Very Tricky situation.
I was in the same situation only thing is that for me it was the same employer.
So.. I assume you can go before June 30th so you can re-enter US if you are in US.
If you are planning to go to Canada.. You can call the consulate ( that is what i did ) Just a suggestion...

People applying for tourist visas for the United States in Qatar have greater chance of accessing them than in any other GCC country. Figures released by the US Administration suggest that only 3.2 percent requests for US tourist visas made to the US embassy in Doha were turned down in the FY 2010.
A US government website citing tourist visa (B-Visas) refusal details country-wise said the data were preliminary through September 30, 2010. As for Qatar, the data show this was the lowest percentage of tourist visa refusal in the entire GCC region. The next Gulf state with a lower percentage of rejection was Kuwait (3.6 percent). Bahrain ranked third with a 4.1 percent rejection rate while the percentage for the largest GCC state Saudi Arabia was six.
As for Oman and the UAE, the percentages were higher-8.7 and 9.7, respectively. The GCC states ranked much above their peers in the Arab world like Egypt, Yemen, Sudan and even Iraq. The rate of B-visa rejection in these countries was more than 30 percent.
Somalia topped the list with a rejection rate of almost 70 percent followed by Djibouti (60.2 percent), Yemen (54.3 percent), Mauritania (49.7 percent) and Iraq (42.2 percent). It is interesting to note that the next Arab country after the GCC states with lower refusal percentage was Libya (14.3 percent). Morocco with a refusal rate of 15.5 percent and Tunisia with 15.6 percent rejection ranked next.
Among non-Arab Asian countries, China with a 13.3 percent rejection rate and India with double that percentage fared better than Pakistan (41.6 percent) and the Philippines (38 percent). Sri Lanka (28.6 percent) and Bangladesh (36.4 percent) were much better off as compared to Pakistan and the Philippines. US embassy officials were not immediately available for comment but it is understood that after Qatar Airways introduced flights to major US cities beginning June 2007, tourist visa requests from Qatari nationals as well as expatriates here have multiplied.

I think: We donot have a choice. We have to show up on the day and time given on FP notice. If we can't- we have to request uscis for re-scheduling.
Call the ASC office and usually in such circumstances.. they allow to come earlier... Lots of ASCs are open sat.. So that may be good for you... Call your local ASC...

I came to US on H4, 3 years ago. Later I took my H1B with a recruiter and got it with I-94. It was valid up to 2007 oct. But I couldn't take up any work due to some problems. Recently I went to India and came back. At the port of entry I got new I-94 with H4 stamping. Means My H1 Is not valid now ? In this case, is there any way to apply for change of status again as my H1 is valid up to 2007. Or else do I need to apply for my new H1B again ? Pl. any one clarify.
If you have changed status from H4-H1..how come you entered on H4 again..
As per my knowledge your H4 status ends once your H1B is approved and if you go out of country..you have to get your H1B stamped and enter the country...
I may be wrong ,please consult a good immigration attorney

so can anyone please tell me,
a.) after my H1 expires in april, can i stay for a month or so and then leave the country?..will i be in any trouble at the port of exit.. i need time to pack and ship..hence the delay...
...Should i seek a legal advice???
... i just want to know.. if i can approach the USCIS and explain and get some kind of extension..
..do you know anyone who has been in a similar situation..
what are my options.. any advice will be appreciated...
thanks..

I have been following IV ever since itz inception and I really appreciate all the efforts by volunters.
However, I feel we have up-hill battle in this current political and economical situation and we need to re-think about startergies and solving current retrogession.
I just want initiate brainstorm, I am not sure if these ideas are discussed before,
Having seen how CIR bill is killed in House, I am very doubtfull about SKILL bill getting passed in house.
getting any pro-immigration (legal/illegal) is a long processes, so can we need to focus on what we can do to reduce the retrogression within current legal framework
like
lobby senators to enforce USICS on following
- Reduce time taken for Security Checks
- Try to consider 245i cases in a different catagory than EB3
- Try recapture unused visa numbers from 2003-04-05
- issue EAD/AP for three years
- remvoe per country quota
- allow to apply for I485 if I140 is approved, ( I know this is controvesial but we can try)
These simple things could reduce retrogression if not completly resolved

