Yes you can but at some point it is safer for you to have worked for at least some time with Company A. Please confirm with others.
Between, you just invoke AC21 automatically under the guidelines - there is nothing to "file" per se, unless you want to send out your new offer letter to USCIS along with other supporting documents.

My cousin is and was in very good terms with employer. He talked to the manager and the HR and managed to change position but not the title(on paper). If you think your PD is light years away , you can convince your company to do the same. My cousin made sure that the HR is well aware of this in case they get an RFE. If you wish, then 6 months before you think u'll get your GC-- switch to Technical position to be safe...
All this is an issue only if you get an RFE.
There is always a risk though

I am sure the idea is nice, but have you seen the immigration support polls among American citizens?
with struggling economy and jobs, less and less Americans are supporting any kind of immigration. Legal, or Illegal, they dont care. No one, I mean no one will support us in a way that can be heard by media and the people in high seats. This is our battle and we must fight it alone. Others will help only if we show green, or some kind of benefit of their own.

Hi Folks:
Thank You for your interest. I just reserved the conference room at Tysons Pimmit Library 7584 Leesburg Pike Falls Church, VA 22043 - (703) 790-8088 on 5/9/2009 from 3PM-5PM.
I expressed interest to lead the MD chapter but definitely looking for support to build our chapter.
Agenda for the meeting:
nixstor would be updating us on the following issues.
(1) State Department's Forecast on the Visa Bulletin for the remainder of
the year
(2) Immigration legislation progress on the hill & WH so far
(3) Miken Institute Global conference on Housing and Immigration.
(4) DC/MD/VA chapter
Thanks,
Rayoflight
P.S Ask for the conference room at the library.
For those who are in MD and wondering why the Tysons location
(1) Unlike the Montgomery County Library facilities, Fairfax County library meeting rooms are free.
(2) Tyson's Pimmit is conveniently located off of 495.

You can transfer your status from H1 to F1 using a "change of status" form. The main issue is getting the F1 visa stamp. In the visa application form, there is a question which asks whether anybody has filed an immigrant petition on your behalf. As I-140 has been applied/approved, you will have to answer yes for that question. This will show immigrant-intent: but F1 visa is strictly non-immigrant intent - you have to show that you are not planning to stay in US. <--- You will have issues proving this.
I don't think that you will have any issues if you don't go for visa stamp and stay in US during the duration of your studies.

HI,
I received a 500$ check for apartment referral , I am planning to give the entire amount to the person who took the apartment. I was wondering if during the tax return filing I should be reporting this as an income and if yes should I be deducting the tax amount from the 500$ as I will be paying taxes on it.
Any information is appreciated.
Thanks,
Budy this is an immigration forum, not a tax one.

Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) isn�t wasting any time with his immigration agenda, dropping a bill on the first day of Congress that goes after birthright citizenship.
King�s measure would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act, ending automatic citizenship for anyone born in the country. Instead, the measure requires that only the children of citizens, legal immigrants permanently living in the country or immigrants in the military, be granted citizenship.
Republicans grabbed headlines last summer after Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) criticized the longstanding law, saying it encourages pregnant women to come to the country to have children so they can eventually become citizens themselves.
Though others have called for changing the 14th Amendment, King said that ending birthright citizenship through statute makes sense because it�s easier to do.
�We need to address anchor babies,� he told POLITICO Wednesday. �This isn�t what our founding fathers intended.�
Immigration legislation isn�t high on the list of priorities for House GOP leaders.
At least five other members � Reps. Phil Gingrey (R-Ga.), Gary Miller (R-Calif.), Rob Woodall (R-Ga.), Brian Bilbray (R-Calif.) and Dana Rohrabacher (R-Calif.) � are co-sponsoring King�s measure.

In another company required this letter.
Also Company using illegal pirated software to make product ..
What i have to do?

The dude is an anti-immigrant. He wants people to some ideas that are illegal so that he can show everyone that desis do illegal things.
Dude you cannot even write proper English. You do not even deserve to be in this country if you are legal. You better go back to your country.
If you are an anti, your English shows why you are out of job and blame immigrants. Go and learn English, get some skills and you will find a job. Otherwise go to Africa and help humanity. That is the best job.

For members doing the Calculations..............
According to DHS | CIS Ombudsman Updates:
During FY 2009 and FY 2010, usage of family-based visas has been exceptionally low, especially among spouses and children of green card holders (the F-2A preference category). In FY 2009, approximately 10,000 family-based visas were unused and, by statute, were reallocated for use by employment-based immigrants in FY 2010.
Given FY 2009 underutilization of family-based visas, the CIS Ombudsman has worked alongside United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and the Department of State (DOS) to monitor family-based visa usage in FY 2010. To enable more family-based visa applicants to become eligible for final processing, the Visa Bulletin cut-off dates have been accelerating significantly. Despite the fact that more family members are becoming eligible, demand for family-based visas remains weak. While efforts are underway to facilitate maximum utilization, a significant number of family-based visas may again go unused in FY 2010.

My PERM was filed and I got the following email from my lawyers
" Labor Certification by ABC ABC, Inc. on your behalf has been submitted via the Department of Labor�s (DOL) Permanent Online System as of the above date (April 1) . The application will be adjudicated by a National PERM Processing Center. As the DOL does not currently have a processing schedule for PERM applications, we are unable to predict how long processing will take. In the past, PERM applications have been adjudicated anywhere from a few weeks to several months. Unfortunately, there is currently no way for beneficiaries to check the status of the application. We will contact you as soon as we hear anything specific regarding your case. "
1. Is there any place where you can check the status ? Since I do not have any reference number, and from the text of the email, I doubt that.
2. I checked some forums and found that the average processing time is 60 days. Which processing center should I be looking for ? (I work at Oracle in SFO)

I believe you have to be in the US when your 140 is applied. Same goes for 485. Check with your lawyer. Once 140 or 485 is applied, you can travel outside.
For 485 you do indeed need to be in the US (for yoiu adjust status, you need to be in some status in the US). However for I-140 you need not be in the US. Can you point to any law or any link on any forum that says you need to be present for filing the I-140?
The complete GC process can be done without ever entering the US (do LC, file I-140, then do Consular processing for the final stage)

HI Folks
The reason for this post is as usual- too much confusion and no clear answers. i read on oh law firm that if you are not in a non-immigrant status i.e are working on EAD, there should be no gap in your EAD while you are working. Meanin you should stop working if your current EAD expires and your new EAD is pending- otherwise its a violation of law and provisions of 245 do not protect you because technically you are NOT a non-immigrant.
Is that true?????
Now, i recently had to go to India for an emergency, and had to come back on AP- did not have time to get my H1b visa stamped. I asked at the immigration counter if my H1b is invalidated and he told me it is. I spoke to my lawyer and she told me if you resume your H1b employment with the same employer- you are back in status- i kinda did not buy that though.
Can someone please shed light. My concern is that my EAD is expired- new one is pinding. Although i was on h1b when i left for India, but came back using AP. Am i breaking a law by working??
thanks
If you resume the job you were doing before you left, you do not need EAD. If you switch employment, then you have to use EAD.
