hello all..
im currently living in NJ and my i-140 was approved.. since im on EB3 and my priority date is on 4/2008 i still have some time to wait in order for a visa to be eligible to me..
my main concern is : i would like to know if its possible for me to obtain a driver license with the approval notice i received from USCIS (i -797c Notice of action).. does my employer will need to fill out any forms for for that to happen ?? if so, what kind of forms :(
any help is appreciated..

Please complete your profile, so that those responding are able to understand your situation better.
I assume that your I-485 is not yet filed. If it is true, you must be having a H1-B or other work visa to maintain your work status. If yes, those are the documents you will need to get Drivers License extensions.
To my knowledge, approved I-140 is not an immigration status that can enable you to get a Drivers License extended on its own.

Hi,
Apologies for any inconvenience caused by this thread.
Does 1 require a UK Visa if they are travelling on British Airways? As i have my parents travelling from India to USA on British Airways(they have Multiple B1/B2 US Visa)..
Spoke to BA &they advised me to speak to UK Consulate.:(
Any info be helpful.
Thnx
You need a UK Transit Visa only if you don't have a valid USA VISA stamped in the passport.
My Parents always use BA, and they never take a UK transit visa.
But if i use BA to visit India, in the near future i would be taking a transit visa, as my H1 Visa on the passport has expired (Using H1 Extension Approval right now)

Canada has the world's largest oil reserves and the unnoticed scramble for control of the arctic area has been in the works for a while. The US had many opportunities to secure high skilled labor in the interest of economic prosperity, instead other countries such as Canada, Australia, Ireland, Germany etc had the foresight to realize the positive economic impact these workers have, the US didn't and the result is that its archaic immigration policies are beginning to demonstrate the consequences:
The Canadian government says the jurisdiction is clear � they're Canadian waters. But the U.S. and some other countries don't agree. They see the Northwest Passage as an international strait that any ship should be free to transit.

Even of greater significance was the recent claim by Russia to the entire North Pole:

If she is out of the USA, what you could do is file a 'follow to join' petition with the US consulate in your country when your PD is current. You could file this if the marriage occurs before your GC is approved.

Workvisaforall,
Considering you are an immigration attorney. Will you help me in my query?
My daughter is 2.5 years old and is on H4. She is receiving some modelling offers for commercials and photo prints. I understand since she is on H4 she cannot work. But can I apply for her EAD and work SSN by which she can work on these assignments?
I am looking at this purely for my daughters personal development and no big money is involved but still I dont want USCIS to think she is working even though she is on H4.
Your insights are appreciated.
Unfortunately, there is not going to be a hard consensus and a good satisfying answer until USCIS comes out and fixes the law. The problem comes from inconsistent USCIS memoranda as to whether an employer who moonlights on EAD has "left" his employer.
AILA has recognized this inconsistency and has provided us, immigration attorneys, with guidance on arguing why the inconsistency should be construed to mean that moonlighting on EAD while preserving H-1B is ok; however, nobody can guarantee that the USCIS will agree with these arguments 100% of the time.

I just called USCIS to check the status of my case and the Immigration Officer said it is in EB-1 category. I know my case is EB-2.
I asked the IO to see if i have send any paperwork to rectify their mistake, but she said USCIS will automatically adjust the category whe it picks up the case for review
I am confused. Please Advice
PD: Aug 2005
EB2 - I
140 receipt says 203(b)(2)

Hi,
I am unable to determine if the 180 day timeline is calculated from RD or ND? There are different opinions here in this forum and no clear answer. Is there a law text that defines this clearly...does anybody know?
yea...I did search this and some of the other forums :confused:

No... as long as you can show ties to the US (owning a house, paid taxes, etc) you should be OK. In a situation where a company has sent you overseas, if you have adequate documentation to prove that the company had sent you overseas and you are still on the payroll here, you should be OK. Although, to be safe, I would probably try to make a couple of trips back to the US in a year to maintain resident status.

