Can I apply for H4 along with H1B (my spouse)? If not, when is the earliest time I can apply for it and in average, how long will it take to change of status from F2 to H4?
Also, If I am currently under F1 visa, can I change of status to H4 while studying? Is there any requirement that I have to change of status from F1 to H4 before I complete my studying a number of specified days/months?
One more thing, I heard that if I have Canadian PR, I am allowed to work in the US, is that right? If so, how long can they work in the US?
Thank you very much for your help.

Just happen to see your signature file and found that you have a RD around end of June 2007 at TSC. I think we can use it as data reference to say TSC processing time will go to at least end of June 2007, from 04/30/2007. That is probably a good news for whose files in TSC.

Thanks man (or woman, whoever you are). Good to know this.
It means that your wife is approved as well...but don't know why different languages and text for both of you. But nothing to worry about it...

for $20/month. Contributed $120 already. I think the information and knowledge i gain here is worth much more than $20/month. Thanks for your efforts. Go IV !!!

We also would be happy if we can get the visa re-stamping inside the US rather going to Home country or any other country. We dont have to spend huge amount and struck for months outside the country and lose job...

You envy the ones who got the GC and pity the once who got shipped.
That is unnecessary comment & I forgive you for that. Hope you get it right the next time.

...I think a great deal depends on the person at the counter at InfoPass, or the one on the phone in case of NCSC.
I took infopass this Monday at the local Chicago office. The guy basically said he cannot do anything...also said they cannot do anything even if I don't receive the card after 90 days. I then had an SR filed yesterday afternoon by calling NCSC...in this case the guy was nice and he even included my wife's EAD app info on the SR.
EAD e-filed: May 27th
FP: June 19th
First card production ordered email: June 28th
Second card production ordered email: July 29th
I took infopass appoinment for August 1st.

1. I'm happy for those who can file for I-485 now. good luck, file it soon. don't delay.
2. But for the other applicants who are struck in BEC from 2003/2004, we are with you and we will work with IV to address EB related GC issues. I know BEC set Sept 30, 2007 as final date to process pending labor applications and many cases are approved.
So wait and fight for few more months and then file I-140/485 concurrently. IV will keep these people in their mind and will work hard during CIR or strive bill discussion so that no restrictions are put on your application while filing I-140/485. our prayers are with you.
Since the dates are going to retrogress in next few months or so, we need to request USCIS & lawmakers to allow filing I-485 even if visa numbers are not current, exempt spouse & dependents from quota, remove hard country limit, and so on....

I have H1-b petition approval but i dont have h1-I-94 card.
Is it legal to work without h1-I-94 Card?
Do i need to travel out side of country ?
Read the approval letter. It states that you would need to travel outside the US and apply for H1 visa at US Consulate abroad. If your visa is granted then you can re-enter US with new I-94 card. Stay inside US without a valid I-94 is considered Out-Of-Status.

We have 2 threads talking about the same topic.. contribution .. While it's good to see both threads getting lot of hits, I suggest that we merge both of these threads so that we all get on the same page. Half the members are responding in one thread while other half are on the other thread and I think it's kind of distracting.
Mods, if you agree please merge the threads.

Do we get a confirmation once a "referred friend" becomes a member? I want to keep tab on who has signed up so that I can follow up with them.
Do you mean an email confirmation? I dont think that is possible. It is better we call them up and make sure they signed up!
Thanks Immilaw.
Everyone, please bring just ONE member to IV by Dec 31st!

Mine is approved on June25th. No card till now. I talked to IO and he said that he sees it in printing queue( Not yet Printed ). They printed approvals from June 19th on July 14th. So I am hoping they print mine this week.

The fact is it looks like you don't seem to understand the magnitute of problem as logiclife is trying to put forth. Its not the question of 10% or 25%. If this law passes, It would be hard to get hired by a prospective employer, transfer or extend your H1B, As they would back off from employing H1B's. So no Microsoft or IBM would be willing to spend time trying to prove that they need people on H1B. Not just Hi-tech sector but this law would affect each and everyone who is currently on H1B or who are trying to get on to H1B. It would be stupid to think that once everyone one is gone, you could pick those left behind because these jobs would start moving out of the country in a much larger scale than you could imagine.
This is actually a very good idea. Maybe not 10% even 25% is fine.
This way microsoft, oracle etc. can get their workers.
Even Deloitte, PWC they hire americans and pay you when you're on bench.
Unlike most indian consulting companies, which don't pay you when you're on bench and make you lie on your resume.

If USCIS is planning on using up all 40K by July 2, and not accepting applications why would they put out a memo like this?
questions are never ending, the only thing in our control is to push our lawyer to file asap.

USCIS to Suspend Premium Processing for All I-140 Petitions Beginning July 2
06/28/2007
In a press release issued today, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has announced that it will impose a temporary suspension of premium processing services for all Form I-140 immigrant worker petitions from July 2, 2007 to August 1, 2007. Premium services are being suspended because USCIS expects a surge of I-140 filings beginning on July 2, when immigrant visa priority dates become current for nearly all employment-based categories. The agency anticipates that, due to the high volume of filings, it will be unable to meet the 15-day processing goal of the service.
During the 30-day period, USCIS plans to review its decision to halt premium processing of I-140s, and could extend the suspension beyond August 1 if, due to its workload, the agency remains unable to guarantee 15-day processing. Note that premium processing services are currently suspended for I-140 petitions for which a labor certification substitution is being requested, pursuant to a new Department of Labor (DOL) regulation that prohibits substitution of labor certification beneficiaries beginning July 16, 2007.

Personally this is what I think: we should ask Mr. Gotcher to help us on a pro bono basis as a favor. At the same time, let him know that we will collect contributions from willing members and all will go to him to cover his expenses. I suggest this for a couple of reasons. First, raising money can take time. And we don’t know how many are willing to contribute. We may be stuck here posting “come on guys we have $3k we need another $2k before anything gets done”. Also, I think a lot more people will be happy to put in their money when they see some actions and movements. This way work can get started soon.
