I moved to a new company and yet to receive my I-797 approved from INS. My old company visa is valid till May 2010. If they have not revoked it can i still travel out of country and come back?
What will they ask me in port of entry?
Thanks
You will show your stamping from old Company and H1 approval from the new company. POE will issue you a I-94 with expiry date from the New company H1 approval.
But if you are travelling with spouse on the H4 he/she will get I-94 according to his/her passport stamping. So may have renew earlier then you.

IV, you guys are doing it.....
I know for sure that Shusterman is one of the reputed Lawyer's... Its good to see people like him spending some time in this forum.
Also, if this is Mr.Shusterman himself participating in this forum or a member of his team participating. Can you throw some light into EB Immigration in the current CIR. What is that the EB folks can expect?

I need to clarify if you are working for employer A for say BS+7 yrs and want to apply GC through Employer A then the 7 yrs exp is not counted against experience ( very rare cases it can be considered if the new position is completely different)
IF you are processing your GC for future employment with say Employer B then the 7 yrs is counted.
Did that clarify your doubt
Thanks for the clarification.

Actually, you can file 485 when your PD becomes current, even if the 140 is still pending approval. You need to submit the 140 details alongwith your 484 application.
Is it possible for someone to post a link to the same. I have tried looking and found nothing.

It is very late to be submitting the RFE response now. CIS will probably deny the H-1B and your employer will need to refile. The employer should have asked for an extension before the due date.

The H-2B program is critically important for many businesses that have difficulty finding U.S. workers to fill temporary jobs. This is particularly true in seasonal industries. Comments from H-2B employers attest to the need for foreign workers in physically demanding seasonal jobs, often in remote locations, that many U.S. workers will not take.
The H-2B nonimmigrant visa (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137785.html) program permits employers to hire foreign workers to come to the U.S. and perform temporary nonagricultural work, which may be one-time, seasonal, peak load or intermittent and there are no qualified and willing U.S. workers available for the job. Note that this visa is not available for "temporary" agencies or other work placement agencies.
In order to learn more about employers� perceptions of the H-2B program, ImmigrationWorks USA and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce conducted a survey: five short questions distributed among H-2B employers in July and August 2010. The survey asked how many H-2B workers the company had hired in the last three years and what types of jobs those workers held. It included two open-ended questions about the benefits of using the program and asked what if any problems employers had experienced.
Another open-ended question asked what employers would do if they were not able to hire H-2B workers. Participation was voluntary, and results could be submitted via email, fax or the internet. A total of 367 employers responded. The majority of H-2B employers who responded to the survey noted that temporary foreign workers are reliable and hard-working. Many also praised these workers� productivity: a benefit that offsets the cost of bringing them into the United States. Respondents appreciated that H-2B workers were willing to work seasonal jobs and then return home when the season ended.
Important benefit of the program is that it offers companies a way to hire foreign workers when U.S. labor markets tighten. The program increases labor market flexibility by allowing businesses to bring in foreign workers when U.S. workers move up to better, higher-paying jobs during economic expansions.

If you go for a permanent position, drug test & background checks are very common and also the process is very simple. Also it depends on the type of sector, for e.g if you go in medicare drug test is must, similarily if you go for financial majors, fingerprinting is common.
If you are clean you shouldn't worry. Good luck and congrats for new job.

