I applied for my H-1 extension in mid April and my current H-1 is valid till mid August. After reading about the waiting times in the posts above I am wondering what happens if I don't get the approval until mid August. Will I be out of status ?
Thanks

As i understand for labor there are only 2 centers right ? one is the atlanta processing center and the other is chicago processing center. Atlanta processing center caters to the state in which my employer has registered his company so i believe he must have sent my application to this processing center only.

Hello,
Since that you are already a business owner in the US, I would recommend you also look into other options.
You know it could be not completely right on my part to tell you ways where you could become permanent residents Legally. But a little thought and research will show you ways.
If not feel free to private message me and i can try to provide you some tips.
Cheers,
N. :D

Thank you for your kind words Everybody!!

Hi,
We are filing I-140 in EB2 category in this month; I came to know from this forum that one should include 2 affidavits from past colleagues or managers with job duties if experience letters can't be obtained with job duties.
I have two questions with regard to Experience letters -
(i) My previous employer (worked in 2003 in India) is no longer in existence, and i could only get one affidavit from the client manager. I don't know now any other colleague from the company, so I�m not sure what can be done in these cases. Please advise...
(ii) I have obtained two affidavits, one from a manager and other from colleague for a previous company that i worked in 2009 in US. But the job duties they agreed to sign is not 100% equal to job duties included in PERM application for that previous experience. What i meant by difference is, wording may be slightly different or of the 6 to 7 job duties, one or two may be different. This happened because my manager advised that he could only include job duties of system analyst (per H1B petition) but my actual job duties are particular to a technology.
I'm not sure if there should be 100% match between experience letter/affidavit job duties and job duties included in PERM application for previous experiences. Please advise..
I think my thread is very long, but i feel this will help all of us to understand the legal requirement and help us avoiding any RFEs or denials in I-140.
Thanks and Regards,
PVGanesh

Yes pretty much looks OK but I wont be comfortable if this is format your parents will use. For close relative this format is fine.
For parents I am not comfortable with the statement "and that________father�s name) is his/her father and _____________ (mother�s name) is his/her mother."
So just dig a little and there were members who have posted the sample for parents and close relative.
Go to this link for format http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=5036&page=7
Affidavit does not have a unique format identified by INS, hence different attorneys may have different layouts.

keeping everything else aside
it is likely to be easier to get a residency on ead- choice will be wider
you have to consider though if it matches "job description"
you may not be the primary applicant though, on derivative ead- it's perfect

Your I-94 SHOULD have the same number as the old one!
Whether they give you a new white and stamped or the printed I-797 I-94 is a moot point. The validity date and the number is what matters.
I was once given a new I-94 after visa stamping in Canada at the Derby Line border post in VT with the same I-94 # as the old (and printed I-797 I-94) for a $6 charge.
You saved $6. Go buy nice milkshakes for the family and be cool.
It is a non-issue.

Hi prem_goel, I checked with two lawyers and they both said it is no problem al all to add my wife from F1 to I485 (AOS) when my PD becomes current.
The F1 will provide her legal stay in US and maitain her in status until my PD become current.
There is a lot of info on the internet about this, here is one link that looks relevant
Converting H4 to F1 and then adding to I-485 - Topic Powered by Infopop (http://murthyforum.atinfopop.com/4/OpenTopic?a=tpc&s=1024039761&f=1474093861&m=1081076091)
About I485 denial, what chances are for this to happen? Does anyone kknow how likely is that your 485 gets denied? I heard is not very likely.

The day I applied that day the PD was current.
Are you joking that I will get my GC soon.
All the last so many months, people have been talking that its going to take about 5-6 years still to get a GC, because there are not much GC VISA numbers available.
Also that date is showing as 19 july 2007. does it mean that they have just picked up my application and started processing and will take few months to process since they have to go thru FBI check etc and all other weird processes?
Does anyone have any hard data that there are any chances soon for getting GC in hand?

Hi All,
Just a brief overview of my scenario...I came to US on H1b in Nov 2006 for a small consultancy and started work after 2 weeks .....and continued at the client until the last day..
My Company used to pay us 1 month lately i.e for say month of mar we were paid in may....as such when i left them after giving them proper notice i had to take 2 months salary ......after a lot of persistence from my side my employer deposited my 1 month salary in bank account but diditn sent the associated paystub and stopped replying for the other month salary and paystubs...
meanwhile I applied for H1 Transfer through a reputed company in July before resigning and giving the paystub for may which was generated in month of July......
I am waiting for the transfer to complete so as to report my previous employer to DOL....for recovering my wages and documents.....
I have all the valid documents like approved timesheets and client reference and letter citing out details of dates till i worked as well as email correspondence with my previous employer...
In worst case if INS ask me for the June and July Paystubs which i didnt get from my employer, can it effect the H1 Transfer and if so can the document like timesheets and client letters,bank statements, email correspondence with my previous employer suffice.......
If u all support i want to teach this guy a lesson...so please come forward and give me suggestions....although i was always working but still due to this stupid guy i have doubts in my mind....
Hey People i want justice ,this guy has harrassed me a lot and put my carreer at least 2 years back....i had excellent background allways worked with reputed concerns...
Please help...any help will be highly appreciated.

I-485 AD - 09/2007
Congrats. So you are an old timer, with PD 2002. (Being from ROW) you luckily escaped the name check torture.
I am also a relatively old timer ( PD Nov. 2002 ). Unfortunately stuck in namecheck since Aug.2006. My fellow Indians say , i can just sit like this for another 2 - 3 years in name check :-(
