Grounds for I-485 denial

If my I-140 EB-1 EA ("extraordinary ability") petition has been APPROVED by TSC, then I file I-485/EAD/AP based on that (my priority date is current), and I:

- Show up for my fingerprinting appointment(s)
- Don't travel outside USA before I receive AP
- Don't have any criminal records
- Have never been present in the USA unlawfully and have evidence of legal status
- Provided only truthful information on all forms,

on what possible grounds could my I-485 hypothetically be denied?

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much!

practically none!
 
matter of time

You will get FP appointment letter in a few weeks and get approval after a month or two. Good luck!
 
CuriousGeorge,

Thank you for your encouragement! I'll be hoping for no denial in error, as TSC has been doing so well. And I really appreciate the SOP link, very useful!
 
My situation is also similar
Currently Holding EAD and AP. But using H1B valid till 2010
GC Filed under PERM EB2 with LCA Salary $99K in 2005.
My 2005 W2 == $72K
2006 W2 == $72K
2007 W2 NONE. I was in India
2008 w2 == $33.5 K ( but I was in USA for only 7 months .Came in June. Stubs started in Aug when I got project )
There is some difference between the promised sal on LCA and what is there in H1B approval.
On H1B Approval they have $95K. Position is SIMILAR NOT the same .
The LCA GC Position is of Manager / Architect.
The current Working position is Tech. Lead / Architect
Will this be a reason for 485 denial.
140 Is approved. 2006.
Now waiting in Retrogressed EB2 line for 485 approva
Please reply
PS No other bad records. I abstained from all the wrong stuff - cigarettes , smoking, pot , crack, meth , night clubs etc etc
Thanks

I read your post and I have a similar situation, I am currently in India and planning to return to US after 1.5 years on my h1b. I stayed in US for almost7 years, first on F1 and then H1b. I have filed my 485, 2 yrs back.

My question is when u returned after this long stay, did you have any problems at the port of entry. What is normal like always or some more question for being out of country for so long
