In the last few days there is little news/action about STRIVE act. When this act was proposed all of us got excited and promised to each other to do everything to make it a success. Some of us did make phone calls to lawmakers (as per IV directions) but after that everything seems cooled down. Why are we losing our focus now?
Yes the new Senate bill S.1035 (tightening H1B program) might have put some doubts in our minds; but can we continue our efforts on STRIVE and deal with S.1035 thru amendments when it comes to discussion. Discussion about S.1035 on our forum is fine and in fact we might have to do that to figure out how bad/good it is our specific issues. But in the meantime we have to continue our efforts on STRIVE act too.

Call your lawmaker drive ended on 6th April. Today is 9th April.
The next step was to schedule a meeting with our lawmakers. Many people are doing that. Did you try doing that?
In addition, today President Bush renewed call for immigration reform. Things will happen before the Summer break.

Hi All,
I just joined a new company and would like to use AC21 as I will be working on EAD. 140 is approved and 485 is pending for more than 180 days. New job is same or similar as per ONET job code.
My question is,
Is it necessary to involve your attorney or you can simply go ahead and file AC21 yourself?
I would like to what others have done? What kind of extra fees your attorney has charged for AC21?
Thanks

Hi,
We will be travelling to India and are looking to book Visa appointment. In Mumbai only first week of december is available. As we have to mail the documents, first week of december is not an option for us.
Has the Mumbai consulate opened the dates for December 2nd week and further or has the appointments been booked?

at one point. Your school should have an office of international students or such who would have clear understanding of scenarios such as yours. In addition, an immigration attorney needs to be consulted.
Why not use the IV attorney by asking questions?

Thanks in advance for answering my question:
I have had an EAD from past 2 years, but I also had a valid H1B I was working for company A on H1 and my GC is filed by Company B future employment(and hence the EAD)
- Company A went down last year, so I was laid off, so my H1 lapsed.
- I switched to Company B since I have an EAD through them.
- I am on Company B's payroll currently.
- The company A folks needed help after they were shutdown, I helped and was paid for hours. (doing same and similar work) but not issued a 1099...
Question - I will need to file taxes on those hours, in terms of immigration have I done anything out of ordinary here? I don't know if USCIS and IRS connecected, or I am just being paranoid here?
Thanks!

Hello,
My original H1B visa was issued to me on Oct 1st, 2010 and is valid till Sep 30th 2010.
I got a new job in 2009 and they applied for my H1 transfer. It was approved and the new dates on the new I797 are 10/01/2009 till 09/17/2012. I went to India after that and when I returned, I got a new I-94 off course which was stamped to be valid until Sep 30th 2010.
Now I am nearing the end of my original H1B visa issued by my previous employer and stamped on my passport this coming October. I am also planning to go to India in this coming June. Will I will have to get my visa renewal stamping done this time if I go to India? Will I need a new H1B stamp on my passport from my new employer on my passport to come back?
I really appreciate any words of wisdom from all you learned people on this forum. Thanks in advance!

The only benefit of F1 over H4 is you get to use OPT and CPT. Doing an internship may be very beneficial if you are doing a MBA. After that OPT helps you to settle in a job and deal with H1B filing quota risks.
Regarding the downside of F1, many universities don't give instate tuition eligibility to students on F1. On H-4, you may pay instate tuition to many universities. So, check with the university that you are planning to attend.
Also, it will be very difficult to get a F1 visa stamp on your passport if I140 has been filed for you in the past. Its not a problem if you don't want to travel outside the country during your studies.
my 2 cents...

Hi,
My 6 years of H1B will be up soon and my NIW I-140 petition is pending. I have received my EAD card though.
What options do I have - will I be able to extend my H1B for another year? Can I use the EAD card as it is without getting the I-140 approved, even though it is risky?
Thanks.

Who will be responsible for psychological torcher with less then 50% pay.
Socially isolated coz of not driving.
How one can see the big time loss of applicant.
3 years easily one can wait can say but why for more then 6 yers.
Who are talking time management that didn't applies here.
Who are talking productinve loss for applicant who can earn more then 80k coz of LC approval not who is responsible.
This shows the effect of retrogression!!

One required initial evidence (not medical) was not included in my recently submitted 485. Is it possible to send it now without receipt before 08/17?
If it's possible, what's the proper procedure?
Please kindly share your comments and experience.

Hello Everyone,
We are currently evaluating our options of starting a business on EAD, which should be coming within 3 months of filing of I485 in July. Does anyone know if I or my wife can start a business on EAD, are there any issues with it?
Thanks

I am in a complicated situation...
Approved labor (PD 2003 EB2) from company A (not employed with them). Filed 140 and 485 (self as primary and wife as dependent). Ability to pay RFE on 140 and then denial on 140 and 485. Currently, appealed the decision because needed to get H1 extension and case has reopened. My wife (with company B) had her 140 approved (EB3 with PD 2006) and so after the July bulletin filed for 485 (her as primary and me as dependent) because my case seeemed a little dicy.
So we both have multiple 485's filed (although the first one since the decision is not final on 140 technically they might not have started considering the 485). Read multiple places that legally you can have only one 485 approved but could have multiple 485 pending and withdraw the other once anyone has been approved. Is this true? or you CANNOT even have two 485 pending?What is the best thing for me do do right now?

I'm from the Philippines and Mar. 28, 2006 is my PD. My question now is, what if by June (by God's grace) my PD will be processed. How many more months should I wait before receiving my packet 4? considering that certain documents (ds230,nbi) need to be updated & be sent to them. A total of how many more months should I still need to wait before my embassy interview?
Hope u can really help me with this! thanks!
