VISA BULLETIN UPDATED november 8, 2002. Date is current!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, I know that. H-1b extension has to be submitted 1 year before 6th year expiration or it has to be pending for 365 days or you have to have approved LC before.

I am in a somewhat unique situation. I have two petitions that are running concurrently. 1) Employment petition. EB2 (rest of the world chargeability). I-140 approved on 4/20/09, received EAD in a week after submitting application, biometrics scheduled on 5/20/09. H1-b expiring 5/17/09 did...

Yes, I did. Just got the appointment for biometrics for May20th. I wander how much time to approve I-485 once biometrics is scheduled. Chronology I-140/I-485/I765/I-131 filed concurrently 4/17 EAD received 4/23 biometrics appointment 5/20 all under EB2 (area of chargeability is "other"...

Thanks!

If your H1b is expired and you have not submitted an extension, but have approved I-140 and valid EAD can you continue working for the present employer? In other words is valid EAD alone sufficient to work for employer despite having expired H1-b status?

Current H-1b expiring 5/17/09 (cannot extend since I failed to submit extension 365days before H-1b expiration) Have approved I-140 (as of last week). I-485 will follow next. Received EAD card last week. Do I still need (and can I?) extend my H-1b now or having the EAD in my hands is...

I got now less than three months left. :(

get rid of him.

^very informative. Thank you!!

Hi, When you say they are processing June 2008 cases under final review...are those cases which haven't had an audit?

ah, yes, you are right....misread

it moved 3 weeks not 2 weeks. it went from 2 july to 22 july in last month, but i know it does slow down.

I doubt it... At this rate I am looking at June. Damn it will be a close call!

Mermaid, Problem is I am legal until 05/17/09. I know that you can stay in the country once you file I-485, so if I send it in earlier (in anticipation of current PD) would that buy me some time from may to july....?
