Gurus,
I need your expert opinion.
While setting up an appointment through VFS for H1B stamping in Mumbai, I am asked the following question:
Are you applying for the same class of visa which is currently valid or has expired within the past 12 months?
Should I answer Yes or No? I guess the answer is Yes since I have a valid I797 H1 approval. But, I need expert opinions from you guys as well. Here is some background:
I have H1 visa stamp through my old employer "O" (with an expiry of March 2006). I changed employer "X" in Nov 2003. My H1B has also been renewed in Nov 2006 (with "X"). i.e. I have had two valid I797 H1 approval notice with "X" since Nov 2003 - one for change of employment through my current employer from Nov 2003 to Nov 2006 and then a renewal from Nov 2006 to Nov 2009 (this is currently valid). I have not been to India since July 2003.
Please advise what the answer to the questions above. Also, is this visa stamping considered a renewal since my old visa stamp is through my old employer?
Thanks.

Hello everybody,
First of all I must appologize because I mentioned this in the forum before but that was a different question that I asked.
My wife's Labor lists a 4 year degree with a BS in Mechanical Engineering as a requirement.
We filed I-140 with her old H1B evaluation which says she has a 4 year degree in Civil Engineering (stupid me :mad: ).
I found another evaluator who looked closely and gave us an evaluation for BS in Mechanical Engineering because her degree is way closer to the Mechanical than it is to the Civil Eng.
Will USCIS reject this I-140 on the spot based on the fact that she doesn't meet the requirements or issue an RFE ? If they issue an RFE and we send the Mechanical Eng. evaluation, will the fact that we filed first with the Civil Eng evaluation cause any problems ? Are we assuming the worst and is not such a big deal ??
She worked on H1B for 7 years as a Mech Eng and this is NOT a labour substitution.
Thanks for any help !

Folks,
Some people are reporting Name check / FP cleared status with their signatures. How can one find out the status?

Recently, one of my co-worker who was on L1A, requested an extension of his Visa. His employer filed for an L1B instead and did not inform him until after filing it. Now USCIS has sent an RFE. Does anyone know if this can be grounds for rejection of his Visa? Is the employer legally correct in filing a changed Visa category at will without informing the holder? His wife is unable to obtain a driver's license since the Visa approval is pending. Does anyone know if this can be addressed? If so, how?
What is the RFE?
The employer and/or the attorney may have determined the applicant did not qualify for L-1A.

You may as well ask uscis to ask for the remainder of the H1B period provided there is an employer who is willing to process your H1B. Remember, you will have to lose your current I485 processing and start all the way from scratch though you can recapture the priority date with the new GC process.

Thank you Sir,
Do you think if she cancels her interview, she can go to the interview again after sometime, without affecting her future prospects of getting a GC.

Also, I am assuming you mean Silverlight, but remember that "Page" is valid in WPF as well when dealing with the Navigation classes :)

I live in GA. My 485 was filed at NSC and was receipted at CSC and transferred back to NSC.
As per the filing instructions, I will have to file EAD at Texas Service Center.
But some folks told me to file at the location where I-485 is pending.
I have the following questions
a> Where should I file my EAD renewal
b> Is it true, paper based EAD renewal does not require finger printing

I've filed for I129 but I don't yet have my I-797C, Notice of Action form with me. I do have my receipt number and I was wondering if it was possible to find out the service center based on that.
When I check the status of my case online, it does not include any information regarding which service is processing my application.
If your receipt numbers begins with
WAC - CSC service center
EAC - VSC service center
LIN - NSC service center
SRC - TSC service center

Hi, I am currently on my 5th year H-1B visa. I have an option to stay with the same firm and they will help me apply greencard. But I am also considering an opportunity in Bermuda for a 2-3 year program (with the same firm).
My question is if I come back to the US after 2 years, will I be able to apply H-1B visa again? Will it be a whole new H-1B petition/application process subject to the H-1B cap?
Or will it be just another H-1B renewal process following my previous two terms?
Do I need to wait for another two terms of H-1B to expire before starting the greencard process?
Can I ask my currently employer to apply for greencard concurrently while I am working outside the US?
Thanks,
E
