My EB2- I140 (INDIA) approved on March 09, 2007. We also have received our EAD last year after filing I-485 in July 2007.
I was checking online status and for my I-140, last updated date shows January 06, 2008. (My EB2 PD is OCT 2006). Can any one explain why the I-140 showing update date of 01/06/2008. The online status says following text :
Application Type: I140, IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR ALIEN WORKER
Current Status: Case approved; approval notice e-mailed.
On March 9, 2007, this I140 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR ALIEN WORKER was approved and we sent you an e-mail notice. Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service.
I am little bit confuse.
I appriciate your help.
Thank you.

Thanks for the information.
Can we file I-130 and I-485 concurrently in this category now or I need to wait until my priority date is current to file I-485 in this category?
Appreciate your thoughts in this.

Hello ,
I entered USA in Dec. 2007 on H4 Visa valid till April 2010. I got my H1B approved in October 2008. I worked for few months, and due to bad economy I do not have any project since last 5 months and also no paystubs. I would like to change back to H4 status. But I understand that filing for change of status from within US might require latest paystubs. So I am planning to go to my Home country this month ( Nov 2009 ) and return in Jan 2010.
My questions are:
1) The H4 visa stamp on my passport is valid till Apr 2010. So can I simply enter USA with the same stamp and valid H1b petition from my spouse to get the new valid I-94 in H4 status?
2) Will there be any issue at Port of Entry ? Has anyone done this before ?
3) If this can be done then once I get valid I-94 with H4 status, Do I need to file any other form in addition like I-539 to be in proper status ?
Thanks in advance !

My H1 Extension approved from Sept'2010 - Dec 2012. LCA shows same dates and the salary shown is $5500 PM ($66000 P.A)
However recently, i noticed that i am receiving $5373(instead of $5500) per month since Sept'2010 till date.
I informed to my employer and he is willing to increase the pay from March.
Is it possible to correct it from March payroll.
Please advise.
Regards,
Sunshine
The employer should correct it from March and pay the 6 months difference as bonus. At end of year your salary should be at least equal to LCA.

FATCA establishes a MINIMUM penalty of $10,000 for failure to report foreign ASSETS over $50,000 on your tax return. FATCA filing is required in addition to FBAR filing. Who ever filed FBAR, please be aware of this new law from next year onwards , since the penalty is so high.

Hello,
My wife and I both work for the same company and my PD date is 1 year behind my wifes. But she was born in Germany though she is currently an Indian citizen. Now that the ROW category has moved passed her PD's date (Nov 6th 2002), we plan to file under the ROW category using the Cross Chargability rules. Does anybody have any experience filing under this rule? We have her birth certificate (translated into English from German etc) and our lawyers will send us the list of documents i expect. So basically i am trying to find out what to expect when filing under this category. Are there any caveats, good to knows etc?
PS- I am also an Indian citizen but i will obviously piggy back on her application since my PD is not current.
I know for sure, that you can go ahead and file as your wife's country of birth is Germany. About other things,, contact a good attorney. Best wishes and congratulations

... and ideally it should be copy of your approved labor.
I applied my labor as Software Engineer and BEC approved it with a code of Mechanical Engineer. I got it changed, but took me a year though. They kept my change request until the end when they were ready to shutdown BEC.
I probably go ahead and use what in the approved labor certificate. by the way how do I find exact job-code that I used in the I-140.
thanks.

Hi,
My lawyer says i can join company B as soon as USCIS has received my application for H1B transfer(by way of fedex tracking)? is this true or do we have to wait for receipt number/case number?
I need to know this because my company will not file I-485 until i join them but under the current backlog CSC is having a huge backlog with receipting H1B transfer cases.
Please help

In the past week or so we have been receiving many requests for evidence on all H1b cases filed on April 1, 2009. The RFEs received by us and practitioners across the country so far appear to only request that the single page of the I-129 Data Collection sheet be sent with the TARP question answered.
Due to the passage of EAWA, USCIS is required to collect TARP (and Section 13 funding) information on each H-1B petitioner. However, by the time the new form became available, we had already completed our packages for the H-1B cap filing period for April 1, 2009. Therefore, USCIS confirmed that the new I-129 form was not mandatory and that only the one page (of the I-129 Data collection sheet requesting the TARP information) was urged to be included.
At the AILA Spring Conference in Washington, D.C., Barbara Velarde, Chief, USCIS Service Center Operations, mentioned that if the TARP information was not included in the filing, the petitions would not be rejected. However, USCIS would need to send an RFE for the TARP information. Unfortunately, this was not clearly explained in the USCIS fact sheet on TARP issued on March 20, 2009. Nevertheless, USCIS is required under the EAWA statute to obtain this information and the easiest way for USCIS to comply is to send an RFE. This is a very annoying and time consuming process for all us dealing with H1B filings, and even more confusing for the clients. We hope that USCIS explain better such crucial changes in future matters.

Hi Guys,
A quick one. I have a HIb visa which is expiring on 9th of next month . I have never worked for that employer as things did'nt work out. I am currently in Australia and want to work as a contractor in US. I have already figured out who is going to transfer/sponsor my new H1.
I am pretty sure that my employer would have cancelled my h1 which was allotted to me in 2007 quota.
I have a tourist visa as well and i intend to goto US on that Visa and work out on the transfer of my H1 once i land there.
Can i really do the above or am i getting too optimistic.
Please reply soon as i have to make some really quick decisions.
Regards
N
your old H1 would not be of any use/issue for you. Apply for a new one with the new employer and it would be an easy process. Transfering basically means applying for a new one. The employer has to go through all the processes (advert, recruitment, LC etc). I have no idea about converting from B1 to H1.

Hello guys,
If the employer is not willing to share your I-140 approval status with you, is there a way to find out this information from other sources?
I currently have my 485 & AP numbers but do not have I-140 number to track on the USCIS website.
Thanks for help in advance.

My confusion is, as soon as I enter on AP I am on EAD and I don't have approved EAD. Does this mean I can not work untill I get EAD approved? I don't have Visa Stamped and I am not planning for Visa Stamping.

Gurus,
I am considering switching my employer.
Currently I have I-140 and labor for GC approved in 2006.
Filed I-485 in July 2007.
My current H-1B expires on December 2009. (9 years on H-1B.... ya that long)
Based on my AC-21 portability after 180 days of I-140 approval, if I move to a new employer and file H-1B transfer, will I get default approval of only upto December 2009, or can I get 3-year extension based on my I-140 approval?
Appreciate your answers in advance.
Thanks,
Optimizer
You can get 3 years extension based on your approved I140. Please consult a lawyer before jumping into conclusions though.
