Dear All,
My wife had applied for H1 last year through one desi employer. We received the H1. The employer took initial money from us to pay for the H1 fees promising that once project got started he would pay back. But during search for a project he mentally harassed us a lot. Luckily my PD became current, my wife got EAD and we could work independently. We were thinking of complaint against him to DOL. We have even prepared the case with all the documents and everything.
We were ready to send it but yesterday we came across a case of one Vishal Goyal who sued Patni for paying him low wages. Patni then threatened to harm his family in india if he doesent withdraw the case.
We are just afraid of something like that. I request people to please share if they have been abused by desi employer and if they have sucessfully complained to DOL and their experience in what they went through. Thank You.

Firstly, I don't understand what was the rush to file for your wife's H1 when your PD was so close. You must have seen the market in US for a long time and must know how desi consultancies work. Having said that, I would encourage you to go ahead and file the complaint. Don't get scared by these threats, it's not easy to harm anyone's family even back home in India. I took my employer to the court and the case was settled between lawyers but for you DOL is better. If you don't do anything at this point, it will keep bugging you all your life that you couldn't do anything against a blood sucker even when you are in USA (in my case that was the motivation even though I was at the edge financially).

I guess you already know but can't help to remind this :
USPS has a system of mail-forwarding. After leaving your old-address, if you notify USPS, USPS will continue to forward all your first class mails to your new address specified by you. You can do it Online @ usps.com... I guess they charge $1 for verifying your address from the CC address, if you do it online(which I did).
So, NO, your mails will not be lost!
I think USPS does not forward mails when the mail says "return service requested" .

Hi All,
Please help me by answering the following questions and also bear with me if those are basic questions. Thanks a lot for the help in advance.
1. My employer asked me to wait few months for at least partial job market recovery and advised its better to start the labor filing preparation sometime in Nov 2009/Dec 2009. There is a positive news on the job market recovery. Is it a good time to apply for PERM Labor now? FYI, my second H1B expires 09/30/2011.
2. Is it possible to file multiple PERM Labor Certifications through two different employers at the same time? If yes, could I choose the employer I would like to stay, if both gets approved approximately at the same time?
3. How long I can continue with future employment in the GC process?
4. If the Labor get audited, is it possible to apply for H1B extension after 6th year?
5. Is it possible to port I-140 & procedure involved to port with / without the consent of current employer.
All the best!!!

the way i did it is i applied over internet using online AR-11 form. I did not apply by mail. Then, the next day, I called my lawyer's office and told them to contact USCIS to make them aware that my address has been changed on the petitions that are under consideration. For the people who use the online change of address path, i think everybody should know that there is more to it than just hitting submit button to AR-11. It then takes you further to ask whether do you have any pending petitions with USCIS. then you are supposed to say yes (if you do) and then it will take you to a screen where you provide your case numbers etc. however I couldnt get to that step due to some glitch so i decided to call my lawyer's office to have them finish that step. They simply called and informed USCIS of the address change.
hope this helps.
Did you apply online or thru regular mail? Also, if you sent regular mail, was it certified mail or just regular first-class mail?

We got a rejection notice for my wife's 485 & 765 application. The notice said

Other evidence that an immigration visa petition has been filed/approved on your behalf.

Not sure if an "independent" consultant on H1B can make more than 250K. Considering he is working 2080 hours in a year. He has to get $120/hour for himself + his employer cut. In 2000, you could have demanded those rates....but, now days I doubt.

Renew the passport through expedited processing if available, then take an infopass appointment and tell the officer that you had an interview and that he didn't get the stamp because his passport had expired, but now it's renewed.
I think they'll do it on the spot.

