I've received very good advice from IV members and hope to get this one sorted out here. My in-laws passed away within the last 2 years and wife's younger sister is stressed out. To cheer up we plan to bring her to US for 2 months. Her visa may get rejected for these reasons. No strong family ties in India since the parents passed away. She is an engineer (non-IT) but not employed and she is unmarried and no other siblings in India.
However she is a partner is her father's business and can show the documents as a proof.
What's the best way to get apply for visitor visa
1. I sponsor her visit, by sending bank statements, pay slips and employment letters etc.
2. She applies on her own and show her partnership documents, bank statements etc..
3. She goes through a travel agent like SOTC and book 10 day sightseeing trip and after which she could join us.
Obviously her sister being in US and no parents back home is a big red flag but we can't change that situation.
Any advice will be much appreciated.

Hi All,
Please take couple of secs to finish this poll. No matter what was your case for interview..extension, renewal, first time..when was H1/H4 etc approved..where it was approved..etc etc..nothing matters. All that needs to be tracked is wait time.
As long as New Delhi consulate please do this and this will give an idea for wait times.

Here's my case
(EB3-I I485 filed & pending, got married after July 2007 episode and missed filing I485 for my wife.)
So, cannot use EAD during these transitions and continuing H1 filings & extensions...
My current H1b is expiring on Sep 30 2010, I 94 expires on Oct 09 2010 (I know the officer at DFW POE was kind enough to give expiry 10 days beyond petition exp date).
My current company filed for normal extension during 3rd week of Sep 2010.
Now I got job offer from another employer, who wants me to join from 11 Oct 2010 or I can ask them to advance joining date to 06 Oct 2010 (to rule out the possibility of being out of status). They are ready to do H1B premium. (They claim their track record is good, & they get very minimal denials)
Did anyone face this situation?
Also, once the new employer's H1B is filed, does it come with I-94 cards in the petition notice? (If not, I would have to go out & get stamped, don't I?)

I do not see a forum where to post about employers. Please move if this is not the place for this thread to be in.
The following blog post illustrates how desi employers treat when a consultant leave the company. Please do not think that I left without reasons. They threatened me a lot while I was with them.

The last few months have been extremely challenging for H-1B applicants as the Department of Labor iCert program for filing Labor Condition Applications has proven to be deeply flawed. Gone are the days of instant LCA approvals. Now, applications routinely take at least a week to approve and a high percentage of applications are being rejected because of problems with the DOL software. Frequently, applicants need to file an application immediately to remain in status, but USCIS requires an approved Labor Condition Application be included with the application. The USCIS' Ombudsman has weighed in recommending USCIS revisit that policy. Instead,...

My friend has his I-485 filed and has got EAD/AP, but the priority date is so behind, that he has no chance of getting a green card before his marriage. So, as I understand he should be able to bring his wife on H4 (as long as he maintains H1). My question is: does he have to re-file for I-485 to include his wife and if so will the priority date remain the same as the first application?She needs to file her own I-485 but only when PD become current. She has the same PD as primary applicant.

Rising tensions are testing Reid-McConnell relations (http://thehill.com/leading-the-news/rising-tensions-are-testing-reid-mcconnell-relations-2007-06-14.html) By Manu Raju, June 14, 2007
Tensions are set to rise between the two parties in the Senate in coming weeks, threatening to stifle the Democratic legislative agenda and test the amicable relationship between Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and Republican leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.).
After the collapse of immigration legislation last week over procedural concerns, rhetoric has been heating up. Democrats increasingly blame McConnell, who is up for reelection in 2008, tagging him as an obstructionist. The GOP stuck that same label on then Minority Leader Tom Daschle (D-S.D.), helping defeat him in his reelection bid in 2004.
Some conservatives, upset that the immigration bill came to the floor without committee deliberations, grumble that McConnell is not combative enough with Reid and should challenge anything that does not follow regular Senate order, aides to two conservative senators say.
That could unhinge the cordial relationship between Reid and McConnell, which both say remains strong despite burgeoning battles.
�This has not been an easy six months,� said Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.). �I think our friends on the other side of the aisle have wished to slow things down as much as possible with over and over again motions just to even go to a bill.�
Republicans accuse Reid of employing procedural tactics in an unprecedented way to bring legislation to the floor without committee debate, to limit amendments on the floor and to end debate on legislation.
�I don�t know if he understands the difference being a leader and being a dictator,� conservative Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) said.
Next week, Reid wants to bring to the Senate floor a bill passed by the House that would make it easier for labor unions to organize workforces, aides say. The bill, long-sought by labor but opposed by business, has not gone through the Senate committee process. Republicans plan to object to the bill�s consideration, forcing Reid to find 60 votes if the measure is to be considered in the narrowly divided Senate.
Even if the Senate reaches that threshold, Republicans may object to a unanimous consent request to waive 30 hours of debate to proceed to the bill. Doing so would mean debate on the bill would dominate much of the week, which Reid, with scarce floor time and a packed agenda before the July 4 recess, wants to avoid.
Jostling over process reflects the parties� hope of framing political debate in the run-up to the 2008 elections, analysts say.
�I think Reid is ultimately � looking ahead to �08, to shape the party�s reputation as much as his own reputation,� said Sarah Binder, senior fellow in governance studies at the Brookings Institution. �How well the Democrats do in part is going to do depend on what Democrats do in Congress, and he can blame Republicans [for] creating stalemates.�
Republicans point out that Reid has filed 39 cloture motions to limit debate or proceed to legislation this Congress, which is on pace to shatter the 68 cloture motions filed in the entire 109th Congress.
�[B]The actions of the majority leader in filing cloture so many times this year takes the Senate out of its traditional role and it brings it more towards a House model, where debate is constricted,� said Brian Darling, director of Senate relations for the Heritage Foundation.
Two efforts to shut down debate on immigration failed last week after Republicans objected that too few of their amendments were considered during the Senate debate. Republicans complained that the Senate could have moved quickly and finished the immigration debate if Reid had tabled amendments or allowed many of them to be considered simultaneously. Reid retorted that Republicans were objecting to their own amendments and would not agree to a set number of amendments that could be considered.
When the immigration bill fell apart last week, McConnell said, �The message to the majority is, it�s going to take longer than you�d like to take, and it�s going to take more votes than you�d like to make. I think they have had to relearn that lesson several times. That is the reason this Congress, at least to this point, has such a paltry list of accomplishments.�
Reid shot back this week, saying his frequent use of cloture has been made necessary because of Republican obstruction.
McConnell �failed to mention that we have to do that because we�re not able to do anything without cloture,� Reid said. �On the most basic bills we did � lobbying ethics reform, minimum wage, 9/11 � everything that we�ve had to do, we have to get 60 votes first. So they�ve made it very difficult for us.�
