H1 Transfer and Extention
Posted Today at 04:06 PM by eucalyptus.mp
I am working in US from Feb 2007 to till date. I was on H1-B visa This H1-B petition is valid till 30 sep,2009. I am currently on project which ends on 31 March 2009 . Before that I want to change my employer .
Some ppl suggested me Transfer H1 with extention immediately. Some said that stay with current employer have extention and then transfer . Is there any problem now a days for H1 Transfers ?
Please give me your valuable suggestions.
Thanks...
For your new employer to be able to file for H1, you need all your documentation current. You can apply for a new H1 through your new employer using Premium processing and its not subject to 2009 quota. You can start working on your new project with the employer as soon as you get the receipt. You might get an RFE for H1 transfer as to the availability of the position and if that position is in a TARP funded company or industry then its going to be a pretty difficult task to get approval for ur H1.
Ideally stay with your current employer and see if you can work it out so that you get a new project through your employer only.
good luck

We can all hope for the best, Is this an attempt by some vested interests to kill the H1b altogether and kick out all H1bs slowly?

Changing from L1 to H1 has nothing to do with your GC process.
Since you have L1 - you have most probably worked outside the US for at least 1 year with your employer. If this 1-year stint was at a managerial capacity (5-6 people reported to you at least, and you are at least 2-3 positions removed from the entry level) and was within the last 3 years - then you can apply in EB1 category.
I changed from L1-H1 as well. I was not able to apply in EB1 since my 1-year stint was outside the 3 year window.
Whether you can apply in EB1 or not has no connection with whether you are on L1, H1 or even outside the country. The EB1 requirements are similar to L1requirements (in fact identical to L1A requirements) - and that is why you see lots of L1A guys getting their GC early. There is a definite correlation - but no causation.

clarify21: You can not have two status (ead & h1b) at the same time. Either your are on H1B or EAD (Pending AOS). If you would like to maintain the H1B status, for the part time job, you will have to ask your part time employer to do the new H1B; by having two H1Bs you can work for two employers the same time. By doing this, H1B and EAD both are valid. The moment you use EAD, your H1B status is invalid. Have a talk with your attorney. Hope this helps.

Hi everyone!
On May 29, 2009, I filed a Form I-485 to get my wife's (from Japan) green-card. On August 11, 2009 it was denied because I had "failed to submit all tax documentation". On August 25, 2009 I filed a Form I-290B which is a motion to reopen and reconsider my case. I included all the additional tax information which they asked for so that I my I-485 would be complete. Finally, today March 6, 2010 I received a notice in the mail saying that my I-290B Form was denied simply because accidentally signed one area of the form where my wife should have signed. What am I supposed to do from here? I had a lot of people recommend that I contact my Commissioner... does he have any power to help me with that? Any help would be appreciated!!

We are very busy these days trying to beat the H1B (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) rush. While we fell that visas will not run out on April 1, 2010, clients are anxious to get their cases out the door. We promise to deliver.
Here are some tips that may help our last minute filers. The issue today is a degree that has not yet been awarded. In the past, the USCIS has approved H-1B petitions (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html)for aliens seeking one of the 20,000 H-1B visas available to aliens who have earned master�s or higher degrees from U.S. institutions of higher education, where the alien has completed all requirements for the degree, and hence, has �earned� the degree, but the degree has not been conferred.
There is no reason to believe that USCIS will not continue that practice, so long as there is evidence that the alien has completed all requirements from an official at the educational institution qualified to provide that information. In the past, satisfactory evidence often was in the form of a letter from an official such as a Dean, Registrar, or department head, stating that all requirements have been satisfied and that the alien is simply waiting for the ceremonial conferral of the degree.
Be wary of letters prepared by unauthorized employees at the school stating that the student has completed all requirements toward a master�s degree, when in fact there are still examinations or papers to complete. USCIS is likely to question a letter that comes from a lower-level employee of the university. Be mindful also that use of such documentation when the student has not completed the program may be considered fraud. Also, use of such a document may result in the loss of the client�s chance at a slot in the U.S. master�s graduate quota since the petition likely would be denied on the basis of ineligibility at the time of filing.
More tips in later posts, good luck filing the H1's tomorrow.

If finance is not an issue with u or co. then renew it as a fall back. U'll never know that those guys in USCIS will do on your papers. So it is better to be safer than safe =)

The MS Office and Apple stamps had some modification done to them. Correct me if I am wrong, but it just seems as though you pasted the band's logo into a black background.
I'll add the first, second, fourth, and fifth logos to the site though :)

How do you find the WB on the D2H? Are you preset or using some other method?
I have been using a D1 until two months ago, when my friend drop it into the Central Park Lake when powered on. It's now a slam dunk. Currently I am looking for a new DSLR, and seriously considering switching to Canon, . . .
