H1B Visa Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
The United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) is seeking public comment on a proposed federal rule (http://www.federalregister.gov/OFRUpload/OFRData/2010-13991_PI.pdf) that would adjust most fees by 10% for immigration benefit applications and petitions.
USCIS is a fee-based organization with about 90% of its budget coming from fees paid by applicants and petitioners to obtain immigration benefits. The law requires USCIS to conduct fee reviews every two years to determine whether its costs to administer the nation�s immigration laws, process application, and provide the infrastructure needed to support those activities. A fee adjustment, as detailed in the proposed rule, is necessary to ensure that the USCIS recovers the cost of their operations while also meeting the application processing goals identified in the 2007 fee rule.
Members of the public are encouraged to submit comments and/or suggestions to USCIS.
Comments may be submitted through regulations.gov (http://www.regulations.gov/search/Regs/home.html#home). The comment period runs for 45 days, beginning June 11, 2010 and ending July 26, 2010.

My opinion - Check this with a lawyer. Seems to be complicated. Not sure if there is anything against the law done by you /your company (that affects you). Thats why the need for a good lawyer to understand the details in the case. All the best!!!

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.
Yes, it is legal, allowed, and possible
no. Comp A cannot apply for H1 extension as the PERM labor is not held by them. What you can do is get an EAD and continue to work for Company A, but then Company A will have to take over the process using AC21

Hi,
My wife and I are currently working on EAD and have used the AP to entry the US. We will be going to the Canadian consulate to apply for Canadian Visa (want to go on vacation). I had the following questions:-
1) What all papers are required?
2) How long will they issue the canadian visa for? I am planning on obtaining a multiple entry visa. When I was on H1 they issued me a visa which was till the end of my H1 expiration date.
Thanks.
Sorry to be sarcastic but , does your question requires a thread ? simple search in google and canada embassy will answer all your questions .

If your future wife is not in the US now, she will apply directly at the consulate for her L-2 visa. There is no need for you or her to get prior approval from CIS, like you do for the L-1. Your question is unclear, so I don't know if this answers it.

My application was received on July 3 at NSC. Till now, I haven't received any notices. I got the RNs by calling USCIS.
Now, I placed an expedite order on my EAD on Friday. They sent me a mail saying my app was received on Oct 10 and not July 3 (yeah right! if it was oct 10, why would you even accept it?). So I faxed them the fedex delivery signature confirmation. Today I see a LUD on my EAD app but nothing else has changed.
Can anyone shed some light on what might possibly going on here? I can probably wait for some more time to find out for sure but I am curious. Guys with approved EAD - did you see a LUD on your app before it was approved?
Thanks
Iam a july 2nd filer at NSC and haven't received my receipt numbers yet. can I ask you when you got your receipt numbers? Thanks a lot!

Dear Friends,
I filed my I-485 in July 2007. My I-140 approved. I want to file my EAD now. I have the following questions.
1) can I e-file ?
2) how much is the filing fee for me ?
3) what are the forms to fill and documents to send ?
It would be helpful if you can point me to any thread with all these info.

I am specifically confused about "Second, it may be appropriate to confirm that the new employer and the job offer are legitimate through an RFE to the adjustment applicant for relevant information about these issues"
Any imputs ?

Hi,
I know there has been lot of discussions on things to do and not to do after changing jobs - but seems like there is no definitive conclusion. Thought of getting opinion on following:
(i) Generally people suggest to send G28 to change the lawyer representation - this helps in tracking what is going on without missing any RFE's.
(ii) Regarding AC21 letter informing USCIS there are contradicting advice even from lawyers - some say that dont do anything until they issue an RFE. Thinking here is that we would attract USCIS attention by sending an AC21 letter that could potentially delay. By not sending the letter they might just approve without any questions.
Based on this, I initially thought of sending just G28 but not AC21 letter. But once we send G28 to change lawyer representation, my application get USCIS's attention anyway - so I am thinking why not send AC21 letter as well as a back up.
Any opinions?
Thanks.

Typically I-94 card will be given with an expiry date, which I belive will not be _beyond_ expiry date of the Visa in the passport.
Hope this helps!!
My brother's in-laws were given a six month visa @ Chennai Consulate. They arrived in the US after 4 months. The officer at the POE stamped 6 months from date of arrival (4 months after visa expiry), even though his in-laws asked only for 3 months.
