Hello Gurus,
My 6 H years (2 H1 years + 4 H4 Years) have expired and I am currently on H4 visa based on spouse's H1 visa.
Is the change of status from H4 to H1 possible, based on an offer from a company that has a pre-approved labor matching my skill set and with a priority date of 2003...
Can a H4 to H1 applicant currently in US start working for the new employer as soon as the USCIS website shows Change of Status from H4 to H1 as approved?
Or is it necessary to wait until all the paper work(I-797, I129 etc.) to arrive at the employer's/lawyer's office and then start working...
Hello Gurus,
I filed for Change Of Status(COS) from H4 to H1 on June 14, 2005.
I am planning to upgrade to premium processing so that I can get COS to H1 done earlier.
My H4 Visa expires on 20th October, 2005.
My concern is if I receive my COS to H1 after 20th October;

Hello Gurus,
What happens if H4 extension and H4 to H1 Change of Status for a same person are processed simultaneously?

Please let me know your comments/suggestions.
Thanks again.

Hello Gurus,
I lost my passport, I-94 and SSN after filing for my 7th year H4 extension.
Does the loss of passport, I-94 affect the 7th year H4 extension?
Also, what is the procedure for obtaining duplicate passport, I-94 and SSN?
Please let me know.
Thanks.
Hello Gurus,
My current attorney is asking for $2700 for filing new H1B Visa petition.
How much does it cost to file a new H1B Visa petition?
I guess the H1B fee is 1500 + Lawyer fee of 1200 = 2700.
Please let me know if the lawyer/company is asking for too much money.
Thanks...
Hello Gurus,
Is there any way of knowing if an employer has filed an H1 with INS, such as calling INS and providing the name of the person and asking if the H1 has been filed for that person?
Any comments or suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks.
Hello Gurus,
A Change of Status(COS) from H4 to H1 was filed on September 25th for a friend of mine.
But, according to his employer, the lawyer has not received a receit number yet.
How could he confirm that his COS from H4 to H1 was REALLY filed?
Any suggestions or comments in this...

Hello Gurus,
I am planning to do my H1B revalidation by mail (St. Louis) using my existing employer's H1B visa, but I am anticipating an employment and address change in a month or so.
Is it advisable/appropriate to do so?
Please advise.
