Could you please pm us the IP address of your machine. It will help us to diagnose the problem and/or let you know the reason. Its possible that your work environment is using NATing. So all machines from within that network will propagate the same external IP address. If you could send us your IP address at work, we will be able to diagnose the problem.
Thanks for your patience.
Hi,
I have sent my IP address via PM both to Administrator2 and Administrator3 but no change yet.
Also can someone grant me access to the Donor forum? I have been a VERY long standing IV member and have contributed several times over the life of IV.
Thanks.

U.S. Department of Labor has implemented a new integrated online system � known as the iCert Portal � through which employers can submit applications for permanent labor certification, labor condition applications (LCAs) and other applications for immigration-related DOL programs. In addition, the agency will introduce new editions of Form ETA-9089, the PERM labor certification application, and have already introduced Form ETA-9035, the labor condition application. iCert has already replaced the method of LCA filing for H-1B. The new iCert system begins to accept LCAs as of July 1, 2009. Employer and attorneys as the case may be, can still use the old LCA account but cannot submit new LCA. New LCA has to be filed from iCert.
Following are the new changes which has taken place:
- The new LCA requires writing the SOC (ONET/OES) code and the occupation title for the job.
- The new LCA has a section for basis for the visa classification supported by the application. There are the following categories:
a. New employment;
b. Continuation of previously approved employment without change with the same employer;
c. Change in previously approved employment;
d. New concurrent employment;
e. Change of employer;
f. Amended petition.
- One has to indicate the total number of H-1B/H-1B1 (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) non-immigrant workers.
- The new LCA also requires, in the employer information section, to indicate the Trade name/doing business as (DBA), if applicable, the old LCA does not have this requirement.
- In the new LCA, one is required to write NAICS code.
- There is a new section in the new LCA - Employer point of contact information, which requires to indicate the following: full contact�s name; contact�s job; contact�s address; contact�s telephone number; contact�s e-mail address.

Hi,
I looked at the list of civil surgeons that approved by USCIS. I called some of them and everyone told me differently in pricing. The basic I693 test would cost around $$220, and if i need vaccines, It would be an addition cost. Like some said the MMR vaccine would cost $120, the other said $50
Lot of them said the cost for chicken pox vaccins is around $120 ( I dont have insurance). My parent is not really sure if I ever have chicken pox or not so incase I need one, DO you know where to get those shots cheaper? Thank you for your time!

Perfectly fine. I did the same and no issues. Also for W-2, Tax returns, PP submit photo copies.
Hello All,
For the Visitors Visa(for parents), can a photocopy of Pay-check's be sufficient. Since the last few pay-rolls, my employer is giving everybody a photocopy of the Pay-check from Pay-chex Inc.To reduce costs of printing and mailing the Pay-checks, My employer is asking Pay-chex Inc to email the Bi-weekly pay-rolls of everybody.
Wondering if the US Embassy in India would create an issue by not bringing the original Pay-stubs.
Thanks!!

Unfortunately, looks like it does not matter what visa is being sought. My wife applied for H4 with PhD in Pharmaceutics.

Even though your end client is not the direct client for your employer, they might have used the laguage in the non-compete which reflects the scenario. So check your non-compete document.
May be the final verdict is in favour, you need to take so much of pain in the whole processes. If you prepare for these upfront you can go a head and fight. I had seen couple of instances in the NY, with my friends, where non-compete became VOID.

I have a valid AP approved on Oct 13, 2007. The H1B visa stamped on my passport expired in Mar 2007. I have a valid one year H1B approval till Mar 2008. I do not have the original I797 approval notice but have a scanned copy of it. Now if I have to travel out of country in July and enter back on AP will there be any trouble at the POE with not having the original approval notice of last H1B.
Any inputs will be appreciated. Thanks
I came back from India last week, JFK was the Port of entry. All i showed them was the AP and my passport, they did not even ask for any other details. Infact all your details will be in their system which they will verify inside.
I would not worry about it, but do carry your 485 filing reciept (i was never asked for one).
Good Luck

I wonder if there are any provisions in there that can indirectly help our backlogs as well? Text of bill: http://www.aila.org/content/default.aspx?docid=22907
This has passed House and I was reading in Oh's site that President will sign it soon. Is it possible to throw in some indirect 485 backlog reduction provisions in there?
Oh's report:
07/17/2007: Passport Processing Meltdown to Receive Some Help from Retired Diplomats
Currently, the department is receiving more than 1 million passport applications a month and holds a backlog of about 500,000 that have been pending more than 10 weeks, instead of the usual six to eight The Senate passed S. 966 bill late last month to allow State to rehire retired Foreign Service employees to staff overwhelmed passport processing centers across the country. Retirees now have little incentive to return because current law cuts their salaries by the amount of their pensions. The House yesterday agreed to the Senate bill and passed it yesterday which is likely to grant the State Department the flexibility to rehire retired and fully trained passport processors on a temporary basis to help existing processors manage the increased demand. The President is likely to sign the quickly. Read on (http://www.govexec.com/story_page.cfm?articleid=37485&dcn=todaysnews) (http://www.govexec.com/story_page.cfm?articleid=37485&dcn=todaysnews).
Probably I am jumping the gun here but if I am not, hope this post won't hurt IV's agenda.

Hello, I am on H1B with an employer with dates from sep 2005 to sep 2008. I am amending my petition (with a new lca) as well as extending it for the same company. The amendment date will be from April 1st.
Now my question is shd my extension (with amendment) be from April 2008 to April 2011 or can it be for the remainder of 6 years that is April 2011 to Sep 2011. Please let me know. Thanks

The fingerprinting is generally scheduled to give enough time to the personnel at the center to do their job comfortably and not have a large waiting line. From my experience I found that the scheduling is loose and so the folks at the centers can accomodate an extra person very easily. Also these are contractors who get paid by the number of cases so they are okay with doing a fingerprinting if you turn up on an unscheduled day.
The best bet is to turn up on a weekday. I did this for both myself and my wife as we were headed to India the day our fingerprinting was scheduled. There was no one in line and the whole process took at most 10 minutes.
Hope this helps

You must have I94 showing H1B classification and validity dates to change status to H1. You can travel and re-enter with a H1 visa stamp and obtain h1 status. Please check with the company attorney,

its good to use your OPT card as long as its vaild and then move to H1, there is no time frame for stamping, its always good to go to your home country and then get it stamped,but once you start working on H1(your payrolls starts on H1) then your H1 clock starts

1. Question regarding my I-94 form...
I have one which I got when entered US, 4 yrs back which is expired and after that I got new ones with each H1B application extension.
Should I send all of them or just the latest one? or the one i got while entering (Expired one)
2. Is it possible to travel on old AP While applying for EAD and AP renewal?
Thanks,

Not a lawyer- but my guess is that the date of validity on your H1b (First H1) is the day you can start counting your 6 years. This is regardless of when you started working for your employer.
Example: Employer sponsored H1 for Mr.X on April 2nd 2005. H1 approved with validiity starting 1st oct 2005. Mr. X flew to the USA in december 2005. Started working 15th jan 2006. The 6 years are counted from 1st Oct 05.
Now one can recapture all the months that the employee was on vacation. But I am not sure if this is still an option.
The six year count starts from the day you entered the US first. If you take the above example, six year count starts from December 2005. Additionally, if there is gap from the time you entered and started working that period is considered out of status, that's all together different issue.
