Two University of Maryland management professors have studied the question and say no:The use of H-1B and other work visas to hire foreign information technology (IT) professionals in the United States has attracted significant controversy and policy debates. On one hand, hiring high-skill foreign IT professionals on work visas can be advantageous for U.S. firms and the overall economy. On the other hand, high-skill immigration can adversely impact the wages of foreign and American IT professionals. This study uses data on skills and compensation of more than 50,000 IT professionals in the United States over the period 2000�2005 to study...

The U.S. Department of State (DOS) reports that no later than April 30, 2010, all non-immigrant visa applicants worldwide will be required to use web-based form DS-160. The DS-160 form will combine the previous forms DS-156 and DS-157 and 158. Since not all U.S. Embassy’s and U.S. Consulates have implemented form DS-160, all consular posts that are not currently utilizing the DS-160 Web-based form will eventually be instructed to implement the DS-160 between March 1, and April 30, 2010. To review the list of the 24 consular posts currently using the new form DS-160, please visit

Thats not an issue looks like. When you go for FP, just ask them to see if your name is correct in the system with you A number. Thats more important thatn the spelling on notice.

I saw an update in my case status on July 10th.
It says, RFE received and case reprocessing started..what does this mean?
anybody else has seen this?
Did you get any RFE and responded back to USCIS?. Then your status will change like this.

Hi all,
I need some good advice and facts...
My friend's H1-B extension is approved but the stamping (Mumbai consulate) might get denied due to a previous (dismissed) charge for driving with suspended license.
What are the options after that? Can he re-apply for the visa stamping again using the same H1-B approval petition? Can we appeal the decision since it document clearly states that the fine was paid?
Please advise.

Posted Today at 10:14 PM by shreya
Hi,

As Economy is bad,my employer couldnot place me in a project.So my employer is asking to convert from H1 to H4(by applying i-539) and once i get project can move back from H4 to H1, which will not come under seperate Quota as my H1 is already approved once.
Can i know is this safe to move from H1 to H4 and then back from H4 to H1 once i get project.Will there be any issues in converting H4 to H1.What are the chances of getting H1 back.
Please advice.Any suggestions is really appreciated.

Since everything is current now, and happy as I am, it jumped quicker on me than i anticipated. I am in precarious position to apply I-485 right away or see it get retrogressed again.
My dilemma is that I am unmarried and want to get married to someone in India, but also take my time selecting my mate.
My question is if I apply for I-485 in july or august, how much time do I have to get married in India and still make my spouse eligible for green card with me.
Thanks

If you call USCIS 1800 number, and you ask the representative to raise a service request then they email the service center asking for details. Most of the time, personnel from service center will call back with the information that you have requested. If you learn there is a way you can email the service center, please post here.

Company A filed my I-140 and it got approved, however I have not been provided with copy of the approval notice. I don't have the receipt number either. In this case, is it possible to obtain the copy of I-140 thru FOIA (Freedom of Information Act)?
Thank you for the help.

In the form it asks the following questions:
Have you ever before applied for employment authorization from USCIS?
If yes, which USCIS office?
Date for application:
my question: I had applied to Vermont service center and later it was transferred to Texas Service center... So Should i put Vermont or Texas as the applied USCIS office?
Also, The date of application is that the day i signed the application? or the received date that i see on the approved EAD?
Thank You. input would be highly appreciated.

You do not need to open a new tread to ask this. There is a tread about AP trend
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=14005
Some lawyers receive the AP and sometimes the applicants. I do not know WHY?????

No. You can't port PD from spouse.
You can port your own PD, if you have another EB3 approved.
You can port the country of chargeability, if she was born in another (ROW) country.
My priority date is in 10/2006 under EB3. My wife just start her GC process under EB2. Can my wife port my PD date to her GC application?
Thanks!

Guys,
My company in-house lawyer says that i don't have to file for H1-b right now because I was approved for H1-b before. I only use 3 month of H1-b time and changed the status to F1. Now, the lawyer advise me that we should use all of my OPT time and file for COS for previous H1-B in June starting date of January 2009, when my OPT expires.
My question is
1) Do you think it is a good ideas or just apply April 1st 2008?
2) Does anybody else have/had a similar situation, do you guys mind sharing what you did?
I will really appreciate all you guys.
Kudos to all the experts...

In one of the threads Pappu suggested a very nice idea.
Everyone with difficult stories due to unfair immigration policies should make a youtube video and post a link here. Spoken stories will have much better effect.
Thank you. This is a good idea. Please lead this effort. You can detail this out, answer questions and help if someone wants to know how to make one.
Once we have lot of videos, they can be sent to media networks and reporters.
