Hi there:
My mother in law is visiting us. This is her 2nd time in this country. In 2007 when she visited us in USA, we applied for the extension and it was approved but the 2nd time when we applied for the extension again it was denied.
She is visiting us this year too. As usual she receved 6 months visa on the port of entry, we're planning to apply for the extension again. 6 month will expire on 29th of november, 2009. Also as we have out first kids about 4 months ago and that is another reson she wants to stay another 4/5 months.
In the reson of extension should we mention "she wants to stay for the baby" or should we mentioned about her anticipated trip to other states?
There are only 15 days left in her passport; is that okay to apply for the extension?
i'm ready with all the application paperworks. Any input is appreciated in the above mentioned matter.
My wife and my current status: i-485 pending for last 2.5 years.
Thanks ahead

I was wondering if it's possible to add a meter like one used at Wikipedia for fundraising..

You think the quota this coming year will be exhausted on 1st April itself? Or do you guess that its going take longer, if not as long as this past year?

Do you have any update on your EAD status? Because, I too have a similar situation.

For tax purposes you are resident of state where you reside. For best opinion you can check with the international students center at your school. It is not illegal to attend classes online if your school allows you the option. .

Immigration Visa Attorney Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
No, not the Michael Jackson, This is It. This is it for FY 2009 H-1B season. USCIS states that as of December 15, approximately 64,200 cases have been filed. That leaves about 800 slots left for H-1B applicants and perhaps several hundred on top of that since USCIS will need to account for potential denials or revocations of previously filed H-1B applications.
Back on April 1, 2009, a lot of speculation was made about how fast or slowly the H-1B quota would fill. Predictions from one day to 6 months were made. But it looks a lot clearer now... by Christmas or maybe, by the New Year. There really is no way to tell. Practitioners who focus on H-1B work like me, know that odds look dim for someone seeking a new H-1B and who hasn't started the process yet. Issues of delayed LCAs (labor condition applications) and employer FEIN (federal employer ID numbers) are wreaking havoc on how quickly anyone can prepare a new application to get in on this year's quota.
If you have not been able to file an H-1B yet. Call us about planning your case for April 1, 2010. It's never too early, but it can be too late. ---ecf

I heard that GC is for a future position. If this is the case, can labor, I-140 and I-485 be filed for a person and this person join the company after labor, I-140 and I-485 have been approved? The person will join the same position mentioned in the labor cert with salary >= the labor petition.

I need a little advice on sponspring my uncle vistor's visa from India
My uncle works in auto industry and I would like to nspor him for a vistor visa. His family will not be visting and he is taking care of his in-laws as well.
Does including his family members make any difference?
Also, having a different family name makes any difference in the sponsor's letter?
Any help is appreciated.
You can send a sponsorship letter along with other supporting documents like I-134, bank statements and etc. Ultimately, your uncle has to prove and convince the consular officer that he has strong ties in India in order for him to obtain the visa.

Hello
I have got done my medical exam required for adjust of status.
My doc gave me only a single sheet of page in a sealed envelop to send to the USCIS for the purpose.
My QUESTION is, is it only one page to be submitted in the sealed envelop, as the form doesnt have any of my passport details or reciept numbers for the form 140's/485
He has only given me page 3 of the attached file, is that sufficient?
http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-693.pdf

Please advice as i have recieved an RFE for this in January and have to submit it in a timely manner.
Thanks.

Yes it matters.
During my LCA my company moved 10 miles to another city which was in a different county and my attorney had to file for a new LC. In fact she also asked to mention any other location (like house if in different city) if that was applicable.
The main reason for that is salary level.
My company is in a different state. I am consulting and hence working in a different state. Do we specify the job location in PERM application ? If yes, does it matter that I am working at a different location ? I am working on applying PERM in EB-2. Thanks.

I am filing for Advance Parole for my wife. What documents do you suggest I submit along with the application in addition to those listed on USCIS website? What is a better option to use - e-filing or via regular mail?
She plans to travel around last week of February. Is there a way to expedite processing of the AP document? Do I need to buy an airline ticket for her in advance to show the urgency of AP?
Response will be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
Would some one post info on how to get directly to level 2 or 3 USCIS customer service rather than level 1. I Called USCIS couple of times, the customer said I need to wait 90 days to check the status with them. I filed in July and have no receipt. I would like to know whether my case is entered in USCIS database. Please guide!
Thanks

I just noticed that the I-140 my lawyer submitted 3 months ago to Nebraska has a typo in my DOB (21/07/2978 instead of 21/07/1978). Yes its a thousand years out! A copy of my latest I-94 and visa both showing my correct DOB were also submitted with the I-140.
Do any of you guys think I'll have the I-140 rejected, recieve an RFE, or will the Nebraska officer just use common sense and amend it himself? What do you reccomend I do if anything?
Since it is 140, your attorney or you company HR can call up and get this corrected, They will give you a service number. Also they will ask for an email address after 45 days you will get an email that it will be corrected when the file is being reviewed by an officer.

Sorry..I have incorrectly named the thread..it suppose to read this way- "Changed Employer (but not informed USCIS), travelling on AP" .
A couple of points : 485 is your property. Its a grey area whether to inform USCIS or not, some advocate it as its a proof and file AC21 and some have different opinion its a personal choice. Regarding using AP I myself dont see an issue. Rest of all are supporting dox. Nice to have supporting documents.
Informing USCIS is nothing but officially filing AC21. Since there are no forms its just a letter indicating AC21.

Hi,
I have my I140 approved couple of years ago and now our company is being acquired by another firm. As a result I may lose my job. I am on 5th year of H1 and have I140 copy.
I got an offer with a project from a top consulting firm who is willing to transfer my H1 and also carry forward GC.
However I am concerned, as that consulting firm has the history of cancelling the H1 once they could not find any new projects after the current project. But in current market scenario, I could find any other opportunity and it may be necessary to join that firm.
So lets say after one/two years, if I lose my job with that firm and want to carry forward my H1/GC with other company, will it be possible?
What should I ask the firm now (terms and conditions, before start working with them) to make my self in safe position later on?
Thanks for your advice.

PD on your profile does not sound realistic, whats your actual PD? I assume you have not filed your 485 according to your profile. This may help throw some opinions.

Currently my wife is on H4
I'm planning to file H1 for my wife (through another employer on April 1st, 2009). Regardless of the situation (H1B Cap lottery process or general process) if my wife's H1B petition is accepted, processed and approved (generally betwen April 15th 2009 and May 31st 2009), she will get work permit (with start date of Oct 1st, 2009) by May or mid June, 2009.
My company is also planning to file for my H1 Extension (along with H4 Extension) in April (cannot be filed it seems due to other cases) So, in this scenario if my H1 extension (along with my wife's H4 extension) is filed after April 1st 2009, then we will have an overlap situation (as USCIS will be receiving two petitions (one for H1 and one for H4) for my wife) in the same timeframe. How will USCIS deal with these scenarios?
As long as her H4 is approved before her H1 (if she gets through lottery and approval process), there won't be a problem (as H1 will be replacing her H4 to my understanding).
But if her H4 is approved after her H1B approval, then there is a risk that her H1B will be cancelled because of H4 approval.
Please let me know solution to this problem. Thanks in Advance
