    I-94 not taken away?

    Thanks! A related question -- both of us were on F1 before GC and making salaries as RA. After getting GC, in principle we should be paying medicare and SS, but since our status wasn't updated in time, I'm wondering how the unpaid medicare & SS can be repaid. (I don't think it's on the tax return.)

    I-94 not taken away?

    Hi all, Recently my wife and I went home for the first time after gettting GC. On the way out of US, she forgot to submit the I-94 card (we both last entered US as F1 student last year). Is this cause for concerns? Should she mail it to anywhere? Thanks -Wu

If that's not spamming, it comes pretty close. :p Shouldn't you at least be honest and tell people the "get your free camera" link...

    I-485, help.

    Processing times are based on ND not PD PD only comes into play when visa numbers are concerned. For EB1 and 2, PD is still current, so your exact PD doesn't matter right now for I485. Of course, what eb1doc said is so true...

    Approval after code 3 finger print

    cards ordered Today I got another set of emails about the cards ordered, so all is well now. My case is NIW (EB2) and the ND for I485 is 5/25/2005. I did my finger print (code 3 which included picture/signature/10 fingers, etc...) on 6/22/2005, the result of which was received on 6/29/2005...

    Approval after code 3 finger print

    Thanks for all the responses I guess I'll wait for the actual approval notice to arrive in the mail. It should have instructions as to what to do next. My case is NIW (EB2) and the ND is 5/25/2005. I did my finger print (code 3 which included picture/signature/10 fingers, etc...) on...

    Approval after code 3 finger print

    Hi, I just received the emails saying my I485 has been approved and an approval notice was mailed. But I gave code 3 finger print, and I thought the new policy is to order card directly. Anyone had similar experiences? Thanks -Wu

    140 LUD change after filling 485

    Hi, My I140 was approved more than a month ago, and I just filed I485. Apparently a few days after the VSC got my I485, they touched my I140 (LUD change with the same message). Is this normal? I know a lot of people here filed I485 before I140. Just wanted to learn the experience of other...

    OPT EAD card received but no approval notice?

    Hi, I applied for an OPT EAD card. Even though the online status shows that they mailed me the approval notice on May 7, so far I haven't received it. I did receive the EAD card. Would there be a problem down the road? I was told by my colleague that the approval notice (I-791) rather than the...

    Huge REF Questions: I am not sure what this mean....Please give inputs

    Don't be discouraged. It seems to me your RFE might have been generated from a template with each argument modified to fit your case. The adjudicator might not have read your application very carefully or your application was not organized in the most readable manner. In any case, don't...

    NIW case transfer since Jan 2005

    Hi all, After the January memo on 485 interviews, I've seen several NIW cases approved without interviews (at all 4 service centers). I'm wondering if this is the new trend now. Also what do you think is the most common trigger for an interview? -Wu

    urgent question about NIW

    shouldn't be a problem for 140, but... I heard that if you also file 485, you become pending adjustment of status. If you then apply for H1B, your 485 might be considered abandoned (not sure about this, though, I've heard mixed messages). On the other hand, if you're confident that your...

    What is MTR? Please help after EB-1EA denial

    Try search for a post on this forum about MTR and Appeal I remember there was a post on this forum detailing the difference between the two types. Try to search for it. Note, however, it's not exactly lawyers posting on this forum, so maybe it's still worth hiring a lawyer. Especially since...
