    Does H-1B automatically get cancelled after GC?

    Thanks guys! I agree, no reason to give them an opportunity to prove themselves!

    Does H-1B automatically get cancelled after GC?

    How can he find out if it HAS in fact been cancelled? The reason he is concerned is because of increased audits of H1-B employers and even though he has not done anything wrong, if the audit comes up with something on the employer, then he may get caught up unneccessarily in a mess...

    Does H-1B automatically get cancelled after GC?

    A friend of miine recently got his GC through a family based petition. Prior to that he was on a H-1B visa. Does the H-1B get cancelled automatically? If not, is it as simple as writing a letter to USCIS asking them to cancel the H-1B?

    OCI vs. PIO Comparison - Advantages and Disadvantages

    Employment in India - PIO or OCI better? I am considering taking up employment in India. The company is a branch of an American company. Is it better to be on PIO or OCI. On one of the sticky threads in this same forum posted by PIO1, (http://forums.immigration.com/showthread.php?t=209468) I...

    Delaying Oath, I knew this would happen

    Finito! Just wanted to update the thread with the outcome. My wife postponed her oath scheduled for 7/23. She got the letter with her new oath date on 7/20. The oath was scheduled for 8/13. Went just fine. She's happy she decided to go to the wedding.

    Dallas TX - N-400 Timeline -

    Are 2nd level IO's able to schedule interviews? How about oaths? My wife tried to reschedule her oath by calling the 1-800 # but they said she has to mail it in or use the drop box at Irving center.

    DO or NBC? - mailing Oath reschedule request?

    My wife had an info-pass appt. this morning. The receptionist told her she cannot see an IO for re-schuduling her Oath, and that she can either mail it in to the DO or put it in the drop box. So, she dropped it off in the drop-box. The wait contines... in the mean time we will go enjoy the...

    DO or NBC? - mailing Oath reschedule request?

    The return address on the envelope is the NBC in Missouri, but I called the 1-800 # twice and both times they said to mail it to DO. McTavish: The letter does not give any instructions on WHERE to send it to, it just says to retuen it as soon as possible.

    DO or NBC? - mailing Oath reschedule request?

    My wife got the Oath letter from NBC in Missouri. I called up the 1-800# and they said to mail reschedule request to DO(Irving, Dallas). I don't fully trust what the front line customer service people say. Who do I mail it to? DO(Irving, TX) or NBC(Missouri)?

    Delaying Oath, I knew this would happen

    If my wife meets an IO through Infopass, can the IO give her a same day/ next day oath? Or will it be the same outcome as mailing (Option#1) a re-schedule request in? Dallas DO has 2 oath ceremonies everyday, why don't they just schedule EVERYONE for the same day or the next day oath. It...

    Delaying Oath, I knew this would happen

    There's one everyday in Irving, Dallas. In fact twice a day. But I think they send the Nat. Cert.s to be printed ahead of time(IO told my wife she will need new photos because her photos are already used up on the Nat. Cert. sent off to Print) and it shows the date of the oath/Naturalization...

    Delaying Oath, I knew this would happen

    My preference for Option#2 is that - in person, there's less chance of USCIS misplacing the file or getting lost in a stack of rubble. Has anyone currently in this forum requested an Oath Delay? Please post your experiences.

    Delaying Oath, I knew this would happen

    I think some people have experienced much longer delays and headaches. I am beginning to think that maybe Option#2 is better. Wait for the letter, schedule infopass appointment at Irving, take new photos, and request a postponed oath in person. dms1: Yes, Irving, Dallas. Oath is at...

    Delaying Oath, I knew this would happen

    I had a bad feeling, I knew this was going to happen. My wife talked to an IO who told her that her Oath is scheduled for 7/23. We have a trip planned to Canada that week for a family wedding on 7/24! Obviously, there's no way she can take the oath, get her Passport and travel the same day...
