Hi,
Need quick suggestion:
Company A filed for GC. Labor and I-140 was approved. I-485 was filed during July 2007.
I changed employer in June 2009; replied to RFE and filed AC21 in July 2009.
I came to know that my GC sponsring company is going to close the company soon. My current immigration attorney is suggesting that if that happens; and if INS came to know that GC sponsring company is closing down, they will revoke my I-140.
Is it true? I thought after AC21 is invoked; whatever happens to GC sponsring company, it will not impact my GC application in any way.
Please advice.

Thank you, another question in relation to eb2 progressive experience. Can vacation days be counted or included in the 5 years of experience? Or does it have to be a total of 5 years of work days, and, vacation excluded? Many thanks

i did it myself... highly recommend it... unless you have good budget or expect the money to be made back real quick...
in most states, first step is to file the articles of incorporation, once articles are approved, you may have to select a board (if you did not set it up in the articles), record the inc with your county recorder, register the inc with IRS (for fein), open a bank account, if your business is retail, register with the state, get a state id number and thats it...
the long process is making all the decisions... who should be your registered agent, how many shares, what initial equity, what address, who are the board members, what purpose of the company etc...
have fun...
I have heard that it is pretty easy and straight forward to incorporate a business using legalzoom.com. I have not tried that myself..

Hi,
I don't see these forms listed on http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis , in the top menu "Immigration Forms".
I highly appreciate if anyone has updates related to I-131 form changes.
Thanks
Boby

My wife went to US consulate in Kuwait for her H4 stamping on Feb 18th. During the interview she was informed that some administrative process on their end was not completed and asked to pay for the DHL service and was told that she would be contacted by DHL who would collect her passport, get the visa stamped and return it to her. She was also told that it should not take more than 2 weeks.. On her application form, the interviewer wrote NO PIM.
Since then it has been a harrowing time for us. It has been 6 weeks, since then and we still have not heard anything. We have tried contacting the consulate using phone, email and at times my wife personally went to the consulate but she was not allowed to enter. We do not hear anything back from them.
I can understand a couple of weeks, but now its more than 6 weeks and counting. We have already cancelled her and my son's flight tickets once. We have rescheduled my son's doctor's appointment. This delay is having a domino effect on our lives.
My question is - Is there anything that we can do to expedite this process.
Thank you looking at this thread

My question is, to do a change of status from H1 to F1, will they ask my recent pay stubs? Please reply
No but they will ask for other things to prove you can support yourself here in F-1

I just talked to my lawyer again, and he told me that I�m overreacting! He kept saying that this is not a big deal at all for having the wrong background on the petition letter submitted to USCIS. He said that the new petition letter, I-129 and documents do not need to be resubmitted to USCIS. My lawyer also said that he can simply solve the problem by sending me the new petition letter. Accordingly, I can then bring this new letter to the consular for the visa interview instead of going through the resubmission. He also said that there is nothing to be worry about PIMS or anything. Could you please advise what to do? Pls help. Thank you very much.

It depends on how many cases that will be pending approval on October after the surge of applications this July and August.
I think it wouldn't be current for some countries specifically India and China.

I am bumping this poll up again so that it gets more visibility now as many folks are trying to check for VB updates.
I believe there are a chunk of folks in option number '3' or '4'. This poll may help to understand how significant the numbers are. Also if anyone in that boat, add your inputs.

Labor substitution is going to be removed by USCIS and very appropriately. So it is risky business.

Thanks for the suggestions. I called in the National Service Center and put in a request to expedite the case. Got an email that I can try to visit the local ASC and see if they can collect the biometric. We visited the local ASC today and the were kind enough to collect the Biometric. I hope we get the AP before the departure date..

The town we are in only has a community college only, my spouse is an engineer and they have nothing to offer... Small town restricts her chances to be hired on H1 too.
Biggest reason for taking up the new job is to be able to access the above options.....:(

My situation is tricky here. I would really appreciate any inputs.
My six years validity for H-1 B will be complete in Mid Dec 2007. I filed my Labor on March 5th in Atlanta. As you know the ATLANTA center is really really slow and I am still waiting on my Labor approval decision. I thought of applying 140 through Premium Processing. Now USCIS suspended premium processing for 140s. My question is:
Whay will be my situation if my Labor gets approved and 140 is pending as of dec 2007 as the LC is filed with less than 365 days remaining on H1 validity? Will I be out of status or can I apply for 7th year extension.
Please guide me through the process and any scenarios. Thank you in advance.
It was intially hard to predict when USCIS would resume PP for I-140. But now that they have stopped taking in 485 applications, they should be in a position to estimate their work load and provide guidance soon.
Thanks,
Jayant

Surely you can afford to pay $95 a year at ipowerweb.com for that. There are even cheaper deals than that around. It doesn't cost that much.

H1B Visa Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
The United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) recently updated their list of Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) approved schools (http://www.ice.gov/doclib/sevis/pdf/ApprovedSchools.pdf). The schools listed have all been certified to participate in the program.
The program allows foreign students interested in obtaining an education in the United States to complete a visa petition, pay the required fee, and attend a U.S. College or University.
Interested Foreign students: There is a process in obtaining a student visa, but it is not a difficult one. The student must first obtain Form I-20 from the U.S. College or University from which he/she intends to enroll, pay the required visa fee (Form I-901) and contact a local U.S. Consulate/Embassy to schedule an interview. The SEVP procedures differ among U.S. Consulates/Embassies; contact your U.S. Consulate/Embassy NOW to determine its particular procedure on applying for a visa before planning for the interview.
Interested Schools: There is a separate process to obtain F & M Certification. Authorized school officials must obtain and complete Form I-17. An overview of the SEVP Certification process can be found on the ICE website . If approved, the school will be certified and allowed to issue Form I-20 to qualifying foreign students.
If you need assistance or an explanation of the SEVP, please contact our office (http://www.mvplg.com/contact.htm) to schedule a consultation.

Here is the sequences of Events(BE + MBA computer systems)+5 yrs experience when filed labor:
Labor Filed Date: Oct 3rd 2003
Labor Approved Date: Sept 15th 2006
EB2 140 Applied: Oct 30th 2006
485 Filed (self & wife): July 2nd 2007, Receipt Date: Sept 9th 2007.
485 Finger Print for both(biometrics): Oct 4th 2007
EB2 140 Query (RFE): Dec 5th 2007
"The labor certification accompanying this petition specifies that a bachelor's degree and 2 yrs of experience is an acceptable combination
for the position offered. Therefore, the job offer portion of the labor certification does not demonstrate that the job requires a professional holding an advanced degree or the equivalent.
Consiquently, in accordance with the regulation cited above, the petition cannot be approved.(Title 8, Code of Federal Regualtions part 103.2(b)(8)."
In between these dates, my H1 renewal (for 8th year) that was pending since sept 2007 was put in Premium.
EB3 140 Applied: Jan 10th 2008
In between this dates... EAD & Advance Parole (I-131) for my wife was applied and approved.
EB3 140 Approved: Mar 17th 2009. But the priority date was diff on the approval notice(Aug 2004) which has given to Labor department Chicago for rectification.
Should I go for another labor with new designation EB2 which I can port to above priority date or wait till EB3 becomes Oct 2003/Aug 2004 based on my current EB3 approval I-140?
Also will the existing I-485 pending is fine or should I file new one for EB3?
Thanks in Advance.
