Hello all,

For past few months I hear some noice on the web that USCIS may be changing its policy soon by discontinuing Concurrent filing and allowing people to file I485 If I140 is approved irrespetive of visa number availability. How far this is true, have any body got more details on this ?? :confused:

there was a proposal a while ago to stop allowing concurrent filing, but I have only heard about filing of 485 without an I-140 from people who wish for that, nothing from USCIS.
Something like that requires a change in the law, its not a matter of USCIS policy

Why this is posted here? It was published in Aug 2002 and that too in anti website. Guys don't give publicity for antis here.

I called USCIS to know the status of my I765 and I131 and came to know it got rejected because of sign missing on the form as i had filed my 485 with my EAD and AP i got my 485 receipt month back.

And USCIS said they have mailed my returned application on 13th aug but i have not received it yet.I called USCIS and they said that i can refile it again after 30days if i don't receive my package. Can i file on my own i do have the LIN number for rejected application.Can i file online

please suggest

Thanks for the update

Hello All,

The Washington Post - Metro Section - has an article on the rally in today's paper.
Have others come across any other papers carrying articles on the rally?

Thanks.

Your 9 month initial stay will not be counted as you stayed 1 year out of usa.

So total L1 period is 13 months so far. and Total of l1+h1 is 6 years. so you can have 4 years + 9 months on H1 and your initial H1 will be for 3 years

Please provide any suggestion. I am waiting on this.

Complete your profile first. How come your GC is not approved if your PD is Nov'02 with EB-2 India....Is your I-140 approved and I-485 pending for more than 180 days? If so, it doesn't matter if your employer revokes I-140, you will be covered under AC21, provided you have another job offer in a same/similar position.

any help - urgent

Bill Gates' Post article is quoted in there too...

What are you smoking? Would you please share with the forum?

Thank you! Hopefully 8c/page is not big money for me.

All you need is History/Documents report to check upon the status. So that's 8c per case. Opinions are free in PACER.

Filed 02/18 (law was passed 02/17) under premium, approved 02/24.
Congrats.

I wonder how DOL is interpreting the "new employment" clause in the new law that prevents TARP companies from sponsoring H1Bs. Technically, an LCA filed for an H1B extension is for a "period of new employment". If they were to strictly follow this technicality, H1B extensions by TARP companies would also be unlawful. However, from the employer's perspective, an H1B extension is not a new employment, but a continuation of an existing one.

Have any of the celebrity immigration lawyers published their interpretation yet?

Unless the dependent is going to have his 140 filed under EB1 I am not sure it would help.

But to answer your question, I think it is ok to file. Check with your attorney before you do that though

Hi,

My current situation is as below

I -797 and I-94 expiry date: 10 Jun 2011
Passport expiry : 28 Oct 2011

I am filing for H1 extension through my company immigration cell. However, they informed me that my passport had to be renewed before filing the extension !! else the attached I-94 in the extended I 797 will have the expiry date only till my passport expiry :confused:

In that case, if they had to wait for my renewed passport to arrive (which can take longer) to file the extension and my I-94 might expire before that.

Can someone please provide some advice if that's the case?

Any recent approvals in NSC?

Please, can somebody post a format for the employment verfication letter to be shown at port of entry, i just want to make sure i have covered everything on the letter
I am travelling tomm and will be coming back on AP

Thanks

My PERM for EB3 has been approved on July 2008. My I-140 is pending. 485 has not been submitted yet. I don't have EAD card either. For some reason, I have to change job.

My question is, if my current employer will not revoke my current I-140 sponsorship, even I have left company, and in case my current I-140 will be approved, can my priority date be carried over?

Bunch of thanks!!

Seek a competent lawyer's help. There is a "nunc pro tunc" option . Since you applied for the initial amendment in May 2009 after your expiration of OPT, they would have to check if any grace period applies or if it could be done in your case for "change of Status". But worth the try, in either case you make sure you are not "out of status".

Hope all ends well for you.

Hi Gurus,

I am in a interesting situation. I have an approved EB2 I-140 but I recently applied for EB1-140 and I-485 concurrently and they are pending. Given that all PDs are now current, is it possible to convert my I-485 to the approved EB2 I-140. This will remove the uncertainty around approval of EB1 I-140. Any advice/experience is appreciated.

You can apply of AOS i.e I 485 only for one application . Since you already have applied for AOS on EB1 I highly doubt u can apply for AOS for EB2. Talk to your lawyer and find out

If this is a duplicate thread, I apologize and admin please close/delete this.

1) Many of us have already used AC21, The current economic condition might force us to switch job on EAD, Can we file AC21 multiple times. Has any one done this.
2) If I do not file AC21, with new job and can we leave with the 1st employer as for future employment, Join the original employer we filed AC21 upon approval of GC, In than condition, an offer letter from the employer hold good in case of RFE.

Today, I received an email from USCIS that my EAD application got approved. My receipt date is on the 3rd week of May of 2007. What I don't understand is that the current processing time at NSC for I-765(EAD) for pending I-485 is March 26th, 2007.....

We have the exact same situation down to the receipt date :eek: I was so shocked I almost fell off my chair when I got my email. A completely unexpected surprise but a good surprise, nevertheless.
