Your's is a tricky situation.
First gather all the documents you have and would be necessary to convince the consular...to prove yours is a minor offence and done with out much knowledge of the system... blah blah blah...
Secondly, find out how long the offence will stay in your record...no clue what you did and don't want to know either.
Third, weigh your options...and take a risk if you should.
I am an F1 grad student - I was planning on going home this winter, and while there I would have to renew my visa so as to be able to re-enter the US.
However, while filling out the forms to set up an appointment for the renewal interview, I remembered that I had a misdemeanor conviction (I pled guilty) for bad checks (this was a very long time ago, about 6 years - it was a bad time, I made some mistakes). When I say 'yes', on the DS-156 form, in response to the question regarding criminal convictions, how likely is it that I will have my visa renewed? Isn't is usually the case that consular officers are looking for any reason to deny visas/renewals?
It seems like my only option is to postpone/cancel my trip, if I want to be able to come back to complete my studies.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I think its not going to be business as usual for H1b holders...nor the employers that sponsored them. I think something is going to change drastically in the coming months...it would be interesting to see what would happen to to the H1b for this FY when they open to doors to accept the application for new H1Bs..

I see no risk in this, unless he is also on an H-1B visa. The H-1B requires him to always be employed, and being on the bench (not getting paid) would be a violation of those terms.
But if he is using his EAD to work and is in a period of authorized stay (pending AOS), travelling with the AP is not an issue at all, as long as he always has a future job offer (in good faith) in hand.
Confirm this with your attorney (I assume you use one to file/extend your EAD/APs)

Isn't this the same proposed rule that was published on Feb 14 in Federal Register and the comment period ended on Apr 14th?

I guess DOL has not come out with the analysis of the comments received and its final stand yet.

You can begin working for company B on your H as soon as company B files an H petition for you, since the H1B is portable. You can also begin working on your EAD for company B, although that will result in you no longer being in H1B status.
Any employment with company B is a violation of your H1B with company A. If the petition from company B is denied, you will no longer be in H1B status.
You could then go back to work for company A on the EAD. If you wanted to work for company A on the H1B you would have to leave the US and reenter on an H1B visa.
I am assuming your EAD is from an I-140/I-485 filed by employer A. You will want to make sure that your I-140 is portable under AC21, otherwise company A could pull your I-140 causing your I-485 and EAD to be denied.

Gurus,
My PD is 2006 (EB2-India). I have approved I-140 under eb2 category. My wife is in AOS status. I am planning to file new I-140 under EB1 (for which I am qualified). If for some reason, my I-140(EB1) gets denied, will that affect my I-485 under EB2? Please share your thoughts.
Thank you and appreciate your reply.

You cannot work with an expired EAD. End of the story.
But if it is approved and you haven't got the card in your hand , few companies would allow you to work for 90 days from the date of approval.

Dhundhun, If you saved a copy of mailed check, Please look for any technical errors like amount in words/figures . Also check for whom it was written ( They demand it to be written for: US Department of Homeland Security) not abbreviations DHS or so.
Duplicate filing may be okay but may involve stop payment of check n withdrawal of 'right' application -- may create a kinda confusion if it is already in process missing on-line updates. Unfortunately, we are always on the receiving end..
BTW: mine was delivered at Phoenix,AZ on 4/12, checks cashed on 4/23 and I received RN yesterday, it is late but most are getting in 2-3 wks time.
Thanks Gbof. I remember of writing check correctly.

Get a syllabus booklet from your university. if you attended a 4 year course they will send you 1 booklet for each year which describes the required courses and the course content in detail. Send this with your reply to the RFE, refer to the pages where they mention the course content and graduation requrements. A friend of mine did this 6 years back for his RFE and was approved. The problem was that the transcript mentioned math but USCIS had not idea of the level of math at the university (yours could be similar...just guessing).
The other option could be to get your transcripts evaluated by a third party.

I asked this before but did not get any answer. Trying my luck again. I lost my OPT card and unfortunately have no records what so ever of it.
Is there a way I can get a copy of this from USCIS?
USCIS will not give you a copy.
OK There are two places you can find your OPT CArd.
1. International Students Office of your College (if you had given thema copy, most likely).
2. The company that you were employed during OPT(Definitely they take a copy of this OPT Card. Check with them.)
Hope you will find Luck with this.

startup visa is the most horrible of all the ideas..... this subject is like a hidden enemy of all immigrants waiting in the backlog ..... is anything like this would pass..... the congress will tell everyone that entrepreneurship related immigration issues are all fixed.... it will be hailed as the biggest victory of american capitalism & congress will forget @ those stuck in the backlogs..... the reality will be that is just another way for those 170 venture capitalist to rake more....
some reporters write these articles with no knowledge of the subject.... & with little or no research of their own....
Why do you think it is SO horrible? Suppose this comes up for debate, we have an opportunity to revise the 170 VC's clause or maybe water it down some extent. If we are not able to do that, even then sometime in the future we could work those screws and try to loosen. At least it gives a segment of our community a chance to clear the line.. just my thinking .

Is anyone here familiar with Canadian PR landing process. What does it mean
to "land"?
I got approved PR papers from Canada. They gave a deadline to land in Canada
before which I am planning to go to Canada. I work in US now and plan to return after landing. How many days does it take to complete this process.
Suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Can employer revoke 140?? It is not a visa. Ofcourse they will have to revoke an H1b, however, what is the argument that you have that indicates that employer should revoke 140?
140 once approved belongs to the employee and can be revoked only if some fraud has been commited or rather some serious mistake. Otherwise all the employer is supposed to do is to abandon the process further or inother words they will not continue to the next stage (485) if PD were to become current.
This is what I get from watching several discussions on various forums. If you have other information please post.
Employer can withdraw/revoke/notify USCUS he is no longer sponsor for that particular employee for the position, similar to H1B. You better check with good immigration attorney.

It�s been long since I got head ache..but today I had every reason to get.
I tried taking an appointment for h1B for December. Here is my experience�
1. After entering the receipt details it took me to available dates calendar. In this screen there was no option to pick an specific date for appointment. This screen was same as the screen we get when we check for available date without entering receipt number.
2. I pressed �Continue� and it later took me to DS156.
3. Filled the form and it took me to screen which displayed my name against a check box with 3 option. The screen says..�select the form to edit/complete..� 3 options I can see are DS156,DS157 and petition details. No matter how many times I edit the information I can�t get the choice to pick the appointment date. Basically I have filled up the form without knowing the appointment date.
4. If I try to download the appointment letter it says..�You cannot download until you specify courier address��.
Has anyone experience similar problem�?? Any work around�.??
Any help is greatly appreciated�thanks in advance�

Thanks for your prompt response.
- still I feel that only because I received just now after 8 years this A#, seems to me that only at this time I'm registered as an immigrant?
That is what alien number means in English ? Sorry.
Vali:
USCIS assigns Unique A# for each individual, who files I485 , some people recieves A# even in I140 too.
When your adjustment of status application(I485) approves then you will be registered as Permanent Resident.
