Once you are on EAD, you cannot go go back to H1B. The reason is by working on EAD you showed an intent to immigrate and where as H1B is a non-immigrant visa

Can we get any help from these guyes?
They will want H1Bs to come back to India. Helping us with the greencard does not make any business sense.

She definitely would have issues if plan to travel in TN visa. TN visa is not supposed to have any immigration intent.
The best thing to do is change her status to parolee and start working using EAD. There is no reason for her to continue in TN status, after filing 485.

Hi,
I am Indian national on H1B, waiting on priority date to be current to file for I-485. My wife is currently working on TN visa. Will there be any issue with her being on TN status when I file for adjustment of status (for me and for her together). What options I can consider in advance so that I-485 process will not halt with last minute surprises.
Thanks in advance

Based on these reasons:
1. EB legals doesn't really count when it comes to the consideration. For one, the numbers that are suffering are too small; for two, what you go through is nothing in the eye of Kennedy's --- you have a job, you have enough food, you are not dying in the desert....you are having a pretty decent life, except that you wanted more;
2. Senators like Sessions can still argue that "so many legal people are waiting in the line", because you are indeed still waiting even though you can now file 485. So allow you to file doesn't really change their argument;
3. What makes you think that if you shut up they are going to have a easy day? It's not like that you have any teeth to bite any way.
So the PD moves forward is definitely a good thing regardless how CIR plays out.
Mark my words.... President Bush will single handedly make sure to pass the bill as it is.....
No one can stop it.
Do you all think it is just a co incidense that all the dates became current just when this bill (which was supposed to be in grave :rolleyes: ) is revived by those who extremely opposed it?
Do you know how many people will stop giving a damn, because they just filed their 485 s?
People like me who are result of bad practice employers are still here, and lucky ones will depart.....
We have been dealt a crucial blow here.

My PERM (EB2) was filed mid January 2008, less than 365 days before my second term H1B will expire in October 1, 2008. The case was audited in March and we responded in April 2008 to the Atlanta Processing Center. Since then, no news.
From what I understand from my lawyer, there will be a time gap when I will be without H1B status between October 1, 2008 and mid January 2009, when I will be eligible for an automatic H1B extension due to the PERM pending for more than 365 days. This time gap comes to a total of about 110 days.
My lawyer suggests spending these 110 days out of the country before October 1st, so they can be filed as a �time recap� and added to my H1B October expiration date. As a result, this would get me to mid January 2009 for the H1B visa extension, so I can stay continuously in the US.
As of now, I already accumulated about 60 days � all from vacation during the 6 years on H1B. If I applied this for time recap, it would get me through December 1, 2008. If I can avoid it, I would rather not spend the remaining 50 days abroad before my H1B visa expiration.
Questions:
Recap eligibility
- Does paid vacation count as time out of the country for recap filing and added to the H1B expiration date?
- Do travel dates also count or only full days abroad?
Recap filing
- If the recap filing of 60 vacation days get me to December, can I still go in and out of the country between October and December -- even though my H1B officially ended in October?
- Can I do a recap filing several times for time periods that I might stay out of the country between October and December, so eventually it would get me to mid January, the date when the H1B extension can be filed?
Filing after PERM approval
- What are the next filing steps if I get my LC approved before / after October or December?
My lawyer, hired by my employer, keeps me in the dark. Is my information correct? Are there any work-arounds?
I need to stay in the country, regardless of the filing fees or other costs. Which other filings are required and when, so I can stay continuously in the country?
Thanks for any tips and advice.

The H1B is counted against the cap only once in 6 years. As you already had a H1 any one can file for your H1B NOW.

Friends,
There used to be a number of threads created / discussed every day on IV... those good ol' days... a lot of good discussions on a variety of topics, including immigration:D
But of late I am seeing fewer threads on IV and wondering what could be the reason.
1. Either a lot of folks got greened and stopped visiting IV
2. or a lot of folks lost jobs & abandoned their GC process
3. or a lot of folks got frustrated and left for their home countries
Is this just me feeling this way or...?

How about working on an EAD in a part-time job while working full-time on your h1 sponsored job? I assume the h1 will not become invalid in this case because EAD is being used for the part time job.

When you file for a transfer to company C, the USCIS will see if the H-1 with company B was approvable or not before they agree to approve the H-1 with C. You have essentially created a bridge by filing the H-1 with company B. The USCIS has said that they would allow bridge petitions, however in order not to complicate things, i would convert company B H-1 to PP get the approval work for 1 month, get a paystub and then file a transfer.

To all the physician members of this forum....
Conrad 30 program is up for extension on march 6.
According to shusterman.com although the extension is gonna take place, they plan to make physicians exempt from employment based category as long as they work in medically underserved areas....
If this bill includes the physician clause that will be a lifesaver for a lot of people and also help in visa retrogression albeit little bit.
Hope it passes....any thoughts anyone?

Hi
My husband does not have an H1 stamp in his passport even though he has been in status since he did not go to india,right now he has got 3 yr extension on the basis of an approved I-140 petition,we are going to india to get our visa stamped next month.
Can anyone advise me whether not having a previous H1 stamp in the passport will create any problems for us in getting stamped now.He was on an L1 visa before converting to H1,he has not gone to india since 2002.
kindly advise
I don't foresee any issues - Remember to have all documentation pertaining to the L-1 visa, which he originally entered the US with.
Also, any letters from previous employer(s) stating his employment period, with title, salary, etc. should be helpful (though, not needed).
From what I think - he's visiting the consulate to get his H-1B stamped and as long as he has all the documents required for the H-1B visa stamping, he should be fine.
GOOD LUCK!!!

Thanks for your reply.
The only problem is that she started working from Jan 2008. From Oct 2007 to Dec 2007 she was not working. So I donot have her W2 and neither the paystubs. I do have the joint tax return that I filed in 2007, but that does not have her income. Is it possible to say that she was on leave during this period for personnel reason?

Folks, let us concentrate on sending the output of all the good analysis done by various members to this person who it appears has a job to identify and recommend systemic fixes. It would be far more useful than sharing woes amongst ourselves in these b-boards.
If he could fix everything we would'nt be in trouble.

For tax purposes you are resident of state where you reside. For best opinion you can check with the international students center at your school. It is not illegal to attend classes online if your school allows you the option. Again for best advise contact international center they are supposed to guide you to keep your status legal.

Hello,
I need to know if it is safe to travel to India on AP and EAD documents without having a valid H4 visa. My H4 visa had been renewed once and now after 3 years it has expired on Dec 12 2010. I need to go to India to see my father who is very ill. I want to know if re-entry into the US will be a problem on my AP and EAD. Also, will it effect the entry of my daughter (if she travels with me) who is 2.5 years old and is US citizen.
please help!!
