Hi Everyone,
I am on H1B with Labor approved about 2.8 years ago and I-140 approved for over a year ago.
I am July2007 fiasco filer of Indian origin.....in US for a some 13 years and I am Canadian citizen.
I have almost 2.5 years of H1B still left from my 3 year H1B extension.
I had EAD before but never used it, so my employer has not renewed it.
I am currently working on H1B.
I understand I am not allowed to work in my own business while on H1B, but I can have profit or loss from it......so it doesn't make sense to start a consulting business while on H1B in my opinion (correct me if I m wrong btw).
Starting a Consulting Business on EAD:
Now I want to start a consulting business in the same/similar field of my current job for which my greencard was applied and is still pending.
Please help me with the following:
Q1: Can I start the this consulting business while on EAD? Is LLC the best option?
Q2: Will it be then job portability from my current job to this new job in my company using AC21?
Q3: What conditions do I need to fulfill for working in my own company to keep my greencard alive?
Q4: What evidence do I need to keep handy to show USCIS if asked?
Q5: Am I supposed to inform USCIS when I do this job chnage?
Q6: Are there any minimum revenue requirements or do I have to pay myself same or more salary than my current job?
Q7: What if my business does not take off quickly and I can not pay myself same salary like my current job?
Q8: Can I apply EAD myself or I need my current employer to do so? I have the old expired EAD card that I never used.
Q9: I also don't have my job description from my labor certification. Is there a way for me to get it directly from USCIS?
Please advise. I thank you very much to help me out with this.....I know these are quite a few questions but I really need your help.
Thank you for your time and help.
Regards,

Dear DC/MD/VA Members:
We have come to a point where lot of friends would be joining us. I would encourage all of DC/MD/VA members to open their houses to host or support financially or donate miles or do anything that would minimize the expenses for our fellow friends and make them welcome.
More than that I would like to emphasize that we need to participate in large numbers volunteering and make this event a grand success.
@All IV Members:
If you need any assistance please pm me or reply to this thread and we will answer your questions to assist you best.
Cheers,

Today I had an Infopass Appointment at 10 am. The IO told me, my NC is pending that's why I did not get FP.He told me to wait till July (ie is one yr from the date of applying)then open SR.
Got the same exact nonsense at my infopass as well.
With the new 180 day NC rule, does it even matter?
Bunch of bafoons are appointed as so called IIOs there..

In order to do this, she will have to leave the country and apply for a H-1b consular processing. Get a new visa and come back into the county on H-1. She cannot file for a change of status to H-1 from AOS.
Thanks for the response, but does that means anybody who is on EAD cannot apply for H1B while in US ?

My parents are planning to go for a visa interview. What is difference between me inviting them to visit me versus they applying as tourists. I understand that if they apply as tourists they need to provide documents showing that they can support themselves.
Will coming as a tourist diminish the possibility of getting 10 year multiple entry visa. Any thoughts on this issue is much appreciated.

A friend of mine told me that we do not have to pay Social Security Tax while working on EAD. Does anybody know if this is true ?
That would be a huge plus in case its true.
Your friend may have confused 485 based EAD with F1 OPT based EAD. On F1, you do not pay SS or Medicare. On AOS based EAD, you do need to pay SS/Medicare taxes.

When you reach NSC or TSC, you talk to an IO. Who really is an IO? Are they first line of customer service at the centers? They then send requests etc to officers handling your cases?
I am trying to understand the relationship between the Customer Service agents, IOs and the case workers.

1. March 31 , 2008 - I am on H4 with I-94=12345..
2. June 27,2008 - H1 got approved with i-94=12345.. valid from 10/1/2008-9/23/2011.
3. Sep 10, 2008 - I enter US on h4 with i-94=abcdef.....
4. Oct 1 , 2008 - Ideally (as confirmed by USCIS, immigration lawyer) , I-94=12345.. should have been in system (become active) and status changed to H1.
But it didn't happen and I-94=abcdef... is active.
Questions:
1. What is my status from Oct 1, 2008 - Dec 31, 2008? H1 or H4.
Since my h1 status was not in system, i didn't get any SSN & hence no paystubs.
2. What is the safest & quickest way to get my h1 status active in system..
a) Stamping in Canada - Quickest for me. Is it safe ?
b) Get status changed without getting out of country? - But how?
c) Stamping from Home country? -- Last option.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
AG

Even though your end client is not the direct client for your employer, they might have used the laguage in the non-compete which reflects the scenario. So check your non-compete document.
May be the final verdict is in favour, you need to take so much of pain in the whole processes. If you prepare for these upfront you can go a head and fight. I had seen couple of instances in the NY, with my friends, where non-compete became VOID.

I hope you know how to search for info in Google. Just search it and do your basic research and then you can come back and ask question.
Then the answers here would make a lot more sense.
Toooo funny.
If you are in America ask your company HR or your company Attorney and then come back with questions.

They will take your I-94 at the airport in washington where you will board your flight....
In my experience my previous I-94 was issued to me on AP for one year when I had come in......they did not bother with the I-94 on my H1B.
Anyways since yours is an international flight the agent at the counter will take care of whichever they want.....just present them with both. Mostly they do not bother with the one in I-797 notice.

I am in a confused situation, any thoughts / guidelines are greatly appreciated..
The question is : If my h1 is with company A and my GC is applied for future employment by company B, can I use EAD to take up full time employment with company C (or Self) ?
The full story is : The client company, I am working with is processing my GC for future employment. 485 was applied and I received EAD. It has come up that the current employer has an agreement with the client that , the client should not employ any of their employees for 1 yr after the termination. So, I need to quit the current employment, work else where for a year and then join the GC sponsering company.The I140 will not be revoked.
Since I am not currently working for GC sponsring company, does any of the AC21 issues matter ?
Thanks in advance
yes you can take up employment with C. If you get an RFE at any point within the next 180 days make sure B can give you an employment offer letter. post 180 days you can invoke AC-21 if you want and use C as your GC-Sponsoring employer.

I believe so....if your LC is approved in August, then your PD is August. It is not qualified under July VB.
Not True. PD is your labor filing date not approval date. I think, you should be able to apply if your PD falls on or before July 2007. Please consult with your attorney. They can check with USCIS through AILA liason. Thanks -

Alien registration number is found either on I-140 receipt/approval on top of beneficiary's name. If you're not sure, just leave it blank or put N/A. This is different from I-94 number.
concur it is the I-140 A# number if you have the approved I-140, otherwise check with your employer if they have the I-140, or leave it blank if your I-140 is approved.
