We can never trust that lawyers have the latest information. That is why it is so important to get views from the community in forums. Everyone has different lawyers and has different experiences.

She definitely would have issues if plan to travel in TN visa. TN visa is not supposed to have any immigration intent.
The best thing to do is change her status to parolee and start working using EAD. There is no reason for her to continue in TN status, after filing 485.
-Morchu
I agree w/ Morch: TN, unlike H1B, is not a dual-intent visa. Change to EAD/AP.

What is your qualification?
Masters or Bachelor with 5 years of experience?
It may be safer to apply EB3 than EB2, if you don't have a strong case.
Hi All,
I applied for Labor in EB2 category in Oct 2007. It was pending for 2 yrs and 2 days back my employer mentioned that they see my Labor status as denied and that they have not received any denial letter yet.
My H1 will expire in early Jan 2011, so I practically have around 365 days from now to apply for a new Labor. My questions are
1. Should I re-appeal?
2. Do Labors get approved in re-appeal?
3. Can I start a new Labor application with the same employer simultaneously?
4. What�s a safe category to apply at this point in time. EB2 or EB3?
Thanks

Hi,
I was working with company# A as Electronics Engineer from Dec �03 to Jan �07 on H1B visa, Company# A filed my GC in May �05 (as Electronic Engineers (Except Computer), 172072.), then later I got very good opportunity in IT field, I quite Company# A and joined Company #B because I build very good relation with Company #A and there were ready to continue my GC file. In August �07, I filed I-485 (I got EAD based on pending I-485). Now Company #B giving me lay-off, so my question is �
Company# A still want to hire me after I got GC (because they were very happy with me, right now they don�t have position to hire me back), In this case can I continue working in IT field on EAD status (right now I am on H1B). My current (IT) and Labor profile are both different.
Thanks for your time.

I am not an attorney but questions related to your employer etc should not be asked if you enter on AP. They are more focused on those questions when one enters using a work visa of some sorts. I suggest you enter asap using your AP given that it expires in a month get your green card in hand and then you are free man. You can even go back work out of the country for a limited time until you find a project here. By the way congratulations.

Based on the information you have provided, I do not think there is any cause for you to be worried about being deported.
However, as an applicant for Naturalization, you have the burden to prove "good moral character". Usually, "good moral character" is assumed. But when there is a past criminal conviction, even a minor one such as yours, USCIS may deny the Naturalization application if there is no affirmative evidence of "reform" and current "good moral character".
So, in addition to disclosing the NY conviction, you should be prepared to submit documents showing that you are and for the past 4 years have been a person of "good moral character". Such documentation could include sworn statements from community or religious leader, employers, co-workers, and others.
If at all possible, you should find an experienced attorney to help you prepare these documents and accompany you to the Naturalization interview.

Hi,
I am in the start of 6th year of my H1b. I have eb3 catagory I140 approved from my current employer. I am trying to change job/employer and get an extension at the same time based on the I140. Now I am not sure if I should submit resignation to the current employer before H1 transfer and extension is approved or not. How much times does it take to do a transfer these days if it is filed through premium processing. New employer is already asking me to join ASAP which can be risky. I think the worst situation will be if I resign first and later on h1 transfer is denied. What is the probability of that. My current employer is large sized US company for whom I work directly and prospective employer is large sized US based consulting firm (who employs large number of H1B holders) and who will put me at client location (they probably have a fair number of consultants at client location and manager etc also )
I will appriciate any help/suggestion in this matter.
:confused::confused::confused:

I just got me H1B approval Notice and copy of I0129 petition. There is nothing wrong with approval bu I notice few things and have few concern questions to the group if some one had similar experience in the past:
1. Passport number was not correctly typed in form I-129 (however copies passport were sent along with the forms by immigration dept)
2. My Alien number does not show up in 797A approval notice as I have pending 485.
3. The I-94# on passport card does not match with the one on new approval notice.
Now My questions is :
Do I need to get this passport#(1) typo fixed now or its ok?
Is it ok not have A# updated in H1B Approval Notice? My wife's H4 have her A#.
Do I need to get my I-94# matched with the one I had in my previous notice and A/D card stapled in passport?
All this happened due to mistakes commited by our Immigration/attorney.Now she is not ready to listen and asks me to call customer service as she thinks its not her problem.
Any suggestions/experience are apreciated.
Thanks

I believe you would have to legally adopt her son and become his father. That may or may not be possible if his real father objects. The other option is for her to get her own independent H1/L1 visa and then have her son as her dependent.

Hello,
My husband's employer told him that the 6 year H1 B stay cap has been eliminated since the year 2008. Is that true?
Does it mean that as long as the USCIS approves your H1-B extension you may apply even after 6 years?
Thanks.

I am a newbie as well and have filed I-485, I-131, and I-765, and they reached USCIS by July 2nd. What happens now?:confused: I mean, I understand we will get I-485 receipt and AP and EAD and might even be called for finger printing. What after that?
EB2 India
PERM submitted in Oct 2006, I140 approved
After the show down of the USCIS and all the high skilled immigrats. USCIS posted that they are withdrawing the July 2nd board. This is great news.
I have filed my I-485, I-131, and I-765, and they reached USCIS by July 13th. According to the new board, USCIS will no long reject them.
So what will happen from now on? What is the procedure after this?
I guess this might be a newbie question. If someone can post some answers for me, it will be very helpful.
Thanks

on CNN politics section with title
"Bush tries to shift focus from war, Foley scandal"
Homeland security bill signed
After his remarks, Bush stepped outside on a patio with a view of Camelback Mountain to sign a $34.8 billion bill to fund homeland security. The bill includes $1.2 billion for about 700 miles of fencing along the U.S.-Mexico border, along with vehicle barriers, lighting and infrared cameras to help catch people sneaking across.
But Bush has been saying for months that the country's immigration problems cannot be solved just by tightening border security. U.S. employers need cheap foreign labor, and immigrants will continue to sneak in to take the jobs, Bush said, so Congress should authorize temporary work permits to match those workers with low-paying jobs that other Americans don't want. He also wanted to give citizenship to millions of illegal immigrants already in the United States.
But Republicans in Congress took a tougher stance against immigration and have refused to give Bush the more comprehensive legislation he wanted.
"We'll continue to work with Congress to pass comprehensive immigration reform that secures this border, upholds the laws and honors our nation's proud heritage as a land of immigrants," Bush said just before putting his pen to the bill's paper.

Visa is required when you have to travel outside US and reenter again.You can get as many extensions as possible by the law.visa stamp is not a problem for your next extension.
Thanks! This is good news. We have been working 24/7 and forgot all about this. I got mine but my wife did not travel at all and never needed the visa. I was worried that it might cause problems.

1) Does that require any additional fees?
There is no additional fee, all you need a compelling reason to expedite AP
2) How long does it take for AP to come thorugh after expedite
My friends mom was hospitalized, not life threatnening issue - he was able to obtain AP in a week. Onething to note, this was before July fiasco.
3) In three weeks time we are travelling to attend brothers marriage--> is this reason good enuf?
Brother's marriage is not a compelling reason to expedite your AP - One of the IV member could not make it to bro's marriage, please read http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=15101 , this can throw some lights.
4) Is there any harm or backfire due to trying to expedite through infopass
It will not bring you any harm, if you present the facts for your request. It applys to all your request, not only for AP.
5) filed 485\ap on July 02. recieved EAD and FP already done.
You are all set, all you need is AP to travel outside USA or you can trip, if you have a valid unexpired stamp on your passport.
