Immigration Visa Attorney Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
It's H-1B season and the business immigration attorneys at Fong & Chun are busy once again fielding phone calls and inquiries regarding employment-based visas, including those of L-1 and new company visas. In the past few years, the USCIS and US Department of Labor have suspected newer and small companies of fraud, especially within the immigration system. New procedures and increased scrutiny (http://www.immigrationvisaattorneyblog.com/2009/04/h1b-quota-still-open.html) of employment-based cases have made H-1B petitions and H-1B visas especially more difficult to attain.
http://www.immigrationvisaattorneyblog.com/Handshake.pngToday's Wall Street Journal (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703712504576242973187563498.html) ran a story about the very disturbing trend revealed by the Securities and Exchange Commission that small private companies are merging with public shell (dormant) companies instead of going through more rigorous methods of becoming public, avoiding initial public offerings. SEC Commissioner, Luis Aguilar announced that since January 2007, 600 of such "backdoor registrations" occurred and most notably, more than 150 of these occurred in and around China.
It's no secret that the USCIS, as part of the US Department of Homeland Security (USDHS) is engaged in "national security, fraud detection and prevention." The DHS now has an unit attached to it which investigates corporations suspected of defrauding the government specifically through the H-1B program and other visa categories. This has made adjudications of all H-1B applications much more difficult and I believe we will see strict review of all H-1B and work related applications. ---ecf

You should only disclose class B misdemeanors and up. I would think that your citations are class C misdemeanors, which are same as traffic violations. I don't think you are required to disclose those, unless you got arrested, taken to court, etc. Just my opinion.

Hi Guys,
I was reading another thread and a question came to my mind..
I entered in US on AP and got the I-94 with the validity date as my AP date. Now my AP is going to expire and I am not going to travel anywhere any time this year. So just wondering what will happen when the I-94 is expired. Do I have to get it renewed from somewhere or just dun worry about it. or do I have to apply for a new AP.
Can anyone can shed some light on this situation?
If your AP expires, renew it. Dont worry about I-94

Hi,
I just became unemployed (today) but I obtained my GC through employment about 2 years ago. I have some questions:
I am planning to spend about a week or 2 in Canada, will that cause me any problems when I come back to the US? I will keep job hunting in Canada but for a job in the US as I intend to stay in the US.
Am I entitled to unemployment benefits since I have a GC?
Will my layoff create any problems for me when I want to become a citizen of the US in about 3 years?
Thank you so much.

Dallas-Fort Worth Immigration Lawyer Has Just Posted the Following:
The primary question among immigrants, immigrant advocates, and anyone else interested in immigration reform is whether the president and congress will attempt to address comprehensive immigration reform this year. As reported in the Dallas Morning News (http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/nation/stories/DN-immig_12nat.ART.State.Edition1.c062d6.html), President Obama says he is still committed to reform, Here are excerpts from the article:
President Barack Obama on Thursday assured frustrated supporters of a promised overhaul of U.S. immigration laws that he remains committed to fixing a system he says is broken.
What remains unclear is whether Congress will send him a bill this year.
Obama said he told the senators and the advocacy groups that "my commitment to comprehensive immigration reform is unwavering, and that I will continue to be their partner in this important effort."
The immigration issue is an important one for Obama, who has promised to work to solve problems. Hispanics voted heavily for Obama in the 2008 presidential election, making the difference in key states like Florida, and their votes will be critical in the November midterm elections. Latino voters who don't think progress is being made on the issue may not go to the polls.
After meeting for more than an hour with Obama, immigration advocates told reporters they want Schumer and Graham to at least release their blueprint before a planned March 21 demonstration at the Capitol, with a bill introduced in the Senate soon after.

You would require copy of the approval notice of 140 from the old company.
In the new company, you would need to file a new labor via PERM. Once it is approved, you would need to file a new 140 and use the copy of the old approved 140 to port your priority date.

Hi! I'm H1B holder and my company is willing to sponsor the green card. I'm coming from Eastern Europe (Moldova) and in US am working as software developer, I guess it's EB-3, right? I graduated in Romania Bachelor Degree in Mathematics & Computer Science (4 years) and Master Degree in Computer Science & Engineering (2 years). My work experience is more than 7 years. Please advice how to proceed to get this process done properly, legally and fast, reasonably possible and how much time it would probably take. Thanks in advance!
Try EB-3, the ride will be much more fun and exciting compared to EB-2. did you go to Universitatea din Bucuresti?

As per Spet 2009 visa bulletin, my PD will be current . I recently moved to LA due to Job change . If i do AC 21, do you think i will miss a oppurtunity of getting GC in spet since my PD is OCT 2004.
Please advise. Should i do AC21 now ? Or Should i do only on RFE?
Another question. I still have permanent address in chicago but moved to LA. Do i need to do AC11 form?

Can I file AC21 to change my employer to Company B and continue my I485 through to Company B?
You can invoke AC21 after 180 days, talk to your lawyer on how to inform USCIS.

Everybody please post the names of attorneys who are easy / not easy, safe / not safe to deal with. People can post the names of the attorneys and a brief description (without specifics) about the problems / happy endings, they encountered. This could become an excellent review post for immigration lawyers. we could also maybe put 3 or 4 criteria to score them from 1 to 4. for eg:-
availability to answer questions
timely filing
acurate filing (with all documents)
current with legal provisions and latest changes
overall easiness to work with
cost
etc etc
Experts pls join in to fix the scoring pattern. We need to know the crooks and the good samaritarians out there.
I already opened up a similar thread. Please close this thread to avoid the duplicity.

I said that as the LCA results will be out in 9 months or less according to the current scenario which gives me time for filing the I-140 before July 2011. Shouldn't I be having a 3 yr extension then? The Talent services Manager at my office said so..

You should get your EAD after FP
Not true... FP depends on your local office... If they are backlogged then your FP is delayed.. So if you are from BA/NY/NJ your FP will be delayed... As far as EAD is concerned you just have to wait... Its very unpredicatible... I got my EAD 1 month AFTER I got my gc! go figure!! My wife received hers last week.. BTW I am a early June filer
