I believe one will be eligible for SS after attaining 40 credits. There is no residency requirement. WRT 401K, you might ending up paying a penalty of 10% in addition to 30% tax.

Another front to think about :
Recently I have heard that when the company publishes advertisement for the labor when filling for fresh PERM, every time there is a response coming back because of the higher rate of unemployment in the market. The issue is, if any response comes back then the company cannot proceed with the labor and new GC process gets hung.
So, to be on safer side just check on ur skill set before resigning the current job as it should not be readily available in the market.
You have added important point for consideration. Thanks!

What is AILA complaining about?
The fee increase? really??:D
or Increased business that they are getting because of RFEs or that USCIS has become efficient and has pre-adjudicated most of the waiting applications by interviewing, RFEs and actual site visits.
Oops! Did I just say that. My bad! Sorry! I should probably have said "Naughty USCIS!!!" USCIS is closing files that AILA wants to remain open forevverr so that the juice keeps flowing.:D
AILA - consider rephrasing your statements these are too transparent. And ... Speak for yourself.
READ THIS:
We the immigrants (customers of USCIS) are perfectly fine with RFEs and interviews and site visits as long as it leads to PRE-ADJUDICATION and green card. Most of us don't even mind paying extra to end this wait. If AILA is really concerned about us please try to do something in that direction so that we can get relief by recapture or thru new legislation or admin fixes.

Hmmmm - laws are generally framed with generic thumb rules. They cannot be addressed to specific stuff. Visass and restrictions are based on needs and demands and not moods and whims. If USA needs software engineers, then they frame laws to get software engineers - they do not target consulting companies - remember it is we who have issues with consulting companies and it is upto those having issues to deal with them
But if they want CIR then we cannot be on anti immigant side. If we sit on anti side we loose what ever we will get in CIR. We can educate lawmakers to add more stuff for us in CIR. I dont think we can be priority when this CIR things will start.. we had only chance for last year that we lost. ( HR 5882 ). As CIR storm begins in next year it will be in our favor to go with it.. ( I dont tihnk so we even have choice ). we are in such minority against illegal people that hardly they will notice us but becasue of business ( Corporate ) only they will add some stuff for us. I heard recently on NPR ( and on CNN ) china is back on sending student again. US unis giving more visas to raise money from fees so NAFSA will also try to add some for US educated.

Yes things are really bad. You are lucky that your company is even willing to consider filing eb2 other companies are not even filling willing to file eb3 perm. They dont want to apply any perm at all. On an average DOL is taking 9 months to approve perm, if it eb2 there is a good chace of getting audited and that will takes a couple of years.
As far as I know the business necessity statement is required whenever you apply for a Eb2 requirement (MS or bachelors+5) when according to DOL the job does not require a EB2 (basically the position you are applying for perm does not require EB2 but requires eb3 according to DOL but you are saying this position requires eb2 and not eb3). almost all jobs in IT according to DOL do not fall under EB2 they fall under Eb3, so every eb2 perm has a very good chance of getting audited. This situation has been further worsened by the economy and also the line cutters who try to jump from eb3 to eb2 by reapplying. DOL has caught on to this abuse just like they caught up with the labor sale(labor substitution) and abolished labor substitution. Similarly DOL is cracking down on any eb2 perm especially those who are reapplying. Before someone asks how does dol know you are trying to jump line by reapplying in Eb2, DOL knows because of the following information they ask in ETA form
"1. Are you seeking to utilize the filing date for a previously submitted application for Alien Employemnt Certification (ETA 750)?"
"1-A. If Yes, enter the previous filing date"
"2-A. "Indicate the previous SWA or local offiice case number OR, if not available, specify the state where case was originally filed:"
Nope! this is just some mis-information floating around - the question in the perm application form was useful when perm came into existence and was specifically for people who had traditional recruitment cases (remember TR) or RIR for that matter rotting in backlog reduction centers and who wanted to "upgrade" to better faster perm labor process and keep the same priority date

