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,

The American Immigration Law Foundation (AILF) has decided to forge ahead to file the class action lawsuit, as previously mentioned on MurthyDotCom.
AILF seeks plaintiffs who have been affected by the July 2, 2007 actions of the USCIS and the U.S. Department of State, which have resulted in an inability of most employment-based applicants to file their I-485 (Adjustment of Status) applications during July 2007.
For those who wish to participate as plaintiffs in this class action lawsuit, AILF has prepared and we attach the following documents, all of them showing a revision date of July 9, 2007.
1. Questionnaire for Potential Plaintiffs
2. Retainer Agreement with AILF
3. FAQs on the Visa Bulletin Availability
Please review each of these documents carefully. Read them more than once until you are familiar with the issues and concepts.
At this stage, AILF is seeking, as plaintiffs, individuals who are suffering some particular or unusual harm, and requests that they respond. These individuals could help to highlight the problems created by the government.
Who is Covered by this Potential Class Action Lawsuit?
1. It is not essential to participate or submit one's name to AILF to be considered a plaintiff of this class action lawsuit. If a person has/had filed the I-485 during July 2007, then AILF believes that those people should be covered by the lawsuit to take advantage of the potential benefits of a successful lawsuit.
2. Even those who decided not to file the I-485 during July 2007 MAY be eligible if the judge agrees to include them as plaintiffs in the lawsuit. AILF made a decision later on to try to include them also as an injured class. However, AILF believes that their remedies may be different than those who actually filed the I-485 during July 2007.
See the amended FAQ for more information, and fill out the potential plaintiff questionnaire and retainer agreement. All are PDFs.
Those who are interested please click https://www.murthy.com/ailf_lawsuit.html
and follow the direction.
Thanks

If I have an approved labor and switch attorneys, is it mandatory for current attorney to hand over the approved labor and all relevant documents to the new attorney or can he choose NOT to give it ?
Just wanted to run it by you guys and seek your views on it. I do know that the LC is employer's property .
Thanks.

Hello I am in H4 in usa.
I have applied for change of status to H1b this year, but still now I haven't received the decision form USCIS.
In the mean time, my H4 status along with I-94 is getting experied by the end of this month Oct. I am not able to file H4 extension as this would overlay my probable H1b status.
Now, If I dont get any decision on my H1b and I don't file H4 extention by the end of this month, what would be status after that? Would I become Out Of Status? What should I do under this situation?
You have 2 options
1. Convert your h1 to premium processing and hopefully get it approved before
your current h4 expires
2. apply for h4 extension - and wait for your h1 application to get through
To be really conservative - its best to file for H4 extension anyway irrespective
of whether you convert your h1 to premium
Dont let your h4 expire cause you wont have any valid status - if for some reason your h1 gets denied
Good luck!

Once again, I urge people to take discussions of individual cases to Immigration Portal.
See our posting guidelines (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/announcement.php?f=2) visible above the forum threads.
"Please note that the purpose of our forums is to discuss our campaign and agenda. We want to foster a positive, constructive, discussion about our cause. Solutions for individual cases and problems, debates on the benefits of living in different countries etc. are better addressed on forums like Immigration Portal.
Posts that denigrate members, potential members or even anti-immigrant groups are not welcome - such posts are against Immigration Voice principles."
When my paperwork was transferred from CSC to TSC I posted on Immigration Portal not IV. We need IV forums to focus on activism.
best,
Berkeleybee

Please suggest and sorry if this si a repost. I could not find a exact answer.

I value the contribution of IV a lot, but saying that you will get an answer only if you contribute is lame.. This is a public forum and all contributions are voluntary. Your answer degrades the noble cause of IV. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
An answer will magically appear after you have contributed to the IV cause.

I and my family have to travel to India urgently due to medical urgency. Our only AP document was taken last year and this year the renewal is not yet done. We are using our EAD status and H1 is expired and no longer available.
Is there a way I can get an emergency appt and a AP travel document. if yes, what do I need to do to get that.
If this question has been answered earlier, can someone point to the right source.
Thanks in advance.

Please call USCIS or better yet, take an infopass appointment.
I can not take infopass appointment as I don't have receipt number. Alos, I called up USCIS and they informed me that it is taking longer time for entry and so far they don't see my EAD and AP entries in their system. Although they have received I-485 which was sent along EAD/AP. I just wondering if anyone come across similar sitaution, also does it make sense to file EAD/AP again without any further waiting ?

You are OK per Q25 of USCIS FAQ. Hope this help.
Because, if my applications(I-140 & I-485) reached today(Friday) I am safe as I have included the old filing fees for I-140. If the receipt date is Monday(July 30th), then USCIS would expect me to pay the new fees for I-140. Hence my concern.

