We got H-1B 7th year extension approved (through Premium processing) at CSC on 06/12/2008. The extension of stay was also approved. We received the I-797C (courtesy copy) and travelled to India with it (along with all the relevant documentation for the H-1B visa stamping) at Chennai. We now realize that we need to I-797A and for some reason the company's legal dept did not receive this yet. The legal dept usually receives both I-797A and I-797C. The chennai consulate does not accept I-797C for stamping.
What are our options here. Though I-140 is approved and I-485 is pending for us, I had not applied for EAD/AP since I plan to continue with my current employer (agreed it was a mistake that I did not apply for the AP). I am with my family now here in Chennai and have to return to the US at the end of July. Will the USCIS send us a duplicate since we never received the original I-797A. The other option is to file I-824 but the processing time is crazy long. Is their expedited processing available for this due to the urgency of the situation? Please help with your valuable inputs.
Thanks. MP70
I-824 processing is heavily backlogged both in VSC and CSC - I guess, there is no PP or expedite option available for duplicate notices. Did you have valid and unexpired H1B stamp on your passport when you left US?

I e-filed EAD renewal. On the I-797 Notice of Action that they mailed me, the "Priority Date" field is blank. The same is true for my last EAD notice of action as well which I did not check last time. Is it normally blank?
Is anybody else in the same boat?

If they reject the application if a signature or something is missing. Can we refile again? Or do we wait for PD to become current again.

Hi
I am planning on using AC21 to switch employers. since it says that the new job should be in the same job classification, how do I know what classification my labor was approved in? I have a copy of the approval notice and under occupation it says consultant and it has the following code after it:
189167030. anybody knows what this code means or how I can find out my jobe code?

I have valid H1B visa in my passport.
Can I travel to India via London.
Can you please tell me what restrictions we have at london to travel. I heard some European countries have restrictions to travel.
Call airlines and British embassy and they should tell you the updated rule.

I believe, USCIS website was updated on Sep 21st 2009.
My Priority date is Jun 2006 and applied in EB3 category.
I got an email on Sep 22nd 2009 from USCIS saying "Document mailed to applicant". When I see online status, it is "Document production or Oath Ceremony".
I called twice USCIS to confirm it. But they are saying "According to online status the document was already sent to your current address".
I am in a situation to beleive it or not? to celebrate it or not.... :-( .....
And one more thing is "I got EAD before my marriage and I haven't added my wife to I485"?
If I get GC, how to add my wife to GC? is it possible? what is her status right now?
Thanks in advance...

How about working on an EAD in a part-time job while working full-time on your h1 sponsored job? I assume the h1 will not become invalid in this case because EAD is being used for the part time job.
Once you use your EAD , it mean you are forefitting your H1 , H1 is a status , u cant be in 2 status at the same time. Once the part time employer uses your EAD card to give you a job basically he has to submit that info to the INS and that will automatically invalidate your H1 status. This EAD which u received is for allowing you to work which the change of status from H1 to green card is taking place.

We should not mention who we are speaking to in a public forum. This will trigger all kinds of opposition flooding to whomever you mention, which will work against us
Join your state chapter, they will be able to help coordinate and get contacts and visits etc.
I agree - It's not a good thing. Moreover, it might push the wrong buttons if person from one state sends letters/faxes to the congressman from other state. I would not be surprised if the congressman would not care since you are not from his district. You can also check if you can send the letters/faxes to your state senators...

Friends,
A unique situation -
I am getting ready to apply for my wife's AOS (ROW). She has never used a last name on any legal documents, example birth certificate, passport.
Her H4 visa was processed with "FNU" - family name unknown .. Do I need a last name for filing her I-485? Can she get a GC with only her first name on it?
Or will they process it with FNU as last name...
Should i go to her embassy (Indonesia) and get her passport changed to my last name before applying for her 485? In that event, her H4 visa,passport and birth certificate will not match her passport..
Any thoughts on my situation?

It is legal to be paid for taking part in a clinical research study if you are on an H1B. The institution will provide you with a 1099 at the end of the year which you file with your tax return and of course declare the income.
In answer to the second posting not all research is experimental so the risks can be minimal if almost non existent and a very easy way to get a bit extra cash.

HI,
My EB2 perm labor was approved recently and thinking of filing I 140.
Trying to port my EB3 PD, 09/23/2003 to EB2.
I missed filing I 1485 for my wife in july 2007.
My question is if I go ahead and file I 140 premium for me , lets say it gets approved soon ,my dates will be current.Should I file I 485 for my wife then ?
What happens if they approve my I 485 before I file my wife's 485.
How long it took for you to get the labor aproved?. What are steps and duration it took?

Topics covered and time management was absolutely great ! Hardwork pays off.

Hi Gurus,
Here is my situation. Have H1B expiring on June 2008. Planning to Renew. I-140 approved last Month. I485 applied and pending for more than 180 days. Have EAD, AP.
Now - I am planning to switch to another job for Title , Hike. Not happy with the current company.
I have the following question :
1) If I switch,what will happen to my I-485 / I-140. do I need to reapply ? . do I lost my priority date.
2) If I go to India, what will happen to My 485/140. Can I change AOS to consular processing.
Please advise.
1. Use Ac21
2. Are you going to India for a visit or long time? you need to come before ur AP expires and get a new one(If H1 is not valid)
Otherwise you can take a vacation on H1.
For Cp you have to withdraw your 485 application and refile your application.

As far as I know employer sponsorship is not required for EB-1 EA case; not sure why you had to file I-140 for this ...........
EB-1 EA does not need labor certification, but still needs I-140.

Looks like a tough little guy to capture. The way things are lined up, I think you could successfully clone out the branches in front of him. I'd leave the others. Any more sharpening would over-sharpen thetail. Although you could copy the layer, apply more sharpening to the layer, then mask out everything except the parts of the head you'd like to change.
