Frankly I don't know why people think that IT folks cannot qualify for EB2. Inspite of all changes done by DOL, people with 4yr degree + 5 years of exp. can qualify for EB2. If the company can make a good business case and can prove that there are other people (Permanent Residents/ Citizens) in the organization with 4yr degree + 5 years of exp. for same/ similar position, there should not be any issue for the getting an EB2 approved. As far as my knowledge goes, the requirements are set forth in law - that is not something that USCIS can change over night.
True - it might become more difficult to get approval for such cases, but that does not mean that IT folks cannot qualify for EB2.
Just my 2cents.

Philip Wolgin lists on Huffington Post his ideas for smaller items Congress could consider since CIR is effectively dead. Some are obvious, but others less so. They are 1. DREAM Act 2. AgJobs 3. Make the EB-1 category more reasonable. 4. Create a more reasonable bar on those accused of providing material support to terrorists to cover those essentially involuntarily providing the support. 5. Eliminate the one year bar on asylum claims.

Let's hope that it means the next offering from Canon comes in at about that same price point (about USD$2000). Maybe they (Kodak) know something?
More likely it a natural fallout of their recent announcements regarding their positioning (or non positioning) as a camera maker.

I might add that galbraiths site says that Kodak is dropping the digital backs to focus on making large sensors and develop high end DSLR's. Could be intersting.

Hello
I am working in the US on H1-B visa, and would like to start a company which would develop iphone applications which would have accompanying websites where people would register and pay a monthly service fee.
I have read the various forums and it appears that I can be a passive investor in the company and not assume any role or work for the company even in a volunteer fashion.
I would like to however fulfill my entrepreneurial dream and would like to take on the role on the CEO of the company. So, can I start the company in India (my country of birth) e take on the role of the CEO and then start a company over here as a passive investor and then do the leg work for expanding the business in US.
Please advise.

I am on my 2nd phase of H1B visa which is valid until 2012.
I want to quit my job and go back to my home country.
How long after I quit my job do I get to stay here to wrap up and ship my stuff??
Does that jeopardize my status? I plan to be here for about 30 days after quitting my job. WOuld that be ok? or is it overstaying?
If I ever need to apply for a tourist visa in future will this jeopardize my chances of getting a visa then?
Thank you!
You have no grace period for staying after your H1-B status becomes invalid (which I believe would happen when you quit your job).

Hello Madam/Sir,
I have applied in EB2-NIW category and filed I485 concurrently during July-August 2007 season. My wife also did the same to maximize the chance. Both of our I140 were approved recently.
Now, we have two sets of I485 pending (in one, I am the primary applicant, my wife is the dependent and in other, she is the primary applicant and I am the dependent). We both are doing job in the same company in the same position. Since we are from India, it will take probably a long time before our I485s get approved. Since the economical sitatution is not well in recent time, we planned to keep both I485 active in case something unforeseen happen to one of us; so that the other set of application will still be active.
We recently got a RFE for our birth certificate/parentage information. We have got birth certifactes from Indian Consulate, affidavifits from our mothers (since mothers name was not included in original birth certificate) and letters from our schools.
Since we were not sure whose EB2-NIW application would be approved, we kept both sets of I485 application active. Now, we were wondering if there is a problem in having multiple I485 pending at USCIS (of course they are related to differenet I-140). We would like to know if it is better to withdraw one set of application at this point. Is there any risk of cancellation of both I485 due to multiple submission?
Your answers/views will be highly helpful for us. Please reply.
Thank you so much, in advance.

If he went on vacation after getting the AP then ask him to use the AP to get back . He can still maintain his H1 status even if he comes back on AP.

Well I'm not sure about datalists but assuming you have edited the object in memory the binding should reflect the edits. If not I usually just write a Requery method which queries the data source again and rebinds the offending control
You might want to have a look at CSLA - it's a library for maniuplation of business objects supporting parent/child collection heirarchies, error providing, multiple undo levels etc etc - it certainly speeds up creating a business app around here. We usually combine it with CSLAGen which is a template generator based on CodeSmith which generates CSLA objects for you from a database schema - all you need to do is write the sprocs which get/update/delete the data and then it does the rest (you might tweak it a little here and there).
It's got a bit of a learning curve but once you know what you are doing it's invaluable! That would solve your refresh issues :)

