I had been in H-1B status and was laid off. My H-1B was withdrawn by my company on 12/31/2010. I applied for COS to B2 and received the USCIS receipt notice on Dec 17th, a few days before my H-1B was withdrawn.
Later on Feb 2nd, 2011, I received the approval notice from USCIS for B2 valid from 02/02/2011 to 04/29/2011(I had informed in my application that this would be my date of departure.) My question is: What status would I be from the date my H-1B was withdrawn till the B2 validity start date?
Forum members, please clarify.
Thanks

Folks,
I am trying to put together documents for my wife's 485 application. The birth certificate was re-issued a couple of years back (with corrections to her mother's name and including her last name which was missing earlier).
The lawyer says we need to put a good reason down for 'why a corrected birth certificate was not obtained until now'.
Do you guys know of a good reason to provide USCIS? Know of any reason which was accepted in case of your friends?
Please do advise. Thanks!

My case is currently at the local West Palm Beach office in FL and I have moved to TX. I filed online AR-11 and change of address for my pending I-485 (EB3 India 2003). I received a letter stating:
After careful review of your request, it has been determined that your issues will be best addressed by the USCIS office having jurisdiction over your case. Therefore we have taken the liberty of forwarding your service request, number to the Missouri Field Office.
I don't know what the Missouri field office has to do with anything. What are my options at this point? Can I request them to not change the local field office (to minimize the chance of screwups)?
Thanks

The New York Times carried on its front page this morning a Nina Bernstein article that will no doubt cause a shake up at Immigration and Customs Enforcement over what can only be described as a major scandal in the way the agency has dealt with sick detainees at the agency's detention facilities around the country. The details described by Bernstein will no doubt enrage you. The obvious monumental effort Ms. Bernstein put in to bringing this story will also likely move her on to the short list for a Pulitzer Prize for this hard-hitting piece of journalism.

I asked my attorney if we could anything about the delay in the issuance of EAD. My attorney mentioned that she would send an e-mail to USCIS. Is there an e-mail id that attorneys use to contact USCIS ? Offcourse, I could have asked my attorney, but I thought I would post the question here first.

You need to get a copy of 140, so you may have to tell your employer about your AC21 (actually no need if you have a copy of approved 140). Nothing to get scared of. But its good to leave in good terms.
Once you start using EAD your H1 will get cancelled anyway. So it wont make any difference if your old employer cancels it.
Good Luck!

Reid Eyes Rules Changes To Restrict Amendments (http://www.rollcall.com/issues/53_10/news/19488-1.html) By Emily Pierce, ROLL CALL STAFF, July 23, 2007
After nearly seven months of battling Republican filibusters and controversial amendments on the Senate floor, Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said Friday he may seek to change Senate rules to make it easier to restrict amendments on the floor.
Reid said Rules and Administration Chairwoman Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) would be tasked with exploring what rules changes should be made.
Noting that there has been a "growing breakdown between the majority and minority in terms of how to get things done," Howard Gantman, Feinstein's chief of staff for the Rules panel, said the committee would conduct a "comprehensive review" and look at the rules on the germaneness of amendments and how long Senators have to review proposals before voting on them.
"Sen. Feinstein is very serious about looking at the vast range of amendments that are brought in at the last minute that are not germane," said Gantman. He added that the panel's focus would be on "how to better get things done."
Reid spokesman Jim Manley cautioned that Reid "has no intention of unilaterally seeking a rules change."
However, Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) scoffed at the notion of limiting or restricting Senators' ability to offer amendments, which he likened to freedom of speech.
"Look, nobody's going to shut anybody up in the Senate," he said at a press conference Friday. "There's going to be robust debate. You can just write that down. And I understand Sen. Reid's frustrations, but we're not going to establish any speech police in the Senate - not now, not ever."
Reid apparently reached his boiling point Thursday night when Republicans used Senate budget rules to offer a number of non-germane amendments to a student loan financing bill.
"What went on last night was ridiculous," Reid said on the Senate floor. "We should change those rules. ... We will have to take a look at that."
Reid said Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Chairman Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) and ranking member Mike Enzi (R-Wyo.) managed the student loan measure "very well until it ran into the rule that we have here that allows unending amendments on any subject forever, literally, before you get to final passage."
Because the higher education bill - by virtue of its status as a budget reconciliation measure - was immune to filibuster, Senate rules permitted unlimited amendments to be offered and voted on. On Thursday night, in particular, Senators were given only a few minutes to review the substance of some amendments before they were asked to vote on them.
As is customary with budget and reconciliation measures, Senators engaged in a long series of back-to-back votes, known as a "vote-a-rama," at the end of the debate. But Democrats said Republicans' insistence on having 14 non-germane votes - including six related to cutting taxes, three related to immigration and two related to terrorism - was excessive.
When Democrats pushed back with their own non-germane amendment expressing the Senate's opinion that President Bush should not pardon Vice President Cheney's former chief of staff, Scooter Libby, Republicans tried to force a vote on former President Bill Clinton's controversial pardons.
But before the Senate could vote on that, Reid asked that both the Libby vote and the GOP pardons amendment be stricken from the Congressional Record, and the chamber voted on final passage of the bill.
Manley explained: "These so-called vote-a-ramas are bad for the system, and they may lead to bad policy. As have leaders in the past, all Sen. Reid was doing was expressing his frustration at the Republicans' desire to score cheap political points at the expense of a good-faith effort to pass a bill that will make college education more affordable for more Americans."
Even though Reid is seeking a Rules panel review, the rules governing Thursday night's debate actually fall under the Congressional Budget Act. If Reid were to seek a change in the Budget Act, the Senate would have to pass legislation and it would have to be signed into law by the president.
However, changes to Senate rules require 67 votes to pass.

