thx very much for the reply..
but about my F1 status I140 approval, is it a violation ? Can I submit I140 while I am still in F1 status?
Thanks again for the reply...
Since I140 petition is for future employment, it shouldn't matter that you were on F1 when it was filed. However, you may have a problem with adjustment of status. You may have to do consular processing if you are still on F1. But since you've changed to H1, I don't think it matters again. Could you consult an attorney or pose this question at the next attorney conference call?

And Yeah i do have a new Passport now
Doesn't your H1 renewal come with a valid I-94? Please check that. If not, Why don't you go to the local office in person, I am sure they will adjust it. Try going to the border it does not hurt, I thgink the rule is 30 days as mentioned in your other thread.

Does she need her H4 approved to have her prospective employer file the I 129? (or) Can she just provide the notice of action she received for her H4 extension filing along with her I 129 to show that she is maintaining status?
Any one??
This is what the 129 instructions specify. I think that you will have to wait until the new I94 with the new dates is issued. Hopefully she will get it before April 1.
Change of Status.
In addition to the initial evidence for the classification you are requesting, a petition requesting a change of status for an alien in the United States must be submitted with a copy of the employee's(s) Form I-94, Nonimmigrant Arrival/Departure Record.

My sympathies with your situation. If u can't go to India can't u use a service like mymaninindia.com to get you marriage certificate?
Also the best person to consult would be your lawyer as to whether u might get an extension to file your reply.
Sorry layman answer hope it helps

how we can do it? we didn't get anything last time. I have wife and 2 kids. So it will be $1800.... when I checked last time it was said that for those who didn't get last time will get it automatically when they file return for 2008. Anybody knows more about it? Please let us know.
Or I guess we can always use Tax Firms also.
If your kids have SSN then you will probably get around 1200, from my guess. I am sure you will not get for your spouse, for lack of SSN.

Got the status update email from USCIS stating a card has been issued for my 485 application.
I am not married yet. What are the implications if I get married to a citizen of india residing in India.
Kindly refer me to appropriate material if you know of any.
Thanks,
Akshay
Surprised to see that you were unware of this. Getting GC is painful process as we all know. There are three situations
1) Don't file I-485 till you get married. Risk, you might have already used 6 years on H1.
2) File your I-485 and get quickly married , then you can add your spouse. Do a court marriage in US and later you can do a marriage ceremony in India.
3) File your I-485 and get green card with out having chance to add your spouse
Since you fall in category 3, your situation may be worst.
Couple of options
1) If the girl(or guy :)) is in US, absolutely no problem. Only thing is if girl is already in US, you will get lot of family pressure from girl side.Have to compromise on lots of things. May be will become a house husband.
2) Girl from India, now you have to find a really smart girl who can get admission to universities or pass TOFEL GRE etc with flying colors. Then long distance affair starts. Girl in city X studying guy in city Y. Meeting once in a month. Lossing lot of money on commute and mental peace.The girl will have now her own friend circle and over period of time she might start liking someone else. Based on real situations.
3) Move to Canada and apply for Canadian citizenship. That's easier to get and easier to bring spouse there. But again you won't be able to bring her to US
4) Wait for 5 years. Who will want to wait for you 5 years.
Best Option
Return to your home country and enjoy life there. Believe me you won't have never any regret in life. It's just not worth for all the pains and miseries it bring in one's life. GC : Grievance Card.
Good luck with whatever you decide.
Cheers
Happy Independence Day 15th Aug

Dude, You can use I-94 card as a toilet paper when you take the very first exit in Canada. You are leaving for good! Do not worry about it. Meanwhile, congratulations for taking this bold step and moving to Canada after 6 years of H1-B. I wish you well.

Similar situation...
I am getting married in the 1st week of Sep and am planning to get my spouse by mid Sep.
Can someone please suggest if I am fine, if I apply alone for I-485 around Jul30(and not for EAD and AP??) and add my spouse around sep20th. I-140 approval is pending and have a valid visa till '08.
How long does it take for the I-485 'approval' and is 2-3 months a safe window to add ones spouse?
Any suggestions and help with my planning are greatly appreciated. :)
1) Does one have to be physically present in the US to apply for I-485? Can I send the marriage certificate and any other papers reqd from both of us in Sep 1st week from India (hopefully PD would be current)
2) Is it just the marriage cert that is reqd for filing I-485 together. Assuming I am here and have the marriage cert, can I apply for my spouse even if she is in India.
Thanks.

Hi ,
I received RFE on my I-131 application asking for all the I-94's that is being issued to me.
I had been in and out of US many times and there's lot if I-94's involved and I don't anything with me except the latest. What options do I have?... Also couple of times during my earlier trip (initial visits in US), the AIR Line didn't even take the I-94 from my Passport which ultimately I lost.
My Passport has all the entries indicating my Date in and Date out...
Gurus - What do you advise on my case...
Anybody's input are highly appreciated and I know we could somehow get the I-94 copies by requesting USCIS. (That is time consuming)... I have to respond in next five to ten days...
What options do I have?...
Thanks.
Send them copies of all the I-94s you have along with a letter stating entry exit from US. Include airline tickets if you still have them.

Hello friends,
Of late everybody is talking about bad economy. I mean its all over the TV and newspapers. Apparently we are in a recession since past one year (since Dec 2007).
However, odd it may though sound, I don't see any real economic slowdown in IT sector. I mean all my friends and acquaintances in IT industry in the US and India are retaining their jobs. I recently talked to my IT recruiter and she told me that as far as she is concerned this year has been like any other years. Bit sluggish at the year end, but loads of requirements lined up for January next year.
Am I the only one who is feeling this way, or others also sensing the same thing. Maybe the real jolts are still lying in the future, in the coming year. Or may be its just a hoax. I would love to know other people's observation on this strange anomaly between what is being reported in the media, and what is being observed on the ground.

I have lived in French, for more than one year, and the problem was that the French has take the communique version on the immigration, means under class of citizen. That`s the real problem. It`s funny that nobody speaks about what happens in England, where they decided for a full integration or in Spain, or even in Nederland, no riots down there, how is possible?

The following has been extracted from H1-B is still valid with AP entry US? - Yahoo! Answers (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20071214234832AA7fOR3)
Normally, an alien who has filed for Adjustment of Status in the US must apply for Advanced Parole and use the Advanced Parole to come back to the US in order to keep his / her Adjustment of Status application pending.
H-1 and L-1 holders are the only exceptions to this rule.
Aliens in H-1B status who have a pending Adjustment of Status application do not need to apply for Advance Parole to go abroad if they fulfill certain conditions. As long as the H-1 B visa holder maintains his/her H-1 B status before leaving the U.S., he/she may apply for an H-1B visa to re-enter the U.S. to work for his / her H-1B sponsoring employer after his/her travel abroad.
When he/she comes back with a valid H-1B visa to continue to work for his/her H-1B sponsoring employer, he/she does not need to be paroled. Rather he/she can be admitted under H 1B status as long as they're still employed by the H-1B petitioner.
If they choose to be paroled, then they are not H-1B anymore, and if they had dependents, those dependents cannot be H-4's anymore. It's your choice. Use the valid visa if you're still with the petitioner or use the parole. If you are paroled into the U.S., you will need an EAD to work.

It doesn't matter...if it is substitution case or not. Everybody deserves a fair chance of the pie.
Hopefully no one replies to your post as yours is substitution case.
I think nchendica should contact his lawyer and ask them to reevaluate your degree and these rejections have been succesfully won. You can search similar cases on immigration.com website. Contact a good lawyer; it is still not too late.
