We went home after my wife started working using the EAD. After we came back we applied for your H1 and H4 extension and one we got that now we are in H status instead of EAD status. It is a little tricky. When we came back we entered as parolee but once we applied and extended our H1\H4 status we ar eback to H1\H4 status. Your lawyer would be able to explain it better.
My lawyer suggetsed that it is better to be in H status as it gives some manuvering time and opportunity in case the 485 is denied.
Thanks
khans02,
Based on your message, it seems that you and your wife are in H1/H4 status now after the extension. Does that mean that your wife has now stopped working?...because you have mentioned that she was working on EAD before you guys left for India.

Given the hopelessness of the situation in March, switched jobs and was unable to file labor for a variety of reasons. Now everyday I see people come over and tell me how they plan to switch jobs once the 6 month mandated hibernation is over...I feel like breaking something. Lot of them have even stopped working, confident that a new job awaits :mad:
8 years of paying taxes in this country and not even a piece of plastic to show for it. :mad:
--That ought to suck every bit of sanity left! I know "should have..would have..." doesn't matter anymore but I am curious why you did not opt to do labor substitution in june-july period. You should have had a crack at it.
I know people on h1 with consulting companies did better than those who got stuck with one permanent job.Stale career , stale pay and so on...
Do your best and make most of h1b.

Hi!
My lawyer filed my application in Nebraska on July 2 ( it should have been filed in Texas). Probably it will get transfered to Texas?
But I have not recieved any updates on my case
- no checks cashed
- no reciepts issued.
The USCIS asks me to wait for 3 months ( till Oct 2) to help in any way.
Is any one in similar situation. Is this normal?
Thanks,

My previous to previous employment is 3.5 yrs for which they said nothing. RFE clearly mentions name of my last employer and says to submit proof with dates worked from-to, responsibilities and job details.

Our FP were sent back to USCIS the same day - 10/1/07.
What does this mean. The lady didnt have any information on name check. Seems like there is no way of knowing anything about name check!:mad:
Yeah sadly, there is no way to know. Even I am desperate to find out how one can know if they have cleared name check. I happened to know this from my friend - Get an infopass appointment and maybe an immigration officer might be willing to help you. I don't know how far this is possible since I HAVE NOT TRIED IT. But could be one of the options. More discussions from other experts might help.

All,
This has been discussed before, but I could not find a definitive answer.
I live in Alabama and my I-485 is pending with Nebraska Service Center. Based on instructions in I-765 form, Alabama falls under Texas Service Center.
My category for I-765 EAD is -- (c) (9).
Now I am filing for my EAD renewal. Where should I send in my paper application -- Nebraska or Texas?
Would you all pl let me know. Last time my EAD was messed up big time, (wrong dates on EAD card), and I want to make sure everything goes normal this time.
Appreciate your reply.
Thanks.
You need to follow instructions. It makes no difference in processing time if your I-485 application is pending in NSC and based on instruction you need to apply in TSC and Vice Versa.
In fact I think, load sharing is going on. I applied I-765 at NSC but case is handled by MSC. Don't be surprized, that you apply at TSC and case being handled by other office.

Thanks Ivar for your reply.
Ivar, thanks for the info. I am thinking of applying for porting now.How long does it typically take to process. Also was there any audit you are aware of that came for your case?
I do not have master's degree but I have 10+ years of experience and my job requirements are also for managing a team etc.

If the person gets the visa stamped on the passport at the US consulate abroad, I do not see any problems re-entering.
AP is only optional. You can always get a valid US visa stamp based on the approved petition and use the H-1 visa stamp to re-enter.
I am not sure what the confusion here is:rolleyes:
There could be a problem at Point of Entry if the officer notices the exit date before the approval of AP. I think for you to be able to use AP to enter it should be approved prior to your exit out of the country. You might want to consult an attorney or USCIS on this. If the IO at POE stops them there is nothing you can do. So be very careful on what you want to do here.

