THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH FOR PRECISE REPLY BUEHLER but am I not within my legal right to work for any hospital branch because they are all with one name.
My final question would be YES I was told that I will have a new ID and new payroll number and a separate paycheck but what can be done to rectify this situation. Like do they have to amend the H1B petition(mine is a non-cap hospital--- a charity hospital).
My H1B stipulates that I am a full-timer with 40 hrs per week but starting from next week it is going to be 32 sometimes and 40 hrs some weeks as we are not seeing many patients into our hospital due to the economy,jobs etc.
What is the solution. Do I have to move to a different job or can there be a solution to work for the same company (in different branches)
at the yearend is it single w2? or two w2 from same employer ID? Your ID might be different But employer ID is important.

But he can not loose our hopes, remember this, for the american people legal inmmigration is Green Card holders, if you are a temporary worker is like they are telling you hurry up pack your things and get back to your place, and the congress will try to work legal and illegal immigration at the same time, probably they will increase visas, but anyways the point is who is making noise in the streets? illegals and their supporters. In my case i contact my senator and my congressman every month asking to please help with comprehensive immigration reform, to help us to create legislation on name check so we do not have to wait years, and well all of them are republicans but all of them are immigrants so they know our pain.

She should enter in the US on H4, for which you will need to keep your H1 valid at least until the time of her entry.
Correction: He has to maintain the H1 even after his wife enters the USA in H4 status. If he looses H1B status by any means, his wife's H4 is invalid and she will be out of status. So, he has to maintain H1B status until his wife files AOS/485.

Basically the receipt notice we will get soon would have a 'received date' and a 'notice date'.
I read in another forum that 90-day count starts from the received date.
I am not sure though!

Everyone make sure to send a check to IV while mailing documents of 485 to USCIS. If you forget IV now, you will come running back to IV after a couple of years while your 485 sits at USCIS and keeps hatching eggs.

I have not informed uscis about the change although I updated my address in their website. As regards AC 21, if I am ready to file it my current employer said they will be ready to support it but I haven't started that process yet.
Ajay, did you receive 3 years of H1 extension? I am in my 5th year of initial H1B. wondering if I will receive 3 years extension when I file for H1B transfer with an approved 140. I am changing jobs using AC21 to join a new employer.
Let me know your exp. Did you also get new I-94 attached with H1B ext approval notice?

Hi, I'm a citizen of India got married to an Indian citizen in U.S in 2004 and got the marriage license from a county (It is important to note that a marriage license is valid only in the County in which it is issued). We did not marry under foreign act. Will this be considered as a valid marriage as per Indian marriage act? Please advice.
We are yet to get married in India. We are planning to apply I-485 with martial �single� independently because we can�t apply as married due to family reasons.
Will this cause any problem during background check?

Hi
I am thinking my "living the american dream" will be a dream only.
True. Its just a dream. You work on something for 20 years and get a GC at 45. What are you getting after that. Just continue your dream for another 20 to 30 years and call it a day.
If you get it by 25, you have some years to go hit something for your life.
I stopped worrying on GC and started living on tasks that help my family. I have a job now. If lost, I will go for another job and another and another in India/Europe/Australia/so and so. But surely not going to die or go to hospital for depression.

Hi,
Quick question here. Suppose the h1 receipt was not attached and the application was already sent by july2. Can we send in a copy of H1 extension receipt now ?
My h1b visa expired in april 2007 and extension was filed in feb 2007. I94 also expired in april 2007. I am thinking as long as u apply aos application within 180 days of being out of status for any reason we are in status.
Correct me if im wrong and add any info that you may feel is relevant..
Anxiously waiting for reply

I have filed for 140/485 EB3 on July 2nd. I am planning to start a EB2 process and carry over the EB3 Priority date to the new application. I have a few questions
1. My thinking is the process works something like this. I start a new PERM for EB2 while my EB3 140 is pending. After both the EB3 I140 and EB2 PERM are approved, I file for EB2 140 putting in a request to carry my old PD over. Is this correct?
2. Do I need to be with my GC sponsoring company until both EB3 140 and EB2 PERM are approved? If I use AC21 (after EB3 140 approval), will I still be able to interfile?
Thanks in advance

It's not going anywhere. And I don't think it will go anywhere. They have never mentioned it being discussed or voted.
Does anyone know what is going on with Sen Cantwell's amendment (1249) that was favorable to high skilled immigration?

A friend of mine who has a bachelor's degree from India applied for her labor through PERM under EB2 category, which was approved. This was done based on the attorney's advice. Later, when the I-140 was to be submitted, the attorney advised that they should file I-140 under EB3 as the employee just had a bachelor's degree and he thought that they would get an RFE or will not probably be able to justify her qualifications for an EB2 category. At that time he also mentioned that, once the I-140 was approved, they could go ahead and submit I-485 application as though it was an EB2 case based on the approved labor. Now that I-140 is approved under EB3 category, he is going back on his words and telling that since I-140 was approved under EB3 category, they should file I-485 as though it is an EB3 application. There is a vast difference in priority dates between EB2 & EB3 categories and this is not helping the problem. Would it be okay to apply I-485 under EB2 category based on the approved labor (EB2) or should one apply I-485 under EB3 based on the approved I-140 (EB3)? Anyone who has had any experience or has any information in this regard, please advise. Or did the attorney mess up first time and he is finding an easy way to fix the problem by going the EB3 route? I sometimes wonder if these attornies really know what they are talking about or they just out there to make money at the expense of innocent people like us.

Do not use some one's profile, if you want answer from any one. To make a new profile will take less than 10 minutes. If you don't have 10 minutes, then how other people spend their time to answer your questions. You want free advice, but you are not willing to join IV. This all shows the mindset of the people.
Any way using some one's username and password is highly illegal. Ask IV moderator for permission to use some body's account.
guys..it is very unfortunate that you felt that im here to make sensation by creating stories out of my head..!
the qn raised afew months ago was my friend who had this profile in this community..she gave me the link of the response, and also asked me to use her profile in future as she seldom use this community herself..in my situation, when we are going through lot of stress, i did not find time to create a new profile or update the current profile...i hope its not a major crime!!
today i checked the profile page, and i did not see anything relevant information that i can add (most of it is GC application related, which im not dong). the only thing i could do is remove the state of residence of my friend!
i cannot reveal my identity or share my personal information in a public forum other than my location which is India.
My employer had filed a civil complaint, saying i have broken the contract which i signed with them that i will work with them for 18 months!
if you do not feel comfortable helping a person without knowing the identity(i dnt see anybody in this forum using their real name), it is totally fine.

I have my first GC interview next month. I had a DUI few years back that I forgot to mention in the 485 app as I thought this was a traffic related offense. I want to know what are my options now? My lawyer suggests I file for some kind of waiver and suggests I take an attorney with me to the interview. She also asked me to get court certified copies of the conviction and that I completed all the required tasks assigned by the court.
Is this going to affect my GC in anyway? I need some guidance here.
Did the interview request from USCIS specifically mention the DUI?
Here's some information that might help you understand your situation better: http://www.californiadui.com/articles/immigration-issues-of-dui.php
I think it's not the prior DUI conviction, but the failure to disclose the prior DUI conviction that poses a potential problem. However, this is not something that cannot be taken care of with the help of an experienced attorney. There are numerous folks who have found themselves in a similar situation and have gone on to successfully get their GC. I agree with the advice provided by the gentleman above.
