Just curious�
Do these banks, which received TARP funds, have offshoring partners like TCS/Wipro? How is the offshoring part working? What does the H1B bill say about offshoring?

If "if you re-enter US before your extension is valid" is not the case then following is my experience.
Once you get the new H1 visa stamped, the old visa is "cancelled without prejudice" by the consulate. The consulate puts a stamp to that effect on your old visa in the passport. I don't see how an IO would consider the old H1 Valid at that point. I have gone through similar scenario once.
You are right, I stand corrected. I was referring to the scenario when trying to re-enter on the current VISA stamp without getting a new VISA stamp and expecting to get an I-94 till the validity of the approved extension.

If they never overstayed then USCIS has no case against them...get a lawyer to get them out..and then hire another lawyer to sue the USCIS. This is pure harrasment.

Quick approval, applied on 10/17 and approved on 10/20 after continous LUDs. The customer service rep at TSC told me when I called this morning. Awaiting the 5 emails.
But on the I-485 things are bit muddy. TSC told me the fingerprint is stuck at FBI, FBI told me today they returned on the same day..Aug 22, 2006! TSA rep suggested we fax the TSC Director to request updating records. My boss did that. Lets see what happens.
Its a relief to have an approved I-140!

I think what Asian means is that the stringent rule of 'Same kind of job' in AC21 makes AC21 usability very limited. If that condition is abolished, 485 is as good as GC in terms of job mobility.
Unfortunately that doesn't have a lot of support since it defeats the purpose of labor certification.

3. If new employer gives me the option to move permanently to its subsidiary in another country, what are the available option for me to continue with green card processing?
You can convert your I-485 to Consular Processing (CP) and keep your GC process going. Since GC is for a future job, you can work this out with your employer. Basically, your employer has to support you so that when you are called for the consular interview, you need to be able to show documentary evidence that you will be moving back to the US and joining the same job at or above the advertised wage once your GC is approved.
Are you sure AC21 is valid for Consular Processing? AFAIK, AC21 applies only to AOS applications. See Murthy's note on CP vs AOS @ http://www.murthy.com/news/UDaosvcp.html
Also, if you move outside of the country permanently, why would one want to pursue GC option? GC is only for people who want to stay in the US permanently. After getting the GC, there are other conditions you need to meet to maintain your GC status - one of them is to have the US as your country of residence.

How reliable is this Tracker(or any) data? I don't think all the registered people who gets their GC would come back and change the status of their application to 'Approved' in the Tracker. Though its better than nothing but still data is too vague to derive any real conclusion.
Here are two quotes from the Greatest thinker of all times :p-
'The quality of the output of any system is as good as the quality of the input'
- by sanju on IV in 2009
'Any system is as good as the humans operating that system'

I guess it means we all have to continously do our little part.

guys and gurus, Very desparate at this point, any help will be appriciated, I really need to answer these questions, please give me some guidance or some sample responses if any body of you have gone through same issues. PLEASE HELP
I have a very unique in RFE that I got. First a little background, My first H1 was with company A, from 2001 to 2003, in the year 2003 , the company had ran out of projects and had no more work for me. The vice president of the company A started his own company (company B) and offered me a job and did my H1b, I am still with the same company B till today. My labor is approved; I-485 is applied, got my finger prints done. Now the real issue, recently I got RFE on my I-140 and have 12 weeks to reply. With the standard RFE I have been as some other questions also. Here is my RFE in numbers
1 - It does not appear that the beneficiary has the two year experience in the job offered as required by the ETA 750 by the priority date.
My Question is how do I prove it
2- It is noted that (employer�s personal name) appears to be the Vice president of company A and Company B. Is this correct
Yes. I have explained the reason
3- The employment letter of company A is not dated and cannot be considered
What if I may get the employment letter with date, I do have my start date and end date mentioned though on the letter
4 - Please submit letter on company letterhead from former employers that identify their authors, the author�s job title and addresses and they must include detailed description of the duties performed including the dates of employments.
I do have the letters from my previous employers but not unnecessarily with the all informations that they are asking, how should I handle this
5- Please provide evidence the beneficiary has required experience as stated on the individuals labor certification by the priority date
6 - Please submit at least one of the following for 2003,2004,2005,2006 from the petitioner of the i-140
A copy of the corporations annual federal tax return including copies of all schedules or
An audited financial statement or
An annual report
7 - Please submit a statement from the petitioner and a statement from the beneficiary. Please explain the relationship between the owners of the petitioning business and the beneficiary.
8- Does the beneficiary have an ownership interest?
9- Is there a familial relationship [ between the owners, stockholders, partner, corporate officers, incorporators of the petitioner and the beneficiary/
10 - The indication must be made by the petitioner and the beneficiary
11- If a relationship does exist, please submit a detailed exploitation and provide evidence that the relationship was disclose to the Department of Labor prior to the certification of the ETA.
Now, I do not have familial relationship with the vice president of the company, I do not have any owner ship interest in the company. It is strange the VP of the company A and company B is the same guy , since he left company A and started his own company B and I moved with him to company B since he has a job for me.
Please help me here, I am really worried what to do and how to have all this information replied.
Thanks

