Hi,
The hotel I stayed was Shalimar, bit expensive about Rs 7000 a day. The hotel is really good with complimentary breakfast buffet. The consulate is walkable distance from the hotel. VFS also offers some facilities, please check with them.
I did not have to pay addition fee because the new fee came in to effect later. I paid the equivalent of $131 for each applicant!
Cheers
Raj
You mean to say you paid $150 for each applicant. Right? Or you were done with stamping before June 4th itself?
The new fee for H1B (effective June 4th,2010) is $150.

My experience is that you can't collect your passport same day of your interview. After your interview, your visa will be approved. But your passport will get to VFS hand only after 2 business days. You might have to stay in Chennai for 2 days after your interview to be able to collect the passport from VFS counter in Chennai. I had same issue. I was suppose to be in US day after interview and passport was struck between consulate and VFS. I ended up coming to US 3 days after my initial Plan. Good luck. This is my experience from Nov 2006.

I am holding MCA with 10+ years experience. My degree got evaluated to be equivalent to MS in US.
Just to let you know switching from EB3 to EB2 is not as simple as one would think. I assume you are aware of it.
To switch you need to start from Labor and be careful with the job requirements. And then your educational qualification and work experience.
Here are the EB2 minimum requirement.
JOB should require minimum of Bachelors degree with 5 years experience or Masters with or without experience.
Good luck.:)

G-28 is for attorney representation - if a registered attorney is representing an applicant we give the authoraization so that USCIS deal directly with attorney. I am not sure if there is anything like "G-28 Self". In case where we already filed G-28 and gave authorization to one attorney - changing it to another attorney seems a bit straight forward - send a new G-28 and request to supersede it with earlier one. But just cancelling the earlier one so we represent ourselve seems a bit grey. But its just my understanding if anyone has done self representation and successfull changed G-28 - please let all of us know.
(Note: I am thinking of going with lawyer just for this G-28; my old employer may not revoke approved I140 so I was thinking of not sending AC21 letter; but want to change the lawyer representation so that any communication will get to me; no lawyer is offering just this everyone I talked to are clubbing G-28 with AC21 and charging accordingly)

Agreed.
Unfotunately, there is no way to poll more than one option.
More than Salary its location which matters.
50K in MS = 60K in TX = 80 K in CA = 90K NYC

Thanks a lot for the response Glus. So if I understand right, my chances of getting a non immigrant Visa (F1/B1/Visitor) is forever impaired because I decided to ditch US and leave for my home country once upon a time?
In other words, I can never step back into the US?

If you look at the forms page on the USCIS website, it says previous editions of the I-485 form accepted.

Hi All,
Anybody got any H1B extensions approved in the last 2 months - Please reply to this thread.
Been hearing things that H1B extensions are getting RFEd and even denied. Don't want to depend on rumors.
Thanks

For my canada GC i calibrated my camera, took pictures of 3 of us with my 3 mega-pixel camera, and printed at walmart on 4x6 then cut 27 X 27mm, and it worked, i have canada GC. just make sure front face, white b/g, enough brightness. i would not risk it for my US GC though.

Not sure what exactly your objective is but usually the severence package is pretty good with big employers- why get paranoid and loose all that money especially when it is something you worked hard to earn. For somebody with 6 years experiance it shouldnt be that difficult to find a job. I say be confident complete your job and go for new job. If your transfer of I485 gets denied what the heck you got H1B and if not homeland india with bunch of money you saved up :). Some times the question should be asked "is it worth it?"

Eventually something's got to give. Standoffs don't remain forever. Just like 1st world war
trench warfare was a standoff tactic but was eventually made redundant by invention of tanks.
Same way this standoff wont remain forever (of course many waiting EB2/3 I might lose patience ), either GOP will get into power and force the piecemeal through or Hispanic caucus might gain even more power to force CIR through.
Repeated failures might weaken the CIR coalition (Refer the Greg Siskind post about MALDEF chief few months back).
gop will not force piecemeal..... i heard that us chamber of commerce gives a lot of money to gop...... chamber of commerce wants cir..... they will oppose piecemeal if gop is in power.... maybe they already did oppose it the last time gop was in power......
repeated failures will not weaken cir coalition..... as it seems the coalition is getting stronger.....
my guess is after the election cycle is over..... they will do cir...... but there will be no piecemeal..... the sooner we understand this.... the better it will be for us.... & for those of us who wants to leave..... try taking the flight over the pacific becoz flights r not going out of europe for now....

There is no problem re-entering with a valid AP, even if the validity date is the day you re-enter.
You will have a problem if your AP is expired. My daughter came back with just one month on her AP and she was stamped with extra 6 months on I-94. But I don't know the reason for that.

Hi Guys,
Need some help. I have labor via PERM(EB2) and I-140 from my present employer. Labor was filed in December 2005. I had applied for Labor by RIR in Sep 2002 from my previous company which closed down in 2004. The old company's attorney has contacted me that the labor is approved. That labor was under EB3.
Both companies are engaged in similar operation, job profile now is more than previous company and both companies are in the same demographic area. Can I port my PD and retain EB2. If I can do that I can file I-485 now.
Any advice will be greately appriciated.:confused: :confused: :confused:

No.
We did not renew her I-94. She's my dependent and I'm EAD. She doen't even have an EAD, I haven't appllied for her yet.
Our I-94 are expired now and our AP too. If I need to travel, I will need to apply for a new AP.
BTW, we entered through Denver (DIA).
All you need is your passport and AP. That's all!!!!
You will be on a separate line and the immigration officer will ask you to go to a room and wait there while they verify your status. They will ask you questions to check if your anwers are consistent with your records.
Thanks again lagsum. Do you recollect what questions were asked by the officer to you and to your daughter?
