Guys, Suggest me a good consulting company. My employer is OK until now and he just started demanding money even for H1 extensions. I am seriously thinking of moving. Please suggest good desi consulting companies who can support my GC and keep min billing. I have a very good project in hand
Hi I am in 4th year of working with a cosulting company. Their response is little slow, but committed to what ever they say. Overall i like the present company.
It is Paradigm Infotech based in Maryland. If you want to check out take a number from the website and call them directly.

Hi Antonio,
Great stuff!!!
I love no. 2, 3 and 4.
2 for the dynamic composition, 3 just cracked me up because the percussion instruments are so domineering and 4 seems pure concentration. 2 and 4 could maybe be cropped slightly, but that's very minor.
Cheers,
Stefanie

Can some one please confirm. I hope I am not confusing everyone here. I am filing my I 140 now, I want to be sure that this is safe.....
thanks for the kind replies...
Yes is surely possible. To get a reply from the appeals process takes years. What your lawyer suggesting is a good option. Hope you have strong points to over come the cause of the last denial. In case is was due to ability to pay, make sure you are getting paid atleast the Prevailing wage and submit that pay stubs that prove the same.
Best of luck with your filing.

If you think the price is to go up, then you can buy them at current market value of 26 and hold them. You don't have to pay 30 for it :-)
Options are only valuable if they are more than the exercisable price, if not the paper is worth nothing.
Why do you want to buy the options at that price? Can't you just buy it from the open market and that way option will exxpire and there will be that many less open shares.

This one was posted originally at http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/archive/index.php/t-20450.html. Just replace USVI with Hawaii.
USVI is a US territory hence, you will be able to fly in with the drivers license. They do not take your I 94 back. Just to make sure you are in US territorial waters, don't swim or wade out more than 5 feet out in the water. You could be swimming in international waters without proper US exit authorization. Your entry to shore could be subject to unauthorized landing. A water tight bag lugged around your fanny with passport/I94/H1B/paystubs/employer letters/DL(Driver License)/EAD(Employment Authorization Document)/AP(Advanced Parole)/receipts/etc etc. should keep you safe though. Just keep it away from the sharks. Enjoy your vacation.:D:D:D

One of my friends got B1 Visa(business visa, it�s valid for 10 years) through a company AAA in January 2008, still he is working for the same company in India, till now he didn't use his B1.
He applied H1-B through a company BBB, recently he received all his H1-B documents, his H1-B company suggested him to come to U.S on B1 and they want to file an amendment to change his status to H1 after coming to US.
My friend want to resign the company in this month and he want to go for training after resigning his job, it will take 2 months for completing the training.
He is planning to come to U.S in February 2009 on B1.
Could any one please help us with your valuable suggestions for the following questions?
Is it possible to come to U.S on B1 even after resigning the job?
Is there any possibility that the company revoke his B1?
What are the documents required to come to U.S on B1?
Thanks in Advance
I would strongly advise not to do this...
This can create problems at multiple levels:
- If at port of entry, he fails to explain his reason to visit; and CBP officer finds out that he intends to work; there can be 3 or 10 year bar for entering US what so ever.
- If he enters on B1 visa and files for change of status to H1 soon after entering; this is very likely to be denied and he will be deported for misrepresentation
- If he does get change of status to H1B; he will have trouble getting it stamped in future at a consulate in india (on the same grounds: initial entery on B1 was fraudulant).
- If he does not have any of the above issues; this will hunt him down during GC processing; and his GC will be denied on the same grounds.

Your signature says I 140 was approved, when was it approved and does that mean the USCIS website never updated the status of your I 140?
or was it showing I140 approved before and now it's showing pending?
This is my friend's case not mine. This is mentioned when I first described the case.
Thanks!

I haven't come here for a while and don't know what's happening here. Several weeks ago, we said we would be happy if congresses pass CIR. How come we don't want CIR to be passed now?
Please read the IV Core groups analysis on the CIR bill...which is totally different than the CIR thhat was passed by the previous Senate in 2006

I'm from the UK and we've now been told I cannot leave the US and join him, until I have my advance parole which could take 3 to 4 months.
Smerchas...Are you sure about what this? From what I remember, you have to be in the country when you apply for your AP...But there is no necessity that you need to be here when it is approved !
Technically, you can ask your attorney or the person who is living at the address where the AP document would be sent by the USCIS, and request them to forward the approved AP to your then current address...That way, you don't have to stay in the country while USCIS processes your application...
Ofcourse, the flip side is, if your AP is denied for any reason, you would have to go to the US consulate in wherever country you are and request the special admission letter...

