Hi,
I too have the same question. Isnt EAD a non-immigrant status unlike H1B? So, how can one apply for GC on a non-immigrant status? I might be wrong though.
>> Isn't EAD a non-immigrant status unlike H1B?
EAD is not a status. EAD is just Employment Authorization Document. I-485 pending (AoS Pending) is the status.
>> So, how can one apply for GC on a non-immigrant status?
GC can, also, be applied for someone who is not even in US. Kind of status in US has nothing to do with GC process, as long as one is in valid (authorized) status.

Hello,
I am currently on H4 visa and I am planning to pursue an MBA program. If i choose to study in H4, i know i qualify for the California resident fee discount. If i change my visa to F1 for studies, would i not be eligible for the california resident discount? or would i lose the residency status?
Thanks.
Hi, My wife was in similar situation and I can provide following advice:
If the school is public, then you need to stand benefit of resident tuition fees. However, keep an eye on the bigger picture, that is your career after the school. These days its difficuilt to get H1, although good MBAs should not have this problem. Some CA schools allow OPT and consider time on your H4 for OPT if you were a FULL TIME STUDENT on H4. But you can change status to F1 just before filing OPT (6 months or so) I.e. Be in H4 Status for 3 semesters and be full time student and change to F1 in 4th semester and right away file for OPT or CPT. You will need to work out the technical details of this. Hence you can take advantage of the best of the both worlds.
If it is a private school, resident or non resident fees dont matter. H4 is of no benefit in this case, file for F1 right away.

I had a soft LUD on my+spouse 485 application today. I am current for this sept but will not be in Oct. Since there are no visa numbers available, I am guessing this must be either a potential RFE or my previous company lawyers may have withdrawn my G-28 representation
Does anyone know if before an RFE , would they or did they get a SOFT LUD, is this common?
Also if my previous attorney withdrew G-28 forms, will this also result in soft lud?

Alright all,
Celebrating the good news here.
Question: Did anybody receive confirmation about their AOS applications being returned after filling in early July (Say on the 2nd or 3rd)? I know there have been rumors about a few returned applications but I haven't actually found anyone in such situation + my attorneys confirmed today that USCIS specifically instructed not to return/reject them.

So is the economic downturn over already, if you look at the recent H1B filings it may well be the case. United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has updated its periodic count of FY2010 H-1B cap (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) filings, revealing that there has been a significant increase in the rate of filings during the month of October 2009. USCIS has stated that it has received a sufficient number of petitions to use all of the available 20,000 H-1B numbers that are reserved for individuals with advanced degrees from U.S. colleges or universities, which means that the "advanced degree" H-1B cap for FY2010 has been reached. H-1Bs for individuals with advanced degrees from U.S. colleges or universities can still be filed, but those petitions will now count toward the general H-1B cap of 65,000.
Around 6,200 cap-subject H-1B (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) petitions were filed in October 2009. This is a significant number, especially when compared to the only 1,500 filings received by USCIS in September 2009. In total, as of October 25, 2009, approximately 52,800 H-1B petitions that count against the congressionally-mandated 65,000 limit have been received by USCIS. This leaves only around 12,000 H-1B cap numbers for FY2010, without taking into account the 6,800 H-1B cap numbers that are reserved for nationals of Chile and Singapore. If all 6,800 of these "reserved" numbers are removed from the 65,000 cap along with the 52,800 H-1B cap petitions already received, there are only around 5,400 FY2010 H-1B cap numbers remaining.
As a practical matter, USCIS will likely accept well more than 5,400 additional cap cases in FY2010, as the number of cases USCIS will accept anticipates that a certain number of filings will be withdrawn or denied. Additionally, nowhere near the full 6,800 Chile/Singapore numbers have historically been actually used by nationals of Chile or Singapore. Thus, most of those numbers are applied by USCIS to the general 65,000 cap.
While USCIS is still accepting H-1B petitions for FY 2010, the recent jump in filing means that by mid December or so we will have no Visas left. My advice go ahead and file now.

Hi All,
My friend got laid off on Dec 19th 2008. And he got another job, but the new employer is not providing him Group Health Insurance. They are asking to take him Individual Family plan and saying they will reimburse. But the problem is, he is in Albany, NY and he got to know that they are no individual plans in NY which is really odd.
He wants to use COBRA but it's really expensive 1200$ per month. But luckily we saw that there is a 65% discount for people who laid off between 1st Sept 2008 and Dec 31st 2008.
But want to know whether H1b employees are eligible for this discount or only American Citizens and Green Card holders?
Please find IRS article regarding the same.

Thanks for the reply.
1. I got my H1B extended while I am here in US. After going back to India, are there any issues in getting the visa revalidated, since an immigration petition has been filed on my behalf?
2. Is H1-B extension based on I-140 possible when not in US?

Dear All,
1. Can someone please let me know what I should take with me when I meet the USCIS civil surgeon? Who gives the Form - I-693? My lawyer has not attached that form in her mails to me? Does the hospital provide or should I take one with me myself?
2. How is the procedure usually with the USCIS civil Surgeon? What does the surgeon do and how is the examination like?
Please help me understand this process better. I am aware of the vaccinations I should take but I am not aware of the procedure with the surgeons.
Thank you very much.
Best Regards,
Augustus
