You should be good as long as the existing Visa is valid when you reenter. Even though the existing Visa stamping is tied to your previous employer, You do NOT have to go for Stamping just because you changed the employer and got the new H1. The IO at Port Of Entry might ask about your current employer and you should mention your new Employer and show the new H1B approval at at that time.
I hope this helps. Good Luck & Welcome Back!!!
Thanks.

I have my H1B stamped visa from company A,and is valid till September 2010.I came to India in August 2009 and planning to come back to US in the next month.
Meanwhile i have filed for a H1B tranfer to company B in April'2010 and it was approved in last week.
My question is can i come back to US on my stamped visa from Company A.Is that still valid even after my transfer was approved to Company B ?.
Do i have any problems at port of entry to us ?.
Or do i need to go for H1B stamping for Company B.
please tell me what are my options.any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the input. Do you have any publications or IRS findings that you could direct me to that could be used to substantiate the argument that the benefit is non- taxable? I have not been able to find anything that says that the green card is non-taxable.

Hello All,
I have applied for my 485 in July 2007 and I have received receipt notice for 485 application as well. I also got the appointmnet for FP. I moved to a new location and address has chaged now. If I update my address in USCIS, What are the consequences?
I still have access to the mail in my old address as my friend lives there.
Please suggest.
Thanks!!
Changing of address seems to be a simple procedure, but it is very inconsistent and arduous.
Please follow this thread.

you are ok. You only needed to get married anytime before your I-485 is approved.
BTW that is a funny title for the thread "single and then married". Most of us are indeed single before we get married :)

- My friend has not been paid by his current employer. So no pay-stubs what so ever
That can be an issue in H1 transfer because he may be asked to prove that he has maintained valid status ( as there is no such things as bench on H1). This is a only a potential issue, not a showstopper as I know of transfers done without paystub.
- He had signed a contract for 2 years and some ridiculous amount of money towards damages in case he leaves
This is merely a threatening exercise by the employer to keep him from leaving. It does not have any legal bearings. I have done it myself in past.
What are his options now? What if the employer sends H1B cancellation before he gets to file a new petition through the new company? Can anyone please help?
The moment your H1 application is received by USCIS, you are safe. Even otherwise, USCIS generally takes a while to revoke the H1 after recieivng the application.
But if USCIS revokes H1 before the transfer request is recieved, then you are out of status and your new application will be denied.
But let me ask you one thing, if your friend is not being paid, why in this world he needs to even tell his employer about his plans to switch. Ask him to act smart.

Hi Sir,
I have a question regarding H1B transfer and should I go premium processing or not?
Here is my case:
I was laid of from Company A (not consulting) last week. I have all my past pay stubs. That was total shock to me and got me off-guard.. It took me few days to find a consulting company B which is willing to transfer my H1B.
As any big company, A is quite prompt in sending revoke letter so I would assume they would be already doing it by now. Company B will be sending transfer papers tomorrow(Friday) or Monday.
My question is should I go with Premium Processing or not? I just dont want to take any risk where USCIS denies my case. Is premium processing going to help me here or not.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards.
Dont you think the PP will give you much faster results, peace of mind and you don’t have to wait anxiously for months...

My passport is expiring in March. I live in NY metro . Does anyone knows the procedure to renew the passport while in the USA. Please share your experience.
You can go to this website and get all the needed info....
http://www.indiacgny.org/
Also, there were atleast 2 threads discussing PP renewals..You can do a search for those threads for renewal timelines...I think it takes them 2-3 weeks in NY Consulate to mail the new passport....You can go for tatkal service and get it issued the same day if you pay $90 extra....

