Hi ,
my experience with O visa is that paperwork, presentation, previous track record of the lawyer with USCIS is critical
so in this case, absorbing the 5000 cost difference may be a good idea
Of course you can always ask your employer if they are willing to take that hit but as you know you have a 50 % chance there at the best
So decision is yours

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.

Do you mean RFE (request for Evidence) by "Query on H-1 Transfer " ? This happens all the time with any benefit application. You need to explain what that query is? If company C will respond to it by providing the evidence USCIS wants, things will take care of themselves.
Yes can still go ahead and transfer to D only if you are sure the query will be addressed by company C and the approval for H1-B transfer is 100% certain. Normally it may be a good idea to wait for the approval.

It seems as if the Big B has not given up on this issue just yet. He is making it a point to mention it atleast once each week, despite what other international developments are going on. I think he will be putting the full court press on the house republicans, it will be interesting to see whether he gets them to accept some compromise.
---------
Republican Congress("C") is in no mood to play ball with Bush.
In fact it is a three way fight, with Senate not passing the "Minimum wage/ Estate tax bill," Congress is in no mood to bargain with Senate either.
Let us think about our strategy for a Democrat controlled Congress in February 2007.

Hello All,
Need you guys expert advise on a problem that I have just found.
I was on L1 since 2007 and in 2008 got my H1B visa done. Since I was in the US during september and october 2008, I changed my company who held my H1B as of 1st October,2008. I dont have an H1B stamp on my passport as I have not been out of the US.
It was only yesterday that I realised I had a I-797B approval notice, which from what I read yesterday, means that I have a petition approved but without I-94.
Now my L1 I-94 on my passport is valid till November 2010.
Need your help to understand if I have an issue here for the fact that I have worked with my employer who holds my H1B for the past 9 months.
If so what are the challenges that I have and the solutions for them.
Also has anyone been in the same situation.
Would greatly appretiate your help in this.

Congratulations - you have 90 days after it expires to renew it. Since you got your GC within 60 days, there is nothing to worry about. You must however talk to your HR with a copy of ur GC and update the I-9. But that is just for records and should there be an audit, you should be all set.

I already had my meeting for permanent residency and it remains pending until I submit to them a more detailed version (the long form) of my birth certificate. They did have my original but it was not the one they wanted and I was unaware of this until the end of my meeting. I have been given a deadline and although I have applied for the certificate that the US immigration wants, it has not yet been delivered. The hold up has not been with me but with the government offices that process the certificates so there has been nothing I could do. The deadline is fast approaching - I'm concerned that they will toss out my whole claim (as was indicated on the notification they gave me) if I don't get it to them on time. Will they allow me and extension on the time? I am not working through a lawyer. Thank you.

After Employment Green Card wait 5 years.
After Family Green Card wait 3 years only
Why?
Why Family Green Card less wait time?
not true.
And it is 3 years for spouses starts after 2 years of conditional residence
Again, incorrect.
It is is 5 years for all Family based except marriage to US Citizen (where it is 3 years).
It is NOT 3 years after conditional residence - It is a total of 3 years.
Go check USCIS publication M-476 to enlighten yourselves.

I have valid H-1 visa to re-enter US. My visa is valid till Dec 2011. I already got that stamped when i went to india last year.
So I shouldn't run into any problems at the port of entry, even if my AP gets approved while I am out of the country, right? Thanks so much for taking time to answer.
yeah, you should have no problems. Take a copy of your I-485 papers with you too. But do not show unless they ask. You will exit and re-enter in H1 status.

Is there any problem if your passport is expired while on H1 visa?
Do we need to get the passport renewed before it is expiring?
Just get it renewed while you are in US.
Its a one day affair to get your passport renewed(in person). You submit all your docs in the morning and pick it up in the evening.

My H1-B is valid from September 14 2006 to September 14 2007.I got laid off recently; my LC is pending Dallas Backlog center last 3 years, I got new job and submitted my last pay stub December 15 2006 to my new Lawyer with my ex lawyer contact address. I do not know whether there will be any hassle in USCIS for my H1-B 8th year extension approval? My new lawyer is yet to file my premium H1B extension. I am very anxious regarding the uncertainty of extension.

AILA Leadership Has Just Posted the Following:
Just when we thought it was safe to go back in the immigration waters again. Transparency, we were promised it. One year into the new administration, however, it remains an elusive concept. That is it did, until yesterday. Yesterday, I saw a poster at the CIS that revealed exactly how the agency views immigration lawyers. It was a poster of small fish in the water being stalked by a large shark. I walked past it and literally did a comic book like double take.
Underneath in comparatively small letters there is a caption that warns people to protect themselves against those who are not authorized to help them. There was no indication or explanation, however, of what that could mean, other than the picture of giant shark.
The subliminal message was both clear and offensive. I dare the agency to say I am reading too much into it. Google �metaphors and similes.� Nine times out of ten the definition includes a lawyer shark comparison/example. Couple this with the daily reports we receive where our clients are told �why do you have a lawyer, your lawyer knows nothing.�
Contrary to the government�s implication, however, immigration lawyers are not predatory. The bulk of immigration lawyers I know, and I know a lot of them, literally agonize over the fates of their clients. They spend hours upon hours trying to assist them through a labyrinth of inconsistent rules, regulations (when we actually get them) and guidance.
AILA works hard to combat immigration fraud and the unauthorized practice of law. It also does all it can to educate 15,000 immigration lawyers about both the law and ethics.
I agree that immigrants need to be wary of perpetrators of immigration fraud. The government, however, should warn of the true predators - those practicing law without a license. Its posters should identify who those individuals are and provide warnings or information calculated to educate about unscrupulous practices. Simply, a broad statement below an icon typically used to vilify attorneys does nothing of the sort.
I am not sure how to depict the government�s purported message in its elaborate seascape. Perhaps a tidal wave depicting millions being thrown back indiscriminately on foreign shores or a lamprey latched onto an unsuspecting gentle manatee. I need to think about it. I take metaphors seriously as they �are dangerous and are not to be trifled with.� Please remove the posters immediately.

1. YES
2. Your employer not only should not revoke your I140 but should not be using the LC for someone else. If he chooses use it for some one else the originla beneficiary will no longer get its benefits.
3. The condition for three years extension is you are not able to get to I485 because of retrogression so they will give you three years,
It is possible with a different employer only if the new LC and I140 is approved and you are waiting to file I485.
This is what I know, but I am not an attorney so better to talk to your (new) company attorney before making the move.

interfile
08-19 04:07 PM
Is it possible to convert or interfile an existing EB based I-485 application to FB based I-485?
I have pending I-485 through an approved I-140 (EB). PD is not current. I recently got married and my spouse is a US Citizen. We are considering pursueing FB application. Reading through the forums I gather that my spouse has to file I-130 and I file for I-485. My question is regarding I-485.
If I have to file for a new I-485, what happens to the existing one? Do I have to get new medical exam? Can I use existing AP, EAD or can I use EAD/AP that I currently have from my EB based application?
If an interfiling is possible, when should this be done - concurrently along with I-130 filing or we have to wait till I-130 is approved? Also what is the procedure for "interfiling"?
Which option is better?

skarthy: Upgrade your H1 transfer to premium processing, get the transfer approved. Re-enter the country by showing your wife's old H1 stamping, get a new I-94 based on new approved H1 petition at POE. This is a easy route; If I were you, I will do this.
