    Hello Guys,

    Hope u guys can help me.

    Urgent! On H1B when filing Family based AOS. Got threatened by an H1B employer to report USCIS

    in Adjustment of Status from Work, Student, & Tourist Visas

    Posted

    Dear all,

    Please kindly advise me on what i should do. I have entered the US in Oct 2007 on H1B. And, I have filed family based AOS.

    The company i work is a private consulting firm. And the nature of work we do is contractual based. I was working on a contract job from December until early March 2008. Then, I have become on bench. The company has a rule that i need to report to the office everyday from 9 -5.

    I got married with my USC husband in Jan 2008. We filed I-130/I485 on Feb 2008. (I was still working for them at the time of filing) After filing I-130/1-485 for a month or so, the contract was over. I reported to the office since that time until early April 2008. Last week, i got AP and EAD card. So i want to become independent as soon as i can. I have just started actively applying for jobs myself. But not much is going on. I haven't gotten any offeres and used an EAD card yet.

    My employer called today threatening me (in the voice mail) that i have not reported to the office for 2 weeks. They need to know why. If i do not show up next Monday, they will report USCIS that i am no longer their employee.

    From my understanding, I already have EAD in hands; and am legal in the US. What if they leterally report to USCIS as such, would i be out of status????

    I was thinking about trying to get a job and use EAD as soon as possible(at least before they have a chance to report to USCIS!) After that, whatever they would report to the USCIS wouldn't cause me any problems!!!

    Is my thought the right way to go?? Does anyone have any advise??? PLEASE help!!!!

    Would like to add more info..

    01/2003: Came to US(F1 visa)

    02/2006: Started dating with my USC husband in CA.

    06/2006: He moved to IL. I was on OPT (F1 at that time)

    10/2006: I relocated to IL, and moved in with my husband.

    09/2007: OPT ended. I went out of the US.

    10/2007: I came back to the US on H1B.

    01/2008: We got married.

    02/2008: We filed I130/I485 package to USCIS

    03/2008: Fingerprinting was done. I was still working for my employer on H1B. Unfortunately, the project that my company had with its client ended. So, the last cheque i got from them was until March 05, 2008. After that, i had to come back on bench to wait for the next project. I have reported to office everyday since then until the beginning of April.

    04/2008: I got AP and EAD in the mail.

    My anxiety about this is since I have not officially declared my status as 'AOS pending' by either traveling out of the US (using AP) or getting a new job(using EAD) and thus given up my H1B, my status is hazy. It would be clear cut if I can easily get a new job during the bad economy at this time so that I can just use EAD. Unfortunately, after i have been waiting for almost 2 months, I really do not know when i would get a new job on my own.

    I am not sure if my employer reports to USCIS that i am no longer their employer, I (as on H1B) would be out of status even though i already have filed AOS and have AP and EAD in hand.

    Or, because I have filed AOS and have AP and EAD in hand, I should just ignore them???

    Just ignore them..your employer can report u but it won't affect ur AOS status.

    K3 is getting divorced without a green card..

    in Effects of Major Family Changes on Immigration Benefits

    Hey guys! I have a question for you.. So the situation is the following..

    My friend and her husband met somewhere in Georgia( the country ), got married in Russia, she's Russian, he is from the States. So she got all the papers done in Russia and came here 3 weeks ago. Now her husband decided to divorce her all of a sudden, she cant get a ssn or a green card, she only has a state ID (AZ). What can she do about it? Any advice? She doesnt really wanna go home,'cause she's scared that people will judge her, and its such a shame for her.

    I would appreciate any help, she's so lost right now!

    i think her husband can't file a divorce case at early stage of marriage...unless they're both US citizen.
