she has to go alone if you dont need a stamp.
filing for I-485 should not cause problems.
My advice do wait till you get the receipt.

Hello fellows in pain!
I have a question, I am currently stuck in EB3 retrogression with 140 approved. I am contemplating switching jobs and try out for EB2. Could anyone please share thoughts on my chances? Below are my education / experience details:
- US Bachelors in Computer Science
- More less 5-6 years of experience in my field plus a number of advanced certifications from Microsoft and Sun (I suppose these don't really matter).
- However, the above mentioned years of experience have not been all gained right after college. Last 2 years of college I was working full time in my field and going to school full time.
Any suggestions would be extremely helpful!
Cheers,
Me.

Can a senior member kindly address these questions posted for the last couple days. A quick response will be highly appreciated.
My case is very similar to yours. I had applied my I-140 in Oct 2006. Got an RFE for Ability to Pay which was responded to in Feb 2006. LUD changed twice in Feb and there was no progress. I upgraded to premium processing in June but there was no progress in my case even after 15 days past. Recently I got to know thru my lawyer that my case has been moved to the TSC Review Department for a background check and a decision is pending. I have taken an INFOPASS appointment to meet with an immigration officer to follow up about my case on Friday.
There are lot of people who are now stuck in background checks at I-140 stage which was very uncommon before.
I would advise you to follow up with you lawyer to get more details on your case. My lawyer actually spoke with the Immigration Officer at TSC.
Goodluck!

Is that even if I-140 is not approved (pending), after I-485 is pending for 180 days, one can change jobs using the EAD?
http://www.visalaw.com/05may4/2may405.html
Read about the AC21 analysis - You can change with either H1 or EAD. You can also do so before 180 days, but not without some risk (case by case basis).

I had got a similar enquiry from DOL couple of years back. They were explicit in asking about being paid while on bench. In my case I have had minimal bench time and hence answered accordingly. I am sure there must be other employees in my company (desi IT consulting) who are getting paid irregularly.
I do not think it will effect your new H1B decision. Bottom line is do not lie. If you don't want to tell the truth, don't reply to them.

No questions asked about visa or 485. Just had to show my passport and AP document :)
Thanks for the response. My wife has started working on EAD. So when she comes back, will she have to enter on AP? And as you said, they would not ask for I-485 receipts...Correct? I don't have I-485 receipts and I am just scared that if they ask for it, and I don't have it, then what happens...
Do you know of someone who was asked for the I-485 receipts on their way back?

Hello,
Sorry to be posting here but how do I start a new post?
Here is my situation:
My husband started GC and our PD is nov 2006. I 140 approved. I am on H1 B. Now, my husband decided to move out of country for studies. So, our application is abandoned right? We have not received any RFEs so can he still apply for AP? Otherwise, how else can he visit USA...H4? Can he still get H4? If yes can it be applied from any US embassy? What all documents are needed? OR should he just try tourist visa now?
Thank you!

Even if Charles did say that EB2 India / China will have a cut off date of Dec 2003, how come the lawyers did not question him on this logic?
EB2 India was U from Feb 2008... The way I (and most people) interpreted that was that all visas for FY 2008 were used up... The possibility of new visas was only through spillover from other categories (or recapture of unused visas from other years).
What's happening here that after being moved to Jan 2000 before becoming U in Feb, suddenly things are moving all the way to 2003.
While I would love for this to happen, this seems to be a very remote possibility.

Hi,
My parents' and 2 brothers' B2 visas got rejected yesterday. The VO didn't state the refusal reason. He didn't stamp anything on their passports. I got my GC through asylum, and will get married in Nov. 2009. I supplied a formal letter from my pastor about the wedding that it's real. And my parents stated that they are not bringing my youngest brother to the US because he has school. During the interview, the VO asked them about me. He knew that I got my GC through asylum. He asked if I work or go to school. My parents answered honestly that I'm currently working to support myself.
My parents didn't show their bank account, certificate of properties and business because the VO didn't ask for it. Should they show them to VO eventhough he didn't ask to see it?
Now, we're preparing to apply B2 visa for a second time. Here are my questions:
1. When do you think they should apply for the visa again?
2. What can we prepare to show proofs that they will definitely go back to their country? Should we prepare a letter stating reasons why they won't immigrate to US?
3. They are taking care of my elderly grandfather, 80 years old. Should they bring a picture of him?
3. Will they have a better chance if they left all my 3 siblings at home to give more reason they will definitely go back?
My parents definitely don't want to immigrate to the US.
Help...help....please...I really want them to attend my wedding.
Thanks a bunch for all of your advise!

1. Yes there is shortcut. Join desi software company. You will get forged diplomas.
2/3. Not applicable. Refer 1 above
4. Current job market is great. Obama is going to reverse outsourcing. All software job from India & china will come back to USA. But for china return job you need to know some mandarin. But no certificate needed refer 1. Above
5. I made such a transition recently I was mortgage securities bundler at lehman bros. Now I am successful engineer
6. Salaries start at around 150k per year even in places like north Dakota. But since engineers understand log scale, salaries grow exponentially
Hope this helps

Do you have any idea why the petition was denied? Was there an RFE? Appeals of H-1 denials are generally taking more than a year, and are rarely successful. Quickly filing a new and extremely well documented H-1 petition with a request for premium processing is really your best option. Note that if the new petition is approved you will have to leave the US and get a new H-1 visa before you can re-enter and resume legal work authorized status.

First a totally unrelated topic. Doesn't the portal send email notifications when someone replies to your post etc? I am a new member to this portal and was trying to find my post, but got lost in all the immigration related sites out there because I wasn't able to remember where I had posted :P . I really apologize if you thought that I had disappeared after posting.
Back to the main topic. Now my H1 and wife's H4 is transferred and extended. We have the approval notices with the new I-94's. I am really confused about the visa stamping question.
1] Do I first get our new H1B/H4's stamped (the old visa is valid till 10/2008. new one is valid till 10/2011)
2] Then get I-20 for my wife
3] Then get her F1 stamped.
Now the main question is, can I directly go for her F1 stamping, without the need to go through the intermediate step of H4 stamp. I ask this because the I-20 will be issued on the new I-94, but the stamp on the passport is still the old one. So basically what I want to do is, go to our home country, get my H1B stamped and simultaneously get her F1 stamped too. I have a bad feeling that I will have to get the H4 stamped before I do the F1. Please advise.

This is a good effort towards solving the retrogression issue. Like many silent readers, I do have concern about contributing to a new organization.
Is there a way to know more details about this effort? Please send me a personal email so I can understand more and contribute with confidence.

since leaving the employer was not my intent but the employer`s decision
It gives you more protection in some cases (i.e. I-485 is pending less than 180 days). Overall, you should worry about finding new job more than this portability stuff. Whatever regulations they come up with will not have retroactive effect, AFAIK.
