Are there any fees that has to be paid when the amount is declared? And is this for visitors only?
There is no fees for bringing foreign exchange into India. It is applicable to all passengers irrespective of their nationality or purpose of visit to India. However no import of Indian money is allowed by non resident Indians / foreign nationals. Indian residents can bring in up to Rs. 7.500.
Wonder where I am getting these details? From Indian customs' site: Baggage Rules at a glance - CBEC (http://www.cbec.gov.in/travellers.htm)

i think its possible, but i guess you will still need to get a good attorneys advice on this one.
i am no bodys agent, my advice is only what i would have done if i were in your position.
Has anyone and their spouse both filed for 485s while listing each other as beneficiary as well?
Is this possible?

Why do you want to get the visa stamped for your old employer (Employer A)? The Chennai consulate will know that you have a newer H1B with a different company. Your attorney is correct in that joining Employer B as soon as returning from India shows false intent. USCIS could interpret that as fraud and you could be putting your GC at risk (this is just an extreme possibility - but anything can happen).
You should get visa stamp for Employer B when you are in Chennai. The embassy will only want proof of legal status in the US - not the paystubs from the company that you are going to work for (If that is the case - then no one will be able to come to the US for work on H1B - as they will not have any paystubs from the company that they are going to work for).
Couple of years back I was in a similar situation, I had already taken interview with the Chennai consulate and provided details of I-129, etc while taking the appt. However, 45 days before going to India, I changed my job and got H1 done through premium processing. I had to only fax details of my new I-129 and other documents to TTS (it was TTS at that time) and they made the relevant changes in the system. I went to the interview with only one paystub from new employer and the remaining from the old employer. At the consulate, the office asked me only for the latest pay stub. I asked him if he wanted the latest from old employer or the single one from the new employer. He said give me whichever is the latest. I handed over the single paystub from new employer and that was it. The total time in front of the visa office was less than 2 minutes for me and less than 30 seconds for my wife.
Don't complicate your case unnecessarily. Just get the visa based on the new H1B. The consulate will know about the new approval. If you lie to them, they will deny your visa. This might even prevent you from re-entering the US even if you have AP (since fraud is a valid reason to deny entry into the US).

The only reason I see the lawyer not applying with enotice, could be he was very busy.
Even my attorney did not file concurrently on 28th as it was last day for PP of 140 and her office was extermely busy applying PP on 28th.
I then walked on 29th and signed all 485 , and she said she will wait for receipt notice and then apply and then July2nd showed up and this fiasco.
Once I got e-notice of approval for 140 by email, I called up the attorney and she filed 485 one day before the announcement of July17th.
At that time she did not have Hardcopy of either receipt notice nor approval notice. So she filed with e-notice of approval.
Next day we got hard copy of approval notice. The receipt notice is yet to arrive in mail.
I hope this is ok. Otherwise 140 receipt notice is a initial evidence and app could get rejected and returned.
But it should return by Aug 17th . So still there is some time to act.
If I dont get receipt notice of 485 by aug 16th, I plan to apply duplicate 485 and say in cover letter that this is because of so and so.
Sad that 485 receipt is not emailed ? like 140 e-notice.

Of course you can work. Sometimes I worked extra 10 hrs/week and max I did was 20hrs/week. It is good to have more money than your LCA amount.
Is it legal to work overtime when you are on H1B? I have been working more than 40 hours a week ever since I got my H1B (about 5 hours overtime per week on average). They pay me time and half for the hours over 40.
The reason I ask is that I need to send a couple of paystubs as my parents are travelling to the US soon and I do not want the guy at the port of entry make a bid deal of my overtime hours (if he looks at it and finds out, which I doubt).
The person that stamps your passport and I-94 at the port of entry, is he an immigration officer or who is he? I am writing a letter for my parents to carry with them to show that person if asked for it and not sure who to address the letter. Thanks.

Thanks for the response.
So you are asking me to first threaten him by saying that I would take this matter to DOL if he does not refund me back. If matter gets really worse then and only then should I lodge a complaint against his firm? Am I right? If I have to complain, what is the procedure. I am just nervous. Please guide me.
And by the way how much do you think out of $1800,can I ask him to refund? And to just bring to your notice, he is saying this after 1 year. I can even ask him to pay me the interest for 1 year that he's enjoyed on my hard earned money. Right?
How do you think threating him would stand me a good chance to get my money back. It might even backfire by him not paying me anything (Right now he is ready to pay me something out of $1800 by talking to his finance dept.) and challenging me to the court. I am in India from last october and will be in India till coming October. I cannot agree to his terms of going to the court and all that stuff. And at the same time it should not impact my other H1 petition on which I already have VISA.
Sorry to put forth so many conditions before you. But I just want to be cautious and work out all pros and cons in my mind before executing it.
Your help & advice greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I am not sure if any reputed lawyer is going to be able help. The fact that you agreed that you worked in a gas station when you were not suppose to causes a problem for a lawyer make a case. I am hoping one of the lawyers on this forum would be able to guide you on this.
Good luck

This is what my attorney replied to a similar question.
------------------------------------------
From: Attorney
Your wife could get the shots now and hold on to the evidence and then we will submit it when we get the RFE. She could wait for the RFE but then if she has become pregnant again...... so best to get the evidence now and we can just hold on to it.
-----------------------------------------
Hope this helps.

If your last FP was more than 15 months ago, then write to local congressman, that usually works.
But would you get a notice or RFE or something like that....I am asking because i am my spouse both have recieved RFE's today....so wanted to assume something till we get the actual mail.
