I happen to hear that its more easy to convert from L1 visa to Green card .Is it something that the employer has to initiate ? Can we start the process by ourselves.
please shed some light on this.
Thanks
You may be eligible to file under EB1-C. Your employer needs to sponsor.

It is very late to be submitting the RFE response now. CIS will probably deny the H-1B and your employer will need to refile. The employer should have asked for an extension before the due date.

07/06/2007: Hard Working Women and Men in USCIS Behind the Visa Number Fiasco
From the information available thus far, this reporter believes that no one in the agencies intended to bring about this fiasco. It was lack of close communication and coordination between the USCIS and the DOS and more or less a poor handling of the situation at some level within the USCIS. The people should remember that there are many and many women and men in the agency involved who worked hard just like you and me to do the given jobs, including managers, supervisors, and other higher ups. The agencies should take this fiasco as a good opportunity to learn a lesson on what could go wrong in the management of immigration services and responsibilities affecting hundreds and thousands of other human beings. This reporter has been visiting the field offices, particularly Nebraska Service Center and other local field offices, almost every single year for over past 20 years and have met the "human" faces of hard working officers and other workers working in tiny cubicles and facilities that cannot be described as fancy offices but more or less factories and plants. When I report the current news, this reporter sees the faces of the women and men that I have met who worked in the not necessarily fit office space and environment. Without doubt, the current fiasco should be one way or another corrected and prevented in the future. However, the people should not take this opportunity to dehumanize the current event and easily demonize other people with no faces. Probably this is the time when these women and men need most an emotional support and boost from their invisible customers. After all, things will go through the legal process or other processes to correct the mistake. Low morale of these women and men will help no purposes and causes. On behalf of our readers, we want to send a big "CHEER UP" to these women and men!

Do I need to provide any proof during the interview stating he is my step son? or the documents between the mother and the son will suffice?
Proof that he is biological son of your wife (birth certificate).

I am on the same boat...my wife got H1 approval recently without COS, and H4 extension applied two weeks ago (on top of it I-485 has been applied).
My lawyer suggested to file for H4 extension to cover that gap that is there before H1-B takes effect i.e. October 1st (or she will be Out Of Status). And after October 1st, revoke the H4 petition.

Hello,
The dept. of labor uses two types of codes, one of which is the SOC code. Yours may be a SOC code (Standard Occupational Classification) or the other one (name I can't remember). If you look at Murthy.com and search for articles on AC21, you'll find information on the two types of codes the DOL uses. The go to the DOL website and do a search for the two types of occupational codes and see which classification system your code matches. Once you access the classification, just look for your number and it should give you a brief description. I did this for my code.

Dear IV Members,
For those of us who have followed the immigration debate for last couple of years, we know that Stuart Anderson is one of the few sane voices when it comes to high skilled immigration.
Stuart has recently published a complete book on Immigration and how it applies to business and economics. The book also covers important background and relevant history of the Immigration bills, key players and how the events around us affect us all. Here is the link to the recently published must read book by Stuart -

I am in a very Bad situation it seems, please help.
I am working in US on L1B visa and Wife on L2. then Wife got a Job and her employer filled her 485.
In the mean time I applied for H1 (through a consultant, to get out of the L1B company). Looks like the H1 Got Approved. Now, I think the problem is, If I switch to H1, then she will loose her job and our chance of Getting EAD will go.
I do NOT want to go for H1, but EAD Is important to me. Is there a Way I can keep my L1? (so that my wife can keep her job)
Please help
Check your H-1b approval notice. If it is a visa to be issue abroad petition,then you have nothing to worry about.
if it is a change of status approval with an I-94, then you need to get out of the US on or before the day the change of status becomes effective and then return back to the US on or after the day the change becomes effective with your current L visa.

Hi,
My labor was filed in Feb 2003. I got my 45 day letter last year or so and was replied by my employer. But still now no word on it? What do you suggest? Are we supposed to contact USCIS through my attorney?
Please suggest.

It turns out that it was the photos. I had already sent it. So, don't know why they are asking again. I am resending the photos now. I had a question. Though it is simple, I don't want to take any chances as we are planning a travel soon. They have asked me to write my name and Alien number on the back of the photo in pencil or felt pen. I tried writing using a pencil and it is not readable. So, what is a felt pen ? Is the idea here that whatever is written on the back of the photo should not leave an impression on the front of the photo. Thanks for your response.

Hello Gurus,
Here is my situation and I really appreciate your advice:
I have filed my I-485, EAD, and AP thru my employer (consulting company) in EB3 category. I have received my EAD and AP but i havent invoked AC21.
I also have approved labor (PD--01/2006), and approved I-140 in EB2 category thru my client's company.
Since, EB3 category is not going anywhere, I am thinking of filing another I-485 thru my client in EB2 category.
1) Is it possible for me to file second I-485 in EB2 category while first I-485 is waiting for approval?
2) Can i port my EB3 PD (12/2003) while filing 2nd I-485 thru client?
Thanks in advance!!!
