My wife's green card was approved on Feb 27th. My wife is currently in India with valid Advance Parole. I received her green card during March 15th. I am planning to visit India during June and bringing my wife along with me. It will be almost 5 months when I come back on July 1st week.
Will it create problem for my wife to re-enter to US? Since she has valid AP and GC card, can she enter without any problem? or does she need to come early since her GC was received ?

1) Since I140 never required the PD to be current how can one explain the backlog on I140 applications? They used to premium process those it in one month.
2) If 180 days pass since the I485 receipt date but I140 is not yet approved can one use AC21 safely?
(I understand the risk of having the I140 denied and being out of status. But aside of that... )
My understanding that the H1B cannot be ported once you have I140 pending without having to redo your I140 and I485.
The lawyers that created those laws must have been on something ...
Thanks

Hi All,
I am planning to paper file my wife's EAD renewal and AP for both me and my wife.
Questions:-
1. Can anyone who paper filed recently post information on filing EAD/AP
2. Since my wife filed for I-485 last year and paid $1010 fees,she falls under FEE WAIVER for both EAD and AP-I believe she can renew EAD/AP unlimited till she gets GC?
3. Can someone post what did they do additional for filing as FEE WAIVER?
Any detailed steps on paper filing with FEE WAIVER would be great.
Thanks in advance for your replies.
Regards,
everonh1

Did you contact them?What did they say?Did you receive any EAD or AP because some people receive those even before getting receipt numbers???
Yes, I contacted them several times. They only ask you to wait more.
I also have sent two emails to DHS, CIS Ombudsman's office. They asked me to use a Form 7001.
I sent the Form 7001 to CIS Ombudsman on Nov/07. I didn't even get a receipt confirmation from Ombudsman's office.
I was able to open a service request after 5 months of waiting, on Dec/07. I'm still waiting for a reply about the SR.
I faxed a letter to the service center.
Nothing so far.
It's seems like the package got lost (as well as my lawyer :p ).
I just wanted to show you that there is more people in the same situation from July.
Hang in there!
Best of luck.

If the H-1 was filed as a COS you will have to join the H-1 company on October 1, as you will no longer be on L-1 on that date. If you H-1 is filed for consular processing, then you dont have to worry, whenever you are ready you can go to the consulate in your home country, get a visa and come back on H-1b status.

Considering the state of the economy and considering that the most important poisiton to save is that of the primary applicant, I suggest that USCIS process cases of primary applicants asap.
Family members can contnue on EAD for long time; however if the principal applicant loses job and can not find another one, the entire family is done - pack bags and leave.
What do you think?
ssh --> I see from your profile your PD as 2001 and understand your frustration, waiting long. I like the idea what you has told... but not sure if it is practical.
Even I think, we need to ensure, the criteria for apply for EB immigration must be met @ the time the application is accepted. But after that, if the applicant status change in the interim, that should not jeopardize the entire applicaiton it self. With EB, they want to ensure, the status is met @ the time of approval, but given the present economic condition, any thing can happen, and hope USCIS, does not utilize this to penalize the law abiding legal immigrant folks for the delay by USCIS in processing application.
I'm not sure, The application eligibility should be verified/met at the time an application is accepted for processing and not @ approval is my view. But might not be acceptable to vast majority. Return the application immediately if criteria is not met, but not after many many years.

I recently started work with a new employer using my EAD. I have a pending RFE on my 485 which I have to respond to in a couple of weeks. However, today I noticed that my 485 got a soft LUD of the day following the day I started with my new employer. My new employer uses eVerify but I didnt expect that it could be linked with a pending 485. Maybe I am wrong but I see no reason for the USCIS to touch my 485 until I have responded to the RFE.
Has anyone else noticed something similar when you started with a new employer using eVerify?

Hi,
My H1B expired on sept 2009. My employer applied for my visa extension I received my approved 797 copy, but I 94 number on my 797 and passport are not matching. To explain further, when I first entered in US in March 2007 I got I 94 (ex: 123), when I last time entered in US in April 2008 I got I94 (ex: 456) which is my latest I94 number displayed on my passport. My latest H1B extension valid till sept 2012 is showing I 94 number issued to me when I entered in 2007 (123) instead of my latest I 94 number(456) attached to my passport.
Will this be a problem? I have to sponsor my in-laws visa so please guide me how this can be handled. Any help appreciated. Thank you very much in advance.
USCIS goes by what is called "last action rule". The last action was the extension issued after you came into the country, even though it has the 123 number on the I-94. So, you should be ok.

I have both EB3 and EB2 labor approved and EB2 I-140 approved for the same job requirement in the same company. Here're some details:
labor PD : 03/2005 (EB3)
labor PD : 12/2006 (EB2),
I-140 approved (EB2)
I-485 Applied : 07/2007 with approved EB2 I-140
Is it possible to use my EB3�s PD for my EB2 application? If so, what�s the procedure.
Thanks a lot!
You can get your EB3 PD. Your lawer needs to write to the USCIS to port your PD. Attorney here would give you more details and wait for them to respond.

If they'd only "fix" the Social Security Card to be more secure, I'm sure you'd reduce much of the illegal employment. the way the SS card is designed right now, anyone could print out as many of these on his home printer.

With so many proposals and so many amendments to the so many proposals (:rolleyes: ), which one would actually (or at least help to) eliminate the current backlogs (i.e., make the priority date current)? :confused:
We should make sure that any bill that potentially becomes a law will resolve the current retrogression issue (instead of making it worse).
So before we decide the bill to support, can anyone tell which bill will eliminate retrogression? Maybe we can categorize all the bills into the following types:
1. Will definitely eliminate retrogression if the bill becomes law
2. May eliminate retrogression or may make it worse if the bill becomes law
3. Will definitely make retrogression worse if the bill becomes law
4. Will have no impact on retrogression if the bill becomes law
:D

Currently i have my I-140 approved an that is all i know. To be honest, PD to me means "the day my I-140 was approved". Is that true??
My wife lives with me on H-4 and she will hopefully get an ITIN this year. Now, how i understand the system, i cannot file for I-485 petition until, the date of my I-140 approval becomes current. Please verify to help me understand this system. Thanks in advance.
PD = Priority date. That is the date that gets assigned to your case which is the date your labor/perm was filed or the date you directly filed I-140 if no Labor/Perm was required. You can only file your 485 once the visa date in the visa bulletin for your EB category is either current, matches your PD month or is a date later than your PD date.
One you file for 485, you can avail benefits like EAD a.k.a workpermit for you and your wife who can choose to use the work permit to avail any job. There can be an argument made that still keep working on your H1, but EAD helps spouses work legally who are otherwise on H4 and are not allowed to work.
Again check with an attorney for legal advice, this is just a nutshell of the process. Hope it helps

Thanks...I haven't worked with cap H1b before.
So it seems IMPOSSIBLE to change job from university to company since most companies won't help you apply H1B on April and wait 6 months (till Oct) to put you into work.

Thanks jsb..In that case, I am changing jobs even without working for my GC sponsorer. I heard that it could potentially lead to fraud case.are you sure we can do this or do u know somebody who has done this.
thx
AC21 guidance issued in the following link should clarify some of your concerns.
http://www.ilw.com/immigdaily/news/2005,0520-ac21.pdf
GC sponsorship is always for a future job. Until your GC approval, if you are working for the sponsoring employer, you are there as a guest worker (on H1B, L1 etc.). It will be fraud if it is established that sponsoring employer did not really intend to employ you, and you did not really intend to work for them as a permanent employee, upon getting your GC.
