My spouse and I are currently on H1-B and we applied for EAD and I-485 with my spouse as the primary applicant through his company.
Do I have to wait for 180 days before I change employers and start using the EAD (since I am the secondary applicant)? Or can I use my EAD as soon as I get it?
Thank you!

Hi,
I am planning to apply my Green card. However I am a bit confused which category will I fall to ? EB2 or EB3 ?
As per my job requirement details, it is as below:
i ) Bachelor degree in technology related field.
In the detailed experience seeked, it says as below:
i) Five years of experience with installing, maintaining servers.
ii) Three years of practical experience in routing and network security.
I have more than 5 years of working experience (which they seeked) before I started this job.
Under which category will it fall under, EB2 or EB3 ?
Thank you
Looks EB2 to me.
Is it the biggest networking firm which has the prominent law firm thats sponsoring?

Hello All,
My priority date becomes current as of 1'st Oct 2009... I had created an Service Request 2 weeks back to check with NSC if it has been preadjudicated or not...
Here is what i received as an email response to the Service Request today-
The status of this service request is:
The processing of your case has been delayed. A check of our records establishes that your case is not yet ready for decision, as the required investigation into your background remains open.
Until the background investigation is completed, we cannot move forward on your case. These background checks are required to be completed on all applicants who apply for the immigration benefit you are seeking. We will make every effort to make a decision on this case as soon as the background checks are complete. If you do not receive a decision or other notice of action from us within 6 months of this letter, please contact us by calling our customer service number provided below.
Questions:
1. What am i supposed to do now?
2. I remember seeing a Memo back in Feb 2008 which stated that 485 can be approved after waiting for 6 months for background check and not more than that.
Please let me know if anyone else has received a similar reply in Sep 2009... Any thoughts are highly appreciated...
Thanks for all your help... These forums and community has been a great help all along!

H1, H4 (spouse) and H4 (kid) living happily.
File 485 and gets EAD/AP.
H1 doesn't use EAD.
H4 uses EAD and hence looses H4 status.
I-485 is denied.
Now, my understanding is that spouse has to go out of country and come back again on H4.
What about the kid?
When does the kid loose his/her H4 status? (When both mother and father use EAD)?
This is just my thought, I would believe when the father (or whoever was on H1) uses EAD, the subsequent H4's would get canceled and their status would be Pending AOS. If 485 is denied, and if H1 person has not used EAD, then both son and mother can re enter on H4.

I am on H1B for the past 8 years. EB3 2003 Jan /140 approved long back. Has a valid EAD but never used. I recently changed my employer and the new employer did H1B transfer rather than using EAD.The company lawyer submitted an AC21 application along with the H1b transfer. Due to some family reasons ,the new job seems to be not going to work for me. Is it possible for me to find another job and work under my EAD ? What will happen my new empoyer cancel my H1B ?How many times I can use AC21? Is there a time difference before using the AC21 ?

I quote:
"We have also improved our legal immigration system by reducing backlogs of immigration applications and devoting critical funding to promote innovative citizenship preparation and integration programs in communities throughout the country."
Any idea what they are talking about in terms of backlog reduction?
Cases waiting for visa numbers are not considered as backlogged. USCIS only terms cases pending processing as backlogged cases.

COBRA is a good option but I know its crazy expensive. They also have a high deductible plan. If your friend does not have kids (or even if he does) you could opt for HD plan - their premiums are much lower (< $500 for family). eg. for a doctors visit, under normal plan he would be paying 40$ copay and insurance would pay in-network negotiated rate of say $120. With HD plan he would need to pay $120 for doctors visit until he reaches deductible of $6k for the year. Not a bad option if you are healthy individual - covers you well in worst case scenario... Ask your family doctor in india to send you imp drugs, antibiotics etc etc. Within 100$ you can cover all medicine expenses...
If you need any help on that send me a PM.

Are you saying client company will not pay for the expenses or it will not sponsor H1 visa? If the Client Company does not sponsor H1 visa, i do not think you an sponsor yourself.You can pay for your expenses if client company sponsors H1 visa.
Thanks for your reply.
I read that with a signed offer letter from the company we can transfer.If they give me the letter and not pay any expenses can I still transfer?

what i mean is i am currently working full time with Company A. But I am thinking of making additional income by working for another company on part time basis. Can I file another concurrent H1? And if this concurrent H1 will be based on annual H1 quota?
I heard once that there is a special category for parttime H1. Better check with attorney.

Do you need to apply for SSN after getting GC? i was thinking that everyone who is working already has SSN... Do you have to get new one? that does not seem right??? please advise
Raj,
You dont get a new SSN. You just remove the restrictions that is on your previous card.When u become a LPR you should get a replacement card without any restrictions.If you read my post i mentioned SSN card replacement. I am sorry it might have mislead you otherwise.

Does .net framework give access to complete functionality of Windows OS?
Is .net used by Microsoft to build any applications. If so please give some examples. Is win32 api and C++ or is .net with C# the preferred way. When is win32 api used explicitly?
great information its very helpful to me

Thank you Rahul..
I really appreciate it.. Just one more clarification.
My employer didn't asked me anything during the interview (about CPT/OPT). Since I have to join in a week, should I inform them beforehand?
Thanks

Those who are on h1 cannot do that as IV is not employer for H1b.
Who are on EAD and above line can do it.
Its my thought.

I have applied AP for my family 3 weeks before. My wife needs to go India by end of next month. If AP approval doesn't come to our hand by next month, can she leave the country? If she shouldn't, what are the alternate options? I appreciate your help.
If she needs the AP to return to the US, then she cannot leave until she has that AP in her hand. However, she may be able to return in H or L status IF she has been maintaining that status . If she is in a dependent status (H-4 or L-2), she can use that to return if you are maintaining the principal H-1B or L-1 status and if she has not worked.
