You can take time off -- like 4 weeks without any issue (I have done this), as long as the new company has filed to transfer your H1B petition.
I guess you should avoid going out of status -- where the old company has revoked your H1B when the new company hasn't even filed the H1B transfer petition. Other than this, taking time off between jobs should not be any problem at all, provided you stay within the country and, no travel outside the US. But if you do, you should consult your lawyer about its implications. Good luck with your new endeavors.

I think approved I-140 is the right stage. Why do we have to live in uncertainty after an application for immigration has been approved. It also makes sense to request AOS for 5+ years of H1 as well.

H-1B Visa Employer that Does Not Effect a �bona fide termination� under the H-1B provisions Liable for back wages to H-1B Employee.
To employ H-1B visa nonimmigrants, an employer must fill out a Labor Condition Application (LCA). The LCA stipulates the wage levels that an employer guarantees for the H-1B visa worker�s pay. In signing and filing an LCA, an employer attests that for the entire �period of authorized employment,� the required wage rate will be paid to the H-1B nonimmigrant.
An employer need not compensate a nonimmigrant, however, if it has effected a �bona fide termination� of the employment relationship. To ultimately effectuate a �bona fide termination� under the INA, an employer must notify USCIS that it has terminated the employment relationship with the H-1B nonimmigrant employee so that USCIS may revoke approval of the H-1B petition. The employer must also provide the employee with payment for transportation home. Failure to do so may subject the employer to liability for back wages to the H-1B employee.
In Amtel Group of Florida v. Yongmahapakorn, Amtel provided notice to the H-1B visa employee that it had terminated the employment relationship. Amtel Group of Florida v. Yongmahapakorn, 04-087 (ARB 9/29/06). However, the court held that notice alone was not sufficient to end the employer�s obligation to pay the required wages to an H-1B employee. The employer does not effect a �bona fide termination� and, therefore, end its obligation to pay the required wages to the H-1B employee unless the employer has also notified USCIS. The court therefore ordered Amtel to pay the employee the prevailing wage for an internal auditor until the expiration of her authorized period of stay for H-1B employment, plus prejudgment compound interest on the back pay owed and post judgment interest until the employer made full payment.

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!

Hi,
My 6th year H1 expires in Feb'07 and company is ready to apply 7th year extension using premium processing. Assuming I get H1 extended by Oct 1st and travel to India in Nov for 2 weeks, is there a problem in coming back with old visa.
Since the appointments are full for the next 6 months I don't have any realistic chance of getting new stamping done during the trip. I know traveling while extension is pending is a big NO NO but if extension is approved am I allowed to use the old visa stamp?
thanks in advance

One of the reason may be L1 is misused very badly by body shoppers from all over the world.. example software companies ..
In case the person dont get H1B they will apply on L1 and get the green card fast, and also some guys come here on visit visa B1 Visa.
Meanwhlle genuine people here waitng for more than 10 years under Employment Based category.

It'd be great to get some more IVians to express their opinions/ideas and vote on this thread:
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?p=205773#post205773
The idea being bounced around is whether IV should be made an organization funded by membership dues, and benefits provided to members only.
The benefits:
- Logistics: Members identified/verified, not anonymous
- Communication: Improved one-to-one communication rather than hunting for information in forums. Perhaps even a newsletter updating you on what's going on, what's being planned, what are the activities.. and action items.
- Funding: Sustainable funding for lobbying efforts, media relations, etc.
- Live Nag-Free! No one asks you what you've contributed in every second post, you don't have to wear the ID tag of your contribution amount around your neck to prevent such questions
- Community: Be part of a community with a national presence, with local chapters.
- Legal advice: Get free legal advice in monthly/quarterly/periodic conf calls/webinars
- Jobs: Job postings or referrals on IV members-only site
- Business opportunities: Come together with other IV members to explore common business opportunities
- Myriad other benefits that memberships in professional organizations come with, such as travel discounts for instance.
The down-side:
- We may lose about half of our "members"
- Others???

1. What is the exact filing fee ? The latest I-131 instructions have this note -
NOTE: If you filed a Form I-485, Application to RegisterPermanent Residence or Adjust Status, as of July 30, 2007,no fee is required to also file a request for advance paroleon Form I-131. You may file the I-131 concurrently withyour I-485, or you may submit the I-131 at a later date. Ifyou file Form I-131 separately, you must also submit acopy of your Form I-797C, Notice of Action, receipt asevidence of the filing of an I-485 as of July 30, 2007.
My PD was current in July, and my application reached USCIS on July 2. Does this note mean I dont have to pay any fees for AP ?
2. How do I connect a new AP application to a filed 485 application ? I dont have receipt for the 485 application yet - it reached on July 2, 2007.
3. What do I fill in part 7 ? It has the following questions -
1. If the person intended to receive an advance parole document is outside the United States, provide the location (city and country) of the American embassy or consulate or the DHS overseas office that you want us to notify.
2. If the travel document will be delivered to an overseas office, where should the notice to pick up the document be sent:

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced today that it will begin accepting H-1B petitions (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) subject to the fiscal year (FY) 2011 cap on April 1, 2010. Cases will be considered accepted on the date that USCIS takes possession of a properly filed petition with the correct fee; not the date that the petition is postmarked.
The fiscal year cap (numerical limitation on H-1B petitions (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html)) for FY 2011 is 65,000. Additionally, the first 20,000 H-1B petitions filed on behalf of individuals who have earned a U.S. master�s degree or higher are exempt from the H-1B cap.
USCIS will monitor the number of petitions received and will notify the public of the date on which USCIS received the necessary number of petitions to meet the H-1B cap. If needed, USCIS will randomly select the number of petitions required to reach the numerical limit from the petitions received on the final receipt date. USCIS will reject cap-subject petitions that are not selected, as well as those received after the final receipt date.
We recommend employers to hurry up and get all the necessary documents in order to meet the April 1, 2010 deadline.

Immigration Visa Attorney Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
The attorneys at Fong & Chun, LLP have helped hundreds of legal immigrants seek citizenship over the years. Whether we have worked with you at a naturalization drive, through labor unions, or in our own offices, citizenship is the ultimate goal of most immigrants. Today, the government announced (http://articles.latimes.com/2010/aug/22/local/la-me-refugee-assistance-20100823) that cash assistance to elderly and disabled immigrants who were granted entry based on humanitarian reasons may lose benefits unless they have naturalization applications pending. Many of those affected are people who were granted asylum or refugee status.
Most immigrants are eligible for naturalization after a 3 or 5 year period after their initial residency period begins. Many immigrants delay applying for naturalization because they fear the English or history exams. While the naturalization exam can seem daunting, the government allows for applicants to re-take their exams if they fail the first time. Some immigrants who are long term residents may even take the examination in their native language, but many immigrants simply put off the naturalization process because it has become intimidating or costly. However, in most cases, an immigrant who truly desires to naturalize and is eligible to do so can make an application and be successful with the right type of support and preparation. Today's announcement by the administration poses yet another reason for immigrants who have been putting off their citizenship application to call and find a qualified immigration attorney (http://www.fongandchun.com/lawyer-attorney-1416111.html) to help them with the process. Fong & Chun encourages those eligible for naturalization make an application and realize their dreams of finally becoming US citizens. ---ecf
