485/AC-21's impact on Parent's visit visa..

[atlantabhopali]

Hi all,

I am currently working on EAD after changing jobs under AC-21, 180+ days after filing 485. My parents will be applying for visit visa in a few weeks, with my sponsorship (I-134). As a part of the application, I have to provide employment letter, paystubs and "current status" papers, along with copy of the whole passport.

1. Would the mumbai consulate see the difference between name of the firm on H1 or approved 140 and the current employment verification letter and question my status?

2. Do they understand AC-21 rules? Should I include a cover letter stating I changed jobs under AC-21, which is the rule as per.. blah blah blah? Or just say My current status is "pending employment based AOS" and I am currently working using EAD?

3. What other docs etc can I provide for them to have a better chance at approval?

Would appreciate ur sharing similar experiences and/or related advice.

regards,

-ab

---- the can SEE nobody can stop them
2. Do they understand AC-21 rules?
---- I don’t know, better send email to Mumbai consulate and ask them if they know about AC21 then only you will know if they know or don’t know
Should I include a cover letter stating I changed jobs under AC-21, which is the rule as per.. blah blah blah? Or just say My current status is "pending employment based AOS" and I am currently working using EAD?
---- Pending adjustment of status, attach I-485 reciept
3. What other docs etc can I provide for them to have a better chance at approval?
--- they have to show ties to India and visa officer should be convinced that they will return to India. Nobody can give to guarantee that they will issue visa., all depends on Visa officers.

would appreciate ur sharing similar experiences and/or related advice.
