Hi,
I have a question regarding changing L1 to H1-B visa. If someone comes to US on an L1 visa can he/she change to H1-B visa without going back to India and getting the new H1-B visa stamped? What is the process to remain in the US and changing the status from L1 to H1? Will
Again, I assume that in order to change from L1 to H1-B the H1-B cap rule applies.
Yes, you can do a change of status (COS) from L1 to H1 without going back to India for Visa stamping. Your H1 will come under the annual 65,000 H1 cap, as you might know the cap of this year is already over, you can apply for this COS come April 1 2008 and you can start working October 1 2008 with your H1. Please note you CANNOT start working for a new employer by just receiving a receipt number for your COS. You will need to get the actual H1-B approval notice. While applying for the COS you will also need to show you are currently employed and this can be done by submitting two most recent pay checks along with your other papers. Hope this helps!!

Don't you get one from your employer each year. I received paper and soft copy of W-2 (the paper copy has atleast 4 copies) each year.
I do not know about I485...
but it is not hard to get copies of W2. IRS has a service that will give you copies of your fed tax papers including W2s in 60 days. You can also ask you employer, they ususlay keep a copy.

I would also suggest that you post messages in all college/university/school cantenes and other such visible places where students gather. I have donated blood many times (>10 times) when a student and I am sure that you will find many students who are willing to help.
I have also helped organize blood donation camps and such when a student. In fact I am was trained volunteer - for whatever value 4 days of classroom training have. I'd suggest that you should avoid the "professional"/"regular" donors - as many of them would be drug addicts and "donate" blood for drug money. Schools and colleges are good places to avoid that crowd and still get a large number of prople willing to donate blood.

Dont we need to go to the home country for transfering from H4 to F1? Can we do it by staying in the US itself?
Thanks
You need to go your home country, if you want to get the visa stamped. Here you can apply for change of status to F1. In fact as you are member of Immigrationvoice, so most likely you have applied for green card. In such case you should not go home country to apply for F1. It could be problematic. The consular officer might even reject your F1 .

Here are the details:
Working with an employer since 2001, EB 3 PD Dec 2003, EAD in 2007, Still on H1b until Nov 10. Though had two masters i had filed under EB 3 (no one to balim it was just me...Small Company, not so called HR department and hired not so high profile/deligent lawyer (later found out that he was busy moving from west to east coast)
With the same employer, i have rec'd EB 2 approval, want to file I 140 and port EB 3 PD.
Need help/input with folloiwng from the gurus:
1) in EB 3 application the title is "Construction Engineer" with 4 lines of scope of work clarification with bachelors degree in civil engg. and no experience requirement. In EB 2 application, we have used same title "Construction Engineer" with 4 lines of scope of work, we had left 2 lines common (as earlier in EB3 application) and 2 new lines (related to environmental engg. since i have two env. engg. masters with BE in civil engg.)......this ad asked for MS in env. engg. or similar degree with no experience requirement.
Question: EB 2 Labor is approved, i am not sure what they check with i 140 application but does above sound reasonable (not that anything can be changed...but asking for an opinion here).
2) With premium processing, how long it takes to get I140 approved?
3) Do we just file for I 140 for EB 2 first, get it approved and then file letter/application ( i don't know the procedure/protocol) asking to port PD OR do we need file some sort of paper work with I140 to port PD.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance.

Can anyone please reply.
Your wife can apply for SSN and can work on using EAD. This will not affect your status. You can still work on H1.

OK, I guess you're starting out with RAW (since you save as TIFF). In that case maybe you need to download an update to the RAW plugin from Adode, it fixes an EXIF problem.

hello all,
Has anyone in Charlotte, NC got a extension on the Driver's license on the basis on the H1-B renewal application receipt.
My spouse's driver's license expires this month end. I have applied for h1-b/h4 renewal, yet to receive the application receipt.But wanted to know if anyone here in Charlotte,NC got a extension/grace (30days or 90days) on the basis of the receipt.
thanks.
I have a similar situation. My NC license is expiring and I am not sure if i will get the H1 renewal in time. Were you able to get it extened with the application receipt?
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
My 6 year H1B ends on April 17/2011 with Company A. Company A applied for my PERM on 15th Jan 2010.
Now I am planning to switch a company B(my interview is next week and I think I will clear that interview) to a Permanent JOB. If I get through that Company B. How soon they have to apply for my H1B transfer?
If company B apply PERM on June 2010(due to company B policy), is their any issue to get 7th yr of extension on June 2010 PERM? Or is it possible to apply for 7th year of extension Company A PERM application.
Please respond with your suggestions.
Thanks a lot in advance!
Regards
DK

Hi,
Should I go to Canada or Mexico and re-enter US with EAD/AP before my AP expires to start working on EAD and avoid any "out of status" issues ?
Does Canada Mexico ask for valid VISA and I-94 to get a visitor visa?
Should I go to India(my home country) and re-enter US before my AP expires to keep my status ?
It doesn't seem to me that you need to leave the US at all. You are authorized to stay here because you have a 485 pending. You can work using your EAD. The company should have reverified your I-9 form when the H-1B expired, assuming that you showed the H-1B paperwork to complete the I-9. However, since you have an EAD, you were not working without authorization.
However, you have a lawyer who has reviewed all your paperwork and presumably s/he knows something that I don't.
Whatever you do, you should NOT try to enter the US as a visitor when you really want to work here and be a permanent resident. That would be fraud.

Hello Pennsylvania Residents,
Please start calling your Senators:
1) Arlen Specter 202-224-4254
2) Here's the response I received from Rob Casey(D-PA)'s office
- (202) 224-6324 The staffer I spoke to(male) said a lot of members from IV had called, and he said they had put forth some important points. Looks like his office is really listening.

Thanks for sharing the info.
Was it first h1 renewal (meaning 3rd year) or second h1 renewal (meaning 7th year).
Did you do anything extra to avoid PIMS delay (like when you renewed your h1) did your employer keep another copy with a notice saying send to Kentucky CC
How long was the gap between h1 renewal received and you going for stamping?
It was first H1b ext. Company did not send second copy to Kentucky CC . On roadside window where VFS does preliminary check , vfs person put PIMS forbid in DS 156. Dont know what does it mean. also h1b renewal was in nov 2008 and I went for .stamping in feb 2009.
One more thing VFS mumbai told me that they will not allow even US born child ( even new born ) if they are not applicant. Only applicant child ( those who are for h4 ) allowed inside. at delhi situation was totally different.

Hello All,
I e-filed my first EAD renewal yesterday(07.12.2008). Mine is the classical case where i submitted in the window of August 2007 window and the AP and EAD was approved in October 2007.
My wife is an F-1 student and I concurrently filed on her behalf in Aug 2007.
Now while renewing my wife's EAD in the efile process, I did the following steps
1. Started a new I-765 for wife
2. Filled all the details.
3. Added I-131 also
i went ahead and efiled her application (both EAD and AP). Mine is the emplyment based I-485. Assuming that since she is dependent on me, I marked her application as family based I-485.
Reviewing the pdf, I saw that her documents need to go to the National Benefits Center, while mine is the Texas Service Center.
Did I commit a mistake? If so, how can I correct it.
Thanks for all your input on this one, and also the countless other experiences in the past when i have consulted this wonderful forum......
