My cousin has I-20's from Universities A and B.he got F1 Visa with University A's I-20.
He is in India and he wants to go to University B.
Could anybody tell if he can directly go to University B and complete the transfer process from there? or does he need to go to University A, complete the transfer process and then go to University B?
does it create any problems at Port of Entry ?
PS: I have not started GC process yet. So, I didn't update my profile.
I believe you coud've done that before the introduction of the SEVIS system. Now you will have to first report to the university that you got the visa for, and then fill out a new SEVIS form and then change to another university.

You can try filing a FOIA request with USCIS and ask them to give yo information. It will take lot of time though. Immigrationvoice filed FOIA request last year and now USCIS shows all EB data to everyone.

Request for Change of Status means that you are physically present in US and requesting a change in your immigration status, in your case from F1 to H1. However if you leave the country when COS is pending, your COS application is considered abandoned as it is assumed that you'll re-enter using the status that you desire.
Hence your H1 is approved, COS to H1 is denied and you were properly admitted under F1 status on your return. You are legally maintaining F1 status until your OPT expires (+ any grace period mentioned in your I-20).
Here are your options:
1. Again apply for COS to H1 (not sure if this is possible, check with your lawyer)
2. Leave the country before F1 status expires and then re-enter on H1 visa. For getting H1 visa you don't necessarily have to go to home country, it is possible to get it done in Mexico/Canada.

My 6 year H1 term expired in Jan 2010 (not applied for extension yet). I live in IL.
I took the motorcycle training class and passed. Now, I have to go to the DMV to get the license. My existing 4 wheeler license is valid upto 2011. Will I get my motorcyle license only till 2010 (end of H1)?
Anyone knows how this works?

First, if at all possible, your employer should appeal the denial of the I-140. There have been a series of AAO cases on the issue of educational equivalency, and it may be possible to have the denial reversed on appeal. Even if the appeal is eventually denied, your eligibility for one year H-1 extensions after 6 years will be preserved as long as the appeal is pending.
At the same time, you should begin a new PERM application immediately to insure that it is successfully filed before August. You and your employer should consult with and retain an immigration attorney
who has expertise in structuring PERM applications in situations such as yours. If you are unsure whether to rely on the advice of the company's new attorney, you should consider an extended consultation with an attorney in whom you have confidence. If that attorney does not agree with the course of action recommended by the company's attorney, you could request a detailed opinion letter to help guide your company and its lawyer in structuring your case successfully.

I know this is irrelevant in a way but see it from a different angle for one moment. There is no other forum where you can get any information about these H1 employers who are playing games using retrogression. This is the only forum where most of the people on H1 are related to some desi consulting company and can share their experiences which would help other people who are in huge pain due to the unfair practices of their existing employers.
I would recommend the administrators to create a separate area on this forum where people can share these experiences and find genuine employers.
Not in this forum I would argue. There are other places.

The application procedures vary based on the consulate you are planning to visit for visa stamping.
so which consulate you are planning to visit to get visa stamping? no need for emergency appointment if you are planning to get it done in india.
in india, from October 2006 things are changed, you can get appointment easily, even now there are dates available in december (also in november). if you book now, you can get appointment in december.
check VFS sites. if you have any questions about the eliglibity, contact VFS numbers or send email from the following page:
https://www.vfs-usa.co.in/ApplnForms/RulesAndFees/CustomerFeedback.aspx
also you can check appointment dates at one of the indian consulates at the following page and at the bottom of the page, click the link 'Click here for an estimate of current availability of visa interview appointments':
https://www.vfs-usa.co.in/Home.aspx
To book appointment in VFS site, you need HDFC receipts from HDFC bank branch for each of the applicants, so for procedure, check fees and forms link in this VFS site.
At the beginning, the principal applicant can create one application with his/her hdfc receipt number with other reqd details and later can add their dependents at later stage of application. You can fill other DS-156/157 forms here.
good luck!!!!
Disclaimer:
I'm not an immigration attroney, so consult one for your situations as laws/procedures keep changing.
Hello All - I understand from the website that the people already working in the US qualify for an emergency appointment if they are returning back to work in the US. Does anyone if this rule is also applicable it is the first time you are getting a H1-B visa stamp? I got a COS and am planning to get a stamp in December. I know that more dates are available now .. but was wondering if the need arises will I eligible for emergency appointment?
Thanks!

