I have GC for about a month now. I plan on taking up Corp-to-Corp, Independent, 1099 and W2 contracts. For corp-to-corp contracts I would like to incorporate a company if I can save on taxes over the 1099 contracts. I am also
in the process of engaging a CPA. Do you advise incorpating a LLC or S-Corp or a C-corp ?

Hi,
Well, Bush has delivered his address on the immigration subject. Unless I am missing something, not a word was said about the Legal Immigration or the H1Bs. All the focus was on the illegal immigrants and the border enforcement.
Does that mean that the Legal ones like us are in the backburner? Would the Senate and the house focus only on the illegals and give them the path to citizenship, leaving those who played by the rules, in the lurch? What kind of justice is this in the "Land of Justice"?
I hope the senators and the representatives are sensible and leave the provisions for the EBs in the proposed bill, alone.
Hoping for the best.

Thanks for sharing!
my attorney said When you interfile, even if ur previous PD is current, you cannot file 140+485 together.. you have to first file the 140 requesting the previous PD be ported and then once that is approved..file you 485..!!
>> I have both the I-140's now, the EB2 and the Eb3. So this is not a case of filing I-140 together with I-485. Qn is can the underlying I-485 EB3 pending adjudication be matched up with the new I-140 EB2 which has the older EB3 PD? If not, is filing a new I-485 to follow on the new EB2 I-140 the only option? Currently EB3 India is Unavailable and EB2 India PD is Jun 06. My new EB2 PD is Nov 02.
but he said....if ur PD is current you can take a chance and file both 140(requesting porting)+485 ..but then the chances of 485 being sent back are high..
>> ok, thanks.
Whew, just when you think this darn thing will be over ... :D

A couple more from the job finish today. I liked the backdrop - looks like ricepaper, which really pleased the Japanese-born client. This was taken vertically. I hung the wreath with a thread and then cloned it out :) I wasn't really happy with the backdrop lighting in the second one. Guess I need to invest in some lights. I used natural light from the right and a reflector card on the left of the subject.

All the written agreements are valid in most of the states. but you can argue on the terms of agreement. He cannot ask her to stay in the company for 4 years. If she works in that company for 1 year, her employer should recover all the money he spent on her.
The best way is to work there for 1 or 2 years and walk out without paying anything. Or just pay the filing fee and get out right away.
You are right Chris, last year few folks left the company and the company downsized as well. The only way to retain ppl and make them sweat is to hire H1's with the promise of GC who will be obliged to work.

A bunch of suits on a Saturday afternoon in downtown San Jose will sure look strange. Silicon Valley dress code is not the same as New York, or LA for that matter. Slacks and a shirt (maybe a tie) seem to do it even at venture capitalist meetings with company founders.

This and the new rumor that two senators were influencing USCIS clearly implies that the whole mess is a result of the CIR bill.
I can recall watching c-span a few days before the july bulletin came out. He said something on these lines "If we have 400-500,000 legal immigrants in the backlog for the past 4-5 years, how do you think we will able to provide GC to 11 million illegal immigrants?"
A few days after this, the July visa bulletin is released. CIR dies on June 26th or 27th and the two senators(whoever they are) influenced USCIS to "use up" all the numbers. THe more you read into this mess, it becomes clear that CIR was the root cause for the roller coaster ride of emotions.
This stuff is not a revelation but it confirms our suspicion all along that this was a political drama. I dont think this had anything to do with the fee increase.
I hope 60 minutes covers this scandal. If anyone has contacted 60 minutes, can you please let us know their email address?

