Hi,
I am working for "Company A" on L1B from Nov 2006. In 2008 April "Company B" filed H1B and it got approved and received approval letter with I-94 effective from Oct 1st 2008.
After getting H1B I did not move to Company B and continued work with "Company A" on L1B Visa. To void the I-94 received with my H1B Approval I traveled my Home country on Sep 28th 2008 and returned to US on Oct 6th 2008 on L1B visa and continuing my Job with "Company A"
My H1B Employer (Company B) did not revoke my H1B since I have not started working for him.
Now Company B is going to renew my L1B visa for another 2 years.
If they renewed my L1B Visa, what will happen to my H1B?
In future if I want to switch to H1B, can i switch to H1B with my current H1B or do I need to file new H1B with fresh quota (Which opens in April)?
I am really tensed now and I am not understanding whether I should go for L1B extension or do I need to switch to H1B immediately to keep my H1B status alive? What I want to now is for some time i want to continue my job with Company A on L1B by going for L1B renewal and later once the recession is over I want to change my status to H1B? can I do this?
Please advice me what steps I should take to continue in USA?

Hi,
1)How long is the duration for University H1?Is it also 3+3 years like regular industry H1?
2)Can we do part time Phd on university H1 working with university?
3)Is there any extension after 6 yrs for university H1?
4)Can one apply for Greencard on this University H1?
5) If we have to change from University H1 to Industry H1,is that also through normal regular H1 cap lottery method of selection?
Thanks for your help!!

My understanding is that state in which you work you need to pay the taxes for that state. And I believe sometime in GC interview they ask for tax papers , during that time it should not create problems.

My I-485 is pending, was filed in July, 07. My PD is June, 04 (EB2 India). I-140 is approved. I have to leave the US for a year to work on an expat assignment beginning last week of December, 07. I have my EAD and AP. Also, I am on a valid H1-B until May, 2008 but will be applying for an extension until May, 2009.
Please let me know your thoughts if it would be ok for me to leave the US for a continuous period of one year while my I-485 is pending? I plan to renter the US on H-1B and not EAD/AP.
Also, does one need to be physically present in the US to renew EAD and AP? My EAD and AP will expire in September, 07 but will I be able to renew them when I am back in Jan,09?
For the period I am gone, do I need to pay any taxes on my foreign-earned income if I am going to a jurisdiction with which India has a favorable tax treaty? If my I-485 is pending but I am not working in the US, I do not need to pay taxes for the income earned abroad if I do not meet the "substantial prsence test" (183 days)?
Any thoughts will be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Anti trust lawsuits are brought about when it is found that a company or institution is using it's power of monopoly to bring in anti-competitive measures. In this case, which institution is using it's monopoly - the government?

All,
I am a little confused. I just got my H1B extension done recently and my attorney sent me a letter saying that if I go out of the country for stamping I need to make sure my Passport is valid beyond the H1B period.
My passport expires in May 2008 and my current H1 is valid till July 2010. Does anyone see any issues in going for stamping in India in July 2007 with my current passport and later on some time next year applying for a new Indian passport.
Appreciate your help
Your passport should be valid atleast 6 months from the date of stamping. So I think you should be okay. Also, its better to apply for a new passport 6 months before your old one expires. And once you get your new passport you'll have to carry both your new and the old ones as your old one will have the stamping till July 2010. Hope this helps!

I am also looking for attorneys in the DC metro area to help me with AC-21 questions/process. I was looking at the obvious choices Rajiv Khanna and Murthy - but if you have any other suggestions it would be helpful.

Hi,
There seems to be a lot of mixed information about F1-OPT and I-485.
My wife is on a F1 visa. She will be finishing school soon. She also has a pending I-485 linked to my application and an "approved" EAD.
Can she apply for OPT?
I will appreciate if someone can shed light on this.
Thanks.
She can apply , but most probably it will be denied. The I-765 form that will be used will have a question regarding previous employment authorizations applied for. She will have to mention about the EAD. Hence, USCIS will see the person has a pending I-485 and will deny the OPT. It is better not to apply.
The EAD that she has gives all the benefits of OPT. the only risk is she no longer has any backup F1 status if something happens to 485, but there is no way this can be averted.
Only thing you can do is when she works on EAD, ask that company to file H1 whenever possible, which anyway the company would have done if she worked on OPT. That way she will get backup H1 status

Thnx 4 the replies ppl!
Actually I had this guy�s work (http://www.madsberg.dk/) in the back of my head when I did the stamp. I like his work and think he is really talented. BTW he works with these guys (http://www.gulstue.dk/) if anyone should happen to be interested...
@Aioros: Thnx man. Glad it is of some value to you ;)
@K-man: If you look at the first of the above links you�ll why I chose the gradients - although I see now that there might be a liiiiittle too much red in the composition. Point taken though - thnx ;)
@Fasterthanlight: The font is not Times New Roman. It�s Charlemagne Std but I think I know where you are getting at - it looks pretty much too standard. Another point taken into consideration - thnx ;)

I would appreciate if someone could answer the following question. Before I ask my question, below is a brief background:
- H-1b Date Started: October 2005
- Current H-1b expiration: August 2010 (when I switched my last job in August 2007, they extended for 3 years)
- Date of filing labor: January 10, 2010
- Time outside US on H-1b: about 90 days.
My attorney at work said that I would still need approximately another two months (comfortably) of time outside of the US that they can recapture. This extension would take me into late January 2011, more than one year past the point of the PERM filing. They can, at that point, apply for a 'seventh year' H-1B extension based on my PERM process having been pending for more than one year.
Here is my question. Since I am currently in my fifth year of my h-1b, would it be possible now to apply for the sixth year of h-1b visa until October 2011 instead of looking at seventh year? I started my h-1b in October 2005. Therefore, I have until six years before my h-1b visa can expire, is that correct? If this is not correct, I would appreciate if anyone has any other suggestions to avoid travelling for 2 months out of US prior to July 2010.
Thank you.
