US rolls out new online visa form in India
By IANSJanuary 6th, 2010
NEW DELHI - With the demand for US visas surging by the day, the US embassy and its consulates in India have introduced a new online non-immigrant visa (NIV) application form to cut out needless delays.
The DS-160 form will be online on the website of the US embassy from Jan 19. For all NIV visa appointments starting Feb 1, applicants will need to fill out the DS-160 form, the US embassy said here Wednesday while announcing the introduction of the new form.
The new form, that leverages new technologies, is expected to cut processing delays as applications could be pre-processed and pre-screened before an applicants interview.
Applicants will continue to complete visa application forms online, as they did previously with the Electronic Visa Application Form, the embassy said.
The demand for American visas has been escalating in India over the years.
The four US consulates in the country had processed 725,000 visas in 2007 - a 58 percent increase from 2006.
India is among the top 10 countries sending visitors to the US.

One simple question to which I get different answers from different attorneys. I currently have US MS + 5 years of experience & working as Project Manager.. When I filed for EB-3 (in 2008) I had MS + 2.5 years of Experience and the role was Software Engineer
When changing from EB3 to EB2 (same Employer), experience with the same employer is considered only when the job duties are >50% different from the existing job.
Attorney 1 says: It should be >50% different from the EXISTING/CURRENT job that you are working on.. For e.g. if you were developer when filing EB-3 and now you are project Manager (which is more than 50% different in my case), you can't file EB-2 for a Project Manager
Attorney 2 says: It should be >50% different from the job description that was used while filing EB-3 labor certification. This lawyer says you can file, because PM is different than developer (which was filed for in EB3 labor)
Who's correct?

If you are not a citizen or if you do not have GC already, you might as well be an illegal.
These anti immigration activities dont really make a distinction between legal and illegal.

Ever heard of the adage - 'Too many cooks spoiled the broth'. If every one here starts creating their own 'Action Items' here, confusion will abound - which one is Official (IV sponsored) and which is is proposed by an individual member!
If you're interested in creating 'Action Items' of your own - join the State Chapters, share your ideas with other members and chapter leaders. If there's enough support for it in the group, chapter leaders will take it up with the Core. Once sanctioned by the core, it will become a real 'Action Item' on IV.
Lets follow this process, for the benefit of all and to avoid confusions.

H1B Visa Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
The United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) recently updated (http://www.ice.gov/doclib/sevis/pdf/ApprovedSchools.pdf) the list of Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) approved schools. The schools listed have all been certified to participate in the program.
The program allows foreign students interested in obtaining an education in the United States to complete a visa petition, pay the required fee, and attend a U.S. College or University.
Interested Foreign students: There is a process in obtaining a student visa, but it is not a difficult one. The student must first obtain Form I-20 from the U.S. College or University from which he/she intends to enroll, pay the required visa fee (Form I-901) and contact a local U.S. Consulate/Embassy to schedule an interview. The SEVP procedures differ among U.S. Consulates/Embassies; contact your U.S. Consulate/Embassy NOW to determine its particular procedure on applying for a visa before planning for the interview.
Interested Schools: There is a separate process to obtain F & M Certification. Authorized school officials must obtain and complete Form I-17. An overview of the SEVP Certification process can be found on the ICE website . If approved, the school will be certified and allowed to issue Form I-20 to qualifying foreign students.
If you need assistance or an explanation of the SEVP/student visa, please contact our office (http://www.mvplg.com/contact.htm) to schedule a consultation.

People are posting questions repeatedly without bothering to spend a few mintues searching previous threads for solutions.
No question is new on IV. Every question has already been answered multiple times, by several people and in great detail. Use the search feature and avoid redundancy. For example,
1. How to invoke Ac21?
2. H-1b vs. EAD
3. Impact of changing employers before 180 days
4. 485 before marriage
5. Everything else related to 485
If you have questions in any of the above areas, use the search feature. They have already been answered.

designserve,
Unfortunately, we cannot search by name. You may want to provide keywords used in your question so members can find your question. I have searched for all questions related to legal immigration in all categories and weighed my opinion one way or another.
Let's hope the IV core takes up this issue and writes up a carefully crafted question so we can all benefit from the resulting voting.
Now, go and have yourself some fun at a NYE party! I hope I am the only lame-o writing posts this NYE (my wife's sick and we're home).

PS: Why Science and Tech? How is this a S&T question? Aren't we all affected equally?

Hi,
My pending I-140 (filed an year ago...June 2006) was transferred from TSC to NSC on 09/05/2007, because my I-485 was filed with NSC. What date willl NSC use as received date to process my case...the date they received from TSC or the original receipt date?
Isn't it(140 filed at TSC almost an year ago) supposed to be certified by now?
TSC has been much faster at certifying 140s . Looks like USCIS is transferrring the 140s from TSC ... I can only pray for alll concurrent fileres that filed at TSC ...
140s at NSC are almost taking an year according to latest processing times.
Just curious did you have an RFE?

Everybody please post the names of attorneys who are easy / not easy, safe / not safe to deal with. People can post the names of the attorneys and a brief description (without specifics) about the problems / happy endings, they encountered. This could become an excellent review post for immigration lawyers. we could also maybe put 3 or 4 criteria to score them from 1 to 4. for eg:-
availability to answer questions
timely filing
acurate filing (with all documents)
current with legal provisions and latest changes
overall easiness to work with
cost
etc etc
Experts pls join in to fix the scoring pattern. We need to know the crooks and the good samaritarians out there.

I am a July 07 filer. Recently I sent in EAD renewal application and got it approved within a month. When I saw my EAD card the Sex category on it was F instead of M. Now what are my option. Should I reapply for EAD or continue working on it. I changed my employer last month and am currently working on EAD.
TIA
you need to contact USCIS at the phone number to contact in case of errors in EAD. This number is sent in mail along EAD card.

Applied for AP/EAD/485 in July 07.....I know that I can invoke AC21 after 180 days and change jobs.....My question is ,
1. If I travel to India before the 180 days and use the AP when I return, is it like invoking AC21 before 180 days ?
2. what are the consequences of using AP within 180 days after filing for 485 ?
3. Is AP and AC21 related ? [brother, sister , cousin :) ]
Thanks.

I am going to complete my 6th year on H-1b, this year end. My I 140 is cleared and I am going to file for 3 years extension. In the beginning of this year, for 3 months pay stubs are not run, due to some personal reasons. Will this affect my renewal of H1. We need to submit 3 pay stubs, before applying for extension. There will be a shortfall of YTD, when compared to actual. Please share your thoughts, who have clear understanding on these. thanking you.

DHS has publicized initiatives to enhance the E-verify program here. (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=70beadd907c67210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCR D&vgnextchannel=68439c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1 RCRD) The initiatives include:
(1) a new agreement with the Department of Justice that will streamline the adjudication process in cases of E-Verify misuse and discrimination;
(2) an informational telephone hotline for employees to provide a more timely, effective and seamless customer experience for workers seeking E-Verify information; and
(3) new training videos focusing on E-Verify procedures and policies, employee rights and employer responsibilities in English and Spanish.
The DHS's fact Sheet answers questions such as when and why E-Verify will share information with DOJ, what information it will share, what videos are available and where, how the employee hotline will work, what issues it will address, etc.
For more information on E-Verify, see my prior blog posts here (http://martinvisalaw.blogspot.com/search/label/e-verify).
