9/13/2019 中秋节被雷,公司没钱了,做不下去,忽然被炒,当即生效,老板并且告知会给USCIS上报我被辞退的消息,不预留任何缓冲时间。意味着我的grace period 从9/16/2019开始算起,因为我最后一次的paystub是9/1-9/15.

经历了这么曲折的h1b transfer,真的如各大网友所说不可能假手给律师。我这次的律师已经给我办case好多年了,之前一路都是顺利批准,没有rfe过,所以这回申请拿到rfe我也就相信她没有要求看律师写的petition letter检查各项细节,但rfe后再来一个noid我就坐不住了,回复noid时我就要求她给我看她写的petition letter,那惨况简直是屎一样的存在,下面会慢慢说。
RECAPTURED TIME
具体做了如下两个表格(例子),说明我有多少天时间不在美国境内可以recapture的。并且打印了以前所有出境机票& CPB I-94记录。.google и

Job Duty 8 - Provide industry specific accounting services through reporting on the health of the network’s assets with semi-annual ASC 820 valuations (by FASB, Fair Value Measurement). (5% of weekly work hour)
Relevant Courses & Content
OPRE 6301 Quantitative Introduction to Risk and Uncertainty in Business: focuses on statistical and probabilistic methods and theory applicable to situations faced by managers. Topics include data presentation and summarization, fundamental probability theory and random variables, estimation, confidence intervals and hypothesis testing.
AIM 6332 Intermediate Accounting II: specific topic on applying fair value options in accordance with GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) rule with respect to the company's investment assets and appropriate classifications of gross realized and unrealized holding gains/ loss on financial statement presentations.
Service & Skills .
Our company evaluates investment portfolios at fair market value and review its changes semi-annually. The process to apply fair value measurement in accordance with GAAP is very technical. The key to this job duty is to correctly appraise asset value. OPRE 6301 discussed different valuation models that we also adopt for appraisal purpose. The beneficiary could (1) build and evaluate a regression model from raw data, (2) apply rules of probability and random variable, and (3) analyze significant changes of asset values at work. Within GAAP, ASC 820 is specifically relevant because it deals with accounting issues of investment assets valuation. Topic of fair value option for investment instrument (ASC 820) was covered in AIM 6332. By finishing this course, she is able to apply GAAP reporting standard of fair value changes, conduct income/ market/ asset approach for measurement, and perform a goodwill impairment test when the investment asset’s book value exceeds market value. She will report the fair value analysis to the management, so they could determine how to allocate fair value to various investment asset classes.. check 1point3acres for more.
8. Work sample – 这回我提供了对应其中4个工作jd的12个样本,每个jd相关的样本集中在一起有一个cover 分别解释每个样本是有啥作用。我把这个cover尽量控制在3段落,不要太长,把详细的作用解释出来就是了。Cover 实例如下:

Job Duty 6 - Establish chart of accounts and assign entries to proper accounts.
. check 1point3acres for more.
The roadmap is a high-level planning created by the senior accountant. It depicts the nature of business – commercial real estate leasing. The chart of accounts will be tailored to the roadmap.
When establishing the chart of accounts, she will consider GAAP rule and tax implications. For example, a commercial real estate includes CAM (common area management) receivables account that is unique in the business. The IRS requires lease commissions to be capitalized and amortized over the length of lease.
The chart will serve as a manual, and direct accounting clerk to post journal entries to correct accounts for all transactions.

我们一共给了移民局200多页的资料,啥都不解释就丢给他们一堆材料,难怪移民官会质疑甚至不批!各位尽可能让律师给你们看究竟他们的信是咋写的!因为这作用非常大,是通过律师的信把我们提供的资料串连起来,因为移民官不会慢慢研究每个doc是什么,所以我们就必须得解释出来各个文档的作用是回复哪个问题用到的,这样就方便他们审核我们的材料以免他们嫌烦不看资料就deny。还有必须得把关好律师组织的exhibit list,因为我就发现我律师给排序的材料非常混乱,有些还重复写出来,有些重要的就漏掉!
具体回复雇佣关系我就直接copy我起稿的律师信如下,说明哪个exhibit是回复移民局大官们的哪个疑点,并且指明官员们你应该看我们提供的exhibit中的哪一页,哪个paragraph,还有如果雇主信有某些点你是觉得很重要,也必须引用出来给移民官知道,生怕他们看错。
