I am planning on getting my H1 done for this year... i have talked to a couple of people about the same and someone said thai i might have Pay to get my H1 Processed and get the job.... is it a right choice to make....
most of the H1's consultant i have come across does only ITsector
is there anyone who can suggest how to get the H1 for other field like Pharmacy, Microbiology.....etc....
Most of the consultants ask you to pay for the H1's these days for security. Some will re-imburse your money after a period.
But according to the law, employers are supposed to pay for H1 and travelling expenses if you are in your home country.

This is standard message when USCIS receives an RFE response. I had the same message when USCIS received my I140 rfe response.

I entered on a H4 on my New Zealand passport and it is valid 2010. I now have a H1B ie a I-797A and a new I-94 that is also valid till 2010. I'm leaving the country for the first time to go to Australia.
Do I need to get a new visa stamp for my passport?
If you want to enter US as an H1-B, you will need an H1-B visa stamp on your passport.
If I need to get a new visa stamp, do I need to go back to New Zealand or can I do it in other countries?
You can do that from any consulate. However, note that there is a possibility that the IO will need a so-called "security check" which takes 2-3 months (and sometimes, years). In that case, you will be stuck outside US (you cannot get back to US while the security check is pending). So it is advisable to go to a country where you have a place to stay for a long time, if needed. For most people, it is their home country. Also the chances of getting a security check is higher if you go to a consulate other than the consulate in your home country.
Can I travel with my passport which shows the H4 visa and carry with me my I-797A and new I-94 to re-enter the country?
Thanks
You can, but then your status will be H4 and you will not be able to work. The principle is that your status is determined by the latest I-94 you receive. To work on H1-B, your latest I-94 (the one you got it while entering US or as attached with the I-797 form) must be for H1-B (the visa status is written on the I-94).

Thank you very much. This makes it very clear.
Unless otherwise you invoke her H1, she will be in H4 even if H1 is approved today. Invoking means, going to home country and getting it stamped or start working for a company and getting paid via paystub and having SSN

Murali,
Your India visit should not affect your gc. I know of several people who have gone out of the country after filing 485 (even without getting receipt). In one scenario, someone's application reached on 2nd and left the country on 3rd (with lawyer's approval). Ideally, you should wait for EAD/AP but according to my lawyer, it is ok to go out as long as you have a valid H1 stamp which allows you to reenter.
The only thing I can think of that can be impacted is your fingerprinting. If you get a notice while you are gone and don't return before the due date, your case will be considered abandoned (it is noted on the fingerprint receipt). To avoid this, inform your lawyer when you leave. They too get a copy of fingerprinting notice and can get it postponed for you if you are out of the country. Also make sure your mail is picked up regularly just in case USCIS tries to mail you some letter/EAD.
As always, check with your lawyer to get final opinion as your case is best known to him/her only.
My 2 cents, hope it helps.

Hi
Just now I noticed my previous H1 renewal papers,In that My first H1 expired on Feb 20 2002. My previous employer applied the extension and got the approval but Receipt date on that application was Feb 26 2002, (Six days after the first H1 expired date) and got approved in Jun 2002 .Is it a problem,I never went outside US after I came here.Now I am in AOS status....

WASHINGTON�"U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced
today that it has received a sufficient number of H-1B petitions to
reach the statutory cap for fiscal year (FY) 2011.� USCIS is notifying
the public that yesterday, Jan. 26, 2011, is the final receipt date
for new H-1B specialty occupation petitions requesting an employment
start date in FY2011.
The final receipt date is the date on which USCIS determines that it
has received enough cap-subject petitions to reach the limit of
65,000.� Properly filed cases will be considered received on the date
that USCIS physically receives the petition; not the date that the
petition was postmarked.� USCIS will reject cap-subject petitions for
new H-1B specialty occupation workers seeking an employment start date
in FY2011 that arrive after Jan. 26, 2011.
USCIS will apply a computer-generated random selection process to all
petitions that are subject to the cap and were received on Jan. 26,
2011. USCIS will use this process to select petitions needed to meet
the cap.� USCIS will reject all remaining cap-subject petitions not
randomly selected and will return the accompanying fee.
On Dec. 22, 2010, USCIS had also received more than 20,000 H-1B
petitions filed on behalf of persons exempt from the cap under the
‘advanced degree’ exemption. USCIS will continue to accept and process
petitions that are otherwise exempt from the cap.� Pursuant to the
Immigration and Nationality Act, petitions filed on behalf of current
H-1B workers who have been counted previously against the cap will not
be counted towards the congressionally-mandated FY2011 H-1B cap.
Accordingly, USCIS will continue to accept and process petitions filed
to:
extend the amount of time a current H-1B worker may remain in the U.S.;
change the terms of employment for current H-1B workers;
allow current H-1B workers to change employers; and
allow current H-1B workers to work concurrently in a second H-1B position.
U.S. businesses use the H-1B program to employ foreign workers in
specialty occupations that require theoretical or technical expertise
in specialized fields such as scientists, engineers, or computer
programmers.