Guys,
I am July 3rd RD, 485 EBe Filer. My wife received her EAD. We had our FPs done and all cheques cleared.
My status shows that my application has been transferred from Nebraska to Texas on Sept 6th.
However, I am yet to receive my EAD.
I made an Infopass appointment for interim EAD. Is there anyone in the same boat?

STATUS:
AOS - ADJUSTMENT OF STATUS.
Filed for GC (permanent residence), and waiting for it. (explanation)
I have just signed a contract to buy a new home.
The first step is to be eligible for mortgage.
During an interview with mortgage counsellor, she asked my visa status.
I tried explaining her that I was not on H1 and had not received GC yet, that I am on EAD.
But she did not understand it. She only understands H1 or GreenCard.
I am not on H1 since I changed my employer and it expires this October.
I have also travelled on Advanced parole.
Recent EAD is good until 2010.
Can anyone help?

H-1B Quota is still available for all employers. Employers who have not yet proceeded with new H-1B filing can go ahead now too as per their business requirements. After many years since the Cap of H-1B started, it is still available even after Sept. 30, 2009. As of this writing, there are still H1B cap numbers available, both in the advanced-degree and regular H1B quotas. This means that H1B petitions can still be filed for fiscal year 2010. These filings can continue, as long as the cap numbers are available.
We like to share that H-1B petitions can be filed throughout FY10, until the cap numbers are all depleted. Petition filed under the 2010 Cap after October 1, 2009, the start date of work requested can be immediate. Since October 1, 2009 has already passed, and the H-1B numbers are still available, filings may request an immediate validity date. Like earlier, the start date for H-1B work can be as much as six months in the future, depending upon the needs of an employer. Usually one has to start the H-1B Cap process 6 months in advance of the requested start of employment, employers were all doing so in order to increase their chances of obtaining one of the limited cap numbers. Thus, cases were filed at the beginning of April, requesting an October 1st start date. However, we are now beyond October 1st, and Cap numbers remain available, it is possible to pick a more desirable start date, ranging from immediate to six months in the future.
There is not much progress in cases filed in FY 2010 quota yet. However, there is sharp increase in filings. The regular cap increased by 1600 cases between the end of August and the end of September, for a total of 46,700 as of September 25, 2009. This reflects a higher rate of filings than in the prior few months which may be due to re-filings and fresh filing as per upcoming requirements. We will keep you posted on further developments.

Please see below I-140 ref. I do understand that they need me to submit an experience letter including employment date and specific duties, but how to handle the second evidence? If the specific duties on my previous employer�s experience letter already includes those H14 specific skill and other requirements, is that enough? Or I will still need to find something else to support/proof them? Thanks!
"Submit evidence that the beneficiary obtained the required three years of experience in the job offered before January xx, 2010, the priority date. Evidence of experience must be in the form of letters from current or former employers giving the name, address, and title of the employer and a description of the experience of the beneficiary, including specific dates of the employment and specific duties.
Submit evidence that the beneficiary obtained the specific skill or other requirements as indicated on the labor certification, page 3 of 15, #H.14. Please provide proof that the specific skills or other requirements were acquired prior to the priority date."

Thanks! We filed today.. they'll will receive tomorrow.
My 485 is pending, so I think I won't be totally out of status..
Any suggestion on how we can approch sending the approved LCA later and ask USCIS to match it to the already submitted H1B petition?

yes, they are right. if you try to file GC now then they will calculate your stay period and ask you to leave the country immediately (they wont even wait for july 2011). I think it makes sense to go out of country asap for one full year, come back with new H1 and then start the GC process. Alternatively if ur spouse is working and is on valid status then convert to H4. you can start ur GC process on H4 too. Once labor is approved activate your H1 and file for 7th-8th year extension.
im not a lawyer but my experience with immigration gives me the knowledge to suggest you the above. in such critical time its always worth to contact an immigration lawyer and seek advice.
