Hi,
I am a resident of the Chennai Consular District and I made an emergency appointment (returning US worker-H visa) for my H-1 renewal visa at New Delhi through the vfs website. I was not able to find any appointments at the Chennai consulate. I happened to know today through the New Delhi Embassy website that their emergency appointments are reserved only for residents of the New Delhi Consular District. I'm confused as to how/why the vfs website allowed me to make an appointment without providing this information. I am now unable to find any regular appointments available at New Delhi or emergency appointments at Chennai.
Also, the vfs website has a news update from Dec.4th stating that anyone (fluent in english) can now apply at New Delhi, Chennai or Mumbai. I do not know if this precludes the emergency appointment requirement at New Delhi as stated above or if this is a more up to date info.
If anyone here has any information/experience about this, I would appreciate a response.
Thank you.

'Masala Dosa' and I met with staff of Senators Mel Martinez and Bill Nelson. The meetings went very well. We had the opportunity to see the compromise announcement on the floor while we were in the office of Senator Martinez. That was a good deal.
We talked about IV, our individual cases, the need for reform and possible amendments the Senators could raise - like parity with agricultural workers (ability to self-sponser greencard), I-485 application even when priority not current, backlog elimination center update and the need to push it through, support for existing immigration reform bill, explained why the hard country limit is bad for Indians, Chinese and Philippinos and urged them to talk about keeping the limit at 10% and yet allowing unused numbers to flow to India and China.
One observation we had was that the staff had no clue what is the difference between H-1B and Greencard processing. So we spent some time educating them about how the quotas are formed, the caps etc ...
We have them all the material mentioned in the IV site for reading. Hopefully the feedback trickles down to the Senators and we get to have some of our amendments. The best part of it whether these amendments come or not is that we made an attempt to explain our problems to Senators.
Overall, it was a fruitful trip, and a well spent day. I will continue to follow up with the Senators office and keep in touch with the staff. 'Masala Dosa' will follow up with staff at his place.
We need to move on to the next step and target who would be on the committee for reconciling House and Senate versions. I am looking forward to folks who are knowledgeable in this matter to come forward and give the info.
Let us make this bill through this time and get our greencards. :D

I got my physical EAD card but my online status still says pending. Don't know what's going on at USCIS now.
When does your current EAD expire?
When did you apply for your EAD? Which Service Center? Paper or e-filed?
Pl. advise. Thanks.

If you are on H1 then the ticket should be provided for by your employer - that is my understanding of the law.

H1, H4 (spouse) and H4 (kid) living happily.
File 485 and gets EAD/AP.
H1 doesn't use EAD.
H4 uses EAD and hence looses H4 status.
I-485 is denied.
Now, my understanding is that spouse has to go out of country and come back again on H4.
What about the kid?
When does the kid loose his/her H4 status? (When both mother and father use EAD)?
As long as primary stays in H status any derivative who does not change his H4 status will stay in H4 status. the only way a H4 can loose H4 status if he/she uses EAD. In your case if i have understood it correctly ur Kid will never use EAD and if you never used EAD ur H1 status is active thus ur kids H4 is active .. also i think ur wife can change her status back to H4 but would require her to file some paperwork .. she might need to geta visa stamp when she tries to re-enter into us..

Hi All,
I sent h1b extension application to california center on june 22nd and my application is still not approved. My current visa was valid until July 30th. I need to travel to India on Dec 10th due to urgent reasons . Please suggest what should I do
1. Can I travel while my extension is pending?
2. Can I raise a service request to speed up the processing?
2. or Upgrading to PP is the only option?
I do have EAD and advance parole through my husband's GC application. If I use parole for travel what happens to my H1b visa and GC application filed through my employer. My visa will still be valid or not?
Please help...
Thanks in advance

Answers:
1. There is nothing/ no one who can stop you from travelling if you want. The question to worry about is can you come back ;) (I know it is a smart alec answer, but couldn't resist it - and that is indeed the bottom line).
2. SR to speed up processing might not be of much help
3. PP will certainly make it time bound - however, even in case of PP, they can send the application for administrative process, which can still take more than the time you have
Now, what happens in case you travel while the application is still pending? Your application for extension will be considered abandoned, and for re-entry, you will necessarily need to use AP. And since your extension is considered abandoned, you will necessarily need to use EAD to work, even for your current employer (that had filed the extension).
Hope it helps.

If I-140 is approved and priority date is current is it possible to keep on extending H1B for couple of years without applying for I-485? I am asking this quetion because my employer is not allowing me to apply for I-485 as my I-140 is pending. It looks like he want to use me for couple of years on H1b.

Post date is NOT Important. What's important is the "delivered" date. Think about. USCIS can't and is not responsible for postal delays. If one sends a package and somehow it does not get delivered for 14 days, USCIS cannot mark the application received until and when it receives it, period.
Please check before posting untrue statements. So even if your application reaches the uscis on the July 3rd, but uscis enters your application to the system on August 1st, your filed date will be July 3rd. So don't worry. Make sure your package reaches USCIS in July and you will be OK.

I did it in Ottawa. At that time we could get the visa stamped the same day in Ottawa. Now I think we need to wait for one more day (2 days in all). But make sure you read the Consulate website before proceeding. Different consulates have slightly different procedures.
You have to book the dates for the interview online. Once the date is booked, the Consulate will send you a confirmation letter. You can apply for a Canadian Visitor visa showing this letter.
The Consulate has given a list of required documents. Carry all of them. Also try to get all documents listed on the Chennai consulate too (they have listed more documents), that way you are safe.
Since Canada is almost like the United States, you wont feel that you have reached a strange land. You just feel like you are in another US city!
Thanks for that information! How long did it take you to get it stamped? Did you have to book a date with the consulate there? Can you give me a little walk through?
Thanks again

1. Send all AOS forms and proof of pregnancy from the doctor. They will issue RFE or you can send medical after the delivery. Don't take risk while on pregnancy. RFE reply will get 30-45 days time.
2. If your current visa is not expired, you can delay in filing I-485. Just file I-130 now.

Guys:
I know this has been asked gazillion times but jsut wanted to make sure I got it right.
On uscis website for my I-485 it says " On June 9th we recieved you application and ........so forth.
The date when this is done is June 13th as seen on the LUD.
So my understanding is that my 6 months period for me to knick in the AC21 rule would be Dec'9th.
Is this correct ??
Thanks

Hi Friends,
I am visiting to India on vacation and need to go for H1B renewal. My natvie place is in Andhra Pradesh, near to Chennai. So, i am comming from USA to Chennai, and wants to go to Chennai Consulate for stamping.
In vfs site the moment i select AP, it showing only Hyderabad appointment dates. how to choose and schedule appointment in Chennai consulate?
Can any of you suggest, how to proceed? is there any issues of going to Chennai rather Hyderabad?
I am resident of AP and went for my renewal last year to Chennai since its nearer to my place as compared to Hyderabad. There is no explicit way to get Chennai. They have a small percentage or limited slots available for out of state applicants at every consulate and as long they are available you should see the option to pick Chennai.
Initially, I did not get the Chennai option as well, but I kept checking and waited for a few weeks and when Chennai option was available I scheduled the appointment. Hope this helps.
