Just want to share the info that i got from my immigration firm news letter
Under Section 265 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), all non-U.S. citizens who change their residential address are required to notify the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) within 10 days of the change. This applies to all adults and children (of any age) who are non-U.S. citizens, including U.S. green card holders.
A person who fails to notify the USCIS of a change of address within 10 days of the change is guilty of a misdemeanor under Section 266 of the INA. The penalty for failing to notify the government of the new address within 10 days is a fine of up to $200.00 or possible imprisonment for a period not to exceed 30 days, or both. However, the government has not enforced this section of the law that rigorously to date, and many notify the USCIS of their change of address well after the 10 day reporting period without an issue, but this could change. Since we have seen an increase in USCIS enforcement activities with respect to H-1B employers and H-1B workers, and since many H-1B employers place H-1B employees at client locations around the country for short-term assignments, it is very important that H-1B employees notify the USCIS each time they move within the 10 day reporting period.
In order to report a change of address to the USCIS you may download, complete, and mail a Form AR-11 or Form AR-11SR (Special Registrants Only) to the USCIS, or you may report your change of address, electronically, by visiting the USCIS web site (www.uscis.gov), and following the procedures provided by the USCIS

Go to Airport for a defferred inspection. They will correct it. Many people here got it corrected. Don't waste time here for answer thomacha.........
Anybody who had an I94 issued only till the validity of the visa and not until the I-797? At the POE the guy simply wouldn't understand when I tried to explain to him that I have an extension (797) valid from 4/10 t0 4/11. He gave me an I94 only until 4/10. I read that people go for deffered inspection and get it corrected. Anybody who did that in a similar situation active in IV now? Any suggestions on how to proceed? do you go to the nearest international airport or an off-airport location?

If you have a receipt as proof that an extension application was filed on your behalf before expiration of your H1 then you have 240 days starting from the day your visa expires before you should get an extension. You will be out of status if your case is not resolved in the 240 days deadline. I cannot comment on the implications of missing out on a deadline for responding to the RFE.

Hi All,
Is there a fee for filing a renew advance parole document for a application based on a I-485 filed after July 2007.
I know that there is no fee for I-765 renewal, but , there is a conflict for I-131 based on the following info:
1.
USCIS - Instructions for Electronically Filing Form I-131 (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=e650065d85cee010VgnVCM1000000ecd190aRCR D&vgnextchannel=9059d9808bcbd010VgnVCM100000d1f1d6a1 RCRD)
If you filed Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status under the fee structure in place on or after July 30, 2007, then no fee is required to also file a request for a travel document on Form I-131 for an advance parole or refugee travel document. Those applications may not be electronically filed and must be submitted to USCIS via regular mail or courier service.
2.USCIS decides 1-131 is not eligible for fee waiver - probono.net - Asylum Law (http://www.probono.net/asylum/news/article.198509-USCIS_decides_1131_is_not_eligible_for_fee_waiver+ i-131+fee+waiver+july+2007&cd=4&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us)
The USCIS revisited a response they gave in the April National Stakeholder Meeting Q & A <http://www.uscis.gov/files/nativedocuments/CBO_042908.pdf> to question #7 regarding fee waivers on the I-485 application package. Their initial response indicated that a fee waiver may be applied to the I-131 (Application for Travel Document) if the I-485, I-765, and I-131 were filed concurrently after July 30, 2007 and the fee waiver application was granted on the I-485.
Upon review of the applicable law they now note that the I-131 is not actually eligible for a fee waiver at any time. The legal basis for this reasoning can be found in controlling language at 8 CFR 103.7(b) provides that "... no additional fee will be charged for a request for travel document (advance parole) or employment authorization filed by an applicant who has paid the Form I-485 application fee..."
Thanks,
Amar

Actually, you're no longer in H-1B status. If you end up getting another employer to sponsor you and you're RFE'd for your last 3 months of pay stubs to show your last day of work and it shows you entered the country after that date as an H-1B you will be denied your visa at the consulate.

Hi- My stamping on my passport expired on Sep'2008 (over 19 months now). But, my I-797 is valid till Aug'2012. I plan to get my visa re-stamping done when I go to India in May'10.
1. Will there be any issues?
2. What am I supposed to say for this question in the visa application website?
"Are you applying for the same class of visa which is currently valid or has expired within the past 12 months?*" (YES/NO)
The VFS website says the following:
"The following applicants do NOT qualify for appointments in the visa renewal category:
Applicants who have a U.S. visa that expired more than 12 months ago.
"
Thanks.
1. Any Issues?
As for as the standard procedures concerned, you will have no issues. There are chances for 221g, definitely not because of you have let the visa stamp expired, but if they need to check about your company.
2. You should choose "NO". You have crossed the timeline for a visa renewal queue and it is considered as a new h1 stamp. Keep in mind that this is just a queue, who gets appointments before you + can stand in front of you. As soon as you reach the counter, the procedures of how your request is validated by the visa officer is same as every other H1.

I had that issue as well ..my parents returned to US after 3 months and got a lot of questions. I don't think POE will deport your parents.
Thx
My friends mom had a issues, She was here 6 months and came back after 6 months . POE officer took her for inspection and called my friend and asked lot of question , gave the warning saying 'Visiting visa is for just visting not to stay in US'....
It's all depends on the officer & POE

Once a person had applied for 485, till they get advance parole if they had gone out of US, the application will be dropped.
I did hear that if you are in H1 B then it is not the case, but lots of Lawyers are advising not to get out of country till the person gets advance parole.
I do remember seeing lots of discussion in one of the portals on this topic, I remember that counselor processing is the option in this type of case.
This is a complex situation, you should consult a lawyer.

due to changes in procedures, a lot of the applications are going to the lock box facilities, this is slowing things down (it was actually supposed to make things go faster but we all know USCIS pretty well by now)
I have heard a lot of cases where it's taking about a month to get the receipt.

I believe you have to be in the US when your 140 is applied. Same goes for 485. Check with your lawyer. Once 140 or 485 is applied, you can travel outside.
For 485 you do indeed need to be in the US (for yoiu adjust status, you need to be in some status in the US). However for I-140 you need not be in the US. Can you point to any law or any link on any forum that says you need to be present for filing the I-140?
The complete GC process can be done without ever entering the US (do LC, file I-140, then do Consular processing for the final stage)

My attorney signed my I-485 AOS/EAD/AP applications and posted them on July 2nd as he was in a hurry to apply because of July 2nd scenario. Is it ok for the attorney to sign our papers. Is anybody in the same boat as me. I am a little concerned as the USCIS FAQ says application can be rejected if signature is missing. The application reached USCIS on July 3rd.
Yes it is ok for Attorney to sign the papers. Did you authorize them to sign on your behalf?

Got a 221g (pink) from Chennai consulate because I have a Phd in biology. After almost 4 weeks the status on the website was updated to 'submit passport'. I have a couple of questions. If anyone who has gone through a similar situation, can answer, I would very much appreciate it..
1. I have been asked to submit the passport to VFS. How long did it take for passport to be returned with visa.
2. I have already gone through the security clearance. Do I need to go through PIMS clearance again?
Please...appreciate responses from those who have gone through this themselves..
Thanks. Man..this has been an ordeal....