My attorney mentioned that "Automatic Revalidation" does not apply when you travel to canada for visa renewal stamping given that the original visa has expired.
Nonimmigrants who are eligible to re-enter the U.S. pursuant to the authority of automatic revalidation are not able to benefit from the automatic revalidation process if the nonimmigrant's passport reflects evidence that while in contiguous territory or on an adjacent island the nonimmigrant applied for a new visa and is pending a decision or has been denied a new visa application.

Sure. It was an H1B transfer application. So, the RFE asked for pay stubs with company A. Also asked, if applicable, for company B's pay stubs. W2s for the whole time I was in H1 status. And my last six tax returns.
Could you please detailed RFE? It is difficult to suggest without the RFE details.

Hi Saji007,
Really? That is very encouraging indeed.
Even I have currently 5.5 years done on my H1B and looking to change soon.
BTW, I have my I-140, but I am not sure is there was ever a document they sent me with the PERM. Are these both the same thing?
I guess I don't have the PERM approval notice with me. Is this a hard requirement and if so do employers generally give the PERM approval notice to employees on request?

Hello All,
I am in a very odd situation which i would like to explain and get help from people here. I am a computer science student,who came on a F1 visa in USA in Jan 2007. I studied hard, and got good grades , and thereby got an internship in a good company immediately after 1 year , in Feb 2008. I was working on CPT(Curicullar practical training i.e work permit),which was full time, until Jan 2009 ,when i graduated.
Now i want to call my parents on a Vistors B category visa for my graduation.
I have a full time job since one year, so i am thinking of the fact , whether i could send a sponsorship letter to them in order for them to visit for my graduation ceremony. I have already taken a invitation letter from my school to invite them. Following are the points of my concern.
1: It was shown 2 years back that my father sponsored me for my education. So is it fair enough to show that i am sponsoring him immediately after 2 years?. Please note that i m still on F1 visa, and working now on my OPT. (My H1 will be filed this time in April 2009)
2: I read in a forum that students cannot sponsor there parents for there visitors visa for there graduation, because they are the ones ,who take there sponsorship, when they come for there studies. Is this true enough, even if i am working for 1 year now.
3: My father has already retired from a bank job, so he is not working. All his funds are in FDs (about 7 lacs), with a liquid cash of around 8 lacs in the bank, and a pension amount of 9,000 rs per month( which is quite low to tell to the visa officer). Is it okay for him to show his self sponsorship for him and my mother in this case? Will these funds be okay? If he is retired then will his income be not asked by the officer.
4: My parents visa has got rejected twice 3 years back, when they were trying to visit USA, under the sponsorship of my cousin. Then will this thing affect the issue this time again?
Friends i really want my parents to visit me for my graduation this MAY.They are in a dilemma about what to do in this situation. Please advice me in this case.
Thanks in advance

It was less than year. See answers below..
I think there is a possiblity that they might not cross check you G325A with the consulate becuase DOS purges non immgrant applications whihc are one year old. Since there are so many applications filed by the time they go for this check your data may have been purged ( this is a very high possiblity ) as by the time this request is made it would december or so . As i heard that TSC will issue recipts by Oct End ,beofer cross checking g235A there are many checks and many other processes they need to follow. So this is a possiblity.
