I had similar issue with my spouse H4, then I applied her H4 again before the I-94 expires on the pass port. In my case (h4) costed only $200, I didn't wanted to take a chance then applied and got the extension. If you want to safeguard your status, you better apply for H1 extension, if it is really expiring they will extend your H1 otherwise they might return saying you cannot apply for extension prior to 6 month of expiring.
So decide yourself, don;t ask peoples opinion too many times, you always get mixed results.
NOTE: according to my employer, I-94 given at the POE super seeds all the other form of I-94.
I visited my local USCIS office and the officer told me that they don't do I-94 updates and asked me to contact the CBP office. When I called them up to get an appointment, I got transferred to a lady who asked me the details. After listening to my case she said its perfectly okay and asked me to attach the new I-94 from the 797 to the passport. Is this true?
I am trying to get hold my lawyer but in vain. Please help!!!

I don't know if it is really easy to renew in US.Because i just filled the form with this link https://passport.gov.in/nri/OnlineRegistration.jsp?pocode=USAW and saved the application.I thought It'll save my details , but It looks like it sent the application to embassy.When I wanted to reprint the form it's asking the Web File No which I never received.May be I need to call them for this #.I tried to fill the form and save again.It's coming up with blank page without any Web File No.
When I called officer , he says server may be down try in the evening.Not sure if it works this time.

can someone explain it again in simpler terms ..does the above mean that if a 485 is pending then that person is not out of status (or unlawful presence) till a decision is made on the pending 485 ?
if you re-enter the US on an AP, they give you an I-94 with teh same date of expiry as your AP expiry (within 1 year). AILA was wondering if USCIS could come out with a memo clarifying that essentially that I-94 has no meaning, if you are in the US after it expires, you are still within status (because you have a 485 pending, and that gives you status until the decision is made on it)

I never demanded permanent residence in the US as my right. But I have the right to have my LCA adjudicated in a reasonable time (months, not years) by the US administration. Months, not years! I am here legally, I work hard for this country, pay honestly my taxes and I am entitled to get a quick reply to my application. If it is rejected, OK! Fair enough, I will look for other opportunities.
A company invites you for an interview. You meet them over the course of a few hours and expect an offer. But they don't get back to you. So do you keep waiting forever for that phone call? Or do you assume that you didn't get the job and move on?
We HAVE a choice of going back to our home country: if some of us (me included) choose not to take it, it's because we think the GC will more than compensate for the opportunities we are losing currently.
Don't get me wrong: the US government should fix the broken immigration system. American citizens would never tolerate the tardy service we suffer at the hands of the DOL/USCIS. But in not "voting with our feet" we are part of the problem. Just imagine, if a substantial fraction of H1 visa holders left the US tomorrow (and quoted the backlogs as the cause) wouldn't that get more attention than all our efforts so far?

For adjustment of status you should be in a Valid H1.
Incorrect
If you get your EAD before Setp 16th then you can use this to work and you are safe.
Correct. However if you have H1 extension pending you can still work for H1 employer without EAD
If you dont get EAD you are basically out of status.
Incorect.
The person is in AOS Pending status.
So I suggest get your H1 Renewed Right away using Premium or regular processing.
Again this is my analysis check with your lawyer.
See above in Blue.

We see a lot of these articles every day praising illegal immigration. How about creating a google group with volunteers that will pick up such similar articels and post a rebuttal, either online or through another website?
The one we discussed yesterday was about how illegals contribute to the economy by paying $1.5 Billion in income tax for an estimated 15-20 million illegals.
This was estimated from the 2010 Census data.
We could initially post these rebuttals online on probably a section of the IV website and also send it to other news sites.
People who are good at parsing excel/MDB, csv sheets will be useful.
Most people are not aware of our issues and contributions to society.
Were you part of the call yesterday on the Filing I-485 when PD is not current....we do have plans like these...and take part.

No matter how many years you are on H1B, 2 or 10..., you are out of status as soon as your employment ends. Unlike what many H1Bs think, there is no grace period. You have 10 days to pack your bags and leave. However to verify your employment USCIS uses paystubs, so if you immediately find another job and file for a new H1B before your current employer reports to the USCIS that you are no longer working you should be OK.
So first thing you need to keep in mind is do not fight with your current employer. He can screw you in more than one way.
Second, get a three year extension if you can.
Third, find a stable employer... I know many people here hate consultancy companies, but that is the safest option for you.
If you read the transcripts of the Q&A with lawyers, posted on the front page of this site, you will find answers to question about changing jobs when you have I-140 approved etc.

Given a choice (with comparable role and growth) I will be more inclined to spend few years (~5) in Europe, post MBA.
Was just trying to make sure if there was a easier way to maintain my GC, at the same time complete my studies in parallel.
Per all your suggestions, there are ways to walk that tightrope, but its not very straight forward...Also I am not looking into deferring my studies for a year..
Will go ahead with resignation...
Thanks again for all sincere advise and wishes.

Employer has to show that he can support all the employees that have an 140 pending. It cannot be attributed to being sadistic alone.
However, having an official AC21 process would be good.
minimalist, thanks for sharing your views. As I said, I am a layman and do not know all the details. appreciate your input.
In this case, once an official request for AC21 is filed, CIS can release that particular employer from all liabilities for this 'AC21ed' 140. Since new employer is not required to show any financial statement (in case of EAD), this may be a good option.

My wife had the same issue. We had to type the following letter and attach evidence as follows:
Date Entered to US - Visa Type - Date leaving US I-94 Status Evidence
For the evidence, you need to refer to the copy of the passprt that indicates the stamping and your lawyer must include a letter that states that he has verified all the dates and attach the reference to page number duly attested by the lawyer's office.
Under the I-94 status column, you need to indicate if the I-94 was surrendered at airport or not. If you are not aware, please enter 'do not know'. Visa type was the type of visa used to enter US (my wife travelled on B1, H1 (some 10 times) and most recently on H-4) and now waiting for EAD to resume a new career.
Hopefully that should address it. Apparently, my lawyer has never seen an RFE on I-131. So, he's not sure if that resolves it or not. Case status still indicates an RFE online. Good luck.

My suggestion is not to insult or hurt anybody. I understand the purpose of immigrationvoice. I am a contributor and will continue to support IV. However the way people hijack threads really pisses me off. The leaders of IV should figure out a better way to motivate people to donate. If people are not inclined then stop calling them names etc. I am not talking about anybody in particular. If somebody is not inclined it is not completely his/her fault. The coercive tactics some people use on the forum to make people donate actually does piss of a lot of people. I am nor talking about anybody in particular, but this is NOT the way to motivate people to contribute.
Sorry if I heart anybody feelings.
And I will donate to IV again..
I just check oxford dictionary to make sure whether I screwed somewhere but what I found is it was request to dollar500 from my side. It was not a advise. Rather you are advising me not to advise.. Is not it contradictory?
And if at all poster might have felt bad about my request s/he should have replied my post. Why on earth you wanted to jump in?

Such companies thrive because immigrants are not complaining about them enough.
If you find any company breaking the law, abusing the system or 'exploiting' immigrants as anti-immigrants allege, you must take action.
DOL USCIS must be informed. Search the forum and you will find resources how to do it. Unless we all take steps, there will be few bad apples that will give a bad name to the entire system.
I think it was Mahatma Gandhi who said that a person who accepts a bad deed and does not take action is also equally responsible as the person doing it.
IV strongly condemns anyone breaking the law. People must report it to the authorities. IV community must work on protecting the rights of the immigrants and support anyone who is willing to go against companies that break the law or 'exploit' immigrants.
