Hi,
Anyone knows about filing for PERM on the 6th year of H1B? Will it still eligible for H1B extension?

That's a good sign for folks who wants to file green card next year and could not file this year becos of bad labor market
The most recent update from the USCIS is showing again a steady approval rate. The jump we saw in October was just due to a more current update of the approval, nit an increase in filing according to the USCIS. If this pace will continue we will see visas all through early 2010, but I may be wrong here...
Ao here is is the update from USCIS: As of November 6, 2009, approximately 54,700 H-1B (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) cap-subject petitions had been filed. USCIS has approved sufficient H1-B petitions for aliens with advanced degrees to meet the exemption of 20,000 from the fiscal year 2010 cap. Any H1-B petitions filed on behalf of an alien with an advanced degree will now count toward the general H1-B cap of 65,000. USCIS will continue to accept both cap-subject petitions and advanced degree petitions until a sufficient number of H-1B petitions have been received to reach the statutory limits, taking into account the fact that some of these petitions may be denied, revoked, or withdrawn.

I hope you have good lawyer on your case
We had a similar situation
My wifes app got separated from mine
since we had used a single check- my app was returned (the fees was double the amount!!!)
After a painful one and a half month my wifes application finally showed up- and got rejected (no fees) and we then refiled.
But the interesting thing was that during this 90 days period- my lawyer had someone at USCIS try to trace the missing application.
and he used to exchange emails with the supervisor's office on this
Is his PD current ?
If yes- then you should be fine.
If not- then it gets kinda tricky- though not too much
You have to prove that your app was lost and you are reconstructing the case
Keep in mind that that you will probably have to withdraw your app and refile with him
And that sooner or later- your husband's original app is going to show up
And at that time - you will have two active apps- but nothing that cant be sorted out...

I have the following status working with the original H1B employer who filed for my green card petition:
1) PD Jan, 2007, EB3-I
2) I-140 approved and pending AOS
3) 2 yrs. EAD available, expiring Sep. 2011
4) H1B will be expiring within 3 months (1 year left from 6 years limit)
My questions,
1) Can I use EAD instead of extending H1B? I want to stay with the same employer as a
full time employee.
2) If yes, is it required to inform INS? How and when?
3) In that case, how me, my son (middle school student, H4 & pending AOS) and wife's (EAD & pending AOS) stay in US will be justified with no valid I-94 (assuming I am not extending H1B anymore) ?
Answers to my above questions will be highly appreciated.:confused:
Answers:
1. Yes you can.
2. You do not need to inform INS as such; all you need to do (when you change from h1 to EAD) is to fill out new I-9 form with your employer. Ask your employer/HR dept and it is very easy form to fill out; that basically changes your job status from "H1 to EAD".
3. As long as their AOS is pending, they are all legal; I 94 does not matter. They are in authorized period of stay. Of course, their H4 status will be gone.
Only issue in doing this, is just in case, (by bad luck or something) if your 485 gets denied, then all three of you may not have anything to "fall back on". That is the one risk you take when you let your H1 go. Other than that, make sure everyone has AP (whenever they travel outside) and EAD (if they work/study) and you will be fine.
Good Luck.

With so many proposals and so many amendments to the so many proposals (:rolleyes: ), which one would actually (or at least help to) eliminate the current backlogs (i.e., make the priority date current)? :confused:
We should make sure that any bill that potentially becomes a law will resolve the current retrogression issue (instead of making it worse).
So before we decide the bill to support, can anyone tell which bill will eliminate retrogression? Maybe we can categorize all the bills into the following types:
1. Will definitely eliminate retrogression if the bill becomes law
2. May eliminate retrogression or may make it worse if the bill becomes law
3. Will definitely make retrogression worse if the bill becomes law
4. Will have no impact on retrogression if the bill becomes law
:D

I recently made the move to digital by purchasing a D70. I'm interested in purchasing the Nikon SC-29 cord for use with a SB-800 on a Stroboframe quick-flip frame. I like the idea of the added flexibility that the SC-29 gives over the SC-28 because of the additional autofocus lamp.
However, after I ordered the SC-29 from Etronics.com (who listed this product as being in stock), they contacted me a day later to say that it was actually out of stock. Furthermore, they said that Nikon had discontinued the product, and that though they tried, they were not able to obtain one of these cables through another channel.
Has anyone heard about Nikon canceling the SC-29? That doesn't make any sense to me. I've seen these for sale on e-bay, but that is through a Japanese reseller, and the shipping takes a couple of weeks (not to mention, it's not an authorized Nikon USA dealer).
Any other information or input about the SC-29?
Thanks so much!

According to KPBS, A bill to strengthen the U.S.-Mexico border could be a mixed blessing for San Diego. That's because paying for more for border security will require a hike in H1B visas.
The H-1B is a non-immigrant visa in the United States under the Immigration and Nationality Act, section 101(a)(15)(H). It allows U.S. employers to temporarily employ foreign workers in specialty occupations. If a foreign worker in H-1B status quits or is dismissed from the sponsoring employer, the worker can apply for a change of status to another non-immigrant status, find another employer (subject to application for adjustment of status and/or change of visa), or must leave the US.
The regulations define a �specialty occupation� as requiring theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge in a field of human endeavor including, but not limited to, architecture, engineering, mathematics, physical sciences, social sciences, biotechnology, medicine and health, education, law, accounting, business specialties, theology, and the arts, and requiring the attainment of a bachelor�s degree or its equivalent as a minimum (with the exception of fashion models, who must be "of distinguished merit and ability".) Likewise, the foreign worker must possess at least a bachelor�s degree or its equivalent and state licensure, if required to practice in that field.
Duane Roth, CEO of the biotech support group Connect, said that could make it more difficult for San Diego businesses to hire qualified workers. He said higher costs for H1B visas may also encourage more companies to outsource.
"A company may consider whether it's better to open a facility in a foreign country and hire the workers that are already there, versus the ability to bring some here to fill the opening jobs," said Roth.
He said the U.S. education system is not producing enough scientists and engineers to staff high-tech companies in San Diego.
I feel that another H1B fee hike will be a death blow to the possibility of retaining talented workers in the US and for small US companies to expand business.

It is illegal to overstay on a visitors visa, for that matter it is illegal to stay on any expired visa.
I don't think it is illegal to stay beyond your I-94 expiration date, if you already file for an extention or change of status.
Generally lawyers advise not to travel, when h1 or h4 application is pending. as your H-4 approval will come with another (new) I-94 attached to it.
So best thing check with your spouse's lawyer.
