    Does AOS supersede I-94 status

    Now I am confused Ginnu. Thanks for the reply but I probably did not phrase my question right. I was asking for which of the above do I need to do but you kinda answered it like what is the value of doing each of those. Here is a better way to re-organize my question -I hold a H1 petition...

    Does AOS supersede I-94 status

    Need some help to understand maintaining valid status. I have a H1B approval notice valid until 2012 and also an AP. I will be travelling out of the country and will submit my existing I-94 along with the one that came with my H1 notice, before I leave. I do not plan to go for H1 stamping...

    I-485 processing date current - now what?

    Priority date is the date in which the labor application was filed. EB2 category is possible only if the job description requires a Masters degree with XX years of experience and also pays the prevailing wage for the position. If your boyfriend comes from a country other than India, then you are...

    LUD on I-485 Today, Why?

    You are not alone I got a RFE for both my I-485 and my spouse's application as well. My PD is Nov 2006, EB3 and as we all know, PD for EB3 is still stuck in 2001. I guess it is a part of USCIS pre-adjudication process, where they pretty much touch every app that falls within their processing...

    Changing jobs with promotion using AC21

    Salary requirement for EB2 This is kinda old question too but I never got a clear answer hence asking again. Does a person's salary have to be in the Level III or Level IV range to be eligible for an EB2? This was one of the reasons given to me when I was defaulted to EB3. I was in the Level II...

    Changing jobs with promotion using AC21

    Thanks Ginnu and all for your inputs. As for Is_GC_A_Mirage, I would hang in there, if I were you. I am thinking of moving and porting becos my PD is late 2006 and in EB3, but with mid 2003 and EB3 already in Nov 2001, you are looking at probably 1 or 1.5 years before your dates become current...

    Changing jobs with promotion using AC21

    Also need advise on the following I do not have my I-140 receipt notice or tracking number (company policy is not to release this since they pay for it). I have good relationship with my employer but at the same time want to cover myself in case I have to move and send docs proving AC21...

    Changing jobs with promotion using AC21

    That is my concern Job description is really my concern. On one side, it is perfect to apply for EB2but on the other side it will be largely mangerial type description which is different from my current operational role. The tool is the same, technology is the same, industry is same but role is...

    AC21 Salary Difference Issue

    Same here Coolman, while I am not here to give answers, I should say I am in the exact same position as you are (Your numbers are pretty close to mine as are your labor, 485 dates). I have been seeking answers to the same questions and what I am hearing (which is good news :)) is that I should...

    AC21 or H1B

    Thanks Gentlemen or Ladies who answered my question, thanks a bunch. You replies are reassuring. I have also heard that salary raise should not be an issue, but my salary within my sponsoring company has increased 20 to 30% since I filed labor (thanks to heavy bargaining !!!) and with this move...

    AC21 or H1B

    Thanks Thanks Tammy. You reply is reassuring. I have also heard that salary raise should not be an issue, but my salary within my sponsoring company has increased 20 to 30% since I filed labor (thanks to heavy bargaining !!!) and with this move of trimming a layer I can expect another 10 to 15%...

    AC21 or H1B

    Friends, Like many of us I am past the 180 day mark where a person is eligible to use the AC21 provision and move to "same or similar" jobs. However there are some looming questions which I am sure many have answered before or seen answers in other forums. If you could please point to those...
