My father in law is a US citizen.He went to India in january 2009.There one of his relative register a false case against him and the Punjab police took away his passport from him.Then the case started in the court.His passport is in the hands of police till now.The judge is just giving him dates.how can he get his passport back? He is still in India.
I checked with Rajiv. He said that a passport is ultimately the property of the issuing government. Punjab police will probably not be able to hold the passport beyond a certain time. We do not practice laws of India (US only). They need to discuss this with local counsel.
I have lived in the United States for over 15 years. I was 8 years old when my parents brought me to this country. I don't blame them since they only thought of giving us a better life than what they had in Mexico. Through the years, I have acquired great knowledge thanks to the schools of this great country. In May 2004, I graduated from Southern Polytechnic State University with a 3.66 GPA. However, due to these laws I have not been able to find a job, where I can put my skills to work.
Thanks Diane for great work for my GC processing. I am also grateful to Leila and Suman to help me from time to time. The services of law offices of Rajiv Khanna is just great for GC cases.
Its amazing that such a big firm and so many clients, still I got Individual Attention, including once scanning and sending me 32 Pages of Documents I had submitted with my Labor Applications that I had misplaced.Special Thanks to Richa, Prerna, Shivani ,Mathew Rajiv Khanna and Immigration Portal for so much info.
"Having these three organizations to intervene in the case is a good development for students,” says Rajiv Khanna, Managing Attorney at Immigration.com.
At present I am working in OPT ( expires in June 2020). I have an unused stamped H1B visa which I got in August’ 2013 and my visa stamped in my passport on August,2014. However I never traveled/ worked with this H1B visa and expired in October’2016 without using or entry. I came to USA in January’2016 in F1 Visa. My question is can I use this unused stamped visa for cap exempt as transfer of employer from F1 visa to H1B visa now? or do I need to apply in Master’s cap next year.
In your case if we counted from six years from August 2013 when your H-1B was approved, you are then okay or cap exempt till August 2019. But again, the policy has been that they count the six years from the date your H-1B expired which is 2014 not 2013. Policies can change overnight so I think you can apply for an H-1B exemption as an H-1B exempt worker.
I was in need of direction and help on my immigration complications and Mr. Khanna was very patient and prompt in explaining the entire case and steps involved to me. I highly recommend their law office to all who need help and advise related to immigration.