Yes, medical forms been changed. Please refer USCIS site for correct form. It is valid for one year but form should be correct.
Here are the details:
http://immigration-law.com/
07/13/2008: USCIS Changes Old Medical Form, I-693, Invalid Date from 07/14/2008 to 08/01/2008
� Medical form which the USCIS designated civil surgeon is required to use was initially revised on 04/08/2008, followed by the USCIS announcement that any I-693 form version earlier than 04/08/2008 should not be used by the civil surgens from May 1, 2008. In the middle of June, the USCIS released again new version form dated 06/05/2008 and announced that the old version other than 06/05/2008 should not be used effective 07/14/2008. July 14, 2008 is tomorrow. However, without a news release, the USCIS form site extended invalid date of forms earlier than 06/05/2008 to 08/01/2008. Please now note that "Previous editions will be accepted only for medical exams conducted before August 1, 2008. Medical exams conducted on or after August 1, 2008, require use of the 06/05/08 edition," according to the form site instruction.
� There was a confusion in June 2008 on the validity of older version form I-9 because the USCIS form site instructed that the older version was not acceptable from certain date. In Vancouver, the USCIS authority confirmed that the form instruction was an error and the USCIS form instruction has since been corrected. It will help tremendously if the USCIS releases an announcement that the current I-693 form instruction is indeed correct and the civil surgeons can use the I-693 forms which are older than 06/05/2008 version can still be used. In the meantime, the civil surgeons and the immigrants should check on the date of the medical examination with the I-693 form site to protect themselves from any changes. The form site indicates that the information was updated on June 26, 2008. One wonders whether the civil surgeons may be better off to start using the 06/05/2008 version form from even now just to avoid any confusion in the future. For the new form instruction as of today, please click here.
� There was a report one time that the USCIS was experiencing a problem in notifying all the USCIS certified civil surgeons on the form changes by email or other means because some civil surgeons did not have email addresses or proper means to receive such notices quickly. When the 2008 Tuberculosis Technical Instructions for Civil Surgeons was implemented by the Center for Disease Control and Prevension of HHS in such a notice on May 1, 2008, it could have been practically impossible for the USCIS to notify such medical form changes timely to every single USCIS certified civil surgeons. Well, doctors, you now have until August 1, 2008 to comply with the new medical form!
� This change can be important that because of the EB-2 visa number progression for the Chinese and Indians, a large number of these foreign professionals must have already scheduled or even completed a medical examination for themselves and their family members using the older versions. Under the new instruction, these medical report should be valid and filed with the I-485 coming August 2008. However, those who schedule their 485 medical examination on or after August 1, 2008 should make it sure that the doctor uses the new version dated 06/05/2008.

I got a Multiple Entry Stamp.. ( last week of jan 2008)
The consulate officer who interviewed me did mention that they will try to get the passport back to me next day by 3 pm but there are chances that it might take a few days...
The next day I went to pick up my passport at 3 and it was not ready..The security guy said -> "because of the new system, the stamping is taking a while. But most of the guys have got it the next day by 5 pm.. the worst case was an H1 candidate who had to comeback after 2 days for his passport...But that was the only blip ..."
I would suggest booking ur tickets as if you were to get the passport the next day, but also buy the 52$ insurance (if you buy it on Orbitz) so that you can easily cancel and re-book it...
Also I read in several posts about who could go to halifax for stamping. Its true that only revalidation candidates should schedule but
It does not matter what employer name is printed on your existing expired VISA . You just need an existing H1 approval ( stamped) which is being extended. In my case I had only an expired stamp from my first company but I had transferred the H1 Visa to 2 employers since then without their stamp.
So this stamping was for my 3rd employer.

Yes, you can move to H4 and then to H1-B as long as that H1-B is filed within 12 months. Otherwise, your application will be subject to 65K cap limit
There's no such strings attached. You can convert from H4 to H1B whenever you want without the quota applying to you, as long as you
1.> Haven't spent a year outside the US, or
2.> Have your I-140 approved, in which case (1) won't apply.

with this type of money and job, you should have filed for EB2.. why EB3
At the time i was 2 semesters away from my Masters plus the mess my previous attorney had caused, my new attorney felt comfortable filing under EB3 because he felt i would have problems at the I-140 stage if i did not compete my Masters by that time.
In 2001 my attorney expected to have my GC by 2003 the latest and he was not counting on this mess with DBEC.
Hope all of us are through with this nightmare by end of 2007.

Thanks arnet ,
As you mentioned i kept checking the chennai consulate, and it opened up like a blessing in disguise, with slots again and i was able to get my dates .Only problem was it forced me to cancel my earlier appointment and redo all the application again .That was because i had booked an appointment with Mumbai consulate in distress of not finding any with chennai .

I found an interesting article on AC21 portability in cyrusmetha.com
Here is the portion of the article appeared on May 27, 2005
about PORTABILITY DURING ADJUSTMENT OF STATUS
-----------
Interestingly, the memo also advises that although a difference in the wage offer on the approved labor certification or I-140 and the new employment cannot be used as a basis of denial, a substantial discrepancy between the previous and the new wage may be taken into consideration as a factor in determining if the new employment is �same or similar.� It is possible, however, for one to work in a �same or similar� occupation even if there is a substantial discrepancy in the wage. A CEO of a Fortune 100 corporation may be paid several million of dollars each year. The CEO of a start-up could make much less, say $50,000 per annum. One should be able to successfully argue that the CEO of a start-up is in a �same or similar� job to the CEO of a Fortune 100 corporation.
