All:
Your advice in this case would be very helpful. Consider the following scenario-
1: I am currently on an approved H1 extension (3 years) based on approved I-140 and I-485 filed (with dates not being current).
2: What happens to my H1 if the I-485 gets denied?
I guess in short the question is-
What happens to an H1B (based on 3 year extension derived from approved I-140 & pending I-485 with dates not being current). Does I-485 denial result in the H1B also being invalid?

"Are we worth pursuing?" This is what we need to be asking Congress...before Congress tells us that as high-skilled legal workers we must spend up to 10 years waiting for an immigrant visa (Green Card)m or just go home, they need to see if we are worth pursuing or not. Evidently Congress believes that at least some immigrants are worth pursuing, as evidenced by the free-for-all DV Lottery, where 50,000 Green Cards are randomly given out yeary to people from all over the world (except India, China, Mexico and the Philippines). These free-for-all visas bring 50,000 new people to the U.S. who can come here even if they don't have a job waiting for them, thus they end up taking American jobs (in convenience stores, selling Avon products door-to-door, as car mechanics, whatever)...and then there is us! The highly-skilled people, in the U.S. on LEGAL visas. We are doctors, engineers, business leaders, in positions where no American was found for our jobs (as evidenced by the grueling "Labor Certification" process) we pay taxes, contribute to the U.S. through patents, start-ups, community work, and yet we are abused, drowned in red tape and told to wait for up to a decade for a Green Card.
Congress needs to decide if we highly-skilled contributors, who are very few compared to the overall pool of immigrants are "worth pursuing" (read the article in the link at the top), or at least whether we are AS worth pursuing as DV lotto winners such as car mechanics from Belarus, or Avon ladies from Bolivia (with the difference that they were given a free ride and allowed to take jobs away from Americans, and us PhDs and Doctors are forced to be certified that we haven't and won't take any job from an American, pay 1000s of dollars and wait for up to a decade)
Congress! Before you kick out your curent and future Nobel prize winners (We highly-skilled legals!!!!) end the free-for-all DV Lotto! Then you can kick the rest of us out and bask in Nativism....by the way, did you know that there are Americans working in other countries too? (So why shouldn't there also be at least SOME highly-skilled foreign immigrants in the U.S. along the same logic????) It's part of globalization! Wow you didn't know right?

Generally it is little difficult to sponsor a GC through one's own business. USCIS wants to know if it is a legitimate business, with revenues, employees, contracts etc
My attorney told me the same thing. USCIS wants to know if it is a legitimate business. However, if you wish to start/buy a business. Approach SCORE / SBA at your county. Make a business plan. Plan it out with recruiting employees at a later stage. After some time apply for green card. You never know you would be able to make a succesful business.
I went through some of the process but it does not suit me so i backed off.
Please update your information.

That's an eternal open question all of us have here :-)
To be honest, I don't know, but based on the what I read, I gathered that it is the notice date. But the bottomline is - we all know - even USCIS knows - ITS RANDOM PROCESSING!!
Thanks

Hello gurus,
need little help from you guys. Right now i am on H1b.
I am about to file my Family based I-485, I-130, I-765, I-131. on all these forms they are asking for A# ( Alien Registration Number).
I was on F1 visa before. so i have one expired EAD card which i got during my OPT in 2005. this card has a A#.
so should i put this A# on all forms( I-485,I-130,I-765,I-131) or leave it blank.???
H1bdude1
I believe that A# is like SSN and one person can have only one number. To the best of my knowledge you should use the same A# on all those applications.
However, I have known people who had more than one A# assigned, but they were then advised to contact USCIS to merge those files. I would think, it would make sense to use the same A#.
Again, it would be of great help if you can clarify this with an attorney, or someone else on this forum who is more knowledgeable than me.
Good Luck.

