Revert back to my previous post, don't know why you're double posting a thread.

It looks like it has been transferred to NSC. Probably because your AOS is filed there, but more likely because you're from a region administered by NSC. Could you please confirm if that's the case. 450+ days is just ridiculous, but hope this change is one in the right direction.
Hi Guys,
I filed my EB3 I-140 to TSC in June 2006 and it is still pending (yes..really more than 450 days and counting...) Then in July 2007, I filed my AOS with NSC. Today, I got an email from CRIS stating that
Application Type: I140 , IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR ALIEN WORKER
Current Status: This case has been sent to another office for processing.
On September 4, 2007, we transferred this I140 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR ALIEN WORKER to our LINCOLN, NE location for processing and sent you a notice explaining this action. Please follow any instructions on this notice. You will be notified by mail when a decision is made, or if the office needs something from you.
It is transferred to NSC because my AOS is filed with NSC? Have any one had this status change in the past? After this, how long did it tak to get your I-140 approved?
I am just curious because can I feel happy that atleast some progress? As you know, I am waiting for my I-140 for more than a year...

I moved to a new company and yet to receive my I-797 approved from INS. My old company visa is valid till May 2010. If they have not revoked it can i still travel out of country and come back?
You should not return showing just the old visa and approval notice for Company A. That would be misrepresenting to CBP that you were still working for Co. A. You need to show the receipt for Co. B's filing to show that you are working for them using portability (I assume you are)

I got laid off recently.
Now got job with 2 companies. 1 small and 1 big. 3 questions:
(1) Should I select based on my salary? Big company offers more salary.
(2) I have to now start Greencard again. So should I choose big company or small ? Both said they will consider sponsoring if performance is good.
(3) If I transfer H1B Is Big company likely to get RFE or small?

DS 157 is required based on age of the applicant ... your dad may not need but your mom need it ... pls check the vfs site for age range for DS 157 ...
hope this helps
HI,
I recently booked an appointment for visiting visa for my parents through vfs, during the process , I first entered my Dad's details and then his ds 156, then It asked if I wanted to add additional family members, then I entered my Mom's details and her ds 156 . After that it asked for my Mom's ds 157 and never showed my Dad's ds 157.
So the final list of documents it generated was :
Dad's ds 156, Mom's ds 156,157 , interview letter.
Is this correct, does my dad need ds 157 and interview letter or is 1 ds 157 and interview letter enough ?
Thank you for your time.

Is tourist visa same as business visa for Canada? Live in the US, i-485 pending with Valid EAD and have valid tourist visa. I need to visit one of my company's client for a few days. DO i need a separate visa or should tourist visa do? What do i say at the border crossing?
Sorry if this is not the right forum.
Thanks!
It is a B-1/B2 visa ...depending on the purpose at Port of Entry on the I94 officer will give
B1 or B2 (in your case B1)
But some you have GC pending I485...you are a potential immigrant so you may not get b1/B2....but i think you can enter on EAD/AP

:p Yes....,
You can definitely change your Employer and continue working H1. You can even port your I140 Priority date to your new GC process. Just you need to have Receipt Number of your I-140. You don't even need to have I140 Approval notice.
Its better to take an advise from Reputed Immigration Attorney. They will do everything in your favour.

I am using the regular link that is on the website. The below is the link.
The DS-160 is located at http://ceac.state.gov/genniv/
can anyone please confirm that we can fill the DS160 without the photograph? The application allowed me to fill in the app without photograph. Moreover I have booked an appointment for my wife's visa stamping.

