H-1B Certification (http://www.foreignlaborcert.doleta.gov/h-1b.cfm)
Upon DOL certification, the employer files the USCIS Form I-129 (http://www.foreignlaborcert.doleta.gov/leave-doleta.cfm?www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-129.pdf), the required filing fee, and other supporting documentation (including the approved LCA) to USCIS. Unless specifically exempt under the law, the employer must pay USCIS filing fees.
Thank you very much. I appreciate your help.

Generally attorneys charge a retainer fee. What that means is they are willing to represent you regarding any issues with a case. Some services are covered with retainer fee and they may charge additional fee based on any extra work. For Example AC21 Retainer fee is around 750/- where they submit a G28. Then for any RFE they generally charge in the range of 250$.

If you have a copy of filled-up I-131, look at question 5 in part 3 in the 2nd page. That will tell you where the AP document will be sent.
Admins:
Please close this thread also.
That question 5 should not responded if you are applying for AP.
Read the note below question 3.

I guess it must be Nebraska, as my 131 was approved by TSC about a month ago and the status is still case pending...
Is it at Texas or Nebraska?

Guys,
Need some urgent help. I just efiled my AP for myself, my spouse and my child and when I was done doing it, I noticed that it generated a notice number starting LINXXXXXXX. My problem is this - when I originally filed my I-485 last year during july fiasco, I was located in CA. But currently I am in Texas. That was the address that I input in the application too. But I am not sure why it generated a receipt # with LIN number. May be it was because of the question as to where my 485 is currently pending. The reason I am worried is because, when I filed my EAD exten (thru my lawyer), he had mentioned that he sent the EAD application wrongly to Nebraska instead of sending it to Texas (since I am in texas now), he made me re-do the application and sent it to texas and got me a SRC number for EAD extn. Now, do you think that I am in the right path? Do I need to send the supporting documents to Nebraska or Texas? Or is my AP application fees gone for good. Please help, as this is making me worried too much. Thanks.

"We have also improved our legal immigration system by reducing backlogs of immigration applications and devoting critical funding to promote innovative citizenship preparation and integration programs in communities throughout the country."
Any idea what they are talking about in terms of backlog reduction?

I was on H-1 and got laid off on July 23. I filed for COS to H4 online on the same day and got the electronic receipt the same day. As I had filed I-539 after work hours, the receipt shows that USCIS received my application on July 26 instead of 23. I got the paper receipt in next 3 days. I hope this will not create any problems as my employer sent notification to USCIS on July 31 and I received my last paystub on July 31 though it was only till July 23. I have been working in US with good status for last 5 years.
Now I have some questions. Any help is greatly appreciated:
1) I recently got two Job offers from different consulting firms. When I told them that my H4 status is still pending, their attorneys told me conflicting things.
- One employer's attorney said that I have to wait till my H4 is approved and only then they could apply for my H1. At this time I have not status and they cannot file my H1.
- The other employer's attorney said that I could apply for H1 while my H4 is still pending by giving pending petition reference in the new H1 application. This will let USCIS adjudicate both the pending status together and there will be no problem for my H1.
Which one of them is correct ? What are the risks involved if I go with the advice of second attorney? Is there a possibility that filing H1 increases the chances the both my H4 and H1 applications are rejected and I could be OOS ?
2) Second question is that the second employer wants me to start immediately after I get H1 receipt. Am I eligible to work on a receipt with my situation or do I need to wait for the complete approval ? What if I get an RFE ? As this is a consulting firm, they have work order from end client for only 3 months and it will be renewed after every 3 months. Will this 3 month work order will create any problems ?
3) What is my current status ? Will the current time while H4 is pending will be counted against H1 or H4 ? As I have only a little over year left in my H1, it is important for me to know how much valid time I have left for H1. This processing time could go in months if I get an RFE.

