Hi,
I am currently doing my MBA here on a H4 visa. I want to know if I would be eligible to apply for the H1 Visa ( in the 20,000 quota) without converting to
F1 status. Please advise.
Thanks in advance...

Hi All,
I am on L1A visa which is valid till December 30 2010. My 7 year limit on L1A will end with that date. I have applied for Labor on October 20, 2009 with another employer (not with the one who has sponsored L1A). Since I applied for Labor (PERM) can I apply for new H1B petition now based on the receipt number ? Please advice. Thanks in advance for your help.

I am going to complete 6 years on H1-B by 2009 March. When we applied for the H1-B Transfter to my current company last year for some reason I got the extension upto Jan 2010 which is more 6 yrs.
I was on L1 until 2004 Jan for 9 months in the begining and my previous company converted L1 to H1 in Jan 2004.
My question is do I need apply H1-B extension on approved I-140 to get 3 more years extension as 2010 Jan will be my 7th year on H1-B ? OR I can wait upto current transfered H1 - B approval validity?
Please advise.

Dear IV members,
As of 23 September 2006, we have received less than 15 questions in preparation for the next call. This does not meet the critical mass of 20-25 questions for justifying a conference call.
Please follow process listed in the thread http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1267 for us to consider your questions.
Also, please spread the word around.
I am attaching a flyer for your convenience. You could request your friendly neighborhood ethnic grocer (Indian/Mexican/Chinese/Filipino and others) or video rental store, religious gathering or communal gathering place to carry these flyers in a prominent location. (You'll be surprised at the positive response you will get from such businesses- I had my reservations at first, but when I approached a temple sometime back, the temple officer appreciated the efforts made by us for such a "great cause"- his own words).
NOTE: Flyer will be available after file upload/download problems are resolved.

To retain the PD, you would need the copy of the I140. Without that, there isn't much that can be done when you switch companies to keep your PD.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$GOOD AFTERNOON GC$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Deadline = April 30th, 2011
Goal = 5000 votes on survey (see I-485 filing w/o current PD thread) and momentum to continue with this campaign.The survey is a platform to gather and push for launching action items. Based on response by 04/30/2011 - IV will decide whether to even proceed with initiative or not.
Actions - 1) Vote on survey.
2)Email ivcoordinator@gmail.com with PD, ph#,email & subject "I485 filing impacted�,
3)Print/Circulate Fliers and spread FB, wiki link (see "support thread")
This is a supporting thread to the "Want to File I-485 without Current Priority Date? Gather here" thread started by pappu.
As suggested by pappu/starsun, this supporting thread provides impacted members with additional information and tools to help the initiative.
Visit Immigration Voice Wiki (http://immigrationvoice.org/wiki/index.php/Employment_Based_Green_Card#Process_.28EB1.2C_EB2. 2C_and_EB3.29) - for overview of Employment Based - Green Card process
Visit I485 Filing w/o current PD Wiki (http://immigrationvoice.org/wiki/index.php/Current_Grass-Roots_Initiative_-_I-485_Filing_without_Current_Priority_Date) - for overview of this initiative
As pappu stated in the first post of the above referenced thread - some of the ongoing efforts include finding how many IV members would get benefit from such a provision and get basic details such as username/Priority Date of impacted members. Future action items might include drafting documents and letters to support this provision. There maybe actions such as sending emails etc. However we would not be able to open a public action item unless we can have thousands of our members willing to participate in a grassroots action item. This survey intends to understand the needs of our membership for this provision and collect grassroots information.
The fact is we have a dedicated group of volunteers (and we need more) who have been trying their best to spread the message about this initiative so that a strong grass-roots support can be created leading up to launch of the public action items. So far we have around 1100 people who have responded. Based on quick calculations carried out using PERM data, it is estimated that there are at least 60K-70K EB applicants waiting to file I-485/EAD/AP (this is a very conservative estimate..the actual number could be much more). Grass-roots initiatives require time and patience and we request maximum number of impacted folks to participate actively.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What can you do to participate?
1) Vote on the poll/survey created by Pappu.
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum14-members-forum/1599353-want-to-file-485-when-pd-is-not-current-gather-here.html

There is no question that the current economic malaise is a major factor in the current demand being short of the H-1B supply. (As of June 18, 2010, 22,900 regular cap petitions and 9,700 master�s degree exemption petitions have been received by USCIS). But, as reported in one of the authors� previous blogs, the state of our economy is but one of the reasons for the decrease in H-1B usage. Perhaps another reason is an employer�s ability to make use of a relatively recent DHS rule which permits an F-1 visa holder working pursuant to OPT to extend such OPT...

I would like to invite you to visit our web site, http://www.cleaningdigitalcameras.com (http://www.cleaningdigitalcameras.com/). This site is currently the only site written by a professional camera repairman on the subject of cleaning the sensors in digital SLR Cameras. As a matter of fact, this is written by the camera repair industries� most published author Larry Lyells.
This site discusses the methods used in-house by all manufacturers, versus what they want the consumer using. Also covered is how to make your own tools and multiple resources to obtain others. I could go on and on about the site but a visit to www.cleaningdigitalcameras.com (http://www.cleaningdigitalcameras.com/) will show you everything.<O:p</O:p
