one more question... if I reenter using my AP then IO always take you to some place/room to verify something or its sometimes/randomly only? I just realize that my connection time while coming back from one airport(POE) to another is just 2 hours.

According to your profile it took you less than a year to get your GC and you call that a Long Wait. :rolleyes: People here stuck for 10 years.
Your question is too confusing otherwise i would have answered as here on IV we are very generous even to the people who doesnt care about us.
Anyways hiring a lawyer and paying some money would be a better place to get a right answer.
My GC was approved last month after a very long wait time. Currently I am working for company B on EAD (not the GC filing employer). The question I had was can I continue to work for company B on a part time basis and join company A (GC filling employer).
Company A has a 9 month probation period I am worried if i quiet company B and company A fire me later then I will be with out job.
So I can work for company A (GC filing employer) full time and at the same time work part time with company B.
So this way if company A does fire me during probation period I continue with company B :confused: on full time basis. Is this ok will it come to haunt me when I file for citizenship?

I doubt if it'll be a GC process for illegals. I guess at best that would be a temp visa.
If it is a GC, then there's no way they can give illegals preference over legals. In this case we're a little screwed since the lines will be filled with people (who can prove they've been longer than us)
If it's a temp visa, we're still screwed - because of the additional processing, they may not process GCs as fast (!) as they're doing now.
That's my speculation so far.

The only reason I see the lawyer not applying with enotice, could be he was very busy.
Even my attorney did not file concurrently on 28th as it was last day for PP of 140 and her office was extermely busy applying PP on 28th.
I then walked on 29th and signed all 485 , and she said she will wait for receipt notice and then apply and then July2nd showed up and this fiasco.
Once I got e-notice of approval for 140 by email, I called up the attorney and she filed 485 one day before the announcement of July17th.
At that time she did not have Hardcopy of either receipt notice nor approval notice. So she filed with e-notice of approval.
Next day we got hard copy of approval notice. The receipt notice is yet to arrive in mail.
I hope this is ok. Otherwise 140 receipt notice is a initial evidence and app could get rejected and returned.
But it should return by Aug 17th . So still there is some time to act.
If I dont get receipt notice of 485 by aug 16th, I plan to apply duplicate 485 and say in cover letter that this is because of so and so.
Sad that 485 receipt is not emailed ? like 140 e-notice.

So we can apply for an EAD and AP renewal when the time comes on our own?
Also is AC-21 filing involved in this case?
And would my current employer need to do anything or need to not do anything?
Thanks,

But if your form is signed with today's date then doctor might want you to take blood work again as they are no longer invalid if they are more than 1 yr old.

Before answering something like this, you should know what you are answering.
I think you should explain what you are saying . going back to your previous posts you don't seem to be a particularly well mannered individual.
I tried to help the guy best to my ability and I said what I believe to be true. If you can prove that I said something wrong then you should say that with appropriate links.
I don't see any harm helping others who are trying to walk on the same path of immigration as we did legally.

The reason they seem to be doing this is because of the kind of recomendations they get from various sources which complain about how the website is not helpful or how it is difficult to track information etc...
One has to understand that such traditional type organizations have their own pace and deal with things in their own way.
The new website may not satisfy applicants but from their POV - they have something better than what they had before and thats how any big organization runs.

hi thanks your input.
what about my Lud ? when i will see lUD ? I took biometric yesterday and my pd is curent now.
I saw your profile. You are from Nepal.
As far as Soft LUD is concerned, there should be one or two after finger printing. (Refer to http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=18737 for EAD cases).
Your priority date is current.
I hope that they must have sent for Name Check long ago - this should not be blocking.
What about processing date (Aug 24, 2007 is receipt date)? There was memo from USCIS that it may take over 18 months for processing date to come around Aug 2007. Your I485 i.e. GC can be blocked by processing date.
For example today Nebraska is processing EB based I-485 Application of July 14, 2007. I heard that in a month there was just a change of three days. For Texas, keep on looking at https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/Processtimes.jsp?SeviceCenter=TSC

ok one question i have here is lets say if you have crossed your 6 years H1B limit and now the current employer does not give u copies of I140 and labor, in this case the new company wont be able to file for your H1 renewal coz the renewal is based on labor and I-140.. in this case there is no choice and u r forced to use your EAD... is that right??

Hi
We are in AOS pending status. I am on EAD.
After seeing the economy I am planning to send my wife to India. She is pregnant (2 months). Now I have job and in future if I get into any trouble with project Etc.. I need to pay the medical insurance and will have lot of financial issues.
How difficult is to bring new infant to US from India while our AOS is pending and apply 485. (Visitor visa Etc..)
Any suggestions.
Thanks
Since you are not on H1 visa status anymore, child can not get H-4 visa to enter into USA. Your child must get immigrant visa as follow-to-join. Immigrant visa can be issued only when your PD is current. You will need to file I-824 with USCIS. (Link for I-824 (http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-824.pdf))

Kaisersose thank you for your reply. Is their a time limit for how long I have to work for the GC filling employer? what worries me is if they fire me in lets say 1 month after hire during their probation period am I safe? Even though i was working part time some where else.
No minimum period is necessary and firing will not have any negative impact.

Democrats have majority in the house and that is what Nacy will look for. She will see what is the out come of the HOUSE before really making some thing in the SENATE
They'll probably start with what Senate passes. and make some minor amendments.
If it passes the house, conference will be piece of cake.
Our best hope is:
1. When senators return to the constituencies for the memorial day recess, they receive a LOT of negative feedback about CIR and enough number of senators change their minds and vote in -ve and bill fails to make out of the Senate. Likelihood: 10-20%.
2. House of reps votes on this CIR and defeats it. Likelihood: 40-60%.
I hope one way or another, this piece of crap fails and I happily get my GC in another 5-10 years. If it passes, I'll have to pack my bags. Amen.

This really helped me. I just did that and find out that I have so many addresses there. As I said initially because of my job status I moved a lot within US..
But I am still confused.
For India I am clear. For the period when I was in India, I will put Indian address
But while I was in US, what addresses should I put in g-325a form - The places where I actually lived or as the addresses I put in my US tax returns ?
I have no problem in providing all US addresses, but that contradicts with my addresses in US Tax returns.
If USCIS will do background check, are they more concerned about
(a) That addresses in my tax return should match with my residence addresses in g-325a form ?
OR
(c) They are more inclined towards that addresses should match with the actual addresses where I lived ?
from annualcreditreport.com (this is a site from the 3 credit agencies), you can see all the addresses that your credit card bills went to. So there is a record of where you actually lived in the last 3-5 years.
By the way, by law you are entitled to a free credit report annually. You can get it from the afore mentioned site.

burden is not on you, but if your PD is current, your FPs are expired, then they are not gonna approve GC without having new FPs. And if they are not sending the FP notice, wouldn't you take effort to do something about it?
I remember reading in one of the threads here that USCIS computer system automatically generates FP notices if its more than 15 months. By the way, if they don't issue us one, why we do need to ask them using congressmen etc? Is the burden of giving FP every 15 months falls on the applicant?

You can file 2 applications. It's likely that they will not issue two Advance Parole and EAD applications to each of you. At some point down the road USCIS will make you choose which application to pursue to completion.

What happens, once he moves to the new employer and his present employer withdraws I-140? For any subsequent H1 transfers/extensions will he will need to have an approved I-140, which is not withdrawn ?
Could there be issues, if new employer does a lay off what happens when perm/i-140 is pending or not filled yet
