Many European contries Sweden, Denmark work like that...after a Work Permit of 5 years u can apply to Perm residency (GC).....however, i would think due to the shear numbers in US , there is just too many of us, they cannot dothat...OR do not want to do it for other reasons - unexplained/racist/numbersusa rants.
As per UN guidelines, if you stay in any country continuously for 10 years, you should be able to apply for citizenship directly. US is not following this!

Pleazzzzzzzzzz,
I have explained my condition, I would appreciate any respected senior member reply for my two questions
1. Do you think DOL Report will help to simplify the issue against USCIS???
2. Do i need to be in touch with employer untill i leave the country?? as he is not ready to tell me when i have to go back but insisting that i am leaving country due to my illness should i ask him a termination latter???
(Please make a note here, looking at the events, employer has stranded me in foreign land with no money and no instructions what to do next, he is the RAREST of RARE employer.........who refuse to address/recognizes his employee after six months)

If my understanding is correct, you will will NOT be able to take advantage of OPT because MBA is the same as Masters, though the field of study is different.
Hello,
I graduated with my MS degree from a reputed university, here in the US, in June 2006. I got a job and my employer applied for my H1B immediately and the application was approved before I even started working. But to start working immediately, I had to apply for my OPT as H1B only starts in October. I think I applied for a 9 month OPT but only used a few months as my H1B started in Oct 2006. I had used 3 months of the OPT during my internship between the 1st and 2nd years of the MS program. I have been working on H1 since then (have switched jobs once) and am now keen on pursuing an MBA (full-time) starting 2010.
What I am worried about now is that when I graduate from business school, I would be on F1 visa and looking for jobs again, but would probably not have any OPT left. I am sure I am not the first one to do this, but I don't really understand how the visa situation will work then. When I graduate it will be summer 2012, and I will be on F1. To take up a job right out of school, I will need an OPT or H1B, and H1 wouldn't start till Oct, and I probably won't get any more OPT.
Can someone please provide some guidance here?
Thanks!

I can tell you the formula. Please spend some of your time for calculation:
Variables:
1. Mood of the USCIS officer adjudicating the case = a
2. Your luck = b
3. Number of times you think about this question = c
Constants
1. Your PD = x
2. The number of times a appears in your first name = y
3. Date your case was received at USCIS = z
Formula:
a*b*c/x+y+z
Please note: Use this formula at your own risk. It can explode if the value of c increases exponentially.
Very Funny:)

and this is my 10th year H1B extension that company is asking for. Again we got RFE for H1B extension. We are tired of asking for 1 year extension so by using premium option of I-140 we can get 3 years of extension. Below is the detail of I-140 RFE we got in October 2008.
1. Copy of all four years of XXXXXXXXX transcripts in Bachelor�s Degree in XXXXX Engineering;
2. Copy of company�s Form 1120 U.S. Corporation Income Tax Return for 10/01/2006 to 09/30/2007;
3. Copies of company�s Bank Statements for the year 2008 (January to Current). Please note that we only require pages of the statements showing only the monthly bank balance. We do not need the entire statement package;
4. A copy of XXXXXX W-2 for the year 2007;
5. Copies of Pay-Stubs for XXXXXXXX for the year 2008 (January to Current); and
6. Experience letters (job letters) from previous employer(s): Please note that the Job letters does not have to be original. Scanned copy or Fax copy is acceptable. JOB DUTIES, DATES AND NAMES OF EMPLOYER IN JOB LETTERS SHOULD MATCH WITH JOB RESPONSIBILITIES IN LABOR CERTIFICATION (See attached). The job letter must submitted by your prior employer(s), on the company�s letter-head containing a valid address and telephone number; are dated; singed by a representative such as a supervisor or personnel officer; clearly state the period(s) of employment, position title(s) held by the beneficiary, and duties performed by you during the specified period(s) of employments.
Hope above helps you to understand kind of trouble I am in. Please share your knowledge or experience for me.
Do you need premium processing of 140 if you are on EAD? Anyway this was designed to let people get 3 year extensions to their H1B if they don't have any other option of extending their H1B.
Can you share the content of the RFE(s) so we are able to give you relevant advice?

