You must be filing under (c)(9). That is AOS pending.
I feel that your current status is "Entered into USA using H1B Visa". I needed to e-file for my wife and mentioned "SPOUSE/CHILD OF H-1 THRU H-3" for that.
Since no one has answered your question, I am just providing information, what I have done. It may not be accurate. I hope no one puts "RED" marks for this. RED marks have become pretty common for providing any suggestion.

Thanks for quick reply. I know that company can rent out but I am just betting for 1 year. That would give me some boost to pay part of mortgage. Later I would even manage on my own.

Hi all,
Between this thread and the main chapter thread, we have now accumulated a handful of members, looks like we are all set to be an active chapter!
couple of things:
1. IV IL chapter has invited us to their conference call, please check the thread called "Members in MN" under the IV agenda forum, if anyone can participate and report back here it would be great.
2. Conference Call: Anyone have dates or times in mind? btw pappu, question for you: does iv have a way of facilitating these calls?
Looking forward to hearing from you all, together we will surely achieve our objectives...

My H1-B extension was filed on June 3 2010 requesting for additional 3 years (after the 1st 6 yrs). My labor and I-140 were also approved. The case has been pending since then. It has been more than 5 months now. I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing similar delays? My I-797 has expired in September and I'm still working on the basis of the pending application.
Thanks in advance.

only members who have not yet contributed use this thread to tell others why you have not made a decision on contribution. Again contribution to IV is not mandatory.
We have 20K members and 1-2k contributors. So this thread should see at least 15k members with their views on IV.
Below are some posts you could use. This will help.
1. I dont want to contribute.
2. I want to contribute but not now, may be later.
3. I am planning to contribute.
4. How to contribute, I dont know.
5. I will contrubute right now.
etc etc.
I know, not even a single response will be posted to this thread. :)

You can simply use the tuition fees deduction on the front of the 1040 return. It will reduce your adjusted gross income. I have been using it for deducting my sons tuition for three years.
Yes, but it can only reduce your taxable income upto $4000. For those who are spending larger amounts towards education in graduate studies lifetime credit in my opinion is better option.

Thanks a lot. This is more in depth and I am not understood how these things work.
So if I have MS+ 0 then I think I have to post my ad for JobZone 5. In that case, my SVP will be 7 because MS = 4 yrs and 0 expr = nothing. So i will not exceed SVP 7.
So is the combination,
JobZone 5 with an SVP 7 will work for MS+0.
Also for a software developer or related work, i don't see JobZone5. What kind of positions suit for JobZone 5 in software developers world ?
Anybody know about these things ? please drop in your thoughts
Thanks

Aah_GC: Lawyer might not have received it from USCIS otherwise irrational would not be writing it here :) Many who filed during July 07 fiasco have not received the 485 receipt notices (lost in mail) from USCIS.
irrational: For EAD renewal, you can use your biometric notice as a proof of filing for I-485 to extend EAD and you make sure give correct A# on the form , with this USCIS should be able to pull your records. Also write a cover letter stating that you have not received the 485 receipt notice from USCIS, thats it. Nothing to worry, Go ahead and file without 485 receipt notice copy.
Sure, guess I was a bit irrational :)!

Thank you "boreal" for the answer.
Another question.
If I wait until my new I140 got approved through new employer and then switch. Now a days because of PERM process and premium processing for I140, it may be approved within two months.
Then even if the old employer withdraws 140, does it effect the priority date of already approved 140?
Do any one has answer for this? Please respond

Non - English speaking or not isn't it the responsibility of the driver of the vehicle to drive following the rules of the Road. Why make a U-turn where it is not allowed. Why turn when it is written NO turn on Red. Is it the fault of the sign that you cannot read English.
US is an English speaking nation although people from all parts of the word live here. We have to abide by the common language which is English and not Spanish. The DMV cannot post sign in hundreds of languages that different people speak.
If the driver violated the law he must be given a ticket unless it is his first offence when a warning would be sufficient. Rules are meant to be followed.

Hey Dontcareanymore,
You are right.
For other folks, here is the summary -
1) Got H1B visa stamp valid from August 2007 till August 2010.
2) Started working from October 2007 and Was laid off in November 2007.
3) Joined a consultant (IT) in December 2007. Got the training but never pursued any job as did not like the IT field.
4) Found another job in my field (chemical engineering), filed for H1B (premium processing). Got approved without change of status in March 2008 (I-797B) .
6) Attorney said that i have an almost brand new H1B visa so don't have to get a new visa but have to bring myself back into status by re-entering into US. Did that in April 2008. Total number of out of status days = 134. Started working for this employer from April till 30 September 2008.
7) Found another job. Changed the job. Got the I-797A (with I-94). Working with them since October 2008. This new petition is valid from 1 October 2008 till 30 September 2011.
8) Came to New Delhi for visa stamping on 25th Feb 2010. Had almost 20 to 30 minutes long interview.
9) First VO asked normal questions such was job duties, salary, last 3 pay stub, W2 form etc.
10) Then VO found out from the form DS 160 that i have checked on 'out of status' checkbox. She asked what happened. I explained it.
11) She went to consult someone else. Came back and gave me back all the documents and asked that someone will call me on another counter.
12) Another lady called me on different counter after 30 minutes. She sounded friendly and gave me a 221 g form (pink). She told me that it will take 6 to 8 weeks to finish the admin processing.
13) 221 g form had questions like resume, thesis, publication, last 5 travels in US etc.
14) I asked the lady if i can go back on my current valid visa and new I-797A. She went to consult with someone else and said that yes i can go back if i want to and the embassy will shoot me an email when they need the passport for visa stamping.
15) With my best judgment, I left India for US on 3rd March 2010. At POE (Chicago), forwarded my passport (work visa valid till August 2010) with the I-797 A (valid till September 2011). CBP officer gave me the I-94 valid till September 2011.
16) On 16th March 2010, got an email from embassy that they need my passport.
17) I asked if they have received the clearance. They sent me back the automated message that they need my passport.
18) Called DOS to know the status. They said that they can only see on their system the information submitted by the embassy and not beyond that. And the latest information embassy submitted was that they need my passport. The also mentioned that they don't have any idea why the embassy needs my passport. And 221 g is not cleared yet.
19) With best of my abilities, made a decision to go back to India and submit the passport to vfs.
20) Came to India on 29th March 2010 (early AM) and submitted the passport on the same day.
21) Passport was sent back to me on 1st April 2010 with the visa stamped.
22) The new Visa expiration date is 29th March 2012 while I-797A expiration date is September 2011. Why is it so i do not know.
23) Checked the status on the New Delhi embassy website for 221g and it still says that the case is pending though i have received the visa stamp. It indicates that embassy folks do not update the case status report for 221 g.
Please feel free to ask any question.

Anu has been out sick and will not be doing verification for next couple of months. Myself and other team members will handle this task in our spare time from other IV work and there could be delays. However we will try to have the delay only for 15 days at the most.

This is my Attorney’s take on “same or similar job”:
Ultimately for the adjustment of status to be approved, you have to have a new position in the "same or similar occupational classification" as the position which is the subject of the labor certification application. This does not mean it has to be the same job or the same job duties but, as indicated, in the same general field. As long as you obtain such a position prior to your adjustment of status being finalized, then there should be no problem.
I also asked him about Location and Salary requirements. This what he said…
Location does not matter and even salary does not matter, as long as it does not seem to evidence a totally different type of position.
So, I wouldn’t worry about the "same or similar" crap and wait for several years. If some attracting offer comes up your way, go for it.

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).
