As far as I know, one is only required to file taxes on foreign accounts if they have $10000 or more in their accounts at any time during the financial year. Please correct me if I am wrong. Also, check: Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts (FBAR) (http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/article/0,,id=148849,00.html)
One is supposed report tax even if they make a dollar but they dont need to fill out the FBAR form if the value of all accounts put together is less than 10K.
Even i started including it my tax last year and did my FBAR form. NRE account will not be TDS only NRO accounts have TDS. Infact, you dont have to pay IT in India for NRE accounts. Thats the reason people from Middle East put their money in NRE accounts.
For 200$ they will not come after you. It is small pickings. I think you should include while filing your taxes and depending upon how much you have in the accounts you may or may not file FBAR. Remember it is all your accounts that inlcudes any savings account, mutual fund accounts, post office etc. If you have paid any tax in India then you could potentially show that in your US tax and get credit for that. I personally have not done it because my income is less than the initial tax slab in india.

My 180 days have been passed. My Career was stagnated from last 6 years. I joined a consulting company and asked him the same title as my Labor. At the client I am now IT Director. Who cares? for USCIS, I am still a Sys Admin, but in real world, I am IT Director and people are reporting to me. Wow, what a difference this AC21 brings in!

Just ask your company to furnish all financial evidence asked for, like Tax statements, Revenue, etc. This is a one of the more common queries for 140. Dont worry too much and respond as soon as you can.

Attorney needs to ask for PD porting while applying new I140. Once new I140 is approved with old PD then send a interfiling letter along with a copy of new approved I140 for adjustment of the pending I485 which is based on old I140.

Yes Sir...I am in the same situation...My Checks cleared on Oct 10, 2007 and I got my receipts on 10/16...Those receipts starting with SRC0800XXXXXX are not available online upto 10/22. But when I check status online on 10/22 afternoon...My and My Spouse EADs are approved and Cards Ordered. But rest of the Receipts still not available online.
My receipts starting with SRC0800xxxx are still not in the system either. It is told that it takes a few days to get them in the system.

Welcome to IV Immiram..
Hi all,
I know the Forums are still pretty active but is the IV Organisation itself still active?
I came across the IV website yesterday and was really stuck by the mission statement of the Organisation. I did not think twice - went ahead and got registered and made one time donation. I even voted for one of the polls for Sep 18 rally and making plans to visit DC but only to realise today that it was really old one :) Also when I was reviewing the forums today I realised that most of the activities seem to be around years 2006-2007 - like Fundraising Campaign or Media News ,etc.
Appreciate anyones response to let me know if IC is still active. Please do not direct any personal attacks. I did not need to explore GC info so far since my GC was started only during March of 2010 & got my Lc approved only yesterday.
If the organisation is still active, I am looking forward to joing the CT chapter. Thanks!

Dont know how to express my feeling but it made me laugh, you statement is absolutely true though sad, its like saying are kuch to kar, kam se kam sharam kar :)..... may be that USCIS guy takes a look at the case and feels ashamed that he approved so many with out an order and this one is pending since so long .....cynical me sorry ...
I would say it is still a good sign as it tells that someone is at least looking at your case instead of your case being in a basement in a box.

My PD is Feb 2002, EB2 and 485 ND: 06/15/2007
I renewed my EAD last month believing that it may trigger GC approval.
Today i received my EAD renewal for 2 years. Expiry date is July 25, 2010
Having oldest PD and receiving 2 yrs EAD, is it a good sign or bad? Please let me know.
Thanks
I suppose your pd has been current for a while now. are you stuck in name check ? do you know why your 485 approval is taking so long ? I'd say you should be getting your GC rather than the ead card.
And why does your public profile say Labor Approval Date: 05/10/2005 where as in your post you say PD is Feb 2002.

She will need to complete a 3 year waiver in medically underserved area or a 2 year home return before you can file for her adjustment of status(I-485).
We had faced a similar situation 3 years back and decided to go ahead with it since looking at the backlogs I am assuming with my PD of 2007 I am still way off from getting my GC.
So now my wife is completing her residency in June this year and has a waiver job lined up. Once/ If dates become current I will file for her I-485 after the waiver is complete.
If you need details then PM me.
Everyone has their own priorities and their own way of dealing with the situations.

It is true. You can start working with new employer from the very next day, after they file H1B transfer application. i.e. you don't have to wait for the receipt.

I wasn't able to create a new thread so would like to post.
I have future GC filed from Company X, the priority date is February 2006.
I am currently working for Company Y on H1B. This H1B will expire in April 2009. Company Y is also ready to file my GC and I would like to work with Company Y till by future GC is approved, my question is
If I have already filed for 485, EAD and AP through Company X, scenario will it be advisable to file another labour and I-140 through Company Y now?
What could be the implications?

My Lawyer is saying that we cannot apply for AP without a valid reason and a valid paper such as someone is sick or wedding with a proof.
Is this true?
Thanks,
PD Feb 2004 - EB3 - India
I140 Approved - May 2007
EAD Approved - Oct 3
EAD recd Oct 10
H1B Status Valid - 2010.
I had the same concerns on reading the instructions on the I-131 pplication form for the AP.
On page 2:
"Advance parole is an extraordinary measure used sparingly to bring an otherwise inadmissible alien to the United States or a temporary period of time due to a compelling emergency."
And later on page 4 section III B 1 they go on to say:
You may apply if you have an adjustment of status application pending and you seek to travel abroad for emergent personal or bona fide business reasons
However on confirming with my lawyer this is not really enforced by USCIS. You can request an AP without submitting proofs of personal emergency or a bonafide business reason, and USCIS will grant you an AP.
Is this true?

Here are a bunch of links showing abuse of some of us H1Bs.
In short Tata was requiring H1B employees to sign over tax refunds to them. It also appears that Tata ensured that taxes were overpaid to ensure that there was plently of refund for them to blackmale employees out of.

Hello,
I am on F1 visa from India and doing PhD US university. My husband is in H1B visa from 2007 November. I would like to apply for green card via National Interest Waiver. When I asked an attorny, he said that since you are from India, it will take few years to get EAD. But I read that you can apply I-40 and I-485 concurently and get EAD card in an year.
Can anyone help me please?
It's not cancelled yet. But there's been talk that USCIS may terminate it soon.

05/05/2008: USCIS May Initiate Rule Making Process in June 2008 for Termination of Concurrent I-140/I-485 Filing Procedure
* As we reported earlier, the USCIS has been considering halting the concurrent filing procedure quite some time. Initially it was planning to commence the procedure to publish this proposed rule in November 2008. However, the latest information reflects that the proposed may be released next month, June 2008 with the two months of comment period through August 2008. People are cautioned that this is just a "proposed" rule stage. After the comment period is over, the agency will still have to go through the final rule making procedure with another cycle of OMB review and publication of the rule. There are nothing to panic about at this time. However, people may be conscious of the upcoming change in the filing procedures for I-140 petition and I-485 application from the current single-tier procedure when the visa number is available to the two-tier procedure. Please stay tuned to this website for this important development of immigration procedure changes.

copy of current employment letter and future job offer...Does this has to be with same company...OR...
Can Current letter be from new Co.(u switced to using AC21) and Future Employment offer leeter has to be from teh Orig Spnsoring Employer???
My I140 sponsor is not my current employer. That's why I had to furnish both current employment letter and future employment offer letter. I have not changed employer as yet though.
If you invoked AC21, I believe you are right, you would have to furnish employment letter from your current employer and offer letter from the orig sponsoring petitioner.
