Very good question. Depends on how one defines "Active":D
Some people can be awake while sleeping and some people can be sleeping while they are awake.
The question is are you awake or asleep? and what are you doing other than posting on IV for IV? :D

I don't know. It is just puzzling that some people got both while others only got one. What is the basis for approving AP?
Is there any basis needed for approving AP? Is it EAD ? If so my application is in deeps***. onceagain, is there anybody here with this kind of experience. Also since I already took infopass once, is there any use taking it again for my ead ?

I am in the process of changing job. The new employer is saying that I can start working with them from the very next day, after they file H1B transfer application. ie I don't have to wait for the receipt. Is this true? They are asking me to give 2 weeks notice immediately so that by the time they file H1B, 2 weeks will get over, and I can start there immediately.
Please reply its kind of urgent for me.
Thanks.
yes you can start working when the application is filed. If you have time then i'd prefer you wait for the reciept notice confirming your application has reached and then switch jobs.

When you apply for H1 transfer..they transfer the current H1.
If you have more than 6 months on ur H1 you cannot apply for extension..
when you file for transfer.
So better option would be:
a.) Transfer H1...and then file for extension.
b.) Or file for extension and then change jobs...
if you havent filed for 485.. then you have to restart the GC..and recapture your PD.... i used the option B.
hope this helps

I am in a similar situation. What did your friend end up doing? I would appreciate any feedback on this.
My 140 is approved, 6th year expires in March 09, 485 has not been filed due to retrogression and there is a potential for a layoff. Can I transfer 140 to a new employer and file 3 yr extension at the same time?

Hi All,
Company A:
I am on my 7th year of H-1B visa (6th year expired on Apr30th 2008).
Labor approved Dec, 2006.
I-140 applied in June 2007. (Got RFE regarding my Educational Transcripts
which we responded in time and USCIS received on Dec 5, 2007)
I-485 applied in Sep 2007
Got EID and Advance parole approved.
I-140 Denied on Apr 3 2008.
Applied for MTR (I-120 B). Now it is at Texas Service center (since May1, 2008).
Company B:
Now this company applied for my Labor (Perm) on Apr 21, 2008.
Got Approved on June 24, 2008.
1. Do I Eligible for Premium Processing of I-140?
2. If iam not eligible for Premium Processing, still do I eligible for 8th year extension based on my Labor applied on Apr21, 2008 (365 days before my 7th year H1B expiry)? Even when company A withdraws my MTR.
Please advice.
Thanks

Hi, this is my situation:
- I have L2 Visa, because my husband has L1B Visa. This year, the visa expires and we have 3 new options: extension for L1 and L2 Visa, H1 and H4Visa or Green Card.
- In the other hand, I have my own business. I have and EAD (work permit) and SSN.
Questions:
1. Which of the 3 options do you recommend us to get? Why?
2. I understand that under H4, I am not able to get a work permit. Do I need a work permit to continue doing business by myself? Or it is required even to run my business?
Thanks

Both the company C and company A was owned by one person. So even i was working with the company C, my payroll was under Company A. Right after I received my labor certificate from Company A, my lawyer suggested my transfer my H1b from Company C to company A. Then i received my h1b approval for company A in Jan 2007 to October 2008.
.........
EB3 (ROW)..PD May 2006
If Company A and C are related business entities, why H1-B transfer was needed from C to A.
>> So even i was working with the company C, my payroll was under Company A.
When you were getting paycheck from A, did you raise this issue?
Did you put this information in Employment History for I-485? What was your last entry into USA?

My labor application for GC (pre-PERM) was lost in the Dallas BEC and DOL was never able to find it. However, in my case we had gotten a receipt and also had proof of mailing etc. We had to resubmit the labor application and DOL immediately approved it within a week. However, because of the delay caused I missed the window for filing I-485. I had to wait for more than a year, till my PD became current to apply for I-485.
Thanks,
Prasad
Thanks Prasad.
We are sending everything back certified mail tomorrow AM. Our big problem is that announcement regarding April's retrogression. We are REALLY hoping USCIS honors our original filing date of Nov. 08. Our PD was current right up until this month.
fingers crossed!

A consulting company that i had approached in early 2007 had filed my
H1B on April 1st '07 for which i only have a receipt # as yet. This H1 is obviosuly under the CAP. USCIS decision reg. H1 approval is still pending.
I was eligible to file for AOS / EAD thru my husbands GC petition and now do not want to take any job on the H1B with the consulting company. I have a offer from another company....i can join then when i get my EAD. They are willing to wait till i get my EAD.
Some concerns i need help with -
1)How does the contracting company withdraw or VOID my H1. ?
2) Do we have to wait for 797 approval to void it.? Or can they VOID it using only the RECEIPT # ?
3) If H1B is approved in the next few weeks then does the petitioner have to void it before the start of fiscal year - October 1st 2007.?
5) Does a attorney need to be involved to withdraw this case ? What is the exact process of nullifying this H1B.? Are there any specific forms to be filled out.???
6) What kind of documentation would i need from the petitioner who is withdrawing my H1B...Like what evidence do i need to get from petitioner that he / she has actually withdrawn this.??
Also are there any DOL or USCIS rules which state that - the employer has to provide me with copies of the LCA, I-129 petition, Letter that he writes for voiding the H1B. I should be entitled to recieve copies from the employer right..?? allthough i will not work for them..! Can somebody direct me to a link on DOL or USCIS which tells me that the employer should give me all these copies.
Thank you!

Sorry, I did not phrase it properly. Apologize.
The previous post was so frustrated because EB3 is unavailable. So I was trying to say, in his point of view, it would have been a different case if the PD is somewhere around 2005/2006/current, may be he would have been ok with the Bachelor's degree.
What I was trying to emphasize is - Many a times (not always) employers don't create job position with proper requirement and that causes employee to go in EB3.
I was hired for a position that required Masters and I fortunately was in EB2, but a colleague of mine, who is doing the similar work, was put in EB3 because his manager created the position with a requirement of Bachelors. He had a Master's degree. Here employee suffered because of his manager's ignorance however USCIS is messing up on top of that. EB3 is an umbrella category for many kind of workers...including those who don't even require a Bachelor's. Probably those people should be in a new category EB4 ...at least this will help EB3 with Bachelor's degree move forward.
Another thing is - Some people (not in this particular thread) don't care much about EB3 people and some are even thinking of filing lawsuit against interfile (so that people can't switch from EB3 to EB2). IMHO, these people need to change their opinion. If we fight among ourselves instead of against bad laws, we will be doomed. United we stand, divided we fall !!
The bottom line is - we are aware of the problems; we just need to support IV to fight against these problems.

it would be difficult to show how a french degree is useful in your current job. Many companies get h1-b approved by showing a "business necessity"..ie, they need travel agents who speak a certain Indian language etc. Doing an MBA definitely will help, but not with the current job description. They are going to ask why the job requires an MBA?Ofcourse if you got a job teaching French, h1-b visa will be granted.
