My employer sent the documents for my H1b extension today to USCIS and they applied it through premium process, can anyone please let me know how many days it will take to get the Receipt notice both in Email and hardcopy?
My H1b expires on Dec 15th 2010 and if I wont get my receipt notice by than can I stay in US legally or should I have to leave US?
Please let me know your suggestion.
H1b extension Receipt Notice issue time in PP
You will get the acknowledgment within 3 to 4 days of receipt.
If you do not get receipt, then you are out of status and will have to leave the country. But don't worry you will have the receipt before Dec 15. BTW which center did you apply to?

they will not straightforward deny it...they will send you an RFE requesting proof that you were in legal status during that time. at that time - i am not sure how - but your employer will have to prove that your start date is in fact in january 2007.
i am pretty sure that is the course of action as i recall reading a couple of cases like that and i think atleast one of those cases was a similar case and the other was related to 245(i) - i hope i get that right.

i think it is based on the LC requirements. For EB2, u need " A petition for a foreign professional holding an advanced degree may be filed when the job requires an advanced degree (beyond the baccalaureate) and the alien possesses such a degree or the equivalent. The petition must include documentation, such as an official academic record showing that the alien has a U.S. advanced degree or a foreign equivalent degree, or an official academic record showing that the alien has a U.S. baccalaureate degree or a foreign equivalent degree and letters from current or former employers showing that the alien has at least 5 years of progressive post-baccalaureate experience in the specialty."
Let me know if i am wrong

Hi-
My H1 visa is getting expired in Sep'08 and I will be going to to India during Nov'08 for my wedding, followed by my H1 Visa stamping/H4 for my wife at Chennai Consulate.
My question is, in a normal scenario how long does it takes for the H4 dependent Visa approval/Passport Issue ? Does it differs from each of the consulate office in India ??
Because I heard from some of my friends, that lately the US consulate in India does the back ground checking for the dependent visa(H4) and it
takes minimum of 4 weeks of time to approve the VISA and send it to you.
As I don't have vacation and need to report to the client, I am planning to return to US with in 3 weeks from the date of marriage.
Would it be possible to get mine & my wife's visa before 3.5 weeks of time ??
Lately, if anyone of you have gone through this kind of scenario, please update me on this. I truly appreciate it.
Thanks
Sam

1. Yes it is true that nurses and physical therapists dont need to undergo any labour certification process. They can file the I140 directly. The only thing that they need to do before filing an I140 is that the hospital in which they are working will have to post an internal ad for 10 days. The ad will display the nurse wage and other details. Once you are done with displaying it for 10 days they can file the I140 directly.
2. Nurse dont fall under H1B category. There is a specail category called T1 visa under which they fall. Since nurse degree is not at par with other graduation degrees like physical therapists they will not fall under H1. Irrespective of that, if the GC is filed for a nurse it will automatically go under the EB3 category.
PTs and nurses had a special provision in 2005 and 2006 where they were getting green card on arrival. It is called a Schedule A category which gave 50k visas to these medical professionals few years back. At that time the requirement for nurse and PT was quite high and that's what caused the Bush administration to introduce those 50k visas. These visa exhausted soon and since Oct 2006 this category is also retrogressed.
We dont know when the nurses and PTs will see the relief again; till then they continue to fall under the long EB3 queue.
Hope that helps

Thanks for your suggestion. My lawyer says that it's fine to have Computer Information Systems as per Education Evaluation draft. Though my lawyers are well experienced, I'm felling little bit doubtful on this.
I would appreciate if any lawyer advises or responds to my question.

