Did you have to get it in advance or did you get it on arrival?
I got this in advance. But, it does not apply to you as you have a GC and you don't need a Mexican visa.

I have been owning for 7 years now. I bought the first one in 2000 and sold it in 2005 - though most of 2001 and 2002 were in recession, I still made 200% of what I invested. But do not see house as an investment. For me i want a place when I retire. If it appreciates its good.
I have my mortgage with penfed.org. They have the best rate available. They are slow though - do not expect them to close within 30 days.
Good luck.

They will not get I-94 for more than 6 months. You need to do following things to claim them as dependet(s) -
1. Extend their stay beyond I-94 i.e. 6 months.
2. Get ITIN number for them. (I am not sure how you get it on B1/B2)
This is the primary reason, immigration does not give more than 6 months I-94 on B1/B2 and avoid extending their stay....even if those are genuine reason(s).
My parents only stay here for about 170 days/year. Though, for every 30 days they stayed here last year, I can count 10 days towards their substantial presence in the US this year. That's how they can pass substantial presence without staying more than 180 days any single year. And B1/B2 visa holders can get ITINs. Undocumented immigrants who had no visas, in many states could use their ITINs to get Driver Licenses. IRS recently cracked down on this practice and asked all agencies to stop accepting ITINs as a form of identification and also made it harder to get an ITIN, but visa holders can get one. You may need to take the applicant (with their valid passport and visa) to an IRS office for verification. They can then accept the form in person, and return you a stamped copy of the application

Why do you guys have such a hard time believing....
Law says what it says
Visa bulletin has the notce
Berkleybee isn't saying anything in that conversation with DOS which isn't already covered by the law or the note in 2005 visa bulletin.
Still; everyone is thinking it is a mistake and it is going to get current in 3 to 4months?
The cynic in me believes that everyone thinks it is just a matter of time before it becomes current or there is significant movements in dates. This is dead wrong. All one needs to do is look at data coming out from backlog processing centers; amount of 245i labors; statistics on how many people have come on h-1b; l-1's, b visas, f visas, amont of perm labor approvals; amount of greencards approved over the last five years.
It is going to be a very, very long time before there is significant movement in dates.
The cynic in me thinks Berkleybee posted it in immigration.com so that people may now get the message the dates aren't going to move. They aren't going to move significantly next year either. There is TOO many people going for greencards.
As long as people think that the dates are going to move, then they sit on the fence and don't do much to get rid of retrogression.
I am sure if people could get convinced that in current environment; visa dates will never get current then people may have some urgency in participating to get rid of retrogression.

Hi Guys,
My LCA has Computer Software Engineer as job title.I have 5 years of Experience as Oracle functional consultant.Currently I'm working as Oracle consultant.My 140 is approved and got my EAD card.In jan 2008 it will be 180 days of filing 485.I want to change my career towards IT Sales.
I have an offer from an American Staffing company as a Technical Recruiter.The job responsibilities include hiring Software Engineers.But the job title is different from my LCA.I want to join this company using EAD in jan 2008 and apply AC 21.Today I have checked with my Lawyer this is what she says"
In instances such as this, when we send the letter to the USCIS regarding AC21, we include the following details with reference to the job title. � Although the job title differs, the job duties are substantially the same. The title used by the company is their internal designation for this position."
She says that i will be able to work as Technical Recruiter using EAD.Any one can suggest me on this?I have very little knowledge about AC 21 and how it works
Thanks in advance

Although I agree with you on principle...that cannot bring people in numbers. There will always be people who don't agree with each other. leadership involves channeling both parties energies, those who agree with me and those who don't agree. Sounding arrogant, feeling proud of what I did better than others and looking down upon people who don't agree with me, doesn't help me, right? Who am I to judge somebody's attitude and achievements?
While i whole heartedly agree with what you stated above i don't think this idea is going to work. IV certainly will not want to take the risk of anti-immigrants being part of the advocacy effort and skewing things on the day. Messing up before the representatives will not do IV's credibility and good.
Infact all the donars in this site who keep asking me for donations would not want even me to be at the advocacy even if i donate, seeing how i disagree with them on principle. They would not want to risk me being part of the advocacy group
If i who believe in IV but does not believe in the approach as the approach does not provide relief to badly retrogressed categories is a risk for advocacy then the risk of anti immigrants being part of advocacy is even bigger
On a side note it is good to see some one from EB2 having a rational argument and calling a spade a spade

Did you join them on H1B and then move to EAD? Did you change your I-9 form when you did that? If you didn't, as far as they are concerned, you might still be on H1B and so they might feel a need to inform the USCIS. If not, well, there really is nothing in the rule book that says they have to inform the USCIS that an EAD holder left employment.

please don't post information you are not sure of. unless employer withdraws H1 there is no way USCIS can know of this. (Employers are not legally bound to file for H1 withdrawal) Also I would like to know the source of your 'zero tolerance' policy in regards to H1. In fact they forgive upto 6 months of 'unauthorized' employment when processing I-485. (http://www.murthy.com/news/n_nscuna.html). If they wanted to have 'zero tolerance' they would have forced employers to withdraw H1 or atleast inform USCIS of layoff.
Also you say "one should inform USCIS before I-485 is approved'. Again this is wrong information.
Please do not start fear mongering based on incomplete information.
I hope you "heard" it from others too and i read those things from some immigration sites . Don't have exact link. And GOD save folks from USCIS when people say they have N number of days of grace period for H1B status .

