For first time H1B stamping, do we have to get it done in our Home country (India in my case)? Or can we get it done in Canada or Mexico?
I am currently on my OPT and have applied for my H1B visa. Your input will be appreciated!
Thanks

You think the quota this coming year will be exhausted on 1st April itself? Or do you guess that its going take longer, if not as long as this past year?
my guess would be its going to last a few months again. Not as long as 2009 (ie. not till Christmas) but definately not on the 1st of April.
The H1 usage is a good reflection of the economy and the rate of hiring. Both have been bad, are expected to still be bad till April and only slowly start to pick up. So demand will be more than this year because:
- economy is expected to better, hiring is now slowly starting.
- many companies who were prevented from hiring H1s under TARP limitations are now out of TARP (this applies to the finance sector on the east coast, not so much to the west coast IT companies).
the only thing that could push down demand if there is some kind of immigration change like the ones that Sen. Grassley etc have been pushing for, trying to make H1s more restrictive.

you may need to apply for h4 again since she used the EAD. Discussing with a good attorney who is knowledgable on this case is very important. Hope you have not used your EAD if got one. If used the issues can be worse as you may lose your h1B status as well.
Please update your case. I may also face such a sitaution . But not sure at this moment.
Which service center you applied the AOS and when?
Shaji.
My wife got EAD card while she was on H-4 (I am on h-1). She used it for few months. She got RFE for 485 for visascreen (for nurses). It looks like she will not be able to produce the visascreen certificate within the RFE date and after grace period (33 days after denial notice of RFE).
Now when she gets the denial notice for I-485, subsequently, the EAD status becomes invalid. in this case, what will be the staus?
H-4 or no staus?
Upon the denial, do i need to reapply for H-4 status or she gets the h-4 status automatically since she has H-4 and EAD evan though she used EAD in the past.
Currently on passport, the H-4 status expires on Feb 08.

Thanks for your reply. By B1 Visa, I meant that I will go to client side and understand the project and meanwhile my employer will file my H1 Transfer. and on B1 I wont get paid.
I have seen the giuys who come on B1 from their Indian Offices for 1-2 month period.
Suggestions are really appreciated since client is not agreeing to extend the joining date and that the only criticality I have in my situation.
Any Experience is highly appreciated.

Hello I am leaving for India in two days and have still not received my H1B approval. The receipt date is May 19th 2009. It is being processed at the CA center, is there anything I can to do get it soon.
It was a regular processing one, not the Premium processing one.
Help please!!!!
I am not sure what kind of help you are expecting from members. It seems you already are aware of Premium Processing (PP) service. If you had travel plans, you should have filed H1 under PP and not under regular processing. Anyways, you can upgrade your pending H1 to PP now by filing a form I-907 along with a copy of H1 receipt notice. But I dont think you will get your approval in the next 2 days. It usually takes atleast a week to 10 days to get it, that if its approved with no RFEs.

Background checking process is very risky and a tedious job. The time depends on the intensity of the report of the background check is desired to be. It may take from minutes to days, months or years.

Can i travel back to USA via London/UK without a valid US visa but with a valid AP?
London is kind of picky to make sure we have a valid US visa when traveling via their country and have to change planes.
My friend was coming back to USA via Emirates (Dubai/London/USA) and he was prevented to board the Dubai to London segment because he did not have a valid USA visa and they were not considering the AP documents.
Flew in on BA via London using my AP in February and everything was fine. They all know what an AP is. But I hope you are aware that you are required to have a UK transit visa since you do not have a valid US visa; just an AP. That's approx $92 per visa.
Or you can perform a search on these forums for a thread that listed the airlines (countries, actually) that do not require you to have a transit visa if you are reentering US on a AP.
Thanks,
Jayant

Hi,
In DS-156 form there is an item 36 which says "Has anyone ever filed an immigration visa petition on your behalf",
What should be entered for H4 visa holder whose 485 has been filed.
And if we have to say "Yes" to this question , then whose name should be mentioned in "If Yes ,Who?", should it be the spouse name or the spouse company name ?
Thanks

Hi
I got my GC approved for me and son (I485 application) in Nov 2007. I got my gc, whereas for my son who is 7 year old though he got I485 approved yet he did not get his GC. They mentioned they might need his finger print and so far no response from them. This is despite several follow up with them.
Last year 7 months he was not in US and now can he go to India and he will be there rest of this year.
Will it affect his GC and when will he get his GC?
thanks
Kumar

Hi All,
I sent h1b extension application to california center on june 22nd and my application is still not approved. My current visa was valid until July 30th. I need to travel to India on Dec 10th due to urgent reasons . Please suggest what should I do
1. Can I travel while my extension is pending?
2. Can I raise a service request to speed up the processing?
2. or Upgrading to PP is the only option?
I do have EAD and advance parole through my husband's GC application. If I use parole for travel what happens to my H1b visa and GC application filed through my employer. My visa will still be valid or not?
Please help...
Thanks in advance

Answers:
1. There is nothing/ no one who can stop you from travelling if you want. The question to worry about is can you come back ;) (I know it is a smart alec answer, but couldn't resist it - and that is indeed the bottom line).
2. SR to speed up processing might not be of much help
3. PP will certainly make it time bound - however, even in case of PP, they can send the application for administrative process, which can still take more than the time you have
Now, what happens in case you travel while the application is still pending? Your application for extension will be considered abandoned, and for re-entry, you will necessarily need to use AP. And since your extension is considered abandoned, you will necessarily need to use EAD to work, even for your current employer (that had filed the extension).
Hope it helps.

That's helpful.
So, it doesn't matter if I have GC pending with company A, and I am over 6 years on H1B. Will company B be still able to get H1B extension since my I-485 is pending(with comp A)?
