NOID
NOID (Notice of Intent to Deny) is a notice the government issues when it intends to deny a pending case and gives us a last chance to present evidence and arguments why it should not be denied.
H1B Transfers Amidst Fraud Allegations
Can I transfer to a third employer if my current H1B portability petition received a NOID alleging fraud?
It is very difficult. Because the second petition (the "bridge") is failing, an approval within the US for a third employer is unlikely. You may need to travel abroad for a new visa stamp, but be aware that fraud allegations are serious and can lead to a permanent bar from the US if not cleared.
Marriage-Based Interview Preparation
How should we prepare for a marriage-based adjustment of status interview?
Prepare to explain the choice of adjustment of status over consular processing, focusing on convenience. Note that unauthorized work can lead to denial; if denied, a Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID) usually provides time for a response.

I-130 and I-485 approval for the second husband of a green card holder, who obtained her own green card through marriage
In this case, the petitioning green card holder filed forms I-130 and I-485 for her second husband, whom she had been married to for less than five years since obtaining her lawful permanent resident status based on her first marriage, which was to a U.S. citizen. That marriage ended in a divorce.
