You are speaking about the job doing, what is the present visa status now?
Hi All,
I hold different administrative and accounting responsibilities in my company. My company can't sponsor me as an accountant, because I don't have too much experience.
Are there any other occupation which can fit my responsibilities to get an H1B visa?
Thank you for your help.

My Permanent residency is being processed thru Employer A (I-140 not done yet).
Employer A also holds my H1B. This is my only H1B, and it extends based on approved labor as I am on my 7th year if H1B.
If A files for Chapter 11, will my H1B and permanent residency get cancelled/revoked?
If my current H1B is valid till Nov 2010, and employer A files for chapter 11 in Dec 2010, will I be able to stay/work in US at least till Nov 2010?
What will be my options if H1B / GC gets cancelled? Can I transfer this H1B to a different employer? Or, can a different employer has to file for a new H1B? :confused:
Your answer/advices are highly appreciated.

My mother recently got a tourist visa for 10 years. I know that when she enters USA she will get I-94 which will be valid for 6 months, and she has to go back before the I-94 expires. My question is:
1) Can she go back to India for say 2 months and come back to US to stay for another 6 months?
Ex: she comes on 1st Jan 2011 , goes back 31st June 2011 , then stay for couple of months in India and Again Come Back on 1st Sep and stay for more 6 months ?
According to my understanding tourist can stay only 6 months in USA in a calendar year, provided they don’t apply for extension, is it true?
2) What if she comes on 1st Jan 2011 stays for 6 months, applies for 6 months extension gets it.
Goes back in month of Dec. stays for 2 months and again comes on March 1st 2012, will she face any problem at port of entry? Due to her extension she took on her last visit?
Please help me understand pros and corns? What is the best way to use 10 years tourist visa to stay in USA legally to Maximum period.

The H-2B program is critically important for many businesses that have difficulty finding U.S. workers to fill temporary jobs. This is particularly true in seasonal industries. Comments from H-2B employers attest to the need for foreign workers in physically demanding seasonal jobs, often in remote locations, that many U.S. workers will not take.
The H-2B nonimmigrant visa (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137785.html) program permits employers to hire foreign workers to come to the U.S. and perform temporary nonagricultural work, which may be one-time, seasonal, peak load or intermittent and there are no qualified and willing U.S. workers available for the job. Note that this visa is not available for "temporary" agencies or other work placement agencies.
In order to learn more about employers� perceptions of the H-2B program, ImmigrationWorks USA and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce conducted a survey: five short questions distributed among H-2B employers in July and August 2010. The survey asked how many H-2B workers the company had hired in the last three years and what types of jobs those workers held. It included two open-ended questions about the benefits of using the program and asked what if any problems employers had experienced.
Another open-ended question asked what employers would do if they were not able to hire H-2B workers. Participation was voluntary, and results could be submitted via email, fax or the internet. A total of 367 employers responded. The majority of H-2B employers who responded to the survey noted that temporary foreign workers are reliable and hard-working. Many also praised these workers� productivity: a benefit that offsets the cost of bringing them into the United States. Respondents appreciated that H-2B workers were willing to work seasonal jobs and then return home when the season ended.
Important benefit of the program is that it offers companies a way to hire foreign workers when U.S. labor markets tighten. The program increases labor market flexibility by allowing businesses to bring in foreign workers when U.S. workers move up to better, higher-paying jobs during economic expansions.

DAZED: Once your H1B extension is approved, it will expire only on the date shown in I797. Your 485 rejection does not invalidate your H1. BTW, if you use your H1, your H1 is invalid but you will still be able to extend it as long as it has not expired.

Hi!
My H1B was filed on April 1st 2007 at Vermont Service Center while i was in India and got selected in the lottery. I came to US on May 13th on H4 visa (I 94 valid till July 18, 2008) and still my papers were under process.
On June 1st, 2007 the approval notice was sent to my employer.
Oct 1st, 2007 they applied for my change of status and on 19th it was returned back as a check for 500$ was not included.
Kindly let me know if we could go for a H1B Transfer and change of status simultaneously with a new employer.
Within what time line i need to apply for the same.
Thanks,
SV
If you need to switch employer you should be on valid H1 status with SSN and have paystubs from current employer for safe side.
Pl consult good immi lawyer for best advice/lawyer of new employer.

I strongly support filing I-485 without the priority date restriction.
I am not sure what is best on the long term basis. Where can INS decrease the processsing time with the existing format. What type of techniques or methods can change the existing GC processing format so the time required for a petetion to go through decreases significantly?

Did anyone (or spouse) applied for Social Security No. who were using ITIN before, for tax purposes. I have applied for 485 and EAD and plan to apply for my wife's Social Security once I get the EAD. Are there any tax filing implications? How to switch to this new number and still be able to e-file next year (assuming I get EAD this year)?
You are worrying about something too early.
Anyways, next year, you need to write your wife's SSN instead of ITIN in the field on 1040 form where it says "SSN". Usually, in absence of SSN we mention ITIN. but after you get SSN, use SSN.
As far as tax implications, there wont be any tax implication if she gets SSN but does not work. If she does not work then it doesnt really matter whether she has SSN or ITIN, you will be able to file as "Married filing jointly" status (where the tax is the least).
If she does work, you will still be able to file as "Married filing jointly" status but ofcourse, her income would be taxable and you will have to include her income from her W2s also.
Anyways, you have a lot to worry about things before April 2008.

Some good news for visa (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html)holders that are about to loose their visa sponsored jobs or already lost the visa job. In a decision issued today by the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) in Matter of Neto, which empowers immigration judges who are considering deportation of individuals with approved work-related visa petitions and pending permanent residence applications. The issue at stake is whether an immigration judge has the authority to decide whether the approved visa petition - issued for one job - remains valid when the individual changes jobs. Without a valid visa petition, the individual will not be eligible for permanent residence.
In 2000, Congress passed the American Competitiveness in the Twenty-First Century Act, which allowed applicants for permanent residence based on approved visa petitions the flexibility to change jobs. However, in 2005, the BIA decided in Matter of Perez-Vargas that an immigration judge had no authority to decide whether a new job was the same as or similar to the old job, which determines validity of their visa petition. This left these applicants for permanent residence in limbo, stripping them of the ability to benefit from the 2000 law while in removal proceedings because the judges couldn't, and the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service wouldn't, determine the validity of their visa petition.
Today, in Matter of Neto, the BIA overruled its own earlier decision that denied judges this authority and will now allow them to decide whether a new job is acceptable, thus keeping the individual's eligibility for permanent residence intact. In which case, the visa petition remains valid and the immigrant worker can proceed with an application to become a lawful permanent resident - potentially saving them from deportation.

Dallas-Fort Worth Immigration Lawyer Has Just Posted the Following:
On November 12, 2009, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) launched a 30 day pilot program to test the entry process for travelers under the Visa Waiver Program (VWP) from Auckland, New Zealand to Los Angeles International Airport. The program automates the arrival/departure of travelers with an approved Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) for travelers on Air New Zealand Flight 6. Travelers on this flight will not need to fill out the paper I-94W.
The VWP allows nationals from VWP countries to fill out an ESTA application prior to traveling to the United States to determine the traveler’s eligibility and whether such travel poses a security risk. The ESTA application provides basic biographical, travel, and eligibility information and must be submitted online prior to traveling. There are currently 35 countries eligible to travel to the United States under the VWP. Travelers under this program may enter the U.S. for either business or tourism for up to 90 days without obtaining a visa.
To view the list of VWP countries please visit the CBP website at www.cbp.gov (http://www.cbp.gov).
