Hello
We have a situation and need your advice on this:
We have approved I140 with company A. Company A merged with Company B, and created a new company. Our amendmant was filed for new company and is still pending. I have also a copy of my approved I140 with company A.
My I485 has passed the 180 days.and I have my EAD, and AP, and done FP.
I have an offer from different company from the same industry sector where I have been working for past many years and same job profile.
I have the following questions:
1. Can I use AC21 portability and take up the new job?
2. Do I have to wait for the amendmant I140 approval?? Or can I change with the approved I140 of company A, and 180 days past after amendmant has been filed.
3. is it true that the employer doesnt have control over pending I140 after 180 days past for 485?
Please help with your information....It will help us decide.
Thanks

- H1B is good as long as employer-employee relationship is maintained, which in your case should be fine
- You may have issues with 140 approval (Just my opinion, I may be wrong)
- If you are considering H1 transfer, that may have issues as you may not have latest paycheck..

Hi Members,
I am pretty new to the forum. I thought you must be helpful answering my questions because attorneys in my company provided are not helpful.
My attorneys filed Labor with the missing job information like in the allien job experience section. i saw the the current job start date is wrong then the job 2 is put with the wrong dates. Job 3 is not there. I got a audit as ******** is my attorney as special audit. when I contacted they said its electronically filed then can't change. They will take care in later stage.Then THE LABOR IS CERTIFIED. Now I see nothing has been taken care. they are filing I-140.
Now my question is if i get RFE in I-140 in future and I send the experience letters obviously which will be different date( as labor is approved with aliens wrong info in experince).
PLEASE members let me know the complication.. am getting really worried..Let me know what to do.

In the last few weeks, as we worked to get our amendments in, USINPAC (http://www.usinpac.com/) has proved to be a tremendously important ally.
Read our joint press release (http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=blogcategory&id=15&Itemid=43).
We view their continued support as critical to our efforts once the Senate returns from recess.

Hello,
I spoke to my lawyer today and she made it very clear that it is ILLEGAL to file more than one I-485 for one applicant (from 2 diff companies). USCIS will immediately ask you to make a choice.
THought I should share this information

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced today that it will begin accepting H-1B petitions (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) subject to the fiscal year (FY) 2011 cap on April 1, 2010. Cases will be considered accepted on the date that USCIS takes possession of a properly filed petition with the correct fee; not the date that the petition is postmarked.
The fiscal year cap (numerical limitation on H-1B petitions (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html)) for FY 2011 is 65,000. Additionally, the first 20,000 H-1B petitions filed on behalf of individuals who have earned a U.S. master�s degree or higher are exempt from the H-1B cap.
USCIS will monitor the number of petitions received and will notify the public of the date on which USCIS received the necessary number of petitions to meet the H-1B cap. If needed, USCIS will randomly select the number of petitions required to reach the numerical limit from the petitions received on the final receipt date. USCIS will reject cap-subject petitions that are not selected, as well as those received after the final receipt date.
We recommend employers to hurry up and get all the necessary documents in order to meet the April 1, 2010 deadline.

Yes, you can use it for multiple entries (The I-512L should say "this is valid for multiple entries" or something to that effect). But, please be prepared to answer the questions (if any) on what is the necessity to travel on an AP 3 times within the year. If it is on business, that is perfectly within the stated rule. But, if it is vacation, you may be questioned (that is dependent on the individual officer).
http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-131instr.pdf
Please read the above instructions about how it has been mentioned that the AP be used sparingly and not in lieu of a visa.

It is a good opportunity for state chapters. Unfortunately not many state chapters are yet formed despite having 8000+ members. We have members from every state but only a handful state members are actively working. Unless we all ourselves take responsibility and actively organize and participate in state chapters it is tough to use the grassroots level strength of this organization. We have more than a thousand members coming everyday to this site and posting ideas, opinions and what IV should do and what IV should not do. We all can achieve everything easily if everyone actively makes their state chapters alive and participate. If you feel that there is nobody in your chapter, then take a lead role and organize it. If you find that few members have signed up, and nothing is happening, then PM all those that are signed up and start working on action items.
pls use this link to sign up and start taking active role in your state chapter today

Yes, the new quota starts on Monday. However, you still need a current priority date and all security clearnances before you are eligible for approval. (At least that's how it will work for the most part).
Who knows if they used all the 2007 numbers up. I suspect they will be very close to having done that given the number of applications they had.
Out of the entire year quota, they can allocate only 1/4 th of it in the first quater. This is why it is impossible for USCIS to allocate the yearly quota in one day. [Whether they have such a efficient system to do so is a different debate].
I wonder why they don't have such a distribution for H1B allotment though :D
Thanks

Probably you got to make you aware of science of immigration. Tell the authorities what they ask for (not what you want to tell). These days merger and aquisitions are commonplace and USCIS may be aware of these situations.
Hello all,
My company merged with another one last year just after my I-140 was approved. I'm preparing to file I-485 (doing it myself) and I'm wondering what kind of documents/letters do I need to submit to USCIS to proof that my job wasn't affect by the merger and I'm still working in the same position.
I'd really like to send all required information to USCIS so that I don't have to reply to RFEs later on.
Any examples of letters or list of supporting documents will be appreciated.
