This question is implying that the stay for the children to go to school in canada would only be a month or so, not more than six months - so does anyone know if there's a risk in messing up the green cards while the family waits a month in canada while waiting for the next destination.

I guess we should ask them to remove the employer's restriction, which is the prime reason for extreme exploitation. H1b should not be restricitive. IV should also address the same. We are looking at the current problem with retrogression only, but what about future aspirants who come on H1.
H1B quota and H1B related issues are not primary concern of this organization. Greencard retrogression is. It has been that way since the inception 18 months ago.
We have taken positions to make H1B more workable and have less restrictions on it regarding H1 extensions and H1 transfers and therby opposed major portions of Durbin-Grassley.
HOwever, right now is not the time to debate and have open discussion on flaws of H1B program.
This is distraction at minimum and ammo for anti-groups in worst case scenario. Please contribute, send webfaxes, make phones and provide live updates and save this discussion on H1B flaws for slower times.

Hello guys,
If the employer is not willing to share your I-140 approval status with you, is there a way to find out this information from other sources?
I currently have my 485 & AP numbers but do not have I-140 number to track on the USCIS website.
Thanks for help in advance.
post the employer name and address so that other people will be careful working for him and also if employer comes to know about IV, he will stop these kind of things

True, i did not use EAD but i went to India and came back using Advance Parole. My Lawyer says i need to switch back to H1 by filing the change of status again(fee $1300).
I have H1 till 2010 but not stamped in my passport.

I recently found out that someone had stolen my credit card information to purchase items online. I have since then closed that credit card and went ahead and put a fraud alert for 90 days on my credit report. I don't believe my SSN was stolen, but I want to check my credit report and also for protection have the alert so that no one tries to apply for loans etc. using any of my information.
Will having the fraud alert have an impact on my 485 filing in any way? Let me know what the best process is to handle this if it does have an impact on 485 background checks, and pending green card approvals etc.
I have no criminal history.
Thanks,

485 Received Date 7/27/2007
Fraud alert does not go into your permanent credit report. All this does it is that when you try to open a new loan/credit account, the lender will see that there is a fraud alert on your profile and may call you to verify. It should not have any effect on your I-485.
I have been thinking of signing up with lifelock.com. You may wanna check them out.

Company "A" had filed my H1B transfer after I accept their offer. I signed the offer letter
In offer letter no where it is mentioned that if I leave company , i have to pay H1B transfer expenses.
Also It is clearly written without any reason , time either way can terminate job. This is below from offer letter..
"I have read and accept this employment offer. I understand my services under this agreement will begin with the successful transfer of my H1B. I understand my employment is terminable at will, i.e., and either company or I may terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause."
Now , I have a better offer ,I am not joining that company .
They are asking me for H1B transfer expenses.
Company is asking "You signed and agreed to become an employee, however you never even started working here to begin an employee/employer relationship also you keep delying your joing time..It is clear that the delays were a stall tactic and completely dishonest, which any court will agree with."
If I am not paying it, they are going to take legal action ..
Please let me know your thought or any lawyer can help me in case company files legal action and what will be charges
Thanks a lot ..

Folks,
I got an RFE (first time) for my 485 and my lawyer responded (sent it through post) on August, 9th, 2010. I am wondering, how long USCIS takes to update the status online? I just want to make sure USCIS received my RFE, that�s all I care.
Thanks much.

We recently assisted a client from Johannesburg, South Africa, regarding an H-1B specialty occupation visa. He was approved for an H-1B visa, but in order for our client to enter the United States, he must obtain an H-1B visa in his passport. Because the chances of visa issuance vary greatly depending on documentation and individual circumstances, we suggested that he go to the interview at the U.S. consulate very well prepared. We told him to take a certified copy of his entire H-1B package that was filed with the Immigration Service, along with his Form I-797 Approval Notice. We also suggested that he take original birth certificates, marriage certificate, and proof of financial support. He attended the interview this morning and his experience at the U.S. consulate in Johannesburg, South Africa was documented as follows.
“My wife, myself and our son had our interview at the U.S. Consulate here in Johannesburg this morning, at 9:00am. We duly arrived at 8:30am, had our relevant DS documents checked at the door, took a number, and waited for the “call.” At promptly 9:00am we were called to a booth, where our fingerprints were taken, the DS forms checked with the original I-797 form, and then told to go and sit down again. 10 minutes later, we went back to the booth, had our fingerprints taken again, and that was it. All visas approved, and to pay DHL the delivery costs. No questions asked, no documents asked for, no requirement of proof of copies of documents, nothing. All in all a painless and easy task.”

Hello.
I filed I-485 on October 1st. Alone with I-485 I filed Form G-1145, E-Notification of Application/Petition Acceptance. Instructions for G-1145 says that I will be notified within 24 hours of documents accepting but I didn't get any notification yet. Is this something I should worry about? Documents been sent by Express mail and delivered to Chicago lockbox on October 1st.

Hi All,
Need some comments on my situation. My lawyer filed for my I-140, I-485, AP, and EAD on November 20th on EB2 Row Category. I just emails yesterday stating that my EAD card is sent to production, but they have asked for initial evidence on 485. Is it possible to review 485 without looking at the 140? I am not sure what that query is, but really hoping that it is not something serious. I've already waited for 16 months for my Labor to get approved. Please share your experiences, suggestions etc. regarding this.

On June 1, 2009, new document requirements go into effect at land and sea ports for entry into the United States. Pursuant to the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative ("WHTI") an individual may show one of the following documents in order to be admitted into the United States:
U.S. or Canadian passport;
Trusted Traveler Card (Nexus, Sentri, or Fast/Express);
U.S. passport card;
State or province issued enhanced driver's license.
California does not issue "enhanced driver's licenses." (Enhanced driver's licenses contain multiple levels of security features.) It is no longer possible after June 1, to travel to Canada and expect to return with just a California driver's license. You must therefore have proof of citizenship as indicated above or proof of lawful permanent residence (i.e., "green card"), or proof of some other kind of non-immigrant status in order to be able to return to the United States.
For more information about the document requirements, please see my previous post on "Free travel widget helps plan trips abroad and return to the United States (http://www.californiaimmigrationlawyerblog.com/2008/10/free_travel_widget_helps_plan_1.html)." You may also go the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (http://www.getyouhome.gov/html/eng_map.html) website on WHTI to obtain further information.
