It's ridiculous what's going on in CT... We should be applying for LC pretty soon with company and it's frustrating to know we have to wait at least 1.5 years to be approved... Hopefully PERM will be implemented this year, if so, probably we could have EAD by this time next year???? Who...

Thanks for your response rock369... That is one of my concerns, exactly what you're wife is going through... Originally when I first came to the US on a J-1 and my spouse on a J-2, the Consulate didn't want at first to give the visa but fortunately they did at the last possible minute... It...

Thank you very much for responding. I'm planning on starting the MBA in Fall, end of August or early September. To apply for the F1 visa I would need to have acceptance in the program first before they issue the I-20, and I don't see this happening before July or early August. Now, would July...

Hello to all, My situation follows: I'm on H4 and my spouse's company will sponsor Green Card within the next 3 months. I'm planning on pursuing an MBA and in order to take advantage of practical training, I'd like to switch to an F-1. My question is: Is it considered "immigration...

That's not a bad idea! Even if american consumers buy my "products" or "services", it would be allowed since it's a business originally created in my home country... That's a fabulous idea!!!... I just would need to think of a reasonable web based business... Thanks a lot gp...

Thanks for your input gp. I guess going back to school is the only reasonable thing to do under the circumstances. Believe me i've tried to search for a way to work while on H4, without necessarily breaking the law... I know that stock trading is permitted under certain limits of course. Day...

Hello friends, Has anyone heard of "labor consultants", specialized in hiring people to whom they request the H-1B on their behalf and then sub-contract the person to another employer? Does anyone know where can they be found? The only drawback is that they won't sponsor the candidate for...

Thanks for your response. It seems unlikely there will be a rejection on the H-1B transfer, and since the company is making such a huge investment on my spouse, paying for temporary housing, helping with closing costs on purchase on a house, pretty good salary increase, etc., etc., I wouldn't...

Thanks for your response. Then it seems that it's not as bad as we originally thought... I suppose the person I talked to in the law firm is not informed...

Hello, My spouse got recently an H1B transfer and is working in new job for 2 weeks now (I'm on H4). We want to start green card process as soon as possible, and the company is willing to sponsor it, BUT we were told that we needed to wait for the H1B transfer approval by INS, which will take...

Immigration intent Hello, I'm currently on H4, used to be on H1B before losing job. I have a master's degree from a prestigious US University but the job market is tight...I can't stand doing "nothing" so I was actually suggested that I should go back to school and get F1 in order to be able...

Hello, I was an H-1B visaholder but recently switched to H-4 (both visas are stamped in my passport). My original H-1B was valid until January 2004 (my current H-4 is valid until March 2004)... My question is if it's possible for an employer to do an H-1B transfer in my situation when applying...
