All,
I want to make sure we acknowledge every contribution our members make, monetary and in terms of ideas.
As I said in the main thread (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showpost.php?p=9780&postcount=33) it was posts on the forum by virtual55, jkays94 and cpolisetti that set the WaPo ball rolling.
Thank you to them and every member who does his or her part in big and small ways.
best,

Hi, this is my situation:
- I have L2 Visa, because my husband has L1B Visa. This year, the visa expires and we have 3 new options: extension for L1 and L2 Visa, H1 and H4Visa or Green Card.
- In the other hand, I have my own business. I have and EAD (work permit) and SSN.
Questions:
1. Which of the 3 options do you recommend us to get? Why?
2. I understand that under H4, I am not able to get a work permit. Do I need a work permit to continue doing business by myself? Or it is required even to run my business?
Thanks
Jime
i think you should ask the same question to your lawyer with the same tone. you would get a huge bill seperately for your tone other than charging you for the answer.

Getting our voices heard and getting relief measures passed are not the same thing. Awareness is the first step; legislation (a loooong process BTW) is a possibility only after that. The lawmkers and media were not even aware of our problems thus far .. they went by the maxim (immigration = illegal aliens) and (legal immigration = H1B visa increase).You must recognize that it takes time to rid them of that mentality.
For all their herculean efforts, we are by no means all-powerful.The core team does the best it can under the circumstances. Witness the managers amendments in CIR .. the bill failed for reasons beyond our control, but isnt that evidence enough of what we can achieve ?
Also remember this is election time .. politicians will obviously worry first and foremost about their re-election. Going by your yardstick, the much much mightier tech,healthcare and agribusiness industry lobbies have all failed to get any relief measures passed for themselves.
Getting favorable legislation enacted is a prolonged process where a lot of patience is called for. We are all in a hole, and IV is our only bet to get out of it. Please have faith and continue contributing to our cause.
I was hoping something out of IV's effort that SKILL bill be passed before end this year but it appears this organization's voices are not even heard nor included in the picture.

Hi All,
Now there are 3 possibilities for "alien receipt number" that is supposed
to be written behind my photos to be included with I-485:
-1- the filed i-140 receipt number
-2- a number that appears in i-140 approved letter
-3- the A# from my F1-OPT-EAD (this is called "alien registration number for sure")
Any more clarifications on which one of the above three is actually "alien receipt number"?
Thank you so much!

You can amend the same petition. Tell your company to contact a lawyer to do that. They need to pay $200 fee and lawyer fee. May be needed new LCA for latest salary requirement. With the amended approval, you can stamp for the visa.
You can say studies (advanced) or sick (family or you ) as the reasons for not take up the position.
Thanks for the advice on that.
Could you let me know if "recession and the lack of jobs in US" would be a good enough reason to delay the stamping ? Apparently the job offer on which the visa was applied in 2007 dried out in 2008 and can that be stated or would the embassy question if the job offer was not a stable one , why did one apply for the visa ?
Also could you let me know what is an amended petition with new start date and new salary offer.Would this be the same as a new petition or would this be faster and cheaper than a new petition.Pls let me know
Thanks
Alex

Reading your post, it seems that it is better for me to do nothing (option A).
talk to an attorney.
I have a similar problem with 2 485s, one as primary, one as dependent. The PDs are 18 months apart, and both are not going to be current in August. Had ending up filing both in the July fiasco because both attorneys were dillydallying on filing and we were hoping atleast one gets through, now both did.
My attorney is now advising me NOT to withdraw one on my own, because USCIS in its own confusion might end up withdrawing BOTH petitions. This also happened to someone recently on the forum (I-140 in one case got denied, and all four 485s were denied, without USCIS realizing that 2 were tied to another I-140 which is still around). He believes we will either get an approval outright and the second petition will be automatically nullified, or we'll get an RFE.

THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH FOR PRECISE REPLY BUEHLER but am I not within my legal right to work for any hospital branch because they are all with one name.
My final question would be YES I was told that I will have a new ID and new payroll number and a separate paycheck but what can be done to rectify this situation. Like do they have to amend the H1B petition(mine is a non-cap hospital--- a charity hospital).
My H1B stipulates that I am a full-timer with 40 hrs per week but starting from next week it is going to be 32 sometimes and 40 hrs some weeks as we are not seeing many patients into our hospital due to the economy,jobs etc.
What is the solution. Do I have to move to a different job or can there be a solution to work for the same company (in different branches)
First assume that you are talking about the same company, so that you get one paycheck, one W2, etc.
Your H1-B job must match what is specified in LCA. In particular, LCA is location specific. If you work in a different location (and no longer work in the old location), you need a different (ameded) LCA. If you want to work in two locations, you need to file an amended LCA that lists both locations.
Now, if the two "branches" are different entities (i.e., you are going to receive different paychecks, W2's etc.), you need two H1-B's. File a second "concurrent" H1-B for the second position, and you will be good. The concurrent H1-B will be cap-exempt.

