Thanks all for attending the meetup. It is very important to keep the chapter active.
Minutes of the Meeting:
nixtor updated the chapter on:
(1) State Department's Forecast on the Visa Bulletin for the remainder of the year
(2) Immigration legislation progress on the hill & WH so far
(3) Miken Institute Global conference on Housing and Immigration.
The DC/MD/VA chapter decided to meet every month and one of the agenda is to have more members participate voluntarily and contribute which is very vital for our efforts.
Thanks,
Rayoflight

Need your help..
Post MBA (since Jun'06), I am working with a new employer. My previous employer (bachelor degree), filed for my labor in Nov'04 and I left this company in Jun'06; howevr employer didn't withdrew my labor application. My labor with previous employer was approved in Feb'07. I have good relation with my previous employer and they are ready to file my I-140; I have few questions regarding this:
Can my previous employer file I-140, even if I am not working with them?
If I-140 is approved, would I able to transfer the PD to my new employer, when he initiates my labor application.
Once I transfer my PD, can my previous employer use this approved LC for other candidate?
Based on my new qualifications (MBA), my job description has changed totally compared to my previous job.
Thanks in advance..

Hi Guys,
As you may recall, we have had several phone meetings with Ms. Susan Henner, attorney at law. She has explained many issues and helped many of our members for free. You can see her tomorrow at 11:30AM EST on Fox News. She will be talking about an interesting immigration case.
NO, this is not a joke.
Regards,
Glus

H1B Visa Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
Effective January 21, 2010, the Department of Labor's iCERT online system will be updated to allow the submission of electronic prevailing wage determination requests. This electronic process will allow Employers and/or their Designated Representatives to submit and obtain prevailing wage determinations (PWD) for use in the H-1B, H-1B1 (Chile/Singapore), H-1C, H-2B, E-3 (Australia), and permanent labor certification programs through the iCERT portal.
Until January 21, 2010, all prevailing wage determination requests must continue to be submitted by U.S. Mail or comparable physical delivery service to the Washington, D.C. address listed below.
BACKGROUND - On December 19, 2008, the Department published a Final Rule addressing the Labor Certification Process and Enforcement for Temporary Employment in Occupations Other Than Agriculture or Registered Nursing in the United States (H-2B Workers), and Other Technical Changes. The Final Rule implemented a federalized process for obtaining PWD requests for use in the H-2B temporary nonagricultural labor certification program directly from the Employment and Training Administration's (ETA) appropriate National Processing Center (NPC)--which was designated as the Chicago NPC.
Furthermore, effective as of January 1, 2010, the Final Rule also federalized PWD for use in the H-1B, H-1B1 (Chile/Singapore), H-1C, E-3 (Australia), and the permanent labor certification programs.
Requestors must submit PWD requests using the Application for Prevailing Wage Determination, Form ETA-9141 (http://www.h1bvisalawyerblog.com/Prevailing%20wage%20Request%20FORM.pdf).
Requestors must submit PWD requests to the NPWHC by U.S. Mail or comparable physical delivery service at the following address until January 21, 2010 when electronic means are available:
U.S. Department of Labor-ETA, National Prevailing Wage and Helpdesk Center,
Attn: PWD Request:
1341 G Street, NW
Suite 201
Washington, DC 20005-3142
In summary, State Workforce Agencies (SWAs) and the Chicago NPC no longer accept and process PWD requests received on and after January 1, 2010. All PWD Requests submitted on and after 1/1/2010 must be centralized and processed at the DOL Washington, D.C. office until electronic means are available on January 21, 2010.

If the labor cert has been filed, approved and the I-140 has been filed, I think you can file for an extension of the H1-b. I was advised the same by my attorney, but by the time we filed for the extention, my I-140 was also approved (rather quickly).
You should contact your immigration attorney right away.
But what about extension based on appeal

All,
Here is a hypo situation.
I am sorry this may have been discussed before,.
If 485 from current company is denied, can I use i-140 and EAD and join a different company and have my status safe.. If so, what will be my next steps and what will jhave to be applied again. Current company , lets say will not revoke 140.

I am on H-1 B , and planning to apply for Labor certification - working for an Automobile manufacturing Company in Engineering department,my qualifications are Bachelor in Mechanical Engineering-SOC CODE (17-2141), Masters in Industrial Engineering SOC CODE(17-2112).
Just want to ask can i use Commercial & Industrial designer SOC CODE(27-1021), as base cause for using this code is my current job responsibilities matches with it and also meeting Salary requirements, other two codes giving high salaries comparing this code - (flc data center),
By law do i have to use the same code in which my bachelor or master degree is OR it depends on my current job responsibility
. help will be appreciated
As far as I understand, your degree is not the only criteria to decide the SOC code for labor certification. SOC code depends on the combination of your education qualification and your experience in the relevant field. Every job has a minimum qualification. But the minimum education qualification doesn't describe the SOC code. If you meet the minimum education qualification, you could apply for that job, but then one has to meet the required experience required for the job. I guess the combination of experience in the relevant field and the minimum education qualification together weigh in to decide the SOC code. If your employer and your lawyer feel comfortable with Commercial & Industrial designer SOC CODE(27-1021), then it is Commercial & Industrial designer SOC CODE(27-1021). ;)
All the Best!

Once a person had applied for 485, till they get advance parole if they had gone out of US, the application will be dropped.
I did hear that if you are in H1 B then it is not the case, but lots of Lawyers are advising not to get out of country till the person gets advance parole.
I do remember seeing lots of discussion in one of the portals on this topic, I remember that counselor processing is the option in this type of case.
This is a complex situation, you should consult a lawyer.
