Hi,
I am a resident of the Chennai Consular District and I made an emergency appointment (returning US worker-H visa) for my H-1 renewal visa at New Delhi through the vfs website. I was not able to find any appointments at the Chennai consulate. I happened to know today through the New Delhi Embassy website that their emergency appointments are reserved only for residents of the New Delhi Consular District. I'm confused as to how/why the vfs website allowed me to make an appointment without providing this information. I am now unable to find any regular appointments available at New Delhi or emergency appointments at Chennai.
Also, the vfs website has a news update from Dec.4th stating that anyone (fluent in english) can now apply at New Delhi, Chennai or Mumbai. I do not know if this precludes the emergency appointment requirement at New Delhi as stated above or if this is a more up to date info.
If anyone here has any information/experience about this, I would appreciate a response.
Thank you.

Hello
I came to us on h4 visa . after comming here i joined a university and applied for change of status to f1 and it is approved. I am planning a trip to india. do i need to go to indian consulate for f1 visa? if i have to go wat r the chances of rejecting f1 visa? if my f1 visa gets rejected can i come back on h4 visa? is my h4 visa valid? or do i need to apply for h4 visa again? and if i apply wat r the chances of approval ? please help me i am in a tough situation. please i need ur advise. thank u :)
Since your spouse is in US on H1, do you know if she/he filed for his I-140/I-485. If so, there are chances that your F-1 visa can be rejected on the grounds of "potential immigrant" even though your I-485 is not filed. F-1 can be rejected because your spouse has shown immigrant intent which means you could be a potential immigrant as well.
Otherwise, if you have all the documents (educational background from accredited university, bank statements, valid I-20), you should get your F-1 visa without any issues. If for some reason its denied, then you can use your current valid H4 visa to re-enter US on H4. In that case, you will again roll back to H4 status upon re-entry.

no replies? cant believe i am the only one in this situation :)
please fix your profile, it helps others and helps you get right answers too given everything is context sensitive.
I did contemplate not filing for AP and keeping h1 and infact planned to get stamping; but after long thoughts i let it go. I figured not filing AP is not worth the risk.
IMO you should get AP and then travel, you sure can go for h1 stamping.

my wife is US citizen , applied for permanent residency (green card) almost 6 months back , my interview was 2 days back, everything went thru alrite, the immigration officer said at the end of interview , " your case been aproved, but we did not get the background chk from FBI , as soon as we get it we are going to mail you the green card "
is this normal? i checked "case status' on USCIS website, they still have some update from 4 months back ...
plz help, hope i posted in the right sub-forum this time..
I have a friend who is stuck in background check for 2+ years (same situation, a spouse of a US citizen). Hope it won't happen to you! Not much you can do now, just wait. If you do not get any response within a year, consider suing the USCIS (that's what my friend is doing).

I received this private message from Sledge_Hammer. This is the person, who gets irritated when someone writes "u" instead of "you". He also has issues with other's control and understanding of English language. Over here, he has given me full exposure of his command over English language. Thank you --

Your life story!
You're a fucking son of a rotten whore that was fucked both ways by a rabid dog on the streets of Dharavi slums. While the dog was fucking your mother she was having such a good time that she even offered to lick the semen off of the dog's penis once it was done. Of course, while all of this was going on, your dad was getting ass fucked by your uncle, your grandfather, his father, and all the slum dwellers.
Nine months later you were born. You are the product of your mom's eggs and the rabid dog's semen.
Have a good day!
WOAH, LOL i can just imagine the hindi/punjabi version of it!:D

First complete your profile so person who is viewing your case understands you better.
You have enough time. Find new job and then new employer can process your Eb2 GC. I-140 can be done in 15 days with premium processing.

What's Ahead with SkyMiles (http://www.delta.com/skymiles/about_skymiles/skymiles_program_updates/index.jsp)
Can you please specify process to donate miles. I have 21,000 miles with Delta that will expire soon and I don't intend to use it.

