You have to somehow prove to USCIS that company A and C are subsidiaries and mere mentioning that they have been owned by the same person may not fly. You need some kind of proof on paper.
This may not fly because, both are considered different legal entities. The time that you have worked for A from Oct 05 to Aug 06 till the date H1B Transfer was filed from C to A, your employment will be considered unauthorized.
You need to immediately contact a good lawyer to evaluate your situation and options. I am sure they will find a way out.
Your case is slightly different than working for multiple employers while on H1B.
You can have multiple H1B's and work for multiple employers, given one of them is primary full time employment. This is perfectly legal and one of my friend has gone through this situation during his GC process. He did get an RFE and provided the details of both employments to CIS and they eventually approved his case. This was in 2004 though.

Thank you very much for your help. I really appreciate it. I actually tried to fill out the Forms DS 156 and DS 157 and got totally lost. The following is my background. I worked at the company A in US as an Electrical Engineer until May, 08 (the end of my 6 year H1). Then, I went back to Malaysia and worked on my family business as a store manager and business owner, selling electrical appliances. My PERM is currently pending over one year now. Accordingly, I got an approval for 1 year and 2 months on my H1. I will now come back to work at company A in US, starting March 5, 09 (the same US company that I worked until May, 08).
I have questions that I am unsure about the Forms DS 156 and DS 157 as the followings:
Form DS 156
- Question 28 (who will pay for your trip): does the trip need to be paid by the US Employer? Can I pay it myself? My concern is I am not sure if I have to pay it myself because of my H1 Status. Pls advise.
- Question 20 (Name and Address of Present Employer or School): I think this should be my current company. In this case, please advise if this should be Company A that I will be start working in March or my family business in Malaysia.
- Question 21 (Present Occupation): should this be Electrical Engineer or Store Manager (Business Owner) for my family business? I actually worked as an Electrical Engineer for over 8 years. I only worked on my family business as a Store manager (Business Owner) for one year. Please advise which one I should put.
- Question 25 (Name and Telephone Numbers of Person in US Who You Will Be Staying With or Visiting for Tourism or Business): I will go back to work at Company A in US, and my brother lives in the same area that I will be working. So, I�ll be staying at my brother�s place. In this case, should this Item be the company A�s address or my brother�s address? Otherwise, should I put �None�?
- Question 29 (Have you ever been in US?):
For How long?: would this be (6 year � 2 months) since I spent 2 month vacation outside US during this past 6 year H1?
Enter Additional Visits to US here: I made 3 trips to Malaysia and 2 trips to Canada during this past 6 years of my H1B. I also made one trip to Canada during my F1 visa. In this case, I�m not sure if this should be the date I returned back to US from my trips to Malaysia and Canada. Should I mention only the trips during my 6 year H1 or mention all the trips, including the period of my F1 Visa?
DS 157
- Question 12 (Not Including Current Employer, List Your Last Two Employers): I worked at company B in US till Jan, 07 and then moved to Company A in US until May, 08 (the end of my 6 year H1). Then, I came back to work on my family business till now. I will go back to work at Company A again in March, 09. I am not sure if my present company is my family business in Malaysia. My future company is Company A that I will start working in March, 09. My two previous companies are Company A that I worked from Jan, 07 to May, 08 and also Company B that I worked before Jan, 07. In this case, should I put Company A (Jan, 07 to May, 08) and Company B (before Jan, 07) as the last two companies? Please advise.
Another issue is that I worked on my family business as a Store Manager (Business Owner) for almost one year. This is not engineering work. Would this cause me any problems for my visa application because I will go back to work with company A as an electrical engineer? Note that I still get work from company A from time to time, but I just did not get pay during this time that I stay in Malaysia. Please advise.
Please help�. I am totally confused and need to use these two forms for the visa interview. Thank you very much.

Hi Everyone,
Here is the scenario:
Category: EB3-INDIA
PD: APRIL 2004:
140: Approved.
485 filed on July 2nd, 2007 (of course, still pending)
Changed Employer after invoking AC21 (without sending any documentation to USCIS)
There is possibility that my new employer (where I am working on EAD) may get ready to file gc for me in EB2.
Now, here are my question:
1) Since my EB3 485 is pending, is it possible for another employer to file under EB2? Is this the process which is called Inter-filing? Has anyone done that?
2) At what stage previous EB3 PD can be used ? At the time of 140 filing, 140 approval or new 485 filing?
3) What if new EB2 I40 gets rejected? Does it have any impact on old EB3 approved 140 and pending 485?
4) Does the scenario look too risky?
5) Any one in the same boat?
Thanks in advance.

I sumited my wife's & my I140 and I485 together in this July 2nd, 2007. I'm the primary applicant and in EB3 category. I already got receipt and the requesting for fingerprinting. If i file a divorce now does it going to have any effect on my processing?
this is very important.
Sad to see this friend. I dont think it affects principal candidate's processing but dependant's processing may be in trouble.

