Hello, I really appreciate a lot if anyone here could help me on this..
The company I have been working with an H1B for a years got recently restructured to a new firm and it filed a H1B transfer for me this Feb. The petition got an RFE and the firm made an Appeal, which is now pending. The job looks now rather unsecure and I am not sure if the company will continue sponsoring me for a new H1B if this transfer got denied in the worst case scenario..
So my questions are:
1. Can I file a COS to F-1 while my H1B transfer appeal is still pending?
2. If my H1B transfer appeal got rejected, or I got laid off while it's still pending, after that happened is it still possible and in time to file a COS to F1?
I am really worried about my current situation now, and thank you very much if you could kindly help on it!
Best regards,
Karl

Thanks to Googler,
i called TSC and after about 10 mins or wait, i was directed to a very nice lady. Who basically told me that they are processing April 30 application adn since mine is august RD, I have about 4 more months before they look at my file. So to answer, they do go by RD and not ND. She also tole me that my name check has been cleared. Its a matter of time now.
I have not seen any updates on my case, since the LUD after FP. I do have a criminal issue, so I anticipate an interview. However, i have forwared all my court docs to them when i applied for 485. some attorneys tell me that interveiw may not even be needed since they have all the court docs. It was for a DWI 8 years ago.

Wilmer Rivera Melendez, 61, pretended to be a lawyer and offered to help more than a dozen undocumented Guyanese immigrants in Brooklyn to get green cards, has been indicted in an immigration fraud scheme in which he is accused of offering to marry two illegal Guyanese immigrants in Brooklyn to help them gain legal status. Robert M. Morgenthau, the Manhattan district attorney, also added that this man was earlier convicted of bigamy in Georgia six years ago.
Mr. Morgenthau claimed himself having 20 year of experience as a lawyer, filed documents with immigration authorities for �withholding of removal� that would have allowed immigrants to remain in the country and obtain green cards, which is actually does not allow one to obtain a green card. Instead, Mr. Melendez�s actions led federal immigration officials to begin deportation proceedings against the 14 Guyanese immigrants. The law provides for illegal immigrants who are victims of violent crime to receive temporary visas, but not victims of fraud.

Can we pursue to have an amendment like SKIL bill or something in Economy stimulus bill? The amendment can be relevant to economy stimulus since it will give competitive advantage to america thereby stimulating the economy. (Something like AC21 made into law in 2000 to increase american competitiveness to stimulate economy)
Also, this way, there is a chance that legal immigration issues will be discussed separately from illegal immigration issues.
The economy stimulus bill is being currently discussed in House and soon will be in Senate where lot of amendments will be voted on. The bill seems to have bi-partisan support as well. We can hope this will be one more amendment to the bill!

Your help in this regard is highly appreciated.

Hi Folks,
My friend's 485 is pending with CIS and he is working on EAD. He currently does not hold any other visa. In fact his last H1 expired more than a year ago. We recently tried to renew his EAD online on USCIS website. However, we were stumped by a question which asks the applicant about his/her current immigration status in US. It was a drop down box and had many options like H1, L1 etc, but there was no option for somebody like him whose current status is just "AOS pending".
How do we get around this? Do you think it is best to apply on paper?

I was on l1b visa from Jun 2008 to Jun 2010, then my company filed my h1b change of status, so now technically i am on h1b status , but i sill have l1b stamped on my passport, i am going to India for vacactions, so i will have stamp my h1b visa, now my question is :
1. Can the Visa officer ask why your company moved you from L1b to H1b with COS ?
2. If the officer asks me, do you plan stay in US permanently ?
What should be the correct answers to these questions ?
Thanks

There is this para from Ron Gotcher's web-site:
Typically, visa backlogs are reduced by issuing visas and thus removing people from the demand list. In this case, the movement is due to decreased demand � people with approved petitions on the waiting list simply aren�t applying for visas.
(Whole article here: Home - Information from the December Visa Bulletin (http://www.immigration-information.com/forums/content/190-information-december-visa-bulletin.html))
The article says that dates have moved forward because the people whose dates are current, have not applied for their visas
And suppose we could do the same -- if no one applies the gc even once the PD is current, there will be forward movement.... then WHAM! In one go, all could apply
Anyway, just a thought (or you may call pipe dream :) )

My company and lawyer refuse to talk to me or email me back.
I sent my completed package to the lawyer 2 weeks back, and I have not heard back from him.
The initial draft needs to be sent back by the lawyer for signatures and then the file can go out.
How do I hadle the situation?

From DHS Deputy Press Secretary Matt Chandler: �The court�s decision to enjoin most of SB1070 correctly affirms the federal government�s responsibilities in enforcing our nation's immigration laws. Over the past eighteen months, this Administration has dedicated unprecedented resources to secure the border, and we will continue to work to take decisive action to disrupt criminal organizations and the networks they exploit. DHS will enforce federal immigration laws in Arizona and around the country in smart, effective ways that focus our resources on criminal aliens who pose a public safety threat and employers who knowingly hire illegal labor, as well as...

Hi,
My brother is coming to USA on L1 visa.
His wife has a valid H1-B stamped. However, her employer cannot send her to US for the next 6-7 months.
Can she come to US on L2 and then transfer her H1-B if whe finds a job here in US? Or will her H1-B get immidiately cancelled as soon as she enters US on L2?
Thanks.
