When your H1 is ready to be approved, just go back to Canada, get it stamped and enter US using your H1 visa (I-94 should have H-1 stamp)...Thats it, then you are all set...Even after entering on AP, you can continue to work on H-1 if you are still working for the same employer....No need to re-start/re-apply anything...Your EAD/AP will all be still valid but you will be in H-1 status...You can just keep renewing them...The only thing is when you get married and bring your spouse on H-4, you wont be able to file for her 485/EAD/AP till your PD is current again...

My friend - the list provided the consulate is a list that is now being asked after thoughtful deliberations. Consulates do not fall easy prey to petty politics of local (US) congressmen or Senators.
They have not mentioned that if you dont have any-one of these documents you cannot apply for an interview. If the petitioner is good enough employer there is not harm in going w/o one-2 docs missing and a explanation letter of why its not there.
If the employer has tax filing for previous years, employee list and wage report to proove that employer has paid IN FULL and IN TIME to all employees irrespective of whether they were on bench or on assignment then there is nothing to fear......
If you have been in similar situation (not being paid on bench...or employer is exploiting you) its your personal problem. Dont say that there is no mis-use and govt should not plug the hole if it has not done it in the past.

This is what you can do - Both in Mumbai and in Delhi, you have USCIS approved doctors who help people going through CP. In other words those who choose to go through emp based CP or family based Green Card which US embassy issues, go through Indian hospitals in Mumbai and Delhi. I think Gangaram in Mumbai has this facility. Ask your wife to get it done from there. Do not wait till the last moment, as someone pointed out, a slight delay in flight could............
Note that for employment based adjustment of status cases, the medicals ABSOLUTELY have to be done in the US by a USCIS approved civil surgeon. One can get the immunizations done in their home country, however the exam has to be done in the US.

I read through this proposed legislature and there is absolutely nothing to worry about.
your valid drivers license is clearly mentioned as one of the acceptable proof of legal status. you need to be arrested or there should be obvious reason to suspect ilegal presence for the law official to ask proof of legal status. Why is that of any concern? That is perfectly normal in a legal society. You dont have to walk around with your 797 or 94s all you have to carry is a valid drivers license. Even if you dont have a license you will be given a chance to proove your legal status or inother words the decision is not made on the spot.
Again for those unfortunate who are here ilegally this law might become an issue. But we might end up seeing inflation as a result of these crack downs. More industry particularly packing/agriculture might migrate oversees. Anyway we will wait and see.
You say all these because you understand. Most of these police officers out there (and even Immigration Enforcement officers) dont understand the laws they are enforcing. I once asked an american embassy consular officer during an H1B renewal interview how long I had to stay in the US if I get laid off from my job. She smiled and said she doesnt know. Ironic right? That is US Immigration laws for you. So complex yet so unreasonable.

A PhD does not automatically qualify you for EB1. There are a lot of other requirements. Unless you are in a research or teaching job, it's hard for PhD's to qualify for EB1. Besides, there's the small matter of getting an H-1B or O-1.
If she has a PHD in CSE she should look for a job get H1 and file Green Card in EB1 all off this can be done in 6 months! What's holding you back???? :)

not sure what you meant but all your benefits CEASE on the day of your termination in the job..
Pardon my ignorance Gurus.
But Hypothetical....what would be the scenario, if,
- I leave the job-A on 1st of the month.
- join new job-B on 2nd of the month (very next day) but new employer wants me to complete 30 days before providing medical insurance
- my job-A insurance company sends me COBRA option in two weeks time as required by law
- Prior to I fill and send out the COBRA docs (roughly 2 - 3 weeks), I have to make some urgent visit to doctor...say in 1st week (say, on 4th of the month)
- will my job-A company will deny this claim as they only received my COBRA paperwork by 18th of the month whereas I went to doctor on 4th????

Very interesting:
They say that they will run Master's cap first, then put the leftovers into regular cap lottery pool. But it would be better for master's degree holders if they did it the other way around!
We know the master's odds are better than general pool odds. Maybe about 50% vs. 25% this year.
Think through the math! It would be more advantageous for Master's degree holders to go through the general lottery first, and only if they lose in general be put into master's lottery. Maybe there would be less than 20,000 general lottery losers with advanced degree, then there would be no need for another lottery, they would automatically get the 20,000 that's allocated for them.
Is USCIS trying to screw Master's holders on purpose, or are they just bad at math and screwed them due to ignorance?
The spirit of the whole master's cap law is to give master's holders an advantage. USCIS had a choice here of giving a small advantage (master's lottery first, then general) or big advantage (general lottery first, then master's) and they chose the smaller advantage.
The whole fact that we're here thinking about the odds, just like horsebetting, is of course ludicrous in itself.
Good luck to everyone in the lottery.
Even horse-betting has some amount of skill level (of the horse) and knowledge involved when u place a bet...and to think about it....When I used to be in India, I was told why India is not improving is because meritocracy takes a back seat everywhere while in US people are rewarded based on merits. I now realize with the backlog and the H1B that things are worse out here. GC process is such a long and arduous process that it takes the most productive years of your life away by forcing to work in a company without a change in position. H1B has now become even more of a laughing stock because of the mega lotto we have every year and everyone could see this coming 100 miles away and pity that nothing was done for last 2 years to address this problem