Not too shabby for your first attempts. You do need to use a smaller aperture, though. For example, on your shots of the mixing boards, guitar and railing (the one with all the circles), if you had used f/16 or f/22 instead of say f/5.6 you would have gotten a lot more "depth", ie: more stuff in focus, to the shots. This isn't to say that you always want everything in focus but sometimes you do.
Don't forget that the trick to using smaller apertures for maximum depth of field is to focus on the object (or point of an object) that is closest to the camera....everything else behind it will be in focus (even though it won't look that way when taking the shot.

HI Folks
The reason for this post is as usual- too much confusion and no clear answers. i read on oh law firm that if you are not in a non-immigrant status i.e are working on EAD, there should be no gap in your EAD while you are working. Meanin you should stop working if your current EAD expires and your new EAD is pending- otherwise its a violation of law and provisions of 245 do not protect you because technically you are NOT a non-immigrant.
Is that true?????
Now, i recently had to go to India for an emergency, and had to come back on AP- did not have time to get my H1b visa stamped. I asked at the immigration counter if my H1b is invalidated and he told me it is. I spoke to my lawyer and she told me if you resume your H1b employment with the same employer- you are back in status- i kinda did not buy that though.
Can someone please shed light. My concern is that my EAD is expired- new one is pinding. Although i was on h1b when i left for India, but came back using AP. Am i breaking a law by working??
thanks

I have finished my 1st MS and was doing my 2nd MS
In fall semester I applied for all online courses and when it was the time of exam I had to leave to India as my Grandfather was very sick.
I was in lot of pressure as I was very close to them so I left. Before leaving I did asked the admission officer in university and she told that I will get all F grades and I can take same courses again in Next semester.
I was ready to do that. So I left USA and came back in January. 2 days before I received a letter from university that I have been dropped off. I was shocked and tried contacting the admission officer. She told me that they can reinstate now for my F1 visa and thats the only way.
I want to know if these is the only way or if there is some other way to get back in status. I dont want to leave country and come back to get reinstatated as I think its too risky.
What are the chances of reinstatement if I have clean history as well as no work records from the time I entered in USA. I have been student from last 4 years from the time I entered USA.
I do want to apply for visitor visa in future. HOw will these situation affect that

If you are in the process of applying for H1 through another employer, you may be safe. As with everything USCIS, H1 revocation takes couple of months before it is approved. So in the interim you may get your new H1 approved before the previous employer's revocation sails through.

Your questions are valid....but either way, you must enter US ASAP on your AP (or have someone mail ytou your GC). The issue is that you are NOT totally free once you get GC because immediately leaving your sponsoring employer is a no-no and can cause your GC to be revoked or be an issue at the time of citizenship. It is advisable to stick to the employer for 6mts to 1 year after GC - if the employer is still functioning. Also, USCIS has increased employment place visits for recent GC approvals. :)
Thanks for your answer!^^

It does. MS = BS + 5yrs experience per the general guideline principles followed by CIS/companies. My EB2 was applied when I had around 1yrs exp after MS. Imp thing is that the job for which your LC is being filed should have EB2 requirement. Make sure of that. Otherwise, even if a PhD candidate is employed for a layman job, it's doesn't warrant EB1. the driving factor is the job's requirement.

Hello all,
I have my EAD and waiting on my 485 to get approved sometime this year (hopefully).
I'm obvoiusly working full-time for my current employer and I just got an opportunity to do some translation services (teaching) after hours for about 80hrs in the next couple of months.
Is it ok for me to teach or do the rules of H1B (work up to 40hrs a week) still apply?
Thank you.
