Hi All,
A few questions for those who have experience with registering a sole prop. in the US.
My wife is on an H4 visa and has registered a sole prop. earlier this year. Since she is not eligible to work, she has hired a U.S. citizen as a contractor to run the company.
Does owning a company in the US have any impact on our green card application?
Can she draw profits from the company at the end of the year as a return on the investment she made to start the company?
Is she considered a "U.S. person" ( seen in multiple tax forms )?
Is it safe for her to fill out a W-9 form with the FEIN that the company was registered with?
Thanks for the quick response.

It is perfectly legal to let two employers file for her H-1B visa. She can even work for both of them!
Hi,
A friend of mine who's in India right now has been offered a job by two different employers here in the US. Both of those employers want to file for her H1B.
From her perspective it makes sense to let both the employers apply for her H1 coz that increases her chances of getting at least one approved. However, reading a bunch of FAQs online it seems that it'd be illegal for her to let both the employers apply for her H1B.
Is that correct? Does anyone have any insights?
Thanks.

You need the reference. Go to the solution window (located on the right side and right click on it and select add reference). Empty project is just that, empty.
Console applications are normally the non-GUI projects. It will default and add certain references.
Just for some future information you can create class library for creating a dll with a project. Useful if you are using certain code in multiple solutions. In this way instead of including the files you just include the project and in the solution put a reference to the project and it includes the .dll (dynamic link library) file when building the solution.

I asked my company attoreny about this.. he said that immigration petition is I-140 and as I-140 is not filed for your wife (I-485 is already filed for my wife) so I should say No there for my wife's form.

I am in need of this info and want to clarify my doubt. Please reply soon.
Both parents were in India and Indian Citizens by birth at the time of birth of their chidren in India. Birth of year for children is 1996 and 2000 (still minor). As such both children are Indian Citizens by birth.
If one or both the parents acquire foriegn (Canadian) citizenship and does not apply for Canadian citizenship for their children, does it affect Indian Citizenship of their minor children in that case? Will the children automatically loose their Indian Citizenship? or children can still be Indian citizens as they have not acquired foriegn citizenship, even if parents have acquired/renounced the Indian citizenship? (Parents have to write to Indian Consulate that they are renouncing their own Indian Citizenship due to acqusition of foriegn citizenship in order to get Indian Visa for themselves.)
This doubt originated due to information in Wikipedia under Citizenship Act of 1955, which has a clause which says "Renunciation is covered in Section 8 of the Citizenship Act 1955. If an adult makes a declaration of renunciation of Indian citizenship, he loses Indian citizenship. In addition any minor child of that person also loses Indian citizenship from the date of renunciation. When the child reaches the age of eighteen, he has the right to resume Indian citizenship. The provisions for making a declaration of renunciation under Indian citizenship law require that the person making the declaration be "of full age and capacity."
Regards,

Hi guys, I have a unique situation, thanks to july visa bulletin. I have a EB3 labor and I 140 approved with the PD as May 2004. Recently I applied EB2 PERM in order to port the PD from EB3 to EB2. My EB2 perm is approved now. Now, I am in dilemma to choose between EB2 and EB3. I can apply EB2 I 140 and I 485 concurrently (by assuming that they will port the PD) or I can apply I485 (for previously approved EB3). Please suggest as to what route I should take.

Hi !
My husband just had his performance appraisal today. He is presently working as a Senior Consultant.What we are wondering is that if there is any change in the designation, will it affect the GC process in any way ?
We got our I-140 last month and EAD two weeks back.
Kindly advice us on this.
Thanks
Vinki :)
Until its the same kind of work, it wont effect the GC process. Your employer could send an ammendment saying that theres an appraisal.
P.S: I am not a lawyer. I said just based on my knowledge.

Folks, I have received a notice from USCIS stating the following:
The above application or petition has been received.
Your application was received without the necessary fingerprint fee.
Under 8CFR 103.2(e), this fee of $70.00 must be submited along with the filing fee fot the application/petition. If this office has not recieced the fee within 87 days, your application will be considered to be abandoned under ...
Is there any one else in the same boat? What are my options here?
I too received a similar notice. My employer replied by submitting proof of the paid checks. Meanwhile, I received my receipt notice that shows $395 received. I have also received the FP notice and the same was completed yesterday. Customer service was not of much help.

There shouldn't be any issues. The H1 visa stamp on your passport is seperate from the I-797 approval that you received, both are valid. Your wife should also have no problems getting an H4 using your current I-797. I had a freind recently who was in the exact same situation and he and his wife both didn't have any issues.

Sanju, I hope you were right but they are talking about immigrants in totality (legal and illegal) . Unfortunately with the bad economy and job market this fire might be heading our way i.e. legal EB guys. (I hope I'm wrong)
fueling the fire, but they better make sure the fire drivesoff the right monsters , the illegals.

Lawyers can usually justfy some minor spelling mistakes and answer to RFE. Usually USCIS accepts BC name.
Based on inputs from my lawyer, there is some delay if such descrepency is there - he said that he can reply to such RFE and apart from delay there is no other issue.
Thank you. That is good to hear.