My experience is that even with the "1/focal length" rule (or maybe it should be "1/(focal length x crop factor)") is a bit optimistic with these long tele shots. Maybe it can work if you have really good technique and a sturdy tripod but I like to use a much shorter shutter time if possible.

Thank you. I will give it a try.
so my question is, AP is needs be to on hand and how do they know that she has it on hand since it was approved and sent on Apr 8th according to the email.
We can even say yes she had it but lost it over there so i mail her the document. right?
Once AP is approved, you can travel and have someone here send it to you. I have personally done that without a problem. I left the country and a friend of mine brought the document. A couple of my other friends followed my example, travelled without the document in hand and none of us have had a problem.

I did check the USCIS website for the July 17, 2007 (reinstating the July Visa Bulletin) and July 23, 2007 (about I-485 fees) notices that are specified on murthy.com link you provided, but did not find them. So if any of you know how and where to get them from please let me know. Appreciate your help. Thank you.

If the govt can lobby for nuke bill, why they cannot do it for techs?
Govt well know that a big chunk of money is gonna come from NRIs and even bigger will come from future NRIs. To sustains India's growth they need it big time.
In my opinion it would be a good idea to seek Govt of India's help..
thx

Good idea Lecter. A bit like remembering to tell your wife how she looks (caution advised) I have no problem with posting comments. I absolutely love to stare at the beautiful images on this site. From my novice perspective, they are just about all in the impressive to brilliant range. I get a lot of inspiration & ideas from you guys. The webmasters stunning sports & concert photography. Paul Popes absolutely knock out, whatever he does stuff. Don & Pressmans outstanding digital darkroom magic (Pressmans Exmoor phots are out of this world) Lecters I WANT TO BE THERE RIGHT NOW! phots. Bob Gleasons super sports images & across the board versatility. I particularly take note of Bobs stuff because I know he hasn't been shooting that long, so his learning curve has been pretty meteoric.
By the Lecter, how much does it cost you to get 'noticed'? (Couldn't wait to get to that bit)
"They can because they think they can"

Started this thread just to encourage us after oct bulletin:
We know that unless a bill is passed (SKIL), retrogression issue cant be solved. It is not an easier task to accomplish but a task that needs more courage and efforts. Each time when we see the visa bulletin with no movement in dates, we feel more depressed but we should always remember this, no matter how many times we fall or pushed back, our goal is to get up and move with more strength. Now everyone is going through tough phases of life in one way or the other. This is not new for us, we have dealt this type of problems before.
As people say: "good things will happen to those who wait". Our team efforts (in IV), our hard work and prayers will definitely move the mountains. All we need now is faith and patience so that we can put focussed efforts to pass this SKIL bill by end of this year. Soon we will find ways to achieve this.

I thought once your EAD gets approved then you H1 Visa is not longer valid.
You could keep EAD and H1 together active?? Any experts, could you please throw some light?
Yes, you can keep EAD and H1 at same time..

Hi
I had filed my I-485 in Jun 2007 my PD is Nov 2005 and was called for an interview at the local USCIS office in Feb 2009. My I-485 was pre-approved, now I am about to apply for AP renewal.
The question I have is which service center do I mail in my AP renewal docs? My original application was filed in Nebraska. So do I file it there or send it to service center in Missouri? Can any one who has similar experience post the answer to this?
Thnks

Hi guys,
my h1 got approved on 21st of april 2009.
Bolt,
Could you please update this post? Per the post, I got some points:
1. Your H1B transfer denied and your I-94 card is expired
2. You filed H1B transfer again using premium processing
3. You got approval
Did you get a new I-94 card since your I-94 is expired?
Do you need to leave the USA for stamp?

Few more days to go now. In fact its already over. No More time to prepare
I140 application and send by July 16th.
Yes they should have stopped long back with perm introduction as it was no longer needed after perm.
We cant prove they are selling it.
P.S: I am totally against law breaking Indian Consultancy companies, and urge every employee to sue them for arny law they break.
