Thanks for your response, Ginnu.
That is what I figured. As long as I get to keep the I-485 petition alive, I have no problems. Getting to keep the old priority date is just a bonus.
When I did talk to an attorney (not Mr. Khanna's office), the attorney mentioned that if the RFE on the old...
I had previously filed for I-140 & I-485 (concurrently) in Dec' 03 through company A. I have been getting EADs/APs/Finger print notification regularly.
In joined company B in Dec' 06 and filed for a new I-140 through them (LC - Sept 07). I got the I-140 approval through company B on July 30th...
No change. if USCIS touches my case, they will most probably issue an RFE and that will definitely result in a denial as the company is now closed. As long as the case is pending, my I-485 will be active and I can renew my EAD/AP as long as I want.
I do have a parallel process going. But...
Congrats
Glad to see one of the older(oldest?) I-140 approval.
I'm kinda sick of seeing your face in the I-140 forum ;) .
Hopefully I get mine approved without an RFE. If they issue an RFE, my I-140 will most definitely get denied.
Good luck with the I-485
I guess, I started the party way too early.
Today, I was told by my company that they might delay the filing of the I-140 because in the recent past they had applied for 3 I-140s' through premium process and had received a query on all of them. But they were subsequently approved.
I guess...
st4rguitar,
I'll drink to that. I'm opening a bottle of Johnny Walker - Gold as I write this.. :D
I have another bottle of Johnny Walker - Blue label for the I-140 approval. At this stage I'm not even thinking about the I-485 approval.
Cheers! Here's to small triumphs ;)
My company filed for my labor (PERM) about 3 weeks ago. I was informed today that the approval had arrived by mail yesterday.
I was under the impression that my company would first receive a letter asking them to verify the details. I also believe that this is called the 45 day letter. I have...
Default judgement?
Default judgement is issued in the plaintiff's favour(your employer in this case) if you had been issued summons and you did not appear in court for the hearing. A lot of companies fail to (deliberately) inform the person they are trying to sue in order to get a deault...
Just applied..
After waiting for close to 3 years on I-140 approval without any success, I have begun the process of applying for a new labor and starting all over.
My office admin just sent me a note saying that the application has been filed and she gave me a receipt number (from the email...
Still here.. waiting.
I had recently initiated the process for an alternate labor. Hopefully, by the end of next month, my labor application would be filed (PERM).
My employer confirmed that my I-140 would be denied if there is a query on ability to pay. This has happened to a number of...
Security Check covers a wide range of verifications (IBIS, FBI etc.). If your case goes under security check during the adjucation of I-140, it generally means that USCIS is trying to verify the credentials of your sponsoring company.
USCIS policy seems to be "When in doubt, put the file...
Technically, you can switch companies if your I-1485 application is pending for more that 180 days and your I-140 hasn't been approved.
If you switch companies and notify USCIS that you are invoking AC-21 rule, USCIS then needs to determine if the I-140 would have been approved or not if it...
Hi! ginnu
Thanks for the info.
So as long as I have a backup option (LC and/or I-140) from another company, I should be fine..I guess.
So how sure are you of the fact that I can interfile the new I-140 with a pending I-485? I was under the impression that the I-485 would be tied to the...
My I-140 has been pending since Dec'03. I'm now planning to use AC21 to join the company where I have been working as a contractor for the past 20 months. So far I have received 3 APs and 3 EADs and have compeleted my 2nd FP (same with the spouse). I have just applied for my 8th year extn.
My...
