    Legal status while I-485 is pending

    Sorry to hear about your experience. As far as I understand ( I'm not a lawyer), as long as your 485 is pending, you are in legal status( your status is 485 pending). Did you talk to your immigration lawyer?

    Talked to an IIO

    Just talked to an IIO. He said they are processing Nov 2000 cases, my case (Sep 2001) would need to wait for another 6 months. The case would be assigned to an officer when that time comes up.

    Approved!!!

    What evidence of being in legal status did they request in the RFE? Having I485 pending automatically keeps one in legal status(i.e status is I485 pending), does it not?

    One possibility is to do consular processing in home country instead of adjustment of status(485).

    EAD to be filed for the THIRD time..anyone else on the same boat?

    I'm in the same boat. rd 485: 7/01 fp: 2/03 about to file third EAD. It's much safer to file the EAD than to bet on the 485 approval in 6 months.

    EAD without attorney

    I have an EAD with pending 485. My spouse is the principal 485 applicant. Now the company stopped paying for EAD renewal. I was wondering if I should file the EAD renewal myself, saving $200 in attorney's fees. Is filing a EAD something that should be done by an attorney? Is it common to...

    Use of EAD

    EAD tied to 485 Thank you for the information! Since EAD is tied to the 485 application, if a layoff occurs, does the EAD become invalid because the 485 application become invalid? Can the 180 day rule help?

    Use of EAD

    I\'m currently on a H1 and EAD and AOS applications are pending. Is EAD valid for a year from the date of approval? If the job is lost due to layoff after EAD is approved, can I use EAD as a legal status and continue to work(in other jobs) for a year? Or once the H1(and AOS) job is lost, EAD...
