Friends,
Can you all post the names of good consulting companies to work for. Let's create a list here.
Thanks,
And what would that list of "good consulting companies" have to do with IV? Or Employment-Based LEGAL IMMIGRATION?

The LC and I-140 petition are owned by your employer, just like your H1-B petition and can therefore be withdrawn at any time (if the advertised position no longer exists).
I spoke to an extremely good lawyer, but he is human and could be wrong. I was trying to tell the OP what I knew. Can the laws be found anywhere, by the way?

if I-485 is denied, you are out of status and must leave the country immediately.
In case one is using EAD and 485 rejected for some reason. you have 180 days to safe guard one self.
please check other threads for detailed responses.
Good luck

Hello Folks,
I have a very urgent situation and would really appreciate your help.
Background :-
H1-b holder through consulting company A, filed for extension in Dec 2008 and got approved in 10 days for a valid duration till Nov 2011.
I was working with them on client projects through-out, and have valid pay-stubs until May, and possibly even June.
But I found a full-time job with a small company, who also filed for my H1 transfer. The application packet received USCIS on May 26, and they sent an RFE which was received by us on June 1, along with the Receipt notice. The RFE was for proving my duration of stay outside the US, since my lawyer put that time towards recapture. In hindsight, I should have asked them not to, but what's done is done.
Anyways, my documents have been received by USCIS on Wednesday, and I have no updates yet showing up online.
I have to leave for India on Saturday for my wedding next weekend.
My possible scenarios :-
1, Case status online changes to Approved, I can travel to India before receiving the approval notice ?
2, Case status is still pending, they need more RFE. In that case, can I ask my new company to provide the RFE when I am in India ?
3, Case status approved, I wait for a couple of days before I get my I-797 approval notice, that means I will have to change my travel plans. I really can't put it off, since I am traveling for my wedding next weekend.
Can someone advise ?
My travel to India is definitely happening, but can I go and get my visa renewed along with my wife, and come back ?
Thanks, and keep up all the good work.

I'm in my 9th year of H1B which is going to expire in about six months. My employer is suggesting to extend H1B and not use or extend EAD. Based on your experience and knowledge please post your advise. If a post like this already exists, please point me to that. I could not find one easily. Thanks a lot.

Hi All,
I have got fingerprint notice and appointment is after 3 weeks in Charlotte NC. I will not be available on that day and do not want to postpone the appointment.
I would like to prepone the appointment and I tried to find Charlotte USCIS local phone number but could not find anywhere. The only number is general 800 number and that was of no use.
Does anyone have any experience with Charlotte office? Can I just go there and will they do fingerprint any day before actual appointment? Charlotte is around 4 hours drive. It will be painful to drive there and find that they don't do fingerprint before appointment day. What day is normally good if I want to take the chance? Have anyone actually called them and prepone the appointment? What is the local office phone number?
These are two many questions. But all are related. Sorry for being so long and thanks in advance for your response...
rangeela....
I from California so no idea about Charlotte office.
Notice of Action that you received tells you things to be done in case you want to change your biometric appointment. Though I am not sure but vaguely remember you have to contact USCIS directly if you want the change. Hope this helps
Good Luck

Guys, this is the time to show the core group that we are a bunch of people thankful that there is IV to help us fight this fight.
We need to stand united and raise awareness and sign up for the $20minimum a month recurring contribution.
I understand that some of you do intend to contribute and have contributed generously in the past,
But here are some mindsets, All of us fall in these 4 mindsets.
1) you probably think "why should I sign up for a monthly recurring contribution program". I am a generous contributor and I contribute almost monthly anyways.
2) I have contributed enough.
3) I will contribute if I feel like, when I see something comming out of this effort.
4) I do not have to contribute.
If you are in category 1).I can tell you, I understand because I have been a generous contributer in the past. But guys, the reason I signed up for a monthly recurring contribution is that it helps IV know that 'X' amount of funds are guaranted every month, this way they can better plan.
Category 2) Contributed enough - Okay why dont just sign up for a minimum amount of $20/month once more. What is enough is not enough.
Category 3) This has been discussed, I do not want to talk about this category of members.
Category 4) Again - No Comments-
Lets show the core team that all of us fall in the first 2 categories.
The last thing we want the core to do is bite their fingers over funds. We do not want the core to get stressed out over funds. They have enough real work to do already.
Inspite of being a serious team player, and a generous contributor it took me some time (few days) to sign up for the recurring monthly contribution program back in Jan. so I give all of the ones that have not set up a monthly recurring contribution benefit of doubt. But this is our last chance, I urge you to be one of the 1000 people we need for this effort.

