    I-485 approved but need to travel ASAP. What to do?

    Hi I received email notification last night that my (and my wife's) I-485 have been approved and that cards have been ordered. My question is: I am scheduled to travel out of the country next week for ~45 days. This is an unavoidable and long planned business trip to Europe. Assuming...

    I-485 Approved?

    approved!! Hi Not sure if this is a coincidence, but a week after I contacted Sen. Clinton, I received email notices from USCIS that my I-485 had been approved and a card ordered. I suspect its just a coincidence because Sen. Clinton never responded. But its done now!!

    I-485 Approved?

    contacting senator Hi Splendini I too have an I-485 (EB-2) pending since 2005. After many many attempts I have been unable to find out why exactly it is being delayed. I now want to contact Sen. Clinton as well but don't quite know what to write in my letter (what documentation/details...

    Strange situation with I-485/Cross-Chargeability. What to do next?

    Hi Folks Thanks for your prompt response. I think I will wait a couple of weeks before contacting a congressman. Do you happen to know if USCIS generates a NEW Name/Security Check request for the FBI each time a person is (re)fingerprinted? Thanks

    Strange situation with I-485/Cross-Chargeability. What to do next?

    Hello I am in an odd situation regarding my I-485 and I was wondering if people can comment or provide advise/insight into what I should do next. I apologize for the rather long posting. My I-140 (EB-2/NIW) was approved in Nov 2004. I and my wife subsequently filed for adjustment in...

    Do I have to use EAD card after I use AP?

    Hi tnisha FYI, my H1b renewal was approved (a couple of weeks ago in fact). So an expired I94 didn't seem to matter. Best of luck with your application.

    Applying for EAD with a pending H1b extension application?

    Hi Ginnu Thanks for the prompt reply. It sets my mind at easy about applying for an EAD. As for my second question, I was intending to use the OLD AP to travel while the application for a new AP is still pending. My question was whether that was okay or not. I realize - as you pointed...

    Hi Aakash By "form available on the website" do you mean "privacy_request.pdf"? Did you have it notarized (as it says on that form) before mailing it in? Thanks very much

    Applying for EAD with a pending H1b extension application?

    Hello I have a couple of questions about filing for EAD/AP. I am currently on an H1b but last entered the US on advance parole. I have never applied for an EAD before. 1) Can I apply for an EAD while I have a pending application to extend my H1b (beyond the 6th year)? My university...

    Do I have to use EAD card after I use AP?

    Hi tnisha To answer your first question, I used AP to return to the US and continued to work on an H1b. I did NOT use an EAD (and in fact never applied for one). As for your second question, I recently applied for an extension of my H1b with an "expired" I-94. As far as I can tell...

    Concurrent Filing - Using Cross Chargeability

    I submitted mine to VSC. I simply called the 800 national customer service number listed on the USCIS home page. Also, my situation is somewhat different. I have an approved I-140 (EB-2/NIW) and a subsequently filed and currently pending I-485. All I want to know is whether they will...

    Concurrent Filing - Using Cross Chargeability

    Hi mwang1976 Did you ever hear anything back from USCIS re you cross chargeability petition? I sent in my request some 45 days ago and haven't heard a peep. No change in LUD either. I called them and they said to wait 60 days for a response before calling. Folks: if anyone has had a...

    Can I reenter US on AP if H1b is denied in Canada?

    Hello My H1b visa stamp has expired. I now have an H1b extension until 12/2006. I would like to go to Canada to get a visa stamp but I am concerned it may be turned down. (No real grounds for this feeling; just the usual paranoia.) Just in case, I have applied for Advance Parole...

    Concurrent Filing - Using Cross Chargeability

    Hello mwang I seem to be in exactly the same situation as you (EB-2 filed in Jan, now retrogressed, but spouse (dependent) from non-retrogressed country). In my case however, my wife filed her I-485 2 months after I did since she was out of the country when I filed. After speaking...
