You apply for H1 transfer before you join new company. Once u get the H1 receipt (2 weeks) then u can be in their payroll. Then file for AC21. If all goes well this is my plan in June 08.
My question is my wife has her EAD expiring 10/10/2008, AP on 11/19/08. She wants to travel to india in May and return in november. is it ok if I change employer while she is in india, my concern is when she comes back in november her EAD is expired, will it affect our 485 status?

Message for USCIS:
PERPETUAL EAD AND AP - STOP STEALING OUR MONEY AND CREATING MORE WORK FOR YOURSELF
they are not stealing your money. The current situation can be explained on the basis of existing laws. Need to be careful about our messaging.
The very fact that all fixes we are asking for are legislative changes implies that the current situation has less to do with USCIS and more with old arcane laws. There are a lot of things USCIS can be accused of, but not 'stealing money'

My attorney received an email notice of I-140 approval (PP) on Mon, June 25. But the online case status showed the application as pending. Finally,today my attorney called and was told that due to "system glitch ", approval notices were sent out in error!! It seems this has done to others too!!
Did anyone else encounter this?

My answer might be a little too pessimistic but I actually filed an appeal for a denied LC in Sep 2006. and as of today I still haven't heard from them. we tried calling and emailing them but they keep asking us to wait and they will get to it.
sorry and good luck. please keep me updated if you hear something from them.
Thanks
Have you hear anything from your appeal? Please let me know.

I have still not received the approved I-140. I am hoping it would have the old date since I request priority date transfer.

Most of people file taxes jointly and so I am wondering if it becomes an issue for spouse on H4 about false info on income.
If your wife is on H4 she has no income hence she qualifies for free medicaid insurance. provided you fill out the forms the right way.
And there is a seperate Health insurance sponsored by government for kids below 18 years. based on your wife's Medicaid, your child can qualify for that insurance in your state.
You might need to buy insurance for you.

Dear All ,
I recently got my I-140 approved, got our(me and spouse) EAD and AP too.Now what I am wondering is that
1.Am I still on H1 status or the status now becomes EAD ?
you are still on H1-B, EAD approval doesn't invlidate your H1-B status
2. If my H1 still holds good then should I go back to India to get my fresh H1 stamping as it will expire november next year or should I go for one year H1 extensions(as I heard from friends ) till I get the GC ?
you need not go to India to get your H1 extension stamping you can as well consider Canada, Mexico, Bahamas etc. you just need to cross the borders
3. Is there any stipulated time limit within which my wife has to apply for her SSN( we have not yet applied for it. )
There is no time line, however the sooner the better for many known reasons like Job, taxes, credit history to name a few
4. My passport is going to expire on December next year. Do I need to go to India for renewal or it can be done from here itself. If it can be done from here itself then when is the earliest to start that process ?( I will be happy if u could send some links that will guide me ).
again you can send your original Passport along with application and required documents to nearest Indian Embassy (make sure to check the nearest Indian Embassy facilitates Passport renewals before you send in your docs) also you can attend in person which most folks prefer
Thank you very much in advance.

Hi All,
I would greatly appreciate if you can respond to my query. I went for Visa Stamping Interview at New Delhi Consulate on 3rd Dec. I was given a pink slip /administrative processing and told by VO that i will get a response within 3 weeks, but it has been 6 weeks now and my case is still pending. I wanted to know
1. if I can withdraw my H-1B visa stamping and travel back on Advanced Parole ?
2. If I go back using my AP would my H-1B visa be invalid and would I have to use my EAD for working ?
3. My AP right now is back in USA with my wife. Is there any issue if she sends it by courier to me here in India ?
Please let me know at your earliest convenience,
Thanks

Dear Members,
One of the IV member recieved a phone call from Ombudsman office and is as follows.

I received a phone call (WOW!) from a sweet lady from CIS Ombudsman's office. I sent letters to his office and in the letter I mentioned my cell #. Anyway she wants a real person who got deniel.

Thanks lazycis for ur time to reply. is it must to fill I-9 form again to use with EAD even for the same employer. My attorney says continue as it is. mm.. confusing..
Btw, one more quesitons, for my son, I-485 status says Application rejected bcoz of incorrect fee (but attorney already sent correct fee !!) and I got I-131 AP for my son. Does that mean, USCIS accepted my sons I-485 application?.
Thanks lot again.

While eating dinner last night, I noticed a pitcher and glasses set in our china cabinet and decided to try a studio shot. I used one of my wife's black dresses, hung from the light fixture over our dining room table, as a backdrop. The glasses are sitting on a lens and various bowls and cups to raise them to the levels I wanted. I used white poster board on either side to reflect some light. Light source is a single flash unit bounced off of the ceiling. Thoughts on what I could do to make the shot better, aside from spending $2,000 to buy studio lighting equipment?
Thanks,
Gary