Hey guys, can anyone help? I�ve been disconnected from the site for a while due to personal reasons. Does anyone know approximately the following?
1- Approximate PERM processing times (from filing time) for EB2
2- Approximate I-485 and I-140 processing times from filing date for EB2
3- Approximate length of the entire process (from filing PERM to getting I-485 approved) for EB2
4- Are I-140 and I-485 still being filed concurrently?
I know there are trackers, but I find them all confusing!
Sorry for the many questions. This would help me a lot! Thanks in advice for any input guys!
(or send me a private message if easier, thanks!)
Hey jamie,
if any one knew this answers they will become immigration consultant trust me and will make big bucks.... USCIS has miraculous ways to function any thing can happen any time.......

[QUOTE=tinuverma;193745]Hello guys,
Firstly happy diwali to everyone at IV
Quick background:
H1-B valid till jan-2010
Application for GC filed on July 23rd 2007 (reached USCIS - DHL i think)
All checks encashed on oct 17th 2007
Received fingure printing notice on Nov 6th for both - wife and I
Received EAD for both nov 8th.
I work for a consulting company like many others here. This puts me in a spot, if I call the lawyer and ask for advise, he says he is representing my company and cannot answer certain questions. I cannot ask my consulting company for obvious reasons. Hence turning to you guys for help.
Now here is my question:
my priority date is sept 2005. With the dates above, when is it safest to change jobs?
-- If you take my advise. Its not advisable to switch jobs now. Starting July 23rd, count 180 days before even you decide to make a jump using AC12.
Also what is the reason my lawyer (or paralegal) indicated that it is better if I change jobs only after getting my green card?
-- If you move jobs using EAD, then if for any reason if your 485 is denied then you will be out of status and have to leave US.. But if you are employed with same employer on H1 and if your 485 is rejected, you are still safe.. can again file for second 485 petition. Dont have to leave US right away.
When I asked if it is ok to travel on H1/H4 to India ...I was informed that it is better not to travel until all this is over. Is there something I am missing?
-- If you receive AP, its ok to travel if your passport is not with H1 stamping.
Once you get back, you will be stamped as parollee.
Why is it not safe to travel while on EAD and yet to have the GC in hand?
-EAD has got nothing to do with your travel plans. You either need H1 stamped passport or a AP notice.
Last and most imp, is there any on when I can hope to get the actual green card?
-- Dont know the answer.. Its like a lottery.

The original poster "getrdone" wrongly pressed panic button. There is no change from 2004 thru till now. I went to mexico several times for stamping. I have seen several people who got stamping for H1-H1 & F1-H1 (Safe), H4-H1 & B1-H1 (Lucky guys)...In anycase, taking Mexican Visa (though absolutely not mandatory) is advised
The change of status cases (F1 -> H1, H4 -> H1 etc) are not allowed anymore at Mexico. I think it went into effect last month.

Can a Canadian Citizen work in the USA without a visa ? How easy is that ?
If you are going to stay 2 yrs in Canada, you might as well spend 1 more yr and become a Canadian citizen.
I actually have a similar question. I am in the exact same situation. The question is that in this case if you have an H1 stamped in your passport, is it ok to travel to US on that H1 ? or would you need a B2 tourist visa to travel ?
I am asking since technically you are employed by same employer but you are getting paid by Candian payroll not US Payroll.

You should try this option, in one of the immigration lawyer's forum they mentioned about this. If you have this you can get 3 yrs extension, that saves lot of moeny and time. It's worth exploring this option. Please share with us, if you are able to succed with this option.
u can use G-639 i.e. FOIA (DOJ) to get a copy of the approved I-140, Labor.etc. I do not know of anyone thats used a I-824.....cos sometimes USCIS also mails a copy of I-140 to the lawyer as well!
I have filed G-639 in May, 2007. I recently got a response that my case is on number 40,000 out of a list of 80,000 cases.

