A friend of mine took infopass (new York) yesterday and got his AP. He had to wait for six hours though. He took a strongly worded letter from his comapny stating that he needed to travel for business reasons.

How long is your I-485 pending? Ever thought about suing the USCIS? This is still the country of law.
I cant. I have no money after paying for school, lawyers fees in GC. As I said my company did not pay a dime for getting GC work done. Had to bear all expenses myself. Dont even know whether company will pay for H1 renewal next year.

Thanks for the response raysaikat... the above information is definitely very helpful for me.
As i understand from your response i will not be subject to cap again if i plan to move from company B (cap-exempt) to company C(non-cap-exempt) as i was already counted once under cap.
If you do that within 6 years from the first time you went into H1-B status (i.e., from the time your H1-B clock started ticking), then yes.
However i also want to know when i plan to move from B to C in future, Although C will file a new H1-B petition, can this petition be filed any time during the year?
If you do that within 6 years from the first time you went into H1-B status (i.e., from the time your H1-B clock started ticking), then yes -- the employer can file the petition anytime of the year.
And if approved can i start to work immediately without a gap?
Please advise.
Thanks Yes. Actually you would be able to start working as soon as the employer got acknowledgement of receipt from USCIS --- you would not have to wait for the actual approval as you were already on H1-B.

There was a joke on something similar. I hope no one finds it offensive. It is just plain funny.
This guy walks into a sex doctor's clinic and begins with "My friend has a problem..."
Doctor: Ok..Take off your pants and let us have a look at your friend.

I received RFEs from my attorney and mine is on BC and my wife's is on Marriage Certificate + marriage photo and USCIS requested me to submit non avialability ceritifcate. I do have a BC with all the details but registered date is oct,2007 (That's when i applied for BC) instead of old date.
Is it a problem ? Do i have to submit anything more
Please advise
Thanks in advance
It needs to with in 1 year. Can we get a non-availability certificate stating there no BC registered with in 1 year of birth date?.

Thanks for your info ISUK.
I had my educational credentials evaluated last year and I missed last years quota in lottery. Can I use that for applying this years H1B or DO I need to get educational credentials evaluated again??
THE ONLY THING that takes time is evaluation part of educational credentials.
experts please answer

Not sure about the Mexico consulate, but you will most probably face problems if you go to Chennai consulate.In case if you decided to take chance and go to Mexico, make sure that you have valid F1 visa to come back to USA. Otherwise you have to stay in Mexico :-)
If I am in your position, i will not this type of chances.
how can you come on F1 back, when your status is changed to H1 as you have to show valid I-20 for F1 which you don't have or you have enrolled in any school for MS, MBA or..... as you changed from F1 to H1 you anyway need stamping.
Please correct me if I am wrong

Get a non-availability certificate from the local municipal office and submit it to USCIS..on a safer side..
HTH,
Or get the birth cert from Indian Embassy in US... They'll issue it based on her passport..
takes about 2-4 weeks... unless you can go and get it personally...

A consulting company that i had approached in early 2007 had filed my
H1B on April 1st '07 for which i only have a receipt # as yet. This H1 is obviosuly under the CAP. USCIS decision reg. H1 approval is still pending.
I was eligible to file for AOS / EAD thru my husbands GC petition and now do not want to take any job on the H1B with the consulting company. I have a offer from another company....i can join then when i get my EAD. They are willing to wait till i get my EAD.
Some concerns i need help with -
1)How does the contracting company withdraw or VOID my H1. ?
2) Do we have to wait for 797 approval to void it.? Or can they VOID it using only the RECEIPT # ?
3) If H1B is approved in the next few weeks then does the petitioner have to void it before the start of fiscal year - October 1st 2007.?
5) Does a attorney need to be involved to withdraw this case ? What is the exact process of nullifying this H1B.? Are there any specific forms to be filled out.???
6) What kind of documentation would i need from the petitioner who is withdrawing my H1B...Like what evidence do i need to get from petitioner that he / she has actually withdrawn this.??
Also are there any DOL or USCIS rules which state that - the employer has to provide me with copies of the LCA, I-129 petition, Letter that he writes for voiding the H1B. I should be entitled to recieve copies from the employer right..?? allthough i will not work for them..! Can somebody direct me to a link on DOL or USCIS which tells me that the employer should give me all these copies.
Thank you!
You are supposed to get LCA from your employer.If you don't get it you can complain to DOL using Wh4 form(http://www.dol.gov/esa/forms/whd/WH-4.pdf I heard some form is available to cancel the pending H1 , but not sure.

Are there civil surgeons approved by USCIS in India who can do the TB test for her?
There are so many green card cases which are counselor processing. How do they get their medical? So this is something you could explore the possibilites of medical test in India.
bbct & vin13,
Thanks for all your feedback.
I explored civil surgeon in India option. Didnt work out. Panel physicians in India do medicals for FB AOS. Civil surgeons in US do medicals for EB AOS.
It can not be interchanged since the forms and procedures are different.
Everyone I asked say gambling against USCIS is like playing with fire. I don't want to jeopardize my wife's pending I-485.
We should have done her TB test before trip. That is a mistake I did and now paying a price. Another Lesson learned!