I & My wife are working on H1-B visas currently. We two simulataneously started our Greencard process with our employers.
Both of us have a priority date of Sept 2006 & our EB category is Eb2. Both our labors got approved & applied for I-140s. My wife's I-140 got approved recently (from TSC) while Mine is still pending with NSC (Nebraska dates are behind).
A couple of months back, my current employer offered me a pre-aproved EB3 labor (from April 2004) & asked me to apply for I-140 (Substitute). He told me that once approved, I can port this EB3 2004 priority date onto my Eb2 I140. I applied for the same in premium processing, subsequently got an ability-to-Pay RFE and employer is working on providing audited financial statements from 2004.
Overall, we have 3 I-140s between me (2 pending) & my wife (1 Approved). Now that everything is current which one should we pick for applying I-485....This has become a big puzzle for us.
Here below is a snapshot of our status:
Me - EB2 (Sept 2006) - I-140 Pending
- EB3 (Apr 2004) - I-140 Pending (got RFE)
My wife - EB2 (Sept 2006) - I-140 Approved
Here are the options we could think of -
I know, the safest way is to apply I-485 to my wife's approved I-140. But with the DHS's forecast that retrogression is going to be back anytime around Spetember of this year, I am not sure if applying 485 based on a year 2006's date is any useful!! (We get EAD but we may be struck for years to get the green cards).
Is there an option for both of us to apply for I-485s (I will be dependent on my wife's application & my wife would be dependent on my application). If possible, this option gives us a safety net & also helps us in picking up the best. I know at some point, we have to choose between either of the I-485s but hopefully in a couple of months, we get clarity when both my I-140s are approved.
Or is it possible for me to apply for AOS on my pending EB2 2006 I-140 and then once my other Eb3 I-140 is also approved, Can I port the PDs while my I-485 is pending??
In essence, I am trying to find out a way to take advantage of 2004 Priority date I have (assuming Eb3 I-140 is approved).
Could you please help out, if you have any ideas!!

You are not supposed to work on EAD until unless it�s renewed that is sure, you can work on H1B for your H1B employer if H1B is not revoked.
I suggest a attorneys advice on H1B once.

Hi, I wanted to know if it is possible for me to maintain my H1 status (and my wife's H4) status while re-entering the US using I-131 Advance Parole document without a valid H1 visa stamp in my passport.
Here's my situation: -
1. I have been on H1 status for the past 6+ years.
2. My current employer filed for an H1 renewal/extension petition for years 7-9 which has been approved and we have the approval notice.
3. My wife's H4 renewal petition has also been approved.
4. We both have filed for I-485 Adjustment of Status which is pending with USCIS due to retrogression.
5. Our H1 & H4 visa stamps in the passport expired in September of 2009.
6. We are planning to leave the US for about a month in Nov-Dec and do have valid I-131 documents for purposes of re-entering.
At the port of entry, can we show our H1/H4 approval notices to the IO and request that he stamp our new I-94s for a H1/H4 status?
Thanks
Showing H1/H4 notice will lead to confusion and @POE, officer will not issue I-94 per H1/H4 notices. Rather, you show your AP and re-enter the country, and your I-94 will be issued as Parolee w/ the validity of 1 year. You can still work for your H1B employer in H1 status and continue to renew when it expires. My 2 cents.

Foreign nationals may obtain their green cards by marriage through a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident (LPR). If the marriage is less than two years old at the time residence is granted, the foreign national will receive conditional resident status. The actual conditional residence card will have a two year validity date. Individuals who obtained their resident status based on a marriage less than two years are required to file Form I-751 Petition to Remove Conditions 90 days prior to the expiration date on the conditional residence card. Once the conditions are removed, the conditional resident status becomes permanent.
The petition to remove conditions should be accompanied with evidence establishing the validity of the marriage since being granted conditional resident status. Supporting documentation of a valid marriage may include:
· Birth certificates of children,
· a copy of the rent/apartment lease,
· mortgage payments,
· joint filing of tax returns,
· utility bills evidencing both names,
· copies of pictures,
· itineraries or boarding passes,
· insurance coverage listing both names,
· joint bank accounts,
· driver’s licenses evidencing both names,
· letters from family regarding knowledge of the marriage (including envelopes with postmarks),
· receipts for items purchased together (ie: furniture),
· cards written to both for a holiday, birthday, anniversary.
Other documents accompanying the Form I-751 include:
· A copy of the conditional residence card,
· Two passport style photos for the applicant,
· A certified copy of any arrest record and disposition of the case (for individuals who have been arrested or detained),
· A money order payable to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security in the amount of $545 for filing fees.
Kraft & Associates will answer your questions on conditional resident status and permanent residence. Call us at 214-999-9999.

As soon as your wife used EAD, her H4 status was gone.
For you it would still be safe to continue working on H1.
Your advantages are:
1) Having dual status (H1B and AOS) is better than one.
2) You do not have to worry about EADs for yourself.
Thanks for your info, coopheal

A friend's H1B transfer from company A to company B was denied. Since his H1B with company A is still valid and is going to expire in 3 months, he can still go back to work for company A. However, if he chooses not to work for company A and tries to find a third employer to do another transfer, is he considered out of status for these three months?
Do you know as to why it got denied ?