Any specifics on the interview? Were you asked any documents to submit? Was the interview for both the applicant and the dependent?
SoP
Yes, I had been provided a standard list of documents to come prepared with. Some of them included:
1. All EAD's APs's
2. I 94
3. Tax returns last 3 years
4. If I have changed employers ac21, and paystubs( in my case I did, so I took copies of Ac21 EVL and recent paystubs)
5. Passport
6. Drivers license
7. All H1b's
8. Marriage certificate
There were other items in the list, but were not relevant to my case.
My ( and my wife's) interview happened July 30th in chicago at 8 am . I was asked to take an oath, and asked for some of the above documents one by one specially 4, and 1, 6 and 8. The IO had my complete file, and asked confirmatory questions on the information that I had provided in I485 form. It was a pleasant experience, and since my dates were not current then, he asked me to wait until it becomes current. Since I had 2 I 140's attached to my ac21 eVL , I reiterated that my case has been current in the past and I am EB2 and he was initially surprised, because he had not checked that I had a second I140, and said that he will make a special notation on my case that it was Eb2 and not Eb3 as was mentioned on the comments on the first page on the file( my gosh!!that was an eye opener inspite of my having provided all the right papers, and inspite of being together in a single file that they had right in front of me, the notation on the top still considered me as Eb3). My wife, who is a dependent on my case was asked same questions one by one. It took less than 30 minutes for both of us.
So, I am keeping my fingers crossed for Sept..........and I would like to think of myself as preadjuciated:) I received a soft LUD the very next day with no status change.
hope that answers all your questions

USCIS has updated the processing dates pages of all the four service centers on September 28. Now the pages say that these dates are valid as of July 31, 2008 only.
If I remember well the processing dates information was more up-to-date earlier.
So looks like CIS has backtracked from their earlier published dates. They are telling us that they simply cannot tell what the current processing dates are. All they can tell us is that what applications they were processing on July 31.
What can we deduce from this? Is it good? Is it bad? Or no relevance?
It could be good as CIS might be processing July 2007 485 applications as of today? Or may be not.
Simply more confusion, as if as it is we were not confused enough.

DOL Proposed Legislation for Labor Certification
In an attempt to clamp down on fraud in the labor certification application process, the Department of Labor (�DOL�) has proposed regulations, which would impact both pre-PERM and PERM filings. The proposal includes requiring employers to pay for all costs and fees associated with a labor certification application. The penalties for violating this proposal include denial of the labor certification, revocation, debarment, or any combination. Debarment means an employer can not file a labor certification application for up to three years.
A labor certification application would also have a limited validity period. Currently a labor certification application is valid without limitation unless it is revoked or withdrawn. Under the proposed regulations, an employer must file an immigrant petition with the CIS within 45 days of the labor certification application approval. For applications which have already been certified, an employer must file within 45 days of the enactment of final rule implementing the regulations. If the labor certification application is not filed within this timeframe, it will expire and can not be used to support an immigrant petition.
The proposed regulations also prohibit substitution. Substitution occurs when an employer has an approved labor certification application, but the individual that was originally listed in the labor certification application is no longer being sponsored. An employer could �substitute� a new employee into the labor certification application if the new employee met the minimum requirements listed in the labor certification application at the time the application was initially filed. Concerned that substitution encouraged fraud, DOL proposes to eliminate substitution.
Finally, the proposed rule prohibits a labor certification application to be sold, bartered or purchased. If an individual or entity is found to have engaged in this kind of transaction, the labor certification application can be denied, revoked, debarment, or any combination.

I have decided to go for the SB-600 rather than the 800 because I don't think I need the extra functions at this point. It will save on $$$ and weight too.
Thanks,
Shawn
Good choice.
You also have faster recharge since the flash is slightly less powerful but perfectly adequate... I was going to get an SB-800 but ended up with two SB-600s for now for the same price.
I will likely get one SB-800 (and maybe another SB-600) when I get my D2x so that I have commander mode available.
the two SB-600s I have have been great for the month I've had them - if your only body is a D70 you're golden - you can use the sb-5B-600 on remote and use the built in D70 flash as commander.
