I found this interesting. Salaries for managers are becoming quite competitive in India apparently.
Given that certain areas are especially hot in India compared to the rest of the economy and that gives you a relatively strong position and quality of life. It seems the gap between US and India is closing for people in certain fields faster than it is closing for the average joe.........for whom it will take generations at best. Perhaps we need to see that perspective.

Got an RFE to produce employment verification letter from my current employer. Yes, i changed the employer recently but didn't file AC-21.
Do you know how long USCIS takes to update the status online?
Thanks.
G.
I am assuming that your lawyer sent it by some means that can verify that it was delivered.
USCIS usually takes about 7-10 days to update it online. (for example, if your RFE response was delivered to USCIS on Aug 10, expect it to be updated around Aug 17-20).
If you do not see update after 15 days of the delivery of the RFE response, call USCIS customer service so they can track it for you.
Hope this helps.
Good Luck.

Gurus,
I need your expert opinion.
While setting up an appointment through VFS for H1B stamping in Mumbai, I am asked the following question:
Are you applying for the same class of visa which is currently valid or has expired within the past 12 months?
Should I answer Yes or No? I guess the answer is Yes since I have a valid I797 H1 approval. But, I need expert opinions from you guys as well. Here is some background:
I have H1 visa stamp through my old employer "O" (with an expiry of March 2006). I changed employer "X" in Nov 2003. My H1B has also been renewed in Nov 2006 (with "X"). i.e. I have had two valid I797 H1 approval notice with "X" since Nov 2003 - one for change of employment through my current employer from Nov 2003 to Nov 2006 and then a renewal from Nov 2006 to Nov 2009 (this is currently valid). I have not been to India since July 2003.
Please advise what the answer to the questions above. Also, is this visa stamping considered a renewal since my old visa stamp is through my old employer?
Thanks.

can you give me the USCIS mailing address where you posted your wife's application. I am in the same situation a bit confused about their mailing address.
thanks
refer to the I-485 instructions - address where you should file application depends under what category you file.

I don't understand this, we are talking about these backlogs, which are effecting about 300K - 500K skilled immigrants, and we only have about 4000 members yet. We should take this as challenge and go on to drive to speak to people like us to increase the members strength, so we will have significant backing and Senate / House / President will pay attention to what we request.

Hello All,
Following is my situation:
1) Recently got my L1 extension approval through company A which is valid through Aug, 2010.
2) I also have a Consular-H1B petition papers from same company A which is valid till Aug,
2011. But i don't have H1B visa stamp in my passport.
*My question is:
Is it possible to do H1B petition transfer from Company A to Company B without COS from L1 to H1?
OR
Should I first apply COS from L1->H1 through company A and then apply for H1B transfer from Company A to company B.
(and I believe for COS to happen i need to be still employed with company A.)
I am not planning to go India now but wanted to apply H1 transfer and work for the new company B in case of my layoff from present company A
Thanks.
Nagesh

2. Can I keep my old passport?

I am currently on H1 Visa in the US. Am I allowed to go to school part-time and get my MBA degree ?
And also, I am looking at a big amount of money that I gotta pay for tuition, does anyone know any tax credits that we can use to reduce the burden ?
Any help/info would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe USCIS would earn more income by telling the illegal immigrants to file EAD/I-485/Biometics every year etc.. Immigration attroneys would earn good money by replying to RFEs for 12 million immigrants. Getting this 12 million illegal immigrants legalized will surely improve the economy.
Everybody would be kept in the same backlog as we are. Illegal immigrants will stand in a que behind the legal immigrants. so you got the point

Hi,
my original labor got approved with a PD in July 2007 with Company A who is my current employer. I also applied for a seperate 140 based on a pre-approved labor in July 2007 with Company B and the PD for that labor is in 2005.
i was told that i can apply for 140/485 with my original labor and once the 140 for the pre-approved labor is approved, i can request for replacing the 140 with the other one with an earlier PD.
could any one repalce the 140 like this? if yes, how long it took for the process. does both 140 needs to be approved to do the interfiling?
what details we need for the 140 that we want to use. just the filing date, A# & approval date or the original or copy of the approval notice.
if Company B or its attoreny is not willing to provide the 140 details or approval notice, is there any way to get those details from INS.
i dont have any details with me except that i know that they applied for 140.

yeah it does seem a bit un-alive. but i'm glad you like it man. Kirupa usually writes back and says - i've added it up when he likes a stamp. He will in time, no doubt but because of various contests that are taking place, perhaps he is very busy. In fact I am trying to think up a competition for him at the moment, but they all seem to have been done at some point in the past - t shirt etc. Perhaps the most obvious idea for a competition on a forum such as this would be a web page design? give people some guidlines and let them design a nice webpage in a sort of css style - but give them a title or ficticious company (perhaps something like - The new official site for Elvis and Graceland) - even if it is not an actual scripted site in html - only a jpg? but god knows who would give out prizes for such a contest. In the recent magazine cover competition (which i am a judge for) someone has offered considerable prizes. Maybe Kirupa could contact lisa marie and ask her ;)

I am told by my lawyers that the likelihood of a second RFE is "very slim". This is because apparently, USCIS will only send RFE if they dont have some information about you such as where you work and such. Once they have procedurally collected information (as they seem to have in your case), they might not come asking for the same info again...
but - as you stated in your question... there is no way to tell for sure...
sorry if this does not help.
Hi:
I received RFE (employment verification letter) from USCIS, texas center two years ago. I was still employed by the company who filed my GC application at that time. So the company replied and my case status was updated. But my PD was not current, so my case is still pending until now.
I lost job recently, if my PD became current in early 2010, will USCIS EVL me again?
I know no one can predict how USCIS works. I just want to check if anyone had experience that was checked employment status twice?
Thanks

CIS is bound by law to not accept early AOS applications. It depends on State published visa dates. So if we can work with State dept to have them publish the dates for Visa posts for CP as they do today (Which is faster) and add CIS processing delay to the Dates and publish second set of dates for AOS which always be atleast 2 years or more added to current dates published by State.
This gives chance to people, who missed their chance to file in AOS in 2007 July. They can atleast get benefits of AC21 in this tough economy.

Hi all
My I-485 is pending(EB-3,India)since 2007. I changed employer & successfully ported PD on new I-140 approval in EB-2 category. My PD is in Oct 2006 & I expect that to become current in the coming few months.
Now, I need to do Interfiling to link my pending I-485 to my new I-140.
(1) What all documents/wordings are required for interfiling? Can someone pls provide a checklist?
(2) Who should do Interfiling- Myself or "Attorney of File" on my original I-485 or my current attorney (who did my new I-140)?
(3) Can I send my Interfiling request to USCIS even before my PD becomes current?
Thanks
Sameer

Hi pkrg21,
So before I-485 becomes current, as long as I-140 gets approved, then we are okay to lose current job, either laid off or change job? I think I-140 approval doesn't take long, right? It's just I-485 takes forever?
I'm quite new to this process. My employer just filed Labor Certificate last week. I'm also a little worried if my employer goes bankruptcy some day.
Thanks,
~ray
