    Urgent advice needed:interview scheduled right on job change date

    Hi Rpranesh, I did not email to ask for my name check status -- should have done so. I did ask the officer during several InfoPass appointments, and here is the amazing thing: I got back and forth answers everytime I asked! I think two times the answer was "no" and two time "yes". So I have no...

    AC 21 question -- Job description unavailable??

    You knew your title of the old job, so supposedly you know pretty much your job duties and descriptions. Since you need "same or similar" job, you shouldn't need the exact descriptions to come up with something similar.

    Urgent advice needed:interview scheduled right on job change date

    I have another question for you parlay: if at the time of my interview, my name check is still pending, then I won't get my GC. In that case, can my wife get her GC at the interview -assuming her name check is cleared? I am the principle applicant. Would then even adjudicate my wife's case if...

    Urgent advice needed:interview scheduled right on job change date

    Thanks pralay! I finally was able to talk to my attorney and her answer is exactly like yours -- to mention about the new job regardless of whether I am still with current company. This way, there is no intention of mis-representation and will basically be treated like AC21. I am impressed...

    Urgent advice needed:interview scheduled right on job change date

    Pralay, thanks for the response. I do have an attorney to handle the interview, but would like to do my own research at the same time. I am not worry about the EB1-OR case as I feel I have a strong case there. My concern is on the potential fraud issue - if I stay with my current employer at...

    Urgent advice needed: AOS interview & job change on the same date

    TheRealCanadian, thanks a lot for the response. I want to challenge you (and other experts) on whether interviewing with my current job is indeed a fraud: the fact is, I accepted the new job offer BEFORE the interview notice came. So my intention was not to leave the current employer...

    Urgent advice needed:interview scheduled right on job change date

    Thanks Rpranesh for the response! The reason it's called for interview is likely due to some issues my wife had, but I am not sure... My 140 is EB1-OR based, but it's also employer sponsored, so I am not sure how different it's than cases based on Labor Cert.. I'd appreciate other guru's...

    Ungent question about H-1 trasfer and EAD

    my understanding Since your H1B will expire soon, I guess you need to get a H1B transfer (to new employer) and at the same time a H1B renewal (for another 3 years). The normal process probably does take longer. But with premium process it should take 2-3 weeks. You should have no problem...

    EAD to H1B transfer?

    my impression You should be able to get a new H1B visa, but I think you need to leave the country and come back for it for changing your status from "485 pending" to H1B. I am not sure whether you need to wait for 5 months before coming back. I never heard about that. Your EAD should still...

    Thanks for the info Compass! Just for clarification, can I ask a few quick follow-up questions? 1) Did you mean when you first applied for EAD, it was approved, and this was your renewal? 2) Did you mean they sent you inview notice the second day after your visit? Thanks.
