Hello,
I am here on a H1B visa and my wife is on a H4 Visa. She has recently been admitted to a masters program and would start going to school soon.
1. We want to get a F1 visa for her, so that she can get paid for some work in the campus. Would it be possible to get the F1 visa in Canada. Does anyone have any recent experience on getting this done ?
2. Say we not apply for a visa but only apply for a change of status and do not even go to India or anywhere else before the completion of her program. After that she would go on an OPT. If we go to India then, would it not be a problem in getting a F-1 visa, as her education would already be complete. Does it mean that she should get her visa stamped before she completes her education.
Thanks,
Gaurav

I was told by consulate staff that the PIO card should be endorsed with the new passport # when you renew your foreign passport. I guess if you are traveling with both the old and new passport it should be ok, since they can verify right there. It is also a hassle endorsing the PIO card everytime you renew your passport. If you try to find out from the embassy/consulate ( that itself is a hassle), they will probably try to sell you for an endorsement. I do not know about the fees. I will be surprised if they didn't have one for endorsement.

Those of you planning to reach the 485/EAD "heaven". Please have a look at this
link suggesting you apply for EAD 6 months in advance.
http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.eb1d4c2a3e5b9ac89243c6a7543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=1847c9ee2f82b010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1RCR D&vgnextchannel=1847c9ee2f82b010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1 RCRD
Apply too early and you are screwed by an early approval that will render your EAD valid for just 6 months(my last 2 were approved within 2 weeks). Apply too late and risk unauthorised work and or having to get fired/stay off the job.
All this just weeks after they removed the ability to get an emergency 90 day EAD at the local field offices if they delayed more than 90 days.
The USCIS is getting very mean with those of us waiting in the legal queue in my view. A lot is going on behind the scenes, I hope we are not all made scapegoats of dumb policy in the end.

this one is very cool
Thanks a lot Dom, it took some time for me to find transparent layered maps of water to work with. Initially this was drawn with the orange falling down, but an even splash wasn't what i had in mind. So I had random splash, mostly one directional and then spinned the image to have gravity work as well-once again thanks

they are decreasing from 140,000 to 90,0000....
note that even though this bill is just not good enough for relief that fact is that the number of GC available to a backlogged country like india goes up about 150% under the new 190,000...this does not include the 14,000 additional numbers from the MBS.
Why?
only for backlog, so no EB1 (28.6%) and no EB2 except india and china. also country quota increased to 10%
so available numbers eg india increase from 5,600 to 9,000 (+14,000 MBS)
i put up a detailed calculation for this earlier on somewhere
search for it if you are really interested.

I am on H-1 B , and planning to apply for Labor certification - working for an Automobile manufacturing Company in Engineering department,my qualifications are Bachelor in Mechanical Engineering-SOC CODE (17-2141), Masters in Industrial Engineering SOC CODE(17-2112).
Just want to ask can i use Commercial & Industrial designer SOC CODE(27-1021), as base cause for using this code is my current job responsibilities matches with it and also meeting Salary requirements, other two codes giving high salaries comparing this code - (flc data center),
By law do i have to use the same code in which my bachelor or master degree is OR it depends on my current job responsibility
. help will be appreciated
As far as I understand, your degree is not the only criteria to decide the SOC code for labor certification. SOC code depends on the combination of your education qualification and your experience in the relevant field. Every job has a minimum qualification. But the minimum education qualification doesn't describe the SOC code. If you meet the minimum education qualification, you could apply for that job, but then one has to meet the required experience required for the job. I guess the combination of experience in the relevant field and the minimum education qualification together weigh in to decide the SOC code. If your employer and your lawyer feel comfortable with Commercial & Industrial designer SOC CODE(27-1021), then it is Commercial & Industrial designer SOC CODE(27-1021). ;)
All the Best!

