Some additional information. My wife's first semester will be Fall semester as H4 and spring as F1. She will graduate by the end of spring- i.e. May 2009.
Well most of the time classes you need are not offered in the summers, also as a International student you can take summer semester off, you legally have that right. Now don't pick classes in the summers, move it to the fall semester. Also
I checked with my counselor, if you are left with only once class, you can take it in the fall, all you would need to is, contact your counselor and let him take care of the paper work. in that cases you don't need to take 3 classes to maintain your F1status.
Good Luck

For those worried about not being able to live in the UK, I say "Don't worry, you are not missing a great deal".
I have lived & worked in UK for a couple of years many years back. Like most of my acquaintances at that time I didn't (want to) live there long. Most of my friends left for US, I returned to India. And then to US.
Life is US has its problems, the immigration backlog is one of them. But it is really a walk in the park compared to that in Britain. UK is one of the most racist society I have ever seen. There is racism in all countries (even in India, we call it Casteism) but no where as overt as in UK. In UK, the work culture isn't all that great, life is boring and the weather sucks. No wonder a recent investigation by BBC reported that 7 out of 10 Britons now prefer to live outside UK mainly because it's high cost of living, lack of livable space and for little more sunshine. And that number is growing every year. In % terms, that's the highest number and in absolute terms it is the 3rd highest expat population of any country, only India & China ranks higher. Britons now prefer the sunny & more livable places such as Spain (culture), Australia (language) and Florida (proximity).
When I left UK, it was with relief. Now when I visit UK on work or enroute to other countries, I feel sorry for the folks back there. I would any day prefer living in India - if not in US - than living in UK.

With a one-year residency requirement in Georgia, with an H-1 visa, you should qualify for in-state tuition.
It worked in our case, but that was a couple of years ago.
In all the big ones like GA Tech, UGA and GSU, the admissions counsellors and the registrar's office are pretty clued into this issue.

I saw in some forums that the O�Net Code was revised down grading the Specific Vocational Preparation level of most IT jobs to greater than 2 years and up to and including 4 years.
In this way, I read that the key to apply under EB2 is only being �Research� : research into fundamental computer and information science.
Can I be a Software Engineer/Researcher?
Please advise, I am lost

Previously worked on H-1B visa for six years. Left US when visa expired.
Then worked in Canada for 6 years.
Currently on TN-1 Visa with 13 years of IT Program Management and IT Project Management, IT Governance and IT Audit experience.
Looking for a company willing and able to apply for Labor Certification in this short duration, so I can apply for I-140 and I-485 before August 17th.
Thank you for your information and advice.
Out of curiosity: How do you expect to get your LC through PERM approved before August 17th?
Thanks,

Hi,
I have lost one of the old H4 I797 originals of my spouse. What is the process for getting a duplicate of it. I saw somewhere that I824 needs to be applied. But not sure of below doubts.
1. Who should apply I824? employer or individuals ( in this case myself)?
2. If employer need to apply, should it be current employer?
3. how long does it generally take?
4. Is it ok if I dont know the approval number as I dont have a copy of the I797.
5. What other documents are required?
Please help
Thanks,
Vikram

Can any lawyer confirm this, please? Thanks so much!!!
It is unlikely that your husband will have a problem. As another poster said, he just needs to show that he is maintaining H-1B status. A very difficult CIS officer could take the view that he is not maintaining status if he is not being paid the prevailing wage. However, that is very unlikely. Underpaying an employee is an employer violation, not an employee violation.

Initially we applied for Labor in July 2001. Waited for 3.5 years to get approval. USCIS processed applications recieved in April 2001 for more than three years!! In January 2005 we finally got our Labor certification. In April 2005 we applied for I-140 and I-485 at the same time. I-140 was approved on July 2005. I-485 still pending due to the name check not complieted for primary applicant.
The same question over and over again, for how long will we wait more?

