Dude,
This had been discussed may be thousands of time and discussion never ends. Do you really need to open a thread for this.
If it has been discussed many times then I regret to see we haven't achieved much out of this. But I believe persistence is the key to be successful in any cause.

Hi Guys -
I have a question about EAD and related to it is a question of re entry in US.
I am currently on h1b visa and have approved I 140 and was able to file for I-485 application alongwith EAD in July 07 fiasco. I got my EAD in Aug 2007 but never used it. I did not apply for AP.
Currently I am working as a consultant for (say) Co. ABC but my h1b holder is a desi consulting firm (say) Co. XYZ.
Now Co. ABC wants to hire me on EAD and I also want to take up this position. My current h1b expires in SEP 08 and my contract with Co. ABC expires May 2nd 2008.
If I take up a FT job with Co. ABC on May3rd and then go to Canada on May 15th for 10 days and then come back on May 25th and enter on h1b, what could be the impacts???
It is too late for me to apply and get the AP but I have to travel on May 15, at the same time I dont want to lose this position and want to take up the FT job.
Any suggestion on what could be my options to consider. I know that as soon as you use your EAD you lose h1b status but how does USCIS comes to know? How much time it takes for them to actually know that you have moved from h1b to EAD?
Gurus - please help me here...........

Some of the answers i know. I did a H1 transfer in 2004 and travelled to india.
I have to leave for India on Saturday for my wedding next weekend.
My possible scenarios :-
1, Case status online changes to Approved, I can travel to India before receiving the approval notice ?
Yes. Make arrangements for your company to send you these approval notice to India
2, Case status is still pending, they need more RFE. In that case, can I ask my new company to provide the RFE when I am in India ?
For h1 transfer i think yes. Alway your company responds. You need to just provide the info. confirm with others, i am not completely confident
3, Case status approved, I wait for a couple of days before I get my I-797 approval notice, that means I will have to change my travel plans. I really can't put it off, since I am traveling for my wedding next weekend.
You can travel and your company can send you the approval. I did it in 2004
Can someone advise ?
My travel to India is definitely happening, but can I go and get my visa renewed along with my wife, and come back ?
yes, but your visa has to be renewed on new approval. Old approval may not be valid. If you already have a valid visa you don't need a new visa. (This was what i was told that time. Things may have changed) Always better to get a new stamping
Thanks, and keep up all the good work.

All the metros are crowded in India. Bangalore & Pune have more IT opportunities and have good schools.
I second that. Pune has great education and not as crowded as Bangalore, but you can't go wrong with either place.

I believe there are very few left before April 1st 2004. EB2 I was stuck at April 1st 2004 for a long time and never moved from that date (excluding 2-3 times for a month or two when2006 people got approved). There will be lot of people from first half of 2004.
Yeah, before it went to Dec 1999, it was June 2004 i think and during the August 2006 current time lots of 2005s and 2006s got approved.
Since its till Jan 2005 this time i reckon its purely gonna be core 2004.

I have got Jury summons many times. I just told them I am not eligible. Please note that you need to respond to the summon in time otherwise the court might inititiate action against you. The notice I got listed a few possible reasons why you cannot perform jury duty and not being a citizen was one of them. I selected it and enclosed a copy of my passport to indicate that I am not a US citizen.

No. You will need new visa stamp.
I was told if you have valid stamping you do not need get new stamping even if you changed the employer. All you need is to give the new approval notice at the POE.
am I missing somthing here.

I have an NRE account and I get a 1099-INT every year from my bank for that account. It clearly states that the interest has been reported to the IRS and therefore must be shown on the 1040.
Interesting. I never received the 1099-INT. Will talk to my bank.

Does anyone know why NSC is slow in the I140 processing that TSC? My I140 date is October 25'06 and I think I would have to get that converted into Premimum Processing if I dont get approval in next 2 months. I aksed my attorney but she has no clue about the realistic processing times.
Good Luck to all.

I am not sure why it's so hard to understand what I want :)
1- My wife's h4 visa will expire after 4 years
2- I already have my h1b extension
3- What I am saying that if I don't get the stamp in time, I am planning to enter with AP
Given all the points above, and the fact that I'll be working on H1b status, would this void my wife's h4 visa?

um...but at the time my new employer offering me a position with an official offer letter, my current H1b status could be expired for over 3 to 4 months...(I am sure they want me to work for them since the partner there is my previous boss)
Shouldn't I take any action to protect my current H1b status???Like file a H1b transfer application which I know would definitely be rejected since I am unable to get a pay stub.
By the way, I didn't file I-140 or I-485 since my previous Labor Certificate is still in process for over 2 years (filed on July 2005)!!!Please consider these factors in my case~
Thank you guys~
Hello, guys, I really need your help~~
Is anybody here who could really analyse me situation???
Thank you so much~~

Issued in public interest
Ever since Department of State (DOS) has issued visa bulletins having significant progression of something, what is known as a priority date in certain categories, COLTS has made a comeback to the immigrant community.
For the uninitiated, COLTS stands for Compulsive Obsessive LUD Tracking Syndrome. Surprisingly, it is somehow associated with DOS's monthly visa bulletin and often lags the bulletin by 15-20days after the issuance of the same. It's highly contagious. The only antidote to COLTS known to the humankind is CPO, Welcome or other such emails from USCIS. It doesn't go into full remission until a physical GC is to the sufferer's hands. COLTS as a epidemic generally subsides when DOS severely retrogresses what is known as a priority date but raises its ugly head when the same progresses again.
The symptoms of COLTS is several. The sufferer is often seen logging to the USCIS.GOV site with increasing frequency and making status searches every few minutes. It raises the level of angst when the antidote (as explained earlier) is not received. Sometimes it proves to be a predecessor to other syndromes such as CUPOJMS (Calling USCIS by Prince Of Justice Method Syndrome) , OSRS (Opening Service Request Syndrome), TIAS (Taking Infopass Appointment Syndrome) and CYCS (Contact Your Congressman Syndrome). The good news is, the antidote can correct all these syndromes at once.
Immigrants from ROW (Rest Of World) seem to be immune from it. But immigrants from highly subscribed countries such as India and China have been found to be particularly susceptible.
The last time this epidemic was of such ghastly proportions was in 2008 and that time too, it was known to lag the DOS visa bulletin which had significantly progressed the priority dates. Since the connection between the bulletin and the syndrome has already been proved beyond doubt, it's very surprising that DOS has not learnt its lessons and instead of slowly progressing the dates which will desensitize the sufferers, it is still progressing or retrogressing the dates by months, sometime by years.
Your truly has the fast hand experience of suffering from the syndrome. Being abused and victimized by the visa system in early immigranthood, he developed the syndrome with the issuance of August 2010 visa bulletin. Only after the antidote arrived on August 3rd, did he made a sound recovery and was able to pen this.
The immigrant community is advised to keep it under check and wait till the antidote arrives from USCIS.

Replacement EAD means replacing lost EAD, and only 1-year EAD will be issued. Most people apply for EAD renewal, which is OK for 2-year EAD.
