The US Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) has issued new guidance (http://www.uscis.gov/files/nativedocuments/health_care_occupations_20may09.pdf)on the standards for adjudicating H-1B petitions filed on behalf of beneficiaries seeking employment in a health-care specialty occupation.
The memo suggests that adjudicators should first consult the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics� Occupational Outlook Handbook (OOH) to determine whether the position qualifies as a H-1B "specialty occupation" as defined in the Immigration and Nationality Act.
The memo addresses licensing requirements for health-care workers in detail, and the effect of having a license - or not having a license - on approval of a case. If the foreign national has the required license, the adjudicator should not "look beyond the license." If the foreign national has a restricted license (e.g., license approved except for mandatory supervised practice), and the petition is otherwise approvable, an adjudicator should approve the petition for one year, or the duration of the restricted license, whichever is longer.
If the employee does not have the license because s/he needs certain immigration documents before getting a license, CIS can approved the petition for one year. The memo says that "The approval of any such H-1B petition shall not constitute approval by USCIS for the alien beneficiary to engage in any activity requiring possession of such State or local license. It is merely a means to facilitate the state or local licensing authority�s issuance of such a license to the alien, provided all other requirements are satisfied."

http://itavisen.no/art/1304403.html?PHPSESSID=6f659d505057356c057c50b88ed ea679 reports that the Norwegian Nikon distributor Interfoto held a press conference today warning people against using "cheap" memory cards from vendors not on Nikon's approved list.
According to Interfoto the cheap memory cards doesn't fit too well physically and can damage the camera. Their service department report pins that are either broken or even forced into the camera itself.
In addition there has been problems with pictures disappearing when "the card crash".
Interfoto recommends Sandisk and Lexar, as well as Microdrives from IBM/Hitachi. (Interfoto is the Norwegian Lexar distributor btw)
Has anyone else heard something similar?

Its been more than a month that my employer got the approval email but the lawyers say they never got the paper cert. In their opinion, now it is too late to expect the paper. They also say that it is impossible to get a duplicate cert from DOL.
The only option, per my lawyers, is to file a regular I140 and ask USCIS to get the duplicate directly from USDOL when we get the RFE.
Has anyone else had a similar experience or is the laywer pulling my chain since i have three EADs and APs due for approval in 3 months.
Can folks confirm that PERM certs indeed go missing and this is the only recourse?

If you are Canadian Citizen (by birth not naturalized) it should be pretty quick, maybe 6-18 months depending on FBI name check timing.
You should get your EAD 10-12 weeks.
I am not sure about one thing. As I know visitor visa doesn't have an immigrant intent, is that a negative or neutral in your instance.
As far as priority dates go Canada has always been current.
All the above I said is based on very little specific input about your case. Let some guru chime in who has been on this path already.

Hi
I have an urgent query. Please help.
I was laid off from my company AA during last week of March-2010. I have not yet singed the lay off letter. And I was rehired by the same AA company on second week of May. I have valid I 94 for next 2 years. But my visa got expired. I was out of payroll for a month. I dont have last 2 payslips.
I have joined the new client through the AA company few days before. My AA compay is asking me to go my Home country and get my Visa stamped and come back. Is there a way that I can continue the employment here without travalling to my Home country at this point ? Are any other better solutions / ways.
Immediate response highly appreciated.
thanks

No, Thank You!
Yes, I think that all of us will be better prepared in muting and un-muting our phones!
Membership - great suggestion - try to actually get retrogressed indivduals talk themselves about how it affects them, and then they make the case for joining IV!
Meet Lawmakers - great point to establish relationships with lawmakers / their staff
Publicity - will wait as things unfold
Liaison -great work in establishing contact with USINPAC & AAPI
Great beginnings!
I cannot believe all the effort that you guys are putting in! But, we will put in our bit as things move!
The absolute take home message - LOBBYING IS TOP-DOWN APPROACH, WHILE IV MEMBERS REACHING LAWMAKERS & OTHER GRASSROOTS EFFORTS ARE BOTTOM-UP APPROACH; THEY ARE COMPLIMENTARY, NOT MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE!

I think any non-H1 (including H4) stay wont count. You will have full 6 yrs on H1 visa.
Hi,
I am currently in L1B visa , i am in US for 40 Months. The total period that i can be in US in L1B is 5 yrs .
I am planning to do my H1B this year (2008), having already elapsed 40 months, if i get a H1B will the period elapsed ( 40 months in L1B) be accounted or i will get the H1b for 3 yrs.
Thanks

its common belief that you need to work for 6 months.
There is no immediate problem if you don't but looks bad on citizenship time.

Things you mentioned are not in you control so it would be OK. But if you leave on your own then may be a problem....

that shouldn't be any issue. She would be admitted at POE. However if she has filed for H4 extension and if the H4 extension is pending when she enters into US, the H4 extension will be considered abandonded and will be asked to go to consulate for stamping before her I-94 expires and can't use the approved H4 extension's I-94. check with yuour attorney on it.

Im using Asp.net.
The button text consists of data I have imported from an SQL database through a web client. I assume I should then replace the html character codes in the SQL database with these unicode identifiers? Would that still work with ASP.NET-C#?

Please let me know your suggestion.

I think you should be okay. I have like 5 H1Bs ( with all the extensions). My first name has 2 words and my last name is two words. On each h1b its different. I never had any problems in stamping so far. One I stamped from India, once mexico, couple times from DC ( this service is closed now).
Good luck.

For the second time, a federal judge has declared a Farmers Branch ordinance banning illegal immigrants from renting in the city to be unconstitutional. Here are excerpts from a Dallas Morning News (http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/localnews/stories/DN-FBsuit_25met.ART.Central.Edition1.4c77c2c.html) article reporting this decision:
U.S. District Judge Jane Boyle of Dallas ruled Wednesday that the ordinance was an attempt to enforce U.S. immigration laws – something the judge said only the federal government can do.
The judge also issued a permanent injunction to stop Farmers Branch from enforcing Ordinance 2952.
Mayor Tim O'Hare, the driving force behind the ordinances, said he wants to appeal.
"The American people are tired of judges legislating from the bench," he said. "This decision is not unexpected but welcomed, because it allows us to get closer to this ordinance becoming reality."
But O'Hare said the City Council would have to vote on whether to continue a fight that has cost the city nearly $3.2 million since September 2006. And the city may need to spend an additional $623,000 in legal fees in the year ahead, city finance director Charles Cox said Wednesday.
About one-quarter of the estimated 30,000 people who live in Farmers Branch were born outside the United States. About 47 percent of the city's population is Hispanic.
In the past four years, the city has proposed a series of ordinances that would make it illegal for landlords to rent to illegal immigrants. A version approved by the council in 2006 was repealed in early 2007 to make way for another ordinance.
That ordinance, No. 2903, was approved by two-thirds of voters in 2007 but later declared unconstitutional by U.S. District Judge Sam Lindsay. The city abandoned an appeal of that ordinance in favor of Ordinance 2952. No. 2952 added all rental units, including houses, to the ban on renting to illegal immigrants.

If they start asking for all W2s, then 90% won't get green cards. They are making life miserable for grene card aspirants

First of all if it is PP you will get possible approval in few days.
It may not be a good idea to go for stamping with only 3 months remaining on I-797; and these days they are also issuing 221g left and right.

The victim was an immigrant like us and became a naturalized citizen here.
No one knows the motive behind the attack, it is still being investigated.
It was posted here to caution the immigrants of these attacks (just like in Australia).
