Hi,
I am a B. Com, M. Com (1 yr) and CA from India, CPA (USA) with more than 12 yrs exp in accounting industry, including 7 yrs of post qualification (after CA) exp. - But even after all these qualifications, I was suggested by a leading law firm that I will not qualify under EB2 :mad: :mad: !!!!
If the position required a bachelors degree then you have problem !!!! What he (lawyers asst) said that you either need 4 yrs single degree or 3+3 yrs degree to qualify for EB2. He specifically said that 3+2 yrs degrees or 3+1 yrs (as in my case) does not qualify for EB2.
I have not yet filed GC yet though.
Hope this helps.....

From Immi-Law:
06/27/2007: SPECIAL ALERT: I-485 Cap for FY 2007 Can Be Exhausted Before End of July? Then What Will Happen?
According to the AILA, approximately 40,000 visas remain in all employment-based categories, other than EW, for FY2007, according to its sources, and that the USCIS has far more than 40,000 adjustment applications in the backlog queue that are ready for approval, not to mention the additional numbers which will be consumed in concular immigrant visa processing. It is thus possible that the cap may reach within a short period in July, even though no one can predict it until after July 2, 2007. The USCIS at this time does not have any policy announced with reference to July 2007 I-485 filings which are filed after certain date in July when the total number is exhausted. However, considering the fact that the USCIS currently rejects the "Other Worker" category I-485 applications even though June 2007 Visa Bulletin show current for certain applicants because the "other worker" category quota was exhausted on June 5, 2007. This raises a serious concern because as we reported earlier today, the USCIS appears to be picking up the speed of processing of backlog I-485 applications in anticipation of flood of July 485 applications. The USCIS hands may be tied, should the EB visa numbers for FY 2007 is exhausted before the end of July.

Hello Bpositive,
I am in the same situation as you are and have been for about 2 and a half months. I got a yellow slip and still awaiting feedback from the Consulate who in turn is awaiting a response from Washington.
It depends on when you left the US and if you received your AP before your left the US.
There was a letter published on November 1, 2007 which can be found here
http://www.uscis.gov/files/pressrelease/HandLFinalRule110107.pdf)
If you received the AP before you left the US then there is no risk in returning on the AP from what I have been told but if you did not receive it before you left the US then there is a risk of you entire AOS process being cancelled and this all depends on the officer and the situation at the POE.
Unfortunately in my case I didnt receive my AP until after I left the US and am awaiting feeback from my lawyer regarding the rule in the link.
Let me know if you find any other information
as it would help me as well.
Please..request that only those with personal experience with this respond. I have to decide in the next hour or so and have lawyer opinions already.
Has anyone gone through this?
My H1 is pending 221g admin process (Pink. possibly because I have a Phd in biology) I can't wait much longer as I may risk losing my job. Can I travel on my valid AP? I am not concerned about keeping my H1 status etc. My only concern is at port of entry. Lawyers have told me it is ok, but I would like to hear from people who have done this themselves.

Thanks for the reply.
No, my new would be employer will not be doing H1 transfer for me. They will take the EAD route. Yes, I know the start and end date of EAD as that is printed in the approval letter.
So, I guess, although I don't have the plastic card in hand, I can start processing AC21 on the basis of EAD approval notice and A#, that gives me 90 more days.
I will read I 9 more carefully with time. Also started upgrading profile.

I�m confused about using the EAD. Someone please clarify me�.
I already received the EAD for me and my wife. Currently, I�m in the H1b which is expiring on Sep 2008 (6 years are over). My questions are?
�Can I be in H1b and still work another job as a part-time?
�If my wife wants to work using her EAD does it have any effect on her h4 status?
�If my wife loose her job during the use of her EAD what will be her status?
�I applied my I485 in July 2, 2007. As I already received my EAD, can I be unemployed after 180 days and start a business by myself?
�I know after receiving the AP I visit any their country. What will be my status after I come back? Still H1b or anything else?
It will be very much appreciated if some can answer my questions?
Thanks ahead

Hi,
I changed employer in 2010 so my wife got new H4 valid until 03/2013 ( I-94 valid until 03/2013). She traveled to India last year and while returning she did not show her new H4 approval to immigration office so got I-94 until 08/2011 (old H4 was stamped until 08/2011).
My question is does she need to file I-539 for I-94 extension? If yes, process is similar like any other(B1, B2) extension? I appreciate any kind of help.
Thanks,
Venkat.
You might want to try CBP deferred inspection. For further details, go through the link below:
U.S. Customs and Border Protection - Contacts (http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/toolbox/contacts/deferred_inspection/)
Talk to any CBP site at nearby International Airport, and tell them that "while entering I've submitted all the documents, but the I-94 was given based on the old petition".
If one site denies, then try another site. Otherwise, you need to submit the application to USCIS to extend the I-94.

Hi,
I was on regular H1B for three years until mid 2008 when I changed to H4 status. Now, if I want to work for a non-profit organization, does the org have to just transfer the original H1B or file a new non-profit petition. If it is the latter (new petition) what happens to my original H1 approval? If I want to go back to the for-profit world do I need to apply for a new H1 or will my original H1 validity continue??
Thanks
AFP
You can apply for change of status (COS) from H4 to H1 at any time of the year, if your employer is cap exempt (non-profit) and you have not completed 6 years of maximum stay on H1B/L1. You will not be counted again in cap, so you can return to for-profit employer at any time provided you have not completed 6 years of maximum stay in H1/L1. In order to stay on H1 beyond 6 years, you need to have a labor pending for more than 365 days or 140 approved.
Hope this helps and please fill your profile

Generally, adjustment of status applicants must obtain Advance Parole (Form I -131, Application for
Travel Document) from USCIS prior to leaving the United States or else their applications are
deemed abandoned. H-1 and L-1 nonimmigrants (and their H-4 or L-2 dependents) are now exempt
from this requirement. Previously, they were required to present a receipt for their adjustment
application at the time of readmission to the United States following foreign travel. This final rule
eliminates the unnecessary burden of presenting this receipt since the application information in the
receipt is in USCIS databases available to immigration inspectors and adjudicators.