Hi All,
I applied for my 485 on June 30th 2007, It reached USCIS on July 2nd. On July 2nd morning USCIS announced that all applications will be rejected because there are no VISA numbers. Considering that I went to Mexico on July 12th and got my H1 stamped. Today USCIS has announced that it will accept applications through 8/17/2007.
My question is: In my 485 app. I entered my old I-94# and VISA #. Since I went to Mexico and got my H1 stamped and entered US my I-94 and VISA #'s have changed. Will this be an issue?
I heard that USCIS will verify my status using the I-94 on the 485 form before issuing a 485 reciept. In which case my old I-94 would show that I have left the country & USCIS can abondon my application!! Is this true? Has this happend to any of you?
Please advise.
Thanks,
Nachi
You should seek legal advice. you are correct in saying that at POE they need to know that you had applied for 485 so that when they issue I-94, your filed petition is still vaild and not considered abandoned.

Whatever problems you have today :- RFE, NOID, TAXES.. You have 4 weeks to 12 weeks time.
For the most important task today, you have barely a few hours left. So leave everything else for tomorrow and it would not be too late.
If you don't call today it would be too late.
...it would be "years and years" late if we don't call today!

Of course, I am assuming your previous status was H-4. If it was F-1 or something else, I don't know if you have valid permit to return to that status
I was on F1 visa. I had my OPT valid up to the 15th of Jan. 2008. My consultant filed for my H1B to begin from the 1st Oct. 2007. For any one in my situation (F1 to H1B), please do not let go of your valuable OPT time, in lieu of H1B, how much ever influential the consultant is (in terms of getting you a project). They would always want you to begin at the earliest so they can be assured of your services with them. Make sure they put down your begin date, only after the last date of OPT period on the H1B documentation.
So, in my situation, I do not have a valid reason to re enter the US. That is why I want to get my visa transferred over here. Considering I do not have pay stubs, a lot is dependant on my fate, I guess. Thanks for your reply.

Stop whining man.... What was done by whom and blah blah is not gonna make a difference... Look at the future.....Just so you know, I am MS holder from US too and I am least bothered by someone getting GC with BSc.... With the same token 1000s of people are getting GC just because their sister or brothers are in this country....and trust me ...Many of them are not even highschool grads.....So just get on with your life...
Lastly, You came here as a student for studies I suppose or for getting GC? if you wanted to get a short cut to GC by being student for 2 yrs then thats a pity

Yes.
I think you can take classes (online or even regular in-class) as long as you maintian your primary H1B status - i.e. continue to work with the employer on the specified job/number of hours etc.
(note: I am not a lawyer)
If you are taking online classes, why would your status matter?? i understand you need to have legal status to take regular (in-class) courses, but dont really feel an online university would really care. when you can pretty much log in from any where in the world, why would they worry about you being here illegally?
just my opinion.

Plus, H1B is debated and decided upon (pro-H1B's are quite happy as-is), EB has not been debated at all.
And when they vote, they may delete the H1B from the cap-removal and retain the GC, which will be just fine for us. We should support this amendment. It might go through after some changes.

All,
so Please dont jump at this rule , think about it its good for us , I m sure guys who filed their labor late 2007/early 2008 will be thinking oh what happens if July 07 happens again , but trust me thats very unlikely ..Also your 140 will be approved way a head before you apply for 485.
On the Postive side ...Even if July becomes current , people are still good to apply concurrent. Because this rule will come into effect only from Aug.
Cheer up.

Your next step would be to copy this and post it in anti-immigration site. Go ahead.... I have seen my suggestion being copied and posted in anti-immigration site.
Thanks for finding this out. Anyway, who in hell would file for a labor certification when companies are laying off. As per the rules companies cannot apply for labor certification for 6 months from last layoff.
Don't try again

I went in shorts/t-shirt for my H-1 renewal in chennai this jan 08. They don't really care...
I/O asked me what do i do in my company... Gave her the response.
she said "sounds interesting and fun".. thats it... Hardly 2 mins. For most of the guys who live in the u.s and going to india for a vacation you should be if you dress decent...
Don't worry...
Just answer the question I/O ask you...
There were lots folks from Infosys, TCS with full tie and formals and sweating.
