I140 and I485 concurrent file and I140 approved, I485 Pending Thread

Saan,

Can you include your EB category also?

It is a good idea to include your dates in your signature including eb category. If EB3 then if possible with the country name. If not country name then atleast mention "Affected by Retrogression" or "Not affected by retrogression". At this time only India, Philiphines and china are affected by retrogression. Anyone please correct me if my country list is not correct. This helps lot of people to understand other's scenario.

Thanks

EAD and AP will help. So it may be good idea to have EAD and AP , you may be able to accept new job in same/similar position on EAD and be safe.
 
Thank you mkshirsa - had a followup question

However, once we have completed 6 months in i485, doesnt the case belong to the immigrant? even if I do not get another job, once fired, would I not be able to stay here until the i485 is approved?

can you guys also add the location you guys are staying at?

I think the location where you stay makes a difference.
Members of the 140 forum in Charlotte, have already got their FP scheduled. No one from Atlanta seems to have got their FPs scheduled when the 485 ND > july 2004.
Please include the location where you guys are staying

That all depends on your old employer, if they try to withdraw your I-140 then you could be in problems. To avoid this, try to get a new job in same/similar position and inform USCIS with AC21 portability. That way once USCIS gets your letter before old employer tries to withdraw then I think you are safe.
Also try to get some legal advise if you know any attorney.
 
It seems that we have a lot of interest in keeping this thread alive. I will put an excel sheet so that its easier to track the progress.
 
Updated my info in the Excel SpreadSheet

I have updated the excel sheet with my info..I have also added a new column for I140 approval date...which might be useful..."I140ApprDate". Hope that is ok...

guys - please add your locations

Or the I140 thread started by vangaru has columns for FP and other dates, we can add the details in a common sheet .
Also i would prefer location, because that makes a difference

Guys,

I added the people from the beginning of this thread to the Excel file.
Please, somebody add the rest.
 
Added Priority Date, Country Column

To help track the process more meaningfully, I have added two more columns ie Prority Date and Country. Please take a moment and update your info. Thanks
