I had a friend in the same situation. Had H1 and EAD. He worked halftime for two years to finish his MBA. Now went back to fulltime H1. I think your company has to approve it and yes he filed ammendment.
Thanks for the info. I am in the process of asking for approval from my company and I don't anticipate major problems.
So far other than H1b amendment I don't see any other actions I need to take. If anybody can think of anything else please reply to this post.
Thanks.

My in-laws attended visitor visa interview at Hyderabad Consulate on 25th Feb. My mother-in-law (not working) got her visa (no questions asked) but father-in-law (an electrical engg manager, still working for central govt) was asked to fill out a questionnaire related to his professional experience and then given a white slip with a case number/email address and asked to email his resume/CV for further processing. He was told it would take 7 days to process his application.
I tried searching for similar cases on various forums and found some cases but couldn't find information on how long they took to approve the visa. So I was just wondering if anybody here has any further updates on such cases. Appreciate any feedback.
TIA.

Job visas only for highly skilled, salaried foreigners: govt (http://in.news.yahoo.com/20/20101020/1416/tnl-job-visas-only-for-highly-skilled-sa.html)
Wed, Oct 20 03:12 PM
New Delhi, Oct 20 (PTI) In an attempt to prevent foreigners from getting non-technical jobs, the government has made it clear that citizens of other countries will be taken only for highly-skilled assignments in India and should draw an annual salary of over USD 25,000. In an order, the Home Ministry nullified a Labour Ministry circular which allows one per cent foreigners among the total work force in any project with a minimum of five and maximum of 20 people. "An employment visa is granted to a foreigner if the applicant is a highly skilled and/or qualified professional, who is being engaged or appointed by a company/organisation/ industry/undertaking in India on contract or employment basis," according to the Home Ministry guidelines. Besides, the ministry made it clear that employment visa shall not be granted for jobs for which qualified Indian are available and also for routine, ordinary or secretarial/ clerical jobs. "The foreign national being sponsored for an employment visa in any sector should draw a salary in excess of USD 25,000 per annum," it says. However, this condition of annual floor limit on income will not apply to ethnic cooks, language teachers (other than English), staff working for the Embassy/High Commission concerned in India. The Labour Ministry had ordered that visa applications could be cleared by the Indian missions abroad at their level if the foreign national is skilled and qualified professional, technical experts, senior executives or in managerial positions and those kinds of skills which are not available in India.

Yes, the number will be the same.
Just want to confirm if both needs to be surrendered
I have always surrendered both (done it 3 times so far) as it says on the I-797 that it will delay the re-entry if I did not surrender the one printed on it.

You have the receipt number that itself suggest that USCIS has accepted your application. It doesn't entail anything about the decision though.
These days its taking too much time. If you filed premium then you can expect something 2weeks but if it's regular then you are mercy and depending on the case.
I got approval for my wife through premium last week but USCIS website doesn't have any record for her receipt number.

here are the visa numbers used in 2006 for EB2 and EB3.
EB-2: India(3,720), China(3,347), Canada(1,248)
EB-3 Skilled: Mexico(6,766), Korea(4,375), Philippines(4,114), Ecuador(3,747), Brazil(3,670), Poland(3,230), India(3,006), China(2,477), Pakistan(2,091)
Assuming there are atleast 300K Indians waiting for visa numbers in the EB2 + EB3 category (including dependents) and 6726 out of them were covered last year, we will have to wait for just another 44 years and 7 months to get an immigrant visa number. LOL

Hi all,
I am on H4 visa now. Got a long awaited job (with EAD) which will start in June 2011. My I-94 is till september 2010 becoz H4 is stamped till that date. But I have I94 with I-797 till June 2011(6 years of H4). I want to travel to India before i start my job, probably in may. My husband is still on H1 visa eventhough he has EAD.
1.Can i travel on H4 status as i m not holding a job right now? My 797 is only till june 2011. If i go for stamping, it is more likely to get rejected.
2. Can i use EAD and AP eventhough i am not working rightnow? Are there any chance of denying my reentry with AP?
I cannot afford to loose my job and due to personal reasons, i can't avoid the travel. Please give your valuable advice.

We can't mount fire-fighting operation on each and every front. Let's ignore them.
We have a purpose to tell, educate, highlight the issues we all legal immigrants face. This has happened under this Republican Regime. Various reasons - mainly lack of funds, lack of green card numbers, lack of staff etc.
We can continue writing small specific personal letters to lawmakers. Then as a group we address employers asking them their effort to help them best employees.
I was browsing the jobs forum on craigslist and i was shocked to see some user urging people to call Senator Cornyn to not push H1 and Eb visa increases.

Let's hope that it means the next offering from Canon comes in at about that same price point (about USD$2000). Maybe they (Kodak) know something?
More likely it a natural fallout of their recent announcements regarding their positioning (or non positioning) as a camera maker.

I might add that galbraiths site says that Kodak is dropping the digital backs to focus on making large sensors and develop high end DSLR's. Could be intersting.

Deepadandamudi,
Because you are not currently invalid non-immigrant status, you are not entitled to a change of status to H-1. But, once an H-1 petition is approved on your behalf, you can leave the US, obtain an H-1 visa stamp in your passport and then return to the US using that visa. Unless your employer is exempt from the H-1 cap, the earliest you could do this would be Oct. 2010.
As long as you remain legally married you are entitled to the EAD, and you can maintain both documents. However, if you work for another employer using your EAD you will violate your H-1 status.

Since you were out of the country for more than a year on your previous H1 and subsequently you came to US on a H-4 visa, if you apply for H-1 now, you start afresh. You cannot "transfer" your old H-1 AFAIK, please check with other gurus on this forum.
Also, what this means is since this year's quota is exhausted you probably will have to apply after April 1st and if your H1 is approved, it will have a start date of Oct 1, 2010.
Hope this helps.
Hi,
I have an H1, with a receipt date of April 2006. It was valid till July 2008. I came to US on that H1 in 2007 for 2 months. After that I have been working in India till March 2009.
Currently I am on H4. And there is a gap in employment since March 2009.
I have got an offer now and employer will take care of my H1.
I need to know what is the process of H4 to H1 in this case.? Can anybody help me
How much time does this change of status takes place?
The H1 now will be valid for how much time?
Will it depend on my husband's expiry date of H1. My husband's H1 is expiring in Sep 2010
Is it not recommended to move out of the country till status is changed from H4 to H1.
Please somebody reply. Its urgent!
Thanks in advance

I am in the same boat.
Approved I-140 in EB3 category. Current employer wants to file in EB2 category, they gave me a new job that qualifies for the category but my Attorney says that I have to withdraw my current EB3 application..
I have read so many post here and every where that tells me that it is possible to continue the process but my lawyer says that I need to withdraw EB3 case.... Any one knows good lawyer around DC Metro area with good experience for Eb3 to Eb2 transfer with the same employer
You do not have to withdraw your EB3 application. You are doing the right thing by trying to find a new lawyer.

I guess Wacom advertises their tablets more vigorously than Genius? Who knows... have you compared Genius and Wacom side by side and discovered that Genius is far superior? Personally, I selected Wacom because it's the only brand that isn't obscure and I've read a number of positive things about Wacom. It's pricey but a good investment. My first Graphire paid for itself in no time and even helped me purchase my Intuos 2.
