Yes, a friend of mine was not given her VISA they did not say denial instead said they needed to further confirm her qualifiactions and field of research. This is bc she works in boitech and at that point there was the anthrax scare.
Hi,
Has an non muslim Indian passport holder been denied H1 visa in Canada due to security check ?
I have US degree and I also have done stamping in Canada once before - what are the chances of getting stuck ?
Thanks

I have heard this from a couple of my friends who used AP recently to enter the US. The Immigration officer at the POE told them that their AP is now valid from the date it was first stamped. IOW he now has a full additional year to use the AP for travel.
However, I cannot find this documented anywhere on the USCIS site. My AP was issued in Sept 2008 and is valid till Sept 2009 and I used it to return back from India in Dec 2008. However, I plan to renew my AP 120 days before its original expiry date UNLESS a clear rule gets published clearly mentioning that it is valid for a whole extra year following the first use of the AP document.

I dont think so since someone is doing premium processing, the chances of getting RFE are more. Rather i read in other posts that we should go for Premium processing as it is faster and we come to know the result of the case quickly rather that awaiting for weeks/months.

Gurus,
I work for company X and in my 9th year H1-B visa. X has filed for my Eb-3 labor and I-140 and I am currently AOS (July 07 filer) on my I-485. X recently extended my H1 through Oct 2012.
I have an offer from company Y. Company Y is asking me if I want H1 extension or H1 transfer? What should I answer them. Which one ensures that I have a 3 year extension. Please advise ASAP.
Thanks.

I had my H1b till Nov 16, 2010 with Company1
Company2 applied for H1b transfer and it was approved as of Nov 08, 2010 ( but we didn't get any notification about it it's approval until few weeks later)
Company1 filed for H1b extension on Nov 10, 2010
I properly resigned Company1 on Nov 30, 2010 and started working with Company2 on Dec 1, 2010
Somehow Company1 didn't terminate my H1b extension and it got approved as of Jan 18, 2011.
1) Which status am I in? What decides my status?
2) Can I continue working for Company2 without any problems? Has this new approval put my transfer in jeopardy?
3) Do I need to update Company2 about Company1's extension approval?
4) Do I need to leave the Country to do any stamping?
Please help!!
You can have multiple H1B visas at a time ...no problem..... both your H1B's are valid
you can work for both employers at a time if you can :)
Thanks

Hi,
I am on Adv-Parole (with EAD) and planning to visit India in July 2010.
I know that UK and France require transit visa, but I was wondering whether I can fly via KLM (Amsterdam) OR Lufthansa (Frankfurt) without any transit visa ?
Will appreciate the response.
Thanks,
Venu.
Hi Venu,
I can say with certainity that transit visa is not required for return through Amsterdam on AP. This year 2010, was my second travel through Amsterdam with AP and the port officials really respected the document and treated me very well.

Hi sbmallik ,
Thanks for your reply. what's the continuous employment criteria? Is the reason my attorney enter '5/17' instead of '5/15'?
I have a letter from HR and saying the last day at my previous company was '5/15'. very boring!!!!
I will fell more comfortable if the experience letter mentions the last day as 5/17/2009. Otherwise I will simply mention it as April 2009. This way the continuous employment criteria will be met.

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.

I received an RFE for my EAD renewal.
It says "Please submit proof that you have filed an I-485 Application"
I have a copy of my receipt of I-485. Would that be enough to send? Why would they ask for proof of I-485? This is my second EAD renewal.
Please let me know.
Thanks.

I would also suggest that you post messages in all college/university/school cantenes and other such visible places where students gather. I have donated blood many times (>10 times) when a student and I am sure that you will find many students who are willing to help.
I have also helped organize blood donation camps and such when a student. In fact I am was trained volunteer - for whatever value 4 days of classroom training have. I'd suggest that you should avoid the "professional"/"regular" donors - as many of them would be drug addicts and "donate" blood for drug money. Schools and colleges are good places to avoid that crowd and still get a large number of prople willing to donate blood.

Hi,
My wife is going to apply for both H4 and H1 visa. Since marriage is in March end, she will come to US on H4 visa. Her H1 visa will be applied as if she were in India. Now her I94 will say H4. Once she gets her H1B, she will have to go out of country to get new I94.
We can go to Mexico to get it stamped and hence get new I94. If for some reason, H1B is rejected, can she still enter the US on H4 visa?
Thanx,
