I believe this topic hasn't been discussed on IV. Looks like the proposed changes are going to make lives of Consulting company employees much harder. Thoughts from IV members?

Illegals are another story, and now we need to focus on the legals, as all efforts trying to bind legal and illegal together turned out to be failure completely.
While we can keep an eye on these articles - these are coming up to counter our efforts.
Lets keep the focus on.
I would only say - IV is for legal immigrants, for those who have maintained legal status and have played by the rules.

DUBLIN (Reuters) - Thousands of Irish citizens living unlawfully in the United States could be legalised in return for more work permits for U.S. citizens lured to Ireland by its thriving economy, an Irish minister said on Wednesday.
"There is clear evidence to support the establishment of some form of bilateral agreement between the U.S. and Irish governments," Labour Minister Tony Killeen said in a statement after he returned from a trip to New York.
Killeen said that, while 30,000 to 40,000 illegal Irish immigrants were living in the United States, two centuries of mass emigration to the United States from Ireland because of famine and unemployment was clearly now at an end.
Ireland's Trade and Employment Ministry said more than 4,300 Americans immigrated to Ireland in search of employment in 2005, compared with 1,700 Irish people moving to the United States, where more than 10 percent of the population claims Irish descent.
Killeen said a jobs fair in New York showed how appealing Ireland had become in the wake of the "Celtic Tiger" boom.
"The interest expressed by Americans to come and work in Ireland was so great that a queue more than two-and-a-half blocks long formed outside the exhibition venue," he said.
"In less than 15 years, Ireland has gone from being the sick man of Europe to one of the most dynamic economies in the developed world."
Killeen told Reuters in New York last week that Ireland would also try to lure Irish and U.S. citizens back to Ireland where the population is now back above 4 million, having slumped to a 120-year low of 2.8 million in the 1960s.

I was pleased to learn about this web site. Here's how DHS describes the TRIP program: The Department of Homeland Security�s Travel Redress Inquiry Program (DHS TRIP) is a single point of contact for individuals who have inquiries or seek resolution regarding difficulties they experienced during their travel screening at transportation hubs--like airports and train stations--or crossing U.S. borders, including: denied or delayed airline boarding denied or delayed entry into and exit from the U.S. at a port of entry or border checkpoint continuously referred to additional (secondary) screening Why DHS TRIP? DHS TRIP is a central gateway to address...

Folks,
This post is on behalf of my friend who is a student in UK and planning to apply for US Student (F1) visa. Here are some of the queries he has. I am sure some of you would be able to answer the questions below.
Question 15: Home Address (Should this be home address of India or should it be local address of UK where the prospective student is a temporary resident)
Question 16: Home Telephone Number : Similar to Question 15, what should be the answer for home telephone number and mobile number for a temporary resident (student) in UK when applying for US Visa?
Question 22: When do you intend to arrive in the US : They are asking for date/month/year.... Unless, my friend gets his visa - he might NOT know the date... Is it possible to enter only the month and year here?
Question 24: At what address will you stay in the US : My friend is going to be a student and unless and until he comes to US, will NOT know the answer for this - What have folks applying for student visa entered for this Question?
Question 25: Name and Telephone of Person in US who will be staying with : For prospective students, this would be a tough question to answer and I am sure most of the student visa applicants might have wondered what to enter here. What are some good answers here?