My husband is in his 6th year of H1-B. He has an approved PERM Labor
application ( pending I-140, EB-2, He has a Masters degree from the US in
computer engg). I am on a H1-b & have been on H status for little less than 4 years. I too have an approved PERM Labor application & an approved I-140, EB2, waiting to file for I485 due to retrogression. I had a couple of questions & would appreciate if you could
answer these for me :
1) Should he decide to quit his job & plan to study full time, would he have to
go on F-1 status or is he eligible to be on H-4 status based on my H1-B
status (even though he would have completed 6 years in H1B status by then & would be in 7th year of H-1B status based on extension received by virtue of approved PERM Labor/I-140, but I would still be in my 4th-5th year of H status with an approved PERM Labor/I-140, EB2) ?
1: He is not elgible for H4 status beyond 6 years based on ur H1, while u r under the 6 year limit.
U shud take a legal advice on the H1 to F1 part. I dont know how advisible (F1)this is. H is a dual intent VISA while F is not.
2) In another scenario, assuming my husband gets a 3 year H1-B extension (beyond the sixth year, based on approved PERM Labor/I-140), would another employer be able to file for H1-B on his behalf if he finds a job with another employer & decide to quit his present job ? If so his Green Card Processing would need to be re-started & then would he be able to retain his Priority Date. Also if his current employer chooses not to give his Labor approval/I-140 approval documents, will he still be able to change jobs & get H1-B filed from another employer.
2: He can get 3 year H1-B based on the approved labor and (after approval of I140) as long as PD is not current and his current G.C is in Process with the same or different employer.

When we talk about green card applications, is my wife and myself considered as one application?
No, Raj, that is one of our biggest problems -- dependents eat into the annual quota. The 140,000 EB annual quota does not mean that 140,000 primary applicants get green cards -- it includes the partner and kids.
Similarly when they say 271,000 EB I-485s are pending that includes primary applicant plus dependents.
There are different estimates for the average family size- the range is from 2.07 to 2.5, which means that there are about 108,400 to 130,917 primary applicant I-485s pending.

Family Based is moving forward except for F3 for Mexico and Phillipines.
EB 3 will retrogress even more:
Little if any forward movement in the Employment Third preference category is expected in the near future. Recent discussions with both Citizenship and Immigration Services (CIS) and the Department of Labor indicate that the demand for numbers with pre-August 2002 priority dates is likely to be extremely high in the coming months as both agencies continue to work on their backlogs. This could easily cause a retrogression of the current Employment Third preference cut-off dates should that demand begin to materialize at CIS offices during the spring and summer months.

My friend had her appointment for H1B stamping in Brussels on Monday. The website and consulate said it would take 3-4 working days. However, when she went there on Monday, they told her to pick up the passport on Wednesday. She picked it up earlier today (Wednesday). She did not do too much research about PIMS, as the plan was to come back on AP in case it took longer than a week.

RANT WARNING
If you dont have an EAD, and your H1 B case is filed and is waiting for apporval, you wont have a your license during that period, I am one that is in that situation. I talked to the DMV folks but they wont accept the H1 B extension receipt , they need the I - 797, so basically i cannot drive for next 2 months. A couple of member suggested it was very easy for them, i guess i am being targeted :)
As of now i feel really privileged staying here :mad:, no license, no green card, been here for past 10 years and have a post graduate degree from a US university. I guess even if you are good professionally and academically it does not matter, so much for truth, honesty , liberty and pursuit of happiness !!
i don't have H1B filed, im a permanent resident and has only incorrect data on my green card that was recently issued to me, i have I-797C Notice of Action Welcome Notice with me. is that enough document to show to DMV so they will let me take the exam? or i have to file first the I-90 and wait for six months? thank you...

What will eliminate any element of lingering doubt is if someone can come up with some kind of concept like "Consulting Employees Union". Not to be confused with labor union etc.....but more in the spirit of how Federal Credit Unions differ from Banks... Credit unions are owned by the members themselves...and they are not for the profit of owners/shareholders etc like in the case of a bank....All the profits are passed along to members.
Similarly What if one comes up with a concept of a "Employee Owned Consulting Company" EOCC :D
There might be lot of legalities involved like can a employee working on EAD or H1 or whatever for such a company can be a 'owner' (in part..however small that part may be) of that company....and still not violate any USCIS rules/regulations etc...
Sure there may be costs to run such a company...which may come from a variable (exactly what was spent), or flat fee/percentage deducted from employee pay. It could be 5% or less or more. And people wouldn't have any issue with that...As long as its not owned by a single/group of founding fathers who may eventually fall prey to the lure of dollars !
I like the idea of Union kinda organization. We are talking about this for long time. Gotta do something rather than sitting idle.

It is true that this is not confined to India. Couple of my friends went to canada for stamping and they faced weeks of delays there also with regards to PIMS. On an average they had to wait 5 weeks for the stamp.
I know of a friend who went to Mumbai consulate and it took him just a week. He recently had received his 3 year extension based on I-140. So its just not consulate and it has to do with when your H1 was approved. I think recent approvals take less time. Not sure if this is correct.