[....You have to file her F-1 before your H-1 expires or gets denied, also you might need to show that she will continue to be on H-4 as of the date that classes start (based on you being on valid H-1 status). If this is not possible i suggest you file a change of status to B-2 and then you can decide what needs to be done, this will give you some breathing room...]
How long it takes to convert her status from h4 to B-2? and how many days it will be valid after having a valid B-2?
to convert her B-2 status, do I need to be on B-1? or it can be anything?
Does she can able to COS from B-2 to F1 (Student)...?
~Thanks in advance

If you are looking for career change PT MBA is not a good option,you can do PT MBA if you are typically further along in career, often on track for advancement to senior management and you need to balance heavy course load in addition to work and family. I'll be graduating this May from Wharton (Executive MBA) I'm already started getting lucrative offers from consulting firms but unfortuately my I-140 is still pending
So, will the new jobs "change" your job description to render AC-21 ineffective (similar or same category job etc.)?

Instead of trying to figure out which copy/original of AP goes where, and how many originals you should/will get, understand this simple fact: If you have an approved multiple entry AP, then you will be able to enter multiple times.
Each port of entry has a diffierent way of doing things. At the end of your immigration through the POE, you will have atleast one AP travel document in your hand, which will be stamped. You can use the same document to re-enter before the expiration date (on the AP), as long as it is multiple entry.
So just relax and enjoy your travel.
When it is three copies (Nebraska has been giving three), on first travel, one copy goes to airlines, the 2nd copy goes to POE and 3rd copy remains with AP holder (the 3rd copy must be stamped at POE). On subsequent travels give a photocopy (of 3rd) to airlines, ask POE to make a copy (of 3rd) for themselves and keep 3rd (after getting subsequents stamp).
When it is two copies (Texas has been giving two), on first travel, give a photocopy to airlines the 1nd copy goes to POE and 2nd copy remains with AP holder (the 2nd copy must be stamped at POE). On subsequent travels give a photocopy (of 2nd) to airlines, ask POE to make a copy (of 2nd) for themselves and keep 2nd (after getting subsequents stamp).

Friends,
I need your opinion. I came to USA in May 2005 and my H1-B is going to expire in Feb 2008, as per I-94 card as well as stamping of the H1-B visa. Thanks to USCIS ;) for opening the gates in July 2007, I had applied for I-140, I-485, I-131 & I-765, based on my approved EB-3 labor with PD 02/2007. While my I-140 and I-485 are pending, my EAD & AP were approved and received by me. My existing H1-B is expiring in Feb 2008 and my employer company has not taken any steps to renew. The Legal Assistant replied me cooly that why I cannot use EAD. I had been taken aback by her answer.
I have planned to talk to the top management of the company, but before talking to them I want to take all your opinion. Is it adviseable to use EAD in my situation? I have 3-yrs degree qualification and have been anxiously waiting for clearance of I-140.
I look forward for your advice,
Thanks in advance
Working in H1B has its own advantage.I am unsure if u are married.If not as discussed in one of the threads u might have to marry a GORI if u r not in H1B ,with the current scenerio.
If i were u i would try my best to renew the visa especially because of the fact the 140 is still pending.If there is no other way then i ll start using EAD and also keep trying options back home till 140 is approved.
Good luck

I have a quick question related to my approved I-140 and my spouse's visa status. My wife got into a medical residency and the hospital that she plans to join will sponsor only J1 visa for her. I was wondering if the J1 visa for her will be affected by the fact that my I-140 is approved. My law firm says that they had to include my spouse's name in I-140 application as a requirement.
My concern is since I-140 is a petition to immigrate to US what are the risks involved with my wife's J1 visa. Can she go to India to get her J1 visa stamping? Will the approved I-140 negatively affect her chances of entering back US at the port of entry?

I see no risk in this, unless he is also on an H-1B visa. The H-1B requires him to always be employed, and being on the bench (not getting paid) would be a violation of those terms.
But if he is using his EAD to work and is in a period of authorized stay (pending AOS), travelling with the AP is not an issue at all, as long as he always has a future job offer (in good faith) in hand.
Confirm this with your attorney (I assume you use one to file/extend your EAD/APs)

Thank you both for your replies! We are trying to figure out what to do.
She is travelling with our twins and my father. Seems like there is no way other than for her to do a flying visit or to prepone the trip for everybody.

Wrong. The DS-160 is just part of the process. Consulates all over the world cannot issue visa until they can verify through PIMS. I was asked a lot of questions in the interview because my name did not appear in PIMS. At the end, the consulate said, I qualify for the VISA but their hands are tied. Consulates have no control over PIMS and according to the consulate, they send an inquiry to KCC and have to wait for them to update.
My interview was in June so I don't know if things have changed since but please consult your attorney.
