Hi:
I am currently using EAD. My I-485 is pending status. I am planning to get married in India soon. She will be in India as I can not bring her on H4 and student visa is difficult. So dilemma is about 485 name addition. Can I add spouse's name in I-485 application whenever Priority Date is current?
If yes, then how does it work? I mean is it possible at all?
As long as you get married before your I-485 is approved, you can file a 'follow-to-join' petition for your spouse when your priority date becomes current. You will need to submit I-824 when your PD becomes current. Your spouse will obtain an immigrant visa overseas after the petition is approved.
You may contact an immigration attorney if you cannot file this on your own and require help.

You should be good as long as the existing Visa is valid when you reenter. Even though the existing Visa stamping is tied to your previous employer, You do NOT have to go for Stamping just because you changed the employer and got the new H1. The IO at Port Of Entry might ask about your current employer and you should mention your new Employer and show the new H1B approval at at that time.
I hope this helps. Good Luck & Welcome Back!!!
Thanks.

I have my H1B stamped visa from company A,and is valid till September 2010.I came to India in August 2009 and planning to come back to US in the next month.
Meanwhile i have filed for a H1B tranfer to company B in April'2010 and it was approved in last week.
My question is can i come back to US on my stamped visa from Company A.Is that still valid even after my transfer was approved to Company B ?.
Do i have any problems at port of entry to us ?.
Or do i need to go for H1B stamping for Company B.
please tell me what are my options.any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I was a Donor few of months ago. Since last month, I am not able to see Donor forum or see my membership as "Donor". Wondering if there are any changes made to qualify one as "Donor"?

I like the DOF, and it would also work if the whole string of flowers were sharp.
There is possibly a bit too much flash, the shadows between the flowers are a bit hard IMHO.
I'd clone out the leaf at the lower left.

H1 has been approved for 2009 quota for a client A. it is almost one and half year and the visa stamping has not been done. The client A is no more interested and a new Client B is interested to offer the same position in a different location or at H1 petitioning employers location. The LCA has been filed for the Client B and may get approved in next couple of days. Is that okay to use this new client letter while going for H1B Visa stamping? This new client is not the one on whom the actual H1B petition is approved.
Question is When going for H1 B visa is it necessary to use the client letter that has been used when applying for H1B approval. Can the clients be different while going for Visa Stamping?
This is urgent as the visa stamping appointment is in a few days. And the attorneys suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

It is perfectly legal to let two employers file for her H-1B visa. She can even work for both of them!
Hi,
A friend of mine who's in India right now has been offered a job by two different employers here in the US. Both of those employers want to file for her H1B.
From her perspective it makes sense to let both the employers apply for her H1 coz that increases her chances of getting at least one approved. However, reading a bunch of FAQs online it seems that it'd be illegal for her to let both the employers apply for her H1B.
Is that correct? Does anyone have any insights?
Thanks.

Hi Guys,
I just learnt about the news in Business week on starting discussions for increasing Visa Numbers to help alleviate our pain.
Skilled Workers May See Green-Card Surge (Link:
http://www.businessweek.com/bwdaily/dnflash/content/jul2007/db20070718_068854.htm)
With this in mind I was wondering whether we can compile list of victims of Immigration system based on state and send it to each senator asking for help in moving Skill bill and other pro-immigration reforms cleared.
We can also indicate some on the main issues we are facing as a summary to each senator to make the people understand what kind of roller coaster our lives are
Information that can be captured to indicate the wait time and different ways we are affected.
Name, State, PD, approx Expected approval date (with approx 750000 thousand applications in July) and what effect this would cause on our lives
A) Family torn apart (kids growing older than 21, etc)
B) Cannot live the American dream by excelling in work to higher position and benefits for average 5 - 10 years - cannot change jobs or responsibilities
C) Kids (mostly citizens of US) deprived of basic luxuries because parents cannot buy houses and cannot send them to private schools because of uncertainty in visa status. Most of them manage in rental homes and feel guilty for not able to provide the best for those innocent kids (US citizens)
D) With this long waits, Could not purse higher education because of 6 years limit on H1 and no option to change employer after 6th year because of pending application.
E) Most immigrants are eagerly waiting to start their businesses but are restricted because of visa status and the dream remains dream for most of them because of timing in market and personal life.
F) Some of them are abused by employers who take advantage of the loop holes in the immigration system and long waiting times.
G) Lose of revenue, most of the spouses are well educated and are not able to work because of H1 quota limits or no EAD and it takes on an average 3 -5 years before you get your EAD.
More can be added based on others experiences.
It would be great to get some information about Taxes paid (percentage) by immigrants,
Number of businesses opened etc to make the case stronger.

The preadjucation process is just like bringing a pregnant woman into labor but not allowing her to give birth till the babies number comes . The woman then needs to be painful labor for 28 years ( some member said that’s how long it will take ) , so the baby is grown and healthy ( preadjucated according to USCIS ) , but the doctors from the Department of state ( DOS ) are not allowing the baby to come out into the world .
USCIC is off late preadjucating the petitions and keeping them ready and many members seem to thrive on just seeing and discussing the LUD dates since by now most of us know somewhere in the subconsious that the GC is a nothing but a bone tied to our tail which we might never be able to bite .
Some members including me who unfortunately lack the analytical skills of some looked into a very interesting thread some time back which said EB2 will be current within a year . It spoke about 'spillovers' and we all were very happy that finally our baby will see the light of the day . Just like hope never dies I even though the dates have moved back to a date when most of us were in graduate college and the Clinton administration just left , some members are still now hopeful of a "spillover".
I for one have done what it takes for 4 long years in all ways possible to wake these guys up and now I am honestly least bothered about my GC and I feel the earlier members get to this level of mindset it will give them a lot of mental peace . I am just waiting for my visa to expire or my wall street employer to lay me off( whichever happens earlier ) in which case I also get a free ticket home .
The expectation that "next month may be the month" will surely kill you long before your GC actually gets cleared ( after 28 years ) .

My H1-B is expiring in December 2007. I have approved I-140 now and am hoping to get 3 year H1-B extension based on my approved I-140. Do you think I can get 3 year extension even if the visa numbers for filing AOS is current? Does AC21 apply to this case? Please suggest.

Dear Friends,
My PD (EB3)is Dec-02. I have gone for Finger Printing twice now.
I see lot of reference to '45 Day letter' in the forum . I have no recollection of receiving the '45 Day ' letter so far.
Am I missing something here?
Can any one of you please explain what this letter is about?
Thanks,

For this IV urgently needs close to 30k for lobbying efforts. We have collected 27k so far.

Three immediate Action items:

2. Be part of IV: To get, inside updates, share what you want us to do, please become member of WI State Chapter of IV. Send me your non-ge email.
3. Reach out: Send this message to atleast 5 people (and cc me) who are facing Green Card delays and have them talk to me directly.
I understand everyone can not go out and protest and meet Congressman/ woman/ Senators but I am certain that these 3 action items can be done very easily.

(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and

My current AP will be expiring this Dec, and my priority date is Jan 2006.
I have a wedding in Canada in January 2011. I would like to know if I need an Advance Parole to Canada then re-enter? Somehow I read somewhere about Canada and Mexico have different requirements.
Thanks for your input.
Yes, you WILL need AP. DO NOT leave without an APPROVED AP in hand, to Canada, as that will make your GC application deemed abandoned. Repeat, you need an APPROVED AP in hand, before you depart for Canada.
