Hi Rajiv:
I have a question regarding a CSPA issue for my brother and his wife and 21 year old daughter.

Application type F-4
Application was filed on 06/26/98
Application was approved on 05/10/99
Child’s date of birth is: 02/05/88
Child turned 21 years of age on 02/05/09
The I-130 priority date is 06/23/98 (already current)
The D-230 Visa application and other paperwork has not been submitted yet
Daughter is currently enrolled in a master’s program - graduate in Oct/Nov of 2010.
Questions:

1. Is the 21 year old still protected under CSPA .
2. Can we delay so Interview is in July of 2010 and they can make their entry into the US in Nov/Dec of 2010.
3. What is the deadline for them to submit the D-230 visa application and to do the interview and arrive in the US without the 21 year old daughter aging out.
3. We are concerned with police clearance – If we submit now, will we have to resubmit? These are troublesome to get.

Hi Rajiv,

My current H1-B expired in early May 09 and a got 3yrs extension in early Sept 09. My 6yrs on H1-B visa technically ends on Jan 2010 but as I have a labor and I-140 approved I was able to file for a 3 yr extension. Now I have been told that my position will be eliminated at the end of this year and I need your help with the following questions:

1) Am I allowed to transfer the H1-B (after being on 6 the years on current H1-B) to another employer?
2) Does the new company have to file for a LC for me before they can apply for H1-B transfer or can this done at later time?
3) How long does my current employer have to keep LC, I-140 and H1-B valid to allow my H1-B transfer to go through without any issues?



Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks

Dear Rajiv,

I would like to post the following question on your next conference call.

I would like to apply for a green card through your organization and I am not sure which category is more suitable (through EB-2 (NIW) or any other).

My employer, State Department, does not sponsor labor certification, but will provide employment verification letter and will support I-140 and I-485 applications.

I have PhD and have more than 20 years experience in my field.

I did apply for a green Card in 2003, under EB-1 (Extraordinary ability aliens) and my case was denied due to lack of supporting documents.

I have used my 6 years of H1-B. My current TN1 (Canadian) expires in November 2012.


Sincerely
Vic

Hii ,
I have a question reg., my OPT
Im now enrolled in Masters program on H4.
Im planning to change my status from H4 to F1 for spring 2010.
school said they'll file in early november.If so then I will get my student visa after the semester has started.
I already Completed 12 credits and still left over with 27 credits which are required to attend school full time and get an OPT.
So if i am approved my F1 in spring 2010 then I must be full time student while my F1 is approved.
To do so I have to enroll for spring semester on H4 full time ie., 9 credits and wait for F1
then I will be left over with 18 credits which is not sufficient for a student to get an OPT.
Question: even though I am enrolled for spring on H4 and since I got F1 in spring do they consider me as full time student on F1 from spring semester or do they consider that as I have completed only 18 credits on F1 and deny my OPT.

Please answer my question


Thanks,
Sandhya
