Excerpt from form i485: Part 3. Processing information:
Please answer the following questions. (If your answer is "Yes" on any one of these questions, explain on a separate piece of paper and refer to "What Are the General Filing Instructions? Initial Evidence" to determine what documentation to include with your application. Answering "Yes" does not necessarily mean that you are not entitled to adjust status or register for permanent residence.)
Have you ever, in or outside the United States: knowingly committed any crime of moral turpitude or a drug-related offense for which you have not been arrested?
---------
It is NOT reason enough to deny the application - but like piyu7444 said, this will be another hurdle to cross. You need to submit initial evidence relating to this incident. Please consult an immigration attorney

I don't understand this, we are talking about these backlogs, which are effecting about 300K - 500K skilled immigrants, and we only have about 4000 members yet. We should take this as challenge and go on to drive to speak to people like us to increase the members strength, so we will have significant backing and Senate / House / President will pay attention to what we request.
Just a thought,
Please make sure you pass on information about IV to everyone you know. We can atleast grow 4 to 5 times if not more.

Media Drive - not even 9000 diggs from US!!??
There's a thread on media coverage which also states that we can get a lot of coverage amongst people via Digg.com.
What is digg and how it works- (wikipedia)
Readers can view all of the stories that have been submitted by fellow users in the "digg/News/Upcoming" section of the site. Once a story has received enough "diggs", it appears on Digg's front page. Should the story not receive enough diggs, or if enough users report a problem with the submission, the story will remain in the "digg all" area, where it may eventually be removed.
The highest rated digg in last 7 days (with 8632 hits / diggs) is that of a iphone. Our issue could not even beat the new iphone release. Immigrationvoice has about 14893 members, 7939 active members. If each member does a digg for himself and other one for spouse, we should have atleast 14000 digg to keep our write ups LIVE, in the minds of all the people visiting this page.

Yes it is legal as long as
- the student is in legal status (valid I94 and visa/petition).
- the student is not working/volunteering (peer discussion/helping other students may be ok) for that employer before work authorization.
I unable understand what you mean by "Is he allowed to sign any documents on behalf of the company during this training ?".
Can anyone please tell, can the employee be trained by the employee before activation of visa i.e. 1st of October. The employer is not paying employee any wages for his training. Can his training be legal ? Is he allowed to sign any documents on behalf of the company during this training ?

Hi
I am qualified in finance;started my career in finance & continued for 4 yrs. then switched over to SAP implementation ; for over 3 yrs now, i have been into SAP implementation projects. I have H1B approved for SAP work.
Now, can I take up a job with a different title - say, "Finance Analyst" or "Corporate Finance"? I have been talking to various clients in California that are interested in offering me finance positions.

Hello,
Last week i received RFE for my wife's father's name. The name on birth certificate is different from school leaving & other docs. I'm trying to get it corrected from Mumbai.
I beleive if i get a correct one matching with other docs, i should be ok.
Another issue, i have is i have rented an apartment under my name close to my work in the same state. All my docs have my home address, my question is will it affect my case if they find another address under my name?? I still have official address as my home everywhere...
Yes you need to make sure that all documents have consistency in names and dates. As far as your second question goes USCIS has space for just one address which should be your current address. So as long as you can prove that the address listed in CIS system is the most current address then you are fine. There is no law or no way to provide multiple address. Just make sure you can prove that address on file is your primary residence.

Hi
After waiting for a year for my FP notices and 4 SRs later I guess I took the infopass and went to the local office. The guy out there was quite nice and helpful and gave me the appointment for next day at the local ASC promptly.
Went to the local ASC and was was done in half hour. No issues.....it was a breeze...shd have done it sooner....
And here is the best part: My application had an LUD just 3 hours later.....

Company "A" had filed my H1B transfer after I accept their offer. I signed the offer letter
In offer letter no where it is mentioned that if I leave company , i have to pay H1B transfer expenses.
Also It is clearly written without any reason , time either way can terminate job. This is below from offer letter..
"I have read and accept this employment offer. I understand my services under this agreement will begin with the successful transfer of my H1B. I understand my employment is terminable at will, i.e., and either company or I may terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause."
Now , I have a better offer ,I am not joining that company .
They are asking me for H1B transfer expenses.
Company is asking "You signed and agreed to become an employee, however you never even started working here to begin an employee/employer relationship also you keep delying your joing time..It is clear that the delays were a stall tactic and completely dishonest, which any court will agree with."
If I am not paying it, they are going to take legal action ..
Please let me know your thought or any lawyer can help me in case company files legal action and what will be charges
Thanks a lot ..

According to a recent USCIS guidance an employer may not hire an H-1B worker prior to USCIS approving the H-1B petition unless the employee (i) is currently in H-1B status, or (ii) is the beneficiary of a timely filed H-1B (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) extension of status petition. If the employee is in another nonimmigrant status, such as F-1 (student) or L-1 (intracompany transfer), the employer must wait until USCIS approves the H-1B petition before hiring the foreign worker.
Under section 214(n) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, a worker who "was previously issued a visa or otherwise provided [H-1B] nonimmigrant status" is authorized to begin working upon the filing of an H-1B petition by his or her new employer. This provision is often referred to as H-1B portability. Congress passed the law to allow employers to hire H-1B workers without having to wait for the government to adjudicate the H-1B petitions (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html), a process that can often take several months.
The issue was raised to the USCIS Verification Division after employers received nonconfirmations from the E-Verify system when they hired H-1B workers under H-1B portability and the workers were not, at the time of hire, in H-1B status, or were not the beneficiaries of H-1B extension petitions. In the exchange, the USCIS Verification Division stated that the agency does not consider those employees to be work authorized. Please contact our office for further information.

applied June 27th( NSC ), still no FP..
Called them yesterday..the lady said that we need to wait for a 102 more days before they can consider this an issue :eek:
basically, there is no time period for FP , if we dont get EAD in the time frame then we call and ask. That's what the lady suggested.
we need to track if it happening to a lot of people.
