Hello Experts,
Little bit of background. I have been working on h1 since 2003 and applied labor in Mar 2005.
I have was able to get my application with 2007 filers. Got my 140 approved last year and ead and FP done as well. My GC sponsoring company is a desi consultancy, which is helpful to a certain extent and I have been with them since 2004.
I am in a bit of a dilemma now. The client, where I have been working for last few years, have instated a new policy in which contractors must be on W2 with the vendors. Vendor I am working with is not big and like any other consultancy (Tek, comsys), will fire if you don't have a project for 15-20 days. In the past, I wouldn't have bothered even thinking about this and moved on for another project but because of recession and difficult job market and I am contemplating this move.
After doing research, I am thinking of the following strategy.
I will transfer my h1b with the vendor and will not use EAD. Plan to work with the vendor for as long as possible and when the contract ends move back with the GC sponsoring employer. I am going with assumption that the GC sponsor will not revoke my 140 (even though it shouldn't matter as I am past 180 days with 485 and 140 is approved) and when the contract ends I have something to fall back on to. Doing that could secure me if USCIS asks EVL in future and I can simply my GC sponsoring company to show that for future employment. Also, I want to keep h1b as a way to bring my wife (if and when, with divine intervention, I get married somehow).
Do you think if this is a viable solution? Any suggestion is welcome.

My dad's own brother is a U.S citizen. I am here on a H-1B
My dad wants to visit the U.S. Who would be better to sponsor him ?
Me or his brother ?
Also, if his brother sponsors him, would the consulate ask why are you not using your son's papers ?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

1. If you renewed H1s from within the US...the I94 number should be the same
2. Check with an attorney - my attorney said, while AP is pending decision it is better not to travel

Few months ago, my company filed for my 7th year extension and USCIS approved the extension for only 8 months instead of 1 year (my I-140 hadn't been approved yet). My lawyers contacted USCIS for clarification and we finally heard back from them. They say that the approval of 8 months is correct and gave no explanation for why it was not for 1 year (which I would have qualified for since my LC was approved when the extension was filed).
Has anyone else experienced a similar thing?
Check with you employer on the validiity of the associated LCA. At the time of your H1 approval, there might have been only 8 months of validity left on the LCA. Other reason could be, assuming you are working for a consulting company, USCIS might have given you an extension till the end of the current project. I have seen several cases where USCIS only gave 6 month extensions because the project PO was only valid for 6 months.

I just wanted to confirm that "Document mailed to applicant" on I-131 means that the AP is approved. Can someone who saw a similar message please share their experience?

I have a valid H4 after receving the EAD now getting paid on 1099 (on an off), I am planning to visit India this year. My question is!
Can I come back on H4 (I have a valid stamp) or do I have to use my AP since I am using my EAD privileges for getting paid?
Will they know at the Point of Entry that I am using my EAD?
Many thanks for viewing and answering!

you did not see eb3 approvals because there were none. that simple.
Hi,

Appreicate your response EB3 guys..

IRS is very clear on this. SSN+ITIN couple filing jointly, no rebate for either of them. See this link http://www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/0,,id=179211,00.html
However, you should apply for an SSN for your wife ASAP. You may retroactively get this 2007 rebate when you file 2008 taxes.
Using your wife's SSN for tax purposes will not impact her legal status in any way.
Is it true that H4 spouse, who do not have SSN are not eligible for tax rebate if while filing a joint tax return for 2007 ITIN is used for spouse.
It seems ITIN is given to illegal aliens too and hence it is not possible for IRS to determine which ITIN holders are legal and which are illegal. Thus they are not going to give tax rebates to ITIN holders.
My wife is on H4 and has a EAD/AP. Should I apply for SSN to receive the tax rebates? But since the tax rebates are based on 2007 tax return I will have to file the tax return using her SSN to get the rebates.
Also will SSN affect her H4 status if EAD is not used?
What do you guys think?

A word of warning: If for any reason the US Consul in Canada denies your visa application, you will not be permitted to return to the US until you go to India and get an H visa.

Yeah. Same here. Very disappointing to see 2006 cases being approved immediately after dates got current instead of the 2004/2005 cases.

Any expert can let me, can I apply L-1 Visa, if I am in USA in H-1B visa?
My company is Italian based Company and in USA they have a branch.
It is necessary that I have to be in outside USA to get L-1 Visa