Hi,
I have applied my I-485 (EB3, PD - 2004 Feb) last week. Planning to file EB2 PERM with the same employer next week for porting the EB3 dates. My doubts are
1) Can we file an interim application at I-485 stage for porting the EB3 priority date for EB2, rather than filing a second I-485?
2) After the EB2 I-140 approval, do we need to wait for my priority dates to become current for submitting the interim application for EB2 I-485?
3) I am doing this for getting the GC comparitively earlier. But is there any issues/threats for doing like this?
Gurus, please comment the pros and cons of this.

Just wondering if anybody is giving up hopes of GC and switching from H1B to E3D (Dependent of Australian spouse) to take advantage of 2-yr renewable EADs...? How long does it take to get the initial EAD...Continue working without pay (or is there a workaround) while waiting for EAD?....any problems getting visa stamped with a 'yes' for past immigrant petition filed...
7yrs in this country...EB2 PD of 10/07 due to job changes..no 140 yet, no 485...6yrs in same job? no promotions? with 3yr extensions...frustration beyond words...E3D seems to a ray of hope but no idea of complications involved.
Yeah its frustrating everyone waiting for a GC .. I think doing something is better than nothing. Go with your spouse. Who knows things might take a turn for the better.

I need help.My EAD has finally been approved and so has my I-140. I am now working for the petioning company but the pay checks are made out by a payroll company hired by petioning company to manage their staffs paychecks but their is no mention of the pertioning company on the paycheck I receive.. Can this be a problem if I should receive a RFE in the future for the still pending I-485 or eventually when I apply for citizenship?:confused:

In the last days, I have realized that we have something in common with the first Pilgrims that came to America, we also have a lot in common with all the immigrants that arrived last century to the Ellis Island, and that is the same COURAGE and values to go after our dreams giving the best of ourselves for this country and for our families.
Based on what we did this last month dont you think that we need to take action to do something to make possible an increase on the GCs quota?.
I'd like to use this forum to generate all together as a team great Ideas to show that we are a positive agent of succes for America. The idea of the flowers was marvelous but I think is time to move forward, some new ideas could be:
- Pay a TV commercial showing that we (America) need diversity, need talented Immmigrants to maintain their leadership in the world.
- Post ads in the news papers (WSJ, NY times, Washington Post etc) with the same message.
- I read the blog of Greg Siskind he is doing something great mentioning oustanding immigrants on daily basis, why dont we do the same?
- Attend all senator meetings and speech and have smart and pacific members of IV in all of them showing the message?
I THINK WE CAN DO IT, we are the owners of our future, we are the only really interested in have our GCs, I dont see the USCIS, Lou Dobbs, or USANET interested in see something positive about us.
Please lest post our ideas, and together as a team as the new America immigrants lets look for our future. America is the land where everything is possible I DO BELIEVE IN AMERICA SAME AS THE PILGRIMS AND I THINK YOU ALL BELIEVE THE SAME THATS WHY WE ARE HERE AND why WE READ THIS FORUM...
Please we need ideas.... LETS MOVE FORWARD WE CAN DO IT........

Hi Sir,
I have a question regarding H1B transfer and should I go premium processing or not?
Here is my case:
I was laid of from Company A (not consulting) last week. I have all my past pay stubs. That was total shock to me and got me off-guard.. It took me few days to find a consulting company B which is willing to transfer my H1B.
As any big company, A is quite prompt in sending revoke letter so I would assume they would be already doing it by now. Company B will be sending transfer papers tomorrow(Friday) or Monday.
My question is should I go with Premium Processing or not? I just dont want to take any risk where USCIS denies my case. Is premium processing going to help me here or not.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards.
Dont you think the PP will give you much faster results, peace of mind and you don’t have to wait anxiously for months...

Has anyone been in the same situation where applying for a private student loan has been denied since the 797/EAD expires before the course is complete.

Since it is a not for profit i will fall under the quota.
She can transfer to other not for profits. Transferring to other for profit companies is challenging as it has to be under the quota.
Thanks
