Re: 140 RFE
USCIS gives 3 months time to reply to the RFE. Did you get your EAD/AP? If so When?

My lawyer said that he has got a query for my I-140(ND: 5/21/03) recently.
He didnt say how much time we have to reply to it

Re: Re: 140 RFE
I havent got EAD/AP yet. Is there any pattern to be followed for replying to RFES? Should we wait till say 2 months is over to file the response or can my lawyer do it immediately?
My RFE is due to Educational Evaluation.

Re: Re: Re: 140 RFE
There is no pattern or rules as such.. I would say get the Education Evaluation ASAP and send it to USCIS... earlier the better.
With RFE on I140; hopefully your EAD and AP will also be approved along with I140... Good Luck!!!

If i were you i would respnd to RFE ASAP. I don't see any benefit by dealying and i don' t think there are any patterns in replying to RFE. I think your are being too cautious. Don't worry. do it ASAP

After the 6 years on H1, is it better to get H1 extended for an year or get EAD every year until 485 gets approved? What are the pros and cons of H1 extension vs EAD? What happens if one looses job after 6 years, is it better to be on H1 or EAD? Can someone clear my confusion?

It is your call Read below.
If you are on EAD and your I485 gets denied for some reason ( which is very unlikely) you can't get back to H1. Once you use EAD your H1 is invalid. Inorder to get H1 after you have EAD you have to apply for new H1. If have passed 6 years then you have to leave the country for one year and come back.What are the pros and cons of H1 extension vs EAD?
You can have EAD but not use it and still can stay on H1.
If you loose a job then it depends on your new employer whether he willing to to do H1 trasfer and he wants EAD. Obvisoly most employers prefer EAD because they don't have to worry about H1.What happens if one looses job after 6 years, is it better to be on H1 or EAD? Can someone clear my confusion?

Hi jay_gm
Hi jay_gm
Actually I had an RFE on my AP they required new photos , I had replied to them in the 1st week of december. After that the oline status was changed to :
"We have received your response to the information that we asked for. Because preliminary processing has already been carried out , it should take less than the specified time to process you application."
And that is what it still says on my online status. But my lawyer called me earlier today and told me that he has my approved AP documents in his hands. So I guess my AP was approved atleast two weeks back.

you are better off waiting until your I140 is approved if not your employer can revoke the I140 and your I485 is will get invalid/ Denied .
If he/she is willing to support your I140(like replying to RFE etc ) even after you leave him then your OK but to be on safer side i would wait until I140 is approved.
sign the petion at www.immigration.com and click Request for your support on I485 litigation and fill out the form. You will definitely gain and you have nothing to lose.

I have applied I-140 and 485 concurrently on 9/2003. I-140 not cleared so far. Is that possible to change the employer after 6months of applying 485, without I-140 approval?
