I got RFE through attorney. It is asking following details
1. Emloyment verification letter with present and intended permanent employer
2. Last two months pay slips
3. "Although your I 140 petitioner indicated in your initial I485 filing that you were employed by company A at that time, your Form G325 indicated that you were employed by company B and you were authorized by B at that time, please explain discrepancy"
I am bit worried about question 3. I worked for company A and labor, I140 applied when I was with A.
But during I485 filing I was with company B and in G325 I mentioned that.
It looks like company A by mistake mentioned that I was still with them.
I called my attorney he said its upto me decide which company I should work for.
But I am not sure company A provides an employment letter for me because I am working for comapny B now.
If B provides employment letter since it is >180 days since I 485 applied, will there be any issues?
Please give your opinions...

There are 2 separate issues here..
1. Do you HAVE OR NOT a job with this middle vendor, from your description below seems like your prior employer waived Non-Compete part of your employment agreement to you and you just quit that position?
2. Technically you are still on the payroll of your employer?? He's sorta right, if you are on OPT, he's not legally bound to inform INS of the termination, and terminating employment does not negate the 12 mo. non-compete you signed on.
I agree with other commentors here, you should move on. In your case, moving on would need,
1. Make sure you got paid for actual time you were on the contract.
2. If you haven't already DO NOT QUIT THE JOB under threat of law-suit. In fact Non-Compete viability depends on state of employment. In CA it's impossible to enforce. Even if he sues, there better than 50/50 chance you will win due to "undue duress" clause that negates it.
3. Threaten him that you will go after him and his H1bs. Get a lawyer (spend 500$) and send him official letter. Since you are in CA and he's in NJ, even more troublesome for him is to attend small claims court dates.. go to local court and ask for jurisdiction there.. make sure to include name of OWNER in the law-suit,
Basiically don't be scared, don't get mad, get even..
Hello Everyone,
Hi I am a student in United States and I was on Optional Practical Training from Jan 2008
to Dec 2008. As I finished my OPT in Dec 2008 I joined again in New course for M.S in soft. Eng.
In the month of November I got a job in California through an employer, who is based in New Jersey. As I got a job the employer asked me to sign a contract which states that I will be paid 60,000 per year and I shouldn't work with his clients for 1 year after the agreement is terminated.
As the project was only for 40 days I finished it successfully and I my employer couldnt find me another job till now. So I decided to work on my own when I got an opportunity with the previously worked vendor, when my employer came to know about this he has threatened me to sue me. Then I retrieved from the opportunity but now even my employer doesnt pay me anything. It is been 4 months, he hasn't paid me anything , even he hasnt provided me any insurance.
I asked my employer couple of times to terminate my agreement otherwise I would go to Department of Labor and claim my wages but he downplays that by saying I am not on H1B so I will not be paid unless I am working with Client. But the agreement didn't say anything like that.
I have even asked him to run the payroll where I worked .I.e in California but he ran it in New Jersey. When I pointed this to him he said the payroll will be run at the residing state if the employee works more than 6 months.
We had an argument about this but he never replies to my emails he only calls me and says whatever he wants to say but when I ask him to put whatever he has said to me on phone in an email he doesnt reply at all.
And to mention, he doesnt have any documents of mine. I even didnt fill any I9 form, what ever he has is the only agreement that I signed and social security number that I emailed him to run my pay roll.
After the argument I even requested him to send my original agreement signed by two parties. I only had the agreement signed by me, he even didnt send me the agreement with his sign on it even after repeated requests.
Now he doesnt even care to answer my calls or emails. I am really tensed. I am getting opportunities from vendor that I worked with but I am afraid he would sue me. Please help me What to do. I am really really frustrated, tensed and I can't express how I feel right now.
I want to get out of the contract and work with the vendor if Possible.
Please explain me how can I tackle this problem?
I would be really very very thankful to you.
Thanks,
Uday

