Thanks Jupiter 07. That's very helpful. Do you remember your daughter's interview? Was it difficult or just a formality?

I got my passport stamped last week:D at the interview. I have a 14 years old son, who's sponsored by my husband as well. While my lawyer always told me that if I get approved, he will be automatically, the immigration officer, at the interview, told me that I will receive in the mail an...

Actually, once my son got the biometrics taken, at the fingerprints office, the officer said that I could have gone to the Social Security office and ask for the SSN for my son, because he had the bios already taken, so, even without the EAD (which he applied for) you can still get a SSN, valid...

I agree with you, also because I already have a SSN (which, by the way, you can obtain before you receive the EAD card, as long as you have the biometrics taken..). Being married to a US citizen, makes you immediately eligible for work, but not authorized yet, until you apply for the EAD. At...

I don't think you understood. The employer HAS to file I-9 for any employee, citizen or not. It's the law. And I know I am getting the GC through my husband. As you see, my question was different..never mind.

How can you say that it's illegal? In the form I-9 that all employer have to file when they hire someone new, is written: "If employees are authorized to work, but are unable to present the required document(s) within three business days, they must present a receipt for the application of the...

I applied for the GC through my husband, a US citizen, as well as for the EAD. I received the Notice of Action (I-797C) for it, but not the actual EAD yet (I expect it by mid-December). My question is: can I start working with the Notice of Action, without the actual EAD? I got a great job...

Thank you for your suggestion. Please, check this link. A little dated info, but there is where I read about it. http://www.shusterman.com/cgi-bin/ex-link.pl?www.kamya.com/aos/

I heard that if my husband and I file in person all the docs in Boston (I-130, I485, EAD, AP, and so on), the EAD and AP are issued immediately, the same day I apply for them. My question is: Is it true? Also, we don't live in MA but in CT. Can we apply in MA? Thanks.

And that is what I will do. I will talk to a lawyer and if he will suggest that it is better to wait a few months, I will do it (not for too long though, because otherwise I will go out of status). And, by the way, me and my BF know each other for the last 4-5 years, and started our...

Thank you cherr1980. That's comforting.

Hi LucyMo, no my boyfriend and his soon-to-be ex-wife are both born and grown up here. I actually might take into consideration both your advises, which means maybe wait a few months to apply after the wedding, and still get a lawyer. It is so easy to make mistakes. Thank you very much to all...

Thank you Atlanta Brother! My only issue is that my LC through my employer didn't go well because I will be laid off very soon, and my H1-B will expire in September 2008 (7th year renewal). So I actually need to get married and file for adjustment of status right away in order to be able to...

Hi, my boyfriend's divorce (he is a U.S. citizen) will be final over the summer. How long after that do we have to wait in order to get married and apply for my adjustment of status, EAD, etc.?:confused:
