Looks great. So how does it go with this amendment? Has it been ordered to lie on the table or sit up straight in a chair?

The company should really have changed your husband to H-1B before the end of his 6th year in L-1 status. You count L-1 and H-1B time together to get a maximum of 6 years H-1B. Since he has almost used 6 years, and the cap has been reached for h-1Bs, he cannot change now. If the permanent residence (PR) process had been filed before the end of his 5th year, and he had changed to H-1B, he could get 7th+ year H-1B extensions while the PR process was ongoing. Unfortunately, there are no such extensions for L-1 holders, so that once they reach the end of their maximum stay, they must leave.
The company could file for your husband's PR while he is outside the US, and this is worth discussing.

Has anyone recently used AP to enter the US from San Francisco, CA?
I would appreciate if you can please share your experience and the documents you carried (showed) at the POE.
Thanks
I entered USA from SFO on Aug 15 with AP. No questions asked. They only asked for AP and advised me to renew it as the current AP is expiring in December.

I doubt that. Returning after a long period on AP would sure make the POE officer grill that person, as AP is supposed to be used in case of emergencies and humanitarin grounds. I was grilled at IAD on return after 30 days and the POE officer asked me to present documentary evidence of the emergency to travel outside US.
No, no maximum. You just have to have had the AP in hand when you left the US.

Guys -
Senator Cornyn is proposing an amendment to the DOD bill SA 2143. I am not able to read the text of this in Senate.org. We may have to start our campaign again for a permanent fix soon.
NumbersUSA is reporting this in their website. Please we need to mobilize soon.

Do not worry about it. As long as you keep your job, you are fine. I've been thru the same situation, did not do anything special and got my GC.
Its not enough just to be employed. What's even more important is that if and when USCIS sends a query/RFE to find out whether or not you have a future job offer, for which your GC was filed by employer A in first place, you should be able to get your current employer to produce a letter saying "We will hire Mr./Ms XYZ on ABC job with asdkfjdjfkasj description upon him getting green card" something like that.
It doesnt matter where you are working at that time. It could be company B, C, D, E , F or a merged company of above combinations.
Getting such a letter is no big deal in bigger companies, takes one email to HR and they will produce such a letter. But to be on safe side, talk to your current and future employers after using AC21 portability 106(c) that they are comfortable writing such a letter.
If you are on H1 when after using AC21 portability, and if your company gets merged/acquired, I think if the merged entity (new company) has become the successor in interest of the original company (company B) you may not have to file an amendment to H1, as long as your job duties, location of work etc have not changed. (Check with your lawyer please). You can continue on same H1. However, if you are on H1 and if company has been merged/acquired then its safer to get h1 amended or new H1 if you are travelling abroad. (Unless you are going to use AP for re-entry).
But if you are using EAD, then there is nothing to amend, just continue working. EAD doesnt depend on who the employer is, it just is an interim work permit until your adjustment of status is done.

Hello,
My PERM case was filed on mid-May and got audited on May 28.
Will it be appropriate for me to join you all for the complaint or if my case is too recent?
Thanks.

I don't want to use EAD/AP, as I want to have a backup.
Gps, look at the below link, it should be informative and useful in your case.
EAD or H1:
Unless until you have any dependants still to be included in your GC, go for EAD get done with the H1 headache.

Hello Everybody,
My wife & I have our 485 interviews in January. Any advice is appreciated. Mine is a EB (EB- 2) petition. Our PD is April 2006. We filed for 485's in July 2007 and our 485's were transferred to National Benefits Center in 2008. I was promoted hence my title is different now from what was filed on the Labor application and job duties only changed a little bit. My petitioner is the same,
Couple of questions -
Will they interview my wife & I together ?
Is it advisable to take the immigration attorney with us for the interview.?
Can the IO approve the case on the spot.?
Can IO stamp the passport since my PD is current.?
If somebody can direct me to any recent experiences for folks who did have interviews - that would be really helpful.
Thanks!
Ritesh

I cam through Fankfort in last dec using AP. No worries.
Anyone travelled recently through Germany (Frankfurt) using Advance Parole? Any issues with Advance Parole while coming back to US? Do we need transit visa? Appreciate your response.

As per the last revised visa bulletin, the extension period for filling I-485 is Aug 17. But it talks about only I485 and not about I-140.
So can anyone confirm, if one can file I-140 and I-485 concurrently from Aug 1 to Aug 17.

Indian Banks are not obligated to report interest Income and send a 1099 as they are not bound by US Laws. Citi sends it since it is a US Bank
