She can file her own extension using form I-539. You can use your receipt number in her application. I am planning to do the same. It doesnt make sense to pay the lawyer a grand for that. If your H1 is approved, her H4 will be approved. There is no way I can think of having your H1 approved and her H4 being denied unless she has any violations or out of status etc.

It seems as if the Big B has not given up on this issue just yet. He is making it a point to mention it atleast once each week, despite what other international developments are going on. I think he will be putting the full court press on the house republicans, it will be interesting to see whether he gets them to accept some compromise.

That remains to be seen. Congress cannot act in a mere speculation that there will be spierce competition between EU and US on skilled labor. US still attracts a lot of foreign skills. Increasing the number is not always seen as a solution but streamlining is or efficiency in adjudication is.
Anothe problem is that US thought it is adding more into the work force everyyear by giving out immigrant visas (EB). This is wrong because most of the applicants are already in the workforce under H1B and their dependents. What EB visas do was to retain these foreign skills by giving them permanent residence status. Therefore, EB visas are there not to add into the workforce but to maintain the current workforce.
The real visas for adding into the workforce is the H1B, which is temporary and only 65,000 per year which in a week time was used up.

Mostly IV and Immigration committee chair women, but how does it matter now.
I think It matters as what worked this time may also work for future issues like SKIL bill, raising GC quota, etc etc.

Dear friends ,
I just want to know if there is any new updates about the process of I-485 besed on marriage ..
They received my I485 APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS on September 9, 2005. till today I been calling them up and all I hear is still pending , I can't take this anymore .
They raise the fees every month or every week and yet they don't even make the process of all applications fast at all , I just sent my RENEWEL application for my I-765 APPLICATION FOR EMPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION and it has been over 90 days and I didn't get anything , this is sick .
Please Please everyone if anyone knows any new updates about the process or anything that helps to speed up the process let me know thank you everyone ...

QUESTION::
Can we use automatic revalidation to enter USA without getting our visa's stamped. My h1 expired in 2006 and my spouse�s H4 expired in 2006.
(Remember my spouse is applying for H1 )
ANSWER:: No, with Canadian GC you can not enter USA for long term work, without stamping. I think entry for one month is permitted.
QUESTION:: How safe it is Frequent travel to Canada and back
ANSWER:: It is safe to cross US and Canada border, if you have multiple entry visa.
QUESTION:: How safe it is to stay in Canada for duration of 3-6 months and come back to USA
ANSWER:: As long as you are in H1 B there is no restriction. In future if you enter I-485, there are complications, if you continue to travel back and forth at that time too.
QUESTION:: Once my spouse gets the H1 approved, should he move to H1 immediately or can continue on H4?
ANSWER:: Once the H1 is approved and if the new I-94 is attached at the bottom of the H1 approval, then it means the status from H4 to H1 is transferred. If there is no I-94 then the status will get transferred while you get the visa stamping.
QUESTION:: Stamping of H1 (first stamping for H1 in Canada) after conversion from H4[/QUOTE]
ANSWER:: It is ok to apply for stamping in Canada, because you have a residency there. If there is an issue then US embassy in Canada may ask you to get it stamped in your home country.
REQUEST ::
Please support IV.

Is that normal to have the same I-94 number on my renewed H1B and my wife's H4 approval notices?
Seems it is a mistake that my old I 94 is given in H4 extension application. Do I need to apply for correction? Any Lawyer / Member, please confirm. Thanks in advance.
I-94 is what determines your legal stay in the US. Since you get an I-94 only during your entry into the US, it is normal to get the same I-94# on any subsequent extension of status applications filed within the US. Your attached I-94s on the I-797 approval notice are proof of your continuous status since your white I-94 cards might be expired. But do keep the original white I-94 cards with you as you are supposed to return them along with the new I-94s attached to I-797 notices, when you leave the country.

the question is about the type of visa needed to enter canada. I have pending I-485 in US but need visa to go to Canada. I have tourist visa for Canada but was wandering if I need to apply for a diferent visa to visit a client of my company for a few days. The reason of my visit is obviously not tourism...
Does the question make sense?

