Amazing progress NSC from July 04 - > July 05 :D

I-485

TSC --- June 27, 2007
NSC --- July 05, 2007

:mad:

Unfortunately, your entry doesn't qualify because you are using box2d :(

Really cool entry though!

Infopass IIO's are not the best in terms of reliability of their statements ...or actually opinions !

Most of them refer not the Feb 08 memo (180 day +) but the one that has given the timeline for Name Check backlog elimination !

see this one:

Thanks for everyone who replied.

What about 485 filing date? Will it be cosidered July 2nd, 2007 or whatever future date I will "interfile"?

Any experience holder?

Thanks,

I have been filling up I-485 all day . Online forms sent from attorney but no help with topics. I am confused by these

Visa Number - is this a number that is stamped on your passport when u entered US? My visa in passport expired long time back. I have my WAC number- is that what is required to enter?

Alien Number - is this the I-94 number?

anywhere i can find a sample I-485 filled in ?

Appreciate any help

I'm confused with these too. I asked my lawyer and he told me not to worry about it right now. Just fill the other details.

Besides LUD on my approved I-140 on 7/13/08 (approved in 2/06), there were LUDS on H1B(approved 3/03, extended 9/05) on 6/28/08 and LUDs on I-485 (filed on 07/02/07) dt 5/23, 6/18, 6/25/08. Anybody seen recent LUDs on I-140+I485+I-129 BTW my pd is 10/05, EB2i Still waiting for magic mail. May lady luck smile on us. I have LUD on 140 for 7-13, on 485 application for 08-04

I am planning on taking an interview date in Delhi. I read that for mumbai, you have to drop your docs 1 week prior to your appointment. Can anyone explain the procedure for Delhi, please?

I am still waiting for it to show the availablity. But I got HDFC receipt from India.

Once date is shown- I will apply for non immigrant visa on the website. Now will they ask me to put my petition info (I-797) at this time? Or I will just fill in DS 156 and DS 157 forms??

Once I fill in the forms (with bar code), I will have to take them along in the interview. Is it true?? Or I will have to drop out my docs. at VFS location even for Delhi consulate????

Please help ppl...this stamping ordeal is taking toll on me now...alas! I was born earlier ;):p

This right here is one area I REALLY need to improve in.

I get home from a show (or whatever I've shot), and can't pick my photos for my editor.
I am ALWAYS so afraid somebody else is going to see and/or like something in a shot that I might not be seeing. I usually end up sending in too many photos.

I'm probably the most undecisive person in the world:o

I had a rfe on my 140. About a degree from Bombay University. After the reply within 48 hours my case was approved.



Hi all,

I received an RFE on my I-140. I responded to NSC last week with what was requested in RFE. NSC acknowledged receipt of my response. How long do you think it would take for them to take a decision on my case (non-premium process).

gchopes

Same thing with me. My priority date May 3rd, 2006. I got EAD renewal email today.



Hello Folks,

I'm Aug-2005 EB2-I.

Haven't received my GC yet.

I think, based on various experiences mentioned here, opening a SR, taking local immigration office appointments, etc is a way to get USCIS to look at your file.

I also read, if there was a pending EAD renewal, your case might get looked at and instead of renewing your EAD, USCIS will rather give you GC - provided PD is current and there are no other issues.

I know none of these 2 things have a documented backing...apart from people's experiences (which, I value a lot - don't get me wrong there).

My EAD was also up for renewal - filed in June. Got the "card production ordered" e-mail @ that yesterday. And, no change on the AOS case.

So, should I take other steps @ my AOS case - like, opening a SR, taking IO appointment, etc ?

Thanks

Folks, please help:

I had submitted both parents' affidavit along with my 485. Now i got RFE with only 3 weeks to reply. My name and DOB is diff in my BC so it's of no use and they won't issue NABC. I recvd BC from consulate and i am going to submit it along with a copy of my 10th grade leaving cert.

My questions are:
1. Can USCIS deny 485 solely due to lack of BC/NABC ? if yes then What are the chances of denial ?
2. If the officer does not think that consulate BC is enough, will they deny 485 or issue another RFE?
3. Do you know anyone whose 485 was denied simply for no BC/NABC reason?
4. My 485 was (wrongfully) denied few months ago when my ex revoked the approved I-140, could this affect the future processing of the case -vely (i hope not) ?

Thanks in advance.

