I am not 100% sure but when you are on H1B should'nt you be working from where your LCA was approved for? In OP's case, its remote work but outside USA, in that case I am not sure
1. if the LCA filed will any longer be valid and that might cause issues with labor dept
2. what happens when USCIS finds out that you left the country and physically not present in USA and still running payroll in USA plus also the LCA is no longer valid, this might be an issue when your renewal comes up.
3.how your payroll can be run when you are not in the country?what are the tax implications? you need to have a physical address in US to file taxes, is'nt it? without an address in the specified location and specific state, you will be considered as non-resident.
when you file taxes as non-resident but a resident of a different country, then you will have to understand the tax treaties between the USA and the resident country and file taxes accordingly.
You might want to talk to an immigration attorney as well as someone who specializes in taxes(not just CPA, but an attorney who understands tax laws). I dont think this can be as simple as others mentioned. this is just my opinion and I could be wrong. talk to legal experts.
The answer to a simple question of whether you can work in a different country when you hold H1B is "YES".
Tax laws hold good for expats(people working outside USA) meaning the same rules would apply if you are living in one sate and working in another state (within the USA). Even in USA, LCA should be filed in every state that you are going to work(no exception), most of the H1 extensions get rejected because of LCA not filed at the client location. I am sure one will have check the tax laws even when you are working out of state(forget about out of country) and if you don't follow the tax laws you will be in a soup when IRS finds it out. Remember to take "Tax Breaks" when you claim expenses. You have to take a 21 business days break within the first year and 6 months break before the 2 years end and the cycle will be reset for Tax breaks. You have to be legally present in the USA to get your H1B extended. Attorneys are the best people to advise on the legal implications.

hi guys,
my first post at IV.
I got tired of waiting for my GC and so moved to UK last year on HSMP. After end of 11 months being in UK on HSMP, i filed for extension and received a 4 year "Resident Permit" in 2 weeks.
So in another 3.5 yrs, will be filing for 'Permanent Residency' and after another 1 year for Citizenship. :)
Here's another forum which i used and is VERY useful if anyone wants to move.
http://immigrationboards.com/viewforum.php?f=2&sid=631bece76663f12559e81641d0886c80
From my OWN experience:
The PROS
- Simple straight forward process :)
- definate timeline on residence permit/permanent residency/citizenship
- spouse gets same level of rights i.e.wife can work & study with any probs
- family eligible for NHS (even if u dont have a job)
- 1 month leave is standard; worst employers give only 4 weeks :p
- kids have fun, get 'british' education (including school uniforms) and most of all, my kids GK has expanded vastly (knows and hear more abt rest of the world)
- trips to Europe easy and inexpensive (weekend drive to paris is 2.5 hrs and approx 300GBP for family of 4 ;) )
- excellent public transport system
- India is only 8 hrs flight and timezone difference only 5 hrs.
- get to watch and 'play' cricket
- my british friends love "curry" and eat more 'spicier' then mine
- having a pint during lunch is 'normal'
The CONS:
- VERY expensive place; u make and u spend, have fun but not much savings
- JOB market is LOUSY - not easy to get a job
- Jobs are not as high paying compared to USA, plus u are expected to do more (bit like india)
- smaller houses, cars, roads, etc
- no real burgers or tacos
- after some time u start missing USA
Again, finding a job is very difficult and it does not pay as much as in US. But its not impossible either, i got one ;)
Cheers

I think i understand:) Thank you.
As I might have already mentioned, i've been working for a company for 2 years now with my EAD, they are willing to sponsor for H1B. so as long as my J principal has a waiver, then my company shoulnd face any problems on applying for a H1B right?
Could you please explain "As long as the H1-B quota is not exhausted and the petition was correctly filed". ? Is there a deadline to apply for H1B ?
i really appreciate your opinoins, thank you very much.
Talk to the immigration attorney your company is using. You (guys) do need a home residency requirement waiver to be eligible to work on H1-B. IIRC, the waiver has to come from both your home country as well as US. Anyway, I am not well conversant on J visas.
There is an annual 65,000 visa limit for H1-B visas. There is an additional 20,000 visas for M.S. degree holders in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) disciplines from US universities. Non-profit organizations and US universities are exempt from the quota limit.
The application time window for H1-B that takes effect on Oct 1, 2010 opens on April 1, 2010 (i.e., H1-B VISA starts from the start of the fiscal year, and application for that opens in the previous April). A few years back all 65,000 VISAs would get exhausted within a couple of days after the window opened (i.e., by April 3-4, all VISAs would be gone). AFAIK, the H1-B quota for 2010 (i.e., for H1-B VISAs that would start from Oct 1, 2010) is not yet exhausted. But it is always a very good idea to do the petition as soon as you can.

