are you guys saying that the "costs" for the medical exams can be reimbursed by our insurance companies? I did not know that... In case that is true, I will submit mine for reimbursement...
thanks for the info..

There is not anything like withdrawing AC 21. It was to show that you worked in a different company with similar job description.
The question is, did you send a letter to say you are changing jobs using AC 21?
If you did not send the letter, then you really do not need to do anything. Just join your original sponsor. If there is an RFE, you can always prove that you worked in a similar job category.

Does anybody know what the fees are for filing EAD (yearly) extensions if you filed for EAD, 485 before August 17.
Thanks,
$340.
It is listed on the USCIS website beside the link for the I765 form.

Last Status counts situation DOES NOT apply here.
That rule applies to situations where you've gone from h1b to h4 or ead etc..
In your case, you can have as many approved h1b petitions as possible since it's really petition approved for that employer and your are merely beneficiary.
BUT you can ONLY work for 1 employer at a time..
Going by your situation.. if you have approved h1 from company B and are working with company B. THEN you are okay.. to hell with what company A may choose to do..

Not sure about specific places, but in general problems are when you are coming back to US.
If you have stamped and valid h1b for returning back to US, you should be fine.
I have not had any issue or heard of any issues while visiting mexico, hawaii or alaska
HTH
Hawaii and Alaska are states that are part of US and you are free to travel anywhere in the 50 states of US without the need to show Visa or travel Document. However its not the same with Mexico. Its a different country.

I am currently working as a Functional Solution Architect in an IT firm.
Current Status: H1B (6th year)
GC status as follows:
Priority Date: April 2007
EAD received: October 2007
I-140 is approved.
Under the AC21 portability I believe I can change my employer without affecting my GC process. However I want to change my field of work from IT to Finance. My question is:
1. Is that permissible and can I use my EAD to work for a new employer in a different field.
2. If the above is not permissible and If I change my job in the same field, can my previous employer cancel my GC process, even though my I-140 is approved. If they can, how can I mitigate that possibility.
Thanks in advance for your response.

Here is one of the comments below that article that makes sense too (claims to be from a congressional staffer):
As a congressional staffer, I'd say you should just call. Even if you address the letter to the LA, it will likely be passed off to an intern or an LC (legislative correspondent). Writing to constituents is not fun, and most offices have people that do it all day long.
More than likely, an intern will pick up. DO NOT just start rambling about whatever issue you want to gripe about. This signals the person who answered that you are crazy, and should not be speaking to a staff member. They are very busy, and no one is going to pass a crazy person off to their boss. The intern will know to either say "We'll pass that on for you" (which he will not), or say "I've made a note and I'll deliver it to the congressman" (again, he will not). Interns don't know anything, nor do they have the power to do anything.
Instead, simply say your full name and ask whoever is on the phone to speak with the LA who handles the issue about which you are concerned. Be calm, be stern. If you speak to the LA, don't just start off with "I have some opinions I'd like you to know; here they are!" Instead, ask questions! Ask what the congressman's positions are on the issues. Ask why. Explain your own position. Finally, ask if there is any other information the staffer might need.
You might be passed off to voice mail. Do NOT give your opinions here. Simply say that you have some concerns about a certain issue, and that you would like a call back.
Most offices have daily callers and letter writers who leave incoherent notes and messages about anything from UFOs to mexican truck drivers. Your goal should be to separate yourself from this crowd.
Do this, and be rational, and you just might make a difference.

Many times you get 10 year visa that does not mean they can stay for 10 years. You never get to stay more than 6 months and under exceptional circumstances that is increased to a year.
First of all, does US consulate give visa valid for 2 months? I know some countries do, especially if you are applying through SOTC like travel agents.
Ok.. to answer your question: Your parents _must_ start within 2 months from the time 2-month Visa issued. In other words, your parents must travel before the expiry of Visa in the passport.
Once they come here, how long can they stay _legally_ in USA depends on I-94 card. Typically I-94 card will be given with an expiry date, which I belive will not be _beyond_ expiry date of the Visa in the passport.
Hope this helps!!

I think you should send a copy of the 485 Receipt notice.. This is a classic, Right hand not knowing what the left hand does situation with USCIS..
I received an RFE for my EAD renewal.
It says "Please submit proof that you have filed an I-485 Application"
I have a copy of my receipt of I-485. Would that be enough to send? Why would they ask for proof of I-485? This is my second EAD renewal.
Please let me know.
Thanks.

I didn't get an email, but I checked my case status online and it has changed to Decision today. Waiting to get the snail mail. Hopefully, it will move to card production ordered soon. My wife has a FP appt on Jul 15, so I wasn't expecting to get approval before that, but I guess sometimes the surprises are pleasant.

that makes no sense. backlog and being current mean exact opposite things.
the meaning of backlog is to indicate that there AREN'T enough visas available to make a category current. being current means there ARE enough visas available for your category.
so in essence, someone who is current isnt considered back-logged or vice-versa.
where did you hear such nonsense?
I heard that only applicants who are current are considered as backlogged - is this true?
Applicants who are not current - which statistical group do they belong to?

HI
I filed this week my N400 based on a 5 years rule;
I am a freelance book writer and a web market engeneer;
In 2005 I was let go from my job; I filed for unemployment and I traveld to Asia working part time as writer and looking for a new job and find new places to write about in my book;
the trip lasted 5 months,
I attached my taxes for the last 5 years to the application:
will CIS look at the taxes for 2005 and look at the unemployment benefits together with my international travel?
AM I in trouble when I show up for the interview? I am concerned
pls advice
thank you
I dont think international travel should be a problem as long as you have spent more than half of your last 5 years in the US.
I have heard (IANAL - so please double check) Unemployment benefit is an insurance claim. Your employer (and indirectly you, in the form of foregone salary) paid the premium for it while you were employed. It is technically not supposed to be a government dole. So technically, even that is not supposed to be a problem.
Why dont you spend a few hundred dollars to get a consultation with a good immigration attorney? The potential impact if something goes wrong is way too much for you to rely on questionable advice from strangers in an internet forum.
