I got FP scheduled for 5/15......

I updated the sheet.....Thanks.

Thanks Skotha

I got all my receipts, with ND. 04/01/03. INS made some mistake and send a wrong notice to us, stating FP fee for my wife has not been paid. Infact we sent the check, they are poor in arithmatics. My lawyer sent an explanation reply to INS on 04/16/03, about the check amount we sent .
Online mesage says we mailed a receipt. . For my wife - we determined a shortage FP fee, we mailed a notice to give an opportunity to pay the fee. Just I am curious to know from others Once I hear from INS, I will update

Thanks
 
Hi Anindya

You can apply without knowing to your employer, withthe cooperation of your lawyer.


Thanks
 
All,

Finally got receipt for all the application (485/131/765) from attorney. Lawyer told me that they mailed all the applications together and I believe them as they are one of the very reputed immigration lawyers in tri-state area. Surprisingly there is 25 day difference in ND for 140 & 485.

Any of you had same situation?

Updates

EAD and AD approved for both my husband and me from online status checking. Both my husband and I have done FP.

I-485 online status says following for me, and it is as the same as they sent out the receipt and it has no change after I have done FT. I am the main applicant.
"Your I485 Application to Register Permanent Residence or to Adjust Status was received on March 28, 2003. We mailed you a receipt with information about processing. It is taking between 365 and 540 days for us to process this kind of case. We will mail you a decision as soon as processing is complete."

I-485 online status says following for husband.
"On May 6, 2003, the results of your fingerprint review for your I485 Application to Register Permanent Residence or to Adjust Status were received, and processing has resumed on your case. We will mail you a notice if further action is needed, or when a decision is made."

Does anyone know why they are different? What is the difference?

Does anyone know how risky if I go back to my home country visit with the AP without waiting for the approval of the I-140?

Please respond. Thanks in advance for the response.
 
In the FP notice, does BCIS tell you the date you have to go, or can one go anytime after the notice is received?

My wife is going abroad for few months (on H4). We've filed 140/485 on 5/5/03. WOndering if it will be a problem when we get an FP notice and she is not in the country.

Also, does FP have to be complete in order for EAD to be approved? Thanks!
 
Hi arbee

Couple of my friends received EAD/AP, But they haven't got FP notice till date.
Its safe to travel after FP done, I personally feel it may delay the process for your wife, if she is not in the country.

Thanks

AOS vs. Current Visa Status

Hi All,

My wife and I filed 140/485 concurrently and both 140 and 485 are still pending for approval.

My wife currently holds F-1 visa as full-time registered grad student. Recently, she received a notice from school for I-20 renewal process due to the policy change of BCIS, but was told that she might not be able to get her I-20 renewed because of her 485 application.

I wonder if anyone on this board would be kind to provide some idea or information resources on how BCIS deals with people with request to renew non-immigration document while in the transition period for immigration document approval.

Would such people be considered as immigrants ('cuz they may use EAD/AP to work and travel) or non-immigrants ('cuz they still have F-1/H1-B status on file and 140/485 is still pending)?

Thank you.
