There is just one thing you can do......pray........however gods immigration dept is as slow as USCIS............IV community will attest to that:)
Ofcourse you dont need approved h1b to leave the country......only to come back..so if you will be there for a few weeks you can get PP done till then........make sure stamping etc is taken care of before you show up at POE.........

ANSWER:
Your lawyer is partly right. You can either petition once you are a citizen, or you can petition for a "hardship waiver" once you become a LPR(ie when you get a GC).
Not sure if you have visibility into when you may likely be getting your GC, but don't risk fudging the truth on the documents. You might get into more trouble than you already are. Remember that on a temp. visa like the H1, your rights are pretty much limited.
In my opinion, if you really want to stay in the US for the long term, you may be better off separated (unless the law changes), or move to another country. Note that there will be several hardships you may encounter..for example, simple things like opening a bank account, buying a home , renewing a driver's license, etc.,
I know this sounds harsh, but thats how it is. Purely my opinion.......
QUESTION:
He is an undocumented immigrant in the U.S. for more than 10 years. So my lawyer told me that I could only help him to get greencard when I become a citizen. So I have the following questions :
When I do my first time H1B visa renewal, will my new Marriage status disturb me to get the H1B renewal? should I just simply fill in the form saying I am "SINGLE" and not tell the consulate? Will the consulate know?

California Can Thank Google For Budget Windfall
(AP) SACRAMENTO Someday, this era may simply be known as The Google Years.
California, whose budget revenue slides up and down like a yo-yo with changes in capital gains and stock options, is once again counting on outsized income tax filings from a handful of tech executives to help balance its budget. For this wave, California can largely thank Google Inc.
After cashing in more than 9 million shares valued at $3.7 billion last year, 16 Google insiders will owe the Golden State as much as $380 million in taxes -- enough to cover the salaries of more than 3,000 state workers. - And countless other employees in Silicon Valley,

Share experience about Vonage about calling India.
Vonage, a provider of voice over Internet protocol phone service, has reached a settlement with Kentucky, Indiana and 30 other states over allegations of deceptive marketing and unscrupulous customer service procedures.
Under the agreement, Vonage will make �significant� changes to its marketing practices and handling of consumer cancellation requests. It also will provide refunds to eligible customers.
The company will pay the states a total of $3 million for reimbursement of legal and investigative costs. Kentucky�s portion of the reimbursement is $45,000, according to a news release from Kentucky Attorney General Jack Conway�s office.
Vonage officials could not immediately be reached for comment.
Vonage was ordered to provide refunds to customers who did not receive rebates they believed they were due because their accounts weren�t open long enough to qualify or because they spent a portion of their trial periods waiting to receive or return equipment.
Refunds also will be provided to customers who were assessed excess usage charges without being informed of usage limits, received additional monthly service charges because of difficulty in canceling service, or received charges for unordered services and equipment offered as free.
Under the settlement, Holmdel, N.J.-based Vonage (NYSE: VG) must revise its disclosures for offers of free services, money-back guarantees and trial periods, according to the release. The company also must follow strict guidelines in dealing with customers wishing to cancel their service.
Through their investigation, the states found that Vonage paid bonuses to customer service representatives who retained customers. As a result, many customers had difficulty canceling their service.
Now, Vonage must record and verify conversations between customers and the company�s customer service representatives, according to the release.
Vonage customers who believe they are eligible for a refund under the settlement can call the Kentucky Attorney General�s Office of Consumer Protection hotline at (888) 432-9257, or download a complaint form at Kentucky: Attorney General Jack Conway - Forms (http://ag.ky.gov/civil/consumerprotection/complaints/forms.htm).

I am currently on H1B, and my current company is not willing to sponsor me for GC. I am in my 5th year. I have found another company who has agreed to hire me and start my gc process, however, I am in a fix. This new offer is in CA and I am currently in NJ (+ my family)
I don't want to take this option unless it is absolutely necessary. My spouse, has the I-140 approved and not yet filed I-485. PD is Jan 04, EB3.
What are my options?
How many months left for you in fifth year? You need atleast 6 months to join another company so that they can do all the necessary steps in those 6 mnths before they file PERM. Are you trying to transfer to consultancy or full time employer?

I have valid H1B visa in my passport.
Can I travel to India via London.
Can you please tell me what restrictions we have at london to travel. I heard some European countries have restrictions to travel.
-------------------------
For transit flight through London (i.e. UK)
-------------------------
If a valid US visa is stamped in your passport and the passport and visa have not expired on the day of your travel, you are exempt from the transit visa requirement at London. If the visa is not stamped in you passport, say you are carrying advance parole travel document, in that case you need a Transit visa.
-------------------------
For transit flight through Paris (i.e. France)
-------------------------
If a valid US visa is stamped in your passport and the passport and visa have not expired on the day of your travel, you are exempt from the transit visa requirement at Paris. If you are carrying advance parole travel document, in that case too you do not need a Transit visa at Paris.
Hope this is useful.

I�m confused about using the EAD. Someone please clarify me�.
I already received the EAD for me and my wife. Currently, I�m in the H1b which is expiring on Sep 2008 (6 years are over). My questions are?
�Can I be in H1b and still work another job as a part-time?
�If my wife wants to work using her EAD does it have any effect on her h4 status?
�If my wife loose her job during the use of her EAD what will be her status?
�I applied my I485 in July 2, 2007. As I already received my EAD, can I be unemployed after 180 days and start a business by myself?
�I know after receiving the AP I visit any their country. What will be my status after I come back? Still H1b or anything else?
It will be very much appreciated if some can answer my questions?
Thanks ahead

Anyone who has succefully self filed for an Advanced Parole who can help me on this question?
What is the answer you put to answer the question:
"On a seperate sheet of papaer, please explain how you qualify for an advance parole and what circumstansces warrant issuance of advance parole. include copies of any documents you wish considered. "
Thank you.
I entered exactly the following on a separate sheet for that item:
"Pending adjustment of status petition. Lengthy adjustment and the need to visit family from time to time."
I self filed for I-131 (both for my spouse and myself) and had no problem with the approval.

My wife's green card was approved on Feb 27th. My wife is currently in India with valid Advance Parole. I received her green card during March 15th. I am planning to visit India during June and bringing my wife along with me. It will be almost 5 months when I come back on July 1st week.
Will it create problem for my wife to re-enter to US? Since she has valid AP and GC card, can she enter without any problem? or does she need to come early since her GC was received ?
