No it is normal. I also got AP same day, mine was going to expire 28-Aug. Same validity - 20 -may.
But I dont care, because for me only expense is photographs and mail charges. I filed under new fee structure.

I thought I would post on how I resolved my expired I-94 issue today. Could be of help to someone.
I have an I797 and corresponding H1-B visa valid until March 31st 2011.
When I last came into the US on Dec 31st 2009, the immigration officer stamped the I-94 valid until date as March 30th 2010. Essentially giving me only three months of stay.
I did not notice the problem (coming in after a long flight and being jet lagged didn't help) until yesterday when my attorney was going through my documents for some other purpose. As of yesterday I had been out of status for over 3months.
We called the CBP office at Pittsburgh Airport (where i reside) and explained the situation to them. They asked my visa validity date and passport validity date on the phone. After which I was asked to go the the CBP office and get it corrected.
Today morning I headed over there and was met with the most friendly immigration officers I have ever met. Pittsburgh rocks in that. When he heard my case, he asked me if I had presented my latest I-797 to the officer at the time of stamping. When I replied yes, he said it did not make sense why the officer stamped the date he did. He asked to see my passport and I-797 and in 10 minutes told me he would be issuing me a new I-94 with the correct stamped date as March 31st 2011.
Afterwards he mentioned that it was expired and I was lucky because some other officer could have asked me to do a reinstatement (something that apparently costs a lot of money and a lot more trouble according to him)
In my case it was a genuine mistake on the immigration officer's part, since all my documents at the time of the samping indicated a later date. IMO that was the critical factor.
However, as he advised, please be extra sure before you step away from the counter at port of entry, that all your stamps are correct.
Good luck for anyone facing this problem, if you have the valid documents the officers are most probably going to correct the mistake and not give you a hard time about it.:)

Dude,
I don't have 15 mts time to search on forum. I had a question and I asked, Lasantha promptly answered. And you further wasted my time by writing your expert opinion and now I am wasting my time further replying to you. No hard feelings adios!

Hi,
Does anybody know as to how long it takes to receive the H1B receipt # when its being processed in premium processing?
Mine was premium processing. 15 days to receive receipt and another 15 days to receive approval.

A friend of mine has PhD in aeronautics from a top tier university here in US. He will be soon starting teaching in a university and planning to file his GC under EB-1.
Are there any risks in getting I-140 approved under EB-1? or just having a PhD does not automatically qualify anyone under EB-1 category.?
Since he is born in India so reluctant to file under EB-2 due to endless wait.
Depends on whether the role for which he is applying requires a PhD or not. Once again, consult a good lawyer.

Looks like it is mistake. Is it your second FP appt? It is possible that they already have FP with them and I 140 and I 485 both approved on the same date - within an hour difference.

Is it possible to extend H4 status after using EAD for a person whose I-485 pending in derivative status.
I read Cronin Memo reg. dual intent "Revision of March 14, 2000 Dual Intent Memorandum"
It seems to discuss reg. using AP to enter the country and maintaining H status.
Not sure if anyone here has done the extension of H4 after using EAD.
Cronin memo:
Cronin Memo (5-16-00) | Carl Shusterman (http://shusterman.com/h1blvisasmemoworkingadvanceparole.html)
Appreciate any comments reg. this,
There's no 100% clear law/rule on that situation and it's somewhat up to the consulate to decide. In theory, she should have no problem getting an H-4 visa at all. However, that's based on a USCIS position saying that your underlying H-1B work authorization remains valid, even after you travel using a Parole. You're correct, though, that there's always been a logical problem with that CIS position, since your status is technically Parolee. Since the consulates are run by the USDOS, they are allowed to take their own position on that problem, so there's always at least some risk of them causing problems with an H-4 visa application. so it is better to file an H1B amendment and go for H4 stamping.

If I live in Canada but commute daily to work in US (Windsor/Detroit) can I file I 485 in US instead of consular processing ?

I'm wondering if criminal charges that never lead to a conviction (3 charges in total) can cause a green card holder to get deported? Also, when a person applies to renew a green card after it expired will another FBI fingerprint check be done?
Thanks for the help.
was it no contest or did u plead guilty?

Hi,
My wife is currently on H1 (valid until Oct 2008). We just had a baby and I am thinking of transfering her to h4 (COS) for about 7-8 months. Once she feels comfortable she would like to start working again. In this case we would need h4 to h1b COS again.
Ques 1: Will h4-to-h1 transfer (while the h1 visa is still valid) be counted against a fresh quota or will this be just a COS application.
Ques 2: This is her first H1B which was valid for 3 years ( started in Oct 2005 - Oct 2008). Her company is about to file for renewal (for another 3 years - then her H1B maybe valid until Oct 2011). If she does COS to H4 now (June 2008) and if she plans to COS to H1 next year (Lets say March 2009), then will her new H1 application still be considered against the H1B cap ? The reason I ask is cos her H1B is currently valid until Oct 2008 and her company hasnt applied for renewal yet.
Ques 3: How much time does it takes to get the COS for h1-h4 and h4-h1 ?
Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks in advance...

That's great news - IV's efforts are paying off now. Not sure if they give two years for all EAD's applications (either renewal or new) that are currently pending. Now I wish my application will get a bit delayed in processing :)
Anyway its a good news that they are starting it from June end.
Well i missed the boat atleast for this yr..:(

Hello,
I (Indian citizen) am on H1B and wife is on H4 (Canadian citizen). If we plan to get some franchisee and invest money from our savings, will she be eligible for E2 visa and work as an owner?
Thank you!

As long as you are not working for your company, you are allowed to promote or finance a business venture. We have discussed this in another thread.
