Thanks for the reply roseball. My question is the new I-94 number that I got with I-797 does not match with what was given at POE but it matches with my husband's old I-94 (which is because of the error when applying).
Is this something we need to apply for correction to match with my old I-94 number which was given at POE?
Yes, you need to get it corrected or just simply re-enter the country which will get you a new I-94.

My wife and I returned one time from India to US exactly 2 days before visa expiry. we had new visa approval notice but didnt have new visa stamping in passport.
This is not reqd but if you want, you can send her your scanned copy of H1/H4 receipt notice, just incase to show that you both filed for extension if anyone ask for it. In general, send her scanned (or fax) your current employment letter to show that you are currently working here in US.
good luck:)

Hi,
I am working for "Company A" on L1B from Nov 2006. In 2008 April "Company B" filed H1B and it got approved and received approval letter with I-94 effective from Oct 1st 2008.
After getting H1B I did not move to Company B and continued work with "Company A" on L1B Visa. To void the I-94 received with my H1B Approval I traveled my Home country on Sep 28th 2008 and returned to US on Oct 6th 2008 on L1B visa and continuing my Job with "Company A"
My H1B Employer (Company B) did not revoke my H1B since I have not started working for him.
Now Company B is going to renew my L1B visa for another 2 years.
If they renewed my L1B Visa, what will happen to my H1B?
In future if I want to switch to H1B, can i switch to H1B with my current H1B or do I need to file new H1B with fresh quota (Which opens in April)?
I am really tensed now and I am not understanding whether I should go for L1B extension or do I need to switch to H1B immediately to keep my H1B status alive? What I want to now is for some time i want to continue my job with Company A on L1B by going for L1B renewal and later once the recession is over I want to change my status to H1B? can I do this?
Please advice me what steps I should take to continue in USA?

Isn't it a violation of the law, if NO reason is given while denying the 485?
The only recent case I have seen on IV was where the member got a NOID stating that the 140 was withdrawn/revoked.
So, here, a reason WAS given.
Of course, the reason might have been incorrect, as the poster seemed to think.

Dear IV members,
We have a very big media opportunity to have our voices heard. A high profile reporter is writing a story with a slighly different angle by covering the immigration plight of our muslim members.
IV does not ask or maintain data on religion/faith/ethinicity of our members and we do not differentiate members based on such criterias.
However it is a need of this reporter and we wish to help in getting this story out in a major newspaper with immigration issues we are fighting for.
If you have a compelling story and you are a muslim IV member, please contact me or Salil (raydhan@immigrationvoice.org) from IV core ASAP with your contact and a brief detail about your plight.
Pappu, In one of the midwest calls i attended there was a member from Pakistan who had a Sorry story to tell. I dont remember his name. Get in touch with PASKAL who leads the efforts from Midwest(Minnesota). He should be able to point you to the right person.

A friend of mine got an RFE (asking for employment letter) on his I485 yesterday. Does that mean they are working on his case? His priority date is later than mine and I dont hear anything from them!

Today, our AP status has changed to "Document mailed to applicant". Does this mean that they have mailed the approval document or is it an RFE document?
For most of the applicants the status has turned to "Approval Notice sent" but mine is different. Is anyone in the same boat.

Hi folks. My wife is petitioning for my green card and we are kind of stuck on a few questions. Hope someone can help us with some or all of these queries we have.
I-130
1. Part C q#10 - I arrived in the US in 2004 on an F1 visa. Now, I'm on H1B status. I don't believe I have ever been given an alien registration number. Am I wrong?
2. Part C q#14 - Do I say I arrived as a student even though I am currently on H1-B? If so, I don't have that I-94 anymore. It was taken by the airline when I left to get my H1-B stamped. Also, I have travelled extensively for work ever since I started my job. Consequently, I have two I94's. This is because I recently renewed my passport and when I went to Canada for business, upon returning they gave me a new I-94 (the previous I-94 is still in my old passport). So, what do i say i arrived as? And which I-94 number should I provide? Also, the format of the I-94 number on the top of the card seems to be different from that on the application ie. xxx-xxxxxxxx???
3. Part C q#19 and 20 - I don't really have any relatives in my home country anymore. Do I still have to give an address? Also, I can't write my name in my native language either. What do i do?
4. Part C q#22 - The instructions for I-485 say that if I am filing concurrently then I should mail everything to their lockbox address in Chicago. So, do I enter Chicago, IL here? or my current city, state of residence?
I-485
1. Part 3 - Non Immigrant visa number? I don't see this particular number anywhere on my H1-B visa. Can anyone help me locate this??
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards
k.

