My Green Card is stuck at EB2 Stage but all this time I forgot that I have potential for a British Citizenship based on my birth place and Father being a Britisher.
Now can I reapply as a Brit - all over again hoping to get past the long queue. I am not interested in gaming - dont get me wrong - I had been in UK for some 5-6years working and am easily eligible for to get UK Citizenship that I did not explore. Now can I change the situation ?
Hope you are posting your question for US immigration. (This site discusses US immigration)
As far as I know the country of chargeability is your or your spouse's birth country(Choice during I485 application) not based on citizenship. HTH

Hello Friends
My EB2 petition was filed in TSC in June 2009 and on July 20 2009 I received an email saying that " my approval notice was sent".Today the status changed to " Document mailed ON juLY 24 2009 " and also my previous eb1a denial in Feb 2009 got a soft LUD.
I am totally confused by this . Can some one offer their opinion on this strange development ?
Appreciate your help in advance
What petition is this, I-140 or I-485?

With the situation currently we are facing on H-1B, in my opinion congress may do some quick fix before the CIR implementation. Reforming the H-1B visa, I do not think any thing is wrong in that. In this process of reforming H-1B visa, can we incorporate our mission of at least filing I-485 without visa availability?
Is this too much to ask?

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.

Nothing to worry dude. Your wife is not out of status. Her I-94 is valid. No issues with 485.
You need to file for her extension for H4 with the new H1b so that she can continue her h4 status after sept.

Does anybody know what the best consulates (preferably in Mexico) to go for H1B stamps are? I am getting my H1-B transfer approved in the next weeks and I want to go ahead and get the passport stamp in order to travel.
My first H1-B I went to Ciudad Juarez Mexico, and unfortunately I arrived the morning of 9/11/01, I was able to cross onto Juarez shortly after they closed down the borders.. Bad experience all in all. took 4 days longer to get back home to San Antonio and had to take a bus.
In 2004 I went to the consulate in Matamoros and it was the worst. They DID not have a record of me ever having made an appt for a visa stamp (even though I called and scheduled one) and again, the whole ordeal took 3 days too long.
Does anybody know any good consulates? I was told Monterrey Mexico is very good. Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks

EAD renewal usually takes 60-90 days.....however, you can look for the approx. timelines on https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/ptimes.jsp and look for the processing times for your service center.
My receipt date is June 20th and haven't received the EAD yet - I don't even expect to receive it before August end.
Hello friends,
wanted to see the timeline of EAD renewals currently..I have a EAD renewal receipt notice date of June 18th......was wondering how many days is TX taking to approve the notice....
Did aanyone around June 15 -June 20th get any approval yet?

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.

Will be hard to give correct answer because we don't know what was his status since H1B approval & now (more than year period). If he went went out of country & returned to USA during this period, He is fine with his L1 Status.
As far his H1B approval has valid period, he should be OK to work with H1B sponcer employer as far as he maintained valid status. He might need to go out & get H1B visa stamping before he starts works.
But one thing is sure, He won't be part of H1B Quota limit for his next H1B.
Hi..
Need some urgent help here..
One of my friend is working for X employer on L1 Visa since 2007. He applied for H1B visa through Y company in 2008 quota, luckily he got it but never joined the company. Now his L1 visa is about to expire.
Question is
What will happen to his H1B visa after L1 visa renewal ?
Thanks in advance

All,
I want to get my Wife�s name (FNU case) corrected in the L2 petition. What is the process for that? I have read that a Visa amendment needs to be filed but didn�t find any such amendment form on USCIS site.
She only had her first name in the passport hence both the petition and I-94 had her name as FNU HERFIRSTNAME. I am planning to get her name corrected in passport first by applying for a new passport at consulate. Afer that, need to get her name corrected in the L2 visa petition. I-94 should get corrected when we re-enter US next year as current one is already expired.
Has anyone got the visa petition corrected? Please let me know the process. Appreciate help from everyone.
Thanks,
Prashant

[QUOTE=bin2000;764909]Dear all,
My employer filed H1B with extension of stay even though I was not physically present in USA on the day of filing.I was out of USA on June 15th due to personal reasons and they filed H1B on July 10th.
I had requested them not to file extension of stay since I was already out of USA.USCIS approved the petition with extension of stay(I-94 attached).I need to go for visa stamping now .Will this create any issues while stamping?
Hello,
If you are currently abroad, you should not run into any problems as you do not currently have status. You should be able to reenter the U.S. using the I-797 approval notice and your H-1B visa stamp (if still valid). If not, you will require a new visa stamp. Either way, you *should* not run into any problems.
If you are currently in the U.S., please note that the extension technically does not apply - i.e. your expiration date remains what it was previously. If your status has already expired, I would strongly suggest consulting someone more intimately familiar with the specifics of your case. The most likely scenario will involve you immediately departing the U.S. to reenter with the most recent approval notice and thus utilize the additional time requested.

HI All,
Please help me to sort out this difficult query.
Company 'X' holds my H1 Visa and i got an offer from comapny 'Y'
So i can easily xfer my H1 to company 'Y'
But i am expecting a better offer from company 'Z' in couple of days probably 2-3 weeks.It can be also the scenerio tht they may offer me in a day or two when my H1 xfer is already in process from company 'X' to 'Y'
In that case when can i xfer my H1 to company Z?
The worst solution is to get my Visa xfer to company 'Y' and after a month or so get it xfered to 'Z'. Is that possible and allowed to xfer it so quickly?
Please help.
Meera

Dear Friends,
I finally got my RIR/EB-3 approved. My lawyer just mailed out EB-3/I-140. Now, our parent company is trying to transfer me there to work for them. Because the parent company has totally different name and tax id, that means I will need to start from H1B-PERM-I140 all over again.
If I start working for the parent company before the current EB-3/I-140 gets approved, will I still be able to use its Priority Date when I apply for the new EB-2/I-140 under parentcompany? What if the parent company decide to close down my current company before EB-3/I-140 gets approved, will that I-140 still be valid?
Any input is welcome and appreciated.
Thanks much!

Andrew Sullivan, uber-blogger and one of the country's most influential political pundits warns that our paralyzed immigration system is at a point where it is harming our economic security: The legal immigration system - the same one that has kept me in limbo for a quarter of a century - is reaching a breaking point. Skilled immigrants are returning home to the more fertile opportunities in China and India because America makes it almost impossible for talented immigrants to move here: "What was a trickle has become a flood," says Duke University's Vivek Wadhwa, who studies reverse immigration.
