Thanks Ray and Kondur for your replies.

So my understanding is that if I file for CP then I would be asked to interview in home country for my GC and it could take long once again if it gets stuck in name check.

But if I wait for H-1 name check clearance then I could enter to US and apply for I 485 and even if it takes longer than 6 months, I would get I 185 approved.

The thing is I am not sure how long it would take to get my name check clearance so I am thinking of CP.

Another thing is that I am on unpaid leave for last 3 months. My company let me worked for first 6 months remotely but then asked me to take unpaid leave. Would it be an issue when I go for interview for CP. Let's assume that if I get interview for CP after a year, wont they ask that I am not working for my current company so why are they doing CP for me.

And one more thing how long does it take generally to get interview once a person has applied for CP ??

I am so confuse and cursing myself why did I leave US. My apartment, my car , my belongings every thing is back in US and I am stuck here :-(

The true value of an MBA lies in the contacts you make when you go to school. An online MBA IMHO is of no real use in terms of your career.

After a long 5 years I finally received 485 case approved letter for both my case and my spouse's case. However the online status still shows pending. Is this common?. How long would it take for the online case status to be updated.

Hmm.. let us think through this(may seem crazy). Is there anything called "dual permanent residency" ? I don't think so. Yes, there is dual citizenship - but that has to follow permanent residency in those countries.The permanent residency of one of the countries has to be lost if you spend 183 days in the other country. Well, assuming that one would retain his GC after all this trial and tribulation, just surrender the Canadian PR and be a normal guy with a GC; no problem at all !! (Hope the canadian pr surrender doesn't take a decade, just like getting a GC).

Your H1-B does not matter. What matters is LC for your I-140. It sounds like you want to use AC21 portability. EAD allows to work for any employer(s), but you have to make sure your I-140/I-485 is intact.

what painter program?

What I am looking for is how do they physically transfer the application? I am afraid of dealing with another incompetent organization such as USPS. Also, what type of processing delays should I expect?

How recent were the guidelines that I-485 be sent to the same center as I-140? Were these guidelines applicable on July 2nd.

I do not know about the guidelines but these FAQs were released a few days ago(definitely after July 2nd).

Your question about how do they physically transfer applications is just very stupid. Just think about it. Your lawyer made a mistake and you want to blame USPS or USCIS for it? Nobody can tell you for sure their method of transferring applications. I dont think you have any other option but to wait.

You left your EX-EMPLOYER in May 2008 and also transfered your H1B to NEW Company.

So tell me what is remaining beteween you and your ex-empoyer???
So he cancelled your H1B and also your I-140 later.
Also Why you did not work with ex-employer after getting a project? You knew that your I-140 was pending right?

Never Mind. Congratulations !!!

VD I love that one...

I usually end up going towards the left myself

I see the following in the USCIS website:

"Filings made Pursuant to Visa Bulletin No. 107: As previously announced, all forms I-765 and I-131 applications based on employment-based adjustment of status applications filed pursuant to Visa Bulletin No. 107 that are submitted on or before August 17, 2007 must be filed under the fee structure in place prior to July 30, 2007. On or after July 30, 2007, those applications may not be electronically filed and must be submitted to a Service Center via regular mail or courier service."

Can somebody clarify this please? I applied 485 during the July 2007 fiasco and want to renew my EAD now? Can i e-file with $340 fee?

You can definitely efile. I did not apply for EAD with my I-485 during July VB fiasco, but I efiled with the new filing fee in September 07 and got it approved in 2 months.

My I 140 got approved in 2006. And my lawyer got approval notice. He also gave me copy of it. I just registered my I 140 case number on USCIS site. I was stunned to find out the status that
Current Status: Notice Returned as Undeliverable.

On September 19, 2006, the post office returned the notice we last sent you on this case I140 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR ALIEN WORKER as undeliverable. This may have serious effects on processing this case. Please call 1-800-375-5283 to update your mailing address for this notice to be re-sent.

I immediately contacted my lawyer. He said that Since He have original approved copy of I140 , I should not worry about it.

I tried even contacting IO. But IO told me that regarding I140 only employer or attorney can call to discuss further. She didn't give me any answers.

Gurus what you think?

Jay Pradhan rockssssssssssss

You were one of them, if I remember right..
However, I appreciate the rest of your post. It makes a lot of sense. We should talk only about things that benefit EB community. Leave things like this to the anti's.

When anti's strike, we should counter-strike by saying: So solution is, grant GC etc :D

Care to explain...? I never used this in any argument.

U R really lucky

What to advertise??
We need to start recruitment process. For this it requires job advertisements for 5 weeks in a row, complete the recruitment process.

hi,

Just want to find out the process to apply for interim EAD...I applied for EAD renewal on 8th of may and my EAD expires August 16th...i doubt i get my EAD before my current expires...i just want to find out whether i can apply for interim EAD or ??? if yes, what are the current procedures? I e-filed my EAD application and sent all documents to TSC...please help gurus.

ALl I-485, repeat ALL do not have PD date on it. Only the I-140 approval notices have a date filled in.

Very true

This is what my lawyer says : "When the I-140 is already approved, there is no need to submit such letter.
Only in the rare event that you have an interview at the time of
adjudication of your I-485, then you must bring a recently dated letter
stating such only for the purpose to reaffirm what they have already
approved on the I-140. Interviews for Employment based cases are issued
randomly. There is no reason to worry about this." Is it correct ?

Great frequent flyer program...great service....and no transit visa bs....no brainer
