    I-485 question

    If anyone is in the same boat as I, you have nothing to worry about. I talked to my lawyer and the answer to that question is 'NO'. Unless you commited a criminal, not civil offense, you should be fine.

    I_765 question about dependant

    Hi, I am filing my 485 and have to fill up form I-765 for my spouse as well. Question 16 is about the eligibility category. I am now on an H1-B so I know my category is (c)(0)(9). Would the same category be applicable to my spouse or is there a different category for dependants? minxx.
