Any May filers around?

I just got back from my infopass to get my EAD expedited. They took the letter and said they would put in a request to expedite!!! The guy was really nice and helpful. I was expecting them to be rude and say no but that was a very pleasant experience. He said he would call me when they had submitted the request after it got approved by his supervisor!!! So hopefully I will have my EAD soon!!!

Oh My God! I am so happy!
K.ambrose and everyone, I got my interview letter today. Letter was issued on July 13 and I got it today July 20th. Interview is on Sept. 10.

I will update my signiture later as I'm on break break from work.

K.ambrose you should get you IL soon. I felt this one was coming...........:)
 
The guy from the DO called back saying that they had denied my request for expedition because my interview was so close and that I had passed namecheck and they didn't see any reason why I shouldn't be approved to work then!!!!

At least I know I have cleared namecheck:)

On the other hand no EAD:( What a waste of money!!!

Congrats on getting cleared for your namecheck but it's too bad they didn't go ahead and give you the EAD. Your interview is a month away and I think that's a lot of time. Let them not work for a month and see how they feel. Ahh well at least you know you have a really good shot a getting your stamp at the interview..again, congrats.

Hello my fellow may filers!

Still no IL or EAD for me (but I am a late may filer so I guess I need to be more patient).
Because of this, though, I decided to file for AP before the new fees kick in.
But I have a few questions:

1. As far as "Overstay", filing of which form (I-130 or I-485) cancels your overstay status / places you in an authorized stay? But I know you can send I-131 until 180th day of your overstay. I first sent I-130 and then 4 months later I-485.

2. I read that when you leave the country on I-131, the processing of your I-485 is "paused" until you come back from your trip. And then you need to resume it. Did I understand it correctly?

3 Should I send it to Chicago Lockbox? Or maybe to San Antonio DO or maybe to NBC?

But I bet that as soon as I apply for I-131, I will get my IL (Murphy's law).

I first sent I-130 and then 4 months later I-485. Filing for AOS (I-485) places you in Pending Status. The I-130 does not give you any status. But your overstay is counted from the day your I-94 stay expired to the day USCIS received the I-485 (the receipt date). If that is more than 180 days DO NOT TRAVEL until you get your GC

2. I read that when you leave the country on I-131, the processing of your I-485 is "paused" until you come back from your trip. And then you need to resume it. Did I understand it correctly? Where did you read that? I do not think that is true.

3 Should I send it to Chicago Lockbox? Or maybe to San Antonio DO or maybe to NBC? Send it to the Chicago Lockbox, they will send it to the NBC.

Anyways... I hope it goes well.
 
Hey PraetorianXI,

thanks for your response. Well my overstay until the USCIS received my I-485 application was 123 days, so I am good. And as far as this info about resuming your I-485, I read it in the instructions for I-131. But maybe I misunderstood something. Here it is:
"Travel Warning
Before you apply for an advance parole document, read this travel warning carefully.

...Therefore, if you apply for adjustment of status after you return to the United States, resume an adjustment application that was pending before you left, or return to a status that requires you to establish that you are not inadmissible, you will need to apply for and receive a waiver of inadmissibility before your adjustment application may be approved or your status continued..."

I am still thinking if there is a point in applying for I-131, i need to travel in October, so I have this feeling I may get my visa by then, but who knows what if I get stuck on the name check. I only had one LUD after my biometrics. What do you think I should do?:confused:
 
Hello all,

I'm new here, I'm also a May filer, late May, looking at a number of the threads here, it looks like alot of you have got RFE's on your I-485, I also received on regarding my i-864. I'm wondering if this will set back my EAD, was working here on a TN, that expired last friday, had to take a unpaid leave from work.... I'm excited to see people are starting to get there EAD's, I'm wondering if anyone has any idea if receiving a RFE is going to have any implications on the EAD, and set back that approval process.

I hope you get your IL soon, MadgaJ, because I want to know what interview dates to expect from the San Antonio DO!

Praetorian, just curious, does photography pay on par with math/CS type jobs?
