Hey, my friend just got admission in a college and since she is not a US citizen or permanent resident. So, she needed a co-signer who is one but unfortunetly she couldnt get one cuz no one other then your own family member will trust u and sign and affidavit or co-sign a loan. Now her aunt who came with her husband on his work visa,been living for 9 yrs, recetly went out of status(I dont know the reason as its personal) has bank account and of course some savings. So my friend's aunt signed the Affidavit for my friend that was required by the university in order to process the student visa. Now after the application is filed, my friend is worried and maybe you can help her answer the questions. Her english isnt so good so Im going this for her(thu mine is bad too :)
-I do know one thing that if a person getting a student loan is not a US citizen/permanent resident she/he would need a co-signer who is one and I also know that for sure that the loan agency check the credit history of a co-signer. SO,since my friend's aunt isnt a permant resident or a US citizen(she is out of status in fact) so she cannot be my friend's co-signer for the student loan BUT what about Affidavit?
do the Immigration check the backgound of the person who signed the Affidavit,attached with her bank statments, for the student visa process or they mainly will check the student's background? my friend is concerned as she doesnt want her aunt to be in any trouble!

help me with this guys: My employer applied for an H-1B under the Master's cap, but I've been RFE'd. I think this is cause the job is classified as only requiring a Bachelor's degree. If that is the case, would it be possible to withdraw my application and reapply under the regular cap? Is this a good idea? And am I right that there are tougher requirements for being accepted in the Master's cap than the regular cap?
I'm meeting with my boss tomorrow to discuss this so please reply quick!!!

Just want to know that is there any law
which help to get overtime for full time employee.
I know if you consultant you get paid by hours but not when you become full time employee.
Overtime is paid only if you are a non-exempt employee - usually means you get paid hourly. If you are an exempt employee, then you are not eligible for overtime. Not sure if this is different in different states, but that is how it works in Ohio.

The most recent update from the USCIS is showing again a steady approval rate. The jump we saw in October was just due to a more current update of the approval, nit an increase in filing according to the USCIS. If this pace will continue we will see visas all through early 2010, but I may be wrong here...
Ao here is is the update from USCIS: As of November 6, 2009, approximately 54,700 H-1B (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) cap-subject petitions had been filed. USCIS has approved sufficient H1-B petitions for aliens with advanced degrees to meet the exemption of 20,000 from the fiscal year 2010 cap. Any H1-B petitions filed on behalf of an alien with an advanced degree will now count toward the general H1-B cap of 65,000. USCIS will continue to accept both cap-subject petitions and advanced degree petitions until a sufficient number of H-1B petitions have been received to reach the statutory limits, taking into account the fact that some of these petitions may be denied, revoked, or withdrawn.

My LC (non-RIR) is stuck in BPC since Feb'05 which is also my PD. After lot of convincing up to my VP level they finally at least agreed to have a healthy discussion with lawyer to see the pros and cons of converting the application to PERM while retaining PD.
My understanding is, there is no conversion. The old application from BPC has to be with drawn and re-filed under PERM. I meet other requirements to keep the PD like same job title etc..
Question is, H1 expires in Feb'07 and will apply for extension in Aug'06. Should I wait till Aug to have H1 extended using premium processing and then convert to PERM. Is there a risk of re-filing under PERM prior to H1 extension. PERM takes few months for the company to prepare, can they kick start the process now without withdrawing the LC?
thank you.

I and my wife are on EAD here and my wife had to go to India urgently on an Advance Parole that was expired last month. Can I apply for the AP renewal for her while she is in India, so that she can come back without any problems? Please let me know what options do I have. I am hoping that she would not be out of status or staying illegally here. Any answers would be very much appreciated. Thanks all.
Please tell me what options I have with me now.
There is an opiton you can apply for a "re-entry" permit for a person outside US. But it is a very difficult route, go thru an attorney, who can help you in the right way.

Hi,
I�m in 4th year of H1b and I485 - 180 days completed. I�m looking for full time jobs and many of the companies are asking for EAD for full time jobs and some of my friends suggested use H1b instead of EAD. Pls help me in answering the below questions
1. What is the problem I will face if I use EAD instead of H1b?
2. Job titles are most of them are different like Senior Software Engineer, MSI Systems Integrators, Data engineer etc, where as my appointment letter/I140 shows as a Programmer. Will it be difficult to raise AC21 though the some of responsibilities are similar.
3. Employer can revoke I140 even If I�m working with him and crossed 180 days of I485.
Please Advice.

Hi,
I have a pretty simple question.
A person decides to change employers, moving from company A to company B. It's been 180 days after 485 filing.
Question: what does company B have to do to legally take this person on as full time employee? Is the process any different than taking any other american resident employee? The way I understand is it is not any different.
Please advise,
Thanks,
Vlad
Nothing. The employee must have EAD. That's all. Also, the employee should, but does not have to, ask for a letter with duties to be sent to USCIS to keep USCIS informed of the change.

The bottom of the "Receipting & Lockbox" update clearly says that it may take upto 14 days to get physical receipt or Checks cashed for the dates they say Current. Which means July 2nd 485 apps are declared Current on Aug 17th , so the receipts can come as late as Aug31st i.e after Labor day weekend Sep 4th.

Guys:
I wanted to know that if somebody has currently an approved LC and I-140(EB-3) with Company A and decided to change jobs to Company B, who would now file under EB-2.
a) Can he hold on to his EB3 priority date..though the new petition would be filed under EB-2 ?
Yes, I know a lot of ppl have asked this question in the wake of the retrogession that we are all sufferning through ?
b) If this Company B were to file for H1-B , as I understand it would count towards the 2007-2008 quota which opens on April 1st '07...does this scenario also force you to not start working till Oct'07 (which is when ppl who file in the 2007-08 quota are supposed to start working).
What I am trying to understand is that in this scenario can you change jobs and start to work for Company B without having to wait till Oct'07 ?
Thanks

I'm an unmarried Indian national and came to the US on H-1B visa. My father petitioned for me in FB F1 category. My priority date is September 1, 1999. I applied for AOS in the US and received my EAD and AP. I recently met a girl doing job on H-1B(Indian national) and we will like to tie the knot in near future. I was wondering if it would have any effect on my AOS processing( I do not have the actual Green card yet). Will my category change to F3 if I marry her now? Any suggestions/ideas are welcome.
Thanks.
Thanks.

in case he application is denied, will there be any time mentioned in the denied form or not? thanks for your input
Go ahead and apply, as long as you get the receipt before expiry date on her I-94, you should be fine. You will have to be ready for her return to India ASAP if her extension petition is denied, as she might start incurring illegal stay, which might create hindrance for her next visit or her next VISA application.
It would be a good idea to state about her anticipated visit to other states etc. instead of other reason.
It is likely that she might get RFE, but it should all be answerable.

Depends on where you are going and the route you are taking. You have to clarify transit visa issues. Many airlines will require a transit visa if you don't have the green card.
