Here is my question. In my college days bacd in the early 90's and mid 90's, I used to work and worked with my original Social secuirty number. Another words, I was given pay checks. I paid taxes and got refunds as well. Obviouslly all illegal since I had no permission to work as I was on FI visa. Anyways, after graduating college, I got H1b visa. Now I am in my 9th year, and my labor and I140 have already been approved. So the question is, when I am called for my 485 interview, will they know that i worked illegally, will they have records of that. I also have a DWI. I think DWI is ok, as I have read many got their green cards after this. I am more concerned with my working illegally.
Just recentlly I was sued by Discover card. The judgement against me in teh court was for 10,000 +. I have paid half of it and will pay the rest in 6 months. Will that affect my Green Card.
Please eloborate.
Thanks!
You have to disclose and consult those question with your immigration lawyer since they will have a better answer for that particular problems and usually your lawyer will company you during the interview. If you've got lucky there will be no interview at all.
if you ever got out from US after violated your status and get back in, get a new I94 and never violated your status again after your last entry by working illegaly you should be fine.
Or if your total working hour is not over 180 days there is law if I'm not wrong part of ac21 that pardon that kind of violation as long as it's not more than 180 days.

This has been discussed before!
Moving to EAD is irreversible. You can't come back to H1b without applying for new H1.
The way USCIS knows that is you will show paycheck without valid H1.
This has been discussed before in many threads in details.. do the search.
I am planning to work on EAD soon and switch my employer using AC21. How would USCIS know that I have switched from H1b to EAD. I might change my mind after 1 months and get back to H1 transfer and work on H1 instead on EAD.
This depends on if the future project is long term and I switch to H1B just to be safe.
Any ideas would be appreciated...

I think it would be better idea to call them and find out their hours of operation. The address is usually given on the FP notice letter.
All the best!
I think: We donot have a choice. We have to show up on the day and time given on FP notice. If we can't- we have to request uscis for re-scheduling.

I have an appointment for H1B visa stamp @ the toronto consulate next week. This will be my second stamp (first one expired early this year).
I received a phone call from the consulate asking for my H1B receipt/notice dates and receipt number, etc...She told me that there is new rule where USCIS has to verify the I-797 petition even though you carry an original approval notice. With this rule in effect...she told me the passport wait time is miminum of 4 days.
I already booked my tickets 2 weeks ago. I'm confused. Has anyone else received a call or have recently obtain H1B stamp in toronto?
I was hoping to come back in few days and now it's going to cost me $$$$$. I wish NVARS told me this when I signed up for the appointment.
:(:(:(
This is the new rule and went into effect from last week of Nov. It is not only for the Consulate in Toronto but all US Consular posts in Canada atleast.

You should be good if the University (UNVA?) is currently unaccredited and has a future chance of accreditation. USCIS might be more lenient for a SEVIS registered school and approved to operate in the state by the respective state education board. Consult an attorney for legal advise.

Sure...
Green card is for future employment. When the company files your labor it mentions and shows that it can support the wages for that position.
Example
If the wages mentioned in the labor is 80K and you are getting paid 70K then the IO might want to see if the company is making 10K in profit so that they can pay you 80K.
So if your current employer is making a profit => your prevailing wage then
you are good.
This is what my lawyer told me...you talk to yours

Hi,
Here is the my status:
- 140 approved(EB3 category)
- I am in 7th year of my H1
- 3year H1 extension is in-process
All of the above with Company-A.
If the 3year H1 is approved, will I be eligible to change job to Company-B and transfer my H1 to Company-B?
Can I take my priority date from my application from Company-A to B?
In what way Company-A can affect my status once I switch to Company-B?
Thanks for your input.