I can not say on on Q1 or Q3 but for Q2, I am told by attorney USCIS does not entertain BC from consulate or BC issued by school board.

Hi Bluez good luck buddy. I think you are safe even dates become unavailable in coming month. My interview has been scheduled for Aug 26 at Delhi Consulate. Hey please update us with all the details and one more thing can you give me the format of PCC as I think you are also going to get it from local police station.

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaH...Welcome to D.C. Thanks for posting all the encouraging words to get everyone to come!

:) Will see u all tomorrow, I am sharing room with Naveen (tnite) - what time do u all get there in the morning?

I-485 pending with PD June 07 & valid EAD
Is it possible to apply for FAFSA for student aid as they require Green Card or US citizenship?
I see on FAFSA website one catagory as eligible non-citizens which includes applicants with I-94 & with atleast 1 yr parole validity.
Is this the same parole as I-131?

Congrats and thank you for your contributions. Do visit IV to continue your support and offer answers to members. We want more GC members so that in the coming future we can launch an effort on items that help in citizenship. For example, time for citizenship be counted from the date of I140 approval. There can be others if we have more GC members and we all brainstorm on ideas.

Hi,

Don't fret about the PERM time lines. It can take anywhere from 1 month to more than 6 months (for Fragomen clients) for PERM approvals/denials. Mine was filed in May and I also had to reply to an audit.

In your case because your PERM was applied more than 365 days before your 6th year H1 expires, even if you PERM approval doesn't come until Jun 09, your employer can file for a 1 year extension.

Now, I am not very sure about this scenario in case of a PERM denial. Maybe someone else can comment on that one.

Thanks.

Hello Freinds.

After a long wait of 8 years today i got an RFE i don't know what the RFE is all about and will be waiting to get the letter in the mail, do you know how much time does it takes for the paper RFE to come to your lawyer.

RFE was issued today but unlike the email which i got says the status on hold, thats strange

Current Status: REQUEST FOR INITIAL EVIDENCE SENT, CASE PLACED ON HOLD

is this normal or is this is an indication of something wrong and bad.

Please do advice gurus


Best Regards

Saburi
Saburi,
Did you recieve your RFE?. Please share the details so that we can have an idea of what types of RFEs are coming from USCIS.

Hi All,

I need urgent help and suggestions for my situations..

I have been working with company A since March'2006. They applied my GC processing with substitute labor of Nov'2004 and got I-140 approved.

In July'2007 applied I-485 which is pending for myself and my wife as well.

EAD card has arrived recently with 2 years of validity till Oct'2010 both for myself and my wife. AP is also approved recently.

With all this I am still on H1-B until 11/15/2008. Since it is going to expire, I have asked my employer to file for my extension.. They came up with very vague options and questions which I have posted down in bold with 1 and 2.

1) We have filed your PERM application for the new position which qualifies for EB2. Please note that since you have an approved I-140, have filed your I-485 and have an EAD card, we will no longer need to maintain your H-1B status. Instead, we will withdraw your current H1 and save the remaining H-1B time left on this H1 for use in the future (if the need arises).

OR

2) If you wish to maintain your H-1B status, then (since your position has changed and we have filed a new PERM application on your behalf), we will need to amend your H-1B visa. Please complete the attached questionnaire at your earliest convenience and revert to me with a copy of your latest I-94 card. Please note that this is not an extension and so there is no need to file the H4 extension for your wife/family.

Please advise which option you want to go with. I strongly recommend option #1, but it is entirely your choice if you want to go with option # 2 and maintain your H-1B status. Please let me know how you want to proceed with your H-1B status.

If anybody come acrossed similiar type of situation or experienced already let me know and this would really help in taking the decision.

It's very emergency..

Thanks,
Raj.

Did you find out from your employer why they refuse to extend h1b , if you have pending 485, then you can still get a 3 year extension.

Talk to them and find out why they are against extending h1b, may be it is their ignorance, or are they worried about paying the extension money i believe which is like 300$, in your best interest it is good to extend h1b than to use EAD...

I guess USCIS will use whitepages.com soon for verification of address.

There is a lot of negativity about H1b - immigrants etc... on the internet by hate groups and also there is a tendency that negative news is a influencing factor. This is the cause of concern.

These references are from the statement made on 24th June 2009. Nothing after that !!!!!!!!!!
:rolleyes:

Please do post it.
I will also follow up with my lawyer.

Thanks
