If you get one consolidated paycheck and W-2, you're fine. Otherwise, you will have a tough time explaining multiple paychecks and W-2s to the immigration officer when you go for visa stamping or when entering the country.

it is nice to see people with older priority dates are getting approved. At least USCIS is working in proper order rather than in wild pattern
If USCIS would have been working in proper order, I should have got approval long ago as my PD had been current for more than a year. Anyway this is over can't complain. Good luck for all those waiting.

Did any one of you, who refinanced, owe more than the home's worth? For example, house is worth 200K but the current mortgage balance is $230K or something. I heard that the new Obama initiative will help these people refinance with FHA. Anyone knows if that is true?

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?

Analysis of Visa prediction if Bill passes in senate in current form
90,000 visas to clear backlog, 10% county limit.
9000 visas per country limit, India get 9000 visa (EB-1, will get additional 10000 visas ).
Can some one interpret the law whether unused visa will be spilled to oversubscribed countries?
Current law EB-2 and EB-3 only 40,000 visas for EB-2 and EB-3 out of 7% goes to each country 2800 visas for each country.

Thanks for your prompt response.
- still I feel that only because I received just now after 8 years this A#, seems to me that only at this time I'm registered as an immigrant?
That is what alien number means in English ? Sorry.
You are still not an immigrant. You are currently in Adjustee status. You will become an immigrant when your 485 is approved. Goodluck.

Thanks Nathan for quick response.
But what do i need to do? Do i have to change my place of birth in my indian passport? Can i have "Nepal" as place of birth in my indian passport? Do i still remain indian citizen or would it be considered a fraud? I think, my parents put india as birth place, so i dont face any difficulty in india. what does Indian constitution say about citizenzip?
Are there more people like me here? who were born outside of india, but are Indian citizens?
Thank you for help

Hello All
I have a question concerning my EAD.Company A applied for my H-1B After an year I have trfd my H-1 to company B and I have been working with company B for the past 2yrs 10 months.My H-1 b is due to expire in feb 2009.Company B Applied for my green card also. I-140 approved in November 2007.I got EAD in oct 2007 and has a valid EAD up to aug 2010.technically I am on EAD since I entered the country on advance parole.Now my company is going to renew my H-1 B .In light of the bill that has been passed which doesnot allow forfresh H-1 B as well as H-1 B renewals,what happens to my EAD if my H-1 renewal petetion gets denied?Does denial of non immigrant petetion leads to denial of immigrant visa (i.e pending adjustment of status).What happens to my EAD.I am worried a lot.Pls advice?Should I request my company to stop the renewal process so that I can stay on EAD only.

Yes, just as InTheMoment has said H1 option does exist, but chances are more with EAD.
It�s not like we switching jobs. Good univ, good program and good place go a long way in there career. To spend 3-5 years in a residency and another 2 years in a fellowship program, I think one has to be serious about what they choose.
Note like we got a rank and have to take-up what ever is offered.
EAD for H4 would have been the best things to happen, at least in light providing the same for L1.

From all the updates and information shared so far, it seems pretty clear that if the DREAM Act fails, it will make it extremely difficult, politically, for any EB or non-EB related immigration legislation (piecemeal or otherwise) to be introduced in Congress over the coming two years. So irrespective of whether visa recapture is a part of this bill or not (and we know that it is NOT), what happens to DREAM is very important from an overall strategy point of view.
I am just interpreting what is out there.
Brothers, i just want to know why we are happy with this DREAM thing or i am missing something. why do we care about this?
Please tell me if it has something for us.
Thanks
MC

Copy of 485 receipt
Copy Front and back of current EAD
Photos with A# and name in the back (With Pencil/Felt Pen)
Check for 340 Payable to US Department of Homeland Security" (with A#/Name in the memo section) -- Separate checks
Thanks for encouragement,
It's always scary the first time. : )
Re. Check caching - just FYI, now-a-days, they copy the check, convert it to EFT and destroy the original so getting case number from copy may not work.
Also do I write A# on back of photos or something else? Any idea if there are restrictions for using pen or pencil or such?
thanks again,

This is the website to check labor status at the BEC.
http://pds.pbls.doleta.gov/
My case was filed in Nov 2001. In Oct 2006, the DOL stated that they lost my case (I did not receive a 45 day letter). So my lawyer reconstructed my labor and filed it again as per DOL's instruction. I received a 45 day letter in Apr 2007 which showed my case no. Since then I have been checking the case status online.

Hi Nair/Perm,
I am not a returning US resident.
One of the companies sponsored my H1B and I am trying to get the visa stamped in India.
I got the wage report from the company but not the "Unemployment" wage report, so I am confused.
Any help about the document would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot for all your help.
Have a nice time!
Thanks & Regards,
Chak

I know that it is possible to apply for H1-B visa and enter after using EAD. But, I am little dubious about using old visa after using EAD, but it should not make much of a difference I think.
In any case, you should be prepared to field questions at the POE for your actions otherwise he may ask you to use AP instead.
By the way, this is the only way one can re-instate their H1-B status after using EAD.
Coming back on H-1B after using EAD
=========================
Is it possible ? if yes then how ?
Is there any risk in this ?
Thanks for all who reads and reply..
