hi:
PD 2001..got labor certfied online on June28 2007
I have been waiting for the hard copy..so my Hr called Dol and asked whether they have mailed. The Dol officer sent the Cover letter by email (first page of whole approved package) to company HR showing the certification . She also told HR that cover letter was enough for I140 filing.
Is it true? Please let me know.
DB
It is not true.
This is printed in the I-140 instructions(page 3):
General Evidence.
Labor certification. Petitions for certain classifications must be filed with a certification from the U.S. Department of Labor.
Copies.
If these instructions state that a copy of a document may be filed with this petition and you choose to send us the original, we may keep that original for our records. Copies may be submitted of all documentation with the exception of the Labor Certification which must be submitted in the original.

Hello I am leaving for India in two days and have still not received my H1B approval. The receipt date is May 19th 2009. It is being processed at the CA center, is there anything I can to do get it soon.
It was a regular processing one, not the Premium processing one.
Help please!!!!
I am not sure what kind of help you are expecting from members. It seems you already are aware of Premium Processing (PP) service. If you had travel plans, you should have filed H1 under PP and not under regular processing. Anyways, you can upgrade your pending H1 to PP now by filing a form I-907 along with a copy of H1 receipt notice. But I dont think you will get your approval in the next 2 days. It usually takes atleast a week to 10 days to get it, that if its approved with no RFEs.

I received my daughter's and my I-797A approval notice. All information on the attached I-94s are correct, but we have same I-94# which is my daughter's old I-94#. I called USCIS 800 number. The lady who answered the phone told me that it's normal becauce my daughter is my dependent. I also went to local USCIS office. Basically they don't kown why it happened and how it happened. They say that I should send the I-797As back to the office where the approval notices are issued to see if it's an error.
Any one has this experience? Is there any problem that I use this I-94 number to file I-485 for my daughter and me which USCIS 800 says "no problem."?
Thank you for your comments.

It just cost 44 cents to file a FOIA. Just file it and think later how much time it will take.

Hi,
I am going to get married next week.
I am a H-1b visa holder and I have applied for green card. I am waiting to get approval of I-140.
I want to file the H-4 visa for my wife and I have couple questions :
1) How difficult is to apply for H-4 ? Do I need a lawyer for that ?
2) How will my new status effect my green card application ? Do I need to apply again for I-140 ?
Thank you for your help.
Andrea
1. First time it is always good to approach thru an immigration attorney.
2.No you don't have to.

I have a query related to entitlement of salary and back wages. I was laid off by a big MNC software company based in Texas in Oct 2009 . Just in span of 1 week , i was offered a position by desi consulting company starting November 1 . They started my H1 transfer process stating starting date as November 1 on LCA petition . I was told to wait until H1 receipt comes and client gives green signal to start the project.
Even after getting the receipt on 30th November , i was never sent on project neither paid .
I waited till 31st December and left the country on 1st Jan 2010.
What are my rights ? Am i entitled to get the back wages as stated on LCA petition because i was never paid by employer till date ?
What is the duration period i could get the salary ?
Please let me know the process to get my pending salary if i am entitled to get any
Are you trying to come back. Why didnt you try to get back the salary when you were in US?

Sanju, I hope you were right but they are talking about immigrants in totality (legal and illegal) . Unfortunately with the bad economy and job market this fire might be heading our way i.e. legal EB guys. (I hope I'm wrong)
fueling the fire, but they better make sure the fire drivesoff the right monsters , the illegals.

When you say "You need your employer's approval, without them you cannot change the attorney" Do you mean that they have to sign the new G28 forms ? Can you clarify ?
Thanks.
That will taken care in-between both the lawyers, but it is your employer who should be ready to accept this. I have one of my colleague who just requested employer and he hired new attorney and got all his papers moved.
So bottom line, employer should agree.

I am planning to get my H1 stamped during my next trip to India and have a couple of questions
1) Have anyone used Yourmaninindia or Sahara Care or any other service to deposit H1 forms at VFS Mumbai. For Mumbai consulate, the forms need to be submitted 3 days prior to Visa Interview and they do not accept courier :mad:
2) I recently found that if you have an appointment at one of the consulates in Mexico, you can Fax the 797 and get PMIS verified in advance.
Do we need to submit the entire H1 fee for appointment ? If there is a cheaper way, I am thinking of taking an appointment , get PMIS verified and cancel the appointment.
3) Any idea if they do a PMIS verification for H1 extensions (same company) as well ?
I am hoping this helps. My H1 renewal 7th year came through in December effective January 10 2010. I was at the Mumbai consulate interviewing for H1 visa on January 21st and received my passport in hand in 3 business days.

Why is Gary looking outside of USA to tap potential home buyers? Just for folks who aren't aware - there are 500,000 high skilled legal immigrant already in USA who are waiting in queue for numbers of years to get their Permanent Residency. Thanks to the limited visa availability based on country chargeability (birth of applicant) and inefficiency of immigration system, these highly skilled, tax paying and law abiding immgrants are waiting for their Green Card (Permanent residency). Some of them have studied here, worked here for years and US is almost a second home to them. They are sitting on pile of cash, Yes - PILE OF HARD CASH. They wouldn't buy house or any big ticket items until they get Green card. Why not give these people, who are already part of our system, conditional Permanent Residency who buy houses. This will also get us immediately required cash and home inventory will go down as much as 300K at minimum. P.S. I AM TALKING ABOUT HIGH SKILLED LEGAL IMMGRANTS AND NOT ABOUT ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.

Hi,
I have lost one of the old H4 I797 originals of my spouse. What is the process for getting a duplicate of it. I saw somewhere that I824 needs to be applied. But not sure of below doubts.
1. Who should apply I824? employer or individuals ( in this case myself)?
2. If employer need to apply, should it be current employer?
3. how long does it generally take?
4. Is it ok if I dont know the approval number as I dont have a copy of the I797.
5. What other documents are required?
Please help
Thanks,
Vikram
AFAIK old H4 797 is not important. My wife we did not have a 797 when we came here initially, also we had also lost her old H4 797 (but we had photo copies).Her 485 was approved without any RFE

Currently i have my I-140 approved an that is all i know. To be honest, PD to me means "the day my I-140 was approved". Is that true??
My wife lives with me on H-4 and she will hopefully get an ITIN this year. Now, how i understand the system, i cannot file for I-485 petition until, the date of my I-140 approval becomes current. Please verify to help me understand this system. Thanks in advance.
PD = Priority date. That is the date that gets assigned to your case which is the date your labor/perm was filed or the date you directly filed I-140 if no Labor/Perm was required. You can only file your 485 once the visa date in the visa bulletin for your EB category is either current, matches your PD month or is a date later than your PD date.
One you file for 485, you can avail benefits like EAD a.k.a workpermit for you and your wife who can choose to use the work permit to avail any job. There can be an argument made that still keep working on your H1, but EAD helps spouses work legally who are otherwise on H4 and are not allowed to work.
Again check with an attorney for legal advice, this is just a nutshell of the process. Hope it helps
