    What is the meaning of this status? "This case has been sent for a standard interview

    This is the same as my situation. My wife is the primary though (EB-2) and she got her green card and I received a transfer on 9/12/2007. I haven't received anything since.

    Please help me understand this Interview business

    Thanks all for the responses. I don't think I have anything to be worried about, I was just curious as to why they decided to call me, the dependent, and not my wife, and it is an employment based case. Anyhow, we'll cross that bridge when we get there.... I'm focused on trying to get them...

    Interim EAD - Still available or not !

    Although the appointment system still allows you to choose that option for an infopass appointment, they no longer grant you interim EADs at the local offices. I had an appointment to get one two weeks ago and the agent at the office told me that they no longer hand out temp cards.

    can anybody tell me what LUD is?

    LUD stands for Last Updated Date. You can check this if you create an account for yourself on https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/index.jsp and enter your receipt numbers. That will create a portfolio of your cases and will display the LUDs. I don't know if anyone could tell for sure what...

    AP pending for 90 days - Expedite possible?

    Thanks for the info. Yes.. in my case those LUDs have proved to be nothing but smoke.... I guess whenever they move a pile of papers from one desk to another the LUD gets updated. I had originally planned to travel for my work assignment and apply for a visa if I didn't get my AP in time...

    Experience: Travel while AP renewal pending

    Yes, makes sense. I'm surprised my piece of **** lawyer didn't say anything. He simply said that you could travel and get back on the AP or get an H1-B... he knows I still didn't get my EAD. I got an infopass and visited the center the other day to be told that they don't issue temp EADs...

    Experience: Travel while AP renewal pending

    So entering on an AP invalidates my H1-B status? I'm waiting for both EAD and AP, both over 90 days. I need to travel abroad for a work assignment, I was hoping that AP gets approved and I wouldn't have to apply for a visa, but what you're saying means that I need both to get approved if I...

    Experience: Travel while AP renewal pending

    I'm confused... I still hold a valid H1-B notice, my stamp has expired. I sent an email to my lawyer asking about leaving while the AP is pending and his answer was that "Travelling abroad while waiting for AP is not abandonment", and that if it is issued while I'm away then I could...

    AP pending for 90 days - Expedite possible?
