enjoy your vacation firstly since the 485 petition is in expectation of future employment, it doesnt really matter whether or not you are working right now.That issue was more for people travelling on H-1s and was more likely to affect them. If you have your 485 receipt and your AP then you...

yes absolutely. is your 140 approved - then you're pretty solid going forward if so, otherwise you may be in the grey zone for a while...try to convince your company not to cancel or withdraw your 140 petition.

references Wouldnt worry about it at this stage - references are usually when they've already decided to give you the job and have to complete the formalities/process and verify they're not making a mistake, as opposed to using the reference as a basis on whether or not to accept you. Some...

you are all set As per general knowledge, and what the USCIS officer told me - this is your green card, only difference is validity is only for 1 year. All rights/privileges same as plastic card. So you're all set - enjoy your vacation.

congrats congrats - join the club of those least expecting to get approved. Now to the back of the line of those waiting for plastic cards - lol just kidding - good luck and congrats again.

I-9 I believe there is a period during which you have to establish your I-9 eligibility to work after starting work. Not sure if thats 3 or 5 business days or what the exact number is. So option may be to push start date out as far as you can and then hope it arrives by then....

thanks & stamping experience Since there are so many who posted, will like to thank each and every one of you who replied back to my post. Over the last 3 1/2 years every time I've needed information this has been my first source and only then the lawyers sites. I'd love to offer up any...

some details and got stamping today cheekoo and others, Here are some more details from before (guess my nick is a misnomer since my RD and ND are in nov and dec 02 respectively, altho i gave my papers to my lawyer in oct so hence the nick heh :) ) My case was a EB3. Labor filed sep 2001...

spouse application Anyone here filed their 485 first and then got married and then filed for their wife?? How much time difference between when the primary gets approved and when the spouse gets approved. thanks.

Wow, I am quite amazed at receiving a email from my lawyer(I had forgotten my 485 EAC number for lack of updates and was only checking EAd/AP renewal status of late) that my case was approved. Checked online status and sure enough. Picked up original approval notice today and also got courtesy...

I know there is a seperate thread for this, but wasnt clear on the discussion there. What should be entered here - my lawyer says it should be D as in the option D from part 2 below (I am applying for advance parole to allow me to .....). Posts I have seen online say it should either be AP or...

hi right, cause technically he's not a student anymore once his paperwork has been filed and its also "adjustment to permanent residence pending", which would need an EAD to work. Good luck

hi kavitha Hi Kavitha, Yes My wife is/was able to continue working P/T in a fellowship capacity (which the pending AOS or 485 privileges you to) as well as travel outside the country (AP). For the P/T working she doesnt need an EAD since its fellowship based. Yes te ISO is the intl students...

similar case hi phillydec01 my wife was on a full time F1 and working P/t on campus. applied under my 485 (employment based). Her status is also application to adjust residence pending..as soon as you file the papers or receive the receipt you can continue studying. You may need to visit local...

biggest threat is employers leverage over u The biggest threat in your case is that for the entire duration of the 140 approval ( say a year) and then subsequent 485 approval and the duration (you said 6-8 mos..) you have absolutely 0 leverage in your employment situation. AC21 is applicable in...

karaya not universally true Have used AP once on recent trip(aug) back from india with wife and brother did the same with his wife. His experience was fairly straightforward. Mine was extremely pleasurable. Sorry that yours was so bad, but the officer walked me over personally to the other desk...
