I will appreciate your comments on my situation. I also have approved I-140 from TX and my company may ask me to move to NY/NJ for another project.
I also have one LC from MN pending in DBEC. Can I move to NY or do I have to go thru the PERM again?
Help?

Hi,
One of my friends got fired from a company and the company made him to sign a document that he was resigning. This guy somehow signed it so that he could get his salary. The employer eventually paid him the salary after signing the resignation document.
Few questions about his H1B visa.
1. How many days can he legally stay in the US before he finds one more job gets new H1B.
2. Can he transfer his H1B visa to a new company or does he need to apply for a new H1B visa (which is within the cap)?
3. Incase if he doesn't find a job within the legally permitted time, what are his options apart from going back?
4. Will he have any problem when he tries to transfer his H1B after the legally permitted time?
I would really appreciate if anyone can please help me with this questions.
Thank you very much!

Man, I lost my patience with them long back.
My case is NSC-EAC-NSC
I keep a log of anything "useful" I am told every time I speak to them. And usually, the first few mins are wasted in them giving me wrong info, me telling them what they told me last time and them finally agreeing with it after re-checking their screens.
btw .. it is indeed super-frustrating and unacceptable they way they are bouncing your case around.
Why is USCIS forgetting that we are paying for their third grade services?
I broke my politeness today.USCIS inconsistency broke the limits for me.
My case was filed in Nebarska then tranferred to Texas then as soon as the priority date became current, last month, it was transferred to California.
I talked yesterday to customer service and it by chance got transferred to California Service Center where the officer told me that my case was transferred back to Texas Service Center on August 14, 2008. She also told me to call TSC to confirm it.
I called today the National Customer Service Center (NCSC) to confirm it and the lady tells me that the case is still in California and she has no more infomation about it. I told her about my call yesterday.
Lady: How could you have ever called CSC because their phone numbers are not public
Me: I called the same number and for some reason it got transferred to CSC.
Lady: Then you have already been told that your case has been transferred back on Aug 14, what do you need now ?
Me: The website does not show that. Plus the officer yesterday asked me to confirm it which you are not doing, you are just repeating my words about my conversation. There are so many inconsitencies . You told me just now that my case is still in California.
Lady: Can you please hold for a moment.
After hold:
Lady: I just talked to my supervisor, if the website says it is in California then it is California. Is there anything else I can help you with ?
Me: I do not understand "To speed up processing " clause in the reason to transfer it to california. It has been transferred from the center which is processing 485 applications to the center which is not processing applications. So the clause "To speed up processing" is so inconsistent.
Lady: Sir, we cannot tell you the reason why do we transfers
Me: But you have already told me the reason in the written notice as "To speed up processing"
Lady: It is not "To speed up processing " it is "for processing". Is there anything else that I can help you with ?
Me: I hang up the phone.

Of the 3 the first one is my pick. Nature has little regard for keeping things level and plumb, so the shot has a slightly tilted feel to it. On the second one, it feels a bit cramped and probably would have benefitted by a bit more of the sky - perhaps by shooting from a lower angle.

If I were you, I would send a letter with the facts. I do not see a downside to this. On the upside, if the employer decides to settle you could potentially get some of your money back.

Hello guys,
I applied for I140 & I485 + EAD concurrently at the Texas service center on July 19th. I got the receipts dated Sept 11 on Sept 17 and a week later I got the EAD's. My priority date is Feb 04.
I live in New Jersey and I would assume my FP appointment will be at the NewArk USCIS center. I still did not get any FP notification yet and I started to worry because on the tracker a lot of people with the same dates did get one already. Should I worry or is OK for now ? Is New Jersey more crowded than other states and that is the reason for delay ??? Anybody else in the same boat ??
I know they consider the application abandoned if I have an appointment and don't go. If, god forbid, the letter is lost in the mail, is there any way I can find out if I have an appointment ?
I have don't have a lawyer so they will not send a copy of the FP appointment letter to the lawyer.
Please help !
:(:(:(:(
I am a June 25th filer, and i got my receipt for 485/131/765 on Sept 10th and haven't received any EAD or AP and no LUD as well forget about FP. I called TSC multiple time and was told first to wait till 90 days of filling ,then 30 days past receipt now 4 more weeks; since they are heavily backlogged busy in issuing receipts for 485 filer.
When i contacted my lawyer he told me the same he is still waiting for the receipts for some of his clients who filed in July/August and reassured me that if or when a receipt is issued he will also get a receipt notice, and will contact me ... so don't worry to much regarding FP misplacement and relax it will come... after all it is National security, if the US is not concerned regarding it then why should you .;)
By the way my PD is March,2003

Significance of Priority date???
PD is important to get your dates current faster. Earlier PD will get a better shot at being current early.
After your PD becomes current your 485s are assigned visa numbers (if your FP, namechecks and processing are done) GCs are allocated based on 3 important factors : Dates must be current, date the I485 was received (FIFO as per their SOP but factors like namechecks make it unfeasible) and country of chargeability. It is thus tough to review approval trends on tracker threads and sites because of small and incomplete data set and no info on factors that influence faster or slower I485 approvals.
Coming back to the country quota, I do not know how country quotas are allocated throughout the year. How overflow happens each month/quarter and how future demand is predicted each month for the entire year when providing visas to oversubscribed countries from the quota of under subscribed countries. This will be a good topic to research.