Looks like your PD is current. You might get your GC anytime. That is another factor I would consider if your GC gets approved before you get married.
Filing six months in advance seems to be a better idea.

There should be a way to appeal. Talk to your employer and attorney and get their advice. Until you get the paper/reason for denial, you may not get solid advice. But in the mean while, get all the documents ready, like pay stubs, tax docs, client letter, contract docs, etc... That way you will have all needed docs in hand and can appeal the denial as soon as you get the denial reason.
Are you working full-time or consulting? If it is consulting, then may the latest employer-employee relationship memo played its role.
Key is stay calm and consider every possible way. Your fellow IV-ians here can feel the pain that you go through. We wish your issue gets resolved quickly.

I changed my job recently , didn't talk about anything immigration, ead anything. Even when I asked , I told them "That will not be an issue, and nothing is required by the company to do for me". At the time of joining I gave my EAD and SSN. Thats it HR lady didn't ask anything just took the Photocopy of it and kept in the file.
I did not file AC-21 as well , though as part of the joining process without asking I as given the appointment letter, role and jobdesctription , which I can use as EVL. I think this is standard process which every company follows. So flow in the process and there should not be any issues. Also after making the offer the company cannot deny the offer because of EAD thats, the law. So wait and speak wisely till you get the offer letter.

I am assuming your lawyer meant that the H4 status could be reclaimed if necessary. As soon as one uses EAD the non-immigrant status gets lost.
Ok! God help me here.... My lawyer responded this morning that h4 is valid even after using EAD. EAD is only a benefit.
Now what is true? So much of information floating around and I don't know what to take and what not to!!!!!
Please help me, my husband also has no clue..

I don't know if it is mandatory rule but it definitely is a strong message from US Embassy in Canada. I registered for my trip to visit Canada in Oct 2006, but eventually backed out after reading this message. I don't know if the same message is still being shown or not.

Hi All,
I received the I-485 reciept notice yesterday from my lawyer (see below for my info), but the alien number on I-485 is different from the number on my approved I-140. My I-140 has a number starting with A099, but my I-485 reciept notice has a number starting with A088. Someone in this forum mentioned that A099 is for the primary applicant and A088 is for the dependant. I am the primary applicant for I-485, so if it is true, I should get A099, not A088. I am not sure if I can have two different alien numbers or if this is a mistake by USCIS. Is anyone in the same situation?
I am sorry if this issue is discussed previously (I couldn't find the related thread). I would greatly appreciate your input.
Thank you very much.

I don't think you are correct. Portability applies after 6 months of I140 approval. But you can not use AC21 for job profile / labor zone change. So, I don't recommend you changing job title.
You are wrong! Portability applies after 485 has been pending for more than 180 days.

(e) Retention of section 203(b)(1) , (2) , or (3) priority date. -- A petition approved on behalf of an alien under sections 203(b)(1), (2), or (3) of the Act accords the alien the priority date of the approved petition for any subsequently filed petition for any classification under sections 203(b)(1), (2), or (3) of the Act for which the alien may qualify. In the event that the alien is the beneficiary of multiple petitions under sections 203(b)(1), (2), or (3) of the Act, the alien shall be entitled to the earliest priority date.

In my case - which is little different than you since I'm actually transferring my job to a different subsidiary of the same employer with employer's blessing - attorney advised to file AC21 even though I had just received my GC. It sounds counter-intuitive but his logic behind it was as follows: USCIS will surely reject AC21 letter stating the candidate has already received GC. You can then keep this response in your file and use it to defend your case if there is any problem down the road (for example, during your citizenship processing) since you had informed USCIS and they themselves said it's not necessary. In case they do not reject your AC21 request you will still be fine since it means you invoked AC21 even though you got your GC so it should still be okay to switch before 6 months.
As always this is one attorney's personal opinion/strategy so please consult your own attorney before doing anything.

smuggymba, every one knows you are an anti immigrant. dont waste time here with fake posts.
Why should I make the fact gaps public and train anti immigrants like you ?
simple1 - whenever I see ur reply, it's regarding a toll alert. Same with ronhira guy. All you 2 two do is issue toll alert whenever someone asks a question.
H1-B audits are a reality and he is asking about a visit that he got because clearly no one expects it. What's the problem? What fact gaps did ur james bond brain find?