The US Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) has issued new guidance (http://www.uscis.gov/files/nativedocuments/health_care_occupations_20may09.pdf)on the standards for adjudicating H-1B petitions filed on behalf of beneficiaries seeking employment in a health-care specialty occupation.
The memo suggests that adjudicators should first consult the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics� Occupational Outlook Handbook (OOH) to determine whether the position qualifies as a H-1B "specialty occupation" as defined in the Immigration and Nationality Act.
The memo addresses licensing requirements for health-care workers in detail, and the effect of having a license - or not having a license - on approval of a case. If the foreign national has the required license, the adjudicator should not "look beyond the license." If the foreign national has a restricted license (e.g., license approved except for mandatory supervised practice), and the petition is otherwise approvable, an adjudicator should approve the petition for one year, or the duration of the restricted license, whichever is longer.
If the employee does not have the license because s/he needs certain immigration documents before getting a license, CIS can approved the petition for one year. The memo says that "The approval of any such H-1B petition shall not constitute approval by USCIS for the alien beneficiary to engage in any activity requiring possession of such State or local license. It is merely a means to facilitate the state or local licensing authority�s issuance of such a license to the alien, provided all other requirements are satisfied."

That is may not correct. Stuart Anderson was never a lobbist. But he did play a key role in AC21 law. Back then Stuart was Legislative Director for Sen. Abraham (R-MI). Stuart worked with key staffers across the aisle to recapture and pass other favorable provisions in AC21. In that sense, Stuart always had a front row seat to witness things unfold in front of him. This is what makes his book so unique.
According to the website, Stuart is Adjunct Scholar at CATO institute and he is executive director of another policy institute called NFAP.

This plea is for people who are still undecided about the rally and have lot of friends in the same situation. If there is a group of friends in the same situation it only takes one brave soul to make a decision and every one will jump in. We all seen this in trivial matters like going for vacation, movies etc..
I see the problem is in taking the first step and others will jump right in immediately. So if your friends look up for you to make the decision, please be a leader and do it now. You will not only make a difference in their life and their life as well.
Can you take that elusive first step?????. People in and around DC area it's only a day trip. Atlanta/NC/SC folks, not too late. Please PM either me or ramus.
Very true...be the brave one, be the wise one, be the one to think of your future...be the one to take that step and be an example. Others will follow.

The 260k�
God knows or who knows why the fluke in the numbers and a lot hurt but not to forget certain services made the big bucks. On an average 65k/year non-Immigrant VISAS are issued by immigration services. The Dept. of State claims that 60k immigrant VISA numbers exhausted by June 29, 07. The total number of applicants in the rat race should sum up to at least 260k as on June07.
Numbers do the math...
The June07 bulletin priority dates for India trace back to EB3-June03 & EB2-April04. At the same time about combined ~65k*4(June03-June07) = 260k were looking forward to get ahead in the rat race. Assume that 70% of 260k i.e. 182k had approved labors/substitution labor. The 182k caused to exhaust the 60k available immigrant VISAS then still about 102k are left in the air as non-immigrant alien workers.
The suck-more theory�
Since, the bulletin was issued on June 13, 07 (13 = dooms day) ~102k rushed to local stores like Sears, Walgreen, CVS for 2�� * 2 �� passport size photographs. The non-immigrant alien workers spent around 182k* ~$60 = $10.9mil for 6 passport size photographs. This explains why Walgreen (WALG) which was trailing at $43.xx on NASDAQ in May07 shot up to $45 in June07 and suddenly tumbled down to $43.xx after the revised bulletin. Certified civil surgeons to perform medical examination pocketed medical history�s best earnings in a span of 2 weeks raking revenues of about 182k* ~$275 = ~$50mil. NASDAQ touched years best @2650 in June07. Immigration lawyers charge about $1500 for I140 petition. Market rates for immigrant 485 petition is about $1400 for principal applicant and extra $750 for each dependent. Assuming that the average spending of 182k(singles, married, 2/3dependent applicants) amounted to $2000 for I140 and $2000 for I485 this totals to about 182k*$4000 = guess what!! $728mil. This means that there should be tremendous sales of Bentleys, Porsches, Lexus, Audis, BMWs this year. Projected sales of luxury cars should touch around $500mil for luxury cars alone in Q3. Till the next Oct07 bulletin keep the retro-guess-on for numbers.
Thanks and good luck!!
