Nice work. Not completely centered, the water draws your eye all the way through the photo, the texture of the rocks makes the negative space some interest.
I like it.

U.S. Department of Labor has implemented a new integrated online system � known as the iCert Portal � through which employers can submit applications for permanent labor certification, labor condition applications (LCAs) and other applications for immigration-related DOL programs. In addition, the agency will introduce new editions of Form ETA-9089, the PERM labor certification application, and have already introduced Form ETA-9035, the labor condition application. iCert has already replaced the method of LCA filing for H-1B. The new iCert system begins to accept LCAs as of July 1, 2009. Employer and attorneys as the case may be, can still use the old LCA account but cannot submit new LCA. New LCA has to be filed from iCert.
Following are the new changes which has taken place:
- The new LCA requires writing the SOC (ONET/OES) code and the occupation title for the job.
- The new LCA has a section for basis for the visa classification supported by the application. There are the following categories:
a. New employment;
b. Continuation of previously approved employment without change with the same employer;
c. Change in previously approved employment;
d. New concurrent employment;
e. Change of employer;
f. Amended petition.
- One has to indicate the total number of H-1B/H-1B1 (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) non-immigrant workers.
- The new LCA also requires, in the employer information section, to indicate the Trade name/doing business as (DBA), if applicable, the old LCA does not have this requirement.
- In the new LCA, one is required to write NAICS code.
- There is a new section in the new LCA - Employer point of contact information, which requires to indicate the following: full contact�s name; contact�s job; contact�s address; contact�s telephone number; contact�s e-mail address.

does the employment letter have to be exactly in the same format as described in 'filing your 485 on your own thread' or can it be a simple letter stating the job title, salary, responsibilities etc?........is it ok to file 485 on my own eventhough the rest of the process was handled by attorney?.......for any immigration matters my company just forwards me to their lawyer.......and there is chance the lawyer might get pissed off if I file 485 on my own.......any ideas?

Standard Test include:
1. Blood test
2. TB skin test ( if this is +ve , then X-rays are done).
3. Immunization : Tetanus, MMR and vericela ( chickenPox)
If you donot have record, you can get these shots again.
If you remember ( or confirm with parents) that u had chickenpox in past , then they can confirm this by bloodtest and u will not need shot.
Hope this help.

My experience at IAD was same as explained above (June/06/2010) . .
I entered in AOS - EB3 - India.
During secondary session, I was asked lot of questions regarding my existing employer / earlier employer, also there were questions which were related to my 2006 employer too and tax filings of 2006 year too.
Overall with complete patience, managed to come into the country with approval after 4 hours.

You must be actually in H-1B status in order to use the H-1B portability provisions. This is what allows you to start with Company B once their H-1B petition is filed, rather than wait until the petition is approved. To use this, you need to get into H-1B status for Company A 9either through a COS petition or by entering the US in H-1B status. I don't recommend that latter option if you know that you will be changing employers as soon as you enter the US.
Alternatively, you could change from Co. A L-1 to Co. B H-1B, but you cannot start working for Co. B till the COS is approved.

A startup in the area filed for my PERM and it was approved in June 2010. Right now, they are in a mess about their tax returns and reauditing with their CPA and it seems that they will not be able to provide tax statements for this year end.
That will cause the PERM to expire without filing I140 since PERM expires in Dec. Is there anyway for us to file extension for the PERM ? More than 180 days...
I think they should still be able to file your I-140 in regular processing by not including the latest tax papers (include previous years). Since it takes a few months to process I-140 under regular filing, they will likely issue an RFE asking for tax documents. Hopefully, by then they are done with their audit and would be able to reply to the RFE with tax documents or provide explanation on why they cannot provide the requested documents but they can provide any other document that proves their ability to pay. That way, you won't lose your approved PERM.

You cannot claim a cousin on F1 status to be your dependent.
The most important point is F1 students have to file their own 1040NR and are Non resident aliens for tax purposes and cannot be dependents on Resident alients.
More over You cannot claim the tuition deduction for her because
(1) she showed proof of financial ability when joined the school.
(2) AFAIK, Tuition deduction can be made only for people either you/your spouse or your dependents
I know this because I paid tuition for my own sister and I was told that I cannot claim her as a dependent. Some CPA might say the contrary, but if you want the exact info call the IRS 800 829 1040

Thanks for the quick reply. I was reading that getting approved I129 means you are cap exempt for next 6 years. As the petition for visa was filed in 2007, so according to this cap exemption should be for next 6 years i.e. 2013. Would be really nice if you can clarify this.

All,
NetIP Bay Area has FINALLY put our link on their webpage
See http://www.netip-sfba.org/ They haven't capitalized the v in Voice etc, but it is a step in the right direction.

Nothing else has changed since i took up this position, same title, salary, location etc.,
Position, title, location and job description are the important variables as far as PERM is concerned. It is your manager's circumstance that changed and not your job situation, so your PERM should not be affected.

hi,
Congratulations to all...
Many thanks to IV core team for a very well co-ordinated effort.
Will the Visa numbers from fiscal year 2008 be used for alloting the numbers for those who are filing now ?
As per rule since those visa numbers are from future they cannot be alloted to those filing now.
Any predictions on how the October bulletin looks like ?

I am a resident physician on h1b visa which is expiring on 6-30-2010 . I am in process of applying for H1B extension for my fellowship. My wife is on H4 visa (expiring in 3-20-2013 since she got 5 yr multiple visa). Recently she visited Kuwait and on her re-entry she was given entry (on her I94) up to 3-15-2013 (up to 5 days prior to her visa expiration). Will she also need extension in this case along with my extension or can she stay in US till 2013 with out extension Thanks.

Just couple of days ago immigration-law.com reported about IV and its efforts to bring relief to high skilled community and 2 days later the site gets hacked. I wonder if anti-immigrants have anything to do with it ...... they may be really scared to IV :D
