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 ) .

Folks!
Like me all July filers would get off the H1-B hook come this Jan. I am assuming everybody would use newly gained freedom of EAD to switch employer or jobs. So far, not many employers like to get involved in H1 hassels ( espcialy in midwest), so recruiters had good business by hiring engineers at low rate and syphoning off majority share of the pay check.
But now, with 180 days (less than 75 days) limit over, all EAD holders are free to switch employers of jobs ( I know in same or similar capacity ... but that's not the point). The point is what would be the effect on current business contracting companies have? What would be the effect of EAD on their cost models and consistent revenues?
Not saying they would cease to exsist, as H1B's would still need them. But isn't new and bold demands from engineers like me going to affect their margins? ...What do you think?

If USCIS are not giving RN in 90 days. How they will give EAD in 90 days or they will give EAD with RN :) All these are to confuse the congress where we are complaining. :mad:

HI,
I received a 500$ check for apartment referral , I am planning to give the entire amount to the person who took the apartment. I was wondering if during the tax return filing I should be reporting this as an income and if yes should I be deducting the tax amount from the 500$ as I will be paying taxes on it.
Any information is appreciated.
Thanks,
It is a taxable income (you got a commission for a service). However such a small change in your total household income should change your tax liability very little, and usually people would not bother to withold tax before passing it on. Also if you pass it on, that will probably fall under "gift" and will have different tax codes. For a small amount, such hassles may not be worth. Of course if you get such commissions regularly, or if it a sizable part of your total income, then you need proper calculations.

Hi
I got my GC approved for me and son (I485 application) in Nov 2007. I got my gc, whereas for my son who is 7 year old though he got I485 approved yet he did not get his GC. They mentioned they might need his finger print and so far no response from them. This is despite several follow up with them.
Last year 7 months he was not in US and now can he go to India and he will be there rest of this year.
Will it affect his GC and when will he get his GC?
thanks
Kumar

I don't want to second guess the experienced lawyers. They are probably planning on mentioning an alternative educational background as acceptable, in addition to the CIS. There is a place on the PERM form for this.

HI,
I recently booked an appointment for visiting visa for my parents through vfs, during the process , I first entered my Dad's details and then his ds 156, then It asked if I wanted to add additional family members, then I entered my Mom's details and her ds 156 . After that it asked for my Mom's ds 157 and never showed my Dad's ds 157.
So the final list of documents it generated was :
Dad's ds 156, Mom's ds 156,157 , interview letter.
Is this correct, does my dad need ds 157 and interview letter or is 1 ds 157 and interview letter enough ?
Thank you for your time.

[QUOTE=bin2000;764909]Dear all,
My employer filed H1B with extension of stay even though I was not physically present in USA on the day of filing.I was out of USA on June 15th due to personal reasons and they filed H1B on July 10th.
I had requested them not to file extension of stay since I was already out of USA.USCIS approved the petition with extension of stay(I-94 attached).I need to go for visa stamping now .Will this create any issues while stamping?
Hello,
If you are currently abroad, you should not run into any problems as you do not currently have status. You should be able to reenter the U.S. using the I-797 approval notice and your H-1B visa stamp (if still valid). If not, you will require a new visa stamp. Either way, you *should* not run into any problems.
If you are currently in the U.S., please note that the extension technically does not apply - i.e. your expiration date remains what it was previously. If your status has already expired, I would strongly suggest consulting someone more intimately familiar with the specifics of your case. The most likely scenario will involve you immediately departing the U.S. to reenter with the most recent approval notice and thus utilize the additional time requested.

My H-1B petition is currently under processing in Vermont sevice center.
The receipt status shows it was recieved on May 8th and currently pending.
The processing dates on the USCIS website show May 31st as the current date.
Any reason why I still didnt receive a decision from USICS for my H-1B Petition? Does this mean anything? Or can i still keep the hope that I may receive a decision from USCIS?

Wife got FP notice yesterday. None for me or my daughter. USCIS now has a new procedure where they will update the criminal background check without new fingerprints, unless old FP are unusable for whatever reason....That means no GC until end of July with all the remaining processing :(
Was hoping to be out of this agony earlier.......
Hopefully no retrogression in Aug.

I have a B1/B2 visa that I'm thinking about coverting into F1 visa when I get into the US I just have few questions:
1- How long does it take to convert the B1/B2 visa into an F1 visa?
2- If my visa gets converted into the F1 visa, does that mean my B1/B2 visa is cancelled and I have an F1 visa or what am I?
2- Will it be possible to leave the country for few months(after the conversion of my B1/B2 visa into the F1) and then return back to the US with ease to continue my studies ?
Thank you very much for answering!!!
1. It takes 3-6 months to change STATUS from B-2 to F-1;
2. Your visa does not get "converted". Your status changes to F-1 if approved. In your passport you will still have a B-2 visa.
3. If you leave the country after changed status to F-1, you need to go for F-1 Visa stamp in order for you to comeback and continue studies. Risk of not getting F-1 stamp is high for those who changed status to F-1 while in U.S. I never left US after changing to F-1 because my attorney and my International Student advisor advised it was too risky to do so. This is because if US consulate denies issuing F-1 visa, the consulate my also cancel B-2 visa at the same time because both carry non-immigrant intent amongst other factors. You can't just leave for a "few months" and just comeback while studying on F-1. The F-1 visa and related I-20 documents specify how long the program of studies is and you should be attending every semester taking at least 12 credits each semester, with the exception of the last semester, in which you don't have to carry 12 credits as long as after the last semester your degree is granted.
Hope this helps. It is based on my own experience. Speak to an International Student Advisor at the school which you have selected for more details. Good luck.

Sorry to hear the situation.
As you know if you can find another job based on H1 then no problem in porting your H1 to a new employer,now being in feb april is 50 days away so hope for best.
In this situation, yes, legal advice is preferred, relying info on the forums is never a right idea when it comes to a situation where stakes are high.
If there is any option of changing to H4 now and switching back to H1 later and pick the GC process where it was left before then that would be an ideal scenario, only an experienced attorney can answer this, hence the legal advice option.
Compared to H4, over stay may cause more trouble for now and later in AOS.
PS: My 2 cents and i'm not an attorney.
