NP not expired - can I use it? Hello everyone, quite a heated discussion with no real answers indeed :) . Quick question... If I have my NP that hasn't expired yet and I want to travel to a country that does not require a visa because of my nationality. Do I still need to get a visa for an...

Yep, that's what I suspected too guys. Probably not the smartest idea. Although I hear some horror stories of some countries not really recognizing that new RTD of our's because the immigration officers haven't seen anything like that before and give you all kinds of hard time. I still wonder...

Hello everybody, I was wondering (even though I have a valid RTD) whether I can use my national passport to enter countries that do not require a visa for nationals of my state... For example when arrive at the airport, I could just show my passport instead of an RTD to avoid extra scrutiny...

Holy moly I hope I can at least take a shower in one of those bracelets! :eek: Well but to put the jokes aside for a second lets really analyse this first paragraph: "Immigrant rights advocates have expressed concerns about plans by federal immigration authorities to outfit some foreign...

Yeh I heard that too! I also heard the asylees will have their legs chained and will be forced to wear electroshock collars.

Well I don't know why you people missed this paragraph which reads: "the Immigration and Naturalization Service completed an investigation into your identity and background. It appears that you were not eligible for asylum or adjustment of status at the time you received either status" but it...

Like I wrote before, my timelines are similar as yours, my EAD receipt also said 21 days, however it took them 3 months, so did the Approval Notice after the Recommended Approval. I don't think there's any organization out there that will help you at this stage, technically you don't have the...

Oh gee so actually about 3 months after the Recommended Approval I received the Approval Notice with my new I-94 in the mail. INS also asked to come to the BCIS office to pick-up the EAD card but I filed for it after the recommended approval, checked online today and that was also approved...

Cmmon Shamshon and Gilbert, seems like you've been here for so long you can no longer see the light at the end of the tunel. And don't tell me there is no light, cause there is. At least someone (like "nofreedom") is trying to pursue things that most of the folks here have given up on. To...

I guess the question is whether you'll need a social security number to register your company. Don't know, haven't done that, just a thought... On the other hand side, if you're not allowed to work until you revceive your EAD why would they allow you to derive income from your own buisness...

Yes sure, I got my Recommended Approval in May 27 and still no news about the Approval Notice. Applied for an EAD 50 days ago, the receipt said it will take 21 days to process, the website status says it'll take 90! So while Rec. Approval can be great news in general, it's just really a tease...

This is a very busy forum. If someone could give me some input on the following questions I'd appreciate it: 1. Does anybody know if the parents (residing in the home country) can obtain a tourist visa to come visit their asylee children in US? 2. My wife received a derivative asylee...

This does not make sence guys. So what if it's been a few years, you have the GC through marriage and there' no longer the danger factor you were trying to escape in your country? There has to be some sort of statute of limitations for asylum cases, otherwise, according to this theory, INS can...

Congrats buddy! At least some one's getting some answers. That's good news, thank you. Yeh the lady mentioned the interim EAD but she said I can get it only after 90 days elapsed. Well anyway, good to hear that things might look up sooner than expected. Regards

Ouch. Checked the status online today on this, it's been changed from 60-75 days to 75-90 days. This just makes me sick. Called againg to see what's going and was told to disregard the dates in the receipt because the website database is much more accurate. Does anybody know a good...
