H4-H1B-H4 Clarification
----------------------
Hi Rajiv,
I came to US on H4 in May,2006. And my husband is primary on H1,
changed company in June 2007 and his H1 is valid till June,2010.
That time his company also applied H4 for me, and it is valid till june 2010.
I got H1B in October,2007 and worked till April 2009.
Myself and my husband went to Mexico and got stamped H1B on our passports.
I travelled to India and returned on H1B in May,2009.
Since I am not getting project due to market,my employer asked me to convert to H4.
1)What is the procedure?
I saw in some forums that I can travel out of US and return to US on H4.
Is it correct as I travelled to India on H1B. If not what are the other options.
2) Do they need my curent pay stubs?
3) My husband is going to complete his 6 yrs on H1 by June,2010.
The PERM is going to be filed in this month. Will this create any issues?
Thanks for your help.

But now the situation is , I lost my passport and I am really confused what to do, If I apply for a duplicate passport in lieu of lost passport, will that make any difference/complication to the application process, How should I proceed??

Hi Rajiv
i had a petition for my wife (family based i-485), filed privately, we received a RFE requesting for a DNA test for one of the kids that we have. My kids are currently out of the country visiting with their grandparents, i have one month to get the RFE sent back, but the kids do not come back until after the time. I wanted to know if it is possible to get an extension on the RFE or if possible to challenge this request.

J-1 waiver
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Rajiv,
I am an American citizen and my wife used to be in America under J-1 visa and she was able to spend about 1 year and 2 months in her home country. Currently we are residing abroad due to my study. I am planning to file her I-130 petition through the US embassy here (DCF filing) but since she still hasn't fulfilled the 2 year requirement, we were thinking of applying for the J-1 waiver (no objection waiver) first. I have several concerns pertaining to her case:
a) She misplaced her DS-2019. We're trying to retrieve it from her school. If we are not able to get a copy of her DS-2019, can we still apply for the waiver?
b) Is it advisable to proceed for the I-130 petition while we are applying for the waiver or should we wait until we received the waiver? If I-130 was filed in advance, does it get nullified if my wife had to go back and complete her 2 year residency requirement?
c) If the waiver doesn't work out, I am planning to send her back to her home country after I finished my study. Does she have to spend another 10 months only (since she stayed there before 1 year 2 months) or would she have to do a complete two years again?