My company ( biggie US firm) filed 140 and 485 on a substituted LC on July 2.
Now my own LC which was pending in BEC (and which has better PD) is approved. Can I file 140 on this? Since substitution is risky, I want to use this 140 for my 485 (over the substituted one) ? How do I do that?
Do I need physical copy of my approved LC to file 140?
Replies will be greatly appreciated
I would file a separate I-485 and I-140 for this other LC. Experts, what say?

Hi,
My name is Rajeev. I�m working as a senior technology consultant (Senior Business Analyst and Senior Quality Assurance) with a top IT consulting and service company.
Background:
My H1-B visa and 1-94 are expiring on July 06th 2009 (almost 4 months from now) and final 6 year H1-B time is ending on May 2011.
I spoke with the HR manager of my company to renew my H1-B visa four times in last couple of months but every time she says that there is of integration going on (Actually, my company was acquired by another company and right now integration is going process is going on). However, I spoke with the immigration department of my company and they told me that since integration process is under way, however this integration process will not effect the renewal of H1-B process, company will deal it in the same way it was dealing before. I explained this thing to my Manager on Tuesday but again, she was not convinced and want to speak with the her immigration contacts and advised me to wait and didn�t gave me a date when she is going to get back to me ( I don�t know what is going on in her mind).
So far, I�ve not applied for Green card, actually, last September, I submitted all the paper work to my Manager (till Dec 2008, I was employed with the consulting division of my company and afterward, I was transferred to the local account). With this transfer, my consulting division manager refused to process and pay for my GC and advised me that I should apply it through local account.
Now local account is saying that it is very unlikely that they�ll sponsor my GC because there is lot of cost cutting going on and GC process takes anywhere from 10 K to 14K. I did told them that company may deduct the GC fees through my pay. But I didn�t hear anything from them so far. Its been almost 2 months now.
Advise and Help:
Since my final H1-B is expiring on May 2011. Almost 2 years and 2 months. My GC is not filed yet. What should I do now?
1. Look for a new job, who can sponsor my H1-B (actually, I�ve started looking but no luck yet).
2. What if if I don�t find a job till July 6 2009?
3. is it a good idea to transfer my H1-B visa to Indian consultancy company without a project in hand?
4. Please recommend good Indian consultancy companies to whom I speak regarding my H1-B transfer and GC application process.
Please ask me specific questions or which I may not have addressed above or I�ve not explained any section above.
On the different note, I was also got stuck in Canada last year from April 2008 to Aug 2008. Here is my previous post http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?p=279088.

I think this is what is happening in your cases,
If you efile for your AP and If your last fingerprinting was done 18 months before Then you will get Fingerprinting notice and you got to go n give new finger prints.
If you paper file, Whether or not your FP expired (18 months) you will never get finger printing notice. (unless your PD is current and they are adjudicating your case and sending a RFE).
Always better to paper file.
So to confirm if what you are thinking is true or not I called USCIS,
The guy in TSC said it is a mistake and they will clarify it. I wasn't very convinced with his response, I called back after sometime, this time since there was no response to TSC it was route to other service center
As earlier even this time the representative in this center was not able to answer as to why it says "interview reschedules” but she did transferred me to an officer.
After several identification questions, Officer said this is not related to finger prints and she was not sure if it is related to I-485 interview either as they put reschedule interview note on my I-131 application.
Finally she gave me a WTC-XXXXXXXX-TSC number, asked for my cell # and asked me to call back after 10 days if I don’t hear anything from the USCIS.
I really don’t know what is happening; I don’t have much choice either other than waiting for something “GOOD “ to happen
Any thoughts ......??????
