There are some website that help you to prepare tax return, for example Finalysis.com, myIBSN.com.
These guys are filing 2106 form for claiming employee job expenses and Misc deductions and getting more refund.
In my case my offshore company (in India) has office in NY/NJ and I am working in Georgia state and for whole year 2007 i was working in Georgia state and I had never been to NY/NJ.
In this scenario can i claim for rent/meals/commutation/laundry?
There are many applicants filing through these tax preparer's approx 2,50,000 are these agencies reliable?
- Thanks for your help

My Wife got an RFE on her Medical. Her RFE is
A review of your file indicates that you submitted a medical examination completed by designated civil surgeon. however, the civil surgeon failed to complete the immunizations supplement to Form I-693.
Please return to the civil surgeon so that civil surgeon can administer appropriate vaccinations.
I know she did not take Measles Vaccine as it she was pregnant that time.
My wife is currently in India. My questions are
1) Does she need to go through complete medical examination again? will it be enough to just send documentation regarding missing vaccine. (There is no info given in RFE regarding what is incomplete)
2) can she do any thing about medical exam in India. I mean can she get a certificate from India?
3) can we ask for additional time to respond to RFE? If yes is it Advisable and safe? How much additional time can be requested?
4) If she has to travel back, she has to travel on AP as My H1 transfer is pending. So my question is what happens if her H4 gets approved before she comes here. Does she need to apply H4 again?
5) If my H1 transfer does not get approved till she comes back, My understanding is, once H4 gets approved it automatically overrides Parolee status. Am i correct?
6) while coming on AP what documents she need to carry. Does she need to have My employement letter, any thing else?
I appreciate any help about my questions.

My wife and I both came back on AP through Frankfurt on Feb 3rd. We do not have stamped H1-B visas in our passports. You do not need Transit Visa. Transit through Frankfurt is very easy and hassle-free. Security and immigration personnel in Frankfurt are very friendly and nice.
Hope this helps.

You can have a contract written for the required 5 yr period, where you and the employer have a without cause 60 or 90 day opt out clause. Many contracts are structured that way and there have not been problems previously. The main thing is the letter that comes form the State Dep't of heath supporting your petition. Speak with the point person in your state and they will be able to guide you.
Generally it is less complicated to get an employment contract for the NIW commitment duration, however in answer to your question, yes you can also petition on a business plan to open a practice after your 3 yr commitment. The visa retrogression and inability to file 485 may complicate this a little however.
Another distinction you should understand is, once you get an employment agreement, the petition can be filed by your employer or by you. You should self petition since you then control the destiny of the 140 petition. ie. it will not be withdrawn.
Good luck.

I thought this will be a useful information to everyone.
My Case,
04/18/2008 -Applied EAD online
06/19/2008 -Status changes to "Approved" but no Notice sent.
07/20/2008 -Waited for 30 Days and called USCIS to open a Service Request.
07/24/2008 - Received EAD at home.
08/26/2008 - Received the letter from USCIS saying we have sent you the card but never received back or delivered to you hence concluding it is considered lost and if you need it, Please file for EAD again.
I called USCIS, Customer server rep said take an Infopass appointment to make sure it is valid.
Took the appointment, went USCIS on 09/10/2008.
Officer takes a look and tells me "Obviuosly you have EAD in your possession and unless you made it up on a color Laser printer, It is my fault that I have provided wrong information to USCIS and not waited for 30 days as I should have and I am there to pick up a fight with USCIS,bla bla bbla"
I remained very calm knowing he does not like his job but have to do it.
He is rude and clueless at the most why I am there. My first experience with USCIS, I dont think I want to go to their office again.
Finally conclusion he tell me "Once EAD is issued it remains VALID until you notify USCIS that it is lost or stolen or tempered with, USCIS DOES NOT take any proactive actions on EADs that are issued. Hence NO action is neccessary at this time"
Moral of Story is DO NOT go to USCIS if you receive such type of letter from USCIS after opening a service request for EAD.
I wasted a good amount of time and money just to take this BS.
Thanks
I hope this helps.

Hi all, I hope someone can provide me with some advice.
I made an awful mistake today. I am in the middle of an H1-B transfer (company just signed application and sent to lawyer for sending to uscis this week) and moving to a different city for this job. I am moving this week and will commute to my old job until my notice gets accepted. My issue:
I had prepared my AR-11 (change of address form) and had it sitting on my desk ready to be mailed once my application was approved (since my application and all documents had my old address from when they started the process). I took the envelope with other mail by mistake today and put it in the mail.
Will this be an issue with the application? I don't know if they'll deny my transfer because of an address discrepancy or something.
Please advise.

I would transfer to a visitor visa and then identify which university and course I want to join. Once I have all the things lined up I would hire a good attorney and file for a new F1.
Good luck.
hie,
i was on opt and my opt ended jan 24th 2009. i had applied to a masters program for spring 09. my old school ( where i did my bachelors) transfered my sevis information to my new school( where i was to start masters). however i decided to discontinue with my new school's masters program. i did not registered for classes. i told them that i would no longer want to pursue that particular masters anymore. i now want to join another institute for a short time. they require my sevis information in order to make an i20 for me. my new school( where i had applied for masters) says that they do not have an i20 for me since i cancelled my program. whichever institute i transfer to for future studies would require a copy of a current i20 from me for admissions.
now where does this situation leave me? am i out of status as of now? will i be able to transfer to any university/institute for my future studies?
Good luck.

Not sure why you want to go to Consulate in India and why you have to mention to them about the 22 days. H1 will not be processed in the Consulate in India, it will be processed only here. If you are saying that in future when you go to the US Consulate in India for stamping then its not needed to mention about the 22 days, since you filed before the I-94 expiration. Do have a soft copy of the FexEx receipt saved for your future use.

Hi,
Applied for EAD renewal on 6/11/2008. Should I get it for 2 years or 1 year.
My understanding is everything that gets processed after 6/30/2008, will be for 2 years.
My PD is 6/12/2006, EB2 - which is not current right now, and I don't expect it to be current, until my I-765 gets processed (Well if it becomes current I guess I don't need 2 years :) )
Thanks for any comments/thoughts!

You can definetly start any bussiness you want. As per the link below it seems it will be safe to stay with the current employer for atleast 6 months.

It is now on a list that sets it up for a voice vote in the house and will certainly pass. Unfortunately though it has only two provisions- extenson of the conrad program by 5 years and an increase in the number of flex spots.
We are hopeful that once the bill reaches the senate, provsions for GC exemption and H1 eligibility will be added on.
If you have interest in physicians issues please join the physicians chapter and help us push for these provisions.

Is this for H4 renewal or first time H4. If its for renewal she can go to any US consulate in India. However, if it is first time she has to go the consulate that falls in her zone i.e her place of residence. Confirm it with VFS.

DMV has accepted EAD with Last name as LNU though the passport do not have any surname . They have issue DL with LNU. Life is moving on.
When I checked with My lawyer about "How to correct at 485 filing" . My lawyer belongs to one of the big corporate lawyer firm (USABAL)
1) correct the name at password . we can send the passport for name split .
if you do not have this isse then ignore
2) Wait for GC CARD
3) File some kind of form to get the replacement card --(we need to attach some proof with form) . Lawyer is going to file for us.
For now just waiting ...
