1. I know, someone on EAD based on AOS waiting for I-485 approval must produce a valid job offer (Supplement J) during GC interview. Once the person update work status as EAD on Form I9, then the legal status will become EAD based on AOS. Can the person start a business/startup while on EAD with pending I-485? If yes, should the person notify USCIS about it? Does Form I9 need to submitted for starting/running a business/startup?
2. I know, someone on H4 EAD can he start a business?
1. If you are the primary applicant of an adjustment of status application you could do the business on the side, but if you take it up completely as your profession, then the job must be same or similar in other words you are trying to do your green card Supplement J through your own business if that's not your intention then you must have a full-time job and you can do the business on the side. Form I-9 is an internal form. It does not get submitted anywhere.
2. Yes he can start the business.

Situation: I am on a cap exempt H1 with an approved I-140 more than 180 days and I found an employer who can file my cap subject H1 this April.
1. If the cap subject H1 is approved before oct 1st, will my new employment start date be earlier than October 1st?
2. Should I have to leave my current employer as soon as the other H1 is approved?
3. What if I don’t join the new employer until I find a project with them? Meaning, can I wait until after oct 1st until I find a project with them?
4. From your previous calls, I understood that if the new H1 is not revoked until oct 1st, I don’t have to go under cap anymore. Is that still accurate? Also, can you explain about getting a new I-94?
5. Should I have to go thru the GC filing all over again?
6. Can I start working with new employer while continuing my current employment?
1.If you are going to completely transfer over to a cap subject H-1B from a cap exempt you are going to start on October 1st, no earlier.
2. No.
3. Do not have the employer file an H-1B unless there is a specific project.
4. Yes that is still accurate.
5. The answer is yes, because you are carrying your priority date forward.
6. If you are working for a cap exempt employer you can actually concurrently work for a cap subject employer as long as it is a concurrent H-1B.

The Question
I am very greatfull to Rajiv Ji and his team for immediately responding to my request for help when I needed it in my immigration problems and queries, on calling Rajiv Ji's office the staff was very co-operative and scheduled a phone appointment with Rajiv Ji at the earliest since the time I had called and Rajiv Ji spoke to me the next day and answered all my queries without charging for it. which is the biggest help I could get. Words are not enough to Thank him for all the help he gives to people in need in his busy schedule at his position. Only Rajiv Ji can handle to help people and carry on his office with his profession in such a efficient way. He is the most kind and helping Immigration Attorney I know of in the USA. My prayers and best wishes go with him for God to shower his choicest blessings on him and his profession to flourish.

Thank you for getting my H1 Approved again
We have received a series of reversals and remands from the USCIS appeals office (“AAO”) where we had argued that the USCIS had erroneously and illegally revoked approved I-140 petitions. The grounds of appeal in the cases involved:
Failure to prove qualifications of employee because the documentation of experience was insufficient;
Successorship-in-interest of companies, where one company was acquired by another;
We represented an applicant after his application for naturalization was denied. He had obtained permanent resident status through marriage with a U.S. citizen. Applicant’s Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, was denied because of a failure to meet the good moral character requirement. USCIS questioned the veracity of applicant’s marriage, and therefore the basis of his Green Card approval.
We represented an IT consulting company and a Senior Software Engineer employed by them from the point forward where they received an RFE. USCIS issued a Request for Evidence (RFE) questioning accreditation of the Indian universities where the applicant received his degrees. We researched the universities in question and documented that both are highly regarded and world renowned institutions. Additionally, we received an expert opinion that noted that both universities were accredited at the time the applicant received his degrees.
Very helpful and understandig staff. Fast processing..
