Well, infact not and that's part of the circumstance I am in, though I hope to settle down in at a steady place soon.

Guys,
I am entering 5th year of GC and lately have been forced to change my address frequently (in 1 month gaps) by circumstances. I have been filing AR11 online as I change address. Would the...

Any advice?

Gurus,

Need some advice on a situation. I have an acquaintance who has completed 5 yrs on H1B and would move to H4 soon. I understand H4 status is linked to H1B primary being in-status thereafter...

Yes.


I thought so too. Good to see similar opinion.


Agree that it would be good to keep it simple and put it as MS+2yrs work exp w/ salary now meeting market rate.

Thanks for the inputs.

Sorry, should have been more descriptive. Its for an acquaintance. Here are the details:

EB2 application: MS + 2 yrs work exp (2 yrs work exp with a prior employer in the same field after MS)...

Posted this on PERM section but didnt get a response. Expecting one here.

Gurus,

Can the work done (not research stuff but actual part time work in univ) during F1 count towards work experience for EB2 PERM, given that current job (outside school) is in the same field....

Yes


H1B revocation does not automaticaly trigger I140 review within USCIS. So, its not necessary that you'd get an RFE. It all depends upon how early does your AOS file get looked at after H1B...

Bear in mind that if you choose to do so, and apply for AP renewal by visiting the US, you should not leave the country unless AP is approved (even though you have a valid prior AP or H1B) else the...

Send joint tax returns for as long as you've been married. Also, you could send marriage pics, affidavits from parents and any other supporting doc that shows you two to be married. Don't fret. The...

The intent was to advice the OP not to fret if there hasn't been any re-finger printing though its always better to do a case specific inquiry with CIS (call them or schedule infopass).

I have heard of an instance as recent as this month where I485 was approved without any re-finger printing after the initial one done when I485 was applied for (around the 2007 fiasco time).

If she currently doesn't have work authorization or wishes to work on EAD once 485 is filed, then yes. Its not a requirement to file for EAD along with I485 application. It can always be applied for...

File before the last date of the month for which the visa bulletin shows the PD to be current. And if you haven't filed until the next month's bulletin is out and it shows that the PD continues to be...

Though, unfortunately, its not going to change things for you but this Attorney should not be allowed to go scott free. While he was making money off you, you end up having sleepless...

Hi,

Has USCIS discontinued online Change of address facility. Its no longer @...

If she's able to get BC, you may take the passport to the nearest Indian consulate and have the DOB corrected on it. That's what I did.

Yes, you may and as long as you are not drawing salary from your startup, your H1-B status would be valid as well. Re: any job related RFE, if you are employed within the job profile as mentioned in...

Yes, it can be extended by that amount. and if you have the dates, you may accumulate all the time spent outside the country during the 6-yrs of H status and apply for the that much time of extension.

True but while she's still on H1/H4 (or waiting for COS) she'd be eligible for in-state tuition even though its for a few months.

True. As long as you have a job offer, you are eligible to file AC21. So one option could be for you to find an employer - before you leave the US - who's willing to hire you 4 months down the line....

In my opinion, going the F1 way is the safest. If you are in CA, most Cal state Univs. (not Univ of California) dont need GRE scores, only TOEFL scores are required and last day for application...