Thanks for responding.
I was going back through the statements that we received from the Insurance Company. The statements shows OASDI tax withheld, which is the SS tax. I believe, the employer is equally responsible to contribute 6.2% of the income to the SS and 1.45% to medicare. That means, this income should be added to the SS wages and medicare wages by the employer. I would be complaining about this employer tomorrow to IRS.
bbct :
My wife was on maternity leave last year. She was paid partially by the State and partially by a 3rd party insurance company. Her employer did not pay for these, so they did not include it on her W2.
I am not sure if your case is similar, but this is what I know about maternity leave benefits. BTW I am in CA, so I am not sure how it works for other states.
AFAIK, Short term disability payments are not taxed by Fed and State. We got a W-2 from the 3rd party ins company. This W2 only mentions the payments as "Third-party sick pay" and does not add to the gross W2 wages. My wife also took the CA paid family leave which is paid by the State. We got a 1099-G from the state for this. AFAIK, the paid family leave payments are taxable by Fed but not by CA state. BTW, fathers are also eligible for this paid family leave in CA within the 1st birthday of the baby.

I applied for my H1B 9th year extension using I-140 substitution in 10th March 2008. My 8th year H1B was expired on 14th April 2008. Currently my 9th year H1B extension was is in pending status. Unfortunately my I-140 was denied on 18th April 2008 due to 4 years Bachelors degree.
I used PERM EB2 labor substitution (May 2006 PD) and filed I-140 in July 2007 and denied (NSC) directly with out RFE. This is due to 4 years bachelor's degree and I have 10+2+3(Diploma) +3 (engineering-AMIE). I already applied my 485, EAD and AP. I got AP and EAD, but didn’t use it. I have 12 years of experience before prior to the EB2 Labor Pirority Date.
Now how can I get my 9th year extension?
Can I appeal for I-140 and get 9th year H1B extension?
Could you please give me your valuable suggestions on this?
Thanks,
Naga

Gurus,
Here is my situation:
I-140 approved - PD: May '06
I-485 filed - July 30 '07 (India)
EAD cards - Received
APs - Received
Due to a slowdown in their business, my employer is laying me off in Dec '07. I'm still short of 1 month to complete my 180 days of I-485 filling. However, they said they will not withdraw my I-140 and, to help me, will in fact keep me on their payroll until Jan '08, with my Jan '08 salary as my severance and my official status as on "paid leave". So far, so good.
I also have a job offer, and my new employer wants me to join them in Dec '07, on EAD. My question is: Can I be officially on the payroll of two companies simultaneously on H-1B and/or EAD? If yes, do I need to inform the USCIS of my status (new employer; AC21)? My other option is to say No to the new (attractive) job offer (or to try to convince them to wait until Feb '08, which they'll likely not agree to), and and take up another job in Feb '08, on EAD / H-1B transfer, using AC21. Please advise whether I'm fine with using the first option!!
I don't think there is any rule stating that you cannot join a new employer before finishing 180 days of AOS pending. I joined my new employer as soon as I filed my I-485. Although, I transfered my H1B also (did not use EAD).
If your previous employer has assured you that they will not revoke your I-140, then I think you can freely go ahead with your new job by transferring your H1B. Although, USCIS will not give you a 3 year H1B extension because you have already filed AOS.
I am in exactly the same situation as you are, in fact I have already jumped into this new boat quite some time ago.

Listen,
What difference does it make if it is EB@ or EB3, the point is, we should stand UNITED we all benefit. If the recapture visa bill passes, then we all will benefit.
Please don't post any more viewpoints stating " I wont fight"
It is your loss and everyone's . If you choose to step out of IV and fight all by yourself, I wish you all the best.
We senior members have been fighting for the greater cause, it for you junior members to carry this forward. The foundation of IV has to be strong, it has been strong.
IV has not patience for people who want to discriminate between EB2 or EB3, we need people who see a broader perspective of things, EB community as a whole.
If the recapture visa bill passes, think we all will benefit, will we still question about EB2 or EB3.
Please be wise and be patient, we need everyone to change this system

You need to have your old I-140 approved to port PD to your new I-140. If the old 140 is not approved by the time you file you new 140...thats fine. At a later stage when your old 140 gets approved have your lawyer send a letter to the processing center with PD porting request for the new one. At that time your new 140 can be in processing stage.
Hope this helps.
My Old I-140 (EB2) from previous employer is already approved but i left that company and joined a new company. I checked status of my Old I-140 online till today it shows approved and i have the original copy of my Old approved I-140. So the question is do i need to send a letter for porting the date after new I-140 is approved or the letter can be sent along with the application for new I-140. OR file new I-140 and later on send a letter to port priority date.
Second option that comes to my mind is, joining the previous employer again next year... but i am still thinking about that, i am already in my 5th year of H1b.
Thanks.
