Congrats on your 140 approval, Now to your qns.
1. The approval notice goes to your attorney. You can request a copy from him/her. Generally takes 5-7 days.
2. Looks like your PD is sept 2003 and you are EB3. If you belong to any of the retrogressed countries...
Since you are applying for a EAD which is a interim benefit of 485 pending, you can write 'AOS Pending' in this column...
I am sure, you would not write 'ILLEGAL'.
Good Luck.
qzahmed,
Congratulations on your 485 approvals. Check with your attorney...they must have received the I-140 approval. Sometimes we have seen in these forums that some people got their approval letters in mail without any message change or approval emails.
When you receive the 485...
TJ,
The category in which you can file I-140 is dependent on the requirements of Labor. Looking at your post, the labor has been filed in EB3 which means your wife's I-140 can only be filed in EB3 (it doesn't matter if your wife has the education/experience which fits her in EB2). Labor...
youry,
Actually, from my understanding of reading kansar's post...her husband is on H1 and not used EAD (they both have received EADs)...his current H1 has expired and has applied for a H1 extension which is still pending...
But you are right..using EAD invalidates H1. However in kansar's...
kansar,
since he has already got his I-140 approved..and just waiting on 485, I think he can use AP without any problems. Also, using AP doesn't invalidate H1 status. I am assuming that there is no criminal background....so your 485s shouldn't have any problems as you guys have crossed the...
rtinkam,
I am not sure who two people you are referring to? I know that one of the members (kishuibm) posted that "Retrogation doesnot work on my case !! Approved!!!" http://www.immigrationportal.com/showthread.php?t=169944
But if you look at his later posts...he was indeed EB2...so...
Looks like you are affected by retrogression...you are right..you might not be able to file 485 for quite sometime until your PD (Oct 1, 2004) becomes current...which is more than 2 years behind....
If the other company is ready to do a Labor Substitution in EB2 which will get your GC faster...

Hello Mesbah,
no news yet...still waiting..and waiting....I thought I will check my luck by calling the emergency number...tried it today evening....the person who answered the call was not ready to listen...and just mentioned " California Service Center....whats your emergency??"...I told...
Congratulations on your 140 approval. Even though your visa dates are not current (you might be couple of months away)....you are now eligible for AC21 shelter.
Good Luck with your 485.
What is the PD on the Labor being substituted?? and what category it belongs to?? EB2 or EB3??
Absolutely...go ahead and file I-140. You can file I-140 in 6th year of H1. If it is EB2 labor, file your 485 and EAD too. If its EB3 and you belong to a retrogressed country and your PD on the...
