That e-verify thing sounds reasonable, but it is dangerous. The way things work, and as we are seeing now, things like that get expanded and they grow ever more intrusive. Pretty soon people will need government permission even to breathe. In fact, the EPA now claims the right to regulate carbon dioxide, that thing we breathe out...

I recently received an inquiry at my San Francisco immigration law office from an "employer" who recently discovered that a person whom he had hired as an independent contractor was in the United States illegally. The employer had not originally known that the "employee" was illegal because independent contractors are exempt from the requirements of the Immigration Reform and Control Act (*IRCA*) (https://www.oig.lsc.gov/legis/irca86.htm) that require an employer to verify that an an employee is authorized to work in the United States. The "employer" wanted to explore the options of legalizing the contractor. While thinking about the options, I became interested in how the law defines an independent contractor.
According to 8 Code of Federal Regulations Section 274a.1(j) (http://www.californiaimmigrationlawyerblog.com/8cfr274a.1.pdf) an independent contractor is an individual or entity who carries on an independent business, contracts to do a piece of work according to their own means and methods, and are subject to control only as to results.
The decision of whether or not someone is an independent contractor is determined on a case-by-case basis. Factors to be considered include whether the individual or entity:
supplies the tools or materials;
makes services available to the general public;
works for a number of clients at the same time;
has an opportunity for profit or loss as a result of labor or services provided;
invests in the facilities for work;
directs the order or sequence in which the work is to be done and determines the hours during which the work is to be done.
I began to wonder if people used independent contractors to get around the IRCA requirements. Apparently Congress thought about that as there is a regulation which states that an "employer" may not avoid the requirements of IRCA by hiring an independent contractor if a person or entity knowingly uses a contract or subcontract to obtain labor or services of an unauthorized alien. 8 C.F.R. �274a.5 (http://www.californiaimmigrationlawyerblog.com/8cfr274a.5.pdf).

I am using swift 3D and am having trouble achieving my goal. I want on of my objects to go through 2 regular spins while the other object goes through a different regular spin. I have no problem ungrouping them or assingning the original spins. I then moved the keyframes to half of what they were defaulted to in my object that I want to go twice around. But now I cant copy the keyfames or add another spin onto the end. does anyone even know what I'm talking about let alone how to solve my problem? Thanks

Hi All,
Please help me on this. Here is the situation:
1. Company A First time H1B - Oct 1, 2004
2. Company B transfer - Jan 22, 2006
3. My current visa is expiring on Jan 22, 2009, but after Jan 22, 2009, I still have till Oct 1, 2010 to complete my 6 years of H1B.
4. Now, my wife who is on H-4 is currently in India on vacation, since she is not in US, her H-4 extension cannot be filed.
My question is, can I file my H-1 extension and go to India and get both of our visas stamped based on my extension? Or does my wife need to come back on her currently valid visa and file for her own H-4 extension?
Please advise and pardon me for my ignorance on this.
Thanks in advance,
DSP

Hello,
Here's my situation:
H1b: 7th Year (valid through Nov 2009)
Labor: Approved
140: Approved
Category: EB2
Priority Date: Aug 2007
485/EAD: cannot file due to retrogression
I have a permanent employment offer from the employer where I am contracting, right now for the same job. Following are the questions I have:
1. Can I change my employer?
2. Can I retain my Priority date?
3. If the new employer files for transfer of H1, what does it mean to my extension beyond 7th year?
Please help.
Thank you.
U need to start the GC process all over again, unless ur current employer is willing to support you in filing the I-485 without revoking the I-140

Hello All,
My priority date becomes current as of 1'st Oct 2009... I had created an Service Request 2 weeks back to check with NSC if it has been preadjudicated or not...
Here is what i received as an email response to the Service Request today-
The status of this service request is:
The processing of your case has been delayed. A check of our records establishes that your case is not yet ready for decision, as the required investigation into your background remains open.
Until the background investigation is completed, we cannot move forward on your case. These background checks are required to be completed on all applicants who apply for the immigration benefit you are seeking. We will make every effort to make a decision on this case as soon as the background checks are complete. If you do not receive a decision or other notice of action from us within 6 months of this letter, please contact us by calling our customer service number provided below.
Questions:
1. What am i supposed to do now?
2. I remember seeing a Memo back in Feb 2008 which stated that 485 can be approved after waiting for 6 months for background check and not more than that.
Please let me know if anyone else has received a similar reply in Sep 2009... Any thoughts are highly appreciated...
Thanks for all your help... These forums and community has been a great help all along!

Hi,
I have changed my employer A last year and received new I-797. However, my employer A did not applied for my wife's extension in 2006.
Now i have changed my employer to B, one week before Employer B has applied for my I-129 and my wife's I-539 extension, which is in pending state now.
My I-94 has been already extended to Sept-2009 with employer A. However my wife's I-94 is going to expire on Oct 5 2007.
She is still in status
Que. My wife has to travel to India on 1st Oct 2007 (before her I-94 expiry date). Can she travel to India as her I-539 (extension to I-94) is in pending state.
I am not sure what you mean. She cannot come back in until she has a visa stamped with her new extension. Remembering being in the country and not being out of status is based of your I-94 date, going out is not a problem but you need a current visa stamped for anyone to come back. They won't let you board the plane back to US if her visa stamped in the passport expired Oct 5th.
Appreciate your replies. Thanks so much.

This looks like the hallmark of a gang initiation ritual. The teens were probably asked to carry out an act of this nature before the gang would consider them to be tough enough. So they drive around, pick a random person, and beat him up, and the hapless victim ends up dead. Sad and bizarre.

Warning: Personal opinion.
Comprehensive Immigration Reform Bill passed by senate(S.2611) may not see the light this year - an election year.
The House of Representatives is controlled by the Republican party. It is their utmost priority to keep it that way after November elections.
Immigration is a hot issue. Having seen how nasty television commercials for candidates can turn into in hotly contested places, the war may be won or lost on immigration issue.
The President does not enjoy popularity to influence people to vote for a Republican candiate. No matter how many PR stunts he may do, it's going to have little effect, if any.
