Hi All,
I got my COS from H4 to F1 approved in first semester itself (Fed-2010), now my questions is I don�t have plans for going to India in next couple of years so after completing my masters can I apply for OPT without having the F1 Visa stamping OR should I have to get F1 Visa stamping in India in order to get the OPT after my masters.
You can get OPT after completion of your masters program you don't need visa for OPT .
Thanks

I am planning to go to Canada for H1B visa stamping. Will there be any problem if i have company on H1B. I opened in 2003 and My friend is working in that company. I am working for my employer only. Will there be any problem if i have company either in GC stage or getting Visa in Canada.
Thx
You can venture business interest even if you are on H1 unless you dont work for that company..
Good Luck With Your Stamping!!!

In Franz Kafka's chilling story "The Metamorphosis", a man wakes up one morning to find that he has been transformed into a "gigantic insect". Recently, a California family, all permanent residents for over 30 years, was suddenly informed by the government that they were all illegal aliens and must return to Thailand. Mr. Promsiri entered the United States on a student visa. His wife and two young sons, aged 10 and 3 joined him in 1971. In 1975, the parents obtained a divorce from a Thai Consulate in the U.S. The wife married an American citizen, and the couple honeymooned...

I think it would be better idea to call them and find out their hours of operation. The address is usually given on the FP notice letter.
All the best!
I think: We donot have a choice. We have to show up on the day and time given on FP notice. If we can't- we have to request uscis for re-scheduling.

1.) Is it true that nurses do not need to undergo Labor Certification when applying for an immigrant visa because nurses are considered as shortage occupations? How does the labor certification process for nurses vs other professionals/workers differ? Is it the pre-certification and recruiting process (that does have to be completed) under PERM?
2.) If a nurse on H1B visa is petitioned by her current employer for green card, which is preferable (in terms of better chances of being approved, easier processing, lesser requirements): to petition her using the same position (specialty occupation), or as a staff nurse?

Interesting comment on one of old BusinessWeek articles.It strongly highlights power an employer holds over H1-B employee.
http://www.businessweek.com/globalbiz/blog/bangaloretigers/archives/2006/11/us_software_tal.html
"'m not at all surprised that the first few comments on this post have been very skeptical of the skills shortage.
No matter how you feel about the alleged shortage, you have to acknowledge that the H1B gives the employer a remarkable amount of power over the employee's life. The employer bestows the right to live in the United States upon the employee, and often sponsers the employee's application for a green card. Changing employers is not impossible, but it is tricky and perilous.
As an American, I can quit my job and become a contractor. An H1B can't. If my girlfriend decides to move across the country for a new job, I can quit my old job and go with her. An H1B can't. If I decide I'm tired of programming, I can quit and apply to law school. An H1B can't. And, most importantly, if I think I'm talented and should earn well above market rate, I can go into my boss's office and negotiate with the knowledge that I'm free to find a better deal elsewhere. An H1B can't - unless, of course, he's willing to give up on his wait for a green card and return to his country of origin and start all over again.
While I'm not a protectionist in any way, I view the indenturedness of the H1B visa as an affront to everything America claims it believes about human and economic freedoms. No employer should ever have this kind of power over an employee.
Congress is perfectly capably of creating an employment category for foreign nationals that preserves freedom for the engineer who comes to America. They still haven't. Why? Well, the most likely explanation is that the corporations who lobby for this visa *enjoy* this power over engineers. And this, in turn, leads to work conditions that drive America's best and brightest away, into careers in law, medicine, finance, and so forth, exacerbating the very shortage that the visa was designed to address.
Unlike some of the posters here, I'm ok with the existence of skilled worker visas. But any increase should be off the table until basic human and economic freedoms are preserved for the worker. In America, you have the right to quit your job. Period. "

You do not need EAD as your have GC. You can stay and work using your GC. EAD is required while your GC is under process.

The clear language of the regulation says that you must be in valid H status when leaving in order to return in that status. Unfortunately, this doesn't apply to your wife.

I am sure this may have been asked already but I coudn't find a thread.
I have an approved and valid extension on my H1 but my EAD expired in august and my AP expired last month. I didn't file for an EAD/AP renewal yet because I was not using them and wanted to delay it for a few months and save some money.
Will there be any problem with a delayed EAD/AP filing ?

My emp. filed H1 ext in Jan 2011 and got RFE.
My (existing) H1 extension is expiring on 25th March... which is just less than a week away.
and my employer may submit RFE documents in First week of May...
What would be my legal status during this period?
My H1 extension was filed with regular processing, Is it advice able to upgrade it to premium while or before submitting the RFE docs?
Please advice.
Thx....

Hi,
I have approved labor (filed Apr 2004 and cleared Jan 2007) in EB2 category. But it was filed wrongly in EB2 as somehow it got cleared. But now I got RFE on I-140 and there is a verly bleak chance of getting it cleared.
In the meantime I am thinking to file a new labor by PERM (from same employer). I have few questions regarding this:
1. Can I file new labor in PERM without affecting my current labor and I-140 ?
2. Do I have to mention in my new labor about my old labor and I-140 ?
3. Can I use different experience letters in new labor as my old labor is in jeopardy because of experience letters only.
Thanks
DC

What do you mean by reputation?
Having a good website or a forum does not mean the lawyer is reputed. Even small lawyers can be good and can pay more attention to a case. Some lawyers do not know marketing and do not have good website, but they maybe good in law.