Both my wife and I also received a RFE on June 29th but don't know the content of the RFE because haven't received the CIS letter yet. I did submit the BC, however, so I hope that the RFE is not for BC. I don't know what else it could be.. I have been scratching my head since I got the email yesterday. Also called CIS but they wouldn't tell me what the RFE is about.

I applied for my PERM Labor Certification on 06-Aug-2007. My status online shows "APPROVED"on 13-Aug-2007. My Lawyer says that the HARD COPY is needed to move forward (My priority date is Jan-2006 from a prior Labor/I-140 approval).
1. How long does it usually take for the Hard copy to reach the attorney's office after approval.
2. Is there any way I can apply for I-140/485 by August 17th given that my status shows "APPROVED" as of today (August 14th).
Any suggestions?
This is another classical case of attorney screw up. If only your attorney had filed 6 days earlier, you could have filed for your I-140 and I-485 concurrently.

Dear Friends,
I finally got my RIR/EB-3 approved. My lawyer just mailed out EB-3/I-140. Now, our parent company is trying to transfer me there to work for them. Because the parent company has totally different name and tax id, that means I will need to start from H1B-PERM-I140 all over again.
If I start working for the parent company before the current EB-3/I-140 gets approved, will I still be able to use its Priority Date when I apply for the new EB-2/I-140 under parentcompany? What if the parent company decide to close down my current company before EB-3/I-140 gets approved, will that I-140 still be valid?
Any input is welcome and appreciated.
Thanks much!

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.

I e-filed yesterday and the address came as USCIS Nebraska Service Center, as expected. My 485 is pending there and my previous EAD was also from NSC.
Where was your last EAD and 485 applied and processed at?
Hello All
Has any one else experienced this? From the two posters above (which includes me) EAD and AP efiled applications went to National Benefits Center and generated the receipt numbers starting with MSC?
Please share your experience. Is there any thing to worry in this case?

It looks to me like they made a mistake on the valid dates for the new EAD. That happened to me last year, I received my new EAD card and it was only good for 1.5 months.
I had to mail them the card and after a couple of calls and some headaches they sent me a new EAD card, this time valid for 2 years.
Good luck!

Dear All:
I am currently in my 7th year on H-1B (with I-140 approved) and my H-1B Visa expired a year ago and my current I-94 valid until next 2 years (same case for my dependants).
I am switching my employer now and my family is planning to goto India and when they go for visa stamping through my new employer - do you think they will get into the trouble because my visa (with old employer) is already expired?
And FYI - myself/my fmaily already had US Visas stamped for atleast 4-5times already in the past through various employers.
The primary applicant's H1-B status must be valid for the dependent to get H-4 VISA stamp. The primary's own VISA stamp is not an issue.

Is it possible to convert or interfile an existing EB based I-485 application to FB based I-485?
I have pending I-485 through an approved I-140 (EB). PD is not current. I recently got married and my spouse is a US Citizen. We are considering pursueing FB application. Reading through the forums I gather that my spouse has to file I-130 and I file for I-485. My question is regarding I-485.
If I have to file for a new I-485, what happens to the existing one? Do I have to get new medical exam? Can I use existing AP, EAD or can I use EAD/AP that I currently have from my EB based application?
If an interfiling is possible, when should this be done - concurrently along with I-130 filing or we have to wait till I-130 is approved? Also what is the procedure for "interfiling"?
Which option is better?
I think you need not file any new 485 based on the approval of I-130. Once the I-130 is approved, you need to notify the USCIS (where your 485 is pending) that your new I-130 will be the underlying approved immigration petition for the pending 485. Perhaps, some lawyers may answer for the exact procedure to do that.

I don't intend to get a second H-1.. The second job that I want to do is just 3-5hrs a week and dont want any sponsorship for it.
Even if you work 1 hour a week, you need an H1 to be able to put on payroll at the other company. Otherwise, it constitutes illegal employment.
