AC-140 and 485 question

davh

Registered Users (C)
1) Is my AOS (485) considered abandoned if I file for I-824?
2) Any tips for doing AC-140 (Chennai Consulate) would also be very much appreciated.

Thanks
 
WaitinginQ this is a very good faq, thank you
any approved cases from Chennai Consulate using AC-140.
 
Confused

I really don't know if this FAQ is still good or not. On one hand I would love to beleive this, but reading at R.S. Khanna's note under the heading of this thread scares me. I have send an e-mail to my lawyer with this question and am waiting for a response. Meanwhile if you guys hear something from your lawyers, please share.

Thanks

Hi WaitinginQ,

After going through archives and last postings, I think AC-140 is the way to go as long as you can go to Mumbai or Delhi.

Chennai, is a hardnut and does not accept AC-140 due its work load.

It is certain that Mumbai accepts your CP application for interview as long as you have a Visa with them or you last lived in their Consulate Area before leaving for US. Eg. prasadk

I'm not sure about this with New Delhi, but I hope thats true. I've not found a case yet, in this forum, may need to search again.

I've my Visa stamped from New Delhi and last lived in New Delhi before leaving for US. So I might go in that route.

Even after filing I-824, one can still continue his/her AOS, because INS is not going to stop AOS without sending a notice to the person once his/her I-824 is approved. One can decide whether he/she wants to continue his/her AOS or go for CP at that time.

CP is safer than AOS as long as one has all his/her papers in tact and follows instructions and suggestions posted in this forum.


This is what I understood. CPDelhi, Raju594, kd1403 and others any comments.

thanks,

These are my opinions not a legal advice.

Thanks RK,

I am also from Delhi.
Do you know how long one has to be in India for the processing?
Typically how long does it take to get medicals and police clearance done in Delhi?

If anyone has recenent experience/knoweldge about an AC-140 case in Delhi, please share it.

Thanks
