I'd do the reverse. I am currently working on EAD so I dont want any issues with being without an EAD for even a day. I'd apply exactly at the 120 day mark. Even if I lose some valdity, its ok.
As far as AP is concerned, I dont mind if it comes a bit later or even after the previous one has expired.
3-4 days. These days they are fast on approvals. Best thing is to apply AP within 120 days range and apply EAD when 100 days away from expiry. Atleast you will get 2 years EAD and dont need to pay again.

That's helpful.
So, it doesn't matter if I have GC pending with company A, and I am over 6 years on H1B. Will company B be still able to get H1B extension since my I-485 is pending(with comp A)?

Hi
I got selected in the lottery this year 2009 for H1. I filed it through a consultant in US. I am currently in India and waiting for I-797. Some quick questions :
1. If a MNC in US is ready to offer me a job, when is the earliest, the H1 can get transferred ?. is it possible to get the H1 transferred before I get it stamped in India itself ? (before October).
2. If the above is not possible, when is it possible to transfer the H1 ?.
3. Is it necessary I work with the consultant, before I can get my H1 transferred?.

Friends,
There used to be a number of threads created / discussed every day on IV... those good ol' days... a lot of good discussions on a variety of topics, including immigration:D
But of late I am seeing fewer threads on IV and wondering what could be the reason.
1. Either a lot of folks got greened and stopped visiting IV
2. or a lot of folks lost jobs & abandoned their GC process
3. or a lot of folks got frustrated and left for their home countries
Is this just me feeling this way or...?

I think Canada is much better option . It's cheaper and convenient. I have heard many success stories of H1 stamping in Canada
I've an appointment in October at Munich, Germany consulate for H1B stamping. Because of time constraints I decided to get the stamping done when I'm out there for work. I've already obtained the german visa (though had to provide plenty of explanation !). This is my 9th yr extn (MS, EB2 - 140 approved)
- Can anyone share their experience at the Munich consulate?
- or, should I plan going to Canada and trying rather taking the risk in Germany?
thanks,

in case he application is denied, will there be any time mentioned in the denied form or not? thanks for your input
Go ahead and apply, as long as you get the receipt before expiry date on her I-94, you should be fine. You will have to be ready for her return to India ASAP if her extension petition is denied, as she might start incurring illegal stay, which might create hindrance for her next visit or her next VISA application.
It would be a good idea to state about her anticipated visit to other states etc. instead of other reason.
It is likely that she might get RFE, but it should all be answerable.

Hi,
I am wondering if anybody had done this before: I want to work part time (20 hrs/week) for 6 months( and no other job). I am on H1 but I also have EAD. So I am wondering if there are any implications to this such as I need to amend my H1b , because of some obscure law my GC process will be affected. Any input is appreciated.
Thanks in advance
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.

Once you take appointment you can call the same consulate and sned required documents and get PIMS verified.
You mean even the consultaes in India verify that ? I thought only those in Mexico do that.

You should copy paste the post instead of link and forcing people to go to a website. I suggest you edit your post. Let people discuss here than on some other site.
This person is ROW and current. Only EB3 I know the pain of waiting.

We are a few hours away from the biggest Awards ceremony in Hollywood and the world. So what part do Immigrants play in the biggest show on earth? Talent is the one universal passport, and Hollywood has always had a place for immigrants � from German maestro Fritz Lang, who headed west when Hitler's minister of propaganda pressured him to take over Germany's top studio, to Polish Roman Polanski, who directed Los Angeles' definitive film noir, "Chinatown," and Taiwan-born Ang Lee, who became the first nonwhite to win an Academy Award for directing for "Brokeback Mountain," his reinvention of the western.
As Hollywood tries to stave off commercial stasis, the industry has been undergoing another chapter in its love affair with foreign writers and directors, particularly those from the Far East and Latin America. The international box office now accounts for more than 60% of a film's box office gross.
Of course, in this age of globalization, it's unclear what it even means to be a Hollywood immigrant anymore. "It doesn't matter where you live," says Paramount Classics chief John Lesher. "We all talk on the phone. We see each other at film festivals. You can edit a movie in Brazil, and your editor can be in London, and you can put it together seamlessly in perfect time."
So for Oscars 2010 we will not able to determine again who is an immigrant and who is not, an honestly who cares. What we want to know is who will win tonight.
For as lacking in suspense as the acting races are, the contest for the biggest prize couldn't be any closer. It's David vs. Goliath here, with 'Hurt Locker' and 'Avatar' seemingly trading "favorite" status every other day.
Unless they somehow split the votes and the Weinstein-backed 'Basterds' revises more history with an upset, the Oscar will go to either the highest-grossing Best Picture winner ever, or the lowest (in half a century, anyway). Be warned: This one is flip-a-coin close. Enjoy the Oscars tonight!!!!

Hi All,
I would like my parents and my younger brother who is in his engineering college 2 nd yr to visit me on visitor visa. My father is a government emoployee with more than a yr job left, my mother has retired last yr and my brother has still 2yrs left for his engineering.
1. Do you think they should raise any objection for my brother getting a tourist visa ?
2. Should my brother's case affect my parent's case as well? I think given my father is a govt employee in India, that should work in his favor? Any thoughts.
Thanks in advance,
Get Visa for your brother is a dream . Your parents should get with out any issues . I would suggest dont even try foryour brother as this will be enetered in passport and can cause issues in future

Your Priority date seems to be Dec 2005 and if i remember correctly USCIS had a memo to complete all Background Check in 6 Months so yours should have been over long time ago.
But Again I am not a expert here and could be wrong, EXPERTS please advise
well...they had my finger prints on July 28th..so they started FRESH checks all over..
Which means, by the time they complete checks, PD will retrogress and then when PD becomes current they start again.
I think I may have wasted my career by not grabbing opportunities that came to me but waiting for GC to approved..I hope not to repent a lot later :mad:

Not to be too ignorant, but it sounds like you can use any strobes as long as the triggering mech. works with your camera. I would prefer wireless. I guess I wasn't aware that the E-TTL wouldn't factor in either. Boy, I have a lot to learn. Thanks guys.
