I what was the best/safe route to take on opt extension or h1b?

Alan Lee
Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
Where an individual has an H-1B filed on his or her behalf which states that the petition is for consular processing and not for change of status, the cap gap extension does not apply. Your college was wrong in informing you otherwise. It would not appear to be contrary to the rules for you to request a STEM extension under your circumstances. If the H-1B is approved and the petition was marked for consular processing, you would not receive a change of status. For the H-1B to go into effect, you would have to go outside the US for a visa interview and stamping. While cap gap extension should technically not apply in your case, a valid one will continue to be valid during the course of an RFE response up to the ending date of every cap gap extension, September 30.

I-485 and B2 Visa Question

Stephen Arnold Black
Answered by attorney Stephen Arnold Black
Immigration lawyer at The Law Office of Stephen A. Black
A US Citizen child over 21 can sponsor mom and dad for green cards if they entered the US legally. This is despite that both are or will be in overstay status. It is not uncommon that the checks for USCIS filing fees have not been cashed after 30 days. There are many backlogs at most field offices so remain patient.

There is a possibility that you may have a problem in traveling and going through a US port of entry. You may have to explain the situation in secondary inspection at a US port of entry. I assume that as long as the date and place of birth are the same on both documents, you will ultimately pass inspection, although there is a chance that there could be a lengthy wait in secondary while CBP checks your immigration history.
