    Opinions needed.....

    There is a question on the I-140, where you need to select how do you want to proceed: CP or I-485. If you decide to do I-485, your file stays in USCIS. Changing your choice to CP after that is difficult and you will need to file I-824 - Application for Action on an Approved Application or...

    Just curious, why INS cannot count the 485 waiting time toward citizenship?

    There is a great initiative to push this in the CSC forum: http://immigrationportal.com/showth...;threadid=99973 http://boards.immigration.com/showt...threadid=113020 What is needed is just a ONE WORD change in the INA, but USCIS can not do this, only the Congress can do it, i.e. we...

    Options for green card holder to bring newly wedded spouce

    dms, You are right - F1 is not a dual intent visa and it might be an issue. H1 would be the best as it would allow paralel I-485.

    Why is EB I-485 is singled out?!

    The reason is that the TSC adjudication section and the Dallas District Ofiice are very close to each other. The facility on St. Augustine Rd, which is the official TSC address is only the file storage building. The actual adjuducation is done in the facility on 7701 North Stemmons Freeway...

    Why is EB I-485 is singled out?!

    EB cases are excluded not by mistake, but because of the core reason for allowing EB immigration. While family-based immigration exists for enabling family-unity and DV lottery is used for diversifying the immigration flow, EB immigration exists for the sole purpose of helping businesses to...

    485 RFE track -- Calling to those who got RFE

    AR11 Question

    You are not required by law to notify TSC about your address change, only to fill and mail form AR-11, which you did promptly. However AR-11 goes to a different part of the Department and your address will not be updated automatically in your TSC file. It is very important to call NSC and...
