hi, luckymb, I just found out your checklist has I140 receipt. Company won't give I140 receipt out, do you know if I140 receipt is required? My I140 is pending.

I happened to check the online status of my H1->H4 application and it's approved today. Center: VSC MD: 9/13 RD: 9/16 ND: 9/21 AD: 10/15 On 10/7, I mailed my H1 pay stubs to them because I forgot to put it in the original package. I don't know if they have used it or not. Sigh, Hoped...

thank you, luckymb. I haven't filed my I485/EAD/AP, I'll file I485 only and get EAD from local INS.

hi, luckymb, thanks for posting your experiences of getting EAD from local INS in Boston. I live in Boston. I learned from INS website that only after 90 days you mailed application for EAD, and you don't get it, you could go to local INS for a temporary one. In your case, did the local...

I filed my H1->H4 on 9/12/2002; however, I got an offer today. If offer is finalized and company would like to sponsor H1 for me, I'd like to go for premium H1 processing. Could someone kindly tell me what's the best way to cancel my H1->H4 petition most efficiently? Although making phone...

thanks! I'll right be on my way to mail paystubs. x admin

thanks, ramfan! Did your wife change from H1? I was previously H1 holder; although I539 form instruction didn't mention H1 paystub, I feel they would like to see it nowadays. Would it hurt if I send them paystub copy before they request it?

I sumitted my H1->H4 petition on 9/12; my H1 was valid until 9/16. However, I didn't include my pay stub copy. Will I get RFE? I got receipt from INS; should I send them my pay stub with copy of the receipt ASAP? Should I send the pay stub of week of 9/12 or 9/16? thanks,

thanks jaxen, could you explain this in more detail? If my 140 approved; but before 180 days of 485 filing, either I got laid off or I changed job. If INS finds out about this, what'll be the consequences and what I could do to keep my 485 application valid? So I know that one could always...

jaxen, thanks "Even if employer lays you off you have EAD to move into another shop as soon as I140 is approved. It is an insurance for the future." Is this true only assuming employer won't revoke 140 or lay off occurs after 180 days of filing 485? Looking back all posts on the board, I...

it's said $18 for FBI fingerprint process. Is it for one person or one package? If we as couple, have 2 fingerprint forms for processing, how much needed? $36 or $18? thanks,

jaxen, thanks a lot and more Qs when filing 765, copy of previous EAD is needed: is OPT EAD considered in this case? why "It is better to have EAD option open instead of relying on employer's (new or current) for h1 status"? Is this true even for layoff situation with the assumption that...

thanks, but more Q I heard that if my spouse used AP, then it's required to use EAD to work in the current company. However, if my spouse use 180 days rule and change job later, can the new company sponsor a new H1? Am I, as a dependent of 485 main applicant, required to use EAD to work...

My spouse is considering applying for EAD for me using concurrent filing of 140 and 485. I have questions under 2 senarios: 1. Can I use EAD to find a job; later, if my spouse's GC is in jepardy because of job insecurity, can I ask my company to apply for H1 for me? 2. If I find a company...

vdshri: what's your ND? Based on cases filed from Mar to Jul, ND should be within 10 days later than RD. ND indicates INS begins working on your case. thanks,

newbie's question I learned a lot from your posts. This make me feel more comfortable about CP. Could I say "if my case could be approved by AOS, it would be approved by CP had I chosed CP"? I have 2 questions about CP: I just filed my I140. The lawyer said I could still make decision to...

I'd like to use p.o.box as my address in INS forms (not AR11) to avoid mail forwarding. Is that acceptable? :confused:
