This is relevant question and I feel that if recession hits US, consultancy companies may ask people go and work offshore till situation gets better. Most of big consultancy firms have projects from non-US countries so they may utilize people offshore.
I hope situation wont get that worse. Just a thought.

Gurus,
My contract pre-maturly ended on Sep 27, 2008. I was on hourly rate on W2. So far I haven't find any assignment. I don't get paid.
Am I eligible for unemployment benefits. Has anyone claimed this. Are there any future disadvantages if you show unemployment.
Please let me know
Thanks and Regards
I am not sure about contracting positions, but if you were a full-time employee of a company and are laid-off, then you are eligible to claim unemployment benefits, which is true for GC holders, too.

Dear Friends,
Does anybody has information on the current lag between check cashing and getting receipt in the mail?
My check for 485 was cashed on August 20 (process by my bank) and the online case status says receipt was mailed out. But my lawyer has not received it as of today.
Thanks in advance for your reply.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) today announced a final rule that adopts, without change, an interim rule to improve the integrity of the Employment Eligibility Verification (Form I-9) process. USCIS received approximately 75 public comments in response to the interim rule, which has been in effect since April 3, 2009.
The main changes made by the interim rule and adopted by the final rule include: prohibiting employers from accepting expired documents; revising the list of acceptable documents by removing outdated documents and making technical amendments; and adding documentation applicable to certain citizens of the Federated States of Micronesia and the Republic of the Marshall Islands.
Employers must complete Form I-9 for all newly hired employees to verify their identity and authorization to work in the United States. The list of acceptable documents that employees may present to verify their identity and employment authorization is divided into three sections: List A documents, which show identity and employment authorization; List B documents, which show identity only; and List C documents, which show employment authorization only.
The final rule will be published in the Federal Register tomorrow and will be available at www.uscis.gov (http://www.uscis.gov). The final rule is effective on May 16, 2011. Employers may continue to use the current version of the Form I-9 (Rev. 08/07/2009) or the previous version (Rev. 02/02/2009). The Handbook for Employers, Instructions for Completing the Form I-9 (M-274) was updated on Jan. 5, 2011, and is available for review at www.uscis.gov/files/form/m-274.pdf (http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/m-274.pdf).
Let us know if we can help in your I-9, E-verify or Public Access Files compliance.

Is there any problem if your passport is expired while on H1 visa?
Do we need to get the passport renewed before it is expiring?
Just get it renewed while you are in US.
Its a one day affair to get your passport renewed(in person). You submit all your docs in the morning and pick it up in the evening.

Thanks for the reply roseball. My question is the new I-94 number that I got with I-797 does not match with what was given at POE but it matches with my husband's old I-94 (which is because of the error when applying).
Is this something we need to apply for correction to match with my old I-94 number which was given at POE?
Yes, you need to get it corrected or just simply re-enter the country which will get you a new I-94.

Dear All,
i might have posted this query in some other forums too, but could not get much response and hence reposting. Please pardon me if you happen to re-read this.
1) I got my fresh H1B visa stamp from employer A and started workin with him from 1st October 2007 . Visa was valid from August 2007 to August 2010.
2) Was laid off on 16th November 2007.
3) Found another employer B and he applied for H1B transfer on 21st December 2007 using regular processing.
4) I do not have any pay stup or any kind of information from employer B.
5) I found another employer (C) and he applied for H1B with a receipt date 19th March 2008 using premium processing.
6) Got approval (I797B) on 21st march 2008. Attorney from employer C told me that i need to leave the US and come back and can start working with employer C. I went to Mexico and came back and started working with employer C since 1st April 2008.
7) Got the job with employer D. Employer D filled for H1B transfer. This time i got approval (I797A) with I-94 attached. Started working with employer D since 1st October 2008.
8) I am still employed with employer D. But my visa is going to expire in August 2010. My I-94 (came with I-797A) is valid till October 2011.
9) I want to get a new visa stamp in my passport and hence want to visit New Delhi US embassy.
Will i be having problem on visa stamping because i dont have pay stup from 16th Nov 2007 till 1st April 2008 ( 4 months and 16 days = 136 days)?
Your help is highly appreciative.
Thanks

"Oversight" is correct as Visa Office was responding to House Committee that has oversight function for immigration.
I'm guessing you meant "insight" (understanding, revelation) not "oversight" (supervision, mistake)

Hello Friends,
I have today booked my visa interview appointment at Mumbai consulate.My hometown is Indore (Madhya Pradesh) and on the visa appointment letter the "State of Residence" says "Maharashtra". I am confused whether I made any mistake or the "state of Residence" says maharashtra based on consulate's state?
Please help me getting answer to this puzzle.

Thanks for the quick replay,
So it means that if she dose not have the AP with her while she leave US, she can not use it.
Can she go for the visa stamping in India and enter in H4? would there be any problem if she goes to visa stamping and enter in H4 while her AP is in process/approved.
Thanks again for the suggestion.

How long it take (in terms day) to receive actual RFE mail notice after LUD status update online about RFE?
No RFE so far. Like I said all I see is new LUDs and all the online messages on i-485 cases say "case received and pending" on all cases. All cases are at Nebraska.

That is correct.. any stay on "H" (H1, H4) or any "L" (L1, L2) will count towards 6 years.

Some had mentioned in immigration forums that you might be grilled with questions during naturalization process if you had changed employer as soon as you got your GC.If you are not planning for naturalization I assume you are fine.
A 6 month stay with current employer after GC is advised for a smooth naturalization process in future.But this is dark area as there are no posts from GC turned citizens about their experiences.
Thats not exactly true in the context of this thread. You have to work for your GC sponsorer for some period of time before changing employer. Pooch was mentioning his/her GC sponsorer is future employer. So after the GC is approved, he/she has to work for that GC sponsorer not the current employer.
