I am on H1B in USA and am an Indian citizen. I have been divorced and about to get remarried. My would be has a natural born kid of from her previous marriage before her husband expired. I will marry her legally per Hindu custom and then complete the registration after that. I will adopt her kid also as per proper procedure.
This is NOT like regular adoption. Usually when a couple can't have any kid of their own, they adopt someone. Or despite having a kid they adopt another kid etc. In these cases getting an H4 is very tough, or so I heard.
Shall I be able to get an H4 for this biological kid of my would be spouse? Again, she is a biological kid of her.

As you can see in my profile, my I-140 is approved and i'm waiting to file for I-485. I just went through a position change within my company via the company lawyer. The way the lawyer explained to me was that he did file a new H1-B petition for the new job and also i did receive my I797-A action notice from USCIS.
The lawyer had to file a new petition (I-129) based upon my approved I-140 and the most importatn action during this process was to phrase the job description in a way that the new job description was more than 90 percent the same as the I-140.
Moreover, the thing i'm nervous about is that no AC-21 was filed in my case. The lawyer did mention that there is no need to file AC-21 as i have not reached into the I-485 stage and that AC-21 is only applicable after the fact that I-485 has been filed.
Hopefully, my experience clears a few things for your case. You can PM in case you want additional details.

The AC21 is for job description being same or similar.
For example "Programmer Analyst" = "Computer Systems Analyst" as per the code mapping.. But if one takes "Senior Software Engineer" job.. with the same job description as per the approved labor which had title "Programmer Analyst"
will it be ok

I-134 was the most confusing form for me too.
I let my lawyer fill it for me, and she did tick the "intend to" but did not fill the area in question.

Hello everyone,
I am in a very bad condition n would appreciate anyone who can advice me on same. I had been out of status for about 1 yr n 2 months following my denial of I 140 n expiration of H1b, n currently residing in US. Now i have a new approval for H1b from USCIS, a month back. I was instructed by my employer to go back to my native country n get approval from from the consulate n re enter US. My lawyer instructed that i will be barred at the consulate or at the airport due to the history of over stay in US upon re-entering . Is there any one who have heard experinces of this kind ever? plz share your knowledge... thanks
Lawyer is right. If you leave the country, you will be barred for 10 years from re-entry if you accumulated more than 1 year of "unlawful presence" ("out of status" is different and it is not a such a big deal to lose status as long as you do not accumulate unlawful presence). If you stay, you may be able to eventually get green card.
Can you provide more details regarding your timeline? Was I-485 filed? If you had pending I-485, "unlawful presence" counts from the date I-485 has been denied, not from the date H1 has expired.

Hi,
If I enter using H1-B/L1visa then I-94 validity end date will be ususally till the visa expiration date.
Suppose if I am entering US on Advanced Parole(I-131), what will be the validity enddate for I-94? If suppose they give for 1 year how to extend that if i am not going out-off US?
Thanks
If you use AP to enter, your I-94 expiry date will be 1 year from the date of entry. You do not have to extend I-94, you are in AOS while you are in the country as long as your 485 is pending.

in the end someone is talking sense.....
Yes its is a very good development....especially a hispanic lobby group is saying this.
Still other allied group need to eventually come to the conclusion and only then it can
happen.
The Hispanic lobby is agitating for the Dream Act which is held up by CIR.
But fight is not over yet. The nursing lobby is also focusing on this.
If piecemeal happens, a major fight will erupt between
Eb2/3 crowd and the nursing lobby over who gets to feast on the recaptured visas.
Nursing lobby wants the recaptured visas first.

NIW have to stick to the field in which they got their waiver from labor, as far as I understand. All comes down to how the NIW I-140 application/support letters were worded.

Hi,
I will be going for H1B stamping in feb/March at Mumbai Consulate.
In 2001 my F1 visa got rejected 3 times because I showed that I have sister in USA.
My sister is in still in USA. Now while taking H1B appointment in form I have again to mention yes or no (for the Que do you have any relatives in USA)
What I should do? What will be the effect if I said No? Do you think, VO will ask me that your F1 got rejected because you had sister in USA? So now did she came back?
Please reply me ASAP.
Thanks,
As far as i know no us consulate has right to reject H1b unless u have fasle docs or involved in wrong activities. Also DO NOT GIVE/WRITE any FALSE information about you to them or in other words DO NOT LIE to them .
F1 rejection has NO baring on H1b.
hope this helps.

Too many times such stuff has been said and always proved to be hot gas from from some politicians mouth.
All this while EB suffers.
An illegal is still going to do a $8/hr job, whether you give him a green card or not. He is still not going to pay taxes because he will get paid in cash. All that will change is that the illegal will be able to send sponsorship for his 50,000 cousins and uncles.
EB will continue to suffer..as always.
illegals often pay tax actually. They work with fake (made up) ssn numbers and the tax
is sent to IRS under that SSN. Lately in bush 2nd term and now Obama they are sending no match letters because the sin umber and the date of birth and name that is reported to IRS does not match with what they have in their system.
However CIR is an impossible task in 2010. Other that some political show by Hispanic Caucus, it has no purpose.

On this case, I am getting mixed anwsers
Employer's lawyer is saying that i can continue to work since have valid I-94 and they are going to appeal. Lawyer called USCIS officers and USCIS officers confirmed this ( !!!).
Second lawyer is saying that i should stop working on denied petition.
Once you apply for appeal or motion your H1B peition status changed from 'Denied' to 'Pending' and you may continue to work for employer. - this is my guess
In fact, I am planning to get advice from murhty too...
Any thoughts on this.
RG said u can work.

Your H1B is tied to your current company. If your new employer wants to hire you, they have to file a separate H1B for you.
So your answer should be. "I need H1B sponsorship to work."

you should get receipt within a week, so there is not much difference in time.
You can join new co as soon as USCIS recieves your petition, but most people play safe and wait until the receipt notice arrives.

You dont have to be employed by the employer for 180 days. All you need is 485 pending for 180 days. So in the letter you can mention that 485 had been pending for more than 180 days.
The only catch is if USCIS question about your "intention" at the time of filing 485. (Since you didnt work for the company after 485, and now specifically says dont intent to..).
At the time of filing 485 you should have proper intention to join the original employer.
Maybe somebody else who went through similar experience can help u.
AC21 invocation letters typically state that you're using AC21 for switching employment after 180 days. What argument should be used to invoke AC21 in my case?
Thanks!
