I will probably file a 2nd 485 based on perm

hh

I also have 2 485 pending at this time. I was also pretty confused last year whether to file a 2nd one because my lawyer told me you cannot file a 2nd 485. However, after talking to people on this forum( GINNU and others) I pushed my lawyer and she did her research and agreed to file it. As far...

well after multiple requests and wasting 6 months finally got an answer. Their (VSC) reasoning was that my first 485 was filed under NIW 140, when i was still doing my 3 year waiver . so according to their interpetation of law at the time of filing i was not not able to adjust the status. so...

It is possible under law and there is USCIS memo about it. However, they tend to deny interfiling.

VSC refused my 485 transfer from NIW to PERM.

I Can tell you about my experience with perm and niw with VSC.I filled concurrent 485/140 based niw in 2005 due to fear of impending retrogression( which did not come until july 2007) In 2006 i also got perm 140 approved. I completed my 3 year j1 requirement in 2006 and was very excited that...

gives me some hope on my pending 485 as I have not recieved any email and there is no LUD.Although getting late anything to come in mail now.

Hope for the best dude.

I sent the transfer request in july 2006 with pearson memo, medical exams and suppporting documents. In 9/06 i got first RFE for 1 year completion letter( standard for NIW 485) which was sent along with request that we are requesting transfer to perm.Got 2nd RFE in 10/6 asking for 5 year...

hi i will recomend going with employer B and forget about employer A or what he can do .If your waiver is not yet submitted to health dept through employer A then dont submit it and go with employer B specially if job conditons are good. If the start is bad with employer A and you have to beg...

Congrats. I guess you lucked out that he got an immigration officer who even called. This is probably one of those rare things as i have never heard anything like this. Usually for NIW they send you two RFE, first one is asking to provide evidence of 1 year completion and then end rfe for to...

I have exactly same situation but with VSC. In my case i requested the tranfer in July 2006. However, VSC has not acknowledge the reciept of transfer and continue to send me RFE as they are processing it as NIW based petition. I have since then sent them two additional tranfer requests with no...

well "always" is the key term you used. I did not mean to stay 100% of desi employers will be bad employers.In addition you were in a group and not with a solo practioner which also makes difference.I have seen abuses from non desi employers as well but i have seen more unhappy people with...

HI, Most of these big shot immgration attorneys charge an arm and a leg for filing NIW or perm or j1 waivers. You will mostly be dealing with paralegals or junior attoneys.Most of work is done by paralegals filling your forms and you will be responsible for supplying all the supporting...

I agree with hadron's assessment. I am in sort of similar sitaution with both NIW and perm approved but i filed a concurrent 485 with niw which i am trying to switch to perm(nightmare). I filed 485 with NIW because of impending retrogression that was/is coming. File NIW under self petition...

ARC waivers usually take more time to get approved since there is more inefficient bureacracy involved. i,e health dept----governor's office.....ARC. Finally transferring ARC waiver is more complicating because they want you to stay within ARC counties. think about it before you go for arc as...
