I got my receipt number for H1b application and its been more than a week but i still cannot check my status online on USCIS website.
It says case is not found ,even tried calling customer service .
Does it take time to get uploaded online ?
Did anyone else face this problem
I am not getting any information from my employer.
Is there any other way we can find out if USCIS accepted my application.
could some one please help me in this
Thanks

Hello everyone,
I have a question which I hope someone can help answer.I have applied in EB2 category and am from India.My PD is July 2005. I have used AC21 recently and changed my employer(i.e I am no longer with my sponsoring employer) I have not notified USCIS of the same.
I plan to travel to India during September 2008 and use AP to reenter back into the US. Can someone help answer the below doubts.
1) Since at the port of entry the Immigration Officer will ask whether I am still with the same employer or not- I will have to say I have moved to another company- What happens then?
2)Does using the AP and subsequent answer of "Yes- I have changed my company" trigger a RFE during the GC allocation process since now I have to prove to USCIS that my job is "same or similar" and my pay is >= the pay mentioned in my LC.
3) Has anyone successfully used AP after using AC21 and not had an RFE issued during GC allotment?
Thanks in advance

HI
I filed this week my N400 based on a 5 years rule;
I am a freelance book writer and a web market engeneer;
In 2005 I was let go from my job; I filed for unemployment and I traveld to Asia working part time as writer and looking for a new job and find new places to write about in my book;
the trip lasted 5 months,
I attached my taxes for the last 5 years to the application:
will CIS look at the taxes for 2005 and look at the unemployment benefits together with my international travel?
AM I in trouble when I show up for the interview? I am concerned
pls advice
thank you
I dont think international travel should be a problem as long as you have spent more than half of your last 5 years in the US.
I have heard (IANAL - so please double check) Unemployment benefit is an insurance claim. Your employer (and indirectly you, in the form of foregone salary) paid the premium for it while you were employed. It is technically not supposed to be a government dole. So technically, even that is not supposed to be a problem.
Why dont you spend a few hundred dollars to get a consultation with a good immigration attorney? The potential impact if something goes wrong is way too much for you to rely on questionable advice from strangers in an internet forum.

They expire after a certain amount of time. Just go take them as they want you to. You don't want anything to get delayed in the future just because you don't want to be bothered with them today.

Here's my situation in briefest form. I'm engaged to a woman in the Philippines. She worked as a domestic helper in Kuwait from about 2005 to 2007, a period of about 2.5 years total.
I understand that as we move forward on our K1 application (I'm an American just be clear) she'll be required to submit police reports for anyplace she has lived for more than 6 months. She doesn't have such an item from Kuwait, and it seems nearly impossible to obtain such a report. The websites all say that this document is only given to 'current residents'.
How can we obtain such document, and what if we can't? It seems unfathomable that the US Gov would request a possibly unobtainable document and then permanently deny our chance to live in the US together, if we are absolutely unable to obtain this document?
Does anyone have any advice, or can tell me what happens in a situation such as this?
Thanks for any help.

Know your rights. Don't get scared unnecessarily. You should seek legal advice if you are threatened in any way. If you have not done anything illegal yourself don't be afraid.

Hello Guys
I was told by the information officer that my application is under extended background check. Does anyone know what extended background check is?
Did anyone face the same situation? What are they even trying to do?

an local govenment gave me an offer but the salary is lower than prevailing wage around that area shown in the DOL. Would it be a big problem for H1b application next year? It is impossible to increase the salary because the working location is not rich in that area.
I heard that I can hire some survey company to get a lower salary survey for the specific location which can be used to apply H1b, is it correct? Thanks
Should I accept this offer? I have searched jobs for 6 months and only have this offer. Thanks for your suggestion.

Don't talk like a lousy school master. You really had not to write what you wrote.
Now coming to your question, I think many people are curious to know if ac21/rfe etc are any hold up & also if the approvals follow systematic movement pd/rd/nd OR it is all at the whim and fancy of IOs

Immigration Visa Attorney Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
No, not the Michael Jackson, This is It. This is it for FY 2009 H-1B season. USCIS states that as of December 15, approximately 64,200 cases have been filed. That leaves about 800 slots left for H-1B applicants and perhaps several hundred on top of that since USCIS will need to account for potential denials or revocations of previously filed H-1B applications.
Back on April 1, 2009, a lot of speculation was made about how fast or slowly the H-1B quota would fill. Predictions from one day to 6 months were made. But it looks a lot clearer now... by Christmas or maybe, by the New Year. There really is no way to tell. Practitioners who focus on H-1B work like me, know that odds look dim for someone seeking a new H-1B and who hasn't started the process yet. Issues of delayed LCAs (labor condition applications) and employer FEIN (federal employer ID numbers) are wreaking havoc on how quickly anyone can prepare a new application to get in on this year's quota.
If you have not been able to file an H-1B yet. Call us about planning your case for April 1, 2010. It's never too early, but it can be too late. ---ecf

check with your attroney, in general you can do concurrent I-485 filing along with I-140 (or) if your I-140 pending you can still apply for I-485 with I-140 filing. But I never did this, so check with your attroney now and do it. good luck

Hi there,
I changed my address using the online facility provided by USCIS by filling out the AR-11 form. I got the confirmation for that. After that when I started to change for pending petitions (I-485), lost my internet connection. I could not go back to that part again.
I checked all the FAQ's etc but could not find a link that would explain how to change only the pending petitions, since AR-11 was already changed.
Please let me know if anybody was in the similar situation.
Thank you!!!
