You will be fine with the part time H1B visa. The only extra thing they may ask you to prove is how you plan to support yourself if the specified wage seems low in the area you are living in.

You may as well do her Green Card work permit as well at the same time as if you plan to become citizens in the future it will only speed up the process not to mention the Green Card wait time itself.

I doubt you will have problems at the POE if you have a valid H-1B visa. Who knows whether these records are fully gone or still appear but if you were reapplying for an H-1B visa at a consulate the question may come up.

It is probably possible but I am sure a transfer is only possible once the original H-1B petition is approved as otherwise what are you transferring from. I hope this job offer is worth taking the risk.

Your dates in your question seem odd. Your H-1B status would begin on October 1, 2009 if you were to get it. You can only work for company B if you have an approved transfer. In any case your current H-1B only begins in October so you couldn't transfer in August. Good luck with your H-1B

Yes it is essentially the same process and I don't think the transfer fee will differ as it is just that one fee.

It really all depends when your employer notifies USCIS about your termination as to how many days you have which is technically 10 days. Possibly look at the B-2 tourist visa to maintain your status in the meantime. CJ

If the visa is in its valid period she could travel that early but remember the issues around her filing before she is able to work which can take up to 3 months to get approval.

As the previous poster said, if you are able to find another employer you should be able to buy some time that you lost and hopefully they will sponsor you quickly for a green card.

With all the crackdowns on benching and phoney information on LCA forms, this type of stuff will probably happen more often now. In your case as much as I hate to say it, it may be prudent to at least ask an attorney for some advice but it may just be back to H-4 is the safest option.

It would be easy to make that job a "specialty oppucation" but yes as the other poster says, your employer has to apply and pay all the relvant fees. April 1 is coming fast so would suggest getting this process moving quickly.

Yes it should not effect anything. Of course if she became a partner for your green card or you became a j-2 dependent visa applicant there are other issues to consider but you should be fine if all legitimate

Yes your wife if she has an approved visa could travel before you to the US if it is 10 days prior or closer to the start date. (people do this for as simple a reason as trying to get cheapest flights)

Yeah be careful of taking this route especially if you intend to return at some point. It would be a lot easier if you did an inter company transfer if your company has a foreign office, then maybe you could come back on the L1 visa.

Definitely if you intend to return to the US, the IRS component is important more for your life in the US rather than the visa itself

Setting up your own business intially will be almost impossible unless you win a green card in the lottery or have a huge amount of capital and can come on an investment type of visa. Which country are you from Nick? The majority of people come on work visas where they are sponsored by an...

Sorry about your situation as yes between April and October last year, the economy really dipped. Look keep trying while you can support yourself as if you have a goal and a dream, it is worth fighting for!

If they didn't report, you should be fine, otherwise you may have to do a transfer application or sorts. Glad it all worked out for you :)

In my experience your lack of payments will hurt your credit rating but little on your job prospects on to get another visa. Your credit history has little bearing on most employers as you are not paying them money, they owe you money so credit ratings are of little consequence. Of course that...
