Hi All,
I would like my parents and my younger brother who is in his engineering college 2 nd yr to visit me on visitor visa. My father is a government emoployee with more than a yr job left, my mother has retired last yr and my brother has still 2yrs left for his engineering.
1. Do you think they should raise any objection for my brother getting a tourist visa ?
2. Should my brother's case affect my parent's case as well? I think given my father is a govt employee in India, that should work in his favor? Any thoughts.
Thanks in advance,

is you will be paying double fees.USCIS will automatically deny 1 case when the other one is approved.
I am in the same situation (but my PD is 1 year earlier than my wife) but I am just filing my case and holding of my wife's I-140.

Hi all!
Wat would be the status of F1 student (OPT) mother of a US born baby after her visa expires, who is a single parent???
Mother will obviously be illegal. You should have no doubts about that!

I am in the same boat (will be filing for extension within a month)...
Just interpreting the amendment as it is - looks like this applies only to new hires...
Link to article from a leading immigration law firm
http://pubweb.fdbl.com/news1.nsf/9abe5d703b986cff86256e310080943a/9305d862a955b30a8525755c0058f9d0?OpenDocument
What is in the Bill?
"
(1) IN GENERAL.--Notwithstanding any other provision of law, it shall be unlawful for any recipient of funding under title I of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (Public Law 110-343) or section 13 of the Federal Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. 342 et seq.) to hire any nonimmigrant described in section 101(a)(15)(h)(i)(b) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(15)(h)(i)(b)) unless the recipient is in compliance with the requirements for an H-1B dependent employer (as defined in section 212(n)(3) of such Act (8 U.S.C. 1182(n)(3))), except that the second sentence of section 212(n)(1)(E)(ii) of such Act shall not apply.
(2) DEFINED TERM.--In this subsection, the term ``hire'' means to permit a new employee to commence a period of employment"
Common sense interpretation would be - if TARP recipient is looking to hire (new employee) a non-immigrant they have comply with H1B Dependant employer rules.
However, it is upto USCIS & DOL on how to interpret and implement it as a law. If they classify any TARP recepient to be "H1B Dependent" and if they consider H1B extensions as new hire (which is an expansive interpretation), then our extension might have an impact.

Hi. I realized that I made a mistake when filling out the I 485 Part Three:
Processing Information. Specifically, I filled in the I-94 number issued for my H1B as the "Nonimmigration Visa Number", instead of the visa number I got when I was still in F1 Student status.
I called USCIS twice and they informed me that I can make corrections after I get the receipt--I can send in a corrected form, along with a letter explaining the correction, and also a copy of the receipt.
I was wondering whether anyone here had done that before.
I am kicking myself for misunderstanding the form! Please help!

I am in same boat - do you mean we can do ourselves or lawyer has to do it?

I had applied I485 via my previous employer in 2007 under EB3.
I am planning to upgrade to EB2 by applying new Labor Cert and I140 via my current employer.
Do I need to file a fresh I485 again?

Here is my story -
- I came here in 1998 on F1
- Transferred to H1-B in 2002
- Filed for Labor Cert in 2005 (EB3) in Nevada
- I-140 approved in 2008
- I-485 pending for more then 180 days as of 2008
- EAD valid through 7/10/2009
- Got laid of in Feb 2009
- I got a job as an associate, a consultancy firm on W2 basis on Nov 17th, 2009 in WA
I have not done anything (i.e.informing the USCIS about job change etc.). I have the following questions.
- what documentation is required to be submitted to the USCIS about the new job.
- What kind of documentation is required from the employer vs myself
- When/how soon has this documentation is to be submitted
- When do i need to apply for my renewal of my EAD card
- What documentation is required to be submitted for the EAD renewal from employer vs myself
- Is it advisable to employ the services of an attorney if we run into issues.
- I worked on similar job for very short stints in between, but it was for a few weeks, does it endanger my case in anyway.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

HI Folks
The reason for this post is as usual- too much confusion and no clear answers. i read on oh law firm that if you are not in a non-immigrant status i.e are working on EAD, there should be no gap in your EAD while you are working. Meanin you should stop working if your current EAD expires and your new EAD is pending- otherwise its a violation of law and provisions of 245 do not protect you because technically you are NOT a non-immigrant.
Is that true?????
Now, i recently had to go to India for an emergency, and had to come back on AP- did not have time to get my H1b visa stamped. I asked at the immigration counter if my H1b is invalidated and he told me it is. I spoke to my lawyer and she told me if you resume your H1b employment with the same employer- you are back in status- i kinda did not buy that though.
Can someone please shed light. My concern is that my EAD is expired- new one is pinding. Although i was on h1b when i left for India, but came back using AP. Am i breaking a law by working??
thanks

We will sit idle and they will sit idle till the PD moves. Once the PD moves, they MIGHT get some 485 applications to process. Since the PD is retrogressed four to five years last year, most of the people with PD till the end of 2003 have already filed 485. The movement of PD until 2003 end will add some 485 to USCIS.
The real fun to watch is when the PD moves beyond Jan'04. The service center will be flooded with 485 applicaitons and the flood will keep on increasing as the dates move. Lots of permutations and combinations are invloved in this scenario.

same thing happen to me too, we applied for correction and got corrected PD after one month.
