Why do we need a transit visa if we are just passing by the airport( I know UK has this rule). Can someone please share if we really need the transit visa. I am travelling on next week to Chennai via Frankfurt.

First Step: Filter out applications based on priority date eligible as per the visa bulletin date.
Second Step: Process based on receipt date within the applications filtered out in the first step.

Guys, Any idea how much time NSC is taking for EAD approval? This is for a fresh application not renewal.

At this point no one knows answers to you questions. We have to wait and we will see. Ultimately, USCIS could avoid lots of headaches by accepting all July applications and issuing a new bulletin for August...but we don't know, and nobody knows what will eventually happen.
There is no way USCIS can accept July applications. They said there is no visa available for FY-2007. Now how they will accept more applications? Basis on what? If they accept applications that means they had enough visa available but they did not want to process in which case the a law suit is imminent.

Hi , is the limit for 240 days only or TILL we get the approval ?. What do we need to after 240 days ?. Thanks.
You can work upto 240 days after your H1 expiry date while your H1B is pending. To continue working from 241st day, you would need EAD otherwise stop working until the decision is made on H1B.

1. Can I travel and enter on my H1 even if my AP is approved/pending?
Yes, you can travel and enter into USA on your H1 visa even if your AP is approved or pending as long as your visa has a valid stamping.
2. Is it safer to travel on AP even if I have a valid/invalid H1 stamped on my passport?
If you have an invalid H1 stamping on your passport, then AP is the only way to enter into USA. On the other hand, If you have a valid stamping and also have an approved AP, you can use either H1 or AP to enter into USA.
3. Can my wife enter on H4 and then we add her name to 485 when she is in US?
If you have a valid H1 Visa, your wife can enter on H4. Regarding adding your wife's name to your 485 case, I am not sure, but I believe you have to wait until your PD becomes current.
Consulting an attorney is the best option, I believe. Good luck!

I have personally seen few indian-nationals with US-GCs telecommuting on short-term (arround 30 days) while on vacation in india paid only in usa payroll and paying only USA taxes. The same may be applicable for AOS/AP/EAD.
I think.
short term (arround 30 days) - may be ok.
vacation or telecommuting for longer duration (not sure about max # of days) is considered as abandoning AOS.
I fully agree with mcq except for duration part.
Here's how I see it.
If you are employed by a US company and are on the US payroll of that company, and they are paying your salary into your US bank account, then I would say, that even though you may be working remotely in an Indian office of that US company - then yes, you need the EAD.
Why - you might ask. Very simply, if you are on the US payroll you need to have an I-9 on file with the company. You can only file an I-9 if you have the legal right to work in the US for that company (EAD / GC / Citizen / H1B etc).
so what it all boils down to is, no matter where you are working in the world for the company, if you are on the US payroll, you need an I-9, to file the I-9 you need a legal right to work, and that for you means the EAD.
one other thing. I believe that you also need to be in the US to file for and receive the AP & EAD.
Hope that helps

After 6 months of EAD a person can change jobs, but his hiring company should give him the same title in which his application for a GC is filed.
(Same title and should be able to show that the company can pay him the pw)
So working for your own company after 6 months of EAD is kind of risk.You can work for a friend's company who can support you.
Please consult your lawyer.....
always seek legal advice.

1. Logically HUD document should work but again we are talking about Indian government so not sure. Insurance document might not work and I'm almost certain about it.
2. Notarizing: If the website says "Photocopy of all supporting documents including Photo should be notarized and attached to the application" then yes..
Not sure where you live but if it is driving distance then I suggest you go there.. Leave early and park on the north side of the street (it is free).
Need advise from someone who renewed Indian passport by mail at the San Francisco Indian Consulate.
My wife filled the application online and is ready to mail it, but there are questions regarding the supporting docs.
1)Proof of Residence:CGISF website shows applicable docs as Driving license or PG&E, Water or landline telephone bill displaying applicant�s address or
House Lease Agreement.
However in my wife's case, her name is not on any of the utility bills mentioned above and her Driving license has the old address.
Can we use the HUD-1 closing statement or home title as proof. Or can we use a insurance bill for this purpose? If not, please advise on other options.
2)Notarizing:I understand photo copies of any docs that I sent needs to be notarized.
Is there anything else that needs to be notarized?Your website says that "If applying by mail, Photocopy of all supporting documents including Photo should be notarized and attached to the application".
Do I need to notarize both the photos from page 1 and page 4? Please clarify.

Ask them what the exact restriction is. It could be something as simple as needing a copy of your driver's license.
This is probably somebody at the plan administrator who doesn't have the foggiest idea about US immigration law.

Excellent. I am new in this cage..but I am proud to be here. I will definetly donate generously for 4 core for future lobbying. Also I would think..we need 2 avoid anti-immigration media such as CNN etc. I saw WSJ, Business Week, CNBC(Brian William news at 6.30), CNBC Maria, Washington post, New york time and some other local news paper helping us with covergae on this issue. We shouldn't be helping Lou dobb's kind of guys to boost his ratings. I decided to stay away from that chap!! and CNN. I know many of my friends regulary watch CNN and I advised everyone to switch to other channel..what u guys think. Once again congts all.. sleep well and enjoy..

I am on my 7th year H1B. I got a 3yr extension from my current employer based on approved I140. I have the I140 receipt number but do not have a copy of 140 (my employer refuses to give it).
I also do not have the LCA for Perm filing.
My 485 has been filed more than 6 months ago.
I do have the new I797 (till 2010) for my H1B extension from my current company.
1. Is it possible for a new company to do my H1B transfer without a copy of I140 ?
2. Is I140 required to do EAD extension ?
3. What are the consequences of not having an actual I140 copy with new employer in future.?
If 180 days have passed after I-140 approval, then there is nothing to worry about not having a copy of I-140.