The Los Angeles City Council has approved a measure barring city workers for traveling to Arizona on official business and also banning the city from contracting with Arizona businesses. Some contracts for key infrastructure items are not affected, but the LA Times estimates that the vote will cost Arizona upwards of $8 million per year. The biggest contracts not affected are those involving the airport and sea port. But the civilian panels overseeing them are considering canceling contracts worth $26 million. On Monday, Boulder, Colorado will vote on a similar measure. San Jose votes next month.

Hi,
My family had visited me way back in 2004 on a visitor visa. Due to unavoidable circumstances, they had to stay beyond the stipulated 6 months ( for 2 more months). We had requested the govt. for extension approval and it had been granted then.
We would like to have them visit us again by Nov of this year. However, when they went for the visa to consulate(last week), it got rejected, because the consulate person informed them that they had overstayed last time around.
I would like to know when can I legally apply for the visa again? And is there a way I could enhance my chances of an approval, rather than a rejection, next time I try. I am working on an EAD and my husband had filed for I485 for our family(I140 approved stage).
Any advise would be appreciated.

From AIC director Ben Johnson: Ben Johnson, Executive Director of the American Immigration Council, noted upon release of the memo: �Ultimately, responsibility for failing to reform our dysfunctional immigration system rests on Congress. However, it is rarely the case that a President�s hands are tied by existing law�and where the President disagrees with current law, his or her policy choices regarding the implementation of...

My cousin who came here on H4, found a company that sponsored her H1-b and she was working as a consultant to a big firm. She had to return to home country last year, and she had to get her papers stamped - which was denied.
she continues to work for the same firm from India. She has a house in the US, that she has put on market, and continues to pay the mortgage. Does she realistically have a chance of returning to the US on H1-B?

I am currently on H1B and in the process of leaving my current employer XYZ Inc. I also have an EAD that I haven't used yet but plan to use going forward. I understand that XYZ will and is rather obligated to notify USCIS of termination of my H1B employment by virtue of which, USICS will take steps to revoke the H1B petition. That being said,
1. Will I (beneficiary) and / or XYZ (petitioner) will receive a notice saying my H1B petition has been revoked?
2. Will it help in any shape or form if I were to fill an (back dated) I-9 form with XYZ indicating that I was already on EAD with XYZ before my termination? In this case, is XYZ still obligated to notify USCIS of termination of my H1B employment?
3. What constitutes a "bona fide termination" and is this even applicable in my case? Should I have a formal resignation letter in place for audit / RFE purposes down the road, if any?

Hello
Well need some help. I moved from H1-B to F1 visa to do masters. Now I want to quit F1 in middle and go back to doing H1-B and continue masters part time.
I know there are still slots open for H1-B for 2010. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Now I can do summer internship untill August 26, the question is, how can I work for the employer for the month of September? since H1B starts on Oct 1st. I can do CPT full time but, then again I heard you can not quit CPT in middle of the semester.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Yours Sincerely
Ashok R. Anumula