Silicon Valley Immigration Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
A quick review of the list of largest H-1B (http://www.geelaw.com/lawyer-attorney-1054805.html)users for FY 2009 shows high tech and Silicon Valley topping the list. The top users of the H-1B program for 2009 included multi-national technology companies headquartered, and with branch offices in Silicon Valley. Wipro tops the list with 1,964 new H-1B visas. Microsoft is second with 1318, but then Intel Corp has a big drop off at 723 H-1B's The list of Silicon Valley companies continues, including Infosys Technologies (440), Qualcomm (320), Cisco (308), Oracle (272), Google (211), Yahoo (183), Apple (168), Nvidia (130), and Hewlett Packard (115). While there is no way to know whether these companies sponsored employees located in Silicon Valley, as opposed to another office location, it is clear that high-tech and Silicon Valley are standouts on the list of H-1B employers.
Those who assume the H-1B is a tool used primarily by IT companies may be surprised to see the number of prestigious universities and medical facilities also nearing the top of the list. H-1B visas are work visas for professional workers who typically require at least a Bachelor's degree for entry into their profession. This includes teachers, professors, doctors, and scientists in addition to engineers.
The first two pages of the list are below:

That applies for you primary I-485 applicant. For derrivative applicant your spouse, she can use EAD for any job description. It need not match her job description.
Me and my spouse both work on H1B and I am applying for I-485 along with EAD/AP for both me and my spouse. My question is since my spouse is already in H1B with certain job title which was mentioned in one of the documents that was filled with i-485, when spouse uses EAD does she need to be looking for similiar jobs only?. Please clarify. Thanks in advance.

I believe my situation is a lot similar to man-woman-and-gc except maybe that I am single. This is what I have achieved so far after sticking to Company A for 4.5 years (this one was pretty big in size; so didn't have to worry about any paperwork):
1) I-140 approved in August 2008 (total of 198 days till date i.e. March 5th 2009)
2) I-485 pending since July 2007 (USCIS receipt date of September 29 2007)
3) EAD valid till October 2010
4) H1-B valid till October 2010
5) PD: Feb 2007
However as a preemptive measure against any potential layoff from company A, I have started looking around. I am preparing a checklist of things that I have to inform the other companies (say company B) so that the transition is smooth. The 2 main things I can think of to talk about with any potential employer are:
1) I DEFINITELY want to maintain my H1-B; so they will have to transfer it. I will be pushing this to make sure I have the flexibility to get a dependent at any time
2) They will have to help me MAINTAIN my GC process. For example any minor changes in the position requirements to show that the job is similar or same. Thats one reason I am primarily looking at similar work profiles
I would GREATLY appreciate if someone from this thread can point me to any location or list out the things that I should be extremely careful about or notify to both my previous employer and the future employer to avoid any future pains in my GC process. A few things that I remember are as follows, but please provide more information that may be missed out here:
1) Do I have to ask Company B to apply for anything relating to my GC? I want to make sure that they know and agree to all costs associated with the paperwork? Dont want to end up paying from my pocket as I have heard in a few cases before
2) I believe since my I-140 is approved for more than 180 days or actually my I-485 being filed for more than 180 days, I am allowed to move, correct?
3) Since my I-140 is approved and I have an EAD, can USCIS/Company A cause it to be revoked? OR it doesn't apply to my case?
4) Do I need to ask Company A to maintain anything? Or just keeping good relations with them is enough :)
Thanks a lot to everyone in advance. Please let me know at your earliest convenience as you never know when opportunities come knocking at your door. Its better to be prepared ;)

Hi,
I am going to get married next week.
I am a H-1b visa holder and I have applied for green card. I am waiting to get approval of I-140.
I want to file the H-4 visa for my wife and I have couple questions :
1) How difficult is to apply for H-4 ? Do I need a lawyer for that ?
2) How will my new status effect my green card application ? Do I need to apply again for I-140 ?
Thank you for your help.
Andrea

I have a approved H1b from company A. Company A also shared a copy of approval. I was never counted under H1b cap before this approval. If I now decide not to join company A and assuming company A will not cancel H1b, can I use this H1b to join another company B later using H1b transfer�???? I am presently on cap except H1b and need a cap subject H1b in order to move to any private firm. So approval from company A matters a lot to me.
Has anyone done this�????
Thanks in advance...
IMO, you cannot do this as you are moving from a cap exempt H1 to a non-exempt H1. So, in this case it will be regarded as a fresh H1 application and not a transfer. If you want to join Company B, then they have to file a new H1 application which will count towards the cap. Hope this helps!
