My wife came to USA in 2002 on H4.She changed from H4 to H1 in 2004 Nov.Since then she worked continuously till now (Jan 2009).Now she's planning to take a break and change back to H4.If she wants to work again sometime in future maybe after a couple of years will she come under quota?Does she have to apply for a new H1 or can she work the remaining 2 yrs left on her H1?We missed the bus and could not apply for 485 in July.
Thanks to any suggestions.
>> Now she's planning to take a break and change back to H4.
File for change of status to H4.
>> If she wants to work again sometime in future maybe after a couple of years will she come under quota?
Since she got H1 status first time in Nov 2004, she can have H1 transfer without quota only until Nov 2010. After that her H4-to-H1 will be subject to cap.

What does this mean
"As a result, average processing times for certain application types may become longer. In particular, naturalization applications filed after June 1, 2007 may take approximately 16 - 18 months to process."
What are the chances for the people who applied on July 1 ?

Wow, very interesting. Though I might experiment with cropping (first try would be cutting off the bottom, including the one bird down there, to make it more panoramic and [hopefully] make the horizon less centered), there's not really anything that I'd change about this photo. Good work, IMHO. :)

A group of volunteers from OneAmerica (a local pro-immigrant non-profit associated with the Reform Immigration for America Campaign) and I visited the offices of Senators Murray and Cantwell (both D-WA) in the last week. We met with their outreach directors for our county and presented them with almost 1000 signatures of Microsoft employees impacted by retrogression. We also gave them a presentation similar to the one IV gave back in 2006-2007.
They were frank with us, both senators are our allies but they are not sure if they will tackle immigration, financial reform or energy/climate change reform before the Nov. elections. However, they said they will try to keep us in the loop and give our docs to the senators. We will not let up and will keep pinging them for action.
They thanked us for showing up and providing some great personal stories to back up our petitions. They also asked us to keep in touch in case they need compelling stories to help promote all aspects of CIR.
Let's keep visiting lawmakers and help them commit to CIR this year!

Thanks. So how can I find out more about what exactly got updated? On the USICS site, it shows that my AOS was updated in Dec 2007, but nowhere does it report what kind of update it was. Any thoughts?

The Department of State has published a pamphlet educating nonimmigrant visa holders on their rights. The pamphlet covers the visa process, important documents, workplace and employee rights, human trafficking, and how to file a complaint. This is a very useful document, not just for immigrants. See here (http://www.travel.state.gov/pdf/Pamphlet-Order.pdf) to download.

There is one way to find out if CIR is any good for EB - by looking at the bill when it is proposed bill and amendments. It will be suicidal to assume that CIR is somehow bad for us, and incriminate any effort for CIR. My point earlier was not that CIR is bad for EB, but about the actual reason for Sen. Reid's recent comments, just to set the expectations straight.

Dear all,
I just realized that my lawyer forgot to mention A# in my 485 application. I have an approved I140 and the approval notice does have A# mentioned on it.
Does any one in this forum know if I am in trouble? I have sent a copy of my I-140 approval notice in my application though.
Any thoughts/experience?
Regards,

not necessarily true - for example if you get a B1 or B2 that's valid for 10 years - most likely it will exceed the validity of your passport. in that case when you renew your passport , in order to keepo using the Visa - you need to carry both the old and the new passports. H1B is the same, although for shorter duration (usually 3 years) so the issue does not come up as often. bbut of the visa is unexpired, and the passport is expired you would carry both passports to come in on the visa.
hope that helps.

Hello All,
If my priority date is current as of November bulletin, do I have time
until 30th November to mail the I-485 application?
Or does the DOS need to have received the application on or before 30th November?
And if I am in California, where does the I-485 application physically go?
[Its a long story why I didn't when the doors were open in July-Aug]
Thanks!

Hello,
I spoke to my lawyer today and she made it very clear that it is ILLEGAL to file more than one I-485 for one applicant (from 2 diff companies). USCIS will immediately ask you to make a choice.
THought I should share this information
yes, thats because when filing I-485 you are 'promising' to join that company when you get your GC. How can you promise that to two companies at the same time.
However could you ask about being primary applicant on one petition and secondary on another (cases where both spouses are working, they can file two AOS and if either spouse decides to stop working for some reason the other application continues, the first can be withdrawn). This one is a grey area. Not illegal, but apparently at some point USCIS will ask you to pick one of the two. In this current mess where some companies/lawyers are promising to file, but may not do so in the end, better to give both choices a good shot, and hope atleast one gets through.
