I know this seems like a silly question, but I am finding conflicting information on the internet and I'd like to clarify: I'm filing an extension for my H-1B that I have since 2004. On the form there's this question that determines the exemption from the $1500 fee: Is this the second or...

:) Thanks again for the advice. I'll probably end up doing this for free then. I wish my company would agree on your suggestion because that seems to be the easiest way.. Oh well.. :(

Guru, I'm a Software Developer. I'm doing programming for our company's accounting software. Our company does all kinds of computer related business: sales, services, softwares, etc. The only qualification I have to do work in the religious institution is just my musical ability (singing +...

Guru, I'm from Indonesia. There's still one issue yet. I was talking to my bosses and the only concerns they have is that whether this is a 'legal way to do an illegal thing' - if you know what I mean by that. They think, if we as H1 holders by law cannot accept any payment from any other...

Whew! Thanks for the swift response, guru! I had a feeling something was not done right. I just got it straighten up! Thanks a TON!

Hi all, got a quick question here.. I currently hold a valid H-1 visa and have been working in my company for 2 years. Starting last week, the church I attend ask me to lead the worship services and insist to pay me as well. Eventhough I am not an employee, the church need to file taxes...

Yupe. you're right. Only H1B approvals and its not stamped in passport. It will take 1 month, sometimes much later to get it stamped back in Indonesia.. one month to get 485 U must be kidding --> longer?

haha... sorry if this is getting confusing :rolleyes: We both have H1-B status (working permit), but not the H1-B VISA which we will need to re-enter US. The only reason we need to go back home is for the wedding ceremony, thus we will need to apply for the VISA to go back. Yes, I know...

The process to get H1 VISA from home will take long. We can't leave work that long. With AP, we can process it from US so that we can go back right away without waiting for the H1 VISA.

Yes, we can do it under our H1, but the process will take too long (1 month) and most likely both of us won't be able to get off work that long. It will be nice to do it via AP so that we won't have to wait for the H1-B visa.

Thanks for the reply! There's not much details about us, other than what I already mentioned: 1. We are still engaged now and plan to get legally married as soon as possible and apply for G.C. together as a couple. Both of us are Indonesian citizens. 2. Both of us are currently working...

Hi everyone, I'm new here so please forgive if this question has been asked before. I & my fiancee currently hold H1-B status. We are planning to get married legally here in US and then go home to Indonesia to hold the ceremony. However, since h1-B visa application takes about 1 month, we...
