Well done that man!

Hi friends,

We filed I485 in July.We got our Ead and Ap and my hubby is shifting jobs using AC 21. But we did not get any FP notice till now. In our EAD card, it just says fingerprint unavailable. We called USCIS twice but they said that they haven't yet generated any FP notice for us. Even our attorney hasn't received anything. We have to renew our EAD card in June..will there be a prb during the renewal becos of lack of FP?? Should we get an infopass appt for this..is it necessary?
Anyone in same situation pls lemme know.
Thanks!

I am in the same boat. I opened an SR and waiting for response. I am also looking for an answer on this.

Anyone ? Please.

Yes, it is worth it if you're PD is current. I got my approval in less than 15 days and to think there even wan request for evidence. Everything was expedited. So am now filing my 485. But for those whose PD is not current, it does not make sense to pay extra for premium processing.

Congrats for your freedom after 9 yrs..N'joy the future..

Friends,

I am EB2 with Jan 2005 Priority date, I have used AC21 and send documents before through attorney.

For my self
1. Now I got RFE on current employement and offer of proposed employment (description of position) and offered salary

2. Current address proof

For my Spouse
1. Missing G325-A need to submit one (but I did send them initially)
2. Evidence that you maintained non immigrant status

Please let me know if there is any attorney who is good and affordable

Thanks in advance
Shana

did you receive one rfe for both cases or one each for each case?

AP is taking around 1.5 to 2 months at TSC. Mine took 7 to 8 weeks, filed nov 1, apprvd dec22.

We didn't have issues getting the original loan and getting refinances for our home with H1 and our EAD/ AP....although they need lot more paperwork. But if you have good credit score, and if you have the papers that they request, you should be able to get a good rate. The time from application to closing takes a little longer though.

Can you please tell us which service center you send your application to?

Thanks.

Nayekal, Thanks for your response.

What I meant to say is that my H1 is expiring on Sep 30th 2009 and therefore the earliest date I can apply for extension is April 1st. That's why I asked the question whether I can wait until April 1st for COS from H1 to H4 for my wife even though my wife's employment is ending on March 13th.

Also, is it necessary to have the proof of I-539 receipt by March 13th or few weeks difference is ok? Can you please let me know your experience in this matter.

Thanks...

Can some one help me out what i have to do in my specific case.

I applied for AINP on Feb-2009.That time my martial status is single.I got married on April-2009.I got my file number last week.If i want to include my spouse on my AINP process what i have to do?Did anyone faced this kind of situation?

Please help me.

KumKum,

There are a lot of people who have been waiting/praying to see the file number email... The one which you recieved a few days ago...

Take a vacation and come back after 4 months... thats what Alberta says :)

I transfered last week, I got msg saying it has been remitted today. No issues.

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.

Hi,
I just got married not long ago.

I'm planning to apply I-485 this july.
My question:
Should she change her name prior to applying I-485 or she can do it after we applying I-485.
How easy it�ll be to change last name while I-140 and I-485 pending?

Anyone in the same boat?

Thanks in advance.

Found my answer:


DialogAddTo.RestoreDirectory = true;

added that line before .showDialog() and it fixed the problem...

Wow,

at first glance it seems 245(i) is kicking in real hard.

Look at EB-3 numbers for Mexico, Phillipines, Pakistan, South Korea, Guatemala, Brazil, Equador, Peru, Poland, El Salvador, Bolivia, Ecquador,

Compare this with H1-B data and you'll see what I mean.

Also EB-1 seems unusually high at ~37,000
EB-1 is even higher than EB-2

isn't that unusual?

If you are not sure if you will have a job till October 1st, 2009, you can ask your employer/lawyer to file your H1 under visa to be issued abroad category and NOT file a H1 Change of Status petition. In this case, your H1 status wont start until you go out of the country and re-enter after getting H1 visa stamped at a US consulate in your home country. This way, even if you get laid off, you can continue to stay and work here until you have a valid OPT and a job irrespective of whether your H1 is approved/revoked. But the drawback here is that, if you end up still being employed then you wont be able to start work on H1 till you re-enter with the H1 stamp. Hope this helps....

Contribute and make your way to Hall of Fame from Shame.

Starting EB2 process will be the same as EB3 process. Your company should have a position open that requires atleast Masters degree or Bachelor + 5 years experience. They'll have to go through recruitment process and document that no US citizen or PR was available to fill the position and then file PERM.

Your EB3 applicaiton will not be affected by this new application.

The whole process upto I-140 may cost $10k-15k
