HI,
I recently booked an appointment for visiting visa for my parents through vfs, during the process , I first entered my Dad's details and then his ds 156, then It asked if I wanted to add additional family members, then I entered my Mom's details and her ds 156 . After that it asked for my Mom's ds 157 and never showed my Dad's ds 157.
So the final list of documents it generated was :
Dad's ds 156, Mom's ds 156,157 , interview letter.
Is this correct, does my dad need ds 157 and interview letter or is 1 ds 157 and interview letter enough ?
Thank you for your time.

Hi Gurus,
I filed my 485 in June 07 ad hd my FP on 7th September, 07. I read on some of the threads that we would be geting notices for additional finger printing after 15 months or so. I havent received any yet. Should I be proactive an request for one? Will my EAD finger printng count towards the requirement? ( I had given my biometrics formy EAD last April i.e 08 April ). Is this the reason why I did not get the FP notice? Any one in my boat?
Please advise.
Thanks in advance

I feel he will not ignore legal immigrants. There will be action for sure, as it appears. We should take this as positive when he says +ve about H1B. If he said something bad, then thats bad also for others.

Here is an excerpt from the link below.. it sounds crazy
"Visa numbers can retrogress in the middle of a month and become unavailable without prior notice. If there is a mid-month retrogression, USCIS could elect to stop accepting adjustment applications. While this is unlikely to occur in July 2007, it becomes more and more possible as the fiscal year progresses. "
I hope this doesnt happen.

My 6 years of H1B expires next month (April 2009). My PERM labor was applied in Feb 2008 and got approved last week. My question is, can I apply for 7th year H1B extension based on the approved PERM (since it was filed more than 365 days ago)? Attorney says there is not enough time to file I-140 and get it approved (even with Premium processing) before my H1 runs out next month.
From my research online there are two options to extend H1 beyond 6 years:
- PERM pending for more than 365 days, or
- I140 approved
What about the scenario where PERM is filed more than 365 days ago and approved, but no I-140 yet?
Gurus I'd really appreciate your inputs here!!
You are good to extend your H1B for 1 year.
You are eligible for premium I-140. If you have given exact date on your H1B expiry then I would have answered whether you can get I-140 approved before applying for H1B.
The benefit of applying H1B extension with I-140 approval is that you can get 3 years.
Now you can still get your H1B extended for 1 year. No second thought on that, don't worry too much on that. The PERM need not be pending for 365 days, it can be approved. The rule is you should have applied for PERM 365 days before asking for H1B extension, which is true in your case.
Good luck.

Instead of pay increase, I decided to buy stock in the company I work for (small startup firm) and I work using my EAD, AC21
My compensation and with some profit sharing makes me a 6-7% owner of the firm on paper.
Now, if the company gets hit by a lawsuit and dragged to court, will I be affected?
(My role is strictly IT related and also assist in Data Analytics).
My immigration lawyer is yet to respond.

My feeling was that there are No NEW jobs here in USA especially for immigrants. I felt jobs are slowly being offshored and new job creation was not catching upto that. This matches with unemployment numbers 10%+... Also I feel there are enough people looking for PROJECT while on H1B..
Its good to see this is changing with new H1b hiring happening!!
P.S I am not anti-immigrant!

No. If that were possible, I am sure even the 2010 quota would have gotten 65,000 applications by now!
Can we send the application early, like one week in advance ?

1) There are flights from Manchester, NH to Baltimore, MD for about 150$ (Flying to DC from Manchester costs an additional 100$). It is just 45 miles from Washington, DC. I have read in one of the postings that there are trains from Baltimore to DC Central. We can book hotels in DC through Priceline.
2) If we have enough people, we may be able to drive to DC (rent a bus or a minibus from Boston) But it is at least a 10 hour drive. That means we may have to take at least half the day off on Wednesday as well. We can then start back Thursday evening itself.
It makes sense to book hotels together as it will give us a better chance to prepare for the rally.
I hope more people come forward. I know this is a difficult thing to do. But it is necessary.
There are so many IV members from in and around Massachusetts and only one other has volunteered so far!

Hi,
I am relocating to a different city and my current employer, who started my Green Card process, is ready to offer me job as a consultant. This would be a tele-commuting / remote position. I would be paid on an hourly basis -- 40 hours per week.
I am currently on H1B visa, but also have a valid EAD.
Would accepting this offer be ok for my ongoing green card process? Any ideas on how I can approach this offer? Or would I be better off looking for a another permanent position with some other company.
Would you please let me know your thoughts.
Thanks!

I dont think that the USCIS can staff all the Port of Entries with officers who are well versed in every single visa type.
It can hardly be expected that a typical POE officer is aware of all the requirements and intricasies of the H1B visa; LCA, prevaling wage, bench, client/employer, paystubs, client letter etc.
Nevertheless it is possible that there might be some POE officers placed at certain places (strategically ? ) in light of recent efforts to enforce H1B and DOL regulations more stringently; especially in light of the recent report highlighting the large amount of frauds and violations in the H1B program. In that case; one should still be fine if one has long term client project, all paystubs, tax returns etc.
Is there any way Immigration voice can find out if there has been a change of policy to enforce H1B regulations at the Port of Entry? (In addition to consular interviews and applying for the H1B itself)

Hi all,
I graduated this June and started working in a company on my OPT status (valid July 2009 to July 2010) since July until now. In October, my company filed H-1B petition, and on Nov 24, we got approval notice I-797B (without I-94) instead of I-797A, as well as a DENIAL of concurrent change of status.
Shortly after we filed the petition, I took a short trip to my home country and then come back(with OPT status) on Nov 1.
In the notice, it states "...the beneficiary departed the US on Oct. 15 2009, thereby abandoning the requested change of status. As such, the beneficiary has failed to maintain his F-1 status. Accordingly, the concurrent request for change of nonimmigrant status is denied."
I am really confused here because I re-entered the US with my F-1 OPT status on Nov. 1 without any issue.
What should I do now in order to get my H-1B visa? Am I still maintaining F-1 status (legally staying in the US) even if it stated that I have failed to??
Great Thanks in advance!!
