Hello gurus, pl. help me. Can one of you who knows a lot can help me by replying. Thanks.

Hi, Just recently I left my company A and joined company B on H-1. Company B has already started my H-1 on regular process (as opposed to Premium Processing). My wife's H-4 appointment is on July 28th Chennai consulate. My questions: 1. Do I need to wait until I get my I-797 for...

Hi, why don't you try calling the 800# and choose the option to speak with a representative. you may have to spend some time on the phone waiting. Usually, I think it is, 60 days after application you can have the guys do an audit trail to find out the status on your system. In our case...

Rahul, why don't you do EAD on-line. This will you go into ASP (most often ocal USCIS office) where they get all the biometric info. This might be a lot easier. Good luck.

I think online EAD is better. Looks like you don't want to try that - Good luck with traditional approach. With online app, there are no lost photos and them not reported as not conforming to requirements and such .... Yes, photo copies of these would be sufficient, I would think (since...

Why would you think this to be a problem. Typically these days, even if a person for ex. on H-4 not allwed to have a Social Security Card can apply and get driver license using their passport to offer proof that they are here legally. I know people who are on blanket L1s and their wives (on...

Jayag, that was wierd that they scheduled an appointment without you having called the ASC. But it is good. On the change of address: We had similar situation. This is what we did: 1. File AR-11 to London, KY 2. Keep a signed copy before mailing. 3. Mail by certified mail with return...

Yes. You better consult your attorney and get this straightened out. For many practical purposes the validity on I-94 is crucial and you don't want any wrong information on there.

My L-1 was also for 1 year period. But, I may have to do an outside trip to get the extension done now that they have dropped doing the revalidation within the US. It wasn't helpful in many ways since they would lock your passport up for 3 to 4 months and if there was an emergency you would...

Hi, Hope this isn't too late. did you consider or explore the option of doing the EAD on-line. It works much faster easier. We did this and had very positive results. There is an complete "to-do" & "not to-do" lists/advice on this forum - may be different group. We used that as a guide...

lalla see below for my take on some of the questions you posed 1. Can the COS to H1B be done here or do I have to go outside the US for stamping? <A> COS can be done while in the US. But if you travel outside while COS is pending, USCIS may consider it to be abadoned even though it might...

Hi guys, I looked through the guide/manual for online EAD application-very good compilation. It seems to have focused on the larger community i.e., people in GC process. My question is: Can a L-2 visa holder apply for EAD for the very 1st time on-line (electronically)? Or one has to do the...

Answering my own question check the link below that I saw under EAD section. This is a very good compilation. http://www.immigrationportal.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=108916

Does anyone have any idea if the regular (snail mail) method or e-File is better for I-765 EAD? Main question is how do they compare in terms of 1. Response Time (Application to Approval Date) 2. Strange issues that are prone to crop up due to the system being new/electronic .... As far...

Glad it all worked fine in your case. I hope my stamping should come through in the mail shortly, hopefully w/o any glitches. Good Luck w/ the relocation.
