Hi,
I'm trying to schedule my visa stamping date in aug /sept time frame in India. In delhi consulate when I click on Indian resident I see the available dates but when I click on Indian citizen residing in US, I see no availability. I'm not sure which option should I choose. I'm a student working on OPT in US. My OPT will expire on Aug 4th and so I will come to India. I'm not sure which of the two options I have to choose while scheduling an interview :
Resident of India/Bhutan
OR
Indian Citizen residing in United States.
I would really appreciate any help in this matter.
Thanks,
Ashish

Hi
I am on H-1 and recently filed for my 485. After I receive an EAD in 6 or so months, am I eligible to go to school full-time while waiting for processing on my 485 application?
Careful! B4 GC is issued, you will have to show proof that you are still with the sponsoring company or working in a similar job /similar pay with another company.
1) b4 you leave the job make sure your i-485 has been pending for over 180 days
AND
2) Your i-140 is APPROVED

Is this August 16 receipt date or notice date? I dont remember when my lawyer sent my 140 to USCIS?

It must be Notice Date, Reciept Date doesn't show on online.

I am currently working for Company-A, holding a H1B till 30/09/2012 (approx 1 yr/5 months time left), with the approved I140 and labor (Priority date EB2 Oct 2008).
Now I am thinking to move to other company (Company-B) and the new company is ready to transfer my H1B and start green card processing after 3 months.I had following questions
Q1>Can I move from my present employer to new employer?
If yes will I get New H1B valid till 30/09/2012 or for three more years based on existing approved I140.
Q2>My old employer should not revoke my I140 till my new Labor and I140 get approved with the new employer? (Most likely my old employer (Company �A) is going to revoke the I140 once I leave the company). So will that be any problem for me?
Specifically problem in following scenarios,
a. Porting my priority date for future GC application (Company-B) with revoked old 140(From Company-A).
b. If i am going to get extension only till 30/09/2012 and
if my new GC doesn�t clear new 140 stage by then ( which is highly possible looking at current market conditions and the timeframe when my labor is going to get applied (Easily 8-9 months from now)) Can i get 3 years extension at that stage using revoked 140 from company-A?
I feel very jittery about whether to make this move or not. Looking my existing priority date I assume it is easily going to take another 2/3 years to get green card in existing job.
Please reply this post as it will help me alot

We recently assisted a client from Johannesburg, South Africa, regarding an H-1B specialty occupation visa. He was approved for an H-1B visa, but in order for our client to enter the United States, he must obtain an H-1B visa in his passport. Because the chances of visa issuance vary greatly depending on documentation and individual circumstances, we suggested that he go to the interview at the U.S. consulate very well prepared. We told him to take a certified copy of his entire H-1B package that was filed with the Immigration Service, along with his Form I-797 Approval Notice. We also suggested that he take original birth certificates, marriage certificate, and proof of financial support. He attended the interview this morning and his experience at the U.S. consulate in Johannesburg, South Africa was documented as follows.
“My wife, myself and our son had our interview at the U.S. Consulate here in Johannesburg this morning, at 9:00am. We duly arrived at 8:30am, had our relevant DS documents checked at the door, took a number, and waited for the “call.” At promptly 9:00am we were called to a booth, where our fingerprints were taken, the DS forms checked with the original I-797 form, and then told to go and sit down again. 10 minutes later, we went back to the booth, had our fingerprints taken again, and that was it. All visas approved, and to pay DHL the delivery costs. No questions asked, no documents asked for, no requirement of proof of copies of documents, nothing. All in all a painless and easy task.”

Guys,
Thank you for your reply.
But I do not want to loose my H1B status, mean not to use EAD.It has been almost 1.5 year since I140 approved but I never work for the company who filed greencard for me. Does it matter? What is final solution to get greencard since company is closing.
Thank you for your reply.

I am on a L1 visa which has expired April 2006. I have got my petition extended till 2008. Can I transfer my L1 from Employer A to another Employer B. Can employer B transfer my current L1 petition to his company?
Please reply ASAP.
L-1 petition is non-transferable and tied to employer A. However, employer B can file H-1 for you.

Yesterday there was a post made which I commented.
Today i see this post on ilw.com
Greg Siskind on Immigration Law and Policy: MALDEF HEAD: DON'T BLOCK PIECEMEAL IMMIGRATION REFORM IF COMPREHENSIVE FAILS (http://blogs.ilw.com/gregsiskind/2009/09/maldef-head-dont-block-piecemeal-immigration-reform-if-comprehensive-fails.html)
On the whole Greg Siskind is a lawyer who is knowledgeable about political dynamics.
I always follow his articles.
I always felt that CIR was a impossible strategy. It bundles all the immigration bill in one single bill. The idea is that it would make the illegal legalization process more easier than in a piecemeal strategy where the easily passable ones like SKIL bill etc might pass leaving behind the more politically toxic rest.
Also what it does that it makes the CIR an isolated elephant which is hunted down by
a pack of wolves , in other words uniting the antis into one single consolidated powerful force.
Eventually the MALDEF head is realizing the folly of the logic and I feel in a Year or two CIR strategy will be abandoned for a piecemeal strategy.

I have one question about signing the affidavit of support (864) for immigration of a family member.
(i.e. For petition for Immediate Relative- daughter files for mother)
If daughter signs an affidavit of support for mother (i.e. form 864) for immigrant visa (Immediate relative) then in that case for daughter is it going to create any problem in getting study loans/home loan in future?
Just curious, how are they related.
I'm not seeing any connection between these items.
Affidavit is for USCIS to show the ability that she can take the financial burden, study loan is for university to decide borrower can able to pay or not and mortgage loan is also the same, in both the cases you have to pay back and in first case it is not.
