I donated 50$ recently. It is nothing compared to what others did but it is a start
Nice idea, but here is what I think...
Whats the point of donating after you get your Green card? Donate now in place of later and you can benefit from your own donation...and IV can get that money sooner :)

:) when you are in India, you are NOT on H1B status.
So there is nothing to stop you to work from home in India, for 5 months or 5 years :)
The paystubs during this period is also irrelevant to USCIS regarding proof of maintaining H1 status, since you were NOT. What they care at your re-entry in H1B will be existence of valid employment in USA at that time, and proof regarding this.
So you can apply for H1 extension, get it approved, go to India, work from there for any length, return to USA based on your H1B (it has to be valid when you return, plus you may need a valid visa stamp in your passport). There are no issues.
But be careful if you have a pending 485 petition. Long stays outside of USA can be interpreted as lack of immigration intent. You better have a good explanation if you stay outside of USA for lengthier periods, with 485 pending.
Not exactly correct. Once, he left the US for a long period of time (except vacation) the employer should remove him from US payroll and terminate the H1B. This is the very legal way. If employer want to receive employee's service outside the US, the employer should "outsource" the work to him. In this case, both the employee and employer must follow export-import rules between two countris and pay appropirate tax in both countries.
After employee left the US, if employer continously keeps him in US payroll using his H1B authorization for work eligibility, and receives his service or work from abord; it is the violation of LCA work place. If USCIS knows that the employer will be in trouble.

Our fellow marchers,
The two of us, here in LA, are trying to hear as many stories as possible and get all the information to write our script. The more compelling the stories, the more powerful this documentary can be.
This is a collective voice and we are all in this together. Think of this as our chance to make this voice heard. All of us who are part of this struggle are giving our best in creating world-class software, products & services. But most of all, we are providing some of the best years of our life to this adopted homeland of ours. In return, we are living our life in a holding pattern instead of realizing our potential to the fullest.
Please do come forward and share your stories with us. People who are not in LA can still be a part of this, email us your stories. We will figure out a way to weave you in If you wish to stay anonymous, let us know and we will not mention your names, we just want to understand your life stories.
The broader our understanding of the issues that all of us are facing, the stronger the script would come out to be.
Bring your unique gift to this voice and help us make a change for all of us.
You can email Jwalant at jay@immigrationvoice.org or us at weTheVoice@gmail.com

Well people say that a) Dem should talk about CIR too.
b) CIR seems dead.. No relief. c) Tracking down illegals.
1) If they start tracking down illegals and only enforce these strict loose
and local forces also help them, they can deport these illegals.
(True but this is a never ending process).
2) If they don't bring CIR now and just forget about it.(More illegals are comming in every day -- Experts do say Border Fense can never stop them).
3) American needs people like these to work in the factories and farms.
(How can this need be fullfilled-- make a program to bring them in legally
-- This is guest worker program)
4) According to the new CIR - illegals will be paying back taxes before taking the first step to citizenship.
................ Legalization is a benefit to the economy.............
pray

Just updating my case in case someone is going through same situation and need help.
I mailed the two pictures that they requested on June 2nd, as today, my online status hasn't change, still says: Request of evidence sent, case placed on hold.
I made an INFOPASS appointment last friday and I just came back from talking with an immigration agent. They will expedite my I-131 for free, they said they normally do it within 30 days but he liked me and he said he was going to try to get in just 5 days.
He said he sent a request thought their intranet to the TEXAS SERVICE CENTER, they should be calling me if they need anything, if not, they will send me the TRAVEL DOCUMENT right away.
I'll keep you all posted!

If I cant find any (recommended lawyer) within Houston, I will go to him. But does he practice employment law? His website says " The practice is focused exclusively on immigration and naturalization law". I am looking for a lawyer to discus my non-compete clause.
Appreciate your response. Thank you so much.
He is based in Dallas,TX. he provided excellant service to me in my tough journey.

Hi,
I received RFE on my 485 for I94 copy. My situation is below
I travelled to Tijuana, Mexico from San Diego by road to request
for new I94 at the US Port of Entry at San Ysidro, Tijuana as my old I94
was issued only until PP expiry date but since i already had a valid I94 on H1B notice, The officer didn't issue a new white I94 card even though i requested for one. Also, The officer took my earlier old white I94 card, so i don't have one with me now though i have a copy
of it. Also USCIS is asking for a detailed explanation on why new I94 was not issued at POE. please advise on how to respond to this RFE
POEs in Canada and Mexico don't usually issue a new I-94 when you visit those countries for less than 90 days. You can just remind CIS of this (maybe they thought you went to another country) and explain what happened.

He can use AP to renter. USCIS would not have approved to give EAD if USCIS determined he was out of status in the first place.
NOT True.. they will give and come after you just to deny/revoke it.

Hi attorneys/seniors,
Getting confused about the online status.
Today morning my employer got mail from VSC saying that their received date is 03/12/2010
Status check online by 10:30 AM(03/15/2010)
Status:Initial Review
Date received shown:03/12/2010
Status check online by 1:00 PM(03/15/2010)
Status:Acceptance
Date received shown:03/15/2010
Status went back from Inital review to Acceptance and date also changed from 03/12/2010 to 03/15/2010.
Got confused.
How it works normally?
Online case status can be confusing and sometimes incorrect. Your employer has paid for premium processing, which entitles them to contact USCIS through dedicated premium processing channels. They respond very quickly on these channels. Urge your employer to contact them, if there are any doubts about the status.

Hello Friends,
Current Situation:
-I am on my 10th years in USA and started using my EAD 1 year before
-My Employer A filed my green card labor in March 2005 and got approved (so my PD is 03/2005)
-I485 pending for more than 2 years (so I am beyond 180 days limit)
-I140 is approved.
-I have been working with them (Employer A) till Jan, 2010 (3 years on H1B and 1 year on EAD)
Now I am getting a good offer with senior role plus pay (30% more) from Employer B and I would like to take it.
1) If my Employer A continued to process my GC and confirmed that they will support till I get my GC. Do I still need to use the AC21 portability to work for the new Employer B?
2) Or should be a safer side to use the AC21?
Thanks for your help on this
Vel
Trick question. Are you testing our knowledge of law?
AC-21 can be used for job in same or similar occupation.
Also since green card is for future purposes, your employer A can still support you in terms of documentary evidence, but it will be upto the lawyer to convince the USCIS.

Hi All,
Please let me know, based on your personal experience, Does Change of Address 'triggers' an RFE from USCIS????
I recently found a project (after many months) and am working for this new employer on EAD. However, I have not vacated my old apt....still paying rent and keeping it as my current one, and sharing accommodation with others in the new city where I am working....because of the only reason that I fear, which is an RFE.
Please let me know.
Thanks.

Hi All,
I have a question and this is regarding my husband.
We have filed our 485 and have got our EADs and AP's. Our 180 days will be over by jan end.
My husband works for Company (A) as a consultant. He is placed at a Client (C) and there is another consulting company (B) in between. Client (C) is a direct client of Company (B). The relationship is like A -> B -> C.
My husband wants to join the Company (B), and keeps on working for the same client (C).
Has anyone done something similar to this and can anyone share any legal issue with this. I will really appreciate if someone can guide us more.
Thanks
A lot of people want to do this and have done it in past. Depends on the relationship between A and B. B would definitely prefer to have you on rolls because no one likes to deal with additional layers. Look into contract issues and obligations before you make the leap.
