Hi,
my wife has received EAD and she also has H4 status. If she travels on H4 and get it stamped in India , can she work on EAD when she comes back?

Kindly request your help,
Anant

You should apply neither Fiance visa (K1) or Tourist visa (B2) I guess that is the best and fastest way as far as I know.

Why he wants to apply for fiance visa? Is that his problem? did you read his situation?

same here, my PD is Aug 2004 EB3(ROW) but my I-140 and 485 is still pending at NSC(more than 240 days).I dont have any hope that my I-140 will be cleared any time soon...Good bless H1B people

Folks,

Need a little advice. We (my husband and I) filed our 485 on July 2 under EB-3and have received AP, EAD, FP etc. Our PD date (July 7, 2001) got current in the March bulletin:). I wanted to check if there is way to find out if our cases have been adjudicated and are ready for approval as and when a visa # is allocated in March.

Thanks

Excatly, you got it. at the end of year w2 should have 100k as a salary not after employer deduction.

... this means nothing. it might mean "none of the above" in a multiple choice situation and might be put by mistake. might be good to have it corrected though. :rolleyes:

--a person who does not know what happened to own application at all. :)

Regarding first point,
I would also submit marriage ceremony pictures (if you have them) along with marriage certificate (notarize the photocopy), assuming it is in English, else get it translated with affidavit and again notarize the copy. Sending Birth certificate copy along with above might be a + .

I will not recommend Marriage Pics. I would say supplimental documentation like Joint Income Tax return, Lease Papers for Apartment, Insurance papers will be better than marriage picture. But then there is no harm in sending them as well. Perhaps can provide some entertainment to IO who might be bored looking at documents all the time.

Very helpful man, thanks.

and yes, it would be helpful to have this somewhere in a prominent spot on IV..

It is best that you never be out of job. If you lose job, try to get one ASAP. It normally takes a month or two to get one if you work hard and try

I am curious to know how long can one stay out of job on an EAD. My case being 485 applied in july 2007 , 140 is already approved and its been about a year since 485 application.

So does the law says that one has to stay in employment or one can relax and take it easy for a little bit.

thanks in advance

Do you think the birth certificate from Indian consulate ( here in US) are acceptable?
Did you try that option?

Birth Certificate from consulate are not acceptable to USCIS. Please check wiki for details.

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for your replies. I called a couple of lawyer offices and this is the response i got.

For the candidate to switch jobs here are the rules:

1) The labour in the new company should be filed 365 days BEFORE the end of the second H1B.
AND
2) To keep getting 3 year extentions, your I-140 in the First company should be approved
AND
3) The First company should NOT revoke your existing Green Card application.

Which EB category are you shooting for?

I am curious - Did you get a receipt notice for your wife? I have E-filed for AP for my family. I have got the paper receipt for me but not for my family. I am wondering if there is a pattern here.

Thanks,
Mitesh

I got the 1st AP receipt notice for my wife with I485 and EAD receipts in about 1 week after they entered our case into the system (September 2007). On October, 2007 she received EAD card but never received the actual approved AP.
I did not apply for EAD and AP. I'm still on H1B

I called, the clerk took the message and said will convery.

the attroney preparing with masters plus 7 years experience

he says not every application get audited but there are chances

per him its not post masters years ,its over all experience

I applied on June 12 (paper file) at TSC , Notice date June 18th , RD June 13th and received EAD cards on Aug 18th (CPO mail on Aug 15th).

Hope this info helps.

e-filed EAD renewal on 5/27 TSC
FP:6/21
still waiting....

EB2 i
PD:10/05, I140 approved 2/06

b. Do not make photocopies of official US Documents. Its a violation. The official will understand why you made a copy, but ITS A VIOLATION. On that note, please do make a photocopy.

Yes it is a violation. But guess what, USCIS asked me to send color copies of all the pages of my passport, approval notices and I-94 in one RFE. I spent a while trying to convince the law-abiding staples clerk that "the government" asked me to make copies. She kept pointing me to a document that clearly stated that it was illegal and they were told not to do it. Finally she agreed to look the other way, while I made copies in a self service copier.

Give us some relief during the period of recession and make some rules for H1B guys to stay legal and claim unemployment benifits

1. Allow H1B holders to stay unemployed but legal during this time of recession. They should be allowed unemployment insurance for the amount of money they contributed during the years of their work.
2. Don't send RFE to those in EAD during the this time of recession.

Jayant,

Thanks. I will have to return to China because my husband is chinese. If he can not stay here, he would like to go back there and so do I.

Once again thanks for the advice. Let me rephrase my question:

(a) At this point can I file for PERM processing (five months left on H1)?

(b) Case I : If labour does not get cleared within next five months,can I apply for H1 B extension?

(c) Case II : If labour gets cleared within next five months, can I apply for H1B extension?

At this point, I am loooking for extension of one year. Is there any way I can do this?

Thanks a lot again,
Savitri Bhave

Thanks for your kind comments!

Janet, you're right, they're about ready. They did fly around occasionally, sometimes grabbing the food out of the mouth of a parent in midair. Couldn't catch that on "film" unfortunately. :)

Krish,

I did not mention that the PD will be affected. My first sentence very clearly states that his PD will not be affected. The disruptions I mentioned were with respect to his current petition.

Read carefully before jumping into conclusions.

OK your first line did say PD is saved. But what did you mean by "If your employer recalls the 140 it could casue potential disruptions." What disruptions you are talking about wrt current petition ? irrespective of it being recalled OP will need to start from PERM ; irrespective of 140 being recalled OP will be able to save PD.

To summarize , recalling 140 has NO impact in OPs case.
