Deep1,

Do you still have a valid H1B ?

The reason why I am asking is my H1B expires (six years) at the end of this month and wondering whether to extend my H1 or use EAD.

Please let me know.

Are there any June filers that are using EAD without a valid H1B ?
Is it safe ?

Please shed some light.

Thanks

Cheru
 
Deep1 ?

Hi Deep1,

I saw that u already applied for 3rd EAD expiring on 30 July, isn't it a bit too early ?

Thanks,

Cheru,

I don't think it is a problem to use EAD. I am using EAD, since was laid off and was working on H1, couldn't find a job on H1, so used EAD...
 
EAD

As per INS website, we can apply EAD 6 months before ead expires and EAD renewal is taking almost 4 to 4.5 months. So I thought it might be safe to apply early.
 
Approval !!!

By God's Grace my wife's and my GC got approved on March 3rd. I could not believe it until I got the notice in hand. I just got it in the mail yesterday.

My details are,

Labor Applied: Oct 2001
Labor Approved: Feb 2002
I-140 Filed: Feb 2002
I-140 Approved: April 2002
I-485 Filed: June 2002
I-485 Approved: March 2004

Had completed my 2nd FP in Jan 2004. Applied for renewal of EAD and AP for 3rd time in Feb 2004.

I guess no one understands how the approval process happens here.

All the very best.
 
APPROVED...

Finally My and my Wives cases has been approved...It was approved on Feb 26th 2004...
 
Passport Stamped....

I went to Phoenix Office for Stamping - No problems at all...

All they asked for was The approval Notice, Passport, I-94 and 2 ADIT style photos.

They did not ask me for my EAD or AP...

Also.My wife is still in India and would only return in middle of April - and hence I wanted to know If it there a TIME LIMIT between approval and getting your passport stamped. The officer said that there was no such tme limit and it was perfectly OK, if she came inMid April...Which is almost 2 months after approval date....

Hi all,
I see a june case getting approved.

I havent received any FP2 notice, kind of frustating to see no activity on your case for a long time.

Hi Guys,

I completed my FP2 this weekend, But inspite of sending the AR-11 almost a year back and again updating my address by calling to the national centre 3-4 weeks back(when I rcvd. my 2nd FP notice on my old address) my address was not updated in the ASC computer.

This is very frustrating that you keep on notifing the CIS but they don't update the address in their system. I am very concerned that for CIS mistake we should not pay the price of RFE/Delay in approval.

Any of you guys had similar problem??

Please share any of such experience and how it was resolved.

I think that they have huge backlog of AR-11. They may not be processing them at all.

What really works - is calling 1-800 number (as you did, but only 3 weeks ago).

Then in about 6 weeks (in my case) you will receive a notice from VSC. This notice will come to your new address.
It will say that we received phone request concerning your pending I-485. And they will update your address.

Alternatively, write a letter to VSC and include copies of AR-11, plus cover letter asking to update your mailing address.
 
I had sent the AR-11 to Vermont Centre as well when I had send my address change to the National centre a year back. I have all the postal receipt with me of both the centers.

Do you think again sending it to the Vermont centre will work??

Not sure how they function...
