FYI, I got my passport stamped at Boston on Oct 7. The cards were ordered on Oct 21 and we received the cards on Oct 26. Hope this gives you an idea of when to expect your cards. Good luck!

Re: This questions and AC-21 When the AC21 law was first introduced, a lot of people including lawyers pointed out that the "employment portability" part of of the law (which allows you to change the job after 6 months) seemed to contradict the earlier law which stated that the person must...

This is a grey area in the immigration law As per the law (Immigration and Nationality Act), if you accept an employment based green card, then you must have the intention of working for the sponsoring employer - otherwise you are committing immigration fraud. The law does not define what...

Terrorism, in and of itself, should not be a big factor for the reverse migration. At least I don't think so... Many of the immigrants who came here are from countries (e.g my native country India) that have long been ravaged by terrorism. Long before America and parts of the developed...

similar situation Hi Sajyra, My case was similar to yours...I also had not changed any employer for over 3 years, no address change or no birth certificate/marriage certificate issues etc. In short, everything was straightforward except for one small mistake - wife's DOB was wrongly listed...

I think it was around 3 weeks after I contacted both a Senator and a Congressman that I got my approval. However, I don't think either of them did anything to expedite the process. Other than doing an inquiry and advising me to wait for another 6 weeks, I don't think they made things move any...

details hi! Contacting Senators/Congressmen is not at all difficult in this country. First step is to obviously find out who your Senators and Congressman are. If you are not sure how you can find this out, let me know and I can point you to some web sites. Once you know the...

planning to go back I realize I am jumping into this discussion quite late but I am new to this particular forum. After hanging around in the 485 forum for a year and a half, I finally got my approval a few days ago. I am from India and have been living in the US for the last 7 years. We...

You don't need EAD As long as your I485 is pending, your status in the country is legal - you don't need AP, EAD, H-1, H-4 etc. It does not matter how long the I-485 remains pending. If the person is working, then obviously an EAD or H-1B is required for that and it will need to be renewed...

no reason to worry Hi, I doubt if your case is pending for any reason that is specific to your case. In general, the speed with which a case is approved after the RFE response is received appears to depend on whether the adjudicating officer (AO) still has your case with him/her. For reasons...

I was approved on 9/25 Hi guys! As I posted in a separate thread, I got my approval on 9/25. Ironically, I came to know about it only on 9/30 when I saw the approval notice in the mail. Earlier, I used to check AVM and visit this site everyday but then I stopped checking the AVM or browsing...

Notwithstanding the supposed audit, VSC is approving cases and mailing notices. My case was approved on 9/25, 2 months and 16 days after INS received my RFE response. After months of frustration checking the AVM everyday, I decided to give myself a break using this audit as the excuse. I was...

Me too... PD: Jan 2000 RD: Jul 11, 2001 ND: Aug 24, 2001 FP: Dec 7, 2001 RFE Issued: Jun 13, 2002 RFE Reply Recd by INS: Jul 9, 2002 RFE for G325A (biographic info) As regards the time taken for approval, I think that depends. As far as I can understand, here is how it works - once...

i think you have to wait for the RFE hi tusker75! As far as I know, you have to wait for the RFE and calling an IIO will not help. I don't think IIOs would know what the RFE was issued for and even if they did, I don't think they would tell you. I did not mean to scare or discourage you...

There was a thread a few days back about RFE cases that have been pending a long time. I wanted to add my details to that but for some reason it did not allow me to post and now I cannot find that thread. Anyway, here are my details - mainly for the benefit of those RFE sufferers who have been...
