Hi,
I have been searching a lot for the H4-H1 cases and have come across the following responses from my lawyer.
My wife has an H4 from my previous company expiring in July end 2007.
I have a new approved H1 petition from my new employer approved till Aug 2008. The new employer did not apply for my wife's H4 transfer petition.
I am now applying for my wife's H1 and I had queried from the lawyers if I need to do the following :
a) Do we need to apply for my wife's H4 extension now to my current employer.
RESPONSE FROM LAWYER : NO
b) Do we need to apply for the extension for my wife's H4 visa, since it is ending last week of July 2007.
RESPONSE FROM LAWYER : NO
I am not sure if I am getting the correct responses from my company's lawyer.
I think my wife is going to go out of status if my company does not apply for her H4 extension. Is that correct ?
Also, if her H4 is only valid till July end 2007, will the INS issue her an H1 based on this ? Will my wife be forced to leave US from Aug onwards if her H1 petition is pending with the INS?
I would be very thankful if you could respond to these statements from my lawyer and advise.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Folks,
The "Time as Resident in a USCIS District" clause in the naturalization process says that "Most people must live in the USCIS District or State in which they are applying for at least 3 months before applying".
If you have gone thru this process could you please tell if this means that
a. the person must have stayed for at least 3 months during any time during of the residency period to be eligible to apply in that district
OR,
b. the person must live in the district for at least 3 months immediately preceding the naturalization application (for example, if applying in July 2010 then must be present in that state/district at least since Apr 2010)
The reason I'm asking is that I know people who live in India after GC and then come return to get citizenship...so wondering how it worked...
