    hi prince,
    regarding ur post, there is a correction.

    holding an Approval notice alone is NOT a valid reason to bypass the transit visa in germany.

    holding a valid visa or Adv parole is good . but not just an appr notice.


    thanks

    The text which I have posted on this forum is directly out of the email I received from the German Embassy helpline.

    Hi Morchu,

    Thanks for you reply.

    Yes you replied to my question in other Thread... but you thought I did't exhausted my 6 years...


    Yes Please. File an h1 extension NOW. (Premium or not premium doesn't matter much, since you are in H1 status all the time, with proper pay-stubs and all.)
    But having an H1 is especially safe in this particular situation.
    I assume you have not exhausted your 6 year limit.

    But Iam already in 7th year. Based on my situation I want to make sure whether Iam eligible or not for applying one more H1 while other (H1 appeal is pending). So I posted my request here too.

    Thanks again Morchu for your responses.

    I was informed that without I-94 card she cannot be added to my insrurance.

    Can anyone suggest me some good insurance I can take online/india for this kind of situation...???

    Thanks

    Did you even talk to your employer yet? They will ask for marriage certificate and nothing else. Who informed you about I-94? one of your friends/forum members? Are they giving insurance to you.

    Go talk to employer/HR/Insurance agent.

    If she gets her H1 visa stamped while returning and then uses that to re-enter the country then even if the I-485 gets rejected then she can continue on her H1 visa and will not be Out of Status. That is a good strategy to maintain status with pending I-485.

    My employer applied for LCA to extend my H1 and it was denied and they told me that prevailing wage determination with NPWHC is required to apply for LCA since jan 2010. Is this true?
    If anyone has gone through this please respond. Thanks.

    For my recent H1B extention for 7th year extention, I have come across strange situation.
    My old H1B was valid till 5th Feb 2007. Extention was applied in Jan 2007 with approved I-140. Recently I have received approved H1B extention with new I-94, but it states validity is from 22 March 2007 to 5th Feb 2010.

    I thought the extention should have been from 6th Feb 2007 to 5th Feb 2010.

    what should be infered from above ? Does it mean that I was out of ststus fron 6th Feb 2007 till 21st March 2007.

    I would appereciate any input on this.
    If this makes me out of status , is there a way to fix this by contacting USCIS again ?

    Thanks
    Saurav

    I don't think you were out of status as you filed before your previous H1 expires.

    bbct & vin13,

    Thanks for all your feedback.

    I explored civil surgeon in India option. Didnt work out. Panel physicians in India do medicals for FB AOS. Civil surgeons in US do medicals for EB AOS.
    It can not be interchanged since the forms and procedures are different.

    Everyone I asked say gambling against USCIS is like playing with fire. I don't want to jeopardize my wife's pending I-485.

    We should have done her TB test before trip. That is a mistake I did and now paying a price. Another Lesson learned!

    -GCisaDawg


    Sorry looks like it didnt work out for you..

    yes, u need to inform them of every small move u make, all ur life. this holds true even after ur us citizenship is approved.

    Friends, I would like to know if I change job after I-140 & I-485 approval, do I still need to notify USCIS about AC-21. Also, will it require my new employer to provide a letter of job duties to confirm that the new job is either same or similar to the old one.

    Thanks

    From what you say do you mean your wife now has no current visa status?
    If so she has to have advanced parole in hand to travel. She is effectively now on her EAD and AOS combined and neither of these bestows travel privileges.

    If however, as other responders have assumed, that your wife is on an H4 now as your dependent then she can go for visa stamping and re enter the US on that visa

    Yes she not current visa status :-( Thats why I am worried about her travel plan.

    Interview Transcript: Condoleezza Rice
    Topics:Iran | Iraq War | Iraq | China | Politics & GovernmentBy CNBC.com | 06 Jul 2007 | 05:47 PM ET Font size:

    Dr. RICE: I think there's a reason for that, Maria, and of course, it has to do with the great military power of the United States, the great economic power of the United States, an economy that is the envy of every economy in the world. But it also has to do with the American example. People look to America and they see a place that is multiethnic in character, where you can be a German-American from a couple of--a century ago, or you can be Mexican-American, you can be African-American and you're still American. And that multiethnic character of America is very attractive to people. They also see a place where you get ahead, not because of where you came from, because--but because of where you want to go. And an educational system that is open and where people achieve on merit. There is much that attracts the world to America. Even if they don't like American policies, this is the place that people want to send their kids to school, this is the place that people still want to come and find their futures. America's still a very, very powerful symbol and a very important place of leadership for the world.

    BARTIROMO: And yet some people say protectionism continues to seep in. The Dubai Ports deal could not go through, Unocal was unable to get acquired by CNOOC, there is difficulty in obtaining visa. How can we change that perception?

    Dr. RICE: Well, it is absolutely the case that we have to defend what has made us great, and that is to be a place that is open to people from around the world. We've worked very hard here at the State Department, for instance, to improve the ability for students to get visas to the United States.

    There's no doubt that after September 11th, there was a downturn in the number of foreign students coming to the United States. It was harder to get here if you were a business traveler. We still have work to do but I think we're making improvements, working with the tourism industry, working with business, to try to make sure that people who are trying to come to the United States can come to the United States. We need to fight protectionism with everything that we have because when there's a level playing field and when you have open markets and when free trade is flourishing, American workers, American farmers, Americans are going to benefit. When the international economy is growing as a whole, I will put my bets on American industry, American workers, American farmers, to get more than their fair share of that open market. But if we become protectionist and we become closed, then we are going to really undermine our own economic strength.

