Hi,
I am on Adv-Parole (with EAD) and planning to visit India in July 2010.
I know that UK and France require transit visa, but I was wondering whether I can fly via KLM (Amsterdam) OR Lufthansa (Frankfurt) without any transit visa ?
Will appreciate the response.
Thanks,
Venu.
if you don't plan on staying over in Frankfurt from personal experience no you do not need a transit visa.

I believe my situation is a lot similar to man-woman-and-gc except maybe that I am single. This is what I have achieved so far after sticking to Company A for 4.5 years (this one was pretty big in size; so didn't have to worry about any paperwork):
1) I-140 approved in August 2008 (total of 198 days till date i.e. March 5th 2009)
2) I-485 pending since July 2007 (USCIS receipt date of September 29 2007)
3) EAD valid till October 2010
4) H1-B valid till October 2010
5) PD: Feb 2007
However as a preemptive measure against any potential layoff from company A, I have started looking around. I am preparing a checklist of things that I have to inform the other companies (say company B) so that the transition is smooth. The 2 main things I can think of to talk about with any potential employer are:
1) I DEFINITELY want to maintain my H1-B; so they will have to transfer it. I will be pushing this to make sure I have the flexibility to get a dependent at any time
2) They will have to help me MAINTAIN my GC process. For example any minor changes in the position requirements to show that the job is similar or same. Thats one reason I am primarily looking at similar work profiles
I would GREATLY appreciate if someone from this thread can point me to any location or list out the things that I should be extremely careful about or notify to both my previous employer and the future employer to avoid any future pains in my GC process. A few things that I remember are as follows, but please provide more information that may be missed out here:
1) Do I have to ask Company B to apply for anything relating to my GC? I want to make sure that they know and agree to all costs associated with the paperwork? Dont want to end up paying from my pocket as I have heard in a few cases before
2) I believe since my I-140 is approved for more than 180 days or actually my I-485 being filed for more than 180 days, I am allowed to move, correct?
3) Since my I-140 is approved and I have an EAD, can USCIS/Company A cause it to be revoked? OR it doesn't apply to my case?
4) Do I need to ask Company A to maintain anything? Or just keeping good relations with them is enough :)
Thanks a lot to everyone in advance. Please let me know at your earliest convenience as you never know when opportunities come knocking at your door. Its better to be prepared ;)

I got my receipt number for H1b application and its been more than a week but i still cannot check my status online on USCIS website.
It says case is not found ,even tried calling customer service .
Does it take time to get uploaded online ?
Did anyone else face this problem
I am not getting any information from my employer.
Is there any other way we can find out if USCIS accepted my application.

Thanks

Currently, USCIS online case status site is reportedly experiencing some errors. The consumers are experiencing frustration with the incorrect information or outdated information when they check their case status. Apparently, the USCIS has been working on it to fix the problem. Pending that, the customers should keep patience.

Hello,
I am stuck in India (along with my husband who) after leaving USA where I am living for over 5 years. I just came for 2 wks here in India to get stamping done at the Chennai Consulate. They kept my passport and said they will give visa, in next 3-4wks..Its past a month and 3 wks.. I am force to live with relatives. I can't even go to my home country without my passport. Everything I own is back in USA. How do I get back to it? I am on H4 and my husband is H1B. I am holding another country's nationality. I can't even visit my home country without my passport. Why did the Consulate kept the passports for this long? :confused:Why are we being treated this way?? Why didn't they do a security check where I was living for over 5 years? I am so frustrated being stuck and worry about my home left unattended back in the US.
:mad:
Any advise? Can I contact someone to help expedite this process?

What you mean by "Becareful..lot of screening is going on in PERM"?
You mean in ALL PERM or in EB2 PERM.
My lawyer is very scared to file my new case under EB2 PERM. His opinion is we may get an audit.
I have already EB3 PERM/I-140 approved. And now looking to file EB2 PERM with Bachelors+ 5 year Exp. (due to degree evaluation issues I am not able to file under Masters + 6 month exp).
Ok, I also have one Tradional LC (from Texas) and one RIR case (from MN) pending in BEC.
So the new case will be my 4th case.

Hi,
Here is my story, your help & information will be appreciated...
1. I am currently working for Company A on L1B.
2. I applied for my H1B through company B while I was in US, which got approved and is valid from Oct 2007.
3. Now, my Company B which filed for my H1B had also applied for a Change of Status with the H1 & I have got my Change of Status notice along with the H1b approval. This means that my status will change to H1 from October and my L1B will not be valid.
Now, my problem is that I do not want to Join the New company until December.
However, can I still work with my company A on L1B even if after October.
Is there any Solution where we can reverse the change of Status?? and will i still be able to work on L1B after October even if my status is H1B. Will my L1B be valid or it will get cancelled???
No, you cannot reverse the change of status. The best thing to do is to join company B. From Oct 1st your status is H1. If you would have applied for fresh H1 then you cud have continued to work for company A.For this when ever you want to change to H1, you should leave the country and come back on company B visa.
I'm not sure what your problem is to join company B from Oct 1st.
PM me if you need more details. I did this conversion from L1 to H1 long time ago.

My EB1 is not a very strong case as it is, so we are relying on the EB3 petition. I will definitely correct my profile as suggested.
No disrespect intended, I still am not sure after reading your post whether one can take a employer sanctioned long leave of absence for a genuine reason in this case( child care).

Even GC cannot work on security Clearance projects. Only Citizens allowed.
That is true, but depends on degree of security clearance, if it is less than GC can work.
But what is the way out for H1bs??

Hello All,
Need you guys expert advise on a problem that I have just found.
I was on L1 since 2007 and in 2008 got my H1B visa done. Since I was in the US during september and october 2008, I changed my company who held my H1B as of 1st October,2008. I dont have an H1B stamp on my passport as I have not been out of the US.
It was only yesterday that I realised I had a I-797B approval notice, which from what I read yesterday, means that I have a petition approved but without I-94.
Now my L1 I-94 on my passport is valid till November 2010.
Need your help to understand if I have an issue here for the fact that I have worked with my employer who holds my H1B for the past 9 months.
If so what are the challenges that I have and the solutions for them.
Also has anyone been in the same situation.
Would greatly appretiate your help in this.

I am planning for Green Card application.
Who has experience about Accountant Green card application,
Eb2 or EB3?
If you use EB2 , how is your job title and education requirements and job descriptions?
Thanks a lot
Xbeartai
You will need a relatively high level position to qualify for EB-2, since there will have to be a masters requirement or 5 years of experience. To the best of my knowleddge, a Senior Accountant is at the lower end of experience levels (may just require a 4 year degree or a CPA). You will have to describe your position in more detail to get a better answer. To qualify for EB-2, you would have to be in a position more like an accounting manager (in a CPA firm), or a CFO in a company.

What is the best possible solution to get around different place birth on Passport and BC. Any has affidavit format for such issue please share it.
According to chat transcript from a lawyer's site some one had the same question. The answer is "USCIS does not care much about secondary document like passport and what's in the primary document like Birth certificate is important and matters". In other words they may not be comparing the passport and birth certificate for place of birth. Just my 2cents as I'm not a lawyer.
Hope this helps.

My wife changed her status from B2 to H1 in US.Her H1 was approved without any problems.Could that cause any probelms in the future when she applies for green card.What is the chance to get her H1 denied in the consulate if she travels abroad because she changed from visitor to work visa in US?
Thanks
