Hi All (Please respond)
I was laid off from company A in MAY 2002 (got salary till 31st May), later joined company B from 1st July 2002, so, I think, I was �out of status� for 1 month, later left company B because of differences on 31st October 2002 (received salary till 31st Oct ) and filed for H1 transfer with other company C on 11th November 2002, I got H1 approval on March 10th 2003, and started working with company C from April 2003 till now, so have 5 months gap between company B and C.
Was I out of status? If yes, looks like I was out out status for 6 months (5months continues plus 1 month earlier), unfortunately this comes to 181 days (june, nov,dec,jan,feb,march).
My I-94 was never expired and I went to India in Feb 2007 and got H1B stamping done and entered US with no problem.
I started my labor with current employer in May 2004 and got I40 approved as well, now filed for 485 in july rush, got EAD and fingerprinting notice, I am worried that my 485 may be denied because of �out of status� in past.
My Question:
1.Was I technically out of status and unlawfully present?
2.How does 180 days calculated? (continues 180 days or 180 days added in two time span like mine)?
3.If there was any out of status or unlawful present in past, Is it erased after lawful entry in US (I did enter in US this year after H1 stamping in India)?
4.Is Fingerprinting notice assures that everything is fine except security and criminal check?
Please help? I am really tensed after reading few forum, This will be horrible emotional set back for me and my family after 6 years in waiting if our 485 is rejected.

Sorry you cannot claim. You have been a resident of GA, so rent/meals/commutation/laundry cannot be claimed as deductions in Tax return. You never had a home in NY/NJ. You will surely be a RED flag for IRS. Dont do wrong things to get some money. State the truth and be satisfied of the tax return you get.
However, you can surely ask your employer to give a part of your salary as expense reimbursement, which is legal.
Trust me, you get more tax return here in US, than in India.

Easiest option is to get a PIO card - very long validity, no need to get visa every time.

I am currently on H-1B and filed for Adjustment of Status. I filed my I-485, AP, & EAD in August 2007. I got my EAD and AP in 2007 and it expired last year as well. I did not use the AP. I am with the same employer that filed my green card application. I am continuing on H-1B and did not use EAD.
My H-1B is valid till April 2010. I have not applied for the extension of my EAD & AP. The H-1B stamp on my passport expired in August, 2007. Also, my passport is valid till October 2009. My wife is on H-4 and the visa stamp on her passport also expired in August 2007. Her H-4 is also valid till April 2010. I am planning a trip to India in the coming month.
I wanted to know the process for my travel to India at this time on H status. Should I follow the standard procedure to file for H-1B renewal stamping at Indian embassy in India. Do I need to apply for passport renewal now since I have 8 months before it expires. Is it true that now it takes 4 work days to get the visa stamp in Canada.
Your help in answering this would be really appreciated.
Thanks.

If the new address is not with in acceptable distance, as per DOL, your employer need to start the process all over again for the new location. Since i-140 approved you can recapture your PD from 2007.
I have approved I-140 with PD MAY07 awaiting date to be current to file I485, now my company is moving to a new address,
Can anyone please tell me what will be the impact on my GC process and what I need to do? Appreciate your help on this.

thanks!! it's always good to hear that i'm improving from someone as good as yourself. it was funny, as i was going back the dirt road, the party kids from the night before were on there way out, they don't know what they missed this morning.
That's why you get up at 4:30! My friends make fun of me for that... The successive ridgelines in the fog make for a real feeling of depth. I've tried that technique a few times, but never pulled it off this well. I also like the aspect ratio you chose, it contributes to the 3-D, receeding-to-a-point, effect. The color here is likewise very nice. The only thing I would say could be better is that the sun is distorted by the cloudline. It would be better if totally obscured, or better resolved. In any case, you can't control the clouds. Super shot.

I came to US in 2009 March (on H4 Visa) ,
I filed my H1B in September 2009 with Company A and got approved October 2009. I search for projects 2 months; my employer was unable to place me. So he said he will revoke the H1B petition. After that due to family emergency I gone back to India and while re-entering I entered as H4. (As per I-94 Copy). That H1B never got used and I never got any pay stub from Company A.
Now I am on H4 till date.
I have found the project and the new employer (who is client say Company B) is ready to file my H1B application. Now as per the Company B�s Legal Team, they can�t get the approval before 1st October 2011 (or start date of H1B visa) and they have to fill this position by this month End. (Which is May or Mid June)
Now I have inquired some other place and gone through different forums to get answer.
Here is the query,
If Company B files my H1B petition with attachment of existing I-797, will my petition get approved from the quota of 2009 (since I got visa with validity date as 1st Oct 2009 year)??
What kind of H1B petition I need to file and when it will get approved?
Will this be a fresh H1B petition or something different?
Can I get approval immediately ( if I filed in Premium processing) so I can start working. Or does the petition will say as start date 1st October 2011?
Please help me in this issue. I will really appreciate your help.
Any document/ link which shares light to similar issue is really helpful for me.

I travelled via Frankfurt with a valid I-797 and without a current H1B visa stamp (was going to India for my 1st stamping) last year. I had confirmed with the German Counsulate in US that as long I have valid I-797 I don't need a transit visa.

Hi, I am currently on my 5th year H-1B visa. I have an option to stay with the same firm and they will help me apply greencard. But I am also considering an opportunity in Bermuda for a 2-3 year program (with the same firm).
My question is if I come back to the US after 2 years, will I be able to apply H-1B visa again? Will it be a whole new H-1B petition/application process subject to the H-1B cap?
Or will it be just another H-1B renewal process following my previous two terms?
Do I need to wait for another two terms of H-1B to expire before starting the greencard process?
Can I ask my currently employer to apply for greencard concurrently while I am working outside the US?
Thanks,
E

Guys,
I just got my approval (Mar 06, TSC), finally! The key issue that I am facing is that I am not in US at the moment and it is very difficult for me to return immediately.
1. Is it okay that I come back after a month or so?
2. Secondly, my AP is expiring later this month though I have H1B stamped till next year. The issue is that earlier this year I had used AP to enter US in spite of the fact that I had a valid H1B. DOES this invalidate my H1B visa? Can I use the H1B visa to enter US after my AP expires???
Is there anything else I can do such as getting the cards fedexed to me and use them to enter US?
Experts pl. advise�
Thanks a lot.

Can you please help me figure out how to calculate the eligibility for citizenship. If one married a US citizen. Obtained conditional residency, the temporary green card, then forgot to apply to remove conditions. So re-applied for green card, and was granted. The parties have been married 5 years. Will the initial 2 years spent as a conditional resident count towards the 3 years for the citizenship? Again, I want to stress out that after the initial 2 years in conditional permanent residency, forgot to remove conditions, and a new application for green card was needed. However this time the permanent green card was given. Or will she have to wait another 3 years from now on with the permanent green card until applying for the citizenship?
I appreciate any help.

I moved from Company A to company B towards the end of my H1 6 th year with only a month and half left in my H1. Company B applied for my 140 and 140 was approved just on the day of my 6 year completion. H1 transfer was filed in parallel in normal processing. H1 transfer has got an RFE now a day after 140 was approved.
1. Will there be any problems in getting the H1 transfer based on the 140 approval with the new company? Please note that I do not have any days left in my original H1.
2. What will the duration of H1 if the transfer gets approved?
3. I am continuing to work based on 140 approval and pending h1 transfer. Please advice is it is ok.
Thanks,
Deepa