class action lawsuit?? for using up too many visa's too fast?
wow. for once (& only once) I feel sad for USCIS. They are damned if they do, and damned if they dont. Usually all talk of class action lawsuits have been for visa numbers that they wasted by approving too slowly. Now another one for going too fast... :D
Seriously, I would be very very happy they are for a change working really fast so no wastage of numbers this time around. common guys don't you think is it good for us over all. may be we will not see some movement for some time but at least you know that we are not suffering because of USCIS's inefficiency.

knowledge, knowledge and knowledge! The earlier- the better.
Greatest disappointment that haven't discovered IV back then, say in 2001:D
Very true.
Lack of awareness and information is a big problem. Starting the process early is better. I have seen some people undecided about GC and waiting till the end of H1B to start. It is at that time they discover retrogression. Some discover retrogression only after 140 approval. Until then they are not even aware of IV.

ICE do site visits to investigate employers. It happened to one of my former colleagues. What officer did was to verify that he was a genuine H1B employee. The officer visited his manager at client's place and verified his duties.
However I haven't heard an officer visiting one's home.

Try getting info from any other consulate...you will feel the same.... I used to feel the same until I dealt with UK / French /Italian consulates for tourist visa....it was as horrible...
I dealt with the UK consulate and the CGI India at Chicago. Now, agreed this was many years ago, when I used to have a desi passport.
There was an awesome Asst. Consular Officer (i forget the exact designation), but her name was Deepa Jain. I submitted my desi passpost for renewal at CGI Chicago, using the procedure described on their then brand new website. Waited 4 weeks, nothing. This was in 1999, so I decided to call the conculate, totally expecting nobody to pickup the phone, but to my surprise, somebody picked up!!. I gave them the details of my application and old passport and the lady who answered the phone said "we will call you back".
Now, knowing what that means, I began to prepare myslef for weeks and possibly months of frustration..BUT...lo and behold, two days after my call to them, Ms. Deepa Jain called back ON MY cellphone to tell me "your passport was renewed and I wil lmake sure it gets sent out today itself!!". To tel you the truth, I was totally blown away, and if Ms Jain is still around in any of the consulates, hats off to you...but I digress..
Now comes the part with the UK consulate, again, in Chicago.
I wanted to visit UK and applied for a visitors visa providing them will all the things that they need. Their requirements are very stringent and they want a ton of information too.
The delightful englishwoman at the counter in UK consulate started to ask me all sorts of questions while leafing thru my documents. When she saw a copyof my Canadian PR card in there, she stopped and asked me to show her the original card, which I did. Once she saw it, that was it. Her next statement was "You may pick up your passport in the afternoon".
So, two things, it is the desi sarkari babus who mess it up for us, in the consulates and it is the poor image "enjoyed" by our desi passports (which used to be hand written" up until a few years ago) that create problems for us in the non-Indian consulates (European ones to be precise)J.apanese, Korean and othe Asian consulates tend to be much better in this regard.

ashkam,
You are missing it again. What is a driver license for ? Drivers license is a drivers license. It is a verification whether one has the driving skills and knowledge to drive safely on the road.
What has it got to do with job or immigration status ?
Matters related to Driver license are largely decided by States but with "Secure ID Initiative" passed in the Congress, some of the powers have shifted to the Federal Govt. Many aspects of Secure ID initiative are still work in progress but some of the states have taken pro-active steps.
Driver license is not merely used for letting the person drive BUT ALSO serves as a photo ID.
Your immigrant status is linked to how long you can stay in this country. Your stay in this country is prescribed by the laws established by USCIS, Department of Homeland Security and other agencies. Driver's license is the single most important photo identification is this land. It shows who you are, where you reside and if you are legally in this country.
You use your photo ID to board a plane, when applying for a loan, to deal with various govt. agencies etc.
As for your question as to why driver's license is used for ID: That same question has been debated by lawmakers and thus came the idea of "Real ID". Go lookup info regarding Real ID and you will be pretty happy with using Driver's license as the ID.
Why is any of the above causing your grief ? Why references to slavery ? As long as the system is transparent and documented on their websites (like DMVs), I fail to understand your angst.
