I am trying to get a green card for the US. My parents are from east asia and I was born in Canada. I went to University in Maryland from 1992-96 and obtained my dental license. I am licensed in the US and intend to purchase a dental office soon. I will still be keeping my dental office in Canada for at least 1 year once I am able to work in the US. I heard about a investment visa however I am not investing more than $400k but it will employ at least 4 US nationals(ctizens). Can I still use the investment visa or can I get a visa for opening a secondary dental office in the US and still keep my existing office in Canada until I qualify for a green card. Also can anyone recommend a good lawyer. How much should it cost for me and my family(wife and 3 children ). Email me if you wish AT

Hi,
I have a questions and recommendation request.
Question first:
-> I am currently on H1 B
-> I have filled my 485 and have EAD with priority date Nov 17, 2006
-> I am planning to change job now.
-> Question is; should I file for H1 Xfer or just take my chances with EAD?
The request is for an immigration attorney that can help my new employer file H1 Xfer and AC-21.
Thanks for help in advance

Graham: DREAM Act push damaged wider immigration reform effort
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said Saturday that the failed Democratic effort to pass the DREAM Act in the lame duck session dealt a blow to future talks on a wider immigration bill.
�It was an exercise to try and taint Republicans with Hispanic voters, knowing that the DREAM Act under these circumstances could never pass,� Graham told reporters in the Capitol after the bill sputtered on the floor.
�What they have done on the DREAM Act is hurt overall comprehensive immigration reform,� he said.
The DREAM Act, which would give legal status to illegal immigrants who came to the country at a young age, lived here for at least five years, graduated from high school and attended college or served in the military, fell five votes short of the 60 needed to overcome a GOP-led filibuster � 55 to 41.
Graham has worked with Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) in the past to try and seek a Capitol Hill compromise on a wider reform plan -- one that would blend increased enforcement and border security with a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants, among other measures.
He said the DREAM Act effort will make it harder to bridge divides on immigration, noting the impassioned advocacy on both sides of the issue.
�Our base is all riled up that this is amnesty, so you have taken a debate on immigration, one part of it, you have gotten people emotional before you can sit down and reason your way through a comprehensive bill,� Graham said. �Doing this vote the way they did it has hurt the ability to do comprehensive reform next year to some extent.�
What Graham conveniently forgets is that he gave up on the immigration bill, because it was being taken up before the 2010 elections!

Hello There,
I want to apply for my 3 yrs H extension using preminum processing. Can i do that by just using the email confirmation from USCIS that I-140 petition was approved? My 1-140 petition was approved in Dec,2006 and still have not recived my approval notice.
Thanks,
If I recall correctly, you need to send a copy of approved i140 to request 3 years extension.

Hi,
I am a july 21 filer and received I-485 notices on Sept 26. I am required to join my job on Oct 8 and i want to use the EAD for that.
My question is, if i see the status as "card ordered" before Oct 8, then can i call USCIS to get the EAD number before joining the job. OR does the employer need to be shown the EAD card before joining.
It looks like it is taking 1 week from notice date to see the status change to "Card Ordered" and another 7-10 days or more to get the card.
thanks,

My Daughter is traveling on AP, she does not have an EAD.
Her H4 is valid until 8/1/2010, and AP is valid until 10/10/2008. She is coming back here on 8/12/2008
Can anyone please help me with this question?
What will be her status, after using AP? Will she be on H4? I can not apply EAD for her.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Citizenship and Immigration Services (CIS) Ombudsman's office recently released a recommendations status chart (PDF 181KB) of all of the formal and Annual Report recommendations made to the USCIS since the establishment of the CIS Ombudsman's Office in July 2003. This chart also includes a summary of the USCIS's response and any implementation of a recommendation.

Yes you would need a transit visa. In fact in Air India (not sure about other airlines) without transit visa you cannot even board the plane from US

Hi,
I just got my H1B visa and I am working. My wife is currently on F-1/OPT. We are both in the USA. Could you please advise me what is the required documents/steps to apply for her for H4 visa? are there any inf on the web? can I do that myself?
Thank you,
John
Like PMAT mentioned, I-539 is to be used, and you can do it by yourself, if you'd like. Download the latest form from http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/ (immigration forms).
You will need, I-129, photocopy of your passport, your I-94 (current), Photocopy of Marriage certificate.

If I were you, I would go ahead and file H1B Extension with pending LCA and submit the approved labor later instead of dealing with consequences of going out of status.

This is a Reuter news and going to be pick by many news agency. It was already posted in our News Thread.

U.S. companies are also clamoring for more H1B visas to allow foreign software engineers and other skilled workers into the country.
The 65,000 visas allotted for 2007 were taken by the end of May last year, months before the end of the fiscal year in September, said Jack Krumholtz, the head of Microsoft Corp.'s government affairs office. It is also difficult to get permanent U.S. residency for foreign workers who would like to stay, he said.
"This is becoming for high-tech companies a huge retention issue," Krumholtz said. "We will start to see highly valued tech employees emigrate back to their home countries."

AILA Leadership Has Just Posted the Following:
In an interview on David Letterman (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpvNXPPOMr8), actor Robert Downey, Jr., talked about a problem he had last year in Japan, when upon entering he was detained and questioned about his past criminal record. Downey said: I probably should have seen there was a sign that said 'No Felons Allowed' in English and Japanese and I haven't had that expunged yet," he said. "You can actually get things expunged but I've been pretty busy. So I was detained, I was interrogated. It was a blast.
Haven't you settled up? Haven't you paid your debts? Letterman asked.
Clearly I haven't paid my debts to Japan, said Downey.
While I certainly feel somewhat bad for Mr. Downey, this short exchange gave the impression that nothing similar would ever happen in America! Hah!
U.S. Immigration Law contains restrictions that bar entry to people forever, for virtually any youthful indiscretion they have ever had, e.g. simple possession of a marijuana 20 years ago, without regard to whether or not you were actually convicted of the crime! You do not even need to have been convicted; the fact that you admit you did it will also get you barred from entry. Heck you will even be bounced (http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/43) from the United States after overstaying your visa for one day, leaving one day late, and then trying to come back in on that visa. Or, you will be detained and returned because the officer thinks you MIGHT be working (http://addxorrol.blogspot.com/2007/07/ive-been-denied-entry-to-us-essentially.html).
So, if you were watching David Letterman and thanking your lucky stars that America is far nicer to arriving tourists than Japan--think again!
