We should also request Indian Governtment to take up our Issues with the US.

Better not, US does exactly the opposite to what someone asks her :D
I think India must ask US to send back all the skilled H1b holders exactly after 6 years and not issue GC. Then you would be surprised to see heck of a lot approvals !!!!

The American Competitiveness and Workforce Improvement Act (ACWIA), imposes annual reporting requirements on U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) concerning the countries of origin and occupations of, educational levels attained by, and compensation paid to, aliens who were issued visas or otherwise provided nonimmigrant status under H1B Visas (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) during the previous fiscal year.
Here are some highlights from the report submitted by USCIS earlier this year:
� The number of H-l B petitions (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) filed decreased 15 percent from 288,764 in Fiscal Year
2008 to 246,647 in Fiscal Year 2009.
� The number of H1B petitions approved decreased 22 percent from 276,252 in Fiscal
Year 2008 to 214,271 in Fiscal Year 2009.
� Approximately 48 percent of all H1B petitions approved in Fiscal Year 2009 were for
workers born in India.
� Two-thirds of H1B petitions approved in Fiscal Year 2009 were for workers between the
ages of25 and 34.
� Forty-one percent of H1B petitions approved in Fiscal Year 2009 were for workers with
a bachelor's degree, 40 percent had a master's degree, 13 percent had a doctorate, and 6
percent were for workers with a professional degree.
� About 41 percent of H1B petitions approved in Fiscal Year 2009 were for workers in
computer-related occupations.
� The median salary of beneficiaries of approved petitions increased to $64,000 in Fiscal
Year 2009, $4,000 more than in Fiscal Year 2008.
Pretty interesting information, we hope that things will improve as our economy continues to recover.

I140 pending under EB3, non premium category with receipt date 2/1/07.
I have worked for my current company for 6 years. Currently in the 7th year of H-1B with 1 year extension until March 08.
I want to change jobs due to dissatisfaction with current work, and also due to possible future restructuring within company.
How can I change companies without having to go back or live overseas for 1 year and start the process all over again?
Thanks,

Hi all,
I am getting a new job offer and i applied my GC this July just like most of us here. Is it possible to accept the offer and transfer the H1B visa, then try and negotiate to start later as soon as 180 days are completed?
What happens if i transfer my H1 now ... less than 180 days..and do not start with the new company, will my 485 still be processed? Lets say the H1 is transferred, but i plan not to use that H1 and stick to the same company where my H1 is, will that still be ok?
I am confused, its a good offer, and i dont know what to do. pls help..

Due to Iceland's volcanic ash my MIL trip has to be postponed. She was on visitor visa. We filed an extension with USCIS and paid $300. She left US as soon as flights started to resume.
USCIS approved her extension 30 days after she left US.
a) Can we seek a refund because this extension has to be filled due to reasons beyond our control
b) In the future how to seek a fee waiver (any tips or advice please).
c) Can we seek fee waiver when we e-file a petition.
Thanks for your help

H1B Visa Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
The United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) recently updated (http://www.ice.gov/doclib/sevis/pdf/ApprovedSchools.pdf) the list of Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) approved schools. The schools listed have all been certified to participate in the program.
The program allows foreign students interested in obtaining an education in the United States to complete a visa petition, pay the required fee, and attend a U.S. College or University.
Interested Foreign students: There is a process in obtaining a student visa, but it is not a difficult one. The student must first obtain Form I-20 from the U.S. College or University from which he/she intends to enroll, pay the required visa fee (Form I-901) and contact a local U.S. Consulate/Embassy to schedule an interview. The SEVP procedures differ among U.S. Consulates/Embassies; contact your U.S. Consulate/Embassy NOW to determine its particular procedure on applying for a visa before planning for the interview.
Interested Schools: There is a separate process to obtain F & M Certification. Authorized school officials must obtain and complete Form I-17. An overview of the SEVP Certification process can be found on the ICE website . If approved, the school will be certified and allowed to issue Form I-20 to qualifying foreign students.
If you need assistance or an explanation of the SEVP/student visa, please contact our office (http://www.mvplg.com/contact.htm) to schedule a consultation.

What sort of "tricks" are you after.
I think it's fair to say that "learning to use the camera itself" is the easy part. Understanding of how to take good photos is a lifetime ambition for most of us... ;-)
To put it another way, there may well be small tricks like "if you set this up, you can press that button, and you've automatically set it ready for doing X". Which is great. But if you don't know the basic things like: composition, lighting/exposure and control of focus/depth of field, which are the basic photography concepts, then you're barking up the wrong tree fishing for tricks.
So, some tricks are "rule of thirds" and "blur out un-wanted background noise". But that's regardless of the camera you use.

I have an employee who was a student and then got employment authorization. She asked me to begin the process of getting her an H1B; but then we determined that she really wanted a green card. Can I use the LCA I got for her H1B to apply for her I-i40?

Hi,
Wanted to know if there is any limitation on H4B visa date for coming in to US. My wife's H4B visa ends on Sep28 2009, she will travel and will be back on 28th Aug 2009. Is there any problem since its only 1 month from expiry.
In the meantime I will apply for an H1b extension.
Please reply
Regards,
She should be OK. But apply for H4 extension once she is back here.

I have a green card and I'm thinking about living 50/50 in US and my home country Slovakia.
I've had GC for about 6 years and been living quite a travelling life spending more time outside US then in. Its also about 50/50 with trips always around 10mo in or out.My continuous residency is broken.
Do you think that if i live 50/50 in and out for five years they will give me citizenship with such history?
Got GC after Mom.
Thank you very much for effort. It will help a lot in deciding where my life will go from here.
If you spend more than 180 days a year in the U.S (total of 2.5 years in the 5 years preceding to the application) and show ties to the U.S (a house, tax returns, family etc). If so, it should not be a problem. The U.S ties come into picture only when you are out of the U.S for a extended period of time (like in your current case). Good luck.
