I was on H-1 and got laid off on July 23. I filed for COS to H4 online on the same day and got the electronic receipt the same day. As I had filed I-539 after work hours, the receipt shows that USCIS received my application on July 26 instead of 23. I got the paper receipt in next 3 days. I hope this will not create any problems as my employer sent notification to USCIS on July 31 and I received my last paystub on July 31 though it was only till July 23. I have been working in US with good status for last 5 years.
Now I have some questions. Any help is greatly appreciated:
1) I recently got two Job offers from different consulting firms. When I told them that my H4 status is still pending, their attorneys told me conflicting things.
- One employer's attorney said that I have to wait till my H4 is approved and only then they could apply for my H1. At this time I have not status and they cannot file my H1.
- The other employer's attorney said that I could apply for H1 while my H4 is still pending by giving pending petition reference in the new H1 application. This will let USCIS adjudicate both the pending status together and there will be no problem for my H1.
Which one of them is correct ? What are the risks involved if I go with the advice of second attorney? Is there a possibility that filing H1 increases the chances the both my H4 and H1 applications are rejected and I could be OOS ?
2) Second question is that the second employer wants me to start immediately after I get H1 receipt. Am I eligible to work on a receipt with my situation or do I need to wait for the complete approval ? What if I get an RFE ? As this is a consulting firm, they have work order from end client for only 3 months and it will be renewed after every 3 months. Will this 3 month work order will create any problems ?
3) What is my current status ? Will the current time while H4 is pending will be counted against H1 or H4 ? As I have only a little over year left in my H1, it is important for me to know how much valid time I have left for H1. This processing time could go in months if I get an RFE.

For tax purposes you are resident of state where you reside. For best opinion you can check with the international students center at your school. It is not illegal to attend classes online if your school allows you the option. .
It is illegal to have all online classes on F1. On F1, you can take upto 3 credit online per semester, rest need to be in class.
If you are on H1/H4 etc., you can take all online class.

While out shooting today, I came across a pond with bullfrogs. I captured one sticking his head out of the water. I knew it was a wasted frame and never intended to use it for anything and probably should have deleted it. I shot the image with my 75-300 handheld at 300 mm, f/8, at 1/250 sec. Generally this is a combination that isn't worth the energy required to push the shutter button, particularly with a lens that is far from award-winning. For fun, I decided to see how well the image (original is RAW) would hold up with severe cropping. All PS processing done essentially the same. Frankly, I'm impressed with the results. To see the blood vessels in the frog's eye with that much of a crop is impressive. What do others think?

The other day had a friend at my place and I felt like throwing him out of my house. These guys are crying by their asses days and night. Believe me he is the guys whose wife drives him to work because his DL expired and PA DOT is not issuing him License because he has less than 1 year visa. But he was talking this government, that government..... I asked him to keep quiet and watch, if we are successful you'll get a free ride, if not then keep crying through your ass, you're doing it anyway!!!!

So let's have premium processing in all stages?
Wonderful, why not this suggestion:
Sell GCs for 30k each, or put up on auction.
30k is achievable goal for everyone if we save money for 6 years straight. Maybe live on bread and water or something but hey, after buying the GC, can get back to living normally!
I think the premium processing idea is just money milking strategies by the respective departments who process the different stages.

I was born in Bangladesh and during my childhood I moved to India. In all my documents like school leaving certificate and Indian passport, the birth place is mentioned as India. I do not have any birth certificate either from Bangladesh or India and my plan is to use affidavit and non-availability certificate in lieu of birth certificate issued from municipality or other authorized body. In my entire US visa processing documents and petitions like H1B, I-140 etc. my birth places is mentioned as India. Can I still claim Bangladesh as the chargeable country for the purpose of visa allocation during the I-485 stage? If I claim Bangladesh to be my country of birth, will this be viewed as if I have provided wrong information in my earlier petitions? What could be other consequences?

1. The title noted on the labor form was "Associate". On the job description letter, is it ok if the title is noted as "Financial Associate Analyst". Plus my labor was approved as IS Manager. Would the "financial" title cause a problem?
2. My lawyer put a very generic sentence as my job description. Does my job experience letter have to have the exact same generic sentence in it? and is it ok if the letter has more duties on it other than the one mentioned on the labor form (i did different stuff at that job, finance, IT, sales etc)
3. My lawyer put the required degree on the labor form as "Computer Science". However; I have a MIS degree. Is that going to be a problem when applying for i140?

My attorney has asked for the I-485 to be printed:
double sided with Flip to Top option.
Did anyone else do the same?
Quite a few lawyers request this.

Hi currently I am on H1B which is set to expire at end of November and will not be renewed. I have another position coming up but the visa application may not b e done till late December or January. I would need to transfer to H4 on my spouses status till then.
Can some one guide me in this process. What steps must be taken to transfer from H1B to H4? Is there any webpage which explains this step?
Is is better to file for H4 from USA itself or to go to India and do it?
Once I file for H4, does it have any impact on my filing for H1 from the new employer later in December or January?
Please assist me.
Thank you in advance.

In my experience, that level of qualification might cut it for a community college (that gives associate degrees) or adjunct positions (very low paid temporary positions) in 4 year colleges, but won't for a full time tenure track position (requires Ph.D.). Business schools might have some flexibility in hiring if the person has a very strong business background (e.g., CEO of some company).
Anyway, most academic positions are advertised in academickeys.com and the Chronicle of Higher Education. Around bay area, other than Stanford and Berkeley, you have SJSU.

I have recently renewed my passport in Washington, DC. As I stay far away from DC, I get it renewed by post. It took exactly 40 working days to get the new passport. I remember, you have to select a date while filing the application form. So, dont wait... apply asap.
Hi all, My passport is going to expire next month (November 28th). I can drive easily upto DC consulate .. wanted to know if there is anything specific I need to do. The website (Embassy of India - Washington DC (official website) United States of America - Application for a New Passport or Reissue of Passport (10) years (http://www.indianembassy.org/index.php?option=com_content&id=167)) does not mention anything about "walk in to consulate" information.
Specifically,
1. Do I need to call and book appointment ? If yes, is there a minimum waiting time to get an appointment, like how many days before ...
2. Will I get the renewed passport the same day ?
Any other points/instructions that you think are important please let me know.
Thanks in advance for your help. :)

I understand that you can draw circles, lines etc with the Graphics class but can you draw straight onto a panel with the stylus? As in I drag the stylus across the panel and a line appears?
