Does having a valid social security number make me a US resident?

Harun Kazmi
Answered by attorney Harun Kazmi
Immigration lawyer at Kazmi & Sakata
No it does not. Historically, aliens could file and get a SSN. You need to determine your status and then you can apply for a driver's license or other work permit/visa.

What would happen next after I filed my status adjustment request with an immigration?

Fakhrudeen Hussain
Answered by attorney Fakhrudeen Hussain (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Law Offices of Hussain Gutierrez
If you brother files for you, it takes a minimum of 10 years before you are eligible to adjust status. You can only adjust if you maintain your status in the US. Your brother petitioning for you does not give you the eligibility to be in status, you will have to find other means to renew your permit or apply for an H1b visa, etc.

L1B RFE moved to H1B

Alan Lee
Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
As you presently have H-1B status and are contemplating a move to a different employer who will undoubtedly sponsor you for a new H-1B, you can transfer to the new employer upon obtaining a receipt of the new H-1B filing. The difficulty that you may have is the same as everyone who takes advantage of this rule since you will have left the approved employment for new employment which is not yet approved. If the H-1B transfer petition is denied, you would be out of status. If your new employer sponsors your green card process, you should not have to worry about the period of time that you received an RFE on your L-1B petition. After all, U.S.C.I.S. did approve your initial H-1B petition.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
