Yes, I realize a H1 transfer is needed to work in another company. And 140 is not approved. So the new company has to start GC all over. Too bad, it looks like priority date cannot be ported since it LC is still in process.

Hello,
I am not sure if this situation below has been faced by any forum member. Would appreciate any information/experience or advise from fellow members and attorneys
I am on H1-B - I- 140 approved stage (EB3) for past several years and have faced no issue with Extensions(5) and 8 Stampings over this long period, working for the same employer.Apr 2003 PD with 1 yr left on current H1 extension.
I 485- AOS not applied
I am now contemplating to return permanently due to personal reasons and in this process effectively abandon the H1-B and GC process.
After I return, my employer would keep the I-140 and GC process active and I may work for the same employer remotely.
What are the options I have ?
1.If I do not apply for the H1-B extension next year but my employer keeps the job open for the next few years(future employ), is Consular Processing possible once Apr-03 becomes current- say 3 years from now.. - what documents would I require in that case?
In the next 4 years, possibly Eb3 April 03 might become available thus making the AOS possible thru Consular Processing
Do I need to apply H1-B extension in this case if I am out of the US but still want to keep the GC process active?
2. If I need to apply for H1-B extension next year with the same employer assuming the job is still available (only if I return and assuming PD is not current),
Based on Neufeld memo, what would be the additional documents reqd for such an extension ?
3. In case CIS construes this as abandonment, would this have any bearing 10 years later, if I apply for Perm. Residence thru I -130 route, family based immigration
Would appreciate any advise on this.

Guys as the administrator (pappu) pointed out... we really need to be short and sweet and to the point... mixing issues will only create confusion and we will all look unorganized...
***admin's I used your template but tried to add some more personal touch to express what we all are dealing with, hope it's ok:
When you call stick to something as simple as:
My name is ____ and I am calling from [city], in the state of [State]. I am a member of a group called Immigration Voice – that represents LEGAL skilled immigrants.
I've been patiently waiting for ___ Years for my green card now, I came here legally and have always followed all laws of this land... I'm really disappointed and disheartened by what I see and read about the immigration reform bill.
All I ask is... (discuss all 3 issues or even 1 that you think will keep it simple and get your point across)
1) INCREASE the number of EMPLOYMENT-BASED green cards for LEGAL skilled immigrants who are currently backlogged. We request the Senate to ELIMINATE the backlogs BEFORE starting a new merits based system.
2) Urge the Senator to AMEND section 501(b) and INCREASE the number of EMPLOYMENT-BASED green cards for LEGAL skilled immigrants from 140,000 to a higher number to ELIMINATE the current backlogs, the SAME way the bill REDUCES backlogs for family-based immigrants in section 501(a).
3) Oppose the senate’s immigration bill in its current form because it reduces the number of green cards for legal skilled immigrants. It diverts these green cards to the proposed future guest worker program and to a proposed untested merits based system.

Kudos to Senator Chuck Schumer for raising the profile of a serious issue - discrimination against same-sex partners in US immigration law. Even as several states are enacting marriage equality laws and anti-discrimination laws are moving forward around the US (including here in my home town of Memphis), the antiquated Defense of Marriage Act prevents USCIS from treating these families fairly. The UAFA would be a huge step forward. The Senate will have its first hearing on the bill tomorrow. My friend Chuck Kuck, president of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, has posted his written statement here. Thanks to reader...

Besides, depending upon how the "CLASS" is defined- you will not lose your claim if they win the lawsuit.
It does not require you to have filed your case to benefit from the class action , but it depends on how the class has been defined. You can goto Rajiv's website and hear the latest conference call recording which explains his opinion on this.

I have been working for a private company LLC that operated as 3 smaller LLCs (regionally) but had the same/very similar names (e.g. XYZ, XYZ Asia).
I had H1Bs , LC, 140, 485 with this company.
Right now-
I have an approved 797 until 2010, but stamp expired in 2006
PD- Dec 2004
LC approved in 2006
140 approved 2007
485 applied July 2, 2007
Got EAD, AP in Aug 2007
Entered the US on AP in Dec 2007
The company and its regional entities changed the corporate structure and are now under a new legal entity name- XYZ (same as above). This happened after I got my EAD. To an outsider or our clients- there is no change. I have not signed any new employment papers with the new legal entity. Other than the address on my paystubs changing from my local headquarters to the WW headquarters nothing has changed for me.
Questions
Should I avail AC21/EAD because I am technically working for a different company?
Since this new entity has taken on the responsibilities for the old one, should I file something with the USCIS if they happen to check on the old entity when they adjudicate the 485?
Thanks in advance.

Unless the dependent is going to have his 140 filed under EB1 I am not sure it would help.
But to answer your question, I think it is ok to file. Check with your attorney before you do that though

Good afternoon all,
I am very new to this world of immigration employment, and I am not sure what I need to do to assist an associate in finding employment and (ultimately residency) in the US. He is a friend of mine's father, and has been out of work in the Ukraine for the last 8 months; he is an electrical engineer by trade and has university degrees.
From what I can gather, the Employ American Workers Act seems like it could be an impediment in obtaining a H-1B Visa (This is the type of Visa that he would need to work in the US, correct?)
Can anyone provide any guidance or suggestions on how to begin the job seeking process, and potential obstacles to be aware of?
Thank you so much for any assistance that you may be able to provide!

Folks,
My I-485 is filled at Nebraska Service Center. Does anyone has the address where to send AC21 job change letter ?
I plan to file it myself.
Thanks
To where you sent your 485 package. I recommend to utilize services of Attorney - primarily because they attach their cover letter with their letterhead which could make some difference

The moment the H1B is approved, your friend is on H1B. L1 gets automatically cancelled when the H1B is approved. This is what I am told when it happened to me. But in my case, both L1 and H1B are done by the same company. If they are different companies, I am not sure how it works.

I applied under EB2-NIW on July 28, 2007. Under the concurrent filing allowed at that time, I submitted NIW, I-140, I485, and EAD applications for me and my wife. I have changed jobs, and joined a new company last week.
Since I filed a self-petition, my application should not be directly affected by this move. However what do I need to do to inform uscis about this change, so that my receipts/EAD etc. do not go to the wrong place, or worse, get returned by the post office.
Please advice. Any additional info/experience would be great.

Hi all,
I am on H4 for the past few years. This year I am planning to switch to H1. A consulting firm of only 5 employees is willing to sponsor my H1. I would like to know the chances of my H1 getting approved. Because the company is small am I going to face any problems? What will be the impact of the size of the company on H1 approvals.
I would really appreciate your inputs because this time I want to resume my career again and I don't want to have any problems with H1.
Thanks,
Amul
find out about their ability to pay you so that they don't exploit you. If you are planning to apply for Greencard then this is very important.

My LCA for H1B extn for 6 years is approved on July 15. But still my company lawyer is not ready to file the extn. He keeps on saying that I didn't get the approval notice from DOL, It's certified online only, So without physical approval document, I cannot proceed.
Guys, Since it's certified already, Can he get a LCA detail and print using his account from iCert?
I also checked the online status in iCert (he gave me the case No), the status says certified.
So in this How long DOL took to send the physical copy of LCA?
Since my H1B is expiring October, I need to file extn ASAP. My company lawyer is not helpful ...
Your replies are much appreciated ....
