In that scenario, you must the start the process all over again if you leave the company. You can retain the priority date of the approved I-140 petition.

a. If I move now, can I take my 3 yr extension filed by company A with me or
I think you can get the extension with new company too. While applying for the transfer request extension upto Feb 2010. You might have to provide the I140 approval again to prove that you are eligible for 3-year extension.
b. should I join company B in September 2007( when I complete 6 yrs) during the 3 yr H1B extension period ?
I think you can join the company immediately. To be in safe side you can apply for transfer in premium.
As you might be aware there is no such thing as H1B transfer - every h1b application is a new one for that company and you as beneficeiry. So when applying for H1B with new company - you have to provide evidence that you are eligible for the H1B. The evidence is to show you are already on H1B (so that you are not subject to annual cap); and that you have enough time on H1B if you already completed 6 years then evidence to prove that you are eligible for further extension of h1b. So in short yes you can get 3 years with new employer. (NOTE: I am not lawyer this is my understanding based on various sources; I am also considering moving after my i140 is approved).

Your wife can't change her status because she is not currently maintaining status if the H-1B was approved as a change of status. CIS will only approve a change of status with proof that the applicant has maintained status. She needs to leave the US and return in H-4 status to effect H-4 status. She has been out of status since October 2008.
Thanks so much Elaine!
I presume her change of status (COS) from H4 to H1 took place automatically when she received her I-797 Approval notice from CIS with an I-94 valid till Oct 2011. Is my presumption correct?
Now, will her next COS i.e. from H1 to H4 take place when she leaves the US and appears for H4 interview based on my current H1's (company B's) 1-797 Approval notice in consulate in India?
I dont have stamp of my current H1 (company B's) in my passport. I have only the old H1 stamp (company A's) in my passport, which is already expired. I also plan to leave for India for my H1 stamping. Which will be the better approach: she appearing for her H4 interview along with me when I appear for my H1 stamping or she going alone ahead of me for her H4 stamping? Many thanks in advance.

And on the top of that giving red flags.
One person already decided to be away from such "GUNDA RAJ". I'll also abstain for couple of weeks
Hope admins are competent enough to notice it.
I did not see any such threads. Please point me to it.
This is a problem. When we try to keep the forums clean, people complain and talk about 'freedom of speech' and that moderators act like dictators. They go and talk rubbish about IV elsewhere.
When we are flexible and allow people to express, people start complaining about abusive comments and posts.
One anonymous user commenting against other anonymous user is hardly of any consequence. To come to IV or not come to IV is your decision. Remember IV is not about forum or red dots or green dots. It is a platform for everyone to meet and work towards fixing the system. If a person is committed to the cause, he would not be bothered by any distraction.

Thanks a bunch! I appreciate you replying to this. it certainly relieves some of my stress.
Cheers
I can understand your concerns. A few years back we had similar questions and concerns when my MIL travelled. She was old and had never travelled alone before. Could not speak any english either. We thought it was best for her to travel with wheelchair assistance and it worked good. She has travelled twice ( on lufthansa) with no issues.
One thing we did to help her was give a covering letter that she could present to the airline staff which would explain her needs if any while travelling. We also prepared and gave her several flash cards (one liners) written in both the local Indian language alongwith the English translation for her to communicate if she needs anything on the flight.
Non -verbal communication works well sometimes. It worked for us.

I guess the old labor will be invalid by now as it has been already been over 45 after approval.
Ask a lawyer, because due to this labor substitution rule now you might have a problem. (" A GOOD LAWYER IS A SOLUTION HERE")
What do you mean by how can you bear the expenses. What a ?
Do what your company A is asking. I don't think that company A would file it for free.
Give it out of your pocket, that is how you bear it, work at a gas station, 7 eleven if you have to make more money to give him
Is the 45 day approved labor validity Rule already in place?

We do have the licence and bank accounts based on the h4 status.
My main question was when we can apply for SSN if the employee is right now in US on H4 visa and Change of Status to H1 is approved. Whether the SSN can be applied before Oct 1 is the main thing !
Thanks for the replies though, might help others in the same boat :)

just ignore H-1. you need not worry as you filed AOS. you need the H-1 approval only if you want to keep maintaining H-1 status by filing H-1 transfer with your new employer otherwise you can just ignore the H-1 you already filed. if you still want to revoke the H-1 petition, only your employer can do it as it is your company's petition.

Hi All,
Could any please provide some insight about the companies "Unemployment Wage report" for the state of California?
This is the only query as stated in the 221(g) form got from Chennai embassy for your reference.
"State Unemployment Wage Reports, showing all wages paid to each employee in the state, for the past two quarters as filed to State of California (This should not be payroll reports, but the actual forms filed to the State authorities listing each employee and wages paid during the quarter.)"
Could you please provide me the exact form name and number to submit through the dropbox. Also some explanation if possible on how the form will look like in order to track it down?
Any help in this regard is greatly appreciated.
Happy Holidays!
All the very best to all of you.
Thanks & Regards,
Chak

It should not be an issue. I know several people who have done this on a regular basis.
You can re-enter the country with an unexpired H1 visa stamp and by showing the new I-797. Change of employers does not invalidate a H1 visa stamp.

First off it is Alien REGISTRATION number and you can find it on the newer I-140 approvals OR you can use your OPT EAD card A# if you were ever on an F1.
IT IS NOT your passport number and it is issued by the USCIS. If you dont have it check with ur lawyer. If you are not sure pls leave it blank.

Sec 520(e) of the Cornyn Amendment SA 4005 requires that all backlogs be eliminated in six monts. If we are not behind this amendment, perhaps we should try to copy this provision into Brownback's?

I dont know about other IT like SAP etc, but software and hardware majors like Microsoft, Intel , Cisco, Yahoo, Google are facing tremendous shortage of skilled labor. For eg:
My wife recently graduated in CS. At the career fair, if the companies declared they wanted to get resumes only from Citizens and GC holders, their booths were empty and were waiting for people to turn up to them. If they allowed F1 students, there used to be a big queue and even the citizens were happy to be part of the queue. Bottomline is in addition to skills its also company culture. Companies that dont discriminate by visa types grow faster and have better work cultures.
Also in a graduating class of 100 people, there were barely 5-6 white or african american citizens, 5-6 Iranians, 5-6 others, rest were Indians and chinese in ratio of 60 to 40 pecent.
When it comes to PhDs there were suprisingly again higher number of US citizens and chinese but very few indians which led me to think that americans go for higher education in very small numbers or their number is small in graduate school but they go all the way up and complete PhD. Where as most Indians and chinese drop out after MS which is good but not really innovative research.
