QUESTION::
Can we use automatic revalidation to enter USA without getting our visa's stamped. My h1 expired in 2006 and my spouse�s H4 expired in 2006.
(Remember my spouse is applying for H1 )
ANSWER:: No, with Canadian GC you can not enter USA for long term work, without stamping. I think entry for one month is permitted.
QUESTION:: How safe it is Frequent travel to Canada and back
ANSWER:: It is safe to cross US and Canada border, if you have multiple entry visa.
QUESTION:: How safe it is to stay in Canada for duration of 3-6 months and come back to USA
ANSWER:: As long as you are in H1 B there is no restriction. In future if you enter I-485, there are complications, if you continue to travel back and forth at that time too.
QUESTION:: Once my spouse gets the H1 approved, should he move to H1 immediately or can continue on H4?
ANSWER:: Once the H1 is approved and if the new I-94 is attached at the bottom of the H1 approval, then it means the status from H4 to H1 is transferred. If there is no I-94 then the status will get transferred while you get the visa stamping.
QUESTION:: Stamping of H1 (first stamping for H1 in Canada) after conversion from H4[/QUOTE]
ANSWER:: It is ok to apply for stamping in Canada, because you have a residency there. If there is an issue then US embassy in Canada may ask you to get it stamped in your home country.

Hi,
Thanks for information.
So as you mentioned that you had similar case. Did you have LIN# only or 1-140 receipt ?
Thanks

I dont think there is one (at least legally). However, even if revoked, you may apply for new H1 (without quota bar, if you are within 6 years). The IO may or may not give you a new I94, so you may have to exit the country to get a new visa/I94.
uh? no time period to transfer h1b?? does anyone have a clarification on this point?
i heard it was between 10 days to 2 weeks???

Hi Friends and Administrators,
I have a suggestion. I am sure the administrators here have much better ideas than mine but I would request administrators to please read this suggestion with an open mind. It might be useful for the community.
I am sure we have enough members working for big companies like Microsoft, Google, Yahoo, Intel etc. The past experiences tell us that congress listens to these companies more than us even if we are making a valid point on the legal immigration issues. The irony here is that these companied care for H1 visa expansion not green card quota expansion. These big companies do not realize the benefit of green card quota expansion to them.
Let me prove how. A large proportion of the immigration community is working for small companies as consultants. Their immigration status makes changing jobs very difficult. Now I am sure if the people stuck in GC process get there GC thousands of people will not be forced to work for consultant companies and will look for permanent jobs. And these big companies are sitting on the top of the most desired companies to work for. These thousands of consultants will be more than happy to work for these big companies after they get there GC.
My point here is that if we can have these Companies speak for us, our voices can be heard by congress.
How this can be done: If immigrants working for these companies as consultants or permanent can start a chain of email and send a signed copy with hundred of signatures to the management, management might think of putting these points across to congress.
The contents of this email should be simple and achievable. Like
1. Recapture of unused Visas.
2. Get rid of the country quota. (This one is difficult but very beneficial).
3. Except US graduates form quota. (This one is controversial in IV community, but if US graduates are out of the quota every one is benefited. US graduates will be benefited more, but others will be benefited because there will be less number of people to share the quota. I mention this one because this point can get big support for the universities also, and I am sure congress does not ignore a voice coming form the universities.
About increasing the quota it is difficult and will not help much if the country quota is still exists.
If the email submitted to the management contain thousands of signatures from immigrants working for here company and people who support these immigrants in the company management and people like Bill Gates might talk to the congress to hemp us.
May be it is 2 cents suggestion but I would like the administrators to think out it with a open mind.

If the labor cert has been filed, approved and the I-140 has been filed, I think you can file for an extension of the H1-b. I was advised the same by my attorney, but by the time we filed for the extention, my I-140 was also approved (rather quickly).
You should contact your immigration attorney right away.
But what about extension based on appeal

After a long journey on several non immigrant visa's my GC finally got approved. The questions that I would like to throw out for the group to think on is regarding the period for which one has to keep all the H1/H4 approval notices and supporting documents?
In my case, I have been here for 10 years and have a 15 pound folder that has all the approval notices (I-797) and supporting documents (copies of I-129, transcripts, everything under the sun)
I would hate to have to carry this for the rest of my life.
Lawyers - Your legal opinion would provide relief to my aching shoulders :)
you will need to keep them until you are naturalized. scan them and keep digital copies in a handy location, while you store these originals somewhere in the basement.

Hi Gurus,
I and my wife work for same desi employer A, I am on H1 and wife on EAD, Now I have 2 offers, one with a different client on corp to corp (short term project) , another with a company B on W2 as contract (long term contract to hire and good pay).
I am more interested in accepting B's offer, but not sure on challenges with W2 as contract..is it a risk? What all do I need to be safe?
I am pretty confident that my employer A might not revoke my approved 140 as my wife is working there too.
I am totally confused and feel like on a X road with a close PD that might be current in few months.
Guru's , please advice.

Please let me know if anyone has similar case.
Thanx.

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.

Thanks for the info Morchu. I've just been concerned with the recent emails where USCIS seems to be ignoring the successor-in-interest clause. Also, I'll have to contact my attorney to see if re-filing of I-140 is required. It took 1 year for the first one - just frustrating to think how long it will take if the re-filing is required. I guess I don't have to worry about the retrogression for the 485 stage anytime soon!
