Hunton Immigration and Nationality Law Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
On July 1, 2010, the Vital Statistics Office of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico began issuing new, more secure Puerto Rican birth certificates to US Citizens born in Puerto Rico. As of October 1, 2010, all certified copies of Puerto Rican birth certificates issued prior to July 1, 2010, will no longer be valid. Accordingly, the Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) issued a press release providing guidance to US employers with regard to the I-9 process. For new employees, employers may continue to accept all Puerto Rican birth certificates through September 30, 2010; after that date, only the new Puerto Rican birth certificates (issued on or after July 1, 2010) we be acceptable for I-9 purposes. Therefore, as of October 1, 2010, employers must pay close attention to the issuance date of Puerto Rican birth certificates presented for I-9 purposes.
For existing employees, there is no need to re-verify the employment authorization of employees who previously presented pre-July 1, 2010, Puerto Rican birth certificates. Federal Contractors subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulation E-Verify clause may continue to accept all Puerto Rican birth certificates prior to October 1, 2010, but beginning on that date, only the new Puerto Rican birth certificates issued on or after July 1, 2010, will be acceptable. Federal Contractors may not ask for the newer version during I-9 reverification of those individuals who previously presented the older version of the Puerto Rican birth certificates.
The USCIS memo can be found here (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=45e3285ca77fa210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCR D&vgnextchannel=68439c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1 RCRD).

Gifts & Items Sent to the White House
Items sent to the White House often experience a significant delivery delay and can be irreparably harmed due to the security screening process. Therefore, please do not send items of personal importance, such as family photographs, because items may be unable to be returned. We also request that gifts of a consumable nature, such as food, flowers, and other perishable items, not be sent to the White House due to the security screening process. While the President and Mrs. Bush and Vice President and Mrs. Cheney appreciate your thoughtfulness, they request that you look instead to your local community for opportunities to assist your neighbors in need.

Hi,
My current situation is as below
I -797 and I-94 expiry date: 10 Jun 2011
Passport expiry : 28 Oct 2011
I am filing for H1 extension through my company immigration cell. However, they informed me that my passport had to be renewed before filing the extension !! else the attached I-94 in the extended I 797 will have the expiry date only till my passport expiry :confused:
In that case, if they had to wait for my renewed passport to arrive (which can take longer) to file the extension and my I-94 might expire before that.
Can someone please provide some advice if that's the case?

There are two types of "scholarships": (i) taxable, and (ii) non-taxable. If the scholarship is non-taxable, which implies that it requires no work to "earn" it and it is not used for room-and-board and other living expenses, then you may be able to have that even while on H4.

Hi, my I94 expires on Nov 28th and my current employer is having issues in applying for transfer (they applied but without proper documents and it is still pending). I know I can continue to work based on the extension receipt they have even after Nov 28th.
I have some questions in the scenario that this application of extension (old employer) is denied after Nov 28th say on Dec 10th:
1) If a new employer applies for H1b transfer before Nov 28th and I get a rejection on Dec10th (with old one), can I immediately switch to the new employer (based on their transfer receipt) and continue work with the new one?
2) If the new employer is unable to apply before Nov28th (with holidays coming up), but say applies on Dec5th. Now if I get a rejection with old employer on Dec10th, can I switch to new employer on Dec10th and continue working (even though they applied for transfer after my I94 expiration but while my stay was legal) ?
Appreciate your responses at this crucial time.

My wife last time entered to US with H4 in June 2010. Then she applied for F1 status and got approved in Nov 2010.
H4 visa stamping Expires on Feb 20111.
She is planning to go India by Jan 2011 for 2 weeks. She is planning to come before Visa expires.
Is it possible to enter US with old H4 visa stamping?
Do we really need to stamp visa with F1?

I always wonder these ARAVAS deserve GC?
Because where ever they will make lot of fuss there and cause so many troubles to hosting country...
Srilanka they made a beautiful country as almost ash because of their perverted intensions..And Singapore they will never go with country's best interests...and Malaysia....
And even in India see the support to LTTE (Openly)
Also all most all these ARAVAs are blue collar cheap labor, I don�t know how a considerable number of Tamils getting h1b
Actually USCIS needs to think about them to avoid future problems...
Looks like already two dick less Basterds visited this (who left -ve rep for me)

I140 Mailed Date : 08/01/2006
I485 Mailed Date : 07/23/2006
How is this possible?
I was jsut curious.
It is possible. There is a relatively unknown technique called TT (abbreviation for Time Travel) which is also relatively related to relativity. When applied correctly, it is more effective than PD recapturing and labor substitution. That's how I got my green. If you like to know more, PM me and we can discuss my consultation fees and then see if TT is right for you.

Send your petition to USCIS Ombudsman. This is a classic case of USCIS incompetence. They have all the documents and yet they pester you to provide the details.

No it is not but the chances of getting a stamp is higher or at least it use to me.
I remember going through the same thing few years back but then economy was not as bad it is today. Always remember the guy's job at US Embassies is to stop people from coming or act like a gate keeper.
Just carry all your supporting documents like:
Tax returns
Offer letter
Letter from the company stating your continuous employment
Pay stubs
Bank statemen
ts and any assets you might have in the US (property, etc.)
Good luck

Hi
I just came across the News about Donations by Indian Legal Immigrant to the US hospital. Link is given below
timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/822912.cms?headline=NRI~donates~$30~million~to~US~ hospital (http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/822912.cms?headline=NRI~donates~$30~million~to~US~ hospital)"]
I am sure there are several other legal immigrants donations to the US hospitals, Colleges and Universities etc.
I am sure that if we can link those all in one thread and later on can be compiled by IV to make strong point that Legal immigrant apart from generating lots of jobs and economical growth for US also contribute generously to various progressive causes, by the wealth that they make because of their creative mind and skills.
On other hand there is a debate about undocumented workers relying on the US tax payers resources.

I came to US on B2 10-year multiple visa, my I-94 is going to expire in a few weeks (first time extension approved ). My husband�s citizenship application has been pending for the past 10 months, it is in internal security check , so don't know how long it will take to clear.
What are the consequences if I over stay on my B1 visa for about 150 days, during which I apply for my I-130 and then go back to my home country and go for the consulor processing. Is this can be done? I got different opinions so confused. Would it impact my consular interview?
The hope is my husband�s citizenship would be approved before that and I might never have to leave the US.
Thanks in advance.

I guess as long as your PD is before july 31, you can apply,
PD is the date labor was applied and not approved. Hence Any approvals from Aug 1 to aug 16 should be fine too...