Hi,
I am in the following situation.
1. I am going to complete my 6yrs of stay ( L1 period + H1 period) in USA by Dec 2008 (after adding my vacation time in India).
2. I got H1 valid till June 2010 and got stamped on passport that valid till June 2010.
( USCIS approved H1 for me till 2010 eventhou I complete 6yrs by end of 2008)
3. My LC was electronically filed in September 2007 in EB2 category in Chicago DOL. Got Audit in October 2007 on Business Necessity ground and was replied within due date.
4. After several months of waiting (Audit response was accepted), it was denied on the following reason. "The internal job posting was not as per the DOL regulations".
5. My Lawyer said, the notice that was submitted was in the proper format-the exact format specified by the regulations that applied for reconsideration
He also mentioned that, he filed LC for other candidates with same job posting and got approval on their cases.
6. Now, Atlanta is processing all permanent Labors. As there is a huge back log at Atlanta processing center, My lawyer suggested to apply a new application rather waiting on this reply.
7. we need wait another 2 months ( for job ads and wait for response ) before even we can apply for new LC. even we apply some time in September 2008. I should get an approval immediately (as I am going to complete 6 yrs) otherwise I will be in trouble.
Given the scenario, what are my options as I am on time crunch.....?
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Wrong forum iuiukk..This forum is only for LEGAL employment based immigration issues. You will not find a single soul here in IV that will help you or give advice to you to do anything illegal. We are law abiding professionals and so you are looking for advice in the wrong forum.
I came to US on B2 10-year multiple visa, my I-94 is going to expire in a few weeks (first time extension approved ). My husband�s citizenship application has been pending for the past 10 months, it is in internal security check , so don't know how long it will take to clear.
What are the consequences if I over stay on my B1 visa for about 150 days, during which I apply for my I-130 and then go back to my home country and go for the consulor processing. Is this can be done? I got different opinions so confused. Would it impact my consular interview?
The hope is my husband�s citizenship would be approved before that and I might never have to leave the US.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I'm in H1B visa and my visa was valid until 26th October , 2012. Recently, I went Bangladesh and US embassy stamped visa until October 23, 2011.

Do I need to apply for H1B visa extension or I will go to Canada or Mexico to apply for new visa or if I go to Canada or Mexico and return back, they will issue me a new I-94 until Sep/Oct 2012. Any one please suggest what should I do?

There should not be any issue for applying with only 2 months left. If you wait to get the next approval notice and go for stamping closer to the starting date of your next year of H1b you could get stamp for the next period too.
If there is 2 months or above left on the current extension then they will not give a visa including the new approval period. They will give only for the 2 months. So perferably go closer to the begining of the next period along with the new aproval notice (if you want to travel freely for the next period too)

My attorney has submitted the documents for I140/485 concurrent filing. UPS has messed up and they lost my documents.It contains original documents for applying I140.
I am wondering if there is any chance that I can send photocopy of documents to USCIS explaining them the situation as I do not want to miss the chance of deadline Aug 17th. Could anyone please suggest me? Did anyone experience the same situation before.
Thanks.
I don't know the answer....but I suggest community to NOT to use UPS...since I also lost my documents couple of times (while sending to attorney). I stopped using it

1-on approval notice the petitioner name and the beneficiary name is the same don�t u guys thing the beneficiary name should be my wife name
2-DO all FTJ cases are processed through NVC. Or only some of them... because Islambad embassy accept cases from NVC only they told me that I-824 has to be approved and then UCIS will send your case to NVC and then case will be sent to islamabad but is this the same procedure for canada because I-824 approval notice says that they have notified tornto consulate that I am the permenant resident thats all. I 824 do not have even my wife name?? Can any body tell me clearly that does every body who files I-824 has to go through NVC or in case of Canada we can go to consulate and start the case?
3-If NVC is involved in my case then how long file will stay at NVC and how long the consulate in Toronto will take to complete the process.
I am totally confused a lot of lawyers do not even know that NVC is involved in FTJ cases. These lawyers still say that you can go too directly to start the case I know In Pakistan they accept the cases only through NVC. Even they don�t open case with approved I-824? What about in Canada? Do I have to wait to receive some documents from NVC or I can start the case directly in USA Consulate in Canada
Guys please help if you know the answer

Not a legal advise. My 2 cents.
I have never heard of employers pulling credit history to decide upon job offers. I have changed jobs when I had no credit history and when credit history was bad (in 500s) because of outstanding debt (no delinquency though), never had any issues.
Hi, I would like to change job but my credit history is so bad. credit score is in recovery stage. I was unable to pay credit card debt and worked with settlement company and settled all the cards..I paid every thing as of last month. But there were delequencies still appearing on my report..
I am working for a decent company, but i would like to change the job due to uncertainity and very less compensation..
It is very very urgent. Can some one suggest if there will be any issues that matters job switching. In general, will the companies pull credit reports and deny jobs based on credits...Will the credit history matters.. I did not had any foreclosures or bankruptsy.
Plz plz suggest..looking for a way around..
