Different Company Name Change Question

I am Filing my I-140, I-485, I-693, & I-765 next week.

I have one problem I need resolved prior to filing.

Here is my Scenerio....

Company "A" is the parent company (20,000 plus employees).
This company owns two companies (B & C) one of which I have worked for, for over 7 years now (Company B)!
These 2 companies are the same company in regards to they are the same payroll, location, industry etc) My office has employees who work for B or C - depending on the contracts and the man power required!

I filed my LC under company "B".
Since this time company "A" has decided to combine B & C under the name of C.

On my ETA-750 my company name was caught and the Certifing Officer changed the Employeer name to "B" / "C" and stamped it.

Company B has been totally dissolved now into company C!

.........................................................................................................
When I file next week should I leave off company B and just imput everything as Company C in regards to employer?

I see no since in showing Company B....if they have NO assets and the Tax ID is no longer used!

just want to make sure I have everything in order!
 
Company Name change

Hi

My company(Say : aaaaa) applied for I-140/I-485/EAD/AP (concurrent) on 1/16/03 and the ND and RD are the same.

On 4/4/03 my company had a name change (to xxxxxx_aaaaa) , with in 21/2 months of filing. Original name is still part of the new name

None of them are approved noe EAD/AP/I-140.

I dont know what to do, and my company lawyer also dont know what to do!!!

Do i have to apply for I-140 amendment?.(As my original I-140 is still pending) if so, what is the procedure?.

Plese any help will be appreciated

Thanks in advance
 
My situation was sort of similar

My company changed its name after I applied for 140 (not concurrent) At that time my lawyer stated that we should not file an amendment to confuse INS and push the application to another pile. They suggested that after 140 approval and when filing 485 the amendment can be filed.

I am happy to report that in the past two weeks my amended 140 /EAD/AP have been approved.

Amended 140/485/EAD/AP - RD 1/22/03

140 AD - 4/24/03
EAD AD - 5/1/03
AP AD - 5/2/03

Initially I thought it was a bad decision as I had basically lost all the time my original 140 took to get approved. In hindsight I wonder if an approved 140 makes an amended 140 approval a done deal.

Some lawyers (like Sheela Murthy) feel that if the address, Tax ID of the company are the same there is no need for amended 140. I am not sure how this works.


Hope my experience helps you in your decision.
 
f$%*!!

Update on Concurrent Filing


By Lorenzo Lleras Thursday, May 8, 2003

As most of you know, it is now possible to file the I-140 immigrant petition along with the I-485 adjustment of status petition. We are frequently asked whether work authorization and advanced parole petitions are adjudicated immediately or whether they are adjudicated after the I-140 is approved. INS/BCIS had initially stated that work authorization cards and advanced parole permits would be issued before the final adjudication of the I-140 petition. However, as a precaution, adjudicating officers were checking the I-140s to verify that they had a basis in law.

During the past week, our office has had conversations with information officers at both Vermont and Texas. According to the information officers at both Service Centers, officers are now waiting until after the I-140 is approved before adjudicating the merits of the work authorization and advanced parole petitions. The reason for this change appears to be that members of the public were routinely filing I-140 petitions with little merit in order to get the benefits associated with the adjustment of status. At this time we do not know the policy being followed by Nebraska and California, but we can only guess that they will probably follow suit.