Guys,
I was coming to work and just heard a small advertizment about "All Things Considered" on NPR. The advt said like this -"There is so much debate is going on about illegal immigrants but there is little debate about Legal Immigration, that story later on today on 'All Things Considered'. "
Anyone has any idea? Not sure if they will be taking phone calls or its pre-recorded story but it will be good to have IV feature or at least IV agenda featured on NPR.

I know some people whose employers are lazy not to file new LCA when they switch jobs and move states. Some employers do it because they want to run payroll from certain states like Texas Florida where there is no state tax. I guess these people claim in consulate that they stay at the location where the employer is based and fly in -out to client places so do not need LCA of those places as they are not residents of that state. This is risky but consulates do not ask for LCA in most often cases never heard of any till now. Just pray you are lucky this time & from next time make sure your employer does it on time.

- If I get a new H1 sponsored (NOT a transfer of existing H1) and join a new company in a totally different job family (New H1 is not an issue because it is from a H1 cap exempt organization)
AND
- Also maintain the current H1 (I will continue part time work here to get minimum wage)
- Will continue my GC process with this co
I know this is possible but I want to know if there are any potential issues here that can jeopardize my current GC process. I am willing to do this only if my current GC process is not hurt in any way.
the second H1 should be marked for concurrent employment. As long as you follow all rules of the H1 LCA, there is no problem.

Hi,
I am a US citizen and my mom has been coming to the US once every 3-4 years for the last 15 years on a visitor visa (around 5-6 times). Each time, we had no issue in extending her stay, but her extension got denied yesterday. While I could have applied for her GC, she really did not prefer to apply for a GC since she wanted to spend more time in India than here.
My questions are as follows:
1. I have not got the official letter yet (had email notification), but is there really anything we can do to appeal her extension denial. I think I pretty much sent everything I could possibly can - letter with reasons similar to earlier extensions, return ticket itinerary, affidavit of support, bank statements etc. Another reason we gave is that she cannot travel alone - and my brother is leaving to India in 2 months and she wants to go back with him. I dont know what else we can say to extend her stay.
2. My mom is around 75 years old, and we really don't want to explore the option of leaving within 10 days (she never visited my brother in the last 5 years and she is with him now for only the last 2 weeks after a cross-country flight and recuperating). What I would like to know is - how soon can she safely leave. I think my mom is pretty much done with the US - and doesnt care if she gets a 3 year ban. But - I would like to know if there is any issue if she leaves in 2-3 months (i.e. overstay by 2 months considering the date she got her denial). Will they know at the US airport where she leaves, that she overstayed and (possibly) detain her for questioning. I know there are some airports that require you to document that you left by using a thumb-print.
3. 6 months+ overstay = 3 year ban. < 6 months overstay = ? (is this at the discretion of the POE officer? Can he deny entry - which would be kind of the worst possible future situation, but would like to know so that we can take as much of an informed decision as possible.
4. Can I apply for her GC now to keep her stay legal? Again, even if I apply - she is GOING back to India in 2 months and I will likely need to withdraw her application later.
Any advice on her options is appreciated.
Thanks,
Krishna

Please consult a good lawyer
like
OH at immigration-law.com,
Carl Shusterman,
Shela murthy
Rajiv Kanna
Please refer
http://www.murthy.com/485faq.html
I have the extract from the website
Question 4. What is a travel document and do I need it?
......
......
Please note that one who is out of status is generally advised not to travel abroad until the Adjustment is approved. A person who has accrued 180 days of unlawful presence and then travels abroad would not be readmitted to the U.S. for 3 years. For a one-year accrual or more of unlawful presence, there is a 10-year bar on reentry. The advance parole document would not protect one in this situation. Since 2000, the AP contains a specific warning about the 3-year and 10-year bars. Individuals should seek attorney advice before travel if there is a possibility that they have accrued unlawful presence at any time.
*****************
I would recomend you talk with Shela Murthy or Carl Shusterman, talk to the main lawyer directly, do not talk with the junior lawyer in the firm. Ask for urgent appointment, it would cost a bit more but it is worth it. I am sure Shela Murthy will find some way for you.
Good luck
