1.Is it mandatory to have a pending 485 application in order to get H1b
extended beyond 6 years using I-140 approval?
2.Do I need to be with the employer who filed PERM in order to get the H1b
extended beyond 6 years using I-140 or can a new employer file for my
extension using the approved I-140( without having a pending 485
application ) ?
Greatly apprecite any response...
thanks

One more day gone. A few more to go. Really what more can you do ? You can't do beyond a point. The best suggestion would be to get more PEOPLE knowledgeable about this issue.
The other day I came across one of my acquaintences who is doing pretty good in his area, who came to the US in the mid 70's.We were discussing about things happening in our community, I casually mentoned to him about the Legal immigration issue and he was surprised to hear the EXISTENCE of these issues. That surprises me that so many Indians, who have migrated to the US over past 30 years are either unaware of these issues or just want nothing to do with it. But I'm sure there is a sizeable number who would want to chip in the cause.
Get in touch with people you know and tell them to send faxes to respective senators, call or just support the cause.

i am on h4 and this was the first time a company filed for my h1b. so would that be ok if company "B" files for my h1b with h1b filed with company "A" is pending with RFE.
Yes. I would refer to Co A's filing in the 2nd one, so that CIS doesn't think you're trying to deceive them or hide anything.

I have I-140 approved and also based on I-140, I have 3 years H1B approved which expires in 2010.
My I-485 was rejected and I have re-submitted which is obviously pending and not further news on that (refiled on 10/10/07 at CSC)
I have following questions:
1. If I want to travel to INDIA for 6-8 weeks, Is there any problem?
2. Can I get H1B VSIA stampled at BOMBAY?
3. Do I need any other document except H1B approval notice & I-140 approval notice?
4. Do I need to mention about I-485 been filed?
Please help. Thank you in advance.

neither lawyer nor employer received Labor Hard Copy until today. I missed I-140 Premium
Processing because of Hard copy.
I signed one page of the original document (which the employer/lawyer should send to you)
before filing your I-140.

Hello,
My wife and I have a pending AOS, and have our EADs.
My priority date for EB-2 is September 2004.
I plan to go back to school in Spain - starting November 2009. The program ends in December 2010. However, my EAD expires October 2010.
Is there anything I can do to keep my GC processing on track? Can I renew my EAD while I'm in Spain?
Thank you,
Sidd.

The US Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) has issued new guidance (http://www.uscis.gov/files/nativedocuments/health_care_occupations_20may09.pdf)on the standards for adjudicating H-1B petitions filed on behalf of beneficiaries seeking employment in a health-care specialty occupation.
The memo suggests that adjudicators should first consult the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics� Occupational Outlook Handbook (OOH) to determine whether the position qualifies as a H-1B "specialty occupation" as defined in the Immigration and Nationality Act.
The memo addresses licensing requirements for health-care workers in detail, and the effect of having a license - or not having a license - on approval of a case. If the foreign national has the required license, the adjudicator should not "look beyond the license." If the foreign national has a restricted license (e.g., license approved except for mandatory supervised practice), and the petition is otherwise approvable, an adjudicator should approve the petition for one year, or the duration of the restricted license, whichever is longer.
If the employee does not have the license because s/he needs certain immigration documents before getting a license, CIS can approved the petition for one year. The memo says that "The approval of any such H-1B petition shall not constitute approval by USCIS for the alien beneficiary to engage in any activity requiring possession of such State or local license. It is merely a means to facilitate the state or local licensing authority�s issuance of such a license to the alien, provided all other requirements are satisfied."

Yeah was a real eye opener, this one. Makes u wonder sometimes, whether we are really welcome in this country or not. More importantly, will we ever be REALLY accepted as part of the "American culture". These organizations are open about their "feelings" toward immigrants. There are a Whole lot more people who may not be so open about their thoughts, but still have them nonetheless.
But worry not, we are equally thick skinned. Green Card to Lekar hi rahenge :)

Dear All:
I am currently in my 7th year on H-1B (with I-140 approved) and my H-1B Visa expired a year ago and my current I-94 valid until next 2 years (same case for my dependants).
I am switching my employer now and my family is planning to goto India and when they go for visa stamping through my new employer - do you think they will get into the trouble because my visa (with old employer) is already expired?
And FYI - myself/my fmaily already had US Visas stamped for atleast 4-5times already in the past through various employers.
The primary applicant's H1-B status must be valid for the dependent to get H-4 VISA stamp. The primary's own VISA stamp is not an issue.

Just in case someone might find this useful --
I had appeared for my visa stamping (9th year extension). It went fine. I'd used these forums to collect all the needed info so thanks to everyone ! I was little nervous but had no choice because my company had sent me for a business trip. At the consulate, security was very good. They even had places to leave your belongings. I saw people come in with cellphones, keys etc and they were check them in the security. Once through the security initial check ups took place where they put the needed documents in a file.
- At this point the person checking my docs marked red on the section where I had marked that my sibling was permanent resident.
- went to the first window where the officer checked for PIMS and wrote "no PIMS" (again in red) on my ds156 form. He asked couple of questions about where I work and then the finger print formality.
- waited for a while and finally I was called for the interview. The VO asked about my job, degree and what my role was at the company. I work for very large fortune 500 company and our division in Germany is well known.
- She left couple of times to check my PIMS records and finally told me that your visa will be approved and sent in 3-5 business days. That's how they do it consulates in Germany. You are not allowed to come and collect the passports.
- But, then she again checked my degree (EE) and mentioned that they may have to do some additional processing and will get back to me.
- But, she kept the passport and other docs so I was confident that it is only for PIMS verification. After 3 days I got back my passport with stamping. I provided all the answers with confidence and very legibly.
We just have to do what we have to do and leave the rest to whatever happens. I'd prepared everything before my trip in case I've go to India and get stamped (I'm getting tired of these long and stressful procedures, I was the only one with some many docs whereas others walked in with few sheets, go figure !).
Anyway, everything went well! Please let me know if any of you have questions and good luck to all. Hope none of us have to get stuck in the PIMS mess. Also, the PIMS process seems to have been cleaned up. Because of large amount of complaints looks like they are clearing it faster and providing the decision back to consulates much faster.
Adios.

What do you mean by filing ?
Is there anything to file for AC21 ? I somehow thought it's implicit and you just have to let USCIS know that you have changed your job. That's all. That too is not a mandatory task but most lawyers suggest it to play safe. I think it's matter of sending the letter with details to USCIS.
You just be prepared to explain at the 485 interview or reply to RFE's or NOID's if sent by USCIS, which wont happen till your 485 date is current or your sponsoring employer withdraws 140.
Best way to handle this, do not send any detail AC21 to INS, but keep all the documents emeployment offer with job description , paystub and W2 till you get RFE at 485 stage ( If lucky you may not get at all)
Again you may change job again before 485 stage hit.

Hi
My husband does not have an H1 stamp in his passport even though he has been in status since he did not go to india,right now he has got 3 yr extension on the basis of an approved I-140 petition,we are going to india to get our visa stamped next month.
Can anyone advise me whether not having a previous H1 stamp in the passport will create any problems for us in getting stamped now.He was on an L1 visa before converting to H1,he has not gone to india since 2002.
kindly advise
There should not be any issues. Take all the required papers to the interview.
Good Luck!!
