I guess your H4 is not approved yet and continuing your employment on H1B. Your best course of action would be to have your employer file an extension (beyond 6 years) for H1B and get a 3-year approval (with approved I-140). You can change jobs after this but if you don't want to take this path you can still find a new employer before end of march and apply for H1B to get a 3-Year H1B. You will need to restart your PERM and go through the whole process with your new employer ASAP.
So I am not able to apply for a new H1B while on H4? Thanks!

Folks,
I need to find document or URL which states that "Employer is responsible to pay for H1B extension for its employee" OR it is illegal for employee to pay for H1B extensions.
Could somebody help me find that document/memo? I am trying to google it as well.
I need to submit this to my HR urgently (Red tape process :-( ). I will very much appreciate if somebody has the link/doc/memo handy and point me to it.
Thanks a lot in advance

did you get one? FP is necessary to the EAD
I filed EAD/AP and I485 together when I filed back in June 2005. I did not do any finger printing for EAD then. But for EAD renewal in 2006 and 2007 March, I applied EAD online. Then I had to go to ASC(Application Service Center) to give finger prints(not all fingers for EAD).
I'm one like you, check with your attorney for expert advice

Yes, you will need an Advance Parole or an appropriate visa to enter the US from Canada. AP approvals are taking close to 3 months these days so you should e-file your application ASAP. Also, call USCIS at (800) 375 - 5283 to expedite your application once you have the receipt number since you need to travel at such a short notice.
Some people have had luck contacting their congress representative as well.

Thanks for your suggestion.
I am worried whether i will be able to find a job in this tough situation or not. So if that is possible, i would like to start that route too.
Any other option?

Hi All,
Me and my wife are on EAD. We want to open LLC. Right now I am doing consulting in IT firm. My wife is not working anywhere. What are TAX and immigration consequences if we open LLC on my wife's name?
Questions we have..
1. Can I become parnter easily once my status got changed from EAD to GC?
2. Once my wife start LLC, can she work for another company e.g. Software consulting?
3. What would be tax bracket for my owner of LLC?
Thanks,
dj
You can start LLC or 'C' corp on EAD. No consequences. You cannot start 'S' corp on EAD. See this:
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum72-ac21-portability-after-180-days-of-485-filing/13349-ead-can-you-register-a-llc-inc.html
1.) Yes, but you cannot work for it without filing H1 if you are on H1 status. You can even become a partner on EAD.
2.) Yes
3.) Depends on your state of registration. Contact Department of State in your state of residence. In Texas you have to pay $750/yr even if you are not doing any business in LLC.

Hi!!
I am preparing grren card aplication with EB2-NIW.
I have question about I485, Part2, Application type.
If my I140 is pending, which type do I (principal applicatn) and my wife (spouse) have to check?
Some people said that I can check "a" and my wife can check "b".
Other people said that I can check "h" with "EB2 NIW" and my wife can also check "h" with "filing concurren
tly with applicant's spouse I-485".
Could you let me know which is right?
Thank you very much!!!

Nikon was most popular among the pros photographers during the 1970s and that finding has led me to choose it for my 35mm equipment.
One of the major advantage is its system ability to use old lenses for its newer bodies. Moreover accessories for the camera bodies are easily available in the local photo retail outlets.
The lesson learned from the D2h could have gone into the making of the D70 along side with their surprise attempt in the huge advertising spending (TV and other various media) in launching the product.
Perhaps it could have been a shortsighted affair to aim the D2h only for the PJs. Nikon could have been holding the flag up when the camera could be in the hands of millions of advanced serious amateurs including the many part-time professional photographers world-wide. Not to say the huge market in China could have been overlooked by their thinking engineers!
What about the millions of part-time and full time photographers doing weddings and other assignments who would wish that the D2h is an 8 MPs. where large enlargements are required.
The D70 has brought many loyal consumers to stop discarding the old Nikon lenses. In fact their current aggressive marketing attitude has seemingly brought a smile back to many previous happy Nikon users.
My next wish is for Nikon to design and produce another DSLR by carefully listening to users of their equipment. Not to say that just by assumming that all PJs only need is 4 MPs is wrong because that can be a decoy in their planning too. More to watch from the factory that was set up to produce the D70 in Thailand! I am sure Nikon will not disappoint DSLR users with many more surprises in the very future.
