I am working for a MNC and I got L1 visa stamped. After marriage I got my H4 visa stamped.(After L1 stamping) But the Visa officials have not marked the L1 visa cancelled in the passport, does it mean that the Visa is still valid? Does that mean that i can still travel on my L1 visa?

Hello folks. I hope someone can help me out on this issue. I applied for my wife's EAD back in July 2007. The EAD was processed in two weeks and we received the card. However, my wife's middle initial was incorrect and we sent it back to USCIS with an explaination concerning the mistake. USCIS stated that it would take anywhere from 2 months to 6 months to process the correction. Last week I received a letter from USICS stating that I need to submit a completed I-90 form. A I-90 form is used to replace a green card. We just applied for our adjustment of status in 6/2007 and are not permanent residents at this point. Getting the EAD has become a nightmare for us. Do I try and write a letter back to USCIS stating that they are asking for the wrong form. I tried to call them but they said to respond to the letter sent. I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. Any help/advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I was on H1B until Feb 2009 and I applied for COS to H4 in Feb 2009. USCIS has received my COS application, and it is still pending with USCIS for 2 months now.
1. Can a new employer apply for a new cap-exempt H1B for me (technically a transfer, as I was on H1B for 2 years before)?
2. In that case, do I need to submit paystubs and W2s from when I last held H1B status?
Thanks in advance for your comments.
Note: I did not see any posts related to this particular scenario, hence had to create a new thread.

What is the new fee structure from Aug.
Is there any use in waiting till next bulletin?
If it is still current, then is it advisable to file in Aug since we save on subsequent year fees?

On June 17, the House Immigration Subcommittee will hold an oversight hearing on the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR), the agency which includes the Immigration Courts and the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA). Back in 2006, former Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez issued a memorandum outlining a series of reforms for the Immigration Courts and the Board of Immigration Appeals. There was a lot of controversy about whether new Immigration Judges were being selected because of their knowledge of complex immigration laws and regulations, or for reasons which have nothing to do with their qualifications. The Gonzalez memo made a...

It should not be a problem. Our GC's were approved when we were overseas and we came in using AP's.
Try to bring print outs of approval from USCIS website. If you have that, they will admit you as a PR. I tried explaining but they didn't listen and used the AP. If you have a printout they willl stamp your passport as a PR and let you in.

So far this year we've been hearing that Democrats will lose seats left and right. But some think that Arizona Hispanics, who represent one-third of the state's voters, will severely punish the GOP. John McCain has tried to appeal to the Republican base and supported the bill and all three GOP candidates for governor, including Governor Jan Brewer, have also advocated for the new legislation. Now suddenly Democrats may be competitive in both the Senate and Governor's races this November. A new poll shows that Democratic Governor candidate Terry Goddard has picked up 26 points with Hispanics in the last...

max, the problem is there is no clear cut definition of how an IO is supposed to respond to the scenarios you mentioned.
but i suggest that you search IV archives as this subject has been discussed in-depth before. i remember 1 or 2 ppl posting their AC21 and subsequent GC approval experience via self-employment/ LLC registration.
good luck. pls let us know ur future experience in this matter.

I got my H1 approved in Oct 2004 and it was from Oct 2004 - Oct 2007. I used only 6 months of H1 and later went on TN (work visa for Canadian citizens) and remained in US working on TN for 4 years. I was in US all these years. Now even the earlier H1 approval duration is over, Can I apply for H1 with another employer using the old 2004 H1 quota cap or it has to be under new 2009 cap? Thanks in advance.
Your H1 is NOT subject to cap as you had H1 in last 6 years.

We have placed this case I765 APPLICATION FOR EMPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION on hold because there is a pending litigation that may affect the outcome. We will resume processing as soon as the litigation is resolved. We will notify you by mail when we make a decision about your case, or if the office needs additional information.
This is my 5th my EAD Renewal and earlier I do not have any issues with Renewals . My current EAD Expires in December 1 Week . Please advise what I need to in this case , as I do not have any clue about pending litigation. Can I check with Local office about what was the pending litigation or do I need to approach through lawyer

USCIS has announced that it is working on a rule to create an electronic registration system for H-1B employers subject to the annual cap. Employers would first register an application and be allocated an H-1B cap number and then would file the case. The idea is that employers would need to register to claim an H-1B cap number first and then if they are selected, they then would prepare and file the case. Right now, employers have to go to all the trouble of preparing a case that may be rejected simply because the visa allocation is filled. I think...

Anyone following the cap count would see that H1B numbers have gone down from 45500 to 44400 in one week. Since obviously even if no one submitted an H1B applicn last week, the only way numbers could have gone down is if USCIS denied 1100 applications. Seems like a high number of rejections in one week. My guess is these numbers reflect the the RFE(impossible to reply RFEs) cases that were sent to the premium processing and a few regular processing cases that ran out their time limit and got denied. It will be funny( for the anti immigrants) to see if the Cap count numbers continue to go down and guess by sept 2010, the numbers still available in the quota would be around 60k?!?
Just another example of the ruthless and cold hearted stand that USCIS is taking towards highly* skilled immigrants.

I have a valid Visitor(B1/B2) visa stamp in my passport. I previously entered the country on H1B visa stamp which has already expired. Can I come back to US based on the valid Visitor(B1/B2) visa stamp?

You should bring evidence of your strong ties to the country where you live now - evidence of a job, family, house, club memberships, bank accounts, etc. Anything you can think of that would show an immigration officer that you really intend to return home at the end of this trip.

I see the following address in the I-485 form. But it is a PO Box address.
P O Box 87485
Lincoln NE 68501-7485
I think Fedex will not accept PO Box address. Is it true ? So, what is the correct address for sending I-485 and I-765 using Fedex Overnight ?
Please help me.