I filed my 485 in EB-2 I, in July 2007. My PD: Nov 2004. I couldn't resist myself from creating an Infopass appt to find out the details of my case. I am in Dallas, TX. Had the appt at 7am this morning and I am pretty happy with the appt. I had a soft LUD on 08/14/09 and was concerned if it was for pre-adjudication. The officer was respectful and answered all my questions. I was asked my priority date, category, country chargeability. He checked the system and told me that the case is pre-adjudicated on 08/14/09 (hence the soft LUD) and a decision has been made. I asked him if he would know the decision and his response was "I cannot officially say that it is in the YES bin, but USCIS does not have to wait for a visa number if it was in the NO bin." I said that I understood it and asked if the namecheck and FBI check were complete. He said, the next step is to approval. I was all smiles.
I checked for my wifes status and he checked the system to say that her case is in the same status. He also added that, her case was last touched on 08/28/09 (No soft LUD).
Final stmt, "You case is very close to completion. Give another 30-60 days and you should hear the good news. Our online systems are not all up to date and in sync. You can always make an Infopass appt to get the latest update on your case. This being the end of fiscal year, with new visa numbers in Oct, you are safe to get an approval soon". I thought it couldn't get any better than this (prior to getting the GC...citizenship.....win a lottery.....start a company....and so on and so on).
My suggestion, if you are current, make an Infopass appt. It is worth it. Atleast, you dont have to check the "Case Status Online" and you inbox every few minutes.
I almost forgot: When the officer(?) said that "...this being the end of fiscal year and new number coming out, you are good", I immiediately asked him "unless the visa numbers are all over for the year and it retrogresses real back than my PD" and his reponse was "I dont think so...atleast I have not been hearing anything about retrogression for now for EB2-I". I hope thats a relief to most of us EB2-I guys. I hope thats the same for everyone else as well.

I'm currently working for Company A on H1B Visa. My GC is sponsored through Company B as a future employee. I never worked for Company B which has sponsored for my GC. I have applied for I485 and I140 has been approved for more than 6 months.
Company A is going through lay offs and wont be able to apply for my GC. My 6 yr limit on H1B from Company A will expire next year.
Can i apply for H1B extension through Company A based on my I-140 from Company B.

No. But the employer can file for 1 Year extension if there was a Labour or PERM was filed and it's pending. If I140 is approved and waiting for I485, employer can file for 3 year extension.

I didn't get an email, but I checked my case status online and it has changed to Decision today. Waiting to get the snail mail. Hopefully, it will move to card production ordered soon. My wife has a FP appt on Jul 15, so I wasn't expecting to get approval before that, but I guess sometimes the surprises are pleasant.

I'm wondering if criminal charges that never lead to a conviction (3 charges in total) can cause a green card holder to get deported? Also, when a person applies to renew a green card after it expired will another FBI fingerprint check be done?
Thanks for the help.
If you were never convicted, you should not have any problems. Because remember, you are innocent until proven guilty ( which means conviction) and being charged is not an offense by itself. You might face some problems at POE because your finger prints might show up due to arrest record, but if you have court documents showing you were acquited or police documents showing that your charges were dropped, you should be OK.

Immigration Visa Attorney Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
Elin Nordegren broke her silence (http://sports.yahoo.com/golf/blog/devil_ball_golf/post/Elin-Nordegren-on-Tiger-Woods-I-ve-been-throug?urn=golf-265021)today and gave her side of the story today telling the world how shocked and embarrassed she was by Tiger's infidelity. She also defended the marriage, saying that the marriage was real, not orchestrated for the cameras and sponsors.
In our practice at Fong & Chun, LLP, we have seen many marriages, like Elin and Tiger's which were entered into for love, completely genuine marriages and yet within years (sometimes a lot sooner), the marriage goes awry. For those immigrants whose conditional greencards were based on marriages to US citizens, these men and women find themselves in a situation like Elin, telling their stories to the USCIS, actually defending themselves from deportation, that even though their marriage didn't survive the test of time, it was not a marriage of convenience for immigration purposes.
If a marriage fails anytime before someone naturalizes, a person who immigrated through marriage will later be summoned by the USCIS for an intense and very uncomfortable interview in order to maintain their permanent residency - even at the time of applying for citizenship. Such interviews can even occur years after the marriage and divorce, so recounting the facts of a relationship and providing the documentation to verify the facts of the courtship, the wedding or civil ceremony, then detailing the timeline of marriage, separation and divorce is more than just burdensome, it's sometimes impossible. Attorneys at Fong & Chun have defended clients in such interviews, which can take several hours! Not to mention the legal briefing and the administrative review that can take months to years in the most complicated cases.
We have counseled couples and immigrants who face this difficult situation, sometimes their marriages have ended because they had to escape physical or emotional abuse, other times, the marriage failed because of infidelity or even financial distress. If you need help telling your side of the story to USCIS, call the attorneys at Fong & Chun, LLP for a free consultation. Maybe we can help. --ecf
