If you think to consider option 4th
As per AC-21 you can port to self employment. Creating a website, a business plan, can be done within few days and if you can prove that you were working on self employment then i think you should be okay. Ac-21 does mention they need same or similar job requirement and wages won't be a question.
Let me know if you wish to try out this option. I can give you more suggestion. However i am not sure whether this will work or not.
Maybe you can try telling the truth and see whether you can come out of this.

I am new and just discovered this thread, regarding the Talent Bill that if passed, among other benefits will let H-4s work. Anyone knows who is promoting it and who we can to make sure it is considered and debated? Thanks.

Hi,
I am on H1B visa. My parents due to a medical condition cannot take care of themselves. They need someone to be present with them 24 hrs a day. Can I get them on H4 visa as dependent? I would like to keep them for 2-3 years in US and take care of them. Please let me know my options.
Thanks in advance.

Roseball and sumkum,
Thanks for the reply. One more question. What is the validity date of your new AP? Does it start from the date of your current AP expiration date or is it from the date of approval.

Hi aperregatturv
I'm in the same situation... Did u travel before u got the card?
My case was approved on April 27, but I have got nothing on the mail so far and I have my sister's wedding to attend in my country... My husband can go later and give it to me, but I'm a little afraid.
I wanna know if evrything was ok with you and if u would recommend me to do that. I'm going crazy cause my flight is for May 11th and if I need to cancel I gotta do it 2 days in advance, no later than tomorrow I guess... I don't know If I should wait or just cancel flight. I'm going crazy!
Please let me know how it went for you. Or if anyone else have traveled in this way before, give me some advice.
Thanks to all in advance!

My Delhi Consulate Experience for my H-1B extention:
I am from Hyderabad but due to unavailability of appointments in Chennai consulate I applied through Delhi consulate. As a US Resident, I have an option of selecting any Consulate in India.
First they will check your DS 156 & DS 157 form when you are in queue to get in and also your application gets verified in a counter outside the main embassy and then you are let in, you can deposit your Cell Phones so don't leave your cell phones at home as we did, it was tough without a cell phone for half an hour after interview .
Once you get in into the embassy they do finger printing and then you are in queue to meet US Consular Agents.
While I was in queue, I saw lot of people getting rejected (mostly F1). They were asking unexpected questions to H1-B extension folks too. Questions like
1) Why did you change to this new employer?
2) How many employees does it currently have?
3) What does the company do?
4) How did you know about this company?
5) What was your masters in?
6) In my case they asked about names of the clients I was involved with through my IT services employer?
7) What are your job responsibilities?
They are trying to look at your body language and communication skills.
When I went to the counter he asked me about my previous company and current company, as mentioned above they asked me about how many clients I was involved with through my current employer. Then he said, he couldn't find my petitioner details online so he would check it and issue my visa if no further documents are required(I don't know what he meant by no further documents). I do not have my passport yet(12 Jan 09), I have submitted my docs on 9th Jan 09. I expect my visa to arrive sometime next week (hopefully). Regarding documents he did not look at any of my documents except for my passport and I-797.
I hope this helps. I am currently in India.

I checked online for my daughter's 485 and it shows approved and document(possibly GC):eek: mailed on 12 Jan. But my status shows RFE stage. Another interesting thing is my daughter got fingerprinting for Jan 15. She has already done fingerprinting with us in Dec 07. Even if it was to be approved for my daughter how it can happen that she goes for FP on 15 Jan and they mailed document. I dont know what is going on. Any suggestions?

In an amazing turn of the tables, Republicans are growing increasingly concerned that Democrats will attempt to pass immigration reform this year in order foster an internal split on the right. Since Prop 187 was passed in California in 1994, Republicans have often tried to use the immigration issue as a way to energize right wing voters and get them to oppose Democrats who are pro-immigration. Three op-ed pieces discuss that issue just in the last day. Michael Barone of the right wing American Enterprise Institute in the Wall Street Journal, Fox News co-host Morton Kondracke in Congressional Quarterly and...

I entered @ Newark in Aug 2008. The experience with using AP was smooth. I even forgot my folder with all my documents (clumsy) at the first desk which was on the lower level and the IO went and got it for me :)

Yes ,I had the same issue, try now its working good
Thanks, I will try now.
BTW USPS does not forward federal emails (and the ones where return service is requested). It may depend upon you luck if they forward it. However they do hold such mails for pickup (which is what i have done).

All: I applied for advance parole on Feb -9 , delivered Feb -11. I filed under new fees structure and hence I am exempt from fees. I clearly mentioned that in the letter. However, till date I have received no receipt. How should I handle this?

It goes for cloture vote, which require 60 votes.
Is there any hope for us...

yeah.. it doesnt work that way, the fact that your lawyer checked "d" indicated you have an advanced degree (masters and beyond). you have to prove that your BS+X exp is in fact Masters equivalent with your LC and job ads and recruitment effort etc etc. It is then at the discretion of the IO to allow the classification under EB-2, else he will issue an RFE (which he did) and even after your response to RFE, he may deny the EB-2 classification and you will have to amend it with EB-3. Your lawyer should have known this would trigger an RFE.