The only reason why the House hasn't given in on CIRA is because of the incessant pressure of restrictionists such as NUmbersUSA activists. Look at how active they are. Granted one has to be a Citizen to vote, but the first amendment gives us ALL the right to free speech and express ourselves. That is why IV is legal, and that is why the least we can do is a webfax campaign regarding Skilled Immigration (SKIL bill) AND show up at local meetings with Congressman.
Believe me, if we don't speak up, no one is going to do it for us. People like me with 02 priority dates are going to wait atleast two more years, folks who filed in 05 may get to wait 5+ years for their GC. This is the way things look currently.
The Illegals like the Chamber of Commerce, the big lobby Ag, Hotel/Travel, Construction, Meat-Packing, Industries, the Catholic Church and big ethic lobbies like MALDEF, La Raza, besides millions of hispanic votes.
The other side also has the power of millions of votes and a LOUD VOICE.
We have nothing compared to them. You can see we are small fish...that is why we need to do all we can to make ourselves heard.

Please take some actions today .... and prepare for many more actions next week
DEAR SUPPORTERS OF LOWER OVERALL IMMIGRATION,
Thanks to all of you who -- in the two weeks since the Senate voted for a massive immigration increase and amnesty -- have been regularly checking your Action Buffet for new actions and who have been responding to the several Fax Alerts that we have sent you.
Now, it is time to really start turning up the heat again.
I'm asking each one of you to do at least one of the following TODAY.
Members of Congress are feeling great pressure from our side, but we must really escalate that pressure if we are to totally block all the immigration increases in the Senate bill. Thus far, the Republican majority in the House of Representatives has stood firm against the national Republican Party leaders and President Bush. We have a lot of hope that the House can hold the line against the amnesty/open borders plan of President Bush, the Republican National Committee and nearly all Senate Democrats. BUT IT WILL HAPPEN ONLY IF ALL OF YOU DO WHAT YOU DID IN APRIL AND MAY.
There are a lot more of YOU than there used to be.
Last Saturday, our Activist Membership crossed the 200,000 mark! That means we have almost 100,000 more of you working together in this cause than we had last December when we pressured for toughening amendments to the House-passed H.R. 4437.
Action No. 1: Send all the faxes that have accumulated on your Action Buffet corkboard.
We can tell from the number of faxes that have been ordered over the last two weeks that many of you have taken a much-deserved break from activism and not been sending the new faxes we have posted on your customized corkboard.
Please go now to:
www.NumbersUSA.com/actionbuffet
Action No. 2: Tell us when and where your Senators and Representative are holding town hall meetings
You should see a thumb-tacked note on your corkboard asking for this information. When you click on the note, you will go to a page that will give you good instructions for how to track down this information.
There is no central place to find out when and where Members of Congress expose themselves to the voters. In fact, they try to keep it as secret as possible because they don't really want to have to hear directly from you.
That is why the town hall meeting part of our Action Buffet is so very important.
NumbersUSA doesn't have the staff to dig out potential meetings of all 535 Members of Congress. We MUST rely on you to send us that info on your own Members so we can share with everybody else from your state and District.
Click on corkboard note to send us town hall meeting information
Action No. 3: Attend any meeting or event where your Senators or Representative are expected to appear
Nothing you do will be as powerful as attending in person one of the events where your Members of Congress appears, and then asking a question or making a statement about immigration -- or even holding up a sign giving your view on immigration -- or applauding another voter who expresses your opinion on immigration.
You all have become great faxers and phoners. But we must have many, many more of you personally confronting the Members of Congress -- especially the ones who have Immigration Grades ranging from F-minus to B.
See your Members' immigration grades at:
www.CongressGrades.org
If you see a thumb-tacked note on your corkboard that announces a meeting of one of your Members of Congress, PLEASE LOOK AT IT -- and make plans to attend.
Get some friends to go with you to ensure that you will have a cheering section.
And be sure to use the feedback devices on our page that allow you to easily let us know you are planning to attend and to give us a report when you return.
Action No. 4: Call some friends or let us know that you plan to visit the local office of your Representative or one of your Senators next week
These Members of Congress must have voters in their local offices putting the pressure on their staffs to block the Senate amnesty and immigration increases.
If you are interested in doing this but don't want to go alone, send us an email through our Help Desk form and we will put you in touch with other people in your area who are trying to make a trip.
PLEASE NOTE: We have a new way of your communicating to us in which you cannot just hit REPLY to our Alerts anymore.
We are not trying to make things difficult for you. But with 200,000 members, our staff simply has not been able to keep up with your emails. We have hired two interns for the summer to help Jon and Jeremy. But we also must create a better system of categories if we are to provide the level of service we once did.
So, you should always communicate with us by:
(a) clicking on the CONTACT US link in the navigation bar at the top of our web pages. That takes you to the HELP FORM link.
(b) or putting this address in your directory and regularly using it:
www.numbersusa.com/helpform
On the Help Form page, you choose the category in which you are writing and send us an email that way.
Thousands of people have already started using this form in the last month, and it is accelerating our ability to respond.
======================================
Thanks for jumping into this TODAY before you move into your weekend family and recreation activities.
Then, please, plan to do something Monday and during the rest of the week.
We will be sending you additional guidance on how best to stop the amnesty -- or at least keep it from passing this month. The longer we can delay this, the better our chances are of winning.
Thank you,
-- ROY
Believe me, if we don't speak up, no one is going to do it for us. People like me with 02 priority dates are going to wait atleast two more years, folks who filed in 05 may get to wait 5+ years for their GC. This is the way things look currently.

