CSC August 2005 Filing I-140 Tracking

My attorney didn't ask for these documents and so I didn't submit following items:

-A copy of your driver’s license or state ID, if any.
-A copy of your most recent FEDERAL tax return, with all schedules, W-2s, and 1099s. Be sure to SIGN the return before copying.
-jointly filed tax returns;
-recent statements for jointly held bank/credit card accounts;
-lease/deed for real estate/housing in the name of both you and your spouse;

Is this going to be an issue? Let me know.

Thanks for pointing that out. Eventhough I provided a copy of DL (driver license), my attorney said he doesn't need it. He submitted the latest individual tax return (not signed, not certified though). He also submitted a copy of the last 6-month's bank statement. Eeventhough I provided the original he used the copies instead. he also send out company 'Annual Wage report' rather than company's 'tax return'. That makes me nervous...

I guess bank statements, property deeds, stocks is needed when there is a dependent filing with you and basically you need to show that you have enough backup to financially back the dependent(s). If dependents have income that make things much easier.

People, please update the Xls file (or the text file) while updating your status. That would be a great help on tracking individuals' status. Thanks.

You will be assigned Visa Number when your case is ready to get approved if PD is current of your case at that time.

EB-2 probably will retrogress in Jan next year.. Before then your case might have been approved already !!

I remember my attorney told me that my income is sufficient enough to support my spouse. Form I-134 listed only my annual salary. It had $0 for deeds, stocks and other stuffs. I got that attested by a notary and submitted that form. If these documents are required for proof of income to support dependents, I think I'm fine. Otherwise, I'll wait for my lawyer to get back to me.

Thanks.
 
nope

no. visa #s get consumed only at the very final stages of 485. you can apply for all the 485s you want. you'll get squat if there are no visa #s.

Does being allowed to apply for 485 mean that a visa number has been assigned at the time of applying for the 485?

did you get FP biometrics appointment along with your RD ?

Or are you planning to get biometrics done unsolicitedly ?

If you got the FP notice, its rather fast isnt it (going by other posts) ?

"Priority Date Must Be Current
In order to file the I-485 the priority date must be current. If the priority date is not current when the I-140 is filed, but becomes current at some later time prior to approval, the I-485 can be filed at that time."

Does being allowed to apply for 485 mean that a visa number has been assigned at the time of applying for the 485?

In the receipt, it does mention that if its a I-485 receipt, then call the NSC for Biometrics appointment which includes(FP,Photo and Signature).....
 
yes and yes. ac21 is applicable irrespective of whether visa #s are available or not. In fact, one of the main intents of ac21 is to alleviate the hardship on employees incurred by retrogression

Ray S. said:
does that mean such cases where visa numbers are not assigned cannot leave their employer even after 140 approval/6 months 485? what is DOLs view on such concurrent filing that is allowed but 485 might not have a visa number? is portability applicable under AC21 for such applicants?
