    To File AC21 or Not?

    Not to discourage anyone from filing AC-21, but I after consulting 2/3 lawyers decided not to file AC21 since they told me that it was not required and there is no rule per se, that says we MUST file AC-21. I switched companies after 8 months of applying for 485. Since GC is based on FUTURE...

    When to renew EAD?

    It is good to renew soon, the new policy of USCIS is to issue EAD's with start dates from the End Date of your old EAD. :D Which means you will NOT loose any days/months as was previously. So better to apply soon. I applied 3 months before the expiry and got it in about 3/4 weeks - but...

    Are they on dope or what??

    One more thing, my EAD got approved with start dates from my old EAD expiry date. This is NICE, since previously I used to loose 2/3 months on my EAD/AP. Atleast we can now save some money and time on this new and sensible rule from USCIS. Good Luck all.

    Opinions / help needed - Name on AP Document

    This is only a guess, but I would still call USCIS and ask them whether it is ok to travel with a name misprint. Since you say that your middle name has an extra initial, it might not be a problem usually you are tracked by your Last name and then first name, but please check with USCIS...

    Lost 2.5 months -- NSC very bad

    Its every Center Its just not NSC that does this, all service centers issue EAD/AP's not from the day of expiry of the previous cards but when they process it. If you see it from a financial angle, it makes a lot of sense for INS to do this, imagine thousands of people spending $500-1000 on...

    Why EAD process is slow?

    This really sucks, Its like we are waiting for some free service. We pay hundreads of dollars every year (actually every 6 months) and buy 3-4 month sleepless and tension filled months. If you see it from the USCIS angle, its no wonder that all the GC's are now held back - that makes each and...
