Hi,
My mother just got her immigrant VISA approved through consular processing (category=IR5). It expires in October 2019. I realize that she must travel to the United States before the expiration, but wasn't sure if there is a timeframe that she must move her belongings by. Those will likely...
Hi,
I intend to apply for my parents GC in February. They intend to travel to the US in June with no intent of staying here permanently on this visit.
Should I hold off on sending in the GC application until their visit? If yes, until they get here or until they have left?
Thank you
Hi,
I'm about to petition for my parents but they didn't certify their marriage until after I was born. So the marriage certificate says they were married when I was ~6 years old. My father's name is on my birth certificate. The instructions clearly state that the marriage certificate should...
SSN question
onemorewaiting:
Sorry I can't answer your SSN question...my wife already had an SSN (since she came into the country in 94 on an F-1)...so she did not have this issue. I hope someone else can answer your question.

Just thought I'd share this with everyone in case they are in the same boat we were in.
We went to the Denver office and were able to get an EAD for my wife. The 90 days are NOT over (RD - 9/30/02) and we had not even received her 485 receipt yet. With my lawyer's help, I was able to obtain...
Thanks Sahin
I'll give this a shot. The biggest concern right now is actually receiving the 485/765 receipts. Mine are in but my wife (who needs to use the EAD) does not have hers in yet. Once we do, I'll go to Denver and give it a shot.
I really appreciate all your help. Thanks again!!
I am a little confused here....I thought the local office only gave EADs when 90 days are over at the Service Center. I didn't think that you could apply directly at the local INS for the EAD WITHOUT applying at the service center. If you CAN do this, why wouldn't everyone do this, since for...
Thanks Sahin!!
Yes, I do have the I-140 approved. But I have applied for EAD through the CSC. Should I have instead directly applied at Denver? Can I still do that?? Could you or anyone else please guide me in the correct direction.
Thanks.

What is required if one decides to go to the local office and try to get an interim EAD while a 765 application ins pending (in my case, 765 is with CSC)? This is the list I have obtained so far:
765 application form
2 photographs
485 receipt
money order OR Cashier's check for $120...
rawager,
I am interested in what you mean when you say "non-monetary gift"? What do they give you and how? I would imagine that whatever they give (as compensation) will have to be filed in their taxes. Do you know of any examples of what employers have done in the past? I just need to know...
Actually, my wife already has a SSN. She came to the US on an F-1 in 1994 (when they were giving out SS numbers to Interenational students).
On another note though, she hasn't yet told them about the EAD situation (that she can't work for pay yet). We are still trying to figure out what the...
Thanks for the reply jbm!!
Yeah...we had thought about the voluntary thing but we are not sure if a company would be willing to do this (they might be afraid to do this even though there is nothing illegal in it).
I guess we'll just have to try the EAD at the local office. Three months...
Hi:
My 485 was just filed yesterday at CSC and I have heard that some local offices (in my case Denver) will issue you an EAD even if your 90 days aren't over. Has anyone had any experience with this (preferably in Denver, any other office info would be helpful too)?
My wife has an offer...
