Hi: I just moved to a new job out of state. The rest of my family is still living at our old address. So I am living in a temporary housing for a month. I may have to stay in a hotel after the lease of rental house ending and before my permanent house is settled. Do I need to file...

Called TSC last Friday. could not get anything out of the lady officer. Any question I aksed, name check clearance, recapturing earlier PD, over-60 days not-answered SR, she would not give any answer at all. Should I go for Infopass? What is your experience? Thanks in advance.

I have two LCs, two I-140 approved. My I-485 application was twice returned when we filed as EB2 using the ealier LC (which is EB3) date, and only got accepted in June 07 when the EB2 PD became current. But when I first applied for EAD/AP, the only LUD was on the EB3 I-140. I called last year...

Frankly, after so many years in this waiting game, I do not think I would have any energy left in me to move to a new employer and start this process all over again, should my application get denied. So I do not care much about preserving my H status. I just want to stay/work legally till a...

Thanks for all the reponses. Per your understanding, jk0274, what should the time frame be between entering with AP and filing H-1B extension? I do not think there is a clear answer. For some, their H-1b needs to beextended after the trip anyway. For mine, I do not need to extend it till...

Here is my situation. Welcome your comments. Returned using AP in Nov 07. H-1B is good till 9/2009. My understanding of the Cronin memo is that I am still on H-1b till 2009. But I keep hearing different interpretations even by lawyers. I talked with two lawyers from the firm I retained...

I used AP last year. So on the form, I should put PAROLED as class of admission. Am I right? Is this the same as last entry status? For H4, who has not gone our of the country since I-485 filing, it should still be H4. Please let me know if I am right. Also checks should be paid to...

Do I have to inform USCIS? If yes, how? Thanks.

For paper filing of EAD/AP renewal, do we need to get figureprinted? Now I am comparing paper and E filings, I think paper filing is more convinient if you do not want to drive to the service center for photo etc. Am I correct? My question is if we need figureprinting for these...

1. yes. 2. yes. 3. I would put down JFK international airport.

The only drawback Seems to me the only drawback of E-filing is one has to go to the service center for pictures etc. Am I right? Thanks.

I am getting ready to renew my EAD. I entered US last year using AP. So on Form I-765, item 14, manner of last entry should be paroled. How about item 15, current immigration status? According to the Cronin memo, I am still on H-1B even after using AP for entry. What should I put on item...

Mine too There was a LUD on 12/30/07 on my approved I-140. I have had no LUDs on my i-485 since the one supposed for FP. There was a LUD on another already approved I-140 (I have had two) when my EAD/AP were approved. I do not have my H-1Bs on the online status portfolio, so I do not know...

Would you please clarify? Did your new employer repeat word by word of the part of duties petaining to your new duty, or the whole list that is on the LC application? In another word, if your duty on LC is A+B+C, your new duty by using AC21 is A+B. Is that your case? Thanks.

I am currently working for a small company. My job duty is very broad, from development, process engineering to quality control. If I find a job in the same industry with a big company, the job duty would include only development and process engineering. Would this be considered "similar"...