Hi
I currently work as Market Research Analyst. Can I get approved for EB2 with MBA+0? Company is willing to help. Would requiring a foreign language help?
I have some experience from before I got my BS and my MBA can that be used?
Thanks

I applied for my PERM Labor Certification on 06-Aug-2007. My status online shows "APPROVED"on 13-Aug-2007. My Lawyer says that the HARD COPY is needed to move forward (My priority date is Jan-2006 from a prior Labor/I-140 approval).
1. How long does it usually take for the Hard copy to reach the attorney's office after approval.
2. Is there any way I can apply for I-140/485 by August 17th given that my status shows "APPROVED" as of today (August 14th).
Any suggestions?

The important thig is the period since yoour last admission to the US before July 2007.
Say you entered in Apr 2007 then you would not have accumulated 180 days of unauthourized stay in US before filling 485 and you will be OK.

Can anyone please share info on conversion of EB3 to EB2 after applying for 485 ?. Our lawyer now suggests that they cant apply for EB2 and they have to revoke EB3 application.. Is this applicable to even apply for EB2 labor and subsequent I140. I thought we need to revoke 485 only when we are about to apply for new 485. Also, please let me know if we can apply for EB2 when you are in EAD status and has not invoked AC21. Sorry, if this question was already answered in the forum.
you can start a new LC in EB2 anytime, irrespective of whether you are in EAD, h1, AC21, in the country, outside the country, travelling in space. No restrictions...
The only risk with what you are trying to do is if you try to file EB2 for the same position for which you had earlier filed in EB3 (ie. job duties and position are the same) you can get queries from USCIS about it. Make sure this position (or job duties) are different. Search the mesage boards, this topic has been discussed earlier

I talked to an attorney and they said its best to file for AC21. i want to file it but am not sure if i should take attorneys help (and pay them) in filing this or just work with the new employer to do it.
what happens if we don;t file and they later change rules around this, we never know.
Thanks.

Need your help..
Post MBA (since Jun'06), I am working with a new employer. My previous employer (bachelor degree), filed for my labor in Nov'04 and I left this company in Jun'06; howevr employer didn't withdrew my labor application. My labor with previous employer was approved in Feb'07. I have good relation with my previous employer and they are ready to file my I-140; I have few questions regarding this:
Can my previous employer file I-140, even if I am not working with them?
YES
If I-140 is approved, would I able to transfer the PD to my new employer, when he initiates my labor application.
YES, you would need a copy of the I-140 and since you have good relations, it should not be an issue
Once I transfer my PD, can my previous employer use this approved LC for other candidate?
This is a grey area. Not sure but I believe post-April, approved LC would have a validity of 45 days or so - so it may not be reusable. From your point of view, I'm not sure if the LC does get reused, does it impact your PD or not - my take is it doesnt but I'm not a lawyer.
Based on my new qualifications (MBA), my job description has changed totally compared to my previous job.
Thanks in advance..

Some where I read that there is no fee for renewal of AP. I am a Jul 07 filer and am not sure about this. Further already applied last for Advance parole and travelled till it got expired last month. I am applying for a new one again. So just wanted to know if I need to pay the fees $305.
So my questions are:
Does the July 07 filers need to send the cheque for $305
Should we also include Biometric fee of $80?
And how much time is it taking these days for AP/
Thanks in advance
There is a confusion regarding who pays what amount.
To avoid the filing date confusion, stick to this simple rule :
If you paid less than $400 ( I do not remeber the exact I-485 fees prior to the increase), then you need to pay for the Ap and EAD, the respective amount. If you paid more than $900 for your I-485 filing, then go file AP and EAD as much as you want.
For either case, you do not have to pay for the biometric. Biometric is only for EAD. Not for AP.
AP takes roughly 45 days.
Hope this is clear.