I have mis-placed my EAD. Normally I can just apply for another EAD. But, I will be travelling to India in Mid March on Advance Parole and I'm not sure if I'll get the EAD by then.
My question is, will they ask for EAD upon re-entry.
I am thinking of applying for EAD after coming back. Is there any special processing for applying for a lost EAD ?
Any advice is appreciated.
EAD is not needed while entering on AP. 485 receipt notice is sufficient documentation while entering on AP.

Hi all,
This is for my friend who got his 3 year H1- B extension recently.
He planned to visit India for stamping and already booked the air ticket + consulate appointment.
But the Visa validity start date in his I-797A is incorrect. He joined this company only in 2006 but the start date shown in I-797A is sometime in 2001.
Though the END date is correct, Is it going to cause any problem in his Visa stamping?
He got only 2 weeks to fly and skeptical about the turnaround timeframe to file for correction.
His lawyer says it is a very minor problem and will not affect the visa stamping.
Please share any similar experiences / ideas.
Thanks a lot

Nothing to worry dude. Your wife is not out of status. Her I-94 is valid. No issues with 485.
You need to file for her extension for H4 with the new H1b so that she can continue her h4 status after sept.

Hi,
I have H1 that is valid till 2011 but when I entered using H1 ( I had EAD and AP also), the visa officer gave i-94 only till Jun 3rd 2009. I did not notice this error at that time. I realized this when my attorney pointed out this while applying for my new AP. The attorney suggested that I should go out of the country and re enter on EAD/AP and start working on EAD. What are my options ?
1) My EAD is valid till 2010
2) My current H1 is valid till 2011
3) My current AP is Valid till August 28 2009
4) My I-94 expired on June 3rd 2009.
5) My H1 visa stamp expired on May 2009
Should I go to Canada or Mexico and re-enter US with EAD/AP before my AP expires to start working on EAD and avoid any "out of status" issues ?
Does Canada Mexico ask for valid VISA and I-94 to get a visitor visa ?
Should I go to India(my home country) and re-enter US before my AP expires to keep my status ?
Appreciate a quick response as my AP is about to expire.

Interesting comment on one of old BusinessWeek articles.It strongly highlights power an employer holds over H1-B employee.
http://www.businessweek.com/globalbiz/blog/bangaloretigers/archives/2006/11/us_software_tal.html
"'m not at all surprised that the first few comments on this post have been very skeptical of the skills shortage.
No matter how you feel about the alleged shortage, you have to acknowledge that the H1B gives the employer a remarkable amount of power over the employee's life. The employer bestows the right to live in the United States upon the employee, and often sponsers the employee's application for a green card. Changing employers is not impossible, but it is tricky and perilous.
As an American, I can quit my job and become a contractor. An H1B can't. If my girlfriend decides to move across the country for a new job, I can quit my old job and go with her. An H1B can't. If I decide I'm tired of programming, I can quit and apply to law school. An H1B can't. And, most importantly, if I think I'm talented and should earn well above market rate, I can go into my boss's office and negotiate with the knowledge that I'm free to find a better deal elsewhere. An H1B can't - unless, of course, he's willing to give up on his wait for a green card and return to his country of origin and start all over again.
While I'm not a protectionist in any way, I view the indenturedness of the H1B visa as an affront to everything America claims it believes about human and economic freedoms. No employer should ever have this kind of power over an employee.
Congress is perfectly capably of creating an employment category for foreign nationals that preserves freedom for the engineer who comes to America. They still haven't. Why? Well, the most likely explanation is that the corporations who lobby for this visa *enjoy* this power over engineers. And this, in turn, leads to work conditions that drive America's best and brightest away, into careers in law, medicine, finance, and so forth, exacerbating the very shortage that the visa was designed to address.
Unlike some of the posters here, I'm ok with the existence of skilled worker visas. But any increase should be off the table until basic human and economic freedoms are preserved for the worker. In America, you have the right to quit your job. Period. "
