Hello everyone,
According to my immigration-lawyer, I have received a notice for interview. I filed under EB2 category and only my and my wife's I-485 is pending. I had friends who got their GC without the interview, but i got called of an interview, so I was wondering why i got called for an interview-any specific reasons that some of us get called for an interview?
Another questions is; i read some blogs and almost all the people who were called for an interview seem to get a list of documents from the INS to take along for the interview. My attorney didnot mention anything about the list, so do all interview notices come with the document list or is it normal to not have one?
Please any insight in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Port of entry doesn't matter. You can leave from JFK and come back through California. It totally depends on your airlines and the route you choose. I have done it many times.
Not sure about 2months left on your visa thing. I don't have any comment on that.

Your case has moved to another office, usually it happens when they schedule an interview at local office.

Hi ,
I was on F1 visa till oct 2008 and then a consulting firm file for my H1B . It was approved and my status has been changed . I tired a lot but i didn't get any project and i am on bench till oct 2008 and i am still on there H1B. Although in the mean time i was enrolled in school and never quit the school as i am working on my project in school and i always had valid I20 and valid I94 and F1 stamped on my passport till dec 2011. I am still enrolled in school.
Now my emplyer is saying to file COS and go back to F1, but i don't have paystubs and he is not giving me as he said being a bug company we dont do this.
I talked with a attorney he is filing my COS.
1) is there anyone in the same situation evr ?
1) Is there any other way i can follow?
2) what percent are there chances that my COS will get denied or accepted?
3 ) My employer is still marketing my resume?
Any Suggestions welcome!!
THANKS in advance

Another question on the form:
In G-639 form, Should port of entry and date of entry be the latest one or when we entered first time in the US?

I am on H1B visa. Can I trade in Forex using FOREX or any other online broker? Also, I need to trade in it multiple times on a single day. That's the nature of this business if you want to make money.

Are you using "Save for web"? That removes the EXIF, use "Save as..." instead.

All,
I am currently unemployed and my spouse needs to travel to Mumbai urgently. Our AP is valid through November 30, 2009. Will there be any issues for my wife when she comes back - possibly because of my current status. Wife is employed (with a different company)& the EAD/AP was filed by my last employer. Responses will be appreciated. Thanks!
She will not have any issues in entering as long as her 485 is pending. Make sure, she gets back before the AP expires.

What happens when the laws of America clash with the laws of physics? In the Never-Never Land of Immigration, the natural laws of physics must defer to human-made law. This is the absurd answer of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Status (USCIS), the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) and the Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit (CA5) in its Sept. 29 decision, Bokhari v. Holder. The case involves the interpretation of a USCIS regulation, 8 C.F.R. � 274a.12(b)(20), which came into being because of the problems caused by bureaucratic delay. The regulation allows the automatic grant of work permission for up...

Thanks for the reply.
1. I got my H1B extended while I am here in US. After going back to India, are there any issues in getting the visa revalidated, since an immigration petition has been filed on my behalf?
2. Is H1-B extension based on I-140 possible when not in US?

Hi,
My I140 is approved and I485 is pending. I am working Full Time as a Software Devloper on EAD with a Consulting Company. I have been offered a part time work of same nature by my friend. He has a company and he offers to pay me on 1099.
Would it be ok to work part time(15 Hrs. per week) and accept payment on 1099.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Nid

Hi,
I would really appreciate if someone throws some light on this issue. I am a J1 scholar at the University of Pennsylvania. I do not know what category that is because I am not paid either by my sponsor (upenn) or by my own government(India).
Who does pay you? Don't your paychecks come from UPenn? Even if a company is sponsoring your project, technically the company is paying UPenn, and you are being paid by UPenn.
Now, i wish to get enrolled in a full time MS program of University of Arkansas. In order to do that, should I apply for transfer of J1 from UPenn to U of A ...or should apply of transfer of visa from J1 to F1.
As far as I remember, you cannot be a full-time student in J1. You need to get F1.
In case I apply for F1, can I :
1. Start my classes till my transfer from j1 to f1 is pending
No, you must get F1 on hand.
2.receive assistantship or on campus employment from UofA till my status from j1 to f1 is pending?
Thanks in advance.
No, you must get F1 on hand.
In any case, the International Student's Office in U of A will be able to tell you the exact requirements (they will not let you join unless you have the right VISA in hand), and basically you must follow what they say. Typically universities handle visa norms very strictly.

I happened to read the following on a different thread on IV
"for cases that has to be filed by overnight courier that is by the USPS Express Mail the center will only pick up mails from the U.S Postal Service once a day and in the morning. Therefore any mail that is not picked up in the morning will be picked only the following day and is given a next day receipt date."
Does it mean that any packages that were sent out yesterday(Thursday) will be delivered today(Friday), but USCIS will only pick it up on Monday morning and then assign Monday as the receipt date? Anyone with some knowledge on this, please clarify.

Nothing written in stone but from anecdotal evidence.. NO
They process 485s according to RD.
Approval only comes after PD is current though

I'm curious if anyone has got multiple RFEs on their I-485 application. I had an EVL RFE last year and wonder about the chances they'll give that (or any other) RFEs again in future.
Any personal experiences?
By multiple RFE I don't mean many questions in 1 RFE letter. I mean USCIS sends you 1 RFE, receives reply and resumes the case and then at a later point in time sends another RFE on the same application.
No personal experience but based on recent visa bulletin and slow movement prediction going forward I would not be surprised if they send another EVL RFE, especially if your PD is more recent. This is because if and when your PD is approaching to be current, that could take 2, 3 4 or even 5 years. They may ask for EVL again to verify you still have a job offer after 5 years.

Hello,
I (Indian citizen) am on H1B and wife is on H4 (Canadian citizen). If we plan to get some franchisee and invest money from our savings, will she be eligible for E2 visa and work as an owner?
Thank you!

Hello,
I was on valid 3-year H1 visa until Dec 2010. I got layed off in Feb 2009.
I found another employer to file my H1 transfer case in April '09 and the case is still pending (regular processing). We received a RFE asking for my most recent pay stubs and employer info recently.
The question I have is if the H1 transfer gets denied, what do I do next? How much time do I have to leave the US? Do they give time to pack and make plans to leave? I don't want to face deportation. Also, I have a valid 10- year B1/B2 visa stamped on my passport. Can I use that in any way.
Your response is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Your status is governed by the last I-94 which I assume is based on the H1B visa. Once you have had the H1B stamped on the passport, the B1 would have become invalid at that point (even though you may not have the "cancelled without prejudice" stamp on it).
Now, if your H1B gets denied, God forbid, you have 10 days to leave.
I wish you good luck.
