LongGC, I have asked my Lawyer to extend or file a new H1 for me since I had issue with my expired H1 with the border patrol, although, I have pending I-485. My Lawyer told me that this is no longer possible because I have used EAD and already exhausted my 6 years of my H1. I have a...

Congratulations, Your long and frustrating wait is finally over.

sg_rg2, My hunch tells me that the transfer have something to do with my encounter with the border patrol because this has happen in the town right after Harlingen. I just hope BCIS Harlingen office will not use this against me when adjudicating my case and my family cases.

My case together with my family have been transfered to local BCIS office in Harlingen, Texas on June 18, 2003 for further processing. There is no mention of interview in the notice that I have received. I live and work in Houston and have a pending case (NTA) before an immigration...

I suggest that you go ahead and extend your H1. Earlier, I have posted my experience about Border officer who do not understand the intricacacies of I-485, EAD and H1. I ended up getting an NTA (Deportation proceedting) although, I have a valid EAD and I-485 application since July 2003...

deputydawg, Thank you for your insight. I guess we just have to live with some officers who do not understand the law and made a mistake in performing their job. But, then this mistake will cost me a lot of money and time not to mention the sleepless night and axiety that I am going through.

goastros, I did consult a good immigration attorney. He said that the Border Patrol clearly made a mistake in giving an NTA for violation of my status. He might probably be able to cancel the NTA before the hearing date. But then again, this is a removal hearing and it should be treated...

I have explain to the officer and to there supervisor in charge that since I have a pending I 485 I am in legal status. But the supervisor in charge have argued that there is a new ruling that I 485 receipt notice and EAD alone is not a proof of legal status. One must have a valid H1 to be in...
