I received a RFE on 485 for a updated G-325 form and a Employment letter stating the Job details, Salary and if the Immigrant visa petition(labor certification) terms still exist. Iam a Jul,2007 filer, I have another 12 days to respond, this RFE was received by the company attorney. Now neither Employer/Company Attorney are responding to Phone calls/Emails regarding responding this to RFE. I do not understand what is their concern but came to know that few others from the same company got RFE on 485. Time is running out and if there is no response to the RFE, eventually the case will be denied. What are my options, Iam in my 4th year of my H1. I have a Valid EAD till Nov'2010 and H1 valid till Aug'2011. What will be my status if the 485 gets denied. Can I transfer the H1 to another employer and will need to start the GC process all over again ?
Any advice suggestions appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi,
I am on H-1B with a company and have been through my 4years of H-1. Now they are saying that they might not be able to apply for my PR before the start of my 6th year of H-1 and are offering me the following option: Need to leave US and go back to India or any other country, will be paid US salary and then after one year will be brought back on a L-1A visa. Now my question is can they pay in US dollars while i am outside US and still be able to come back on L-1A visa? or do i need to change into local payroll?

Congress may vote on the DREAM Act as early as this week. Unless the DREAM Act passes in lame duck session, it is unlikely that the new conservative Congress will pass this important piece of legislation into law during the next two years. All around the country, something incredible is happening. Student leaders across the U.S. are coming out and declaring that they are present in the U.S. without papers. This, of course, could lead to their being arrested and deported, and yet, they continue to do so in ever greater numbers. Consider David Cho, a 21-year-old senior at my...

Hi gurus,
I need your help, I am due for my H1b first time extension and I have requested my employer for the 1500 dollars "Education and training fee" , I got an email from the New HR personal to show me why the employer have to pay for it , I am trying to find a link to USCIC website where it clearly states the employer has to pay for it.But I am unable to find any thing relating to $1500 education and training fee, I did google search and it shows links from some schools and law firms. I would rather send a UCSIC link to the HR personal. By the way i am filing my H1B via Visa Kit.

I remember some time back having seen a link where you could get the list of labors/I-140 for a particular employer. I am not sure if it is in http://www.flcdatacenter.com/ . Can some one point to the correct link where you could get the list of H1 or Labor or I-140s approved for an employer based on the company name?

My cousin from India has a BCOM degree and he is filing for a H1 B visa.
He just heard from his lawyer 2 days ago that his credit evaluation was needed and he had to get experience letters for atleast 3 years of work ex.
He gave it to his lawyer and now they tell him that they will submit his application without the evaluation! They said that once an inquiry comes if it even does then we will submit the evaluation.
Is that ok??? or should he be submitting the evaluation with the application. I am concerned but I guess it too late now.
Thanks for the help.

Printing Office's Work Stacks Up (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/04/03/AR2007040301829.html), By Lyndsey Layton, Washington Post Staff Writer, Wednesday, April 4, 2007
The Congressional Record, for instance, is printed daily and captures every debate, vote, parliamentary maneuver, tribute to a fife-and-drum corps, post office naming, and utterance by members on the floor of the House and the Senate. It averages 250 pages.
Ordinarily, the legislative process is paper-intensive. From the moment a bill is introduced by a member of Congress to its signature on parchment paper by the president, the printing office must print 10 different documents related to that piece of legislation, often doing the work overnight.
The agency is producing 3 million or 4 million pages a week for Congress from its 1.5 million-square-foot North Capitol Street headquarters, the largest information-processing, printing and distribution facility in the world. Tapella could not say how that compares with the workload under the last Congress.
All the talk of paper led some members of the panel to question why the printing office, which was created in 1813 when printing was a central tool in communication, hasn't gone all-electronic.
"Are you completely transitioning to a digital system as some point?" the subcommittee chairman, Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D-Fla.), asked during a hearing.
The printing office is in the middle of a $29 million technological shift that will allow it to store and maintain all federal documents electronically, Tapella said. About 92 percent of everything it publishes now is available in an electronic format, said Michael L. Wash, the agency's chief technical officer. The agency produced its first online edition of the Congressional Record two weeks ago.
But Turri said the printing office will stick with paper until Congress directs it to do otherwise.
"It's kind of like the newspaper business," said Rep. Zach Wamp (R-Tenn). "They know things are going electronic, but they know people are going to want to read their newspaper with their coffee."

Just when U.S. employers thought the bad vibes emanating from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) could get no worse, the agency tasked with deciding whether to approve or reject requests for immigration benefits has come up with VIBE -- its new Verification Initiative for Business Enterprises which costs a whopping $35,506,760.43. Just imagine . . . . . . a program in which USCIS, by using VIBE, "will acquire information from an [Independent Information Provider (IIP)] . . ., which can be used to verify the eligibility of a company while detecting multiple types of misrepresentations." . . ....

Currently I�m holding h1 and same time has AOS with my existing employer. I�m continuing my employment based on h1 and use Advance parole for travel purpose. My employer mentioned about not revoking I-140, even if I move to new employer. Since with new client, I�m transferring my H1 visa, I have 2 options with regard to my AOS portability
1) Either just transfers my h1 without porting AOS with new client. Continue with my AOS with old employer, since he won�t revoke my I-140 and provide support for future employment.
2) H1 transfer and Porting my AOS with new client and it does require my job and description mentioned in I-140 matches with current offer.
I would really appreciate, if you provide your valuable suggestion/recommendation. The best option to go ahead with.

Labor, I140 approved and I-485 filed during July-07. Have EAD and AP but never used it. Still on H1B, extended for 3 years based on approved I140 and valid until Dec 2011. With my GC employer all along, employer is applying for LCA now as my new client is located in different state. My questions are:
� Whether there will be any impact on my ongoing GC process if the job description on this new LCA is different?
� If anything goes wrong with this LCA, whether there will be any impact on my existing H1 and eventually on GC process?
� If something wrong happens to my H1, can I still switch to EAD after that?
� What is the process to move from H1B to EAD within the same company, is filing new I-9 with EAD detail is suffice?
Thanks

The Government Accountability Office has released a new report studying the accuracy of the E-Verify database. According to the report, the number of tentative non-confirmations has decreased by 5% over the last two years, an indicator that the system has more complete records than in the past. The report also praised USCIS for instituting new measures to protect the privacy of employees and improve oversight of employers proper use of the system. But the report has also raised concerns as well. The report concluded that false tentative non-confirmations are more likely to relate to foreign-born employees which could lead to...

The May 20, 2009 Memo from Barbara Velarde, Chief of USCIS Service Center Operations, (�Velarde Memo� or �Memo�) provides some important guidance to adjudicators on the requirements for H-1B beneficiaries seeking to practice in certain health care occupations, which is of significant import to occupational therapists ("OTs") and physical therapists ("PTs"). The crux of this guidance is as follows: advanced degrees are not required for health care professionals enumerated under 8 CFR 212.15(c) (including OT and PT candidates) applying for the H-1B nonimmigrant visa classification�thereby reversing a recent trend of USICS in denying H-1Bs for OTs and PTs who do...
