My situation is a little different in that I received my GC on Apr 22nd and my company let me go on May 1st. Will this cause me issues in the future?

My PD is 08/04/06, and my AP is expiring on June 2nd, I probably will have to travel sometimes June end. I am in a fix if I should go ahead and apply for Ap now. My PD will be current begining June 1st. I heard it may take 1 week to 60 days to get GC after your date becomes current, Do you guys think it's good idea to just apply for AP just in case?
Thanks
Thanks

I had applied for my H1B extn and got an RFE. Lawyers replied to it and its almost 7 weeks now, haven't got any reply.
Is this a usual timeframe? how long will it usually take for USCIS to take any action on the RFE's after the reply was sent with all appropriate documents?
Hi Raj Kumar,
I am completing my 9 years on H1B and my H1B is expiring. I have applied for the H1B extenstion since my I485 is still pending. What exactly does the RFE says....Can you please provide some details...it will be helpful....

Hi Guys,
I am working with company A on H1B, currently on bench (no pay, all vacation used up) and no pay stub. I got an from offer from Company B and have started the H1 transfer process. I would like to know how soon can I join company B. My friend says I can join as soon as USCIS receives the H1B application i.e. as soon as the fedex delivery reciept becomes available I can join the company B.
The lawyer from company B says I need to wait till a reciept notice is received from USCIS.
Who is right? I want to believe the lawyer for obvious reasons (she is a lawyer) but my friend did the similar thing, he joined the day his app was received at USCIS and he was adviced so by his company's lawyer.
A rationale to join on the same day is that when the H1 is approved it will have the start date same as the day USCIS received the app (as that is the requested start date of transfer).
I'd appreciate your inputs.
Thanks

Thanks for the quick response.
I couldnt find the form on the uscis website, which generally lists supplemental forms next to the main ones. Couldnt even find a link to this, so wasnt sure if my doc was doing the right thing or following some old procedure.
One more question : I-693 has 4 copies (one for uscis, one for self, one for doc etc). Does it matter which copy goes to uscis (since they are basically the same, except for the text in the bottom which denotes the copy).
Because I think my doc put his copy in the sealed envelope, and gave me a photocopy of that.
Should I go back and have him redo the form (he has bad handwriting too, like most doctors)?

Visual Studio 2005 is the IDE - an application that allows you to create other applications. Silverlight is a target runtime much like WinForms, WPF, etc. You can use VS 2005 - albeit a bit hackishly - to create projects that allow you to create outputs for all three.
Based on your code, is this a ASP.net application?

Please advice me what to do i want to avoid attorney.
Hi
How did you come to know that your EAD and AP were rejected? When you dont have the receipt #? In my situation my stupid attorney didnt include the I-140 receipt number dont know if they will accept the rest of the application, my I-140 has been approved.

Excellent location - Central CT - people from all over CT can make it. Offcourse New Jersey and New York, everyone can make it - just 70 miles from the City.
Everyone from Tri State - don't miss this chance. This will be big.
It is 45 min either direction from Stamford and Hartford - smart thinking 'tnite' thanks for this.

The visa officer has found out that they share the same adress and questioned me what is the point of H1B transfer when they share the same adress and both the companies are merged and he refused my h1b visa..
My employer sugessted me to attend again the interview at the newdelhi consulate ..he has provided me the business license ,office land purchase documents and companies merging document...which i have submited to newdelhi consulate..
after 3 months the new delhi consulate sends me a visa denial letter
stating that
we are not able to issue you a visa because:
your petitioner doesnot either be able to provide qualified employment in USA
I129 petition filed on your behlaf has been submitted to USCIS...
My original I797 was returned to me at the time of interview
my question:
Can I apply for a H1B transfer and attend interview again for stamping as I have original I 797???

Hi,
Can a H4 visa holder apply for the Praxis test series and then apply for State Teacher Certification. I know on H4 we can't work but is it possible , just getting the Teacher Certification.
If it's not possible on H4 then I have an option to convert H4 to L2 (as my husband will change his status from H1 to L1) and get EAD.Can after that can I get the Teacher Certification from PA ?
I checked on PA State Teacher Certification requirement for Foreign Educated Teachers and there is one point like this.
- is a citizen of the United States or holds an resident alien (green card) visa
Will EAD/H4 considered as Resident Alien Visa ?
Or without Green Card it's not possible to get this Certificate ?
Please help me.
Thanks

Hi,
I am unable to determine if the 180 day timeline is calculated from RD or ND? There are different opinions here in this forum and no clear answer. Is there a law text that defines this clearly...does anybody know?
yea...I did search this and some of the other forums :confused:

mergers and acquisitions come under successor of interest and GC process is usually status quo. at yous stage, M&A wouldnt need any inputs from ur side. Confirm with attorney.
Ofcourse you can also join company C, using AC21 with all the caveats that apply.

All,
I am thinking of initiating a congressman/senator inquiry for my I-485 since my PD is current. I was wondering if anyone communicated with MA senators and/or congressman for this purpose and what their experience was. Also if anyone can share the format for the letter that you write to the senator.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
You can not (lawfully) re-enter on an H1B, as you're out of status. If you get caught lying at the border, you will be turned back and will likely be permanently barred from entering the U.S. You'll want to re-enter on an H4 visa - you dont need an H4 petition, although obviously you'll need to qualify for the H4, so be prepared to document your spouse's H1 approval and valid status.
Are you stating that you were laid off (thus overstaying), or that you were benched without pay (meaning your employer should have been paying you)? With more than 90 days out-of-status, you may have triggered a period of ineligibility to re-enter the U.S.
Given the apparent overstay issue, I suggest consulting an immigration lawyer.
Hope you find these information valuable.

Hi,
I am working under H1B visa and got married December last year. My wife applied for her H4 visa this month and when she got to the embassy for the interview, the consul checked and commented on the font size of her address in our marriage certificate. She said it was smaller than my address (well, she got a longer address before we got married, maybe that is why the census made it smaller) and said to my wife that it needs verification. The embassy then took all documents (her passport, our original marriage cert, etc.) and said they will call her when she needs to return for interview again.
Has anyone of you experience this? If so, any ideas how long it takes for them to call? BTW I'm Filipino. Thank you guys and God bless
I guess you should be fine once they gets satisfied with cross checking.
By the way can you please tell me in short the procedure you followed to have your wife attend H4 visa interview.
Thanks!
