There should be no problem. I have gone there before and going again now next week for H1 stamping and plan to take my personal car. I have Canadian PR though, but I don't think it should matter.

I am in similar situation. SSN office refuses to give status on phone. So I have to go in person with 2-3 hour wait. Then the lady sends me back saying - "it can take up to 12 weeks".
Any ideas?

Hi,
My wife is going to apply for both H4 and H1 visa. Since marriage is in March end, she will come to US on H4 visa. Her H1 visa will be applied as if she were in India. Now her I94 will say H4. Once she gets her H1B, she will have to go out of country to get new I94.
We can go to Mexico to get it stamped and hence get new I94. If for some reason, H1B is rejected, can she still enter the US on H4 visa?

I got myself in somewhat of a mess here and wondering if there is any solution?
I filed for my I-485 on June 28th and it reached UCSIS on 2nd July. I wasn't able to do the same for my wife as she was in India at that time.
She is back now and I want to file her I-485 but my lawyer tells me I can not do that because it either needs to be filed concurrently with mine or they need to have a receipt for my I-485 which doesn't seem to be coming in the next few weeks.
Is there anything else I can do? Anyone has similar experiences? Will a copy of my I-485 filing do?
Thanks.

I asked exactly the same question a few days ago and ppl replied that h1B is totally different case. H1B does not get affected irrespective of whethe it came thorugh due to 140 already approved or LC approved or a < 6 years limit.

What is the best possible solution to get around different place birth on Passport and BC. Any has affidavit format for such issue please share it.
According to chat transcript from a lawyer's site some one had the same question. The answer is "USCIS does not care much about secondary document like passport and what's in the primary document like Birth certificate is important and matters". In other words they may not be comparing the passport and birth certificate for place of birth. Just my 2cents as I'm not a lawyer.
Hope this helps.

The preadjucation process is just like bringing a pregnant woman into labor but not allowing her to give birth till the babies number comes . The woman then needs to be painful labor for 28 years ( some member said that’s how long it will take ) , so the baby is grown and healthy ( preadjucated according to USCIS ) , but the doctors from the Department of state ( DOS ) are not allowing the baby to come out into the world .
USCIC is off late preadjucating the petitions and keeping them ready and many members seem to thrive on just seeing and discussing the LUD dates since by now most of us know somewhere in the subconsious that the GC is a nothing but a bone tied to our tail which we might never be able to bite .
Some members including me who unfortunately lack the analytical skills of some looked into a very interesting thread some time back which said EB2 will be current within a year . It spoke about 'spillovers' and we all were very happy that finally our baby will see the light of the day . Just like hope never dies I even though the dates have moved back to a date when most of us were in graduate college and the Clinton administration just left , some members are still now hopeful of a "spillover".
I for one have done what it takes for 4 long years in all ways possible to wake these guys up and now I am honestly least bothered about my GC and I feel the earlier members get to this level of mindset it will give them a lot of mental peace . I am just waiting for my visa to expire or my wall street employer to lay me off( whichever happens earlier ) in which case I also get a free ticket home .
The expectation that "next month may be the month" will surely kill you long before your GC actually gets cleared ( after 28 years ) .

Two little-known types of immigrant visas are the T and the U visas. The T visa is for people innocently involved in human trafficking, and the U visa is for victims of crime. The U visa's basic purpose is to make it easier for police to prosecute those who commit violence.
Both types of visas were discussed in a recent Dallas Morning News (http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/latestnews/stories/052010dnmetuvisa.8c47617.html) article. Here are excerpts from the article, beginning with a discussion of the U visa:
The visas began flowing only 18 months ago and the majority have gone to domestic violence victims, say officials from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
Under the Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act, up to 10,000 such visas are authorized annually. Illegal immigrants may receive such visas if they've suffered "substantial" physical or mental abuse from criminal activity and, among other things, a law enforcement agency certifies they have information on criminal activity. The visa can lead to permanent legal residency status.
The issuing of U visas comes at a tense time in the national immigration debate, amid a polarizing crackdown and potentially broader policing powers against immigrants in Arizona. And it illuminates a prickly point of justice: Should the federal government give illegal immigrants special treatment for a societal good such as fighting violent crime?
The Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act created both the U visa and the T visa. They're near the end of a complex network of visas, A through V.
T visas, for those involved in human trafficking, began flowing in 2002, but the flow of U visas was delayed as regulations on issuance were hammered out. In the last three full fiscal years, only about 250 to 300 T visas have been approved of the maximum annual allotment of 5,000.
In the last fiscal year, ending in September 2009, the federal government authorized 5,825 U visas. In the first five months of this fiscal year, nearly 5,000 such visas were given. There are about 6,600 visa applications pending, and the 10,000 allotment is expected to be reached as early as next month, said Maria Elena Garcia Upson, a spokeswoman for the immigration agency.

