    Rfe

    don't worry, be happy In about a month, all ur INS worries will be a distant memory. But first, wait till u get the actual RFE in ur hand. Keep all your recent tax returns in order, all your recent W2s ready and copies of all recent pay stubs ready (recent = last 2 years). Get an attorney to...

    unemployed at abjudication of status

    good luck buddy! Until last night I was in a similar boat: I had an RFE for employment and job status was a bit, um, unstable (whose IT job isn't these days?). Luckily RFE evidence asked for EVL which I obtained while still employed and case was approved. HOWEVER: don't take it too lightly...

    A p P r O v E d !! (after RFE EVL)

    lovejl's query lovejl: if u have the same RFE status date as mine, I strongly suggest u take the time to call 800 number. Someone told me, I didn't believe it makes any diff but did it anyway, and within 6 hours case was approved. Doesn't matter what they reply, just go through with the...

    How long for post-RFE response?

    called 800 number, futile As usual 800 number folks told me the obvious. She says, wait for a few months. They do have your info for the RFE on March 8th, but there is no time frame after that. Ta-ta!! Why don't they fire all of them and replace with automated response based on web page...

    how many pay stubs and tax return with W2 to provide

    I was in the same boat. I was asked to provide "recent" paystubs, and tax returns for 2004 (!!), 2003 and W-2s. I provided: * 2004 W-2 (haven't filed yet) * 2003 W-2 & Tax returns * All of 2004 paystubs * Employment letter drafted to match the I-140. Fingers crossed, breath held. No...

    Online status changed to RFE sent

    Keep ur past few months paystubs, past two years' tax returns, past two years' W2s ready. Ask ur lawyer to draft an employment letter and keep it ready at your HR to be signed. The letter should go above and beyond your plain vanilla "so-and-so is working here and makes so much". It should state...

    REF issued on 485

    Typically the lawyer should draft the letter and the hr should type it up and sign it. That's the way my company does it. This is because the employment letter for your RFE is not your plain vanilla "so-and-so works for us and makes so much and is in good standing". Yes u need that also, but...

    REF issued on 485

    It takes more than a week, and it typically goes to your lawyer. My RFE was to provide employment letter, W2s of recent years, tax returns of recent years, and recent paystubs. Btw, they even asked for 2003 tax returns, which I haven't even filed yet. But my lawyer said just the W2 should...

    EAD Renewal Good For Only ONE Year

    they don't check jack! sorry! I got my EAD renewed last month and the idiots gave it valid from Jan itself. My current EAD is valid till April 9, so I effectively lost 3 months of "coverage". The same happened to at least 3 of my colleagues. so it is still not yet time to harbor warm-n-fuzzy...
