Dear despoimmigrant:

Can you mention the page number in AINP003 form which was missing? I am sure you filled AINP 003 form as you are under old process.

Hi Albertagoverner and others,
I sent my application two weeks ago. I have been working with my employer for 3 years and my H1 expires this September ending. Based on the processing times now, do you suggest renewing my H1B to be on safe side for AINP to consider my application?

I do not like to stay in USA anymore and I want to settle in Alberta. So I personally do not wish to get it renewed (I thought why unnecessarily giving a task to my employer and not sticking with him later. I want to be in good terms with him so he can help with my future references in Alberta).

Thanks for all your time.

Right now set your goal till Nomination Certificate and then you can apply from Home Country for CIC process. You should try to renew it and I am sure you will find great difficulty to renew because nowdays USCIS and State Department's Consular officers in Abroad are trying till their last breath to not stamp, renew H1B.
As far as references are concerned, None of us will face much difficulty in terms of employment, reference etc because every recruiter, Hiring Manager in Corporate Alberta is aware that H1B SRS program is bringing techies from US who have been working well. Also A lot of tech consulting companies in Alberta are accepting 1 797 with a employer as a reference. No other reference can be more genuine than USCIS issued I 797 with a employer in USA

My reply : Yes.





Why are AINP guys asking people under old process about current status of H1B visa.

I assume that as he called me already for missing page he might have thought better to ask this question. Or may be he is not aware of Old processing. Actually i am not aware of it as i just joined this forum today. Can someone explain what just happend with old and new process?
