My fianc� is on a tourist visa and I am on a H1B visa, we are planning to get married while she is on a tourist visa? Is that okay to do so, any restrictions?
Second question After marriage can I convert her visa to H4 dependant visa while she is here, so that she can stay with me without going back? Does she have to go out of the country for this conversion to happen?
Also if she wishes to go out of the US on the tourist visa after we get married can she still apply for a dependant visa H4 to come here ? Will that cause any issues for her?
Which one is better to do, marry and apply for her conversion right away over here or should she go back and apply from outside the country?
Thanks Much!

Thanks for sharing, It describes about Numerical limit not apply during Quarter which means spillover should occur quarterly. I don't think they follow that today.

People made same mistake nth times. This text (last year bill) was replaced with new compromised text. Forget about SKILLLLLLLLLL
In CIR 2007 (S.1348) Title V, subtitle B is skill act of 2007 SEC.524 says about people with masters and higher degrees will not be counted against the numerical caps. This says it is amending Section 201(b)(1) (8 U.S.C. 1151(b)(1)) which is about the numerical caps. As this is in the section of backlog reduction does this mean that those who already are in the process and is backlogged will be given green cards out the numerical cap?

Filed 02/18 (law was passed 02/17) under premium, approved 02/24.
Congrats.
I wonder how DOL is interpreting the "new employment" clause in the new law that prevents TARP companies from sponsoring H1Bs. Technically, an LCA filed for an H1B extension is for a "period of new employment". If they were to strictly follow this technicality, H1B extensions by TARP companies would also be unlawful. However, from the employer's perspective, an H1B extension is not a new employment, but a continuation of an existing one.
Have any of the celebrity immigration lawyers published their interpretation yet?

You should just provide a valid reason for your case for the senator to help. All senators have direct lines to immigration offices. They can expedite your case and the results are astonishing.
My cousin left to india for an emergency and his AP was pending. Contacted senator and got it approved immediately in a day.
I also heard that one person got his 140 approved in a week. Not sure what reason he provided.
But senators are certainly helpful unlike Indian politicians.
With reference to some one’s case being transferred to the BEC, there are 300,000 other people in the same boat so hold you’re horses.

Hello,
Can any of you throw some light on these
To my understanding, if one is maxing out 6 years of H-1B visa on Nov 30, 2009 and doesn't have a way of extending to the 7th year H-1B.Then he has to stay physically outside of USA for 1 year.
1.Does 1 year stay have to be in the home country only?
2.Can one come and visit USA for a month[June 2010] or so between Nov30,09 and Nov 30,2010.[Eg: Conference, interview]?
3.If answer is yes to 2, would one have to stay for another 1 year away from July 2010? or they can come back to US during Dec 2010, if they have a new H-1B job?
Inputs appreciated.
Thanks

Applied for AP/EAD/485 in July 07.....I know that I can invoke AC21 after 180 days and change jobs.....My question is ,
1. If I travel to India before the 180 days and use the AP when I return, is it like invoking AC21 before 180 days ?
2. what are the consequences of using AP within 180 days after filing for 485 ?
3. Is AP and AC21 related ? [brother, sister , cousin :) ]
Thanks.
1. No.
2. None.
3. No.
AC21 changes the sponsoring employer on your green card petition (the one that you plan to work for upon final approval).

I have filed I-485 in Aug2007 and am in retrogression. I am currently working for my sponsoring employer on H1 but also have EAD and AP. I have to go to India to address parents health issues and may have to stay there for possibly 6-9 months. I plan on re-entering using AP.
1) Will my GC application stay active if I am gone for such a long time?
2) My fingerprinting was done long ago - do I need to be in US when my case is adjudicated and GC approval is sent in the mail?
3) Since I will lose my current job due to the long absence, will that be an issue at POA since I wont have a current job or a job offer letter to show the IO?

Hi All,
I recently noticed the Audited Dates for PERM moved up nearly by 9 months to Dec 2009.
My labor filed in June 2009 has been in audit.
My employer is telling that that still my case is in process.
Has any body filed in 2009 and been in Audit got it approved recently?
Those of you who have audited PERMS should check with the employers as the employers may not be checking the status regularly. Please do post if you have any updates.

Hi,
I have a question. I am on H1 and are planning to extend my H1 along with my wife H4. My question is, we both have EAD's and I never use EAD. My wife is looking for jobs on EAD. If she works on EAD, can she still able to extend H4 status?
Thanks
As long as she does not work, and she has entered the country using her H4 (as against entering using Advance Parole), she is on H4. Once she uses her EAD, she is no longer on H4. Subsequent US entries will need to be on Advance Parole.
This is my "understanding".

Sorry if I am posting this in the wrong place, wasn't exactly sure where to post.
I applied for my Certifcate of Citizenship through my US citizen father about 5 years ago, and due to that US citizen father being an ass I still don't have it.
I have decided to just go back to England. I am happy about going back now and this post isn't about finding other ways of getting my citizenship.
When I originally came to the US I intended just to visit so I came on the Visa Waiver Program, and then decided to stay and become a citizen
My query is: When I leave to go back home will I be able to leave the US with just my passport(recently renewed) and ticket? or will I have to contact the USCIS and get some kind of letter or the like?
Thank You
You do not need any agency's permission to leave US. Just submit the I-94 form if you have one.

Today, my friend told me that there is new policy prohibiting employees from paying the H1B application fees for their employers. Has someone heard about this policy? If so, would you please provide me some more details on the issue? Where could I find the policy?
I have got two offers. Both the employers are willing to help me apply for H1B, but I need to pay all the fees by myself. I think that is ok for me. But under this new policy, I am not sure whether this strategy would work out or not. I really very worry about this issue. Your kindly help is highly appreciated!! Million thanks!
Prohibiting employees from paying the H1B application fees is not a new policy. It has always been there.
Refer violation 4.(i) in http://www.dol.gov/esa/forms/whd/WH-4.pdf
However there is a new policy prohibiting employees from paying Labor related expenses in GC process.

All,
I recently came back from India, and got a new I-94 at port of entry, but later I noticed that CBP officer added 10 more days to my I-94 expiry(it may be a mistake by the officer)
Do I need to worry about this? any advice/suggetion?
Thanks -MK
You dont need to worry about this. This is pretty common.

If this is a duplicate thread, I apologize and admin please close/delete this.
1) Many of us have already used AC21, The current economic condition might force us to switch job on EAD, Can we file AC21 multiple times. Has any one done this.
2) If I do not file AC21, with new job and can we leave with the 1st employer as for future employment, Join the original employer we filed AC21 upon approval of GC, In than condition, an offer letter from the employer hold good in case of RFE.