Just noticed that my lawyer has attached marriage certificate of my co-worker in the dependendent's petition. I am waiting for the receipt.
What are the impacts of this mistake? To compound the issue, my wife is flying out next week for a month to India.
Gurus any answers on this is deeply appreciated.
I am pretty sure there could be an RFE or explanation for such kinds of goof ups . I am also sure such goof ups by attorneys are not the first time USCIS must have expierienced ,so they will understand. High volume filings can lead to errors/mistakes

As long as you are working in the same position you should be fine. Also since you are making more than what is specified in your labor there is no reason to be worried. At I485 stage all they want to validate is that the employer still has the position open and you are still employed. So there is no real need to worry about the greater income.
Your second question perhaps needs more documentation. Add your rental papers, bank statements, insurance statements (if you are paying for spouse) etc along with marriage pictures and if you have kids their BC.
Gurus / Attorney,
Please suggest..
I got RFE for my employment verification and bona fide marital status..I have following questions..
I am still working on current position but my salary is more now compared to two years ago when I submitted my I485. Both past and current salary is more than Labor requirement. In my employment verification RFE letter, should I mention my current salary OR would it be a problem for I485 petition.
I am submitting joint tax return as a proof of bona fide marital status. My annual modified gross income is more than my current salary as a result of yearend bonus. Once again, I hope it won't create a problem for I485 application.
I would highly appreciate your any advice in this regard.
Thanks,
EB2 - India / PD 04/06, I485 receipt date 09/07

Where in the application on the vfs website, can I add another family member? I was not able to find the place to enter another petition no. or passport no.
If we can only take one appointment per family, will the counsulate people review both, my husband's and my H-1 docs together?

IMHO the proper response would have been that dude...this is technically illegal..and may cause problems...but personally i know a few people who've made through but YMMV.
It is not a misleading information..I told what happened to the people I know. Recently In march , mid march my friend filed H1 to h4 transfer and it got approved in 17 days. She did not work from October 2007 till date. She did not get any queries. There is one more case like this,. But hat person got her h1-h4 in one year with no queries, SOmetimes people do get queries, I do not know how they manage it.
So what is your advice to the OP. consult a lawyer. If she/he consult a lawyer, what will the lawyer say..Same thing, you are staying illegally here. Go back to India and apply fresh H4. Because I heard this from many lawyers. or they will simply file for H1 - H4 transfer.
Even then My advice is also consult a lawyer and let us know what did the lawyer say.Please update us. There are thousands of H1s who didnot get pay and converted to h4. Have all these people got queries are sent back to India. I dont think so. I am not saying staying without pay on H1 is not breaking law. it is breaking law. But there must be a way ...when you convert to H4. I do not know what is that way? If all these payless H1 are breaking the law and USCIS finds them then thousands will be banned for 10 years from entering US rt. Can anybody tell me to how many people it happened till now?

If you belong to India then it depends on the state of residense. You can go to other consulates if you are a returning H1B, meaning this is not your first H1 stamping. For first time stamps they require one to go the consulate of the region they belong to.

The fact that you are moving to a new employer using your EAD is in essence using the AC-21 portability provision. This new employer will now have to support your AC-21 claim.
You don't have to do anything further. In case employer A revokes your I-140, then USCIS might send an NOID. This can be easily reversed by sending in your AC-21 documents via the new employer.
There is no such thing as "continuing your GC process with your old employer" in your case. It is only true if you are working for your new employer using H1-B or other type of a visa, NOT EAD.
If anyone has doubts about what I said then please correct me.

-- Is this really true? I have heard different opinions on this. I have also heard that once you use your travel doc, you become a parole and the H4/H1 status is no longer valid. I have the luxury to use both H4 or travel doc but I would rather use H4 to avoid entering as a parole.
You missed the point.
1. Every member of your family must have AP in possession before s/he leaves US so that his/her I-485 application is not considered abandoned.
2. S/he do not need to use AP when s/he reenters. S/he can only show his/her H1-B/H4.
In other words, it is the following scenario that you must avoid: "A person leaves US before s/he has his/her AP document in possession".

Hi, Guys:
My old H-1b will expire on June 30 2007. My employer has applied the new H-1b extension, but it is still pending. I am planning to go back to my country this summer and try to apply for H-1 visa in US embassy in early June. My question is whether I can apply for H-1 visa using the old one (expire on June 30) while the new one is pending. How long will be my H-1 visa valid (usually 3-month in my country)? Will I get 3-month or till the expirating date(June 30)? Can I come back to US? Many thanks.
