My spouse is out of country and she cannot comeback immediately since we are waiting for my H1 extension approval. Taking visa appointment days and airline availability in to consideration, she may not be able to make it back before end of july. I heard you can always add spouse later while 485 is still in progress. What are the implications if I go this path ?

Hi,
I'm in my 7th year of h-1b with approved I-140. planning India trip this summer and will have to go through painful h-1b stamping in Hyderabad.
I work full time for a big firm (10000 employees) and have masters in US.
Would be really helpful if you can share your h-1b stamping experience in recent months. Getting little paranoid reading about increase in 229g these days even after producing all docs.
Also is it fine to travel and get stamping when one is beyond 6 yrs of h-1b with GC underway.
Thanks!

U.S. Department of Labor (�DOL�) H-1B audits are just another unfortunate by-product of our uncertain economic times. Recent experience shows that DOL will not only request to see an employer�s H-1B �Public Access Files� relating to a specified period of time, but will also request other company records to determine whether an H-1B worker was paid the required wage (i.e, the higher of the applicable prevailing wage or the actual wage paid to similarly employed U.S. workers) at all relevant times. It is critical, therefore, that employers not only insure that their H-1B �Public Access Files� are in order, but...

Partisans Gone Wild (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/07/27/AR2007072701691.html) By Anne-Marie Slaughter (neverett@princeton.edu) Washington Post, July 29, 2007
Anne-Marie Slaughter is dean of Princeton's Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs.
A funny thing is happening in American politics: The fiercest battle is no longer between the left and the right but between partisanship and bipartisanship. The Bush administration, which has been notorious for playing to its hard-right base, has started reaching across the aisle, with its admirable immigration bill (even though it failed), with its new push for a diplomatic strategy toward North Korea and Iran, and above all with its choice of three seasoned moderates for important positions: Robert M. Gates as defense secretary, John D. Negroponte as deputy secretary of state and Robert B. Zoellick as World Bank president.
On the Democratic side, the opening last month of a new foreign policy think tank, the Center for a New American Security, struck a number of bipartisan notes. The Princeton Project on National Security, which I co-directed with fellow Princeton professor John Ikenberry, drew Republicans and Democrats together for more than 2 1/2 years to discuss new ideas, some of which have been endorsed by such presidential candidates as John McCain, a Republican, and John Edwards, a Democrat. Barack Obama is running on a return to a far more bipartisan approach to policy and a far less partisan approach to politics. (Full disclosure: I have contributed to Obama's and Hillary Rodham Clinton's campaigns.)
In short, some sanity may actually be returning to American politics. Perhaps the most interesting development is the belated realization by the Bush administration that its insistence on an ABC ("anything but Clinton") policy has proved deeply damaging.
But the predominant political reaction to this modest outbreak of common sense has been virulent opposition, from both right and left. The true believers in the Bush revolution are furious. John R. Bolton, the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, sounded the alarm in February with a broadside against the agreement that the State Department and its Asian negotiating partners had reached with North Korea, warning President Bush that it contradicted "fundamental premises" of his foreign policy. Next came yet another intra-administration battle over Iran policy, with David Wurmser, a top vice presidential aide, telling a conservative audience in May that Vice President Cheney believed that Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's strategy of at least talking with Iranian officials about Iraq was failing.
From the left, many progressives have responded to the foreign policy failures of the Bush administration by trying to purge their fellow liberals. Tufts professor Tony Smith published a blistering essay on Iraq in The Washington Post several months ago, attacking not neoconservative policymakers but liberal thinkers who had, he argued, become enablers for the neocons and thus were the real villains. More recently, the author Michael Lind wrote in the Nation that the "greatest threat to liberal internationalism comes not from without -- from neoconservatives, realists and isolationists who reject the liberal internationalist tradition as a whole -- but from within." He singled out Ikenberry, Ivo Daalder of the Brookings Institution, James Lindsay of the University of Texas at Austin and me. These "heretics," he said, "are as dangerous as the infidels." Heretics? Infidels? Sounds like the Spanish Inquisition.
In the blogosphere, pillorying Hillary Clinton is a full-time sport. Her slightest remark, such as a recent assertion that the country needs a female president because there is so much cleaning up to do, elicited this sort of wisdom: "Hillary isn't actually a woman, she's a cyborg, programmed by Bill, to be a ruthless political machine." Obama has come in for his share of abuse as well. His recent speech to Call to Renewal's Pentecost conference, in which he urged Democrats to recognize the role of faith in politics, earned him the following comment from the liberal blogger Atrios: "If . . . you think it's important to confirm and embrace the false idea that Democrats are hostile to religion in order to set yourself apart, then continue doing what you're doing." Left-liberal blog attacks on moderate liberals have reached the point where "mainstream media" bloggers such as Joe Klein at Time magazine are wading in to call for a truce, only to get lambasted themselves.
Students of American politics argue that partisan attacks have their own cycles. George W. Bush ran in 2000 on a platform of placing results over party. But after Sept. 11, 2001, the political advantages of take-no-prisoners, call-every-critic-a-traitor patriotism proved irresistible. And the political and media attack industry that has grown up as a result has too much at stake to give in to the calmer, blander beat of bipartisanship.
It's time, then, for a bipartisan backlash. Politicians who think we need bargaining to fix the crises we face should appear side by side with a friend from the other party -- the consistent policy of the admirably bipartisan co-chairmen of the 9/11 commission, Thomas H. Kean and Lee H. Hamilton. Candidates who accept that the winner of the 2008 election is going to need a lot of friends across the aisle -- not least to get out of Iraq -- should make a point of finding something to praise in the other party's platform. And as for the rest of us, the consumers of a steady diet of political vitriol, every time we read a partisan attack, we should shoot -- or at least spam -- the messenger.

