Hello friends,
I am on L1B and working in US for last 3 1/2 years. My L1 visa will expire in Jun 2011. In between another company is ready to sponsor H1B for me and it will file it in April 2010. So here are my questions.
1. From when i can start working with new company on H1 ? From Jun 2010 (after getting H1 approval) or will have to wait till Oct 2010 ?
2. What will be the duration of my new H1B visa, considering i already used 4 years of my L1 ? Is it 6 years or only 2 years ?
Thanks for your expert advice.

I had a question about using using AC21.
Here is the scenario: Let us say I work for XYZ Company who applied for my 140 and 485. I have approved 140, H-1b, EAD and AP.
If XYZ laid me off or I left them for career progression or more money 180 days after my 485 was filed and 140 approved, what happens to my 485 application?
Wouldn't USCIS question that since my sponsoring employer does not exist anymore, who am I going to work for once I get my green card? or is this coverd under AC21?
Please advice!

1. The short answer is: Yes, you can most likely accept a one year intra-company transfer to India, and then transfer back to a position in the US with Company B without necessarily lengthening your GC process.
2. BUT, in order to file for AOS based on the existing approved LC/I-140 (EB2 or EB3??), you would have to return to the US to work in the same position at the same location for which the underlying LC was approved.
3. Alternatively, if your position in India meets the USCIS definition of managerial or executive, and you transfer back to the US to take on a position that also qualifies as managerial or executive, Compny B could file an EB1 I-140 on your behalf (maintaining the priority date of the prior I-140), thus substantially shortening or eliminating the quota wait.
4. If you cannot qualify in the EB1 category, and Company B transfers you back to a new position or new location in the US. You can retain your original priority date, but the company will have to apply for a new PERM LC and then file a new I-140 for you.
[NOTE: The above analysis assumes you (and your spouse, if any) were born in India and subject to the immigrant visa quota for India.]

My wife is on H4 and she is studying Masters and we already have EAD. She would like to do Internship and she still has 6 months to graduation and my question is
1) Is there any time restrictions for people to do internship (with GC based EAD)
2) After graduation, can she still continue with her internship (using EAD ofcourse) ?
3) If Yes for question 2, then for how long after graduation she can be an intern
Apreciate if someone can give feedback on this.
Thanks in advance,
Prakash

Hello IV members,
I have been watching IV forum during the last four weeks. I feel it is a great place to post questions and comments to help everybody in our long Immigration journey. I have a situation here.
I have filed my H-1B extension, my wife�s H-4 extension, my I-140 and our I-485 applications recently from my current address. I haven�t got the approvals yet for any of them. I am thinking of taking another project(with the same employer of course) next month and relocating to a new state.
I heard that immigration documents don�t get forwarded by USPS. My worry is about my wife�s H-4 extension approval notice as other communications will go either to my employer or lawyer. I know that we have an online form to update our new address to USCIS.
Did anybody run into problems of mails being sent to the address in the forms even after you filled out this form?
Please let me know what you think about relocation after filing immigration papers.

People who get labor approved in August, can they avail current window provided by USCIS and concurrently file 140/485?
Thanks for replies
Same thing happened with me - My labor was approved from Phily BEC on Mar 16th 07 and my company kept saying that didn't receive anything till Apr 16th 07...
Then i was impatient and called Phily BEC and they were very nice to explain me that it can take upto 1.5 months to 2 months for my company to receive via Lawyer. In fact it may take 1 month for Phily BEC to mail - he explained.
Eventually my company received the Labor papers on May 7th 07....
Hope this story helps.

IRS is very clear on this. SSN+ITIN couple filing jointly, no rebate for either of them. See this link http://www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/0,,id=179211,00.html
However, you should apply for an SSN for your wife ASAP. You may retroactively get this 2007 rebate when you file 2008 taxes.
Using your wife's SSN for tax purposes will not impact her legal status in any way.
Is it true that H4 spouse, who do not have SSN are not eligible for tax rebate if while filing a joint tax return for 2007 ITIN is used for spouse.
It seems ITIN is given to illegal aliens too and hence it is not possible for IRS to determine which ITIN holders are legal and which are illegal. Thus they are not going to give tax rebates to ITIN holders.
My wife is on H4 and has a EAD/AP. Should I apply for SSN to receive the tax rebates? But since the tax rebates are based on 2007 tax return I will have to file the tax return using her SSN to get the rebates.
Also will SSN affect her H4 status if EAD is not used?
What do you guys think?

Please someone tell me whether Ac21 portability 180 days rule applies from the day USCIS receives the application or whether it starts from day you get I-485 Receipt #????
In our case USCIS recieved our application on July 2nd and we have not received receipt # yet. so 180 day clock starts ticking on July 2nd?

An H-1 would give you more flexibilty to change employers once you are here. However, the earliest that you could begin work here in H-1 status would be Oct. 1st of this year. With an L-1, you could presumably come right away. If an L-1A is possible, that could pave the way for a significantly easier and faster route to a green card.
Also, it is possible that in the not too distant future Congress could pass legislation to allow same sex spouses to confer derivative immigration benefits on each other. Check out the website: www.immigration equality.org

I was wondering if anyone has any info on the job
market for international students in NY. I will be graduating
in Dec and will be on the job market soon.
Some of my friends say that there are jobs to be had but
not many are keen on sponsoring H1, even non-tarp firms.
Can anyone confirm/refute this?
market is tough but dont give up & just sit back though - for what its worth look aggressively & hopefully you have opt for 1+year available so they get a chance to look at you
