    Britsimon is correct. Mine was current for Nov and I send in my AOS on the 18th Sept. They send me back on the 30th Sept. I sent back on the 1st Oct and it was accepted. There are many of us here with the safe experience. In your case send on Feb 1st, you will be safe.

    I don't think you need to inform the company unless it makes a difference to you. Probably you need to remove the restriction on your SSN. I don't see your name in the spreadsheet. Can you lease update for the sake of others?

    Thanks folks. The card came at the right moment. My daughter needs a SSN for her college application and the moment the we got today, we immediately went to the SSN office. Since it was Christmas eve, we were the only one there. It took us less than 20 mins to complete the paperwork and get...

    The automatic updates tells you when there are changes in your case. The updates are only useful towards the end when your EAD/GC gets approved. They even update you when UPS picks up your card.

    My "younger kids" are actually 16 & 17 yrs old. I told them to read the i485, ask me any question and they took that easy. Regarding the dressing, all those that I saw were in suit in Boston. My company immigration lawyer, told me to go in with a suit since I am a professional, it would make a...

    Additional pointers For dressing - Guys should wear a suit at least. My officer was in tie but his jacket was on his chair. In my case, the officer wanted to know how frequent i have been in US and for how long. It could be useful if one review the data before the interview. Some of my visits...

    Why U.S. Pursues Citizens Overseas / Important if you EVER consider living outside of the USA again

    I spoke to my lawyer abt this. As a green card holder, you can only live outside US for max of 2 yrs only. My son has to serve National Service in my home country for 2.5 yrs. According to my lawyer, he has to return before the end of the 2 yr period, file another extension and once it is...

    This varies. It depends on the case load of the FO but towards the last quarter it gets speed up because the DV has to be issued before Sept 30.

    I actually replied twice "No" to his question. For the rest of my family, he asked everyone once. My suspicion is when we drove over from Seattle in 2004 to Vancouver, the immigration officer did not remove our i94 which was stapled to our passport. This could be a red flag but I am not sure.
