I just wanted to confirm that "Document mailed to applicant" on I-131 means that the AP is approved. Can someone who saw a similar message please share their experience?
gxr
I had the same message on 10/31 and got my AP on 11/03 .It's for approval of AP

Hi Guys,
I used to work for company �a� which was a part of the bigger company �A�. There was another company �b� which was a part of the bigger company �B�.
Now both companies A and B made a joint venture (JV) and made company �c� joining company �a� and �b�.
Company A has 25% stake and company B has 75% stake in JV(Company "c"). The new formed company "c" has �new name�, all employees filed �new employment applications� and have �offered a new employment� with the new company �c�
Now my question is as this company �c� is totally �new�, can I convert my EB3 case to EB2 and use company �a� experience and file for EB2 with company �c�
Thanks,
Yes. As long as company C has a requirement for EB2 position.

A few months ago, BEC would respond to emails from the beneficiary regarding case status if the beneficiary mailed from the company email Id. They would send a screenshot of your case details. You will have to include your name, company name, state applied from, and DOB. I did that several months ago and got a reply from DBEC. I sent them an email with my details requesting them to send my case details so I could file for my 7th year H1 extension and got back a reply with screenshot after 2 or 3 days. You can give that a shot but no guarantees that BEC will respond as I heard they stopped doing that now. You can get the email Ids for 7th yr H1 ext email queries from the DOLs site. Good Luck.

After many, many years of wait ( to be exact totally 8 ) I was about to pack my belongings and move on with my life but in other place.
For certain reasons, which I will not discuss there I could not return to my home country.
Looking back and analyzing decisions made by the HR and the lawyers that the company hired to handle my case I feel something very uncomfortable. My advice to those who are at the very beginning of the immigration path is "Never under any circumstances trust the immigration lawyer that was hired or recommended by your employer. Remember your employer's interests are exactly opposite to yours."
Anyway yesterday I got that coveted �We sent you an approval notice..." e-mail.
Am I excited? Not very. Certainly I would have been if this happened many years ago.
Another advice that I want to give is do not take this green card business to close to your heart. There are much more important things in this life.
Good luck to you all.

Company B applied H1B tranfer petition for me two weeks back. Our documents went to USCIS, and we didnt received receipt notice yet. To my surprise the filing fee check is also not yet encashed.
Can anyone of you please let me know, if I can start working with company B now or wait until we get the receipt notice. What is the USCIS guidelines with the start date during H1B transfer.

Hi people, I am currently applying change of status from H1 to F1. Since my PERM got audit, and my h1 visa is going to expire in the end of January 2009, I need to change my status to F1 student visa in order to stay in the U.S legally. Now, I am trying to fill out the form I-539 by myself, and I got confused on:
part 4. additional information on 3g:"Have you, or any other person included in this application, been employed in the U.S. since last admitted or granted an extension or change of status?"
I don't know should I put "YES" or "NO", I have never done "i-539 for change of status" on my first F1/OPT to H1 visa....but I actually worked in the U.S...
Can anyone help me to answer that? thanks a lot!!!

I came across a posting today for a local contract position, which was a good match for my profile. But when I sent my resume in, the vendor said we cannot proceed because the end client asked for either citizens or GCs. I thought it was strange, because it is a contract requirement, not fulltime. This is the first time that I have encountered someone requiring a GC for a contract posiiton. Further, this is not a defence or state department kind of deal where you'd need citizens. I would understand if they said 'citizens only', but GC or citizen does strike me as unconventional.
Can someone please advise if this is allowed by law?

The House of Representatives on Saturday night passed a sweeping health care bill by a vote of 220-215. In the next few weeks, this bill will be analyzed and there will be various summaries online regarding this important piece of legislation. I would like to focus on the Immigration related matters in the Bill.
The Congressional Hispanic Caucus staunchly oppose including a provision that would bar undocumented workers from using their own money to buy health insurance policies available through the exchange.
The measure is already included in the Senate Finance Committee's version of the bill and is backed by the White House. Some conservative House Democrats have also indicated their support for the Senate language.
Several Hispanic Caucus members who discussed the issue with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Friday said they had received assurances the Senate language would not be included. Rep. Charlie Gonzalez, D-Texas, warned Thursday that several caucus members might try to block the House bill if it's changed to conform to the Senate measure. Pelosi's bill includes various requirements for immigrants to verify their citizenship before getting federal subsidies to buy health insurance. Conservatives, however, have called the requirements insufficient.
We will review the Bill and report on more important points that will be of interest to Immigrants.

As a July 2007 filer, you do have to pay the $305 filing fee. The $80 biometrics fee applies only to applicants for Reentry Permits and Refugee Travel Documents. It is not required for Advance Parole.
Individuals who file for AOS after July 2007 have to pay a $1010 filing fee for the I-485, but are not required to pay filing fees for subsequent AP's and EAD's. The following is an excerpt from the USCIS website:
"Please note that, if you file Form I-485 to adjust your status as a permanent resident on or after July 30, 2007, no additional fee is required to also file an application for employment authorization on Form I-765 and/or advance parole on Form I-131. You may file these forms concurrently. If you choose to file the I-765 and/or I-131 separately after July 30, 2007, you must also submit a copy of your I-797C, Notice of Action, receipt as evidence of the filing of an I-485. If you filed your Form I-485 prior to July 30, 2007, you must pay the fees associated with Forms I-765 and/or I-131 when you file."

I have two I -140's approved with one PD from end of 2005 and other end of 2006 both on EB2. I 485 is based based on 2nd one in 2006. So question is can I port 2005 pd to I 485 based on 2006?
Some where I heard that you can only port the PD when your 2nd is application stage and is pending. but here it is applied and already approved. Is it a good case for Porting PD or interfiling?
And by the way what is the difference between porting and interfiling?
Thanks
Porting and interfiling are pretty much same ...( some use interfiling to use cross changeability ) .
you should be able to use your old PD ...Just ask your attorney to contact USCIS with your old I 140. and New I 140. Lot if times USCIS automatically links your PD's . But again its USCIS?? Just follow up with your attorney , you can take a infopass and show them your documents ( some officers are Info pass know the issue and will help you )

Hi,
I am having my H1, and applied for renewal hopefully i will be getting it by this Dec '10.
Till Sep 2011 my H1 is valid, after that i am planning to go for extension as i filed my I-140 now.
Next year i am going to India i will get it stamped there for me also for my wife. But due to health reason for my wife, i am planning to stay in India and go for the treatment. For that i have to stay there and assist her fully, for the treatment. Not sure how long it will take.
My question is this, if my employer/client is OK with this, what is the maximum period i can stay in India without working in US.
Two scenarios here:
1. If the pay-stub is not generated, how long i can stay there?
2. If my employer agrees to pay the salary for those months, because i can also work in my company's offshore office, in that case how long i can stay there?