A 700billion$ bailout is not helping much. You think we can help the economy? We are at the mercy of the employers whose earning results are going down because of recession. :( It is hard for me to believe that we can help the economy by buying houses and how are the law makers going to get convinced? Show me the proof.
I am not sure it is simply US$700 billions. Europe is also coming out with bailout package of US$2000-3000 billions.
Let me take example of India: I heard someone talking India coming with Rs. 100,000 Crore (US$250 billion) bailout, some other said no it is Rs 60,000 crore. Between these talks, one airline asked for Rs 5,000 crore bailout. So follows other industry.
So now this is economy of bailouts. I am sure several other countries also must be planning bailout. US has $10.2 trillion US national debt (FED loan), but current external debts are too much (US$16.2 trillion in 2006 ) and govt liabllities US$59 trillion. Refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_the_United_States
US economy desipte problems is so strong that all the bailouts directly or indirectly supporting business in US. So the US$700 billion is just a symbolic figure. Actual support to US economy could reach US$ 4-5 trillion through worldwide bailouts.

I did not understand the "time of filing I-485 (that means that visa is immediately available) minus time that I-140 was pending with USCIS" part.
My situation is as follows - My I-140 is approved and judging by the current situation my child will be above 21years (currently on H4) when visa becomes available.
My questions are - Will I be able to extend my child's H4 beyond his 21 years, assuming I continue on H1? And will I be able to adjust my child's status when visa becomes available?
ThanksShort answer No. Long answer: it depends on when you will apply for 485. For example: you filed I-140 on Jan 1-st 2006, it was approved on Jan 1-st 2007, so it was pending for 365 days. You are applying for 485 when you child is 21 years and 364 days old - he is covered by CPA (Child protection act) and can file 485 as your dependent. One day later - he is not covered and could not file 485.
Hope it helps.

I have used it. I-140 approved. Currently working on EAD. Got the letter from new employer mentioning title similar to both of my GC labor bassed application example: title: Title1(EB3 based - old app/Title2(EB2 based - New app). I will be using that letter to inform USCIS for my AC 21 usage. I am waiting for my lawyer to take that task into his hand.My both GC is based on different but close labor codes. Currently I have not decided to port PD to new file but once I decide the same letter will work for that as well. My letter just mentions title and salary and which department I am working and to whom I am reporting. According to lawyer there is no need to put "Job Description" at all in that letter. I originally got the letter with job description (matching both codes) but my lawyer advised me to remove "job description" and thus I had to take another letter.

Myht 1: If I-485 gets denied I have H1-B to as a back up.
Think of this - you get AP and EAD based on pending I-485. Similarly, you get H1-B extension beyond 6 years based on your pending green card process. Once your I-485 is denied, your AP, EAD and extended H-1, all are gone at once. Yes, extended H1-B is no longer valid after that. You simply can not fall back on that.
Myth2 : I want to continue on H1-B even after getting EAD, I feel safer.
Think again. Suppose you came to the US in 2004. In 2007 during the visa gate scandal, you filed your I-485 and got EAD. At that point of time, you had two options. You could have continued H1-B or changed over to EAD. Person A changed to EAD. Well, once he changed to EAD his clock of "Time spent on H1-B" stops right there. Come 2010, if his I-485 gets denied, he still has 3 years of H1-B left and he can use it till 2013.
Person B decided to continue using H1-B after 2007 and kept his EAD as backup. Same thing happened, his I-485 got rejected in 2010. He can not go back to H1-B. He has utilized H1-B for all 6 years and he can not get it extended without going out of the US for one year.
So by keep EAD for "in case I-485 goes south" and using H1-B, you are killing your options. If someone has a choice between EAD and H1-B, he should use EAD.
Gurus.....any comments?

Yes. my I-140 is Approved and 180 days has passed. How much time will i have to transfer H1B without loosing H1B status? Thanks for your response.
For H1B: use your vacation time to be associated with your current employer for as long as possible, try pay without leave if possible. No hard and fast rule how much gap is allowed. In principle, there can be no gap but lawyers claim 10days, 2weeks is okay. USCIS asks for recent pay stubs to check for gaps.
You are in much better shape with >180 days in AOS. Can work in EAD if needed.
Don't worry.
