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

It is not a problem with EAD. I am on H1B. I have already received 2 temp. driving certificates. I am expecting one more temp. certificate before getting the original plastic card. The DMV officials told me that there are lot of immigrant people from India, China and Mexico. So the under-staffed dept requries more time to validate.

Now because all embassies and consulates required to use PIMS to verify your H1B status... sometimes takes several weeks to get the passport stamped. In my case takes 3 weeks after interview to get my passport back (embassy at Lima, Peru).
So beware of the timing
I just bring a copy of my wife H1B approval and copy of lasts taxes ... just in case

HI,
I received a 500$ check for apartment referral , I am planning to give the entire amount to the person who took the apartment. I was wondering if during the tax return filing I should be reporting this as an income and if yes should I be deducting the tax amount from the 500$ as I will be paying taxes on it.
Any information is appreciated.
Thanks,
It is a taxable income (you got a commission for a service). However such a small change in your total household income should change your tax liability very little, and usually people would not bother to withold tax before passing it on. Also if you pass it on, that will probably fall under "gift" and will have different tax codes. For a small amount, such hassles may not be worth. Of course if you get such commissions regularly, or if it a sizable part of your total income, then you need proper calculations.

San Diego Restaurant, The French Gourmet Inc., indicted recently for knowingly making false attestations on I-9 Forms, hiring employees unauthorized to work in the U.S., and employing those aliens after learning of their ineligibility to work. U.S. v. The French Gourmet Inc. is the case, and you can read it here:
French gourmet compalint (http://www.slideshare.net/usvisalaw/french-gourmet-compalint)View more documents (http://www.slideshare.net/) from usvisalaw (http://www.slideshare.net/usvisalaw).
In May 2008, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents executed a criminal search warrant at, The French Gourmet, and have taken workers suspected of being illegally in the country into custody. ICE has arrived at worksites with both criminal and civil warrants. It has searched businesses, frozen bank accounts, and arrested not only employees but also employers. This recent indicment sends a clear message to employers.
We keep reminding employers to ensure compliance with the I-9 requirements under IRCA, a company should establish an I-9 policy that includes:
* The proper and timely completion and retention of Form I-9 for all employees hired after November 6, 1986;
* Zero-tolerance for the employment of individuals who do not provide the proper identity and employment eligibility documents for Form I-9;
* A tickler system for I-9s that require reverification;
* I-9 training for all company representatives who are part of the recruitment, orientation, and hiring processes for the company; and
* Regularly scheduled in-house I-9 audits.
Conducting self-audits puts a company in better position if it becomes the subject of an ICE investigation. While employers cannot verify whether documents used for employment authorization are authentic, self-audits establish good-faith compliance.

I (and my spouse as dependent) applied for I-485, AP, and EAD on July 17, 07 and am yet to get the receipt notice. My (and my spouse's) H-1 expires on 12/31/07 and I plan to travel out of the US between November 8 and December 24.
In case, the I-485 receipt notice does not come before we leave, would we be considered as having abandoned the PR application? Any idea how long it might take for the receipt notice to come for people in my shoes?

Dear Friends,
Could somebody help us with an urgent question?
In our 485 application, the lawyer put my divorce certificate from my previous marriage in my file but not in my wife's file. According to the 485 instruction, my divorce certificate should be included in my wife's file as initial evidence because she is the derivative applicant.
Will USCIS deny my wife's 485?

Hi all,
I am on H4 visa now. Got a long awaited job (with EAD) which will start in June 2011. My I-94 is till september 2010 becoz H4 is stamped till that date. But I have I94 with I-797 till June 2011(6 years of H4). I want to travel to India before i start my job, probably in may. My husband is still on H1 visa eventhough he has EAD.
1.Can i travel on H4 status as i m not holding a job right now? My 797 is only till june 2011. If i go for stamping, it is more likely to get rejected.
2. Can i use EAD and AP eventhough i am not working rightnow? Are there any chance of denying my reentry with AP?
I cannot afford to loose my job and due to personal reasons, i can't avoid the travel. Please give your valuable advice.
You can use your AP for travel and come in as a Parolee even if you are not working.
Since you think you will have trouble getting H4 stamped, coming in using AP is the best thing to do.
Usually, travel with AP is smooth. If the officer asks you the reason for your travel, tell him/her that you went to see your family (don't say that you went on vacation). Make sure that you take the copy of your I-485 receipt notice and your original EAD with you, just in case. You will be sent for secondary inspection but, don't worry, that is normal practice for Parolees.
Good luck with your travel.

