hi guyz,
Please advise on this issue: I work for a engineering software company. Currently I work as a 'Technical Support Engineer', but my company has offered me a position of 'Sales Engineer'. I have already applied for my I-485, but have not received a notice yet. If I start working in the sales position, will this affect my GC application? Would the USCIS know about my change of duties, if my 'salary' and 'position title' remains the same? Please reply. Response will be highly appreciated!

Hello Mates & Buddies,
I am currently holding Indian Citizenship and planning to file my H1 on Indian passport.
But at this year end I am also planning to take my Australian Citizenship.
So could anyone please suggest or share his experience whether transferring H1 on totally new citizenship is possible or not ? if yes then what's the way ?
And does anyone has any experience or knowledge of E3 (Australian Work visa to USA).
Thank in advance !!!
Always,
Nirms

If you are Canadian Citizen (by birth not naturalized) it should be pretty quick, maybe 6-18 months depending on FBI name check timing.
You should get your EAD 10-12 weeks.
I am not sure about one thing. As I know visitor visa doesn't have an immigrant intent, is that a negative or neutral in your instance.
As far as priority dates go Canada has always been current.
All the above I said is based on very little specific input about your case. Let some guru chime in who has been on this path already.

Hi:
I have H1b renewed on the basis of pending AOS application (EB3 june04) till 2012 and also ead/ap based on my spouse's AOS application. I am going to India on a vacation soon for a month or two. Recently I have heard many horror stories that even stamped H1B is getting rejected in POE. My question is that if something like that happen to me at the POE can I invoke my unused EAD/AP and request entry based on that? The reason I don't want to simply go back is because I have a house here in USA and a mortgage that I continue to be paying to keep the house.
Thanks

Hi,
I am quite frustrated with my present situation. Here's my sad story:
I came to US on L1B Visa through company A. In 2010 Company B filed for my H1B. They asked me to pay half of the H1B filing money ($1500) which will be returned later. They sent me a document mentioning that as a training cost which I signed and paid them online $1500. I shouldn't have done this. My mistake. I was never given any training and money was not returned. :(
Company B also verbally committed to me that they'll be paying me roughly 80% of the client project contract amount which they will be getting from the client. They asked me to sigh the contract document with them which mentioned my salary way to less than expected. When I asked why the salary is mentioned too less here, they mentioned that don't worry about it. It is done to keep the agreement same as LCA filled. And I'll be getting what I was promised. the contract document also mentioned that if i leave the company within 1 year, I'll be paying liquidity damages to the company. This was big trap which I didn't understand that time and signed the document. This was my 2nd biggest mistake. :(
Now for last 5 months they are paying me at very lower rate (what was in the contract which is roughly 50% of client project contract amount). I called them on phone and they mentioned that they'll eventually release my salaries but they never released. I sent many emails that this is not what I should be getting as per the commitment given but they never replied to my emails. I mentioned in the emails cleary that what I should be getting. So now they haven't paid me almost $8,000 in last 5 months.
I am planning to quit the company B and join company C.
Here are my questions:
1) Is there any way I can complain legally about Company B and get my money? I have sent many emails that mentions what I should be getting. Does emails can be used in this case?
2) If I leave the company B and join company C. Can they drag me to the court to pay for liquidity damages since I left them within 1 year?
I moved to H1B thinking that I would have a better life but it has become way more worse. Please advise me what are the best suggestions for me in this situation. Thanks a lot. :)
Please help me !!
Regards.
Hrithik.

We (parents) had applied for family based concurrent AOS in Aug, 2008 while we were on
tourist visas. We are now in India on Advance Parole(valid till Aug. 2009) that we received
after filing AOS.
Today(Feb, 2009) production of green card has been ordered for my wife and will soon be
received in USA. My case is still pending but we expect it processed soon. Thanks for all
the help.
My questions is
(a) What documents we need to show at immigration on returning to USA?. We have I-485
Notice, Advance Parole and valid Passports.
(b) Do we need to request somone in USA to mail our green cards on receipt.?
(c) How much maximum time we still can stay in India.? We wish to stay here for another 1-2
months. In any case making travel arrangements etc. is likely to take atleast 2 weeks.
(d) But is there a time limit for returning?
(e) Can we safely enter 2-3 months after the cards are received in USA, and
(f) sending GC by mail is not objectionable?
Also, in totality, Which one of these scenarios is correct:
1) Do we have to return immediately on approval of green card, enter with advance parole
only and it is not legal to mail green cards?
OR
2) It means if we can get our cards mailed and receive it here, we can safely travel back
with our green cards, even after 2 months of its receipt in USA. Overstay abroad is not an
issue whether it is 2 weeks, 2 months or even more. Am I right?
We would appreciate all the help here, as these are some of the question I have looked over
many sites and forums but could not find answers to. Thanks so much!

USCIS has announced that it has redesigned the Permanent Resident Card (green card) with enhanced security features - and a "new" color. For many years the card has been white, pink before that, and green a long time ago.
The new security features are described as follows:
Secure optical media will store biometrics for rapid and reliable identification of the card holder. Holographic images, laser engraved fingerprints, and high resolution micro-images will make the card nearly impossible to reproduce. Tighter integration of the card design with personalized elements will make it difficult to alter the card if stolen. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) capability will allow Customs and Border Protection officers at ports of entry to read the card from a distance and compare it immediately to file data. Finally, a preprinted return address will enable the easy return of a lost card to USCIS.
Existing card holders don't need to do anything. They will get new cards as they apply for renewals or replacements in the normal course.
For more information, see the USCIS press release (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=79bd3893c4888210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCR D&vgnextchannel=68439c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1 RCRD) and the fact sheet (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=34233893c4888210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCR D&vgnextchannel=68439c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1 RCRD).

Once you take appointment you can call the same consulate and sned required documents and get PIMS verified.
You mean even the consultaes in India verify that ? I thought only those in Mexico do that.

Dear Attorney,
Is there any minimum length of time to be on H4 before applying to H1.
Thanks
No minimum length of time, but i would wait for 90 days just to make sure that the USCIS does not say that you had an intent to change to H-1 when you entered the country and therefore you should have entered on a H-1b. Very remote possibility for them to determine that your entry into the country was based on wrongful intent. I would wait for 60 to 90 days to overcome this problem.

Yeah, the tripod is heavy but essential. I really like the fern too. Great dark background and subtle lighting on the frond.
