Finally! Last night at 8:00 pm EST I received an email from CRIS saying that the Card production was ordered. That is awesome.
I assume that I should get the card in about 5-10 business days.
Does anyone know how long it takes to get the EAD after the card production is ordered?

While on AoS, are we classified as US Resident - as long as we pass the IRS resident test of presence in US.

Thank You and best wishes

I would say second one is correct...

Hi All,

I am not sure whether this has been answered earlier. Here is my situation.

My H1b is getting over by Jan 2008. My I-140 approved and I have filed my I-485 in July 2nd 2007. I contacted my company law firm and one of the top law firm about 3 year extension. Here is the answer

Attorney from company law firm:- Since you have applied for I-485 you will not be eligible for 3 year or one year extension. The only stage when you can apply for 3 year extension is when your I-140 is approved and the PD is not current. Since there was a time the PD was current and you applied for I-485, you will not be eligible for 3 year extension. Even if you apply you will get rejected.

Then I contacted the other law firm mentioning about the above law firm comments and here is the reply.

Attorney from one of the top law firm:-The law firm is simply reading things wrong. You can file for the three year extension as long as there is not a visa number available. Therefore, if the I-485 was filed and then the visa numbers became unavailable, as is the case right now, the three year extensions are possible. I would see if you can request the law firm to reread the rule that permits the three year extensions. They are reading it too narrowly. We follow this procedure successfully all the time.

So I am confused in this case and my employer will believe in what the company law firm will say.

So I am trying to get an opinion from any one who was in this situation and got a 3 year extension and who is right?

Thanks

but we received an RFE Yday forwarded from my old address which I moved out 1 year ago and filed AR11.

also the RFE stated that there is no G28 representation on our case and worst thing was online status is still pending.

We had lost 13 valuable days because of address they used in RFE.

Good Luck.!!

What was your RFE about?

If you don�t want to go out of USA then you can apply for change of status to change from L1b to H1 or you can go out of USA and get H1b stamping done.

SKIL exempts applicants with a masters degree from the US and 3 years experience from the annual quotas. This along with not counting dependents should bring considerable relief to even the folks who are still subject to quota.
You mean 3 year experience in US no matter from where you got your masters degree or
Only US degree + 3 years experience will get exemption?

I like 2,3,and 4. Good job, Anders!

Congratulations to all the winners!
this was really exciting :)

:-)

Call your employer and ask him for all these documents. These are agreements between your employer and client. He should have these.

Can some one please confirm. I hope I am not confusing everyone here. I am filing my I 140 now, I want to be sure that this is safe.....

thanks for the kind replies...
Yes is surely possible. To get a reply from the appeals process takes years. What your lawyer suggesting is a good option. Hope you have strong points to over come the cause of the last denial. In case is was due to ability to pay, make sure you are getting paid atleast the Prevailing wage and submit that pay stubs that prove the same.

Best of luck with your filing.

I know this is not a good question as there is no time frame for GC process?
But please share your experience;
How many years it could take to get GC if it is started with in Aug. 2008 for
-EB2 category
-EB3 category

I am trying to understand the time (years) difference between two process.

Thanks,
Sanjeev.

Hello Guys,

Does any one here has Newark NJ as their ASC? Reason is my notice date is august 27th from TSC and I haven't received my FP notice yet. My wife has the similar issue as well. I've called USCIS atleast twice but they are not ready to open service request and are saying that the ASC must be busy.

I wanted to find out if any one of you here has notice date after august 27th and have already got FP notice from Newark (NJ) ASC.

Thanks.

Cute!

Just allowing filing of I-485 while You are retrogressed, is a boon, so u can get EAD and are allowed to change Jobs in the Same profession

Good news....Very bold move by Indian Govt.

^

This is pure desperation. Its been discussed a lot many times but people keep asking the same question again and again. Check out the forum library you will find all the answers to your 'Case Study"Applicable to all retrogessed guys...

Case deatils :

Approved I-140 & H1-B extended for 3 years beyond 6 years because of approved I-140. Can NOT file I-485 because of retrogression

Next step H1-B transferred to new employer & redo Labor & I-140.


Question :

Can you file I-485 for both employers at the same time ???? & choose whichever comes first. Will there be any complicated issue if you filed I-485 with the 2nd employer after 1st employer has filed I-485

Bottom line ... How complicated will the life be if one changes job after 3 yr. extension of H1 based on approved I-140 ????

Please share your info as the attorneys are nuts..


Has this issues beeb discussed in detail at any other place like WWW.immigration - law.com ??

Please provide with the link


CORE TEAM : Can this issue be discussed with the Attorneys in upcoming conference ???

What will happen if primary case got approved but dependent case is still pending and at the same time, dependent H4 will be expiring soon??
Actually my case got approved yesterday, my wife's not yet. Her H4 expires in September. Thanks.

Hi Guys,

I just wanted to get some input from the veterans here who have started a business in partnership while they have been waiting for the coveted green card.

What kind of legal paperwork does it take to start a business? I would think as long as you don't work for the business it should be ok? If you can own part of a corporation (stocks), you can be a partner in a business?

Ideas?

If you are in H1B status, you can start your business by investing, but not working. You can not work for your business to get paid, but you can get profit sharing. In Wisconsin, when you register, you need a President/CEO who can legally work for your business. You can check with your state and register your business there. Probably, you even can register online in some state. Of cause, later on, you will need help from your accountant, laywer, etc.
If you have Green Card or EAD, that is not a problem to run by yourself.
Good luck.:)
