Folks,
Here's my situation: Eb2 India (PD of 24th May 2006), filed 485 ONLY for self in September 2008, got married later and hence wife is not yet added to my 485 application. She is dependent H4 on my H1 visa -- so even though I have EAD, I am NOT using it.
Changing jobs now going to same title, similar job duties. The lawyers at hiring company say I can use my EAD and H1b interchangeably! And my understanding was that the moment I use EAD, my H1B is annulled. Is this not right?
Second question -- the lawyer mentions that even if my date becomes current and we can for some reason NOT get my wife's 485 application in, we can always do follow-to-join without any issues. Has someone had any experience with this. My understanding was that I NEED to make sure my wife's 485 application reaches them on the 1st of the month in which my date is becoming current.
Could someone PLEASE comment on these two questions?
Thank you much!

Murali,
Your India visit should not affect your gc. I know of several people who have gone out of the country after filing 485 (even without getting receipt). In one scenario, someone's application reached on 2nd and left the country on 3rd (with lawyer's approval). Ideally, you should wait for EAD/AP but according to my lawyer, it is ok to go out as long as you have a valid H1 stamp which allows you to reenter.
The only thing I can think of that can be impacted is your fingerprinting. If you get a notice while you are gone and don't return before the due date, your case will be considered abandoned (it is noted on the fingerprint receipt). To avoid this, inform your lawyer when you leave. They too get a copy of fingerprinting notice and can get it postponed for you if you are out of the country. Also make sure your mail is picked up regularly just in case USCIS tries to mail you some letter/EAD.
As always, check with your lawyer to get final opinion as your case is best known to him/her only.
My 2 cents, hope it helps.

Reliable information from my friend's lawyer says that the cap for this year is NOT reached in the 1st one week. I think this means all applications filed in first week will be processed.
Congratulations to all those who applied and hope their cases get approved
There was really no way it would have gone into a lottery this year, infact the interesting thing is for how long the filing will last this year.

I value the contribution of IV a lot, but saying that you will get an answer only if you contribute is lame.. This is a public forum and all contributions are voluntary. Your answer degrades the noble cause of IV. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
Good answer Loudobbs!! janilsal pls refrain from making such announcements - it is not nice

Restarting wouldn't be a bad idea in my case as i'm EB3 ROW and i do have an approved I140 on EB3.
But in my case i have over 4 years of work experience, but do not have a masters degree, so any idea if that is possible ?
My gut feeling is that regardless if i'm not able to qualify for EB2, my PD JUN 2006 will get current in a couple of months - just hopefull :rolleyes:

I quote:
"We have also improved our legal immigration system by reducing backlogs of immigration applications and devoting critical funding to promote innovative citizenship preparation and integration programs in communities throughout the country."
Any idea what they are talking about in terms of backlog reduction?

Gurus,
My employer and lawyer won't give me the Receipt notice of my I-485 which we filed on July 2nd. My employer did not let me file my EAD/AP as well.
Do I have any way of filing EAD/AP on my own without a copy of the receipt notice(after it is generated and sent to the lawyer)?
Someone told me that Fingerprinting notice that we get looks just like I-485 receipt notice and has all the information in there. Can we use a copy of that notice in place of I-485 RN?
The application instructions for I-765 mention that we need to submit "I-485 receipt notice OR any other proof that I-485 is pending"
Any one?

My case is not premium processing and the online status changed to "approval notice sent " for 4 days before the status changed to " document sent ". Its an I 140 and I heard that the mistake was restricted to PP cases . So I do not think that is the issue . Some one said it could be the last status on an approved I 140
Thanks anyway for the info

My Question:-
My answers.
Disclaimer:This is to just give an indication and you should consult an attorney for exact response.
1) Can the new company can file my H1b Extension based upon my previous company I 140 and receipt notice (Because due to delays my H1b is not approved for previous employer)?
Yes
2) What if, The new company don't file AC 21?
AC21 is better for scenario #3 though its not mandatory. You can give the EVL if asked during RFE
3) What if the previous employer cancel my I 140.
Technically you should be OK since 6 months have passed since 485 filing and the new job should be similar to the labor
Let me know what other problem can I face if I transfer my H1b to new employer.:confused:[/QUOTE]
Should be good as long as the new company is good and willing to continue the GC process.
