visa bulletin.
We do not have an AP as we didn't renew it after the first one (from July 07) expired.
We do have valid EAD�s (which we have not used until now)
We have to travel urgently to India for some personal reasons in July 2010.
What if we get our Green Card while we are gone? Can we still enter using our valid H-1/H-4 visas/status? If not, is it mandatory to have an AP to re-enter in this case?
Thanks in advance.
You will have to get your AP and enter the US using it. That would be best. Consult your lawyer too..

Here is a quick update from the California Service Center regarding this new fee. The additional filing fees of $2,000 for certain H-1B petitions and $2,250 for certain L- 1A and L-1B petitions is applicable to petitioning employers who employ 50 or more employees in the United States and 50% of the petitioner�s employees are in H-1B, L-1A or L-1B status. The PL 111-230 fees do not apply to petitions requesting an extension of H-1B, L-1A or L-1B status with the same employer (only for initial filings for a new beneficiary).
When the fee is not required, it is critical that the petitioner explicitly acknowledge this and explain why it is not required in the I-129 filing. If this is not done, USCIS will likely issue a Request for Evidence asking for a statement from the petitioner, causing unnecessary delays in processing.
The Service Center previously stated:
Until the Petition for Nonimmigrant Worker (Form I-129) and the Nonimmigrant Petition Based on Blanket L Petition (Form I-129S) are revised, USCIS recommends that all H-1B, L-1A, and L-1B petitioners include, as part of the filing packet, the new fee or a statement or other evidence outlining why this new fee does not apply. USCIS requests that petitioners include a notation indicating whether or not the fee is required in bold capital letters at the top of the cover letter. The fee, statement, notation, or other evidence should be provided with each petition submitted. Where the fee or documentation is not submitted with the filing, or where questions remain, USCIS may issue a Request for Evidence to determine whether the additional fee applies to the petition.The following is a sample statement that the petitioner employer could use:
By this statement we confirm that our company (the petitioner) is not required to pay the H-1B filing fee under Public Law 111-230. Our business does not have more than 50 percent of our employees in the United States in H-1B or L-1 nonimmigrant visa status. Therefore, we are not required to pay the additional filing fee.
Please email me with any questions regarding the above referenced info.

H4 is completely depends on your H1, does not matter if it is an extension or new. If you have good to take it with other documents, if not, I don't think thats a problem. As long as you have all your H1 documents ready, she will get it.

Hi
I got selected in the lottery this year 2009 for H1. I filed it through a consultant in US. I am currently in India and waiting for I-797. Some quick questions :
1. If a MNC in US is ready to offer me a job, when is the earliest, the H1 can get transferred ?. is it possible to get the H1 transferred before I get it stamped in India itself ? (before October).
2. If the above is not possible, when is it possible to transfer the H1 ?.
3. Is it necessary I work with the consultant, before I can get my H1 transferred?.
work with that consultant for a month (2 payslips) then you can happily transfer your H1.
