ks_cc, thanks for the clarification. I've read the article somewhere on usatoday.com and they didn't mention that. At least a bit of fresh air.
Anyway, proposal is illogical (I'm not sure how family based stuff works and don't bother to look for it as I'm sure it doesn't work as described
:
- wait in retrogression for years
- finally be able to apply for I-485
- your I-485 is invalidated
- I-485 fee is increased
Or another algorithm:
- finally be able to apply for I-485
- wait in namecheck for years
- apply for EAD multiple times (how much of those new 340$ will go to FBI?)
- your I-485 is invalidated
Or (going to the multithreaded world):
- person1 applies for I-485
- person1's namecheck is submitted
- person2 applies for I-485
- person2's namecheck is submitted
- person2's namecheck is cleared
- person2's GC is approved
- person1's I-485 is invalidated
Just genius...
