    Visitors visa for parents while son entered in US as "parolee"

    I could not find an answer by search, so I am crossposting this alongside I485 board. I plan to enter US this year as "parolee" as I have advance parole document. My parents plan to visit me next year. Do you think their visitor visa application may be denied since I entered as "parolee"?

    Laid-off when approaching 6th year in H1B

    Once the I-140 is approved for more than six months, your employer won't be able to cancel it. Your H1 visa doe snot have any connection to I-140 anyway. New employer will be able to issue a new H1 (H1 transfer is an oxymoron) without any problem (I assume you have pending GC application). Once...

    Multiple job change under AC21?

    Thanks Ginnu. Quick question, by new LCA do you mean a new I-140? And in case of a new I-140, would that push back my priority date even further?

    Is I-485 Medical Re-exam necessary?

    Medical report is valid for one full year. Talk to the persons from whom got it initially. I believe all you have to do is get a second set of documents based on your earlier records.

    I guesss my attorney goofed up; concurrent filing of I-485/131/765

    I got the reply back from my attorney (Fragomen! Yikies). Yes, they filed with old fee schedule to save 200 bucks upfront, leaving me to deal with endless renewal fees for AP and EAD. Correct me if I am wrong- I have to pay fees for renewal of AP/EAD if my application was filed with older fees...

    Hi folks, As far as I understand, my attorney should have pay $1010 for my concurrent filing of I-485/131/765 back in August 14th, 2007 after the fee increase. When I was calculating costs reported on I-485 ($395, may be $325 +$70 for biometrics)/131 ($170)/765($180) and biometrics($80) the...

    My EB2 case filed through FDBL too and I-140 was approved some time early last year. Definitely, the news is not very good.

    PLEASE HELP! I-485 pending >180 days, now laid off during vacation

    First, Ginnu- thanks a ton. My I-140 is approved long ago. First three years of H-1 is about to expire by end of November this year. So reentry should not be an issue for now. Once I am back to US, should ask my to-be employer to issue me fresh H-1 again or do I have to use EAD to get into this...