Hi guys,
I have the following clarification:
Earlier, I was working with Employer A and came to US after getting H1-B stamped.
Subsequently, my spouse has got her H4 visa stamped.
So, both of our visas are valid till 30th Sept 2007. My wife joined me in December 2005.
Then I changed my employer in April 2006, where I got my I-129 approved from Employer B.
In the meantime, my wife/spouse went to India in April 2006 & came back to US using old visa on July 15th 2006.
At port of Entry she got I-94 valid till 30th Sept 2007 (validity date of the old visa A)
I never got her I-94/H4 using the new I-129 from Employer B (Current Employer).
On July 3rd, I submitted my I-485 AOS for both of us.
I have the following question:
1. Is her I-94 still valid based on the old visa ?
2. Will there be any issues for not filing for H4 visa till now, even though I am planning to
apply right away as her I-94 is getting expired on 30th Sept 2007.
3. Is she out of Status as I left the old employer more than 180 days ago.
4. Will she have any issues as far as AOS is concerned.
Your valuable views will be highly appreciated.

As you have well passed the LC stage, it is very difficult to retain your old PD. Even if DOL send a new LC with old PD, it will be an uphill task to convey this to USCIS your to ammend your already approved 140 with new PD. This new PD information has to be carried over to both I-140 and 485. If you get a new letter/LC from DOL inform the USCIS (both 140 and 485) thro all means, like send a certified mail, inform over phone and take a infopass to correct the PD. Then keep your finger crossed.

Well I'm not sure about datalists but assuming you have edited the object in memory the binding should reflect the edits. If not I usually just write a Requery method which queries the data source again and rebinds the offending control
You might want to have a look at CSLA - it's a library for maniuplation of business objects supporting parent/child collection heirarchies, error providing, multiple undo levels etc etc - it certainly speeds up creating a business app around here. We usually combine it with CSLAGen which is a template generator based on CodeSmith which generates CSLA objects for you from a database schema - all you need to do is write the sprocs which get/update/delete the data and then it does the rest (you might tweak it a little here and there).
It's got a bit of a learning curve but once you know what you are doing it's invaluable! That would solve your refresh issues :)

My Permanent residency is being processed thru Employer A (I-140 not done yet).
Employer A also holds my H1B. This is my only H1B, and it extends based on approved labor as I am on my 7th year if H1B.
If A files for Chapter 11, will my H1B and permanent residency get cancelled/revoked?
If my current H1B is valid till Nov 2010, and employer A files for chapter 11 in Dec 2010, will I be able to stay/work in US at least till Nov 2010?
What will be my options if H1B / GC gets cancelled? Can I transfer this H1B to a different employer? Or, can a different employer has to file for a new H1B? :confused:
Your answer/advices are highly appreciated.
GC/H1 sponsoring employer filing Ch11 has no implications on your current H1 or pending GC until the company starts liquidating (files Ch7). I have been in the same situation and I just recently used AC21 and changed employers by transferring my H1 to my new employer. Original company has been in Ch11 since Jan'09. My 8-11 yrs H1 extension (based on approved I-140) with my original company was pending when they filed Ch11 and USCIS had no issues approving it in Mar. As long as your current position is not eliminated (laid off), there is no problem. It will definitely be an issue if the company announces Ch7 liquidation before you can transfer to a new employer. Once the company is in Ch7 and USCIS figures it out, then it could revoke your H1 or send a NOID on your I-485. Hope this helps.

Hi,
I am a B.COM and AICWA. I have also completed CA-Inter. I have totally 12 years of experience out of which 7 years in IT and 5 years Non-IT. I am currently working as Program Manager. My Labour is approved. My company is trying to get a evaluation done.
Would there be any issues when concurrently filing for I-140 and I-1485 with regard to the Education Evaluation.
Make sure you use a detailed evaluation from a reputed evaluator. Do not provide generic evaluation as we do while applying fir H1B.
Evaluation should specifically equate your B.Com degree to a 4 year US degree. + 5 years experience if you filed in EB2. (your labor should have a requirement of BS + 5 years progressive experience)
If filed for EB3 the evaluation should equate your B.Com degree as to equivalent of a 4 year US degree.
I am hoping that this is not a labor substitution case and you labor is YOURS and requirement is Bachelors in Business or Finance or Commerce.
Since you did not post details of your labor, I am not sure people can help you much with specifics.
some helpful pointers.
Try not to club your experience to come up with education equivalency.
If your labor is perm make sure you are already being paid what is on the labor approval.
Try not to use your CA-Inter or AICWA. Keep it simple and straightforward.
I am assuming there is no ability to pay issue and the company is green on its financials.

gcsucks,
I have done quite some research on this. Bottom line is you are taking major chance in loosing it unless one of the following applies.
1) You are married to Canadian citizen.
2) Your company is Canadian (or has office in Canada who can give letter that you are direct employee of a Canadian company working abroad).
Otherwise you are taking chance. The airlines etc will still let you board a plane etc to go there, and Canadian Govt is bound to let you in, but then you will have to fight a case against the cancellation of PR order and its a mess.
I would say decide one way or the other. I know its easie said than done.
If you are in EB3, than unless new laws are passed or something changes, you could go to Canada, live there 3 yrs, get Canadian citizenship and your PD will still be waiting for you at May 1st when you come back.
Best of luck
