I e-filed my AP yesterday and was wondering if I should mail my supporting documents to a lockbox or the address mentioned in the e-filed confirmation receipt? Also the new free schedule takes effect tomorrow, so do I have to mail/postmark my supporting documents by today or it doesn't...

Thanks for the update. And good luck and lots of patience... we both need it :)

Very interesting. Clearly there were no visa numbers available in Feb '08 for your category (which is exactly the same as mine). Right? Please keep us posted

If we are taking about dependent (not primary) claiming benefits on EAD (not H1), I don't see a problem. My spouse who is also on EAD has claimed unemployment. Her 485 application is dependent on mine. I know more than one person who did the same and eventually received their GC without issues...

So I guess our suspicion was correct: "Preadjudication of Visa Number Retrogressed Cases: Preadjudication means the agency completes adjudication but for approval pending the visa number availability for each applicant in the future. This preadjudication practice is made possible because of the...

So I just got the RFE in the mail. It's for not doing the skin test procedure for TB or explaining why it should be waived in our I-693 application. A long time ago, some officer had warned that I should get this test done because that had been flagged on our file but I decided to wait until I...

nothing yet. i will call the lawyer on monday.

sorry, you have mistaken me for someone else. i dont even know whats a dv form!

Atleast we know our files are not lost in some dark cellar!

I think they are spring-cleaning. With hardly new GC cases to work on due to retrogression or much H1b demand, they don't have much work to do so they are dusting off old cases to see which ones can be easily denied and which ones can be conditionally approved (until visa numbers are available)...

Thanks for info and words of encouragement. But my PD makes my case impossible to be adjudicated positively (as in issue of a visa number for my green card) in the next few years. But if they want to deny, sure, there is no retrogression for that ;) Anyway, I am not too stressed about it...

So I finally get an 485 RFE for both my case (primary) and my spouse. Just an email, nothing in the mail. This will be my first RFE in the tens of applications I sent to USCIS over the last 8 yrs. And that too when my case has no chance of approval for years to come. Anywa, will keep you posted...

I just got the approval today. Took less than a month and it was paper-filed. The online status never worked though.

Same here. Was always able to add the case to my portfolio but this time its giving me the "can't find case" error for both adding and just doing a case search. Hopefully its a temporary glitch in their system.

Just FYI: My EAD was approved in 30 days (paper filed in TSC)

I met my lawyer and surprisingly he has asked me to continue working if the employer hasn't asked me to stop. He said he has never seen a case rejected for "small" EAD gaps (if the combined gap is under 180 days). So there you have it.. I am going to try my luck and continue working without EAD...

If you look at this poll: http://www.immigrationportal.com/showthread.php?t=278567 it shows there was a glut of EB3 applications from 2001-03. Combine that with much lower quota in this category, there's bound to be some lag compared to EB2. Like I had mentioned earlier, only a legislative...

If she has used her EAD, then I would guess her current status for that field would be "A.O.S. (adjustment of status)". But don't take my word for it....especially if you are working on a valid H1 and her H4 has also not expired (in terms of validity date). This may be one of those corner...

You are obviously a troll with nothing positive to contribute in these forums. If you want to be taken seriously, I suggest you create a new account and start from scratch as you've lost any respect or reputation under this username, if you had any.

Wow, you take pleasure from being abused.. what's the word for people like you.. masochistic!