Hello everyone,
I have a question which I hope someone can help answer.I have applied in EB2 category and am from India.My PD is July 2005. I have used AC21 recently and changed my employer(i.e I am no longer with my sponsoring employer) I have not notified USCIS of the same.
I plan to travel to India during September 2008 and use AP to reenter back into the US. Can someone help answer the below doubts.
1) Since at the port of entry the Immigration Officer will ask whether I am still with the same employer or not- I will have to say I have moved to another company- What happens then?
2)Does using the AP and subsequent answer of "Yes- I have changed my company" trigger a RFE during the GC allocation process since now I have to prove to USCIS that my job is "same or similar" and my pay is >= the pay mentioned in my LC.
3) Has anyone successfully used AP after using AC21 and not had an RFE issued during GC allotment?
Thanks in advance

From Business Week: A report released on Tuesday makes the case that increased immigration is not a cause of increased unemployment in the U.S. The study, �The Unemployment Disconnect: Untying the Knot,� was issued by the Immigration Policy Center, the research arm of the American Immigration Law Foundation, an association of immigration lawyers that generally supports pro-immigration policies. The study sets out with the assertion that if immigrants are taking jobs away from native-born workers, �one would expect to find high unemployment rates in those parts of the country with large numbers of immigrants.� Examining state, county, and metropolitan area...

Hi people here,
I need your help.
My company, a consulting firm, received an intent to deny notice for my labor application. (They received it in 1st week of may and a** telling me now. Needs to be replied by Jun 1st)
The lawyer and HR tell me that I have to get letters from my managers at my different clients explaining why they needed BS + 5 years of experience for the position and why they need certain set of skills.
If anybody has experience in dealing with such notice, please give me your inputs. How do you justify a need of 5 years experience in tangible and intangible terms?
TIA.

austingc,
Thank you for the advise.
My wife has already gone to the consulate and got her stamping. So she is out of the loop, its only me who needs the stamp.
To put my question in a different way:
Will the consulate cancel/stops/statusquo my wifes H4 visa as the H1B is in "Admin Processing"?
Thanks again.

Hi, I have been searching for appointments in Canada for a while now, and have had no luck at all. I check the nvars website everyday, but it always says no appointments available. I read some posts here about how hard it is to find appointments, and started checking in the afternoons during work like they mentioned. I search in montreal, toronto, and vancouver but I don't find anything. Don't even need one for next week - anytime is ok.
Also, I looked at some services like XVARS and NvarsAppointment - does any one have any experience using these services?
Please advise!

Dont flll 1040 by yourself if you are not a tax expert.
Line 34 in 1040 is tuition and fee deduction and you have to file form 8917.
get Some software such as Turbotax or Taxcut
Are you serious? I must be a super expert on taxes because I have always done it on paper using a calculator for the last 14 years and counting. Just spend an hour reading the instructions and you're done. Have a question, call the IRS. Unlike other government agencies (cough.. USCIS cough..) the agents at the other end of the line are actually helpful and responsive.

Hi,
I am planning to apply my Green card. However I am a bit confused which category will I fall to ? EB2 or EB3 ?
As per my job requirement details, it is as below:
i ) Bachelor degree in technology related field.
In the detailed experience seeked, it says as below:
i) Five years of experience with installing, maintaining servers.
ii) Three years of practical experience in routing and network security.
I have more than 5 years of working experience (which they seeked) before I started this job.
Under which category will it fall under, EB2 or EB3 ?
Thank you

Dear Gurus
My friend is in pathetic situation. He is in US for last 5 years and fallen out of status almost 2 years. Using 245I, Finally he got his i140, EAD, AP got aproved i485 still pending with current PD.
Unfortunately his father fallen sick, and possibly he may not see him if he miss him now.
My question here is, can he travel on his AP, What are the risk involved. In case of his i485 get approved while he is in
India can I take it with me so he can come back with his Green card.
Dear friends you guys have been helping all, pls help my friend to see his father possibly last time.

We will sit idle and they will sit idle till the PD moves. Once the PD moves, they MIGHT get some 485 applications to process. Since the PD is retrogressed four to five years last year, most of the people with PD till the end of 2003 have already filed 485. The movement of PD until 2003 end will add some 485 to USCIS.
The real fun to watch is when the PD moves beyond Jan'04. The service center will be flooded with 485 applicaitons and the flood will keep on increasing as the dates move. Lots of permutations and combinations are invloved in this scenario.

I have both EB3 and EB2 labor approved and EB2 I-140 approved for the same job requirement in the same company. Here're some details:
labor PD : 03/2005 (EB3)
labor PD : 12/2006 (EB2),
I-140 approved (EB2)
I-485 Applied : 07/2007 with approved EB2 I-140
Is it possible to use my EB3�s PD for my EB2 application? If so, what�s the procedure.
Thanks a lot!
