I just read in Murthy.com that if a H1B is terminated and the same company wants him back they have to pay the entire salary for the period he was out of job. (google H1B employers obligations) So i think that won't be your case. You should be on EAD.
When you are on EAD they need not inform USCIS. There is no need for you to join your old company back.

What will be my status after i file my I485?
My current I-94 will expire on 16th Sep 2007 (on the day my current visa stamp in my passport expires and my current H1 B is set to expire Mid April 2008).
I am planning to make a trip to Cannda or someplace to get a new I-94 as soon as i get my new passport (i had sent it for renewal on june 2nd). But i am a little worried about my status if i am unable to make the trip.
So my question is what will be my status after 16th sep 2007 (once i file for I485 (first week of July2007) and my I-94 expires on 16th Sep 2007)?
Appreciate any responses ...
Your status has nothing to do with that. If you say that your H1B is good till April 2008, then you are in status till then

I have applied for Advanced parole at the end of July 2007. My H1B visa is expired, but my H1B petition is still valid. Should I just take the risk of traveling and try to get H1B visa renewed to re-enter ?
OR should I just keep waiting for Advanced Parole to be approved ? I can wait until end of November 2007. But I am not sure whether I should plan to travel in Dec 2007 or not. I dont know how long its going to take to get the approved AP.
Any thoughts ?? Do any of the July filers who have filed for AP know what time frame should we expect for approval of I-131 (AP) ?
:confused:
Thanks in advance
You should be very careful of what you plan to do.
Your 797 validity has nothing to do with your ability to enter the US. Its your passport visa stamp that is examined at POE, i am sure you are aware of it. So if you wish to travel on your H1 and enter back then make sure your visa stamp is valid or make plans to get a visa stamp from your home country.
No second guesses on when your approved AP might come, so if you are ok with renewal of visa then go for it. Its your call.
good luck

Hi Gurus,
I have efiled for my wife's EAD/AP renewal. When I finally submitted, the total payment asked was only $645( 340 for EAD and 305 for AP). But, there is a note stating the following:
"The biometric fee is $80 for applicants ages 14 through 79 who request a Refugee Travel Document or Re-Entry Permit, unless the applicant resides outside the United States at the time of filing their form."
How am I supposed to send this? I was not asked to pay this amount during my efiling of the AP/EAD concurrent filing.
How am I supposed to send this? Can I send it as a separate check for $80 only for the biometric fee( because I had already paid for the EAD/AP using my credit card)
Please advise.
Also, during the AP filing, I got this:
"On a separate piece of paper, please explain how you would qualify for an Advance Parole and what circumstances warrant issuance of Advance Parole. Include copies of any documents you wish considered. (See instructions.) "
What an I supposed write in the document that I am going to send to USCIS?
Please advise.

One in the East Coast, One in the west coast and one in between.
For the West coast I would pick the SanFrancisco Marathon (Just to be sure that gsc999 participates :p) on August 03'rd. The participants of this event can choose either a 5k, half marathon or a full marathon. This event should be fun to be part of. We have lot of committed members in our No.Cal chapter.
I would love to take the lead with this project. I have done a fund raising initiative for Arthritis Foundation of America when I ran the Mardi Gras Marathon in honor of my mom. I raised $1,100 in a 6 month period for the AFA. The idea I have is that Team IV members will participate at their local events and we should pick 3 national events such as the Chicago Marathon/Half Marathon, the Breakers 10K (is that San Diego?) and even the Crescent City Classic 10K right here in my hometown. Team IV should be well represented at these 3 national events.
Team IV members can set up an e-mail support group when training for any events. There are numerous on-line training guides which we can use. And I can also look into the idea of an on-line training coach.
I already have the committment from 4 friends, all of whom are US Citizens, to join this Team because they support our cause.

as per http://www.indianembassy.org/newsite/NEW%20PASSPORT.asp#1
The following documents and fee are required to be submitted with the application:
� After having filled the application online, print a copy.
� Affix photograph as per specification in the box (do not staple photograph)
� Old Passport (in original)
� Additional booklet, if any, (in original)
� Three recent passport size photographs (3.5 cm x 3.5 cm -front facial pose). Photograph should have only a white background. (Photograph with coloured or dark glasses or in uniform or in Polaroid prints or Computer prints will not be accepted). One photograph to be pasted on the space provided on the first page of the application form
� Two proofs of residential address of the applicant, which may include current Driving License, Utility Bill, rent lease agreement showing the residential address.
Photocopy of the first five and last two pages of the original / old passport;
� Pages of passport showing US visa or Green Card (in original) Employment Authorization Card (in original) or other visa documents must be shown at the counter. A photocopy of the entire document / Card should be appended with the application (in case the application is sent by mail, a notarized copy of these documents should be sent);
� In case application for Green Card or EAC or visa is pending/being processed, a copy of documents in support of this fact must be submitted;
� In case the current passport does not contain the name of the spouse and the applicant wishes to have it entered in the new passport, copy of notarized marriage certificate must be submitted along with the application.
I am confused with few things in the above list of reqd documents:
1.It says white background , But I am only able get Cream colored background photos in CVS or Walgreen's
2.When I went notary in Bank Of America , the lady at bank says that she can't do notary for any copy of the document , she says she can do notary for a Application form that is signed in front of her.Same with marriage certificate.
I am confused and I need to travel by the end of this month.I need to drive 10 hrs 1-way to go to the consulate personally.
Don't hold me against it, but don't get paranoid on these aspects. Most of the rules are common sense and there is some room for ambiguity :-)
Light cream is good enough.
Just take a copy and certify it yourself ( by writing true copy and affixing your signature). I am guessing there are people who review these documents and unless they see something fishy, there should be no problem.

