Sreenuuk,
The mercury is high these days on the forum...the bar is really low for the tipping point. Take it in stride :)

I could find this useful. I am in my 6th year expiring June 1, 2007. My employers are just about to file LC, so I guess being able to process I140 by premium will enable me file for a three year extension before my current stay expires.
May be they did it for those who are in 6th year and did not file LC 365 day before 6 year expiry.. Now they can file LC in perm get approval fast and then get Premium 140 to get 3 year extension on H1B.

Sorry, if this seems off-topic.
I'm on H1B visa and my wife is on H4 visa. We file our taxes as a joint return. My wife is currently studying for MS. She has received in-state tuition fees. We received 1098-T from the university. I'm thiking about getting a lifetime learning credit which will reduce my tax bill. My questions are:
* Are people on H1/H4 allowed to take lifetime learning credit for graduate studies?
* Will this have any negative effect on our greencard in the future?
Thanks.
Yes, you are allowed to take lifetime learning credit. It has nothing to do with your visa status.
It should not have any effects on your greencard process.

Thanks Scott! Do I understand correctly that you mean I could blend in an "unfiltered bird" over the "NeatImaged" one?
Ya thats what I was saying. Sorry if I was not clear, cold medicine blurs you clarity! Hope this idea helps a touch!
BTW, looks like your really enjoying the 100-400L!

Hi Perm,
When I requested the company they sent me the "Wage report" form.
I am trying to understand if this is really the "unemployment wage report"?, Is there a specific form number that I need look for and request the company to send me the specific form. It would be helpful if there is specific information related to this form.
Thanks a lot for all your help and valuable information.
Merry Christmas!
Thanks & Regards,
Chak

yes, he lucked out when his file/case/name/application got picked last Aug/Sept when that PD was current for a brief while.
I could be wrong, but don't the dependents also need their PDs to be current in order for their 485 to be approved?
The wife wasn't as lucky and her application wasn't picked while the window lasted, which is why she is still waiting. No?

Folks! MSNBC is organizing a gut check on the immigration issue (though this appears to be on issues related to illegal immigration). It's a message board inviting opinions on immigration with an expert panel set to reply to the meesages posted. Eventually, messages will be short-listed for publishing. We may be able to make an opportunity out of this.

I am working for company A for the past 8 years. they are closing down. I have got EAD and another job offer in the same category. My lawyer told me to transfer the H1 on the new employee. I told him about 6 years cap.(In case something goes wrong with my AOS i cannot stay as my 6 years on H1 are over). He told me that still i can have my 1 year extensions, does not matter even my 6 years are over. On IV people are discussing that once your 6 years cap is over and AOS is denied you cannot get extensions. Can somebody please clear up my situation. Thanks

Hi to all in this morass called Immigration to the USA,
#1 I've got a suggestion : IF there is some way we can get through to someone intelligent (duh !) at the IT department of the USCIS, would that be of some help to check up on what's happening with the cases ?
#2 My lawyer filed an I-140 in June of 2006 with a PERM labor of PD Dec '05. He filed it with a "copy" of the labor and case is still pending. In May he filed some paperwork with the USCIS about my case so that they (USCIS) would request a duplicate of the "original labor" from USDOL. All this sounds very complicated. I would like to know the experience of other people in a similar situation and what needs to be done to expedite this process ? My I-140 has been pending for more than a year .....
Thanks !
I believe USCIS has a confidentiality agreement with their employees and you donot want him to lose his job.

Hi,
I have completed 6 years on my H1 and then got a 3 year extension as my 140 was approved when I applied for H1 renewal. This is all with my current company where I am working on H1 and they have applied for my GC also. I also have a valid EAD till 2010 which I am not using currently.
If I get a new job, can I transfer my H1 and still keep my GC process going on or do I have to switch to using EAD at the new job instead of H1 ?
Basically, am wondering if we can transfer H1 and that way have a backup just in case of any issues with EAD.
Thanks for your advice !
Yes, you can do that by invoking AC-21. You dont have to be on EAD to join another company. You are perfectly OK if they are willing to tranfer your H-1 from the old employer.

Hello Friends,
Could somebody pls. help and respond to this query.
In case of approved Change of Status from H4-H1B , when can the H1B holder apply for a SSN. Do we need to wait till Oct. 1 to apply for the SSN or can we apply earlier.
I heard that it can take anytime between 2-8 weeks and the H1B holder is not supposed to start working till they receive the SSN.
Thanks a lot for your help, its greatly appreciated.
You can apply only after October 1st, since that is the day the H1B person is eligible to work (and that's what I did for my wife).
Please cross check, if there is any way you can apply earlier.

I was a student on f1 and had applied and used my OPT period. The OPT card has A#. I am applying I-485 with I-140 pending and have I-140 reciept
Should I use the OPT A# everywhere on the application?
I do not have any other documentation related to my OPT except the expired OPT/EAD card. IS this suffiecnt documentation?
There is question on the I-765 which ask IF i had applied for EAD before. WOuld the answer to this be yes I have used OPT before? If yes what is the location of the USCIS office where I applied. I have no clue about this

Do I still need a copy of I-140 if I have I-797 extended for 3 years from the existing employer?
If you already have your h1 extended for 3 years then you can get those 3 years with employer 2. Consult a lawyer though, when you actually switch jobs.