Action No. 2: Tell us when and where your Senators and Representative are holding town hall meetings
You should see a thumb-tacked note on your corkboard asking for this information. When you click on the note, you will go to a page that will give you good instructions for how to track down this information.
There is no central place to find out when and where Members of Congress expose themselves to the voters. In fact, they try to keep it as secret as possible because they don't really want to have to hear directly from you.
That is why the town hall meeting part of our Action Buffet is so very important.
NumbersUSA doesn't have the staff to dig out potential meetings of all 535 Members of Congress. We MUST rely on you to send us that info on your own Members so we can share with everybody else from your state and District.

Action No. 3: Attend any meeting or event where your Senators or Representative are expected to appear
Nothing you do will be as powerful as attending in person one of the events where your Members of Congress appears, and then asking a question or making a statement about immigration -- or even holding up a sign giving your view on immigration -- or applauding another voter who expresses your opinion on immigration.
You all have become great faxers and phoners. But we must have many, many more of you personally confronting the Members of Congress -- especially the ones who have Immigration Grades ranging from F-minus to B.
See your Members' immigration grades at:
www.CongressGrades.org
If you see a thumb-tacked note on your corkboard that announces a meeting of one of your Members of Congress, PLEASE LOOK AT IT -- and make plans to attend.
Get some friends to go with you to ensure that you will have a cheering section.
And be sure to use the feedback devices on our page that allow you to easily let us know you are planning to attend and to give us a report when you return.
Action No. 4: Call some friends or let us know that you plan to visit the local office of your Representative or one of your Senators next week
These Members of Congress must have voters in their local offices putting the pressure on their staffs to block the Senate amnesty and immigration increases.
If you are interested in doing this but don't want to go alone, send us an email through our Help Desk form and we will put you in touch with other people in your area who are trying to make a trip.
PLEASE NOTE: We have a new way of your communicating to us in which you cannot just hit REPLY to our Alerts anymore.
We are not trying to make things difficult for you. But with 200,000 members, our staff simply has not been able to keep up with your emails. We have hired two interns for the summer to help Jon and Jeremy. But we also must create a better system of categories if we are to provide the level of service we once did.
So, you should always communicate with us by:
(a) clicking on the CONTACT US link in the navigation bar at the top of our web pages. That takes you to the HELP FORM link.
(b) or putting this address in your directory and regularly using it:
www.numbersusa.com/helpform
On the Help Form page, you choose the category in which you are writing and send us an email that way.
Thousands of people have already started using this form in the last month, and it is accelerating our ability to respond.
======================================
Thanks for jumping into this TODAY before you move into your weekend family and recreation activities.
Then, please, plan to do something Monday and during the rest of the week.
We will be sending you additional guidance on how best to stop the amnesty -- or at least keep it from passing this month. The longer we can delay this, the better our chances are of winning.
Thank you,
-- ROY
