Hello,
I will be getting married to a H1 holder in India and because of the time involved in obtaining a marriage certificate, am planning to leave shortly after the wedding with my existing B2/tourist visa. What are my options of applying for a H4 once I do that - would I have to come back to India to apply for that, or can it be done from Canada/Mexico - are there any risks pertaining to intent of travel associated with such an action. Thanking you in advance for valuable help in this matter!
You would be better off stamping your H4 in India, my 2 cents. Especially B1/B2 to any non-immigrant visas most of the time is a mess in my opinion.

Yea now I see your problem. When I applied for my F-1, my parents had not yet filed their I-140. Yours, on the other hand, has already been approved.
The worst thing that I can think of is changing status to F-1 is denied.

Is this EB2 or EB3? How many yrs. experience did you have when filing for labor?
Which center filed NSC or TSC?

I am in the same boat. Could someone answer this question ? I am trying to get affidavit from parents and the header reads "Affidavit of <wife's name> (known as <wife's previous name> at the time of birth". Is that good enough? BC has her pre-marriage name but it got issues just last week.
Thx
BC should always have wife's maiden name.. and affidavits can have wife's current name!!! That works out very well... thats how I got it for my wife.

Hello,This is my first time here.
I am graduated F-1 students and now working in my OPT period
OPT valid 4/1/2008-3/31/2009.
I am gonna send application for H-1b on 4/1/2009.
If H-1b approved in April or May 2009.
My Questions are:
Can i work and stay in US during 4/1/2009-5/31 ?
( what is my status,OPT expired on 3/31/2009,H-1B not approved)
Can i work and stay in US druing 6/1/2009-10/1/2009
(What is my status?)
Thank you !
You cannot work beyond the last day of your OPT work authorization.
You say you are going to apply for an H1. This can only be done by an employer who has already fulfilled a labor conditions application on your behalf.
Once your OPT finishes you cannot just stay in the US to wait and see what happens. You will need to leave and if your visa application is approved you can get a visa stamp at your local US consulate and enter the US again within two weeks of your first date of employment which cannot be before October 1st 2009.

The backlog is so huge that there is no "light" at the end of the tunnel
FB immigration is capped at 480K and EB immigration at 140K. Both are backlogged.. the ratio of cases is also perhaps 3:1 or 4:1, so the bulk of those pendng 485s are likely to be family based. the EB I-485 cases are probably somewhere around 250k of that 750k...
Also, what is a backlogged case? USCIS has been changing the definition as they see fit. At one point cases that were pending FBI namecheck were not counted in backlogs!

Folks,
It is outrageous that NSC is not churning out any post April 2004 approvals for EB2-I. Is any one is taking any actions?
What can be done?
How do you know that NSC is not processing the post April 2004 EB-2 cases? any source like infopass or calling the customer service?

... Michael Michael Michael.... you do such nice work... there's always a jewel in the center with a bit of tweakin... that's what I love about your work! Many possibilities with one pic! :)
Aw, shucks <blush>... I'll work on my tweakin' some more. I like your version, to be sure, but my goal is to make it look exactly like it looked when I shot it. I got about a million sunset shots at the world famous Canon beach. I'll see what I can do with those. Thanks for the input, as always!
