Article by Frank Aquila of Bloomberg BusinessWeek who underscores several reasons why lifting the cap on H-1B petitions is essential for US Tech growth including the fact that "The U.S. Labor Dept. estimates that by 2014, 2 million high-tech jobs will go unfilled simply because the cap on H-1B visas has not been raised."

Your mother can file a B-2 extension request on an I-539. She should not need to file an Affidavit of Support, just provide reasons why she wants to extend beyond the initial admission period. In my experience, CIS is very generous in granting extensions of visitor status. It my take a few months to get an approval. However, as the previous poster says, she can stay in the US while the extension is pending IF the extension is filed before her current status expires. Good luck.

well that is what I am saying.
The job says it needs a person with Bachelors degree with 5 year of experience in servers and also 3 years of experience in network security.
I met those both criteria before I joined the job.
Now the question arises, which one I fall under ? EB2 or EB3 ??
:confused:
The HR/Lawyer has to decide the category, you can't. The job category is based on what the job requires, not what you have. If you have 20 years of experience but the job requires just BS, it falls into EB3. Good luck.

Hi everyone,
I got my labor approved under perm on Sept 11th however I have not filed for I140 as yet. This is because of employer making n reasons to file the same. Anyways, if the 45 day rule comes into play - does my labor get cancelled as it has been more than 45 days since it has been approved or does the 45 day period start after April 26th. How many of you think this rule will come out. I hope it does. That way employers will have no choice but to file I 140. A lot of employers now adays are stalling filing the same since they fear the employee will move. Am I the only one facing the same problem or are there others as well?
Thanks and regards
45 day rule is not implemented yet.

Your 485 has to be reapplied and priority dates come into picture. You can change jobs but have to use H1b based on approved 140. You have to start the GC process all over again but you can retain the priority date because your 140 is already approved.

Gurus, business in my company is getting really slow and everyone is saying that some sort of lay-off is imminent. Although I am actively looking for new job, I find that the timing issue is hard to deal with.
My question is that: in the event of lay-off or firing and I don't have a new job lined up for me, do i have some "buffer" time to keep searching and landing for a job? Or do I immediately loose status?
I remember I read some guidances on this in this forum, and will be grateful if someone can point me to the right thread.

URGENT HELP
Its a simple case. I read all the posts on this thread but I dont think I got an answer I want. Here is my dilemma -
Scenario: I currently work for Company A. I interviewed with Company B and they are ready to file for my H1b transfer but they need me to join within the next 3 weeks. Today is Feb 6th 2008.
Question1) Is there anything like a H1Btransfer or is it a brand new application??
Question2) Does this H1B transfer go through the 65,000 quota system?? Is there a chance my H1B transfer can be rejected because I did not make it in the 65,000?
Question3) When can I start working for Company B?
Question4) Company B said that I should only inform Company A after I get a receipt from USCIS about my H1B transfer. If Company A matches up the salary what Company B is offering me after I inform them and I still havent started working with Company B, can I stay with Company A? If yes, What about the H1B transfer application by Company B?
Thanks in advance for your response.

Never seen any one asked for EVL for derivative at POE. Especially on AP. So you should be fine on that front. But You need to realize that you need to find a same / similar employment ASAP.

I am in 6th year of my H1B. It is expiring in Aug 2011.
Here are some details:
- My I-140 is approved with a priority date of Aug 2006 under EB2-India.
- I did not apply for I-485 so I do not have a EAD.
- My wife is also on H1B which expires in Aug 2012.
Here are my questions:
1) If I apply for H1B extension in July 2011 under regular processing and assuming it takes 4-5 months for USCIS to process the application, can I still continue to work? For how many days can I work if visa renewal is still in processing after the visa has expired.
2) If I get a denial of H1B extension do I become out of status from the date of denial or from the day H1B got expired?
3) If I get a denial of H1B extension can I immediately apply for H4 as a dependent to my wife's visa without any issues?
4) If I get a denial of H1B extension, what happens to my I-140? Is it automatically invalid?
5) If I do convert to H4 status and my priority date becomes current can I apply for I-485?
Chances are very high that your priority date will be current before Aug 2011.
good luck

Yes, as long is there is a 140 or 485 pending some where some place or a Labor pending for more than a year, you are eligible for h1 extension beyond 6 years.
My first 2 extensions after 6 years were based on a labor from previous company.

AILA Leadership Has Just Posted the Following:
Senator Sessions cannot leave his hands off of E-Verify. Now in "stealth" mode, Senator Sessions has slyly introduced an E-Verify amendment (SB 1371) during today's full Senate vote on the DHS appropriations bill.
The Sessions amendment calls for a permanent reauthorization of the Basic Pilot/E-Verify program, and mandates its use for all federal contractors and subcontractors - including the verification of all existing employees. This amounts to a massive expansion of a program that is still not ready for prime-time.
We must call our Senators and tell them to oppose this sneak attack by Senator Sessions for the following reasons:
It would impose exorbitant costs on businesses at a time when our economy is most vulnerable:
An economic analysis commissioned by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce
concluded that the net societal costs of the program would be $10 billion a year
� a cost that would be felt disproportionately by small businesses. It would make Basic Pilot/E-Verify permanent without addressing its well documented database inaccuracies:
A 2007 independent evaluation of the program commissioned by DHS found that
the Basic Pilot/E-Verify database �is still not sufficiently up to date� to meet
the requirements for �accurate verification.�
SSA has estimated that if Basic Pilot/E-Verify were to become mandatory and
the databases were not improved, SSA database errors alone could result in 3.6
million workers a year being misidentified as not authorized for employment.
This would result in 6 out of every 100 workers having to visit an SSA office to
correct their records or lose their job.
It would force workers and businesses to pay a high price for Basic Pilot/E-Verify's inaccuracies:
Queries submitted to Basic Pilot/E-Verify by Intel Corporation in 2008 resulted
in nearly 13 percent of all workers being initially flagged as unauthorized for
employment. All of these workers were cleared by Basic Pilot/E-Verify as
work-authorized, but only after �significant investment of time and money�
and �lost productivity.�We urge all AILA members to call their Congressman today and oppose the Sessions amendment (SB 1371). Don't let Senator Session's stealth tactics create a nationwide crisis for employers!

What I have heard was they ask for a copy of I-140 approval. No Original needed. Also I don't think you'll get the original I-140 approval, that is a petitioner's document to own. You should be able to get a copy of I-140 from your employer/attorney.
Make sure to get the original approval copy. Not the courtesy copy. The courtesy copy will clearly state that you cannot get any benefit/proof based on that copy. When you get a copy make an extra copy of it. It will help you for future needs.
Yes for 6+3 year extensions they ask for copy of approved I-140s.
Hope that helps.
