I work for a big company. Each time when I move to a new project, my company ask me to file an LCA and H-1B amendment for new project location. It takes several month to get approval until then you have wait and face all travel restrictions.
I know that several smaller companies don�t file such amendments
Does anyone who why do we have to file such amendment?
What happens if we don�t file this?

Hi Guys,
Just need an advice to what to do. My wife is currently on F1 and she is graduating in Dec'07.She has and EAD and AP since we applied for her I485 and even mine is pending. Now I have apply for her 7th year H1B extesion.So my question is do we need to even apply for my wife status change from F1 to H4.She is planning to use her EAD.
lets say even if we apply for status change now, can she travel on AP even though status change is pending.
Thanks to all for the advices.

Hi, guys:
My friend filed I-140 and I-485 concurrently on 8/6/2007. His lawyer just got a rejection letter (not RFE) from INS due to the I-140 filing fee problem: The expected filing fee is $475 and the check in his filed package is $425. It is a $50 different. Does anybody have the similar situation as my friend ? And
how do you guys handle this prolem ? Any suggestion is appreciated.
Thanks

The American Immigration Council, an organization that does great work fighting for immigrants, annually honors immigrants of achievement. This year they have selected Cambodian-born Luong Ung who has been the national spokeswoman for Campaign for a Landmine-free World. She's worked on that worthy cause for 13 years. Ms. Ung came to America as a refugee of the "Killing Fields" in her native country and has paid the goodwill back by working on a cause that few would argue is vitally important. Congratulations Ms. Ung.

Hi,
I've been working full-time on EAD for the last 2+ years. I have a pending 485 application, on which my spouse is the primary applicant. I have never applied for H1B in the past, because I transferred directly from F1 (student visa) to this EAD.
My spouse also has an H1B, which is in it's 7th year (completed 6 yrs of H1B).
My spouse has been put on furlough (unpaid leave) for 3 months.
What are our options ?
1. Can my employer file H1B for me, and an H4 for my spouse ? How will this affect our green card application (on which my spouse is primary applicant) ?
2. How much time does my spouse have to look for another job (with similar job description), without being out of status ? Is there some grace period associated with H1?
Thanks

From the ACLU which is part of the coalition that is behind this suit: Implementation Of Arizona's Racial Profiling Law FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 22, 2010 PHOENIX � At a hearing today in a federal court in Phoenix, the American Civil Liberties Union and a coalition of civil rights groups argued that Arizona's discriminatory new law, known as SB 1070, should be blocked pending a final court ruling on its constitutionality. The law, scheduled to go into effect on July 29, requires police to demand "papers" from people they stop who they suspect are "unlawfully present" in the U.S. According...

E. APPLICABILITY OF INA SECTION 202(a)(5)(A)AS IT RELATES TO THE ALLOCATION OF “OTHERWISE UNUSED” NUMBERS
INA Section 202(a)(5)(A), added by the American Competitiveness in the 21st Century Act (AC21), provides that if total demand will be insufficient to use all available numbers in a particular Employment preference category in a calendar quarter then the otherwise unused numbers may be made available without regard to the annual per-country limits. This provision helps to assure that all available Employment preference numbers may be used. In recent years, the application of Section 202(a)(5)(A) has occasionally allowed oversubscribed countries such as China-mainland born and India to utilize large quantities of Employment First and Second preference numbers that would have otherwise gone unused.
If spill over has to happen every quarter as per the detail in above statement, why USCIS is not doing quarterly spill over, it looks like they are still doing annual spill over in to EB2 I and C. My question is am I interpreting the law correctly.Thanks for your help.

hi gurus, a question.
I am currently out of US but working for same company in Europe
I have approved 140, but waiting for PD to be current - (Jan/03, EB3-I).
I am now a sr manager and seem to be eligible for EB1C (if company agrees).
Option 1)
- continue to stay in Europe and apply for 140 (eb1c)+CP
- while waiting for 140 approval, am i eligible for: EAD and AC21 (after 180 days)
Option 2)
-move to US on L1 visa and apply for 140 (eb1c) + 485
Option 3)
- wait for PD for eb3 application to be current
Hope the above makes sense.
Can you pls suggest the best option & approx 'how much time' it will take for option 1 & 2. (understand option 3 is unpredictable).
Thanks

Guys,
I remember I have seen this in some thread but I can't find it now. So I am repeating question here:
My receipt number starts with EAC. In order to check processing times, which service center I should be looking at?

Alternative is invoke AC21 to a know company, who can support your feature GC and continue to work to any employer by transferring your H1B.

I just spoke with Xiyun Yang from Washington Post and conveyed thanks for covering a detailed article. She expressed that there is attention being drawn by many quarters including political for "Skilled LEGAL Immigrants".
Also we need to emphasize & communicate is the "increased fees" (almost doubled in many cases) for all USCIS services effective end of this month (July 30). Is this the penalty to be legal ?
The rallys and campaigns should emphasize this important detail too. This is huge money and not fair to the amount of service that is being currently provided.
