My previous job was in the hotel Industries Clarion Hotel recently changed to Quality Inn . The company was showing loss for the last 3 years and now this year it is showing some profit. The hotel property is worth 6 million which recently appraised, besides this the owner has an asset of 6 million or more. Also my H1-b get expired this July 2008 ( 6 th year) In such circumstance what is the best option for me

1. File the motion of appeal, If so what are my chances.

2. Can I file from a new company a fresh new application. ( I am a consultant working for a client in NJ My client is willing to file my Greencard who has a turnover of 45 million annualy

3. My wife is on H4 for the last 3 years, can She file for L1 visa on her father's company who is having a profitable manufacturing business in India for the last 15 years. and she is one of the directors.

Jay,

See my thread "I-140 denied (ATP), urgent help please". You may get some answers.
You may probably not get a H1 visa transfer as your 6th is abt to complete(or got completed) and after that H1 extns are possible only if your GC's labor is atleast pendning for 1 year, and that too with same company.
I would work out options with the company that did your I-140 as i did and came out of it using MTR in 20 days(I was lucky to get in 20 days).
My company does L1s many times and I think she cannot apply for L1 unless she worked in that company atleast for an year in the last 3 years. She need not be currently employed in that company, but its preferable, but she must have, in the last 3 years. And that company MUST have US operations. Pls check the L1 requirements,
GO TO a very well reputed attorney who you think is capable.
Good luck,
Sunnyz.

Answers below:
1. You should file a Motion to Reconsider within 30 days. That may re-instate the I-485 and it's ancillaries. Please note that unless you furnish enough supporting evidence the I-140 ruling cannot be reversed.
2. Technically a new employer can sponsor your green card as all employment based GC is for future employmnet. However you need a temporary visa to stay in tyhe U.S. Since you exhausted all 6 years on H-1B that avenue is closed and require an alternative.
3. L-1 can be an option for your wife, in this case you are authorized to work.
4. Same as #2.
One question, how come your wife is one of the directors of her father's company while on H-4?
