Hi,
I am Planning to go TORONTO for my 2 H1B visa stamping.In my first experience my application was under administrative processing for 6 months, but since I have AP and EAD I came back,then when they called my Passport was about to expire in 5 Months so with my new passport it went into administrative processing for 2 more weeks then I was asked to come down to toronto and I got my H1-B
Now here are my concerns specially how to prove
1) Employer employee scenario( what docs will prove VO, I work as a IT consultant at third party have my H1B approved till 2013, visa is expired,Vendor is ready to give letter , client does not have this policy )
2) My project end date is feb 2011, what if he asks me what will i do after that, how to convince?
3) will my previous administrative processing triigers for admin processing again ? I heard that once you went to admin processing after that any time you go for stamping you will go through admin processing?
4) Will use of Advanc parole (in case of admin processing) TO come to US in anyway cause issues when admin processing is done and visa is to be issued?
5) Is it safe to go to HomecountrY(Hyderabad,India) than toronto since I dont have US Degree but I did study MS for 3 semesters yet to complete
6)If I Marry and wants to use AP to enter but work on H1 status, can I still have my wife go for H4 Interview with my expired VISA but unexpired I-797 and she comes on H4 and I come back using AP and work on H1 status?

Its a shame that they still promote the 50,000 GC visas for the so called "diversity" program. And yet don't care about the 100's of thousands folks who are legally here and aspiring to assimilate with the American society and paying huge taxes (H1's do pa more taxes then citizens).

Hello All,
Need you guys expert advise on a problem that I have just found.
I was on L1 since 2007 and in 2008 got my H1B visa done. Since I was in the US during september and october 2008, I changed my company who held my H1B as of 1st October,2008. I dont have an H1B stamp on my passport as I have not been out of the US.
It was only yesterday that I realised I had a I-797B approval notice, which from what I read yesterday, means that I have a petition approved but without I-94.
Now my L1 I-94 on my passport is valid till November 2010.
Need your help to understand if I have an issue here for the fact that I have worked with my employer who holds my H1B for the past 9 months.
If so what are the challenges that I have and the solutions for them.
Also has anyone been in the same situation.
Would greatly appretiate your help in this.
It is necessary to get more information from you in order to give you a specific answer. If possible please call me or e-mail me in detail with exact dates.

some retaliations (for wistleblowers) based on race, ethnicity etc. are illegal. however if it was just because they didn't agree with your behavior or business related thoughts then they are perfectly okay firing you.
saying that usually the onus is on the company to prove that it was not because of any of the protected category (race, ethnicity etc.)
-----------------------------------------
I am not a lawyer. do not take this as a legal advice.
generally all retaliations on whistleblowers are illegal.
retaliation based on race, ethnicity are discriminative and can be sued!

Most of us know its surely a tiring and long process to get visa dates in Hindi for Delhi embassy. I tried for about a month before I got it. Here is what I observed and find very important for anyone taking Hindi visa dates in Delhi:
(a) Delhi embassy mostly adds new Hindi dates every two weeks. Specially when the english dates are about to expire, because Hindi dates are expired/not available most of the time :)
(b) These dates are added on either Thursday or Friday.
(c) Most chances are on Thursday/Friday morning or noon. That is from 10am IST to around 2-3pm IST.
(d) During this time, keep checking every 5 minutes. This is because once they release dates, I do not know, but the dates are gone in 10 minutes flat !!!
(e) Keep your information already filled and saved in vfs database, otherwise no chance that one can complete all DS 156/157 forms in those crucial 10/15 minutes.
(f) Good luck!

Apparently, FP and approvals go in parallel. Checked my case status online, and all 3 of our cases got approved today. The status was set to Decision. I guess it won't go to card production until my wife's FP is done, or maybe my daughter and I will get the card before my wife. Waiting for the snail mail to confirm, seems like an anticlimax after waiting for so many years.

I will be going to a USCIS roundtable on customer service on Sept 23.
I am being told that this roundtable is with other USCIS customers facilitated by USCIS staff. From what I know, the focus will be on customer service.
Did anybody else sign up for this?
If you have any comment/feedback/experience related to customer service that you want to share, please contact me.

I think if the current H1B is expired, he has to apply transfer from India to a different company and go for VISA again ....
http://www.murthy.com/news/n_h1bcan.html
What Happens to my H1B if I am Abroad?
�MurthyDotCom
Questions arise on the topic of traveling abroad, or come from those who are outside the United States. An individual might have had an H1B filed by an employer, but for one reason or another, never entered the U.S. or worked for the employer. One might have been in the U.S. as an H1B employee at some point, but then left the U.S. to live abroad. People such as these ask about getting their H1Bs transferred from companies where they either never worked or are no longer working. Since there is no transfer, there is no concern about this issue. If one is abroad, the new company must file a new H1B petition. There is no pay stub problem in connection with the petition for a person living abroad, since there is no possibility of an extension of H1B status when the individual is not in the United States. (Lack of proper pay records may be an issue at the consulate in connection with an H1B visa application for one who was in the U.S. as an H1B employee, but was not being paid the required prevailing wage.) The H1B employee would need a new visa, if the earlier H1B visa stamp had expired.

I'm in the process about to use "AC21"
Original employer filed I40 under "electrical engineer" :: SOC Code 17-2071 (approved)
have EAD but never used.
Inside the job description there are entitled strong software background - job duties included programming and software development also. As a requirement a 3year of Software Engineering experience was entitled also.
Situation: Laid off, but received a job offer letter. BUT the position is "software engineer" job code is some 15-XXXX.
Detailed job description/duties will be the same;
Old employer/layer is not revoking anything, willing to help.
Will this stand if they request an EVL or later on the road?
According to my research they not strict about the job codes they more go by the job description and duties.
I'm sure lots of folks are in the same situation, please advice.
SOC Code need not to be included in the EVL. So as long as there is substantial match in the job description you should be fine

A key figure (http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&ned=us&q=hastert&btnG=Search+News) in the latest political drama was a key figure in immigration debate (http://news.google.com/archivesearch?q=hastert+immigration&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&btnG=Search+Archives). I wish he makes way and hopefully some moderate does something for the immigrant community.
Just curious. Do you know of any reason why he might make way for someone else?
