Documentation details on Mumbai consulate web site says, we need to submit original notice of action for H4 visa. My friend's spouse is already in USA, and my friend is attending for H4 visa in couple of weeks. Do we really need to keep original notice of action with us for H4 stamping? Could...

if employee was not paid, and instead if employer asks the employee to send vacation letter and no dues letters notarized, are these documents valid at the court of law?

My employer has not given me 140 approval notice. Is there anyway I can obtain duplicate approval notice from INS? If I change the attorney, can new attorney request for approval notice from INS? Can you guys please help me on how to get approval notice?

Thanks for your replies friends. That definitely relieved me. If my renewal AP is approved in the middle of Dec and comes with the validity from, lets say, Dec 20 2006 to dec 19 2007, doesn't mean I will have two valid APs for the same period? Is that valid situation?

I have my current AP valid till Jan 30th. I have applied for renewal in September but haven't received approval yet. Now I am travelling to India on Dec first week and returning in Jan 2nd week. If my renewal is approved while I am out of the country, what is the status of my current AP? will it...

hmm. thanks again.

Yeah. That is what I felt. I guess I should consult some other experienced attorney and use his services for filing H1B transfer. Thank you so much for your valuable suggestions ginnu. I appreciate your comments in this regard. Please give me any more suggetions if you have in mind that...

Thank you so much Ginnu, That helps. I was told by attorney that they need 140 approval notice in order to file H1B transfer since this is 7th year extension. He also told me that, there is no special benefit in transferring H1B because in the case of 485 denial H1B will also become invalid...

Hi Friends, My 140 was approved in 2005 and filed 485 concurrently in Dec 04. I am moving to new employer now using AC21. I have a question though. I am still using my H1B and on 7th year extension now. I have 2 more years left on my H1 extension. I want to be on H1B even after I have moved...

gc2003nightmare, Are you in touch with your Attorney? Seems, you have very little information in your hand, and roaming here and there to gather more information. If you are in touch with your Attorney, he/she is best source to get clear idea on what went wrong and what needs to be done...

Infact I have contacted reputed attorney and he gave me couple of very valuable suggestions. Based on my conversation with him, it is not really required to have LC with me. I have found some useful documents which are enough for changing the jobs and filing AC21, there is no reason to worry...

I have done concurrent filing using the pre-approved labor in Nov 04. My Pd is Apr 02 - EB3. My 140 was approved a year back and its been more than 18 months since I have filed 485. I want to use AC21 now and want to join in some other company. I dont have LC copy that was used for me. Employer...
