    AVM changes to "request additional information", what dose that mean?

    No Title That means an RFE has been generated on your i-485 application on the specified date. Usually, RFE\'s are generated after FP when your application is ready for adjudication. This is surprising because you mentioned that you haven\'t yet done your FP.

    What are the reasons for I-485 denials?

    No Title You will definitely get the chance to defend yourself. And as you probably know, 245(i) has now been extended by 4 more months. So, you can definitely use it if you get a denial notification before the renewed deadline for 245(i) expires.

    What are the reasons for I-485 denials?

    No Title 245(i) covers all immigrants who are either currently out of status or have been out of status at one point in time. The main beneficiaries are those who cannot leave the country because based on the duration of their illegal status, they are barred to re-enter for 3 to 10 years.

    Hi Manish Varma, sorry but it seems to be Denial.

    No Title That is totally wrong. Labor does not have category attached at all. Category is specified only at the time of i-140. In lay man\'s terms, labor is done to prove that there is no available American citizen or permanent resident who is qualified for the position and agrees to accept the...

    Hi Manish Varma, sorry but it seems to be Denial.

    No Title This seems like a silly mistake on the part of INS. I am positive, it will be resolved as soon as pointed out. I\'ve heard of multiple such mistakes and all of them got resolved pretty quickly. Best of luck. Hope, you get your approval soon.

    RFE Responded to today...

    No Title Usually it takes about 5 - 7 business days for the INS to record the receipt of RFE after the letter is physically delivered to them. My RFE response was delivered to VSC on the 25th of April and the AVM says, "... received on May 3rd...".

    No Title I don\'t really know what else can you do to keep your application pending at this point, especially after having completed the FP. I would strongly recommend you to consult a good immigration attorney right away.

    No Title Pay stubs are asked primarily to confirm that the person is currently employed and will not be a public charge. Pay stubs from the other employer is fine as long as the sponsoring employer is ready to give you a prospective employment letter. For this, the 180 days rule (2045) does not...

    No Title Remember, GC is for a future job. As long as your sponsoring employer is ready to give you a prospective employment letter in case of an RFE, you are very safe to join another company. I would, however, recommend talking to an attorney.

    I-485 filing with spouse on H1B status

    No Title Yes, my case was similar. The only difference is that my wife\'s SSN card doesn\'t say \'Valid for work\' instead it says \'Valid for work only with INS Authorization\'. My wife got her H1 approved but never joined the company due to pregnancy. In the mean time my i-140 got approved...
