The only benefit of F1 over H4 is you get to use OPT and CPT. Doing an internship may be very beneficial if you are doing a MBA. After that OPT helps you to settle in a job and deal with H1B filing quota risks.
Regarding the downside of F1, many universities don't give instate tuition eligibility to students on F1. On H-4, you may pay instate tuition to many universities. So, check with the university that you are planning to attend.
Also, it will be very difficult to get a F1 visa stamp on your passport if I140 has been filed for you in the past. Its not a problem if you don't want to travel outside the country during your studies.
my 2 cents...

My Lawyer said that the Premium Processing for I-140 will be again available from 08/16/2007, he said he knows that 100%. Did someone have some information about this ??. Can this be true??
If this is true then some of the concurrent filers will try to upgrade them to PP.I will be surprised if they do that. But crazier things have happened.

It looks like the rumors are no more circulating of people being deported.
There are no posts on the forum about it. So either there are no deportations now or people have realized that they were only rumors.

you can file for a change of status to H-1, but you cannot begin working until the change of status is approved. Alternatively, you can travel to a US Consul, obtain an H-1 visa, re-enter the US using the H-1 visa and then begin work.

May I ask how you know this? Do you have some visibility to the internal processes, or have a credible source?
I'm not questioning your comment - just checking if it's more than hearsay.
Once every check is completed it goes into a queue and then every month a list goes to an officer based on the priority date and visa availability
The best thing is to call them as soon as the processing dates go past your application date. Call them to find out about ur case. At that time they are open about ur case. They will let you know exactly if your name check is cleared.
They also mentioned that once everything is in place the files goes to the office and then it might take up to 90 days for the officer to make a decision.

Hi Guys,
I got my I140 denied and one attorney suggests that I can file for New I140 and also Appeal to AAO office at the same time, another one suggests that if appeal is filed USICS will not process I140 until the decision is made on Appeal, did any one file file both new I140 and Appeal at the same time and got result for I140 earlier than Appeal.

How can I link to a file or the xml in Blend 4?
Second question, How can I add URL to the texts in Blend 4?
Thanx :D
You can use RichTextBox for inlining hyperlinks. It is available in WPF and Silverlight 4 projects. Your hyperlink can even be a path to a file :)

I am not sure if this discussion may be opened by someone already. I could'nt find it and hence I am opening a new one.
I know its not required to have SSN for starting the job from 10/01/2007. I am eager to know if we can apply for SSN before this date or do we need to wait until Oct 1st. Thanks
You have to wait until Oct 1st.When SSA checks against USCIS database to check your status, they will know that the Change of status occurs on Oct 1st .
In my wife's case we had to go almost everyday during the first week of October as they couldnt validate the H1 status and then finally they did on the 6th day.
FYI she changed from F2-H1

Hi,
We will be travelling to India and are looking to book Visa appointment. In Mumbai only first week of december is available. As we have to mail the documents, first week of december is not an option for us.
Has the Mumbai consulate opened the dates for December 2nd week and further or has the appointments been booked?

MY PD - July 8 2004, RD July 2 2007 NSC. I-485 - Pending USCIS's mistaken with EB Classification. (came to know of this after opening 3 SR's and 3 Infopass appointments).
My Attorney wrote to USCIS last week about the problem with my I-485 (USCIS mistakenly put me as EB3 instead of EB2). I want to know experience of memebers / Attorneys who have writen to USCIS for any reason(s) (USCIS Mistakes, Eb3->EB2 porting, Etc) and goten response and how long did it take for getting the reponse. Any Hard LUDs/Soft LUD's after sending letter etc.
Please share you experience.
Thanks in Advance.

Silicon Valley Immigration Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
Across Silicon Valley and the rest of the U.S., many employers are avoiding layoffs by reducing employee hours or by cutting salaries. However, H-1B visa (http://www.geelaw.com/lawyer-attorney-1054805.html)holders, and their employers, can run afoul of U.S. immigration laws if the salary is cut without a corresponding reduction in hours.
An H-1B employer must attest to the Department of Labor, that the employer is paying the H-1B employee the higher of either: 1) the prevailing wage for the same occupational classification in the same area of employment, or 2) the actual wage level paid by the employer to all employees with similar experience and qualifications for the same job. When submitting the H-1B petition, the employer must state the number of hours per week that they will employ the H-1B worker. So if the prevailing wage for a software engineer in the San Jose metropolitan area is $40/hr., then for a full-time job the annual salary would be $83,200. This would be the minimum that the employer would need to pay annually, and an employer could always pay more.
Suppose your Palo Alto employer informs you that all professionals are taking an across-the-board 15% pay cut. If the prevailing wage for your job is $83,200, a 15% pay cut would lower your salary to $70,720. If your employer started paying you only $70,720 annually while you were still working full-time, your employer would be violating the H-1B regulations, and you could be in violation of your H1-B status. However, if your hours were reduced to only 34 hours per week, then at $40/hour you would earn $70,720 annually. Therefore, an employer and its H-1B employee could properly follow the H-1B regulations by reducing the employee's hours enough to still comply with the prevailing wage. Of course, in this example, the H-1B employee would only be able to work 34 hours per week.

BTW, the easiest way to get back to H4 status is by reentering the country using H4 visa. For which, you will have to maintain H1 status, if you want her to have H4 status in the future.
I think she/he can change status from EAD to H4 without reentering the country...There is something like change of status ....I am not sure about it...Experts can comments further...