"Representative Elton Gallegly (R-CA) introduced H.R. 133, Citizenship Reform Act of 2007, which would limit citizenship by birth to children born to at least one permanent resident or citizen parent."
Does this mean that if we do not have green cards our childern born here are not citizens. Am I understanding it right..
This is just a proposal still and I fell will not become law anytime soon.

Exempt from the H-1B cap; not the EB cap. See line 14 on page 2 of H.R. 5630 (http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=110_cong_bills&docid=f:h5630ih.txt.pdf).
Bummer!

Did I mention EB cap in my earlier post? I mentioned CAP which does not conclude that it is EB cap. I went through the bill too.
No offence to anyone. Of all the drama that was going on from Jan 2006 until now, I feel (+ve) that our issues(EB relief) will be taken into consideration only when they come to the topic of making the illegals into legal residents of this country. Any immigration debate in Congress cannot be taken up without considering the Illegal Issue.
We will see and will be surprised to see that an illegal will be granted a status independent of an employer and will also have the travel permit and he/she can live here forever renewing his status.

Man, you are so crazy about opening so many threads for the same topic. You cannot force people to send letters. And by this time those who wants to send letters had already sent to WH and IV. Give us some break. I come to IV site to get some information on immigration issues and what I get are 'n' numbers of threads for same issue. ---- ADMIN FIX.......
These are the active threads I found on the front. Let put our energy on different things and get move to other issue, other than sending letters. If you want to be moderator or something else in IV contact PAPPU directly.

A lot of people lack motivation because they just canniot pull the trigger and once in a while we must give some push.

I sent mine and spouse's 485 receipt notices and both the I-140 approval notices. I sent only copies. You really need to find the correct PO Box number of TSC or NSC to send the documents. My attorney sent the letter to NSC general service PO Box and I do not think that it was correct. I am planning to send the same stuff again to 485 filing PO Box.

Being in Consulting and searching a new contract at the same place of residence (during Nov-Dec) is always a nightmare. I'm in IT industry for last 10 yrs and into consulting for last 5 yrs and always tried to keep clients Extra-Happy starting Nov 1st , so that i could get thru these 2 winter months.
Starting Mid-Jan the budgets will open up and you will surely land up.
IT Jobs are there - worst case you may need to relocate.
Congratulations on becoming a new Father. Though your name sounds as if you were the mother :). Anyway, if you got 4 interviews in 6 weeks, that sure does not look like weak economy. I remember the recession of 2001-2002. People used to get one interview in 4 months back then.

Hello there
YES you can convert into EB2. If I were you and get some offer to convert into Eb2 I would do it. Eb3 is not going to move until Eb2 will become C. and chances are that Eb2 India may become C in next 2 years if same rate labor get approve. If you go on convert route. lets assume that labor takes 18 months and I 140 takes 6 months. that is 24 month it self. Now after 2 years your case can be current but if you stick on Eb3 then after 2 years it will start from 2002. So if your PD is in 2004 then you may need another 2-3 years for that.
So bottom line is you need to find some one who has job opening in Eb2 and ready to file for you. Which is very rare opportunity in given environment. almost like a winning a lottery with 10k prize.

Hi Guys,
I need your help on this. My cousin is running this small IT company in india and he mentioned that when US client sends their money to India via Pay Pal or some secure money transfer , they are charging them 4 % of transfer amount.
He ask me that what could be the best way to avoid this fees , some of the option that we thought about,
1) If they (cousin's company) open an bank account in USA and utilize this to transfer the money to indian bank account - Would they still need to pay US tax as money is being deposited into the US account?
2) If I utlize my bank account - I think in this scenarion I have to pay the US tax for whatever money the client is depositing into my account in order to make this legal transfer
3)If US client utilize remit2india, ICICI to transfer money which I highly doubt
I appriciate your responce on this.
