I am going through the requirements of filing I130 for my parents. There are a couple of queries I'm not sure I have answers to, so would like to get some advice on: 1. Can AoS (I485) be filed for parents (concurrently or after getting I130 approved) if they are in the US on a B2 (visitor)...

Guys, I am entering 5th year of GC and lately have been forced to change my address frequently (in 1 month gaps) by circumstances. I have been filing AR11 online as I change address. Would the frequent changes in address cause any issues at the time of applying for citizenship. I do expect...

Gurus, Need some advice on a situation. I have an acquaintance who has completed 5 yrs on H1B and would move to H4 soon. I understand H4 status is linked to H1B primary being in-status thereafter but is there a time limit for H4 as well like its 6 yrs (excluding any LPR related extensions) for...

I posted this on a different forum but I suppose this is where it belongs to. Hi guys, I received my GC a couple of weeks back. Though it was such a big relief, I just realized that the A # on it is different from the one on I485 Receipt notice. Is it something that's possible and nothing...

Hi guys, I received my GC a couple of weeks back. Though it was such a big relief, I just realized that the A # on it is different from the one on I485 Receipt notice. Is it something that's possible and nothing to worry about (for one, my wife's GC has the same A# as on her receipt notice)? I...

Hi gurus, Ginnu, TheRealCanadian, We just realized that my wife's name on her I485 application, filed in Jul 2007, was spelled incorrectly. As a result, her name on I485 receipt notice is also incorrect. However, its correct on filed G325A and all other forms (I765 and I131). She already has AP...

CIS released statistics on pending applications. The footnote lists major volumes of specific applications, however, there is no mention of I-140. Its surprising since they even mention I90 which has only about 63k pending. By my estimate there were about 250k I-140 pending by end of Sep 07. So...

Guys, I am thinking of applying for AP. I am wondering what kind of addendum to write to explain warranting issuance of AP (for Part 7(1)). I checked the sticky post, and the example there was more for people who either are using EAD or are getting close to H-1B expiry date. I want to apply...

Folks, I am thinking of filing for AP NOW and here's what I am looking to get an opinion on: I might travel abroad in December and if I do, I'd get H-1B stamped to re-enter. However, question is what'd happen to the pending AP (assuming its still pending which is highly likely)? Would it...

I received the I797C, notice of action for AOS application filed last month and noticed an A # in the "Applicant" box right above my name. Is it what's called an Alien number. I have had an alien number through the EAD filed for OPT when I was on F1 which is different from this one on I797C. I...
