I plan to file I-485 on June 1 and then travel to India on June 5. Is it enough to be in country when filing the I-485 or should I also be here until I get the filing receipt? How long does it ususally take for USCIS to give the filing receipt? Wouldn't it take longer this time becaue many I-485 applications would be filed around June 1.
I have taken appointment in June at the US consulate in Delhi to get my H-1B 3 yr Extension Visa stamped. I read some where that one may loose my non-immigrant status if they file for adjustment of status (I-485). Is that true? Could there be any issue in getting the H1b Visa stamped or entering back in US? I am not planning to file for AP.
Thanks
