Hello,
Assuming a 40 hr/week position, a person works 2080 hours per year. The Annual Salary for a $46/hr position is $95680/year.
Also, if you only have annual salary for the new position, you could convert to hourly by dividing by 2080.
But I wouldn't even worry about all this. Just send in the annual salary figure (just for your own satisfaction make sure it is more than $46 per hour) and USCIS will figure out the rest.
Hope that helps.
Actually if you factor in 10-12 holidays and about 20 VC days it will come to roughly 1824 hours a year or roughly 152hr/month avg.

You can retain your PD if your employer does not repeal your existing Labor Certification. In other words as long as your Labor is not cancelled you can apply in EB2 and get the labor approved (typically takes 3-5 months in PERM depending on how fast your Attorney is).
In fact, I am in the same boat, just waiting for my EB3 Labor to be approved.. I am a Manager + I also have Master's .. so, I'll also be doing the same.. Pls do share your experiences how the transfer is working..

Hi Guys,
I just learnt about the news in Business week on starting discussions for increasing Visa Numbers to help alleviate our pain.
Skilled Workers May See Green-Card Surge (Link:
http://www.businessweek.com/bwdaily/dnflash/content/jul2007/db20070718_068854.htm)
With this in mind I was wondering whether we can compile list of victims of Immigration system based on state and send it to each senator asking for help in moving Skill bill and other pro-immigration reforms cleared.
We can also indicate some on the main issues we are facing as a summary to each senator to make the people understand what kind of roller coaster our lives are
Information that can be captured to indicate the wait time and different ways we are affected.
Name, State, PD, approx Expected approval date (with approx 750000 thousand applications in July) and what effect this would cause on our lives
A) Family torn apart (kids growing older than 21, etc)
B) Cannot live the American dream by excelling in work to higher position and benefits for average 5 - 10 years - cannot change jobs or responsibilities
C) Kids (mostly citizens of US) deprived of basic luxuries because parents cannot buy houses and cannot send them to private schools because of uncertainty in visa status. Most of them manage in rental homes and feel guilty for not able to provide the best for those innocent kids (US citizens)
D) With this long waits, Could not purse higher education because of 6 years limit on H1 and no option to change employer after 6th year because of pending application.
E) Most immigrants are eagerly waiting to start their businesses but are restricted because of visa status and the dream remains dream for most of them because of timing in market and personal life.
F) Some of them are abused by employers who take advantage of the loop holes in the immigration system and long waiting times.
G) Lose of revenue, most of the spouses are well educated and are not able to work because of H1 quota limits or no EAD and it takes on an average 3 -5 years before you get your EAD.
More can be added based on others experiences.
It would be great to get some information about Taxes paid (percentage) by immigrants,
Number of businesses opened etc to make the case stronger.

H1B LUDs may be due to PIMS data collection, I heard most of the H1Bs approved after Jan 2004 had LUDs and the status did not change; and 140 could be a regular system touch.

Hello,
I entered this country (US) on a F1 visa. I've completed my masters and during my post-completion OPT I was offered a job by a company who filed my H1. It was approved in Nov 09 and was valid until Nov 2012. But in Apr 2010 I was laid off and since H1 doesn't have any grace period and I couldn't find an employer ready for a transfer, so I changed my status back to F1. I'm currently working for an IT consulting company (full time) at their client location. The client would like to hire me full time. But since I'm working on my CPT, and do not have a valid H1 visa is it possible that the Client can simply transfer my existing H1 or do they have to file a new H1 as my status has changed. Please suggest as I'm very Confused how to deal with this situation as I do not want to lose an opportunity. Also please do throw some light on any grey areas if present.
Thanks
Pradeep.
There is nothing called "transfer". Every H1-B petition is a new petition. Your employer has to submit a petition on your behalf. Since you have already been counted towards the quota once within the last 6 years, you will not be subject to the quota again.
==============
�(7) Any alien who has already been counted within the 6 years prior to the approval of a petition described in subsection (c), toward the numerical limitations of paragraph (1)(A) shall not again be counted toward those limitations unless the alien would be eligible for a full 6 years of authorized admission at the time the petition is filed. Where multiple petitions are approved for 1 alien, that alien shall be counted only once.�.

Reliable information from my friend's lawyer says that the cap for this year is NOT reached in the 1st one week. I think this means all applications filed in first week will be processed.
Congratulations to all those who applied and hope their cases get approved

The only thing I notice is a little orage that looks unusual on the tip of the rear ducks beak. If that's not it, I don't see anything.
No, it's just the lower centimeter or so of the picture, below the beak, that I've created by cloning, the rest is as captured.
And, uh, swans, by the way. ;)

I am planning to file Labor in EB2. My Attorney sent job requirement which needs Master's + 1 year experience. But my current salary is almost 20k less than prevailing wage (level 4) for senior software engineer. But currently my salary equivalent to wage level 2.
I think i may get query at i140 , But Lawyer suggested Employer would need to be able to demonstrate their ability to pay the difference between actual salary and the prevailing wage at the time of the I-140 filing .
I am unable to get clear picture on wage levels. If i mention Level 2 , will this qualify for EB2?
Any suggestions on this.
Thx
You should be drawing enough pay check to file under EB2 as of prevaling wage.Becareful..lot of screening is going on in PERM..
goto dol website and you can determine which level you belong to...

Is this a good time to Initiate GC process.
------------------------------
I was employed with company A and right now with B, My H1 is Valid till Sep-2010 and can apply for Renewal. My employer is ready to process GC for me.
I am also interested to start the process, my main worry is whether I am eligible to change the employer meantime, or I have to stick to current employer only for few more years which is indefinite.
-- Experts please advice me which is the best option : change the employer and start the GC.. ?
-- or Start GC with current employer and can transfer H1 at the later stage.? if yes at what stage.
-- In current market conditions is it safe to transfer H1
--- Thanks
Raj

EB3 India with PD Feb 2007.
My EAD, AP and II140 are all approved because of the July Fiasco and its been more than 180 days since they all got approved.
I have my EAD and AP in hand, but I140 is with employer. I neither have a copy of it, nor the receipt number/tracking for it . All I know is that it is approved. My employer will not give it to me as it is not required by law. I am still working on H1 (haven't used EAD yet)
Recently the client I am working with asked if I would be interested in a full time with them and said I can use my EAD. Is it possible for me to take up this offer without having any details about my I140 except knowing that it is approved.?
PS: I trust my employer. If they said my I140 is approved, then it is.

I did same 4 years ago. You can travel while your H1B transfer is pending.
1. Can I visit india while my tranfer is pending...???
Yes you can.
2. if I plan to visit india after H1b aproval, do I need to get a new visa stamping for company B or can I travel back with company A visa ..??
I got a new stamping before i came back to US. But while my application was pending, i called US Consulate in India they said you don't need one as long as current stamping on passport is valid. They said you just need to show new company's appointment/employment letter at immigration if questioned. But better to check with attorney, my attorney asked me to get stamped and come back
3. For me to travel back with company A visa , do I need to make sure company A has not informed USCICS to cancel H1b visa.
I think yes. I would suggest to have a premium h1 transfer so that you have new papers in 15 days and you don't depend on your old company's visa
