I have an opportunity to do some consulting work for a company B on a part-time basis apart from my current full time job with company A. I know that I will need another H1 for the part time gig but what I am confused about is whether the company B has to wait for next years quota to file for an H1 or can it file immediately ? Meaning is the H1b quota tied to max no of individuals ? or to max no of positions ?
I would appreciate if some one knowledgeable about the issue can comment on my question:confused:

I need help.My EAD has finally been approved and so has my I-140. I am now working for the petioning company but the pay checks are made out by a payroll company hired by petioning company to manage their staffs paychecks but their is no mention of the pertioning company on the paycheck I receive.. Can this be a problem if I should receive a RFE in the future for the still pending I-485 or eventually when I apply for citizenship?:confused:

I don't have a lawyer. I will do the correction myself when I get the receipt.
Good luck to you.
I am in the same boat as u r in.....I made a typo on I-485 and want to send a letter....On form 485 for the question "In what status u last entered" I entered H-1B when it should really be F-1.....After sending them the letter, do u know if we'll get a confirmation saying that our request has been approved?

The short answer is yes. Once you have an approved I-140, you can ask to be accorded the PD on any subsequent I-140.

Hello experts,
Here is a situation of my friend .
1.He lost his and his wife's passport alongwith the receipt notices and FP notice.The current visa which has expired and I-94 is also lost.
If he is in states then he can apply for new passport .For FP Notice he can just walk in to office get FP done on that day provided he has copy or A number with him .
Apply for duplicate copy of H1B approval ,I think it cost @ 200 - 300 $
2.The lost passport includes the old passport with old visa in it.
Get duplicate copy of h1b and go outside usa and get visa stamp on new passport.
Can you please throw some light as to what are his options.
Thanks & Regards
Just my 2 cents...

hi, first, I'm not trolling. I have a genuine question and I'm looking for answers seriously. I got laid off in 2009 while on a h1b and then for one reason or another, stayed back for 8 months. My understanding was that I could have gotten a new job within 6 months and then switched over my h1b. I was foolish. My I-94 on the h1b approval letter however had an expiration date of October 2011. By the time 8 months had gone by, I decided it was time to give up hope and return to my country.
Since I've been here, my parents have started a campaign to get me a bride. Arranged marriages are part of my culture, and people marry based on how good a match it is according to one's birthchart. If I do find a USC who is willng too marry me, will it help me in any way immigration wise? Or will my 8 months out of status stay in USA chase me for the rest of my life?
Already I have answered your question. the onus is on you to prove that you are not marrying for GC or USC and your marriage is genuine. If the US consulate or USCIS becomes suspicious..they wont give your any chance...no matter what. There are cases where one married to the USC and have US born kids...still not able to get the GC and facing deportation and spending good amount time with attorney and immigration court.

Hello everyone and thank you IV for all your great work. Much appreciated.
I have a (hopefully ) simple question:
I am EB2 (had been current the whole time) and I am just now ready to file my I-140 and I-485.
That said and considering the now new window to file (till 8/17), should I premium process the I-140? Does it even matter? Am I going to basically throw away $1000?
I had ready that they would not even touch the I-485 till the I-140 was approved but that sounds like a contradiction to concurrent filing, right?
Any info, tips would be greatly appreciated.
My attorney is ready to file but I want to make sure I ask the right questions/get the right info from them before they do so.
Thank you all once again!

By Deborah Notkin, AILA Past President
Attorney General Andrew Cuomo has successfully carried out a crusade against the fraud and deception of "immigration consultants" who take advantage of unknowing and vulnerable immigrants. At a recent media conference, Cuomo indicated that his office is seeking civil remedies, at least initially against those involved in immigration assistance fraud because the first goal is to get restitution for victims. http://www.ag.ny.gov/media_center/2010/mar/mar1a_10.html
The latest victory in the fight against immigration fraud and victimization was announced by Cuomo's office on March 1, 2010. The Attorney Generals' Office has won a court judgment of more than $3 million against a "consultant" in Queens who has targeted and defrauded immigrants. In this case, the "consultant" routinely charged a retainer of $7,000 with fees often reaching up to $15,000 per person for the promise of permanent residence. The consultant wrongly claimed that she could get permanent resident status through alleged relationships with government officials. Of course, the services were never performed and the consultant routinely refused to give refunds or return documents.
As a result of Cuomo's lawsuit, the New York Supreme Court has ordered the consultant to pay full restitution to 37 families who came forward and demonstrated that they were defrauded by this consultant. An additional $2.7 million in penalties was imposed for engaging in the unauthorized practice of law and misrepresentation of services that could be performed. The consultant is also permanently restricted directly and indirectly from engaging in the business of immigration-related services.
Over the past several months, other consultants have been shut down and active investigations continue. The fight to end this blight on immigrant communities in New York City and State continues and serves as an example for all who are committed to fighting immigration fraud and the unauthorized practice of law.

Good to know i can file a new H1 based on 140 irrespective of who filed 140 and i am in H status or not. This way i don't need to be always tensed about a possible RFE on 485.
Hi Vikram -
Since your H-1B transfer petition is denied, you are not in H1 status anymore. However, I would suggest consider applying for 3 year H1 based on approved I-140 (and PD is not current). It does not matter who applied for that I-140.
There is a chance that USCIS may approve this H1 without I-94. In that case, you need to get new visa stamp and reenter into US to get back into H-1B status.
Good Luck.

Like many others we have been waiting for our AOS application to be approved for over 2 years. But the strange thing is, I did get an EAD approved but they never called me in for fingerprinting and Biometrics. I know I had to do the non-immigration "registration" that was initiated a few years ago and they had taken my fingerprints and biometrics, is that why they didn't call me in again? since they already have it?
I had to get the fingerprints and retinal scan the last time I went out of the country and had to get the visa stamping done. But I don't think it was termed as non-immigrant "registration".
Are you stuck in FBI name check? You can call CIS and check the status.

My Labor PD is Jan 2003, was approved on Sept 25th. Got it last week. It is very random process I guess. Can't tell how long you have to wait knowing so many people behind us got their approvals before us. Any inquiry didn't work. I just gave up and waited.