    It's true that we have to do more to help prepare Americans for the jobs that are available. I've been, myself, very concerned about education, both at the primary and secondary levels, and keeping our universities open to the widest variety of people. I'm concerned about math-science education in the United States. Too few engineers being trained here. I come, Maria, you know, now from the Silicon Valley, a place that one in every 10 patents in the country has come out of--in the world has come out of. We have to make sure that we are keeping and strengthening our great advantages. But if we close ourselves off, we're all going to suffer.

    BARTIROMO: And Europe is becoming more formidable. You've got China and India strengthening, we've got new leadership throughout Europe. Tell me how the new political face of Europe will impact American business.

    Dr. RICE: Well, the political face of Europe is one that has said very clearly that it wants cooperation and friendship with the United States. I was just in France and met with President Sarkozy. He made very clear that he believes in Franco-American cooperation. We have excellent relations with Chancellor Merkel in Germany, and of course, we ill have great relations with Great Britain. Those countries that are the strongest countries in Europe, together with our friends in--that have just come to Europe, Poland, the Czech Republic, the countries of East Central Europe, I think, make for a very favorable environment politically for the United States, because there we have very good partners who share our values, who are helping us to carry some of the burdens of international concerns, international problems. And I feel very good about our future with Europe.

    BARTIROMO: Let me ask you a question on immigration. Lawyers are planning a class action suit right now over the State Department's offer of visas to highly skilled immigrants last month, even though the Department of Citizenship said there were no more visas available. What happened?

    Dr. RICE: Well, this was a case in which for--at a certain point in time, we'd not filled the entire quota for these special immigrant visas. And made an announcement of that. But when they were filled, we had to cut it off at that point. There's a ceiling that's set every year and when that ceiling was reached, then we couldn't issue the visas any longer. But we're prepared to talk to people about what happened here. If there were problems in communication then those should be looked at. But it's pretty simple. We operate under a particular ceiling, and when that ceiling is filled, then we have to--we have to live within it.
    BARTIROMO: And unfortunately, aren't these the exact type of people, very highly skilled, some physicians, that America wants to attract?

    Dr. RICE: Well, it goes back to the point that I--that I made. A lot of people want to come to the United States. People will skills want to come to the United States. I'm a very big believer in having those people come to the United States, because the truth of the matter is, we don't, ourselves, produce enough of that skilled labor. We need to work on the educational front to make sure that we are producing us the numbers of engineers and the numbers of software people and the numbers of physicians that we need.

    Dr. RICE: But we need immigration as well. The ceilings have been set.
    They are not ceilings that we set, they're set in the--they're set by statute, and I know that there are many who would like to see them raised, but that's a--that's a matter for the administration and Congress.

    Changingjobs:

    You can begin working for company B on your H as soon as company B files an H petition for you, since the H1B is portable. You can also begin working on your EAD for company B, although that will result in you no longer being in H1B status.

    Any employment with company B is a violation of your H1B with company A. If the petition from company B is denied, you will no longer be in H1B status.

    You could then go back to work for company A on the EAD. If you wanted to work for company A on the H1B you would have to leave the US and reenter on an H1B visa.

    I am assuming your EAD is from an I-140/I-485 filed by employer A. You will want to make sure that your I-140 is portable under AC21, otherwise company A could pull your I-140 causing your I-485 and EAD to be denied.

    I am speculating this. Elite people in USA predicted this situation in early 90s and they put Country quota. We all knew that countries like UK, Germany, France are Staunch Allies of USA for many decades. So USA did not want those country persons to wait years . India was least favored country in past due to many political reasons. Though it is changing now still USA may like to give preference to many of their close Allies. Canada had TN Visa but India does not have similar thing. If this is a speculation then it is possible to change Country Quota. I strongly believe that it is easier to increase GC quota or recapture bill than removing country quota.

    Actualy per country quota was made in 60s replacing and even more rigid system that alloted quotas based on existing us population origin (mainly from western europe) by
    Senator Kennedy.

    My observation... based on i140 application

    My case was sent to NSC and it remained in NSC, however applications of 5 colleagues of mine got transfered to TSC... and another 3 remained at NSC

    There seems to be a pattern on how they transfer cases from NSC to TSC based on last name (this is totally based on a very small specimen)... posting it here to know if it holds any water

    Last name starting with A, C, E, G, I, K..... transfered to TSC
    Last name starting with B, D, F, H, J, L..... stayed at NSC

    any comments? again this is only based on my observation on a very small # of cases

    GC Struggle, I am not sure about your comments on "reactivated by filing an amendment with USCIS" to get back to H1B status after being employed with EAD. As per my understanding once you had utlized EAD then if one wants to go back to H1B then it is like a NEW H1B petition and NOT just claiming your old H1B. If possible could you pls provide a link to official document stating the approach suggested in your post.

    welcome guys, there is no state chapter other than us at this point, so indeed you are members :)

    IV has created a whole new forum for chapters to form and discussions to open but I fear most people don't find their way there...
    so far there have been just two of us.

    well...we have doubled our group already to 4! I'm sure there will be more, we should start thinking about what we can do to help on a local level.

    Thanks for your Reply.
    My Employer is also threatening me that if I ask him for salary then he will lay me off and immediately send me back to India.
    can he do like this ?

    Yes they need to give you lay off notice officially in paper and give you plane ticket to India.
    You can file the complaint and once they give you ticket to India , you can available that to go to India.

    In fact H1Bs shouldn't have been approved for your employer in first place. Obviously in your case the client is delaying payment but you employers need to have the
    working capital to pay you even if the client is not/delaying payment.

    This was a problem/abuse with the small consulting companies aka body shoppers for over a decade now. It seems that USCIS is eventually cracking down on this.
