I have a question regarding my spouse who is on H4 visa.One of the company did H1b processing through "CONSULAR PROCESSING". Her H1B is approved now.
1) She is ready to work from Oct 1st as she got some project.Her employer said that they have to apply for amendment(COS) to get I94. Is this right?
The company either has to file a COS or she needs to leave the US and re-enter in H-1B status.
2) How many weeks will it take under premium processing to get new I94
15 calendar days for CIS to make a decision
3) Do they have to apply only after Oct 1.
No. Since she is already counted towards the cap, they can apply now but the start date will be 10/1 or later.
4) Are there any chances of getting rejected at this stage.
There's always a chance of a denial, but the risk is low if she is maintaining H-4 status when the COS is filed.

It is very simple actually. It most likely will take an hour of your time. And will not cost any $$ to you.
You go to the tester with whom your new employer has a contract; tell them you came for a new employee drug test for so and so company; they will take your ID information and if they need a code from the company; they will take your sample and send you on your way.
They will send the results to your employer over the following few days.
Obviously if you don't do any drugs, you will be OK.
In case of a (false) negative, you will get a chance to challenge.

My OPT started on July 12th, 2006 and I did not apply for my H1-B last year because the advanced degree cap quota was reached even before I got my job. Now, my OPT expired on July11th, 2007. My attorney suggested me to use the 60 days grace period to stay in U.S and get my H1-B Visa stamped in Chennai, India (Because, the 60 days grace period will get over by September 11th, 2007 and there is 19 days gap before my H1-B starts). In the H1-B approval notice it is clearly mentioned that I would attend the Chennai consulate for my stamping. The problem is that, I am not able to find available dates in Chennai consulate for H1-B stamping. Can I attend Delhi or Mumbai consulates? Please suggest me a way to come out of this situation.
You will have to fill in Form I-824. The Question 2b - "USCIS to notify a different U.S. Consulate or Port-of-Entry about the approval of an application or petition. Please notify the U.S. Consulate or Port-of-Entry at:", you will select Delhi or Mumbai consulate here. I need to warm you that this is a very slow process and you hardly have any time.
http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-824.pdf
First and foremost, you will have to make sure that you are not overstaying and going beyond your 2 month grace period. Hence make arrangements for international travel and consider this top priority!
Now that I have answered your question. I would like to request you not to open multiple threads asking the same question. Please delete your second thread.
Also, I am hoping that you are aware of this Big Rally event which IV is planning for. Please see if you can contribute towards the Rally in any form.
Note: This is my opinion. Please consult with your Attorney and take any decision.

Speaking of I-140, I have applied that along with I-485 during July 2007 and I got approval in mail (hard copy to my attorney) in Feb'09, but my online status still shows initial review.
Will this be of any issue later? Please advise if anyone had the same issue.

Is letter from employee needed for filing I-485 for my spouse. I filed I-485 under EB3 last August and it's still pending. She takes my PD and my PD will be current in May. I have an old letter from my employer when filing my I-485 last August but was wondering if a new letter from employer is needed or the old one would do.
Thanks in advance.
does not hurt to get a new one.

I am on h1-b visa and I have got an opportunity to have promotion in my current company. This new position is in the same department with the same company and needs almost same type of computer skill but with higher position title, more responsibility, and higher pay.
Question:
Do i need to file for new h1-b or transfer?
No transfer..may be a new LCA but not sure.

If you are on payroll, it means you are still employed by that company. Consider this as bench period. The company may not pay you the whole salary or part of it but you are still employed. This creates problem sometime. You should ask your employer to consider you as on unpaid leave or vacation. You dont have to leave the country. Few days are ok as long as you get a new job elsewhere and transfer your H1. I think 30 days is good. Your first and foremost goal is to get a job at any cost. That should happen before you are out of payroll of your current company. That means within 30 days.
Once you are out of 30 days and dont have a job, you are out of status. That means you are here illegally. Your counter starts. There is no guideline how long you can stay here like that but more than 180 days will definitely create problem for you in the long run.
Coming to H1 transfer, if you can transfer the job within 30 days, you are good. No harms done. Although sometime you get RFE to show the income for that period if W2 shows very low number. There should some sort of parity with LCA minimum wage in H1 with W2. But 30 days of non-payment should not be a big issue as long as you can prove you were employed at that time with your H1 petitioner.
If you are out of status, there is not much you can do about it except get a job soon enough. There are people who got H1 transfer without any issue. But there is a greater chance it might come up as RFE in H1 or later in GC.
If you are here more that 180 days, you are in serious trouble.
In any case, talk to a lawyer. People here in this forum are good for some basic general advice but a case like yours should be consulted with a professional.

Hello,
My Present H1B stamp is with company A and expires November 20 2007. Now I'm with company B and with this I have my petetion (H1B approval) which expires June 20 2008. Now I'm travelling to India for my marriage and coming back September 8. I'm not getting the new stamp this time. Will I have any problem during the immigration ??
Also with my present papers, my wife would be attending her visa Interview on Sep 4. Will there be any problem for her at the interview ???
Thanks in Advance
Just make sure you show you approved 797 petition from company B ( for whom you are working ) at POE to the immigration officer so he can enter the correct employer in their system and also gives u the correct I 94 which should expire on June 20 2008.