Why is Tata giving such huge donations to schools in US that are already established?
I would think he should have given donations to schools or colleges in India that really need it. Especially in remote villages where there are no schools or proper infrastructure.
Good question.
I am busy in meetings today and this weekend. But I will have some time on Monday. Please remind me on Monday to ask him your question. Thank you. :D

It is their error and mistake. There is no time to correct. So, officer should understand.
becuase, his / her previous approval notices / I-94 copy on approval notice - the lower left part and I-94 the lower right part should have correct start and end dates. he can carry them.
In my son's I-94, the one previous to the lat/latest one, his country of citizenship was notes as Oman (and not India). During the last renwal, it was corrected to India. My attorney placed a note.
I went to Vancouver, BC in March 07 and got H1s stamped.
Any other experiences. Please, take a moment and share.
Hi all,
This is for my friend who got his 3 year H1- B extension recently.
He planned to visit India for stamping and already booked the air ticket + consulate appointment.
But the Visa validity start date in his I-797A is incorrect. He joined this company only in 2006 but the start date shown in I-797A is sometime in 2001.
Though the END date is correct, Is it going to cause any problem in his Visa stamping?
He got only 2 weeks to fly and skeptical about the turnaround timeframe to file for correction.
His lawyer says it is a very minor problem and will not affect the visa stamping.
Please share any similar experiences / ideas.
Thanks a lot

there are 2 scenarions in the situation:
1. if the petition was not selected through the lottery system , you lawyer must have got the entire package back alongwith the application fees. He would have recieved this package in May itself.
2. If the petition was selected through the lottery system, you lawyer must have recieved reciept notice stating that USCIS is processing the H1-B petition. If the petition was filed properly then your lawyer will recieve the approval before October (most of my friends have already recieved their H1-B approval notcies)
If the peition was selected..you can ask your lawyer for the reciept notice number and track the progress of the petition on the USCIS website.
Hope this helps.

As far as I know, since you are past 180 days of 485 filing, you are ok. You can stay in the country based on your pending 485 application. You can take whatever time it takes for you to get a job in your same/similar job classification. However, if your 485 is close to approval, then you need to hurry to find the job, since a job offer is required at the time of adjudication of 485. This will depend on your country of chargeability and PD. If you are from India/china/philippines/mexico with a later PD, you should be ok as long as you find a job in the same or similar classification.
Others can correct me if I am wrong.
What impact does this have on H1B holders who are ALSO AOS applicants? How much GAP can they have while on H1B?

I went to Baltimore USCIS FP center.They ask ID at the counter only if you are getting your fingers printed, and this counter is actually tokens issuing counter inside, there was no security or anything at the entrance.I have seen several families with kids.I guess it is going to be the same in other locations.
My wife and I are scheduled to go for fingerprinting this month. We have a year old son and obviously we are planning to take him with us as well. Do I need to take any form of ID / birth certificate of my son (obviously he is not to be fingerprinted) but not sure what the rules are with respect to carrying infants for the interview. Anyone who has fingerprinted in a similar situation?

I went to Toronto , that was august 2008.
1) he just asked which school i studied when I was in F-1
2) who is your employer.
3) why did you leave studies-- I said I got a good opportunity and I am close to finish it soon.
4) he looked into my previous 797 to verify whther I was out of status any time which I was not
5) Then he said the unofortunately you have a very common last name so we he gave the a sheet , kept the original 797 and gave my passport back to me...took 6months before I got email .. went back and got the visa...
I dont know whether I have to go thorugh that issues again when I go for stamping...

This USCIS fisco seeps have more twists than Anna Nicole Smith case.
here you another angle to it:
http://www.immigration-law.com/
07/12/2007: Truth to Rumor of Resrictionist Senators Having Influenced USCIS Decision of July 2007 EB New Filing
There is an unconfirmed source of information that a couple of restrictionist U.S. Senators influenced the USCIS decision to reject July applications for their alleged fear that since July 2007 Visa Bulletin would open a flood gate of hundreds of thousands of 485 applications, the public might take it as the government giving out a sort of "amnesty" to these floods of people. We hope that there is no truth to such rumor. However, if it is true, it is indeed shocking that individual legislators could interfere with the government process on "personal" basis and without the formal legislative process of public notice and participation. We urge the U.S. Senate to get to the bottom of this rumor and take appropriate action for correction under the Senate rules.
