Can a J-2 dependent (Canadian citizen) change to other working visa or have to change to H-4 when J-1 gets waiver and moves to H-1. Basically any hope for a spouse on J-2 to get work authorization (TN/H-1/investor visa) before the 3 year waiver is complete?
Yes, the J-2 can, UNLESS the J-1 holder is a physician serving the three years for J-1 waiver.
1) I recently submitted a PERM with company A which is wholly owned by a parent company B. Company B will soon absorb company A which will cease to exist as an independent company and will just become a new department within company B. How will my PERM be affected?
<br>
2) If my PERM is audited and I don't want to go through the audit, will it be a good idea to change employers and submit a new PERM from scratch? What are the odds of being selected for an audit twice in a row?
It IS possible for your green card to remain unaffected even after the corporate change over.
U.S. Department of Labor, ETA-Office of Foreign Labor Certification Announcement:
USCIS issued a new policy (PA-2014-009) clarifying the definition of “mother” and “parent” under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) to include gestational mothers using assisted reproductive technology regardless of whether they are the genetic mothers.
A Form I-9 (Employment Eligibility Verification) is admissible in immigration proceedings to support charges of removability against an alien and to determine his or her eligibility for relief from removal. For more details please see Matter of Ezra Kibichii BETT (Cite as 26 I&N Dec. 437 (BIA 2014) ) - Interim Decision #3818.
Can I just take over an existing business with the required investment and continue?
That depends upon how old the business is and how you wish to structure your ownership.
Last year my tourist visa was denied because the officer thought I may not come back. Now I am going for student visa. What effect will the tourist denial have on my student visa application?
When the tourist visa denial is based upon a possible intent to immigrate (also known as INA Section 214(b) denial), it CAN be a problem for student visa.
I would like to thank my Case Manager, Subha, Roopa and their team for getting my Labor Certification under EB2 with PERM in 2 1/2 months. I also would like to mention the care they have taken while filling the LC form, which got reviewed many times before applying.
I sincerely recommend their service and quote them as very Professional and Excellent Service.
Thanks to all.
Excellent work done by Rajiv S. Khanna and my case Manager Richa helped me with the process to obtain Labor certification for EB3 category under PERM process. I am sure they will continue the good work all the way to getting my Green Card.
I received my PERM approval in 3 days.
Richa and Mohana has been very co-operative, professional
and prompt throughout the case
Special Thanks to Richa Narang and Mohana Navran for their timely help, valuable legal advise
I strongly recommend their services.
I started my GC processing in November 2005 through Rajiv Khanna’s law firm. He is a lawyer of great standing and has helped me at every point in the whole process. I must mention here that the paperwork done under his guidance has been perfect and I had no inquiries during the process. My PERM labor was approved in 58 days from the date of filing and my I-140 was approved in just 32 days from the date of filing. I found the staff in his office in general and with a special mention of Aruna and Amrita, both of them have been very co-operative. Thanks to rajiv and his staff.
Happy News. That's why I prefer and recommend Rajiv's office to every one. I get always good suggestions and ideas from Rajiv. Eventhough there was big confusion in applying EB2 for my case. Rajiv did a very correct and good decision for my back up case process to file it in EB2. I did not even expect the approval so early. My I 140 got approved in one month and we received the approval on June9th. I had good support from Mathew,Subha,Prerna earlier and now I had the same support and good care from Aruna also. Once again I thank Rajiv and his team for another successful move in my case.
Thanks to Aruna and everyone worked on my case. I got my I140 approval without any RFE. Looking forward to working with Mr. Rajiv Khanna's experienced staff to get my GC.
My wife and I received our GC within 9 months for the whole process with Rajiv S. Khanna as our attorney. I would like to thank Aruna for all her help and being very responsive on my case. Thank you all, it is was a pleasure to work with you. Regards...
I like to thank Pramita and Roopa for their great efforts and works that made my Labor Certificate approved in 1 day.
Hi,
Mine is a long story and will write-up the story in detail when I get a chance. I'm still hoping to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Eventhough, it was Unfortunate that my first labor certificate was denied (for some reasons!!!) which changed my entire career plans (and also changed a lot on the way to file PERM petition after that...) Thanks for Subha and Roopa for their efforts to get my second PERM labor certificate approved in 20 days. So I'm still having little hope with the direction I'm heading towards. I appreciate Rajiv for his courteous nature.
Regards,
Manju
Mr. Khanna's firm and specifically my case manager Mr. Vijay Durgam helped me with the process to obtain Labor certification for EB2 category under PERM process. I am sure they will continue the good work all the way to getting my Green Card.
I have got my H1B extenstion approved for 3 years after my 6th year H1B period in 7 days using the approved I-140 petition. I had my last 3 H1B extensions processed through Mr.Khanna's office and Ursula Escoto prepared the forms three times PERFECTLY and NO RFEs. Thanks SO MUCH to Ursula Escoto. I am greatly pleased with Rajiv and Ursula as far as their professionalism, courtesy and promptness regarding my immigration. THANKS A LOT URSULA...
We have been working with Rajiv's office almost for 2 years, they provided excellent Professional Services. This Law office is higly recommended for H1B, PERM or any other Immigration related needs.