I like your optimistic attitude but unfortunately I don�t share it because of past and current behavior of USCIS, like for instance how they willfully disregarded the 180 day name check memo. Do you really believe them when they say name check will be cleared in 2009, just like the current name check memo the fbi name check clearance will be thrown in a dustbin. If by a miracle name check is solved they will come up with some other check delay for example IBIS name check delay. the bottom line is if there is a will there will be a way, USCIS has no will what so ever to help us. Good luck to everyone but just build a reservoir of patience because if you have hope on USCIS you will pay dearly.
USCIS is trying to make EB2 all countries Current sometime during FY 2009. Of course "a few" 2004, 2005 cases will still be pending past Oct08 but hopefully not too many.
If EB1 and EB2 are shown as current soon, then the DOS can transfer the so-called "spillover" into EB3 ROW, then into EB3 IN & CH.
Based on available numbers, EB3 India / China will see rapid movement in dates April 09 Visa Bulletin onwards.
What will happen during 2009 in all likely hood is the following,
Almost all EB1 spillover will go to EB3. (~ 25k)
Some of EB1 and all of EB2 spillover will go to EB2 IN/CH (~ 10k to 15k)
In 2009, there will be no more Name Check delays - therefore expect rapid EB3 approvals after April 09.

Having 3 years EAD/AP and ability to refile AOS (in the worst case) is the best workable solution to an economic turndown and lay-off. Having a recapture done will also help many
IV already has this as part of the letters campaign. Everyone worried about recession, lay-off etc. must support IV campaign with full vigor.

We need experts advice in the following matter.
Here is my situation, I have entered US on H-4 and after sometime I have applied for H1(Change of status) through a consulting company. I have worked for this company for 3 months.
When I went for H1 stamping,visa officer said that my case need to go through Administrative processing . I came back on H-4.
We have applied for 485 (through my spouse) and got EAD and AP.I have started working on my EAD. Recently we have received a mail from the consulate saying my H1 was denied and there was a note saying
"section 212 (a) (6) (c) which prohibits unlawful misrepresentation. See form DSL-851 for further details . ". (Not sure what triggered this?). I couldn't find this form anywhere, what is this form?
We have sent an email to US consulate abroad, asking for reasons and future steps, and we have received a response saying
"your case has been fowarded to the USCIS for a final determination. As for your H-4 visa, a decision may not be taken until the USCIS makes a final determination in your case by the USCIS."
Can you advice us what to do next?
1. Will it be possible to withdraw the H1-B application from USCIS?
2. Approximately how long it may take to get a final decision?
3. Is it better to contact USCIS about the case?
4. Will there be any impact of this on my 485 application? or on any future immigration processes?
5. Will there be any problem while entering or leaving the country?
6. Does USCIS notify us about the final decision?
7. Is it better to seek help from Senator in this matter to know what is the decision on our case?
Please advice on this matter as we have travel plans next month.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Lets get some media attention on how the GCs are wasted and how we suffer for years.
Let the public know how much injustice the people from backlogged countries are facing..
We don't contribute less. We work no less than others ..but yet we are discriminated.
I wonder why they don't have 7% cap on H1B . And all this stupid media says people from ...... are stealing jobs and ....... overstay:mad:

Please join your state chapters and participate in this all important action item.
Take a moment to think about this:
If the bills don't pass before the end of this fiscal year, then we are stuck for one more year (wishing and hoping) before any provisions pass and take effect in Oct 2009. Even if there are any provisions that take effect in Oct 2009, we have to consider the delays due to USCIS backlogs (imagine what CIR will do) and adjudication time. There is really no fun in this lifestyle of uncertainty. This is our chance to make it happen for us. Let each one of us play a key role in deciding our own future. Let's do it.

You said you live in NJ, you supposed to have sent you EAD renewal documents to Vermont Service Center as per the USCIS link provided below:

What I understood from my lawyer is to send the renewal documents to address at the bottom of I-485 notice. I may have understood wrong.

Hello Kiran,
:) Thank you! Yes, I personally have always been a supporter of FIFO for permanent residency and I empathize with all who are waiting much much longer than me. That's why I said that I wish there are more IOs like the one who is working on my case.
Good luck to all of us and let's keep IV strong!
