Approved!
I got great news from TSC this morning - my GC is approved. :D I am happy but still in shock! This is my third attempt after living here for 8 years on H1. No LUD on my wife's GC but I'm sure it will be approved soon. As much as I resent the USCIS for years of delays, TSC has really...
Wrong. By the time you retire (I assume you aren't 50 yet), there will be no money left in the US social security system.
You will get them same thing all people currently paying into the system under 50 will get - probably nothing.
I am not an attorney, but personally I wouldn't risk trying to get your wife in with only a few days left on the visa. File for premium processing ASAP.
You are ignoring two important facts about the US social security system.
Current SS payments made by workers are mostly paid out to retirees within a few years. There is no big pot of money that these payments are going into where they can be paid back to you. The Social Security surplus is...
I have been waiting six months for my extension, filed in July. If I was you I would pay for premium processing, or change your travel plans.
However, you can keep working and your wife can remain in the US while the extension is being processed, beyond Feb 05. It's not clear from your...
Nebraska is still processing August and they won't get to your H1 for at least a month. I've been waiting over six months for mine.
Pay for premium processing if you need it faster.
With all due respect, you are wasting your time if you think (a) there is a way for H1's to escape Social Security taxes (b) there will be any Social Security left for anyone currently under 40 and (c) the US is going to sign a social security totalization agreement with India.
Claiming H1's...
I've never heard of such a thing. If you need proof you are married, carry your marriage certificate.
My wife doesn't have my name in her passport and she has an H4.
I am in the same situation - applied H1 extension July 16th thru Nebraska service center. The USCIS processing time report of Dec 17th claims Nebraska are processing July 30th.
In the next two weeks or so USCIS will put out a new report. If the processing date moves 30 days past your...
Sure - as long as the new LC filing is for a different position (which in the case discussed in this thread it appears to be because it has different requirements and salary)
1. No. The six year limit is for all time spent on H, so you cannot transfer to H4.
2. No, otherwise everyone would do this!
I would seek a good attorney. Maybe you could transfer to a student visa or something?
Your attorney called me and told me they found an excellent US citizen employee for your position. Apparently he knows how to post on a message board in the appropriate area so they hired him instead. :rolleyes:
