I think there are 2 reasons for many RFEs recently. One, due to hightened security concerns in USA. Secondly, the new staff that was recruited in VSC. The veteran staff does know, what are the proper reasons to generate an RFE. The new staff, when they are not sure of any minor thing, just...

dodital You need to write AOS(Adjustment of Status) there. Bob

Sam99 If your visa is expired in the last 180 days, then you can get the revalidation at St. Leuis. If its beyond 180 days, you may have to go out of country and get a new visa in any American consulate. Can anyone confirm this 180 day period? Has BCIS changed this timeline lately? - Bob

Revoking I-140 My understanding after discussing with many of my friends is, normally the companies will not invoke I-140's, unless the employee leaves them within 180 days of filing I-485. I-140 is filed by company with assumption, hope that you will be employed with them for long time and...

Tangonta It might depend on your mode of travel. By Air or By Road. I went to Canada in 2000 May by road at Niagara Falls and also to Windsor from Detroit. My whole purpose was to get a new I-94, as I was changing the company and my new company wanted me to get a new I-94 so that INS records...

Definitely your Lawyer. Bob

Pulse No. The case will not be denied when I-140 is withdrawn by sponsoring company after 180 days of filing I-485. However, if an RFE comes for employment verification, you must be in a position to prove that you are employed and won't be a burden on Social Security system after your approval...

cmacti Definitely its a problem. Whats your status?

ChemGC New passport is not a issue in GC stamping. BCIS will stamp the GC in your valid passport (the new one). But, ensure that you carry both the passports, whereever you go. Bye the way, Congratulations on your approval. - Bob

I think they accept 1. BCIS 2. INS 3. US Department of Treasury - Bob

Vijguy You are absolutely correct. During April 2002, there were about 12 postings in Dice, Hotjobs, Monster from different companies about a requirement in Portland. The job description is very much same. The requirement was at Nike. Nike gave the requirement to its petty contractors and they...

lmk102630 Most of the times, when you go for renewing your existing driver's licence(same state), the DMV will not ask any documents. They do that in a way they normally do for American citizens and issue it for next 4 years. But sometimes, as eternity said, there will be some...

vijguy As you said, "IT MAY BE A PROBLEM ONCE YOUR GC GETS APPROVED AND GO FOR STAMPING. They will ask your latest I-94 during GC stamping and if they caught this cheating, then you guys may be in a big trouble." Logically, even during the GC stamping time, how the BCIS office knows that she...

EAD2003 Well, if you want to jeopardise your AOS process, you can do that. The sponsering company can withdraw I-140 application, even approved, within 180 days of applying for I-485. If that happens, you know what will happen. However, if the sponsering company doesn't have any issues with...

EAD2003 I understand you did concurrent filing. After your I-140 is approved, and its past six months since you applied your I-485, you can take advantage of AC21 clause and can change to similar job using your EAD. If your I-140 is not approved and though its already 6 months since you...

Do it yourself AR-11 form for address change is half page form, which you can fill it and send it. Mind you, the law says, you need to send it within 10 days of your address change. My understanding is it is to be done by the candidate only, not the lawyer. - Bob

Poornima_p The citizenship is for the individual, and is not family based. So, there should not be any problems in future for having different last names. Even for the American women, their maiden name is the one which is fixed and god knows (parden me for saying so) how many times it...

Delliwala If your RFE is for the photos, goto a photo center, where they take INS style photographs. Check when they take pictures, they have a light behind you which flashes at the same time the camera flash goes on. That way the shadows are avoided in INS style photographs. I went to couple...

lovensing If you are on H1, then you can take her to the americal consulate in India, along with documents proving that she is your daughter and your H1 documents. They will stamp her PP with a H4 visa and she can come here. If you don't want to go to India to bring your daughter, then send all...
