Gurus,
I am on H1B in USA and now I am planning to set up a company in India. Will I be violating any laws by doing this.
Can I operate the company from USA and still get payed in India. My clients will be paying my company in India.
Will I have to pay taxes in USA.
Thank you for your time.
WOW. People ask so many questions!!
Here is the answer - If you stay more than 6 months in US, you will have to pay taxes exception will be only L1 VISA. But before you think of L1, read L1 Visa requirement rules.
Have fun.

Unless you need to travel immediately, I551 stamp is not important. I am assuming she only declined to stamp the I-551 but the GC was approved.
These days you get the card in 30-60 days from approval. sometimes even within the week so you dont need the stamp. The actual GC card is the I-551 document you need. The stamp let you travel without the card in the days it took around a year for the card to arrive.
Congratulations and get the passport renewed, you would need the current passport for travel anyways.

He had personally visited the president at his oval office so folks if someone thinks he can help he surely can help.

If you were born in India, EB-2 or EB-3 doesn't matter.
Absent any legislation, it is estimated both will take anywhere between 20 to 40 years to get to current date.
Good luck!

Now as mentioned by multiple people some things are not clear
Here is my situation:
a. H1 Expires Dec 31 2008
b. Perm applied 02/2008 and approved 04/2008
c. I-140 applied and pending since May 2008
As you can see i have a gap of over 2 months between H1 expiry and 7th yr extn.
Given the scenario above should i wait until Nov 1 to apply PPS for I-140 and then apply for H1 extn??
given the time taken for H1 extensions (regular) my employer may want to apply for H1 extension atleast 3-4 months prior to expiry.
Any thoughts...

they will not "do away" with comprehensive..... if it fails this year they will bring it up again next year and next..... there is no room for piecemeal...... if there were.... they would do it after cir failed in 2006, but they didn't..... they could do after cir failed in 2007, but again they didn't...... or they could do piecemeal in 2008, 9 or 10..... the fact they didn't .... it just tells us that we ought to learn something here..... there is nothing called piecemeal & there will never be anything called piecemeal in this leg of immigration reform, other than our own fantasy world.... so get over it...... there is only 1 way to do it.... cir
lets start the undocumented bashing party now......
I would agree with you on this. However, a failed attempt is better than no attempt.
Problem is, politically we (legal immigrants) have no leverage and so only thing we can count on is to piggyback our agenda into CIR; whether we like or not like undocumented is a "secondary issue". Only potential damage that could occur to legal immigration (from CIR) is chocking up the system; and therefore, we have to include that in our efforts else legal immigration will be a history for about a century.
Legislative relief is the only possible relief for EB3 India; else people who are already waiting for almost a decade will have another decade of wait; simply rediculous.

I filed for AOS in Aug 07, my attorney advised me that we could combine the checks payable to USCIS for family members (EG: in place of one check for my 485 and one more for my wife we could combine both the checks for 485 and issue a single check for twice the amount). Based on the above, i issued 1 check for 485, 1 for EAD, 1 for FP and 1 for AP.
Now my checks have been cashed and i am able to see the receipt number on the back of the cashed check. I see two receipt numbers on the back of the checks for EAD and AP however i see only 1 receipt number on the back of the check for 485 (and the same number on the back of the check for FP)
Did any body else also send combined checks? Did you get a single receipt number or multiple numbers?
Thanks.

Is this in RFE connection with an Adjustment of Status filing? if so, you really only need to show that you did not violate status for over 180 days since your last lawful entry (Section 245(k) of the Immigration and Nationality Act).
In any event, proving that you maintained status does not require showing all old I-94s. You need to show that you were approved for or admitted in a certain status, and that you stayed in that status until it was changed or extended. Approval notices, visas, and maybe entry stamps from your passport re usually enough, and just the most recent I-94. If you held F-1 status, you would need to show your I-20s, visa and proof that you maintained a full courseload as required by the I-20.
Thank You for the detailed answer.
My question was not related to any RFE in specific. But in a general way, what would be the procedure to obtain the past copies of I-94's.
As per your answer, it should not matter, If I have the copies or not. It would be good, if we have it. Otherwise there are alternative ways to answer the RFE.

Your case is tricky. AC21 may not protect you. First, your case is subsitution labor. That itself a negative factor. Second, your GC is for a future job. This means, you have not worked with sponser during non-immigrant status. As well as, you do not have intension to work for the sponsor after getting GC, as you have intension to invoke AC21. GC is for good faith intension in both parties(employer and employee) to have emplyment relationship after employee gets GC. As you have not worked for the sponser at any point of time, it is very difficult to prove that you have "good faith intension", if your employer withdraws the 140. It is not the AC21 issue, it is mostly the intension issue.
Also you mentioned that there is a financial issue. If your employer is not able to pay the salary for your position as per 140, then it is a geneune reason for him to withdraw. Then the 140 may become a misrepesentation. On the other hand, if employer willing to pay the 140 salary and if you are not accepting, then it clearly establishes that you have no intension of working for him at that salary. So, in this case AC21 will not applicable.
I do have intentions of joining the employer once the GC is approved. The financial terms are regarding extra money for the GC process.

Thanks for the quick reply, Krishna. I would infact get paid in INR in an Indian account. But what do we do when we file our taxes? When my husband files as "married filed jointly", do we declare this income? Do you have any inputs on that.
Income earned in India has nothing to do with US taxes.
Even if you file as "married filed jointly", there is no requirement to have it declared.
You will pay US taxes only when the income is earned in US.
You would rather file taxes in India for the INR income.
Thanks,
Krishna

I am not getting any appointment in June with any doctor within 60 miles from my place. So I took an appointment with a doc 70+ miles away for end of june. The only problem is I need to go twice 70 miles one way. The clinic suggested I do the blood work in nearby county clinic, but the county clinic wants 7-10 days to get results of blood work. I asked them for HIV and Sephallius test to be done. I already got TB Skin test(tested negative) done at county clinic.
Can someone please tell what all blood tests need to be done, so I can check if any other doctor can do the blood work and I can save one 70 mile trip . Thanks.
Common buddy this is nothing. I drive this daily to work one way. You are worried about 2 days.
Take a day off and visit near by places and have fun.

First of all you are not supposed to involve in any of the PERM process. Its plain illegal. It seems you are taking the wrong route for your porting.
I know but when there is a chance, we must make sure. Who told u that always works.
They advertise in the company's message board and recently I have seen they did not mention anything about qualifications for one EB2 GC of my friend.
Hence I got a doubt.
Again,
Is it a must that education like MS or equivalent experience is needed for EB2. Please let me know.

I will take an Infopass. Did you get a new Card or they just corrected in their system?
My lawyer advised me to take an infopass to correct the name of my dependent on the EAD card. Instead of "e", they placed "a" and he said that I might as well have the name on the FP notice and I-485 corrected.

Hi Prem,
Thank you very much for the insight of my issue. Just want to inform you that my employer(who intitiated the transfer now) are the employer and the client for me. Hopefully I might not get any RFE and as you said if I get the reciept number after 14 or 15 calendar days and update the result of petition in a week or so, that would be great.
Once again thank you very much for your reply. I will keep posted about my status.

Did you get the approval or receipt?
