I'm on H1 and My spouse is on H4 (came on H4 in Dec 2003)
We are both Canadian PR's. I worked out a deal with my US based to company so that I work in Canada and come to USA occasionally.
Here are a few questions regd my spouse
Planning to apply for H1 in April 2007, Once H1 is approved
-Can we use automatic revalidation to enter USA without getting our visa's stamped. My h1 expired in 2006 and my spouse;s H4 expired in 2006.
(remember my spouse is applying for H1 )
-How safe it is FrequENTLY travel to Canada and back
-How safe it is to stay in Canada for duration of 3-6 months and come back to USA
-Once my spouse gets the H1 approved, should he move to H1 immediatly or can continue on H4?
-stamping of H1 (first stamping for H1 in Canada) after conversion from H4

Hi,
My I-485 AOS thru my Husband's I-140 is pending right now.
Recently My sister's Approved I-130's priority date is Current, So now I Can file for AOS thru my Sister's I-130 also.
My question is :
Which is better Interfile or new filling ?
What are the advantages and dis-advantages of both ?
If I go for Interfiling and If My Application is not approved thur one track (I-130 / I-140) will my application be pending for another track ?
Thanks

I was in the same boat and I can tell you that you have to pretty much depand on your company attorney. In my case it took 2-3 inch thick stack of documents to prove the relationship of the US company with its foreign subsidiary and if you are trying to get L-1A (multinational executive/manager), it will take another bunch of documents to prove your credibility, your existing status with the company as a manager/executive in the foreign subsidiary, your proposed role in the US company and a lot more. I guess it would be wise for you to let the attorney handle the case as you probably won't have much to do with the whole process. However, the positive news for you is that almost all of the well documented and properly filed L-1 petitions are approved by USCIS, and any experienced immigration attorney won’t have much of a problem getting you approved.:)

hi friends,
some time ago i contact my senator through this site
http://www.opencongress.org/bill/111-s1085/show
and wrote to him about plight of workers in limbo for years
if not decades ... following is response i recieved... request
all those stuck in GC limbo to contact their senators...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
U.S. immigration policy is based on four underlying principles: reunification of families, admissions of immigrants with needed skills, protection of refugees, and diversity of admission by country of origin. The Immigration and Nationality Act specifies priorities for permanent immigration using a complex set of numerical limits and preference categories. Immediate relatives, defined as spouses of citizens, children (under 21 years of age and unmarried) of citizens, and parents of citizens 21 years of age or older, have been given priority in the immigration process.
Senator Robert Menendez (D-NJ) introduced S.1085 on May 20, 2009. This legislation seeks to reduce current immigration backlogs by classifying lawful permanent resident (LPR) spouses and children as "immediate relatives." Currently, spouses and children of LPRs must obtain visas through the Family Second Preference category. This can lead to a waiting period of several years. Among other things, this bill would allow unused and unclaimed visas from 1992-2007 to be placed back in the pool of current available visas for families, and would establish a �roll over� system for unused and unclaimed visas in the future. This bill has been referred to the Senate Committee on the Judiciary, where it awaits further review.
I will continue to work with my colleagues in the Senate to craft effective solutions to address our nation�s immigration problems. I will keep your thoughts in mind should S.1085, or any similar legislation, come before me in the full Senate.

Well, He doesn't know a whole lot about immigration issues.
I already have my green card so I don't have anything to hide.
I just need some advice because he's in a different field. (engineering) and I got mine in Market Research.

I don't think your lawyer knows what he's talking about. All you need is your I-140 receipt. I applied for my wife on July 2 and used my I-140 approval notice. Did not even include the I-485 notice as the instructions did not ask for it. The simple solution is to go online and download the official instructions and figure out for yourself.
I got myself in somewhat of a mess here and wondering if there is any solution?
I filed for my I-485 on June 28th and it reached UCSIS on 2nd July. I wasn't able to do the same for my wife as she was in India at that time.
She is back now and I want to file her I-485 but my lawyer tells me I can not do that because it either needs to be filed concurrently with mine or they need to have a receipt for my I-485 which doesn't seem to be coming in the next few weeks.
Is there anything else I can do? Anyone has similar experiences? Will a copy of my I-485 filing do?
Thanks.

I had a 10 AM appointment a couple of weeks ago and I went there at 9:30 AM and the waiting room was almost full.....But by 11 AM, there were very few people left and no new people coming in..So I was wondering they dont schedule appointments after 11 AM...Maybe they have appointments afternoon...So 11 AM should be a good time to go in....I am sure there will be a lot of people in the morning hours....

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?

My understanding is that once you I-485 gets approved, the H4 gets invalided. She needs an AP to return.
I have read at many forums that at the POE, the officer may not be able to see if the H4 has been invalided or not and may allow her to get in with H4. But if that happens, I think she will be in big trouble . As you know, it's always our responsibility to maintain status and act accordingly. This is why most of the lawyers suggest to carry AP.