Here is one of the comments below that article that makes sense too (claims to be from a congressional staffer):
As a congressional staffer, I'd say you should just call. Even if you address the letter to the LA, it will likely be passed off to an intern or an LC (legislative correspondent). Writing to constituents is not fun, and most offices have people that do it all day long.
More than likely, an intern will pick up. DO NOT just start rambling about whatever issue you want to gripe about. This signals the person who answered that you are crazy, and should not be speaking to a staff member. They are very busy, and no one is going to pass a crazy person off to their boss. The intern will know to either say "We'll pass that on for you" (which he will not), or say "I've made a note and I'll deliver it to the congressman" (again, he will not). Interns don't know anything, nor do they have the power to do anything.
Instead, simply say your full name and ask whoever is on the phone to speak with the LA who handles the issue about which you are concerned. Be calm, be stern. If you speak to the LA, don't just start off with "I have some opinions I'd like you to know; here they are!" Instead, ask questions! Ask what the congressman's positions are on the issues. Ask why. Explain your own position. Finally, ask if there is any other information the staffer might need.
You might be passed off to voice mail. Do NOT give your opinions here. Simply say that you have some concerns about a certain issue, and that you would like a call back.
Most offices have daily callers and letter writers who leave incoherent notes and messages about anything from UFOs to mexican truck drivers. Your goal should be to separate yourself from this crowd.
Do this, and be rational, and you just might make a difference.

I am posting this on behalf of my cousin who is stuck in India pending stamping. He went to Mumbai consulate for H1 B stamping on Apr 29th. He was asked for further evidence about his employer and his employer's payroll details for all employees etc. After much confusion created by the consulate, the details were provided by his employer and by him (sealed copies) as well. He has visited the consulate 3 times and VFS office couple of times and was told your passport will be returned in couple of days but till date he has not received it.
He also has his AOS application pending with USCIS with his wife as the primary applicant. He has a valid EAD card and AP (which needs renewal). It's been a really long time he had to spend away from his family. He has certain questions he would like to get clarified,
1. How long can it take for 221g pending case to clear? I have submitted my passport to consulate on 10th Jun.
2. Can I write consulate a hand written mail (not an email) asking for passport saying that I want to travel on travel doc as I'm away from my wife for 8,9 months.
3. Can I ask consulate to return my passport without H1 stamping for renewal of Travel Document (AP)?
4. Can I travel on my travel doc (AP) after asking my passport back without any problem at the port of entry?
5. After asking for my passport back will it affect the renewal of my travel document (AP)?
Thanks a lot!

Hello I am in H4 in usa.
I have applied for change of status to H1b this year, but still now I haven't received the decision form USCIS.
In the mean time, my H4 status along with I-94 is getting experied by the end of this month Oct. I am not able to file H4 extension as this would overlay my probable H1b status.
Now, If I dont get any decision on my H1b and I don't file H4 extention by the end of this month, what would be status after that? Would I become Out Of Status? What should I do under this situation?

Hi,
I will be done with my second master's this July 29. I have two months grace period to leave the country as I already used my OPT after my first master's. I have a job offer and they are willing to do my H1B which starts from October 2011. But my two months grace period will end this september 29. If my H1B is filed in September under Premium processing, will I be in status or out of status for those two days. Did any one face similar problem before. If so, can you please give me the solution?
Thanks,
KEDoubt

I worked for company A as a full time employee from May 21st,07 to July 11th,08 and then company B filled my H1B transfer on June06th,08 and I joined company B on June 17th, 08 as a full time employee.
So there is a overlap, I mean I worked for company A and Company B as a Full time employee from June 17th,08 - July 11th,08 and got full time salary from both of these companies.
1. So will it be a issue, if companyB or some other company sponsers me a Green card in future?
2. Can I use the experience letter issued by the CompanyA for Green Card purposes? If not then shall I mention to my attorney/Company who will sponser me Green card that I worked for companyA till June 16th,08 and there is no overlap.
Experts Please Advise

The silence from those of us not affected by the green card process who are legal immigrants is annoyingly deafening. The entire economy has picked up now and yet legislation takes forever to pass!
What does it take for lawmakers to turn their heads? People holding placcards and signs on streets protesting? Is that the only way to have something heard? Obviously, written articles such as these isn't helping!
Dear Vatsa,
I'll tell you what it takes.
It takes strength, both in membership and money. And the former helps bring the latter.
Please help introduce a member to IV by Jan 15th. Help create our own voice (to break the annoying silence that you talk about).
Encourage others to participate in the Add ONE Member campaign started by IV.
Thank you.

$930 plus a biometrics fee of $80; the fee total is $1,010. Exceptions listed below. There is no fee for applicants who are filing Form I-485 based on having been admitted to the United States as a refugee. Applicants 80 years of age or older are not charged a biometric fee; the fee total is $930. Applicants under 14 years of age: - Filing with the I-485 application of at least one parent have a fee total of $600 - Not filing with the I-485 application of at least one parent have a fee total of $930
I would assume that EAD and AP have to be paid for separately.
see the last paragraph. Looks like the new fee is a combined fee.
