Hello - I have a unique situation. I'm currently in the US on H1B, and my fiance is in India working for a reputed software company. We are planning to get married by end of April.
I want her to come to US on a work visa (hopefully H1B). I got to know that to make the FY09 H1B cap, she has to apply for H1B on Apr 1 2008, and wait till Oct 1 to travel if her visa gets approved. But since we are getting married by end of April, I don't want her to stay in India till October while I'm here.
The other option I was thinking was to apply for her H1B on Apr 1, but still go ahead and apply for H4 in early May, so that she can travel on H4 in May. And once her H1 is approved, she would already be in the US and can start working from Oct 1. Is this possible? Will this plan create any problems for her H4 or H1 visa application?
If the above does not work, what are my other options? If I miss the Apr 1 2008 deadline, the next earliest she can apply for H1 is Apr 1 2009, and work from Oct 1 2009 - and I don't want to wait that long.
Another option is to get married before Apr, get her to US on H4 before Apr, and apply for change of status to H1 on Apr 2008. But the marriage plans for Apr is made and to push the dates back would not be easy.
Any help in this matter is appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Hello everyone,
Here's my situation. H-1B for self and H-4 for wife valid through Jan 2010. However our respective visas have expired in Dec 2006. So we'll need to get restamping next time we leave the country. We intend to travel to India this Summer from May through July. Ideally we would like to get the stamping done then during our stay in India. However there is a complication (isn't there ever) since my wife has an employer willing to sponsor her H-1B (starting in Oct 2008). I heard from the gurus here that this will be a COS from H-4 to H-1B and it is strongly recommended not to travel when a COS is pending. I think my options are as follows :
1. Get H-4 visa stamping in India in June while there. Assuming we do a premium processing for my wife's H-1B in April and travel to India after the decision is made (say by May), will there be any problems getting the H-4 visa stamping for my wife in India since we want to return in July before her H-1B starts in Oct?
2. The other option is to get a new H-4 stamping done before applying for the COS in April. This will be either done in Canada or Mexico I guess.
3. Another option is to straight away get the H-1b stamping for my wife in India instead of H-4 but that will cause her to wait in India through October which we would like to avoid.
Personally, we would like to do the first option, just get the H-4 restamping done in June and get back to US by July. But since she'll probably have an active H-1B starting in October, wondering if that will cause any issues when we go for the H-4 stamping.
Thanks!

Can someone tell me what is the alternate for providing birth Certificate I have one in Hindi.
You need to submit the translation for your Hindi birth certificate. There are plenty of translation services available, Trustfortecorp is one of them.

also, i am planning on driving (minivan) from florida. so would make sense if there are others coming from orlando region to join. i can pick up members from daytona beach area, jacksonville etc. if someone is coming from south florida, tampa area they can stop by at orlando and we can car pool from orlando. is there a local coordinator for florida ?

I assume you all checked ur GC wait time - which probably gave u like 10yrs or 18 years from today. Are you expecting vertical spillover to put you on fast track lane?? say getting a GC in 2010? 2011?? 2012???
vertical spillover will only help EB3's that are very close to Visa Bulletin dates.
There are app 200k people waiting, changing how they allocate leftovers is not going to help 200k hungry people. What we need is more food (more Visa's).
I am awe'd by the shortsightedness of the solution being discussed in this thread. Do you really think vertical spillover is going to help an EB3 > jan 2006???
when we are ready to spend "X" $ on getting a law change for "vertical" spillover, why not spend "x+y" $ and put same effort and get a permanent solution - "Visa recapture" ???
Moreover the latter is certainly going to get you a bigger participation from EB community. Visa recapture will benefit the entire EB group and future applicants too.
I strongly urge you folks to think about these.

Hi
yes, thats what my lawyer says as well ... under section 245 k which applies to employment based GC applications, we can file follow-to-join within 180 days. In the mean time h4 status gets nulled and we should not travel out of the country.
I believe that as soon as you file under section 245k, your spouse will be eligible for EAD, AP.
Also, I have heard that 245k is straightforward and will be granted quickly- meaning your spouse will be granted gc in a couple months.

There are lot of support and response for this thread and can Core IV team consider this to be included in their Phase 2 campaign?. It will be an added feature for our to be legal immigrant community. ^^ Bump^^
IMHO this would be great. i know i will be here supporting IV even after i get my GC. The truth of the matter is most users disappear as soon as they get their GC and stop supporting the greater cause (correct me if i'm wrong) of getting one's citizenship. I'm pretty sure we will probably see more users joining in to support this phase.
Then there are also the ones, that have the mindset that since getting the GC most of the weight is lifted off ones shoulders, and one can do pretty much (not all of course) anything that a citizen can. So the waiting for 5 years is not a burden to most. I'm not too sure if this is the case with everybody, but some that i know feel that way....

I met pappu for the first time at the reception registration, and someone had to point out to me that it was him heeeee. Honored to meet you!
pdakwala, you are the best, you were the one who called me and tried to get AA to waive the change fees for me, and I had really looked forward to meeting you. It is plainly evident that you guys really care about your members.
Paskal, I had seen your picture before, so I knew it was you. You made us walk all the way back to the starting point by which time all the cleanup was already done!
MACACA IS REALLY MY CHACHA NOW :) I couldn't stop shouting MACACA randomly. I think I even shouted PAPPU out of dhiren's car.
Aman, I couldn't believe how everyone was approaching him for all the pettiest of things (including myself) and he always obliged.
LogicLife is too proud.. he didn't take the rose I offered him during the rally. I don't want to have anything to do with him now!!

As of now we are gathering people in one place to estimate how many people are there.
There is a Poll on the first page of this thread which is a way for us to estimate the number of people who will support any action that we take to make our voice heard.
Please post this in your original message and if you could try to make it stand out (if you could).
I also posted comments on 20+ pending users @ (will continue the good deed). I posted the exact same message that you posted on user comments. I hope you don't mind

I talked with my lawyer yesterday, was informed that American immigration lawyers association (AILA) is filing for a class action lawsuit against DOL. There has been about 40% cases that are getting audited in Atlanta center. But after replying to queries, the center is not responding on a timely basis. There is light at the end of the tunnel.:)

The situation is the same. In my case and of course in most of others too, what he/she said is correct. Waiting for Eb3 to cross 2001 has become a difficult thing. If I started an EB2 app rather than hoping positively, I would have finished my wait for GC.
Ever since retrogression started the dates have not crossed 2001. 245i or not, the backlog is a fact. Sad part, when there is action items from IV, trying to talk to my state members, I have realized and been told that IV does not cater to EB3 anymore. It is disheartening how much ever I try to explain, occasional members look at IV threads like EB2-EB3 predictions and say there is no hope for EB3 and also IV has no answer to it.
I tried my part...too bad I was not able to participate in the IV advocacy day due to family emergency. anyway, let us hope IV's persistence yields us the results. My heart goes for a lot of EB3s who may automatically qualify for EB2 just due to their experience.
Best of luck to all.