The illegals aren't Americans either and the email from Kennedy's staff basically talks about how well-received his Apr 10th speech in DC was and how the senator intends to fight to push immigration reform through the congress.
A lot of people signing up will give the staff the right impetus.
Appu can you pls post some link or documentation showing that this is indeed in our favour. If it is then i have no problem supporting it. But from the looks of it, it seems like it is against H1Bs and temporary workers.
Let us pls be careful as to what we sign/support. A couple of mistakes could spell disaster for all of us.

I would like to know what are the primary reasons why employers revokes approved I-140 after invoking AC21 after 180 days.
a. I think one of the reason is Labor substitution. If they want to use it for someone else. Now that this is eliminated, I think there will be minimal chances of revocation in future.
b. Do big companies like Infy, Wipro do this?
c. They could revoke because of problems between employer and employees...I think we need to be patient and work this out..
Please reply with ur inputs.
Wipro doesnot sponsor GC's that much.

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.

Step 1: You will be called for interview by random picking of applications,if the person is arrested and answered yes to if you ever got arrested(95% of the cases will be interviewed,if the people gets suspicision about the applicant and/or sponsoring company.
Step 2: The applicant will be notified about transfer of I485 petition to the local office in email. This stops all LUD's on the case and they pretty much dependent on the local office communication and no updates on their case online.
Step 3: The Local offices will schedule the interview based on the workload and the processing timelines.They will not stop interviewing because of the retrogression.
Step 4: They send out the interview letters either to attorney and/or applicant 2-3 weeks ahead and they specifically mention in block letters the documents they are looking for in addition the original documentation submitted.
Step 5: Attend the interview and make sure to take all the necessary documents listed below:
1 The AOS interview notice letters
2 Passport, I-94s
3 EADs (latest and expired)
4 The fingerprint interview notice letters
5 Letter from old-employer-name
6 new-employer-name Employee varification letter
7 new-employer-name pay-stubs for current and past year
8 new-employer-name Consultant varification letter
9 Marriage Certificate
10 Birth Certificates
11 Couple of Marriage Photographs
12 Degree certificates/transcripts
13 The receipts of last fingerprint
14 Copy of I-485 transfer notice to local office (least Important)
15 Copy of I-485 receipt notice

To the best of my knowledge these are the documents I may miss one or two.
Step 6: Once the interview is completed and the officer is satisfied with the documents and answers he will take the passports and check for the visa number to the A#. If he feels some discrepancy they will say that they will send the decision in mail which means we need to embrace for anything.
Step 7: If the visa number is issued from DOS he will then stamp the passport with I551 stamping and the card will be sent in week or two. If the decision is being sent in mail it generally(30%-70% of the times is rejection or asking for additional proof).
PS: It is not adviseable to reschedule the interview date. Once the date is reschedule one has to be prepared for long periods of time.It is good to get it done and get the moneky of our backs.
If you really need to reschedule the interview that is already scheduled one MUST MAKE SURE that the USCIS Local Offices are updated and get a written confirmation if possible otherwise the case will be considered abandoned.

It was mentioned last month in the AINP website that some changes would be there in the NOC list after April 15. Everybody whoever followed this thread saw the message earlier. On April 15 they removed the message from AINP website and apparantly there was no change in NOC list till now. OP gave us correct information when he/she created this thread. See my post in April 15 in this thread and I mentioned that nothing was changed in NOC list. Again going back to my original question did you follow this thread from start? I objected to this comment "I donno why people place messages with Half Knowledge". Apparantly you had the half knowlodge about this whole issue.
hey dude there's nothing in the url u posted once go to the website and click the the pressure list url.that is the actual Noc codes that are active.Today morning when i spoke to the immigraton officer in alberta he was the one who told me ok.
I think both of you are correct. :)
Initially AINP website had a message that starting April15th there will be change in NOC codes..but they removed it last week..so I guess, they are not going to change NOC list for now.

They would however have to disclose that period of out of stay when they file the GC as G325 A asks for all status history. In other words, you will get screwed.
Whoever has some approval by means of luck or fluke does not make it the law. They will take the bite when time comes. A COS is not the way to go. A visa stamp or travel and re-entry may be a better way and note that it does not erase any earlier out of stay period.
