If your wife wants to transfer to a cap-subject employer, she will only be able to do so if the H-1 quota for the fiscal year has not been used up. If the H-1 cap has not been reached then transferring from a cap-exempt employer is no more difficult than transferring from a cap-subject employer. (though the new start date would have to be Oct. 1 or later)

All,
Any successful H1 transfers these days, pls post your experience. All that required for a transfer was latest 3 payslips and I797. Is it still the same or have things changed these days ? Can someone pls share your experience.

Do i have to leave the country? isnt there another option?
As mentioned earlier, you will be out of status so leaving the country for 15 days is the best option.
You can also apply for extension of H4 from 15 Sep. The problem with that will be of timing. If your H4 gets approved after H1 then you will be in H4 status from Sep 15. In that case you will have to again apply for change of status to H1.

I'm a july filer and planning on using AC21 to change employers,in this process I'm transfering H1-B,My passport will expire in a month however my
I-94 is valid till 2010. My question is do I need to have a new passport in hand before I transfer my H1??
PS: I've already applied for my new passport and expecting it any time.
Thanks in advance
Any ways you need to renew, so it is better that you have done it. Apply for H1 renewal after you receive the new passport. you might have to send the copies of your passport and if it was valid for less a moth, you might get rfe, so wait until you get new passport.
Good luck

Big mistake. Yes, your lawful stay in US ends on 30-Sep-2007.
With the Visa from company A expiring on 30-Sep why did you travel without getting the H1 papers from company B in hand?
You should have done either of the following
1) Got H1 stamping from company B before entering US (or)
2) Entered US with company A’s VISA (before it’s expiry) and company B’s H1 approval notice, so that the officer could stamp the I-94 as per company B’s end date.
All that you can do now is to leave the country before Sep 30th and renter US with VISA stamping from company B.

Hi,
I got laidoff recently. My company is going to withdraw H1b. I have my 140 approved from same company and my 485 pending. I have EAD and never used and working on H1B for the same company. I was working for the same company which processed my H1B.
If H1B is withdrawn is there going to be any effect on my 485? like any possibility of RFE on 485 for EVL? My employer said they will not withdraw or revoke 140.
How long will it take to withdraw H1B?
your inputs are much appreciated.

After a long journey on several non immigrant visa's my GC finally got approved. The questions that I would like to throw out for the group to think on is regarding the period for which one has to keep all the H1/H4 approval notices and supporting documents?
In my case, I have been here for 10 years and have a 15 pound folder that has all the approval notices (I-797) and supporting documents (copies of I-129, transcripts, everything under the sun)
I would hate to have to carry this for the rest of my life.
Lawyers - Your legal opinion would provide relief to my aching shoulders :)
you will need to keep them until you are naturalized. scan them and keep digital copies in a handy location, while you store these originals somewhere in the basement.

Cool picture.
What type of phone do you have that has that kind of image quality?
Exif data shows:
HTC - MDA_compact_IV .. which is the Tmobile name for the HTC Diamond :P.
It has a 3.2 megapixel camera. I do however believe that it doesnt really matter what camera you use, if you cant make good pictures with a pocket camera then a $2000 camera wont help either ;)

For those worried about not being able to live in the UK, I say "Don't worry, you are not missing a great deal".
I have lived & worked in UK for a couple of years many years back. Like most of my acquaintances at that time I didn't (want to) live there long. Most of my friends left for US, I returned to India. And then to US.
Life is US has its problems, the immigration backlog is one of them. But it is really a walk in the park compared to that in Britain. UK is one of the most racist society I have ever seen. There is racism in all countries (even in India, we call it Casteism) but no where as overt as in UK. In UK, the work culture isn't all that great, life is boring and the weather sucks. No wonder a recent investigation by BBC reported that 7 out of 10 Britons now prefer to live outside UK mainly because it's high cost of living, lack of livable space and for little more sunshine. And that number is growing every year. In % terms, that's the highest number and in absolute terms it is the 3rd highest expat population of any country, only India & China ranks higher. Britons now prefer the sunny & more livable places such as Spain (culture), Australia (language) and Florida (proximity).
When I left UK, it was with relief. Now when I visit UK on work or enroute to other countries, I feel sorry for the folks back there. I would any day prefer living in India - if not in US - than living in UK.

I agree with the post above.
I think the best option he has is to speak with the CBP officer at the port of entry and explain him the situation: that he wanted to use automatic visa revalidation and by mistake he surrendered I 94. Hopefully he will issue a new I 94 for him. But more likely he will ask him to go to the consulate and get the new stamp.
What he should NOT do is: to enter on the attached I 94 on H1 visa extension approval (the reason is technical: usually the I 94 that comes attached with change of status has the SAME number as your old I 94 attached to passport; so for practical pusposes, he has surrender both his I 94s). If he now enters with the I94 attached with H1 approval, (and as that is already cancelled when he surrendered other I 94), he will be considered present illegally. This would have much worse consequencies than to wait in Torronto and get the visa stamped.
Good Luck.

I will request to sysadmin or IV to start some Poll covering all dates according to Visa Bulletin for EB2 and EB3 for world, India and china. This poll will help everyone to see how many people are in waiting in lines and what can be expected upcoming months ....this poll will not be pin point but will give info little close to reality... Just a thought.

Once H1B is expired; one cannot renew the H1B inspite of 485 under pending. Expired EAD can be renewed but not the H1B.