AILA Leadership Has Just Posted the Following:
As many regular readers of this blog know, I am impressed by the amazing work of Vivek Wadhwa, research associate at Harvard, and an entrepreneur in residence at Duke. This week his most recently published article, The University Of Competition (http://www.outlookindia.com/full.asp?fodname=20090622&fname=GCol+Vivek+Wadhwa+(F)&sid=1), in Outlook India, points out the obvious--"with its flawed immigration policies, the U.S. has exported part of its economic stimulus and is providing a windfall of premium talent to these countries (India and China)."
Vivek also appeared in a NPR's Marketplace segment on how sophisticated engineering jobs are disappearing from the U.S. and moving to India (http://marketplace.publicradio.org/www_publicradio/tools/media_player/popup.php?name=marketplace/pm/2009/06/17/marketplace_cast2_20090617_64). The report by Janet Babin starts with an unemployed Silicon Valley engineer and ends with Wim Elfrink � Cisco�s Chief Globalization Officer who is based in Bangalore. In that piece, Vivek discusses how the world has changed and how companies now need to be near growth markets.
This pieces and other recent pieces show that plodding ideas about commissions and study groups to recommend visa numbers are relics of a past age. The question is, will Congress act quickly enough on immigration reform to actually make a difference in helping our economy recover. Every immigration lawyer knows these simple truths--lazy people do not walk across the desert. And, its corollary--the Hope that is American attracts those willing to work hard to succeed. Well, the former principle is still true, at least for now. The latter is giving way to hopelessness--backlogged visa numbers ("encased in amber"), and a growing and vibrant economy in China and India. The failure to act quickly is going to cost America in the long run. Let's pray someone in the White House and on Capitol starts this immigration reform discussion moving before it is too late.https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/186823568153827945-2392842088350390333?l=ailaleadership.blogspot.com

Pay stub amount is not in issue. Paystub is submitted as evidence that you are working (and thus in valid status on day you file the H1). As for visa, a valid visa in ppt can be used for travel though you have changed employers. But on reentry you must show the original receipt notice of employer (to whom you transferred). If you have got the approval, show that to get an extended I-94 and documenting correct employer on the I-94 and USCIS records.

It has become quite a hassle to obtain a California state driver's license or state identification card ("ID") when you are a non-immigrant such as in F, M, or J status (students, students in vocational schools, cultural exchange students). Recently Immigration Customs and Enforcement issued a fact sheet on applying for a driver's license or ID card for non immigrants in F, M or J status. (http://www.californiaimmigrationlawyerblog.com/Applying%20for%20a%20Driver%27s%20License.pdf). The fact sheet is helpful as it provides basic information on how to apply for a driver's license or ID card. It is not state specific but it does list all of the websites for all of the Department of Motor Vehicle offices in the United States.
The steps in applying for a driver's license or ID card in California are listed on the California Department of Motor Vehicles website (http://www.dmv.ca.gov/dl/checklists/id.htm). You must do the following in this order:
Obtain a Social Security number
Complete a Driver License or Identification Card Application
Present an acceptable birth date/legal presence document
Pay the application fee
In order to obtain a Social Security number, you must go to a local Social Security office. You may find out more about the process on the Social Security Administration's website (http://www.ssa.gov/ssnumber/). For those in F, M, and J status, you will find additional guidance by reviewing Social Security's electronic fact sheet, "Social Security numbers for non-citizens. (http://www.ssa.gov/pubs/10096.html#3)"
The fact sheet issued by ICE is useful because it provides an email address to use in case the DMV does not issue the driver's license or identification card. It has been difficult in the past to get the immigration authorities to communicate with the DMV about a person's immigration status. In the fact sheet, ICE promises a one-to-two day turn around once they receive a request for information as to why a student's ID or driver's license was not issued. This is great news as students have suffered a great deal of frustration in the past waiting for the agencies to communicate with one another.

With not many 'easy' H1b cases anymore. This looks like another route for the 'attorney' to get more clients, selling fear!
I agree !! it is definitely bad news and many may end up spending more on a plastic card. more business for lawyers !!!
maybe guiness book of world records should have an entry for the costliest plastic card I just hope and pray that future generations have better options at home and in different countries and links such as these point out the hard truth that everyone needs to have a plan B - and be mobile and ready to move. (i.e. not get stuck with immovable assets).

My employer had applied 485 based on EB2. I have the approved ETA case number of the labor certificate and occupation code. My 140 is also approved. I have a US masters degree. I want to move on to a new company which has a minimum requirement of BS + 5 years (which will come under EB2).
But I am not sure if he applied my labor as MS only or equivalent. He is not willing to reveal those details. Can you please tell is there a way I can find that out from the ETA case number?
Thank you all!