AILA Leadership Has Just Posted the Following:
Senator Sessions cannot leave his hands off of E-Verify. Now in "stealth" mode, Senator Sessions has slyly introduced an E-Verify amendment (SB 1371) during today's full Senate vote on the DHS appropriations bill.
The Sessions amendment calls for a permanent reauthorization of the Basic Pilot/E-Verify program, and mandates its use for all federal contractors and subcontractors - including the verification of all existing employees. This amounts to a massive expansion of a program that is still not ready for prime-time.
We must call our Senators and tell them to oppose this sneak attack by Senator Sessions for the following reasons:
It would impose exorbitant costs on businesses at a time when our economy is most vulnerable:
An economic analysis commissioned by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce
concluded that the net societal costs of the program would be $10 billion a year
� a cost that would be felt disproportionately by small businesses. It would make Basic Pilot/E-Verify permanent without addressing its well documented database inaccuracies:
A 2007 independent evaluation of the program commissioned by DHS found that
the Basic Pilot/E-Verify database �is still not sufficiently up to date� to meet
the requirements for �accurate verification.�
SSA has estimated that if Basic Pilot/E-Verify were to become mandatory and
the databases were not improved, SSA database errors alone could result in 3.6
million workers a year being misidentified as not authorized for employment.
This would result in 6 out of every 100 workers having to visit an SSA office to
correct their records or lose their job.
It would force workers and businesses to pay a high price for Basic Pilot/E-Verify's inaccuracies:
Queries submitted to Basic Pilot/E-Verify by Intel Corporation in 2008 resulted
in nearly 13 percent of all workers being initially flagged as unauthorized for
employment. All of these workers were cleared by Basic Pilot/E-Verify as
work-authorized, but only after �significant investment of time and money�
and �lost productivity.�We urge all AILA members to call their Congressman today and oppose the Sessions amendment (SB 1371). Don't let Senator Session's stealth tactics create a nationwide crisis for employers!

AILA Leadership Has Just Posted the Following:
The Board of Alien Labor Certification Appeals (BALCA) recently upheld the final determination (http://www.aila.org/content/default.aspx?docid=30320) of a Certifying Officer (CO) denying labor certification (LC) for an alien worker for the position of Electrical Helper.
The employer filed a LC (http://www.mvplawgroup.com/greencards.php?action=laborcert) on behalf of an alien worker and in November of 2007, the CO denied the application because he was unable to verify the Employer as a bona fide business entity. The Employer requested reconsideration by submitting its 2006 Federal Corporate Tax Return, its Business Certificate Registration and two utility bills. The Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN) provided on the 2006 Tax Return only matched the first two digits of the FEIN previously provided on Form ETA 9089. Furthermore, the utility bills and the tax return provided a different address from that on the Business Certificate Registration. Thereafter, the CO issued a letter denying reconsideration because the FEIN on the corporate tax return did not match the FEIN on ETA Form 9089. The CO then forwarded the case to BALCA. The Employer filed a letter stating that its company had two addresses, one for its motor shop and the other for its main office, the CO did not file an appellate brief with the Board.
Upon BALCA review, it was determined that the requirement in ETA Form 9089 requiring submission of a FEIN was fully supported by the regulations and by policy of using the FEIN as a means of verifying whether an employer is a bona fide business entity. An employer MUST possess a valid FEIN when applying for labor certification pursuant to PERM (http://www.mvplawgroup.com/greencards.php?action=permprocess) regulation 20 C.F.R. � 656.3. In the present case, there was a discrepancy in the FEIN provided in ETA Form 9089 and in the 2006 tax return; however, the Employer failed to explain the discrepancy.
Accordingly, since the discrepancy in the FEINS was not clarified, the Board affirmed the CO�s denial of certification.

Hi
I have an urgent query. Please help.
I was laid off from my company AA during last week of March-2010. I have not yet singed the lay off letter. And I was rehired by the same AA company on second week of May. I have valid I 94 for next 2 years. But my visa got expired. I was out of payroll for a month. I dont have last 2 payslips.
I have joined the new client through the AA company few days before. My AA compay is asking me to go my Home country and get my Visa stamped and come back. Is there a way that I can continue the employment here without travalling to my Home country at this point ? Are any other better solutions / ways.
Immediate response highly appreciated.
thanks

Your existing PERM is ok as long the acquiring company (successor in interest) keeps you in the same job (almost same job) with similar duties in the same location ( I am not sure exactly on location though it would make sense)
Even though I didnt have a PERM case go through this scenario. I had an old style case through BEC that went through company acquisitions.
Your attorney will have to file amendments and other supporting documents (like ability of new company to pay etc etc)

sorry to hear about your job loss. AP are supposed to be used during emergencies and it seems you are only planning for a week visit, seems perfect for AP use.
I have used AP many times, never had any problem, most recent visit being in Jan 2009.
H1B is having lot of problems in getting stamped and at POE, but I haven't heard anything like that for AP travelers. Just remember that if I485 is denied for whatever reason, AP also gets invalidated(Meaning out-of-country AP holders won't be able to return!!!!).
I would say go ahead travel on AP. How long can one put life on hold for GC. Its ridiculous.
File AC21 at the soonest to avoid getting denial.
Also check this thread for 'AOS pending and AP while out of country'. http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?p=330716#post330716 (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?p=330716)
