If my wife uses the 485 based EAD to work, does she lose her L2 status automatically ?

If my wife uses the 485 based EAD to work, does she lose her L2 status automatically ?

Can my wife go from L2 based EAD to 485 based EAD and go back to using L2 based EAD in order to stay on non-immigrant status. Her L2 and the L2 based EAD expires end of this month. 485 based EAD expires end of 2007. Her L2 has been extended, but passport is not stamped. We have filed for...

What are people's experiences with MTR for 485. a) How long does it take to adjudicate ? b) If the denial was due to FP no show, has anybody been able to get a change in decision ?

I have seen this question asked earlier. My lawyer believes this message is posted when the original document mailed by USCIS gets returned to them (because it could not get forwarded to your forwarding address) and they check your address change through any AR-11 you have filed. In that...

I got an update on website saying Document OTHER THAN CARD mailed. I think this is most likely a fingerprinting notice. But my address has changed. So I have not received it. How can I find out when my fingerprinting is due without the notice. The lawyer also hasn't received anything...

I also got the same online status update today Current Status: Document OTHER THAN CARD manufactured and mailed. On Apr 3, 2007, we mailed the document we manufactured based on our earlier approval of this case, and mailed it to the address on we have on file. You should receive the new...

My FP was done right after i applied for 485. But there has been no LUD change in 4 months. Does that mean I am stuck in name check ? Should I take INFOPASS ? I recently changed my address. And sent a change of address to USCIS. And they updated my case address and the LUD also changed at...

My 485 was denied due to abandonment. We had filed a Motion to Reopen. Also, we filed a new 485 subsequently. Now after 5 months, USCIS has linked the 2 applications, and said we will consider the Motion to Reopen and proceed and let you know of our decision. Is this good or bad for me ?

Once the 485 based EAD is used for work, does it invalidate the L2 non-immigrant status automatically ? If yes, then once the L2 based EAD becomes available, is it possible to revert back to the L2 status. Does this require some "adjustment of status" type of application to be filed ? We...

my wife is working on the EAD based on the L2, which is about to expire. * Can the EAD renewal be filed "along with L2 filing" or "after L2 renewal is approved". * If the L2 renewal is approved, and EAD renewal has been applied for, can she continue to work ? Does she need to wait for EAD...

the attorneys are always notified of intent to deny 30 days prior to any denial. the website is not updated very frequently for denials. It is definitely updated for approvals. so work with your attorney to decide what to do quickly. May be you can file a motion to reopen if it is actually...

If the priority date is current and 485 is filed for retrogressed country applicant, is it true that INS officers do not even pick the file for 2 years ? (i read this on another forum) Is there any site which can provide an estimate of how long 485 processing takes for retrogressed country...

Do I need to have the L1 extension approved by USCIS prior to my current L1's expiry date. Or I just need to file for extension prior to the expiry for me to maintain my L status. (My L1 is based on a blanket L1 petition) Is the same valid for L2, and EAD based on L2 also for my spouse.

The priority date on 140 approval is correct. My case is tricky because my earlier 485 was denied, so i am concerned whether they have carried over the priority date onto the new 485 or not. A# and all other information is correct.
