Mr Desi - Here is my take on this. Most 485 questions will come up at the time of applying Visa stamp. The consulates dont like the fact that you filed 485.
However, since you have done it legally (like everyone else), my take is that, canadian consulates are more likely to NOT make an issue out of it, unlike Indian consulates. However as always an element of risk is there. Indian consulates are very high risk when you have filed 485.
In case of port of entry, I recently entered US on H1 visa despite having 485 and AP. My wife used her AP at the same time of entry together with me. The officer asked me, "why dont you also use your AP?" I said, I have AP, but I want to use H1 visa if possible. And he said, ok, no problem, its your wish.
So again, depends on the officer you bump into. Both me an my wife had no issue at POE.
However, Mumbai consulate issued her 221(g) for some inexplicable reason.
I would like to know what is the risk if someone filed I-485...is it because he has two labor and I-140 or generic. I couldnt understand your point...?

I guess all the EB2 june filers might get approvals rather than EB3 June..right??
Has anyone in the EB3 category (june 2007 filers) got any approvals??
Cheers!!
I agree with you. EB2 filers should not have any problem after USCIS solves all this receipting mess. Any one who filed in June and is already approved must have been pre-adjudicated, which means both name check and finger printing must have happened before the new fiscal year began. Anyway, from our perspective and not USCIS'S, EB3 has a long way to go.
My details:
PD= 03/2005
I-140: Approved
RD: June 26, 2007
FP: Sept.8, 2007
EAD: approved in 44 days

but unless someone personally recommends it is difficult to know which ones are good. even large well-known firms have made many errors, even after charging high fees
You are 100% right. Choosing an attorney is always kind of a gamble.
That shouldn't be but it is the reality. From my own experience, an attorney is as good as the job he does for you.
You can find an attorney who has worked wonders for many people and...
he screws up your application (that happened to me :mad: :eek: ).

GC Struggle, I am not sure about your comments on "reactivated by filing an amendment with USCIS" to get back to H1B status after being employed with EAD. As per my understanding once you had utlized EAD then if one wants to go back to H1B then it is like a NEW H1B petition and NOT just claiming your old H1B. If possible could you pls provide a link to official document stating the approach suggested in your post.

Hello,
One of the clients is not considering EAD as a valid document to enter their facilities. Funny thing is their security team are ok if you have valid visa and I94 but not EAD.
I think this is more of ignorance about EAD.
Can some provide doucumentation which says discrimination of EAD is violation of Law? or some thing that says EAD is a valid document to work adn stay in the country.
You can show them I-9 form where it list EAD as acceptable document for proof of employment eligibility.

Now they want to visit client place for the H1b people.
There are only 415,000 H1-b holders in USA.
And number of employed labor in USA are 144 million. (as per DOL)
And we form 0.28% of the workforce in the entire USA.
Why the hell they are whining about 0.28% ??
Can anybody tell me if i am wrong with numbers here?

05/07/2009: DHS Reportedly Stepping Up Enforcement of the H-1B Program Including Work Site Visits
Report indicates that DHS Security Secretary Janet Napolitano told at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing yesterday that her agency was stepping up its enforcement of the H-1B program. She reportedly said that over the last month the department has added fraud prevention tactics that were not being used previously in the H-1B program. Those measures include visits to work sites.
---------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------
Statistics of H-1B Visa Holders in the U.S. and Reach of H-1B Cap in Recent Years
Total H1-B Visa Holders in the U.S. in Recent Fiscal Years
2008: 409,619
2007: 461,730
2006: 431,853
2005: 407,418
2004: 386,821
Reach of H-1B Cap in Recent Fiscal Years
2010: Still Open, and Going and Going, as of 04/11/2009! May be it will record the statistics between 2007 and 2008.
2009: 1 day
2008: 2 days
2007: 56 days
2006: 132 days
2005: 184 days
2004: 323 days
The total H-1B holders steadily increased until 2008 when it dropped substantially. Probably it was affected by FY 2007 July Visa Bulletin fiaso which opened the flood gate for EB-485 filings with no visa number cut-off date in July 2007, accompanied by massive issuance of EAD allowing some of the H-1Bs in this stream to drop out ofH-1B status and use EAD, most of which were issued beginning from November 2007. There being no such event in 2009, presumedly the total numbe of H-1B holders in 2009 might have increased. Considering the fact that every year a same new number of H-1B holders are added to the total pool, a large number of H-1Bs have kept extending their H-1B status on and on. Additionally, the fact that overall the total H-1B holder numbers remained steady may indicate that more or less of from 85,000 to 100,000 numbers of H-1B are added to the pool and about the same number moved out of the pool, mostly into green card holder pool, adding flesh blood ofvaluable workers to the main stream of this country. It Ain't Interesting?

I guess it is an approval. In the cases where officer needs an approval from senior officer they issue N-652. That is standard practice.
Thanks number30
Any idea how much time do they generally take to decide on N652.
Thanks again

My H1-B expires in Oct-2009. So my wife's H4 visa & I-94 are valid till Oct-2009.
I am applying for my H1 extension. I am attaching my wife's H4, I-94 with the extension.
She may have to go to INDIA in June and come back within a month. As she gets a new I-94 which will be valid for 3-4 months till Oct-2009 & her old I-94 is sent for extension, do i have to do anything else after that?
How does it work? Did anyone went through similar scenario?
Please advice.
Thanks.

Here is my situation: I was on my 6th year of the h1b visa (I had about 3 months left of valid visa) when I left the country in January 2010 to live abroad...In August 2010 I came back to the US on a tourist visa and I applied to get the 3 months I had left on my H1b in November.
After waiting for over 4 months, I received the approval notice from immigration for the h1b valid only for 1 day!! (4/20/11-4/21/11)...I received the approval notice on the mail on 4/23, 2 days after the visa was valid...so basically, by the time I received the notice in the mail, I was already out of status.
If I apply for an extension this week, do you think that they will approve my 7th year extension or they might deny it based on the fact that I applied after my H1b visa expired? If they deny it, what are my options to stay in the country?
What would the employer gain by applying H1B if only 3 months left?

I am wondering if there is any legal ground to force DOS to disclose visa usage each month. Obviously DOS has been playing this number game in a super conservative approach, which will definitely cause large amount of numbers to be wasted this year.

Get a non-availability certificate from the local municipal office and submit it to USCIS..on a safer side..
HTH,
Or get the birth cert from Indian Embassy in US... They'll issue it based on her passport..
takes about 2-4 weeks... unless you can go and get it personally...

hi there is a clause "same or similar field", so as per shiela murthy, ron gotcher and prashanthi reddy, as long as you are in a IT related job its ok, you cannot go from IT to healthcare or cross fields.
so you are safe.
But find out from your attorney if it is mandatory to file Ac21, because as long as i know, some attorneys say not to file it, as it just causes more confusions. But find out if it is legal not to file Ac21.