Folks,
We received letter from USCIS NSC saying that our AP (incl. my spouse) were approved on 10/15/08. On 11/17/08 we received RFE on my spouse AP application for photos. My wife had already left for India (11/15/08) assuming that our AP was approved. Anyways.
My question - If NSC approves her AP application (again), which date will she have on her approved AP application (i.e will the date be still 10/15/08 OR after the RFE response for photos). Photos were received at the NSC on 11/26/08.
Is anyone in the same situation. Your input is much appreciated.
Thanks.

For the past few months, there have been no green cards available for persons in the employment-based third preference category (EB-3) and long backlogs in the EB-2 category for persons born in India and China. So, with few green cards to grant, why has the USCIS been scheduling interviews for persons in these categories? The short answer is that just because the USCIS cannot grant most EB-3 and EB-2 applicants green cards, the agency can take advantage of the lull in applications for adjustment of status to deny persons with pending applications. How can they do that? Easy! Let's say...

The Senate approved a stop-gap spending bill that will allow the Department of Homeland Security to operate until the end of October while House and Senate conferees try to work out a final version of the agency's spending bill. The measure now goes to President Obama who is expected to sign the bill. ANd none to soon since the agency's funding will run out tonight at midnight. The bill also extends four major immigration program - the Conrad 30 J-1 program for doctors, the religious workers program, E-Verify and the EB-5 investor visa. Why are the two houses of Congress...

Does anyone has any idea as to why I 140 cases are transferred to local offices. Do local offices have authority to decide on I 140 cases? How long would it take for the local office to send a decision on it? How do I ollow up with the case? Attorneys / gurus please help..

My 7th year H1-B renewal was mailed by my lawyer on March 30th to the Vermont Serice Center. They received it on March 31st. I know that there was a change in filing taking effect April 1st. What happened in my case is that the USCIS forwarded my files to the California Service Center without receipting it first. California reveiced my file on April 4th and now I find myself out of status. My lawyer tries to tell me that it was an USCIS mistake whereas a lawyers who I retained for a second opinion tells me it was the mistake of the first attorney. I did everything possible for the to reconsider their decision but I still would like to know who's to blame. If it was indeed the lawyera mistake I'm considering filing a complaint against him.

Hi,
I heard that if the filing of the 140 /labor /485 (any of them) have the filing date < 1 year at the end of the 6 year of h1b then I can not extend my H1B for the 7th year.
Questin: Is this correct?
Details:
Filled labor in june 2007.
Filled 140 /485 in aug 2007
6th year H1B completed in feb 2008.
Question: Am I eligible for the 7th year h1b extension?
If yes then for how many years of extenstion I get?
If not then please suggest what to do.
Note : I have not changed my employer since last 3 years.
Regards.
