If you file the extension before expiry of the current I-94, you will be OK. It can be approved even after the expiry. She will be considered to be legally present without gap, if extension is granted.

Hi Everyone,
I am on H1B with Labor approved about 2.8 years ago and I-140 approved for over a year ago.
I am July2007 fiasco filer of Indian origin.....in US for a some 13 years and I am Canadian citizen.
I have almost 2.5 years of H1B still left from my 3 year H1B extension.
I had EAD before but never used it, so my employer has not renewed it.
I am currently working on H1B.
I understand I am not allowed to work in my own business while on H1B, but I can have profit or loss from it......so it doesn't make sense to start a consulting business while on H1B in my opinion (correct me if I m wrong btw).
Starting a Consulting Business on EAD:
Now I want to start a consulting business in the same/similar field of my current job for which my greencard was applied and is still pending.
Please help me with the following:
Q1: Can I start the this consulting business while on EAD? Is LLC the best option?
Q2: Will it be then job portability from my current job to this new job in my company using AC21?
Q3: What conditions do I need to fulfill for working in my own company to keep my greencard alive?
Q4: What evidence do I need to keep handy to show USCIS if asked?
Q5: Am I supposed to inform USCIS when I do this job chnage?
Q6: Are there any minimum revenue requirements or do I have to pay myself same or more salary than my current job?
Q7: What if my business does not take off quickly and I can not pay myself same salary like my current job?
Q8: Can I apply EAD myself or I need my current employer to do so? I have the old expired EAD card that I never used.
Q9: I also don't have my job description from my labor certification. Is there a way for me to get it directly from USCIS?
Please advise. I thank you very much to help me out with this.....I know these are quite a few questions but I really need your help.
Thank you for your time and help.
Regards,

hi,
i entered the US on AP in Jan 2010, and at the time of entry, my I94 validity was set for
1 year (viz Jan 2011) - and the AP also noted "AoS" status on it.
(a) Is the validity of my I94 (and thus my legal stay) 1 year, or as i have read elsewhere,
if AoS is pending, then its valid till the AoS case is decided?
(b) If the validity is 1 year, what is the process for extending the I94 validity?
thanks for your time,
-andy
a. Yes, you are on valid AOS status.
b. No need to extend your I-94 as long as your AOS is pending.

Hello everyone,
Can anyone define who (what) are the nonprofit organization that would be the exempts for the regular H1-B Cap?
USIS's website says they are the "institutions of higher education or a related or affiliated nonprofit entity" or "a nonprofit research organization or a governmental research organization."
I understand colleges and governmental organization are included, but what else qualifies for this category? I mean there are millions of nonprofit orgs...from the one that does important research for a state to the one that helps promoting the US. film industry to the one that cleans up streets for free....I'm just so confused.
Any little help would be most appreciated.
Thanks!!

Hi ,
I filed for i-485 ON July 23rd along with the EAD and AP. My EAD got approved and got a RFE on AP. I haven't received my Finger Print notice yet. Will RFE on AP affect the FP?..
Is it normal that I haven't FP notice after almost closed to a month after the checks have been encashed?..
Any inputs are highly appreciated.
Thanks..

thanks for the comments guys. I hadn't thought about moving stuff around in photoshop.
didn't really plan the shot, was just screwing around with the zoom lense up on the deck.
