Hello,
So let's say my PD is current and my processing date is current as well. The USCIS starts looking at my 485. While they're working on it, the PD retrogresses. Would they drop my application since my PD is no longer current or would it still continue to be processed since I've crossed the PD-current hurdle previously?

Hi,
My H1B expired on sept 2009. My employer applied for my visa extension I received my approved 797 copy, but I 94 number on my 797 and passport are not matching. To explain further, when I first entered in US in March 2007 I got I 94 (ex: 123), when I last time entered in US in April 2008 I got I94 (ex: 456) which is my latest I94 number displayed on my passport. My latest H1B extension valid till sept 2012 is showing I 94 number issued to me when I entered in 2007 (123) instead of my latest I 94 number(456) attached to my passport.
Will this be a problem? I have to sponsor my in-laws visa so please guide me how this can be handled. Any help appreciated. Thank you very much in advance.
USCIS goes by what is called "last action rule". The last action was the extension issued after you came into the country, even though it has the 123 number on the I-94. So, you should be ok.

newyorker123,
this I 140 is applied by old employer but did not share the receipt# and no 485 was applied that time. I want to port the PD from that I140 to the current I140/I485. For that purpose, I need the copy of old I140.
ssingh92,
I just applied the FOIA and just crossed my fingers. Lets see how it goes...
Thanks for all your radvise and support!

It will never happen here. Even if it does happen, it will still have an annual quota, which would lead to priority dates.

I got EAD on February 2008 with my primary GC employer. My PD is just 4 months away and I got a job offer in a big company which I cannot afford to loose.
The the job duties in my new job remain the same but I am worried to change job during this time when PDs are jumping very fast. The max I can delay the joining my new employer cannot be more than a 1 month. Please suggest the best approach...
The best approach is to go ahead and change the job. What are you worried about? File AC 21 via new company's lawyer.

Thanks Krishna for your quick reply.
I understand I can�t invoke AC21, but I was reading somewhere that � if you are changing your sponsored company and found same or similar job, then and then you need to file AC21, in my case my sponsored company is still same and ones I got GC, I will start working for them (like future employment).

Your understanding is wrong. 6 years in H1B only considered. They don't count period on L1,L2,H4 etc....
See the link.
USCIS MEMO.

ALSO from A LAWYER'S SITE.
USCIS Memo Time in H4 and L2 Status No Longer Counts Towards H1 or L1 Time - Law Firm Litwin & Associates, A Law Corporation Attorneys South San Francisco, California (http://www.litwinlaw.com/CM/ImportantAnnouncements/USCIS-Memo-Time.asp)
As I understand, the 6 yrs time period includes the time spent on any type of H visa - H1 or H4.

Dallas-Fort Worth Immigration Lawyer Has Just Posted the Following:
For the second time, a federal judge has declared a Farmers Branch ordinance banning illegal immigrants from renting in the city to be unconstitutional. Here are excerpts from a Dallas Morning News (http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/localnews/stories/DN-FBsuit_25met.ART.Central.Edition1.4c77c2c.html) article reporting this decision:
U.S. District Judge Jane Boyle of Dallas ruled Wednesday that the ordinance was an attempt to enforce U.S. immigration laws – something the judge said only the federal government can do.
The judge also issued a permanent injunction to stop Farmers Branch from enforcing Ordinance 2952.
Mayor Tim O'Hare, the driving force behind the ordinances, said he wants to appeal.
"The American people are tired of judges legislating from the bench," he said. "This decision is not unexpected but welcomed, because it allows us to get closer to this ordinance becoming reality."
But O'Hare said the City Council would have to vote on whether to continue a fight that has cost the city nearly $3.2 million since September 2006. And the city may need to spend an additional $623,000 in legal fees in the year ahead, city finance director Charles Cox said Wednesday.
About one-quarter of the estimated 30,000 people who live in Farmers Branch were born outside the United States. About 47 percent of the city's population is Hispanic.
In the past four years, the city has proposed a series of ordinances that would make it illegal for landlords to rent to illegal immigrants. A version approved by the council in 2006 was repealed in early 2007 to make way for another ordinance.
That ordinance, No. 2903, was approved by two-thirds of voters in 2007 but later declared unconstitutional by U.S. District Judge Sam Lindsay. The city abandoned an appeal of that ordinance in favor of Ordinance 2952. No. 2952 added all rental units, including houses, to the ban on renting to illegal immigrants.

Hi All,
My 6th year finishes October 2010. My LC is pending for more than one year. If I transfer my H1B from Company A to Company B, Can I get 7th year extension with Company B based on pending Labor with Company A?
Thanks

I guess I wasn't shocked when I saw this story, but I have to say it depressed me. The AP reports that Derby Line, Vermont and Stanstead, Quebec, really one town that happens to straddle a border, is now installing security gates to physically separate the community.

My friend will come from India on H1B first time to Atlanta Air port this weekend. His H1B was approved for year 2008 and his stamping was done in early 2009. His H1B is from small desi consulting company. What kind of questions he may face? Any inputs will highly appreciated.
One of the most common questions for situation your friend is in is why he waited this long to come to the US after approval of H1B visa. Another question is to show proof of job availability. It is 2 years since a petition was applied for him and a year since he got his visa. Unless he has some very solid answers, there is a possibility that they might deny his entry.
If you say that another position has opened up for which he is coming, then the next question would be if a new LCA was applied for the new position, which would then open up a totally new ball game. I would suggest that you have your friend contact his company lawyer for suggetions, rather than listen to advice given by people here who have not been in such situations.

First of all congratulations to all those who got their approval in the last couple months. Now comes the big dilemma for some of us. Did anyone tried to switch their jobs, or at least, ditch their current employer? Did anyone switched their employer immediately after the green card approval? I am sailing in this boat. I want to switch my employer ASAP, but is hesitating to do so... as you know there are some obvious reasons later. What are other problems that you think other than getting tons of questions during the citizenship? Appreciate your answers. ;)
I've taken quite a few lawyer opinions on this. It is best to stay put for 6 months to a year if you want to play it safe. There's no rule set in stone regarding this. If there is a very compelling opportunity, go for it. If not, just chill a little. If your employer treated you badly because you were on the green card leash, return the favor by playing some games with such employers & enjoy the fun.

I did get an LUD on my approved I-140 which i am not using for Adjustment of status. I have applied I-140 and I-485 concurrently through a different employer. I am really surprised what caused to trigger LUD on that I-140. I am not asking for priority date port either. Interesting.....

Sorry to hear about your upcoming hardship..
I 've had a similar situation recently - where my H1B (with employer A) was about to expire and then another employer (B) had to recruit me, they filed for transfer+extension.
In I129 while filing, they would have to select (cant recall the exact verbiage) new employer (related to transfer) AND extension of current status. Its better to file this kind of petition premium. I got the new approved petition within 2 weeks with new expiry date as +2yrs, with start date earlier than the H1B expiry date (with A).