I was married in India as per Muslim law and currently both of us hold US citizenship. At the time of marriage we both were indian citizens. What kind of rights do my wife has on my property in India on our divorce (I bought these properties after my marriage and it is all registered under my name) ? In US, both husband and wife would share any property that we aquired after the marriage. Does the same true in India?
Thanks for your help. I pray no one should go thru these type of issues in thier life.
Well , the law states that the property accumulated after marriage has to be divided. Did you buy that property in India with money you accumulated in the US? Did you transfer that money from US to India? Was that money accumulated after marriage? If yes, then it will be divided as well. Of course it's best to check with lawyer first.

The only problem is that she started working from Jan 2008. From Oct 2007 to Dec 2007 she was not working. So I donot have her W2 and neither the paystubs. I do have the joint tax return that I filed in 2007, but that does not have her income. Is it possible to say that she was on leave during this period for personnel reason?

Hi,
I have a master's degree from a top US university but my current employer applied my GC in the EB3 category. I am planning to move to a different company which is willing to apply in the EB2 category. I have an approved 1-140 with the current employer and my I-485 was sent in July/August. Here are the steps I think I should take after moving to the new company:
1) After I move to the new company, I can send AC-21 and continue my GC in the Eb3 category.
2) File a new LC. Send new I-140 in EB2 asking them to use the old PD from the approved EB3 category.
My question is
1) Will I run into any issues for my EB3 because the new I-140 is in EB2? I dont want to jeopardise my EB3 application.
2) Should I not send AC21 if I am planning to switch to EB2 category. My current employer does not revoke I140 even after I move to the new company (anyway, I am doing this after 180 days of I-485).
Any input is appreciated.

My Question:-
My answers.
Disclaimer:This is to just give an indication and you should consult an attorney for exact response.
1) Can the new company can file my H1b Extension based upon my previous company I 140 and receipt notice (Because due to delays my H1b is not approved for previous employer)?
Yes
2) What if, The new company don't file AC 21?
AC21 is better for scenario #3 though its not mandatory. You can give the EVL if asked during RFE
3) What if the previous employer cancel my I 140.
Technically you should be OK since 6 months have passed since 485 filing and the new job should be similar to the labor
Let me know what other problem can I face if I transfer my H1b to new employer.:confused:[/QUOTE]
Should be good as long as the new company is good and willing to continue the GC process.

In September 2001, I came here on visitor visa with my mother and resided here till today (I was 15). I went through 4 yrs of high school, got my GED followed by an associate degree from community college and now I'm an undergrad student pursuing my bachelor degree; will graduate in a year. Meanwhile, my mother became a U.S. citizen through marriage when I was a sophomore in college, simultaneously my I-130 was approved and now waiting for the visa availability; the priority date: Dec 08, 2006, F1.
Problem is that I turned 21 on October 13, 2006 right passed the time criterion for the Child Status Protection Act which technically makes me "aged-out" by about 2 months (filing date being DEC06), so I think that I am not be qualified as an immediate relative.
Currently, the visa availability date is at 15FEB06 which is getting close to DEC06.
Few months ago, I received a letter from NVC requesting DS-3032 and I-864 forms which I've filled out and sent to them but I regarded the fact that I live in the United States on an overstayed visa!!! I should have sent them a notice to adjust my status instead of paying the $70 and $400 fees that I already paid, apparently. I am not leaving the country to interview overseas with the NVC because that would put me in a 10 year ban obviously, I also do not understand how I can adjust my status with the USCIS once the priority date becomes current when I do not have a status as of now! So, I might've done all these for nothing. I've talked to some lawyers on the phone but they have completely shut my hopes down (maybe because I haven't paid them?). I do not have the money to pay for an expensive lawyer because all my funds can barely afford my college.
On top of everything, DREAM act just got rejected from the congress as I'm getting ready to graduate from college. I have no idea what to do.
With my college degree and knowledge that I have acquired over the years, I believe that I am an inevitable asset to this country but I am deeply saddened by the fact that American Dream is not becoming a reality for me. I know I can do more for the world but I'm immobilized by the system which I don't see any loopholes to at this point. I understand the views of the Republicans but I really wish that they can give one more look at the DREAM act. We do not intentionally break the law. I would actually be a law-abiding and a model citizen if I ever become one.
Anyhow, I lost all my hopes and dream in this country at this point in time, that I think the only/best way is to move back to where I am from immediately upon graduation.
If there is any hope, your help/advice/inputs will be greatly appreciated!
