AILA Leadership Has Just Posted the Following:
The Senators are coming, the Senators are coming! That's right, the Senate is debating the DHS Appropriations bill right now, and immigration amendments are being offered. I blogged about the Sessions E-Verify proposal yesterday. Well bill, that passed by voice vote this morning, but not before the Senate voted down a proposal from Senator Schumer to table the Sessions proposal. Senator Leahy, in an astute move prior to the vote on Sessions' E-Verify bill, amended that bill to include a permanent extension of the EB-5 Regional Pilot Program. So, Leahy's amendment permanently extending the EB-5 Regional Pilot Program was approved too!
Senator DeMint from South Carolina threw in a bill to mandate the construction of actual fences along 700 miles of the Southern Border, taking away the right of DHS/CBP to decide how best to protect that border. That has also passed.
Senator Hatch has now introduced a bill which includes positive changes including undoing the Widow Penalty, and a religious worker extension and a rural doctors program extension. You can still call the Senate Switchboard to voice your support for this latter bill, and your disgust with the Senate passage of laws without debate that will affect millions of lives and cost billions of dollars. You can reach your Senator by calling 202-224-3121.
All of these amendments, of course, must now go back to a conference committee with the House, and there is no guarantee that any of them will become law. But, lest you thought your time to relax from calling your Congressman was over, it has now started again. Get on the phone and start demanding REAL Immigration Reform, rather than this piecemeal junk.https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/186823568153827945-7232301415393625463?l=ailaleadership.blogspot.com

Thanks.
I did it for my wife. If your spouse plans to use H1B even after 6 years of its expiry, then having her own I-140 will help to get 3 year extensions

Query on behalf of a friend -
What are the timelines for I-539 Change of Status for H1 to H4?
Is premium processing option available for the this change of status?
Friend worked till last week of pregnancy (clean H1 history before). Her 12 weeks of maternity leave is ending soon and looks like the family needs to pay attention to child's condition and she has no choice but to become a full-time mom (another full-time job in itself though). She was in status during her maternity leave (some part of which was covered by STD insurance, remaining unpaid leave totaling 12 weeks under FMLA). She needs to change her status from H1 to H4.

If you are on H-1, you cannot apply for L-1. You would have to work for a company outside the US for a period of 1 year before you can apply for a L-1 assuming you are in the US currently.

What is my status from Jun 14th to June 25th ? Am I in status because I have a I94 valid till June 24th or will I be out of status for those 10 days ?
Can I work and have my payroll run for hose 10 days (June 15th to June 24th).....
Many times I-94 is issued for I-797 end date + 10 calendar days. These 10 additional days are given person can wrap up things, but he/she is not allowed to work for these 10 days. That's reason for I-94 date of June 24th, even though I-797 authorization ends on June 14th.
Your attorney should have asked for extension starting with June 15th, since old I-797 work authorization expires on June 14th, 2010.
Now, you are in status, but can not work from June 15th until June 24th. That could be leave without any pay.

Hi Uma,
As you mentioned that I need to apply the transfer through a Lawyer, I am little confused.
My consulting company with whom my H1B exists and to which my wife's H1B to H4 transfer is planned, have sent me the required documents "I539, Application to Extend/Change Non-immigrant Status" and asked me to send them to USCIS myself.
Is this fine ?
Thank you.

Folks make sure the A number is same in both applications, if they are different USCIS puts it aside and will not process, I found out today while getting my address verified with USCIS IO, they had entered my address wrongly.
WHile checking the IO said it was good that my wife's derivate app under me, and her self 485 App A numbers match. Otherwise, they put it in pending state forever.

Nothing - this thread may not have merit. Please close this thread
It has limited relevance, the issue is the integrity of the Senator, he has admitted to the issue at hand but he went on the Senate floor as an elected public official to make declaratory and restrictionist anti-immigration statements, attacked immigrants, proposed and supported anti-immigrant ammendments and all this with the foundation of his positive public image, integrity and moral uprightness. We are thus not discussing the list he is on, but are simply taking note of the Senator's credibility on an issue that affects us. Anything beyond that would be inappropriate and not relevant to our issues.

I-140 Premium processing upgrade receipt number
Dear firends.,
My lawayer upgraded to premium processing for I-140 on June 20th,2007. Will I get a new receipt number or should I keep checking the status for the original I-140 receipt number
Please advise
Thanks
I'm in same boat, upgraded to PP on June 1. your new status of I140 will be "We received request for PP". usually they update the online status on friday night. Expect an RFE early next week, they just want more time, so they send some non-sense RFE. RFE resets the 15 day clock.

I enter US four times this year by using AP, same airport, but different experience. 1st, 2nd and 3rd entry was sent to secondary check. But the 4th entry, the CBP said it's unnecessary for secondary check and fill new I-94 because previous officers are new guys, don't know the rule. I thought 1st entry is definitely need go secondary check.

USCIS website does not shows that my I-485 has been denied but instead it says that it has been sent to AAO office(appeal processing office).
No I have not yet called attorney on extending EAD based on I-140 denial.
------------------------------
Is your 485 also denied? Most of the times when ever 140 is denied then the underlying 485 also gets denied and if that is the case then you cannot apply or extend for EAD or AP until your appeal is pending with AAO. I may be wrong so consult an attorney.
BTW....did you consult the attorney? If yes, what did they tell you?

What happens to the people who graduated from the institute and applied for gc on its basis?
It depends. If the University was never accredited by a recognized accreditation board, then USCIS would never have accepted that degree. If it was accredited before being shut down, then you might stand a chance. But if as someone has posted the university never had a .edu domain, then I doubt it was accredited by a recognized board at all.

Now question is: Indian Bachelor or US Bachelor ?
Mine is 3 years Indian BS and they need 4 years US BS.
As per NSC Indian BS ( We have up to TY means third year-3 years ) is not equivelent to US BS ( Four year for Bachelor )

U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents (LPR) of the U.S. who are pre-approved, low-risk travelers are eligible to participate in the Global Entry Program, which allows expedited clearance upon arrival from international travel. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) began their pilot system on June 6, 2009, in seven airport locations throughout the United States. Beginning August 24, 2009, the Global Entry Program will expand the program to include kiosks at 13 additional international U.S. airports including airports in Boston, Massachusetts; Dallas, Texas; Detroit, Michigan; Fort Lauderdale, Florida; Honolulu, Hawaii; Las Vegas, Nevada; N.J.; Orlando, Florida; Sanford, Florida; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; San Juan, Puerto Rico; San Francisco, California, and Seattle, Washington.
Upon arrival from international travel, approved members of the Global Entry Program will use kiosks and complete their CBP processing. After answering customs declaration questions on the kiosk’s touch-screen, a transaction receipt will be printed. The receipt will be presented to CBP officers before leaving the inspection area. This program is an alternative to regular passport processing lines. Thus, individuals wishing to utilize the program may complete their interview and biometric data collection at enrollment centers at any of the Global Entry sites.
More information on the Global Entry Program (http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/travel/trusted_traveler/global_entry/) is available at the CBP Web site.
