I want to transfer from H1B to F1.I came to US as a F1 and graduated in march 08.I got my H1B on oct 08.But now i want to transfer to F1 again and i had my visa till 2011. I had following doubts and please help me.
1) I heard that i can transfer to F1 from H1B without canceling(but deactivating H1B) is it true.
2) How much time does it take if i apply for change of status for F1?
3)can i take cpt in F1 and later on can i change to H1 by applying change of status?
Before answering your question...I want to know this.
You got your H1B in Oct 2008. That means your status changed from F1 to H1. Now its March 2009. So all these period are you employed and have the pay stubs for the same. If you dont have then you are out of status and you can not change the status to F1. If you want to change the status, you need to be in status first.

I see...so my 485 will be processed - it just won't be approved until the PD becomes current again?
If Everything set and once Your PD becomes current, Then you will hit the Lotto.

As long as you haven't used the EAD/AP for employment purposes, I think your H1 is still valid. If your H1 is still valid then I believe you can get your denpendant's H-4 extended based on our H1 validitiy. But I suggest to contact your company attorney to make sure your H1 is still valid.

Hi,
I have an H1 extn filed in Sep 2010 and got approved till 2013. This extn was filed from SC and the LCA also has work address pointing to SC address.
For the new project I now moved to FL and I want to go to india and get the visa stamping done on my approved H1. I just came to know from my layer that I have an OLD LCA and in order to get the new LCA I need to apply for fresh H1 application ?
If I travel to india for visa stamping with old LCA I can be put on hold.
Please let me know if filling for new H1 is the only option left for me. I had my air tkts already booked for a family of 4 for this month end.
Waiting to hear back on this ASAP please !!!

Is it true that my spouse (currently on H4) with pending AOS if outside US when my (principal applicant) approval comes, will not be able to use H4. Will her H4 get invalidated the moment i become a permanent resident. What happens if she boards a plane and reaches US to find that her H4 is not valid ?
Is this a valid circumstance. Has anyone been in a similar situation.
H4s better keep AP along when traveling.

Thank you very much for your reply. Just wanted to know what is "LPR"?
LPR = "Lawful Permanent Residence" = green card holder.

That's not completely true. There are improvements in UCIS processing. If you check H1 or I-140 processing time 2 years back , it was much worse then. I dont think USCIS processing time is a problem for us right now. Of course it would be nice to have faster service for H1 and I-140 or 485.

we were given special treatment because of our US citizen children. No waiting in line and even no qu from VO once he came to know about children
Actually I think that special treatment may be for all H1-b renewals. When we went for our stamping 3 years ago at Delhi, at the outside window they stamped our passport with "green" sticker or something like that and when we entered the hall at the FP window, they said you don't need to stand in line and we were taken directly to AO. We did not have children and it was my 2nd H1 renewal stamping and my wife's first H4 renewal stamping.

The primary applicant's H1-B status must be valid for the dependent to get H-4 VISA stamp. The primary's own VISA stamp is not an issue.
I second that.
As long as your H1 "status" is valid (I 94 is not expired and you are working for H1 job at the employer that is mentioned on I 94), your family members will only need copy of your approved H1 (form 797 with attached unexpired I 94). They will get their visa without much problem.
Good luck.

I am in the same situation and I filed for AOS using approved 140 from Company A. The only risk is, if we get an approval within 180 days then technically we will have to go and work for Company A for minimum 90 days, which in my case is not possible. My lawyer said that he highly doubts that any action will be taken in 180 days (my PD is June 05) and once 180 days are over, you can use the luxury of AC21 and could be working for any employer at that time.
I say go ahead and file for 485 and at the same time tell your employer to initiate LC process. They can use LC for some other candidate if you end up not using it.

Thank you Solaris.
But what I need is the Employer Offer letter to me. They gave me a letter with some 3 lines saying my job title, Salary and start date. It does not include the Job responsibilities. It does not even say the word "Full Time". When I asked them they said that is their standard format.
Do you have format that I can use. I want to send them and insist that I get the letter in that format.

Hi Friends
After clicking on donate link.. I found that,, minimum contribution through paypal/credit/debit card is 100$..
Can I donate 50$ as one time contribution by writing check on IV name and post it through USPS?
Please do not scold me for deciding to donate this much small amount.. My budget supports this much only at this moment.

Friends,
I am in the 8th year of H1b and I have been juggling this idea of changing my job because of a sucking work environment. I have Eb3 labor(it was applied in eb3 even though my job required and i had the eb2 experience) approved and 140 approved so can I get 3 year extension by changing my job or do you suggest to first get 3 year extension and then change, in which case will I still get 3 year extension is the question.
Once you find a job, ask the new employer to apply for a 3 year extension based on the approved I-140 (the courtesy copy should be enough). You can retain the old priority date when you re-start the GC process with the new company (if the current employer maintains the LC/I-140: not sure what happens if either is revoked).

Hello
I have received so many different responses regarding the shots required for over 65s. Our local health department, the INS Doctor and the INS all seem to be providing different information, I'm hoping someone can clarify.
The civil surgeon provided us with a list of shots, basically it contained all the shots including those that I thought were just for children. We went to a public health nurse today who gave us TDP and Varicella shots. Are the MMR, flu and pneumococcal shots required by the INS?
The INS approved Doctor wanted $600 per person for all of the shots. The exam and blood test were $120. We've decided to go to a private Doctor and the local health department for the shots instead of paying the $600. I'm hoping someone can clarify what is needed so that we avoid paying for shots that are not needed.
Thanks!

I have a couple of questions regarding H1B.
My current H1B(10th year) is expiring in a month and I am planning to use EAD. My 140 is approved and 485 is pending for over 2 years with company A. At the same time my second 140 is pending with company B.
The question is, in case if I used my EAD to work and for some reason if my 485 is denied, can I get back to my H1B? I was under the impression that I will have to leave the country and wait for 1 year to reset the clock but I was told by someone that its not necessary to wait for an year and I can file a H1B based on my pending I-140 with company B and will have to do it while outside of the country. ( This process does not require a new quota).
Is this true? any ideas?
Given the situation for 485 denial. AFAIK, You have an option of filing for H1B (not counted against quota) based on your B's labor approval and pending 140. Once you use the EAD, technically you don't have the H1B status to transfer or extend. Hence, it will require you to go to consulate (b/c approval will come without I94) to stamp, and start working for Company B after you return.

I have mis-placed my EAD. Normally I can just apply for another EAD. But, I will be travelling to India in Mid March on Advance Parole and I'm not sure if I'll get the EAD by then.
My question is, will they ask for EAD upon re-entry.
I am thinking of applying for EAD after coming back. Is there any special processing for applying for a lost EAD ?
Any advice is appreciated.
