hi deeone

i got my I485 ND date is on 09/18 and i am still waiting for my EAD card and I140 aproval. Can i know what is your I485 and EAD ND date. and I 140 status.
 
Yudhister ... my dates

I have mentioned all the dates below. Even though I mailed 765/131/485 at the same time, the ND for them are different. I am waiting to hear about I-140.

ND - 5/23
Waiting for status

I765/131:
MD - 8/30

Got card & AP - 10/15

RD - 9/18

FP Notice received - 10/3 (Appointment 10/11)

H1/EAD question

All:

Even though I have gotten my EAD card, my lawyer is asking me too apply for h1-b 7th year extension. Is this required? Any thoughts?


( The argument is that if my 140/485 is denied for some reason, then I will be out of status with just an EAD. But will I not have to leave the country anyway when my 140/485 is denied?)

Thanks in advance for your opinions.
:confused:

How can I find out what the RD and ND are for my application ?

to deeone

Thanks for your reply and coming to your question
Even in my case my attorney whats me to file for H1 extension. In his words: it is not advised to use EAD until you get I485 approval or atleast i140 approval.
i would say it is better to be on safe hand ... and rest is up to you and luck .... I wish you good luck.
 
Deeone,

If its a 7 th year extension based on the same GC filing -- if 140/485 is denied -- 7 th year extension also becomes invalid along with EAD. Thats the information I read some site. If its not a 7 th year extension may be thats useful. But on the surface H1 seems more safer than EAD in some cases.

Thanks.

Hello All,

I had posted my info. I140-I485 concurrent filing forum.

I140-I485 concurrent filing path is:-
ImmigrationPortal Forums > ImmigrationPortal.com > US Immigration > Immigrant Visas (Green Cards) > I-140 Issues > Vermont Service Center I-140 > I140-I485 concurrent filing.

Currentlt there are 2 forums with same goal. "Only for Concurrent fillers "and "I140-I485 concurrent filing " forums

Only for Concurrent fillers path:-
ImmigrationPortal Forums > ImmigrationPortal.com > US Immigration > Immigrant Visas (Green Cards) > I-140 Issues > Vermont Service Center I-140 > Only for Concurrent fillers

Why can we post in I140-I485 concurrent filing forum since there more postings there.This will help us the shore our status and exp. more usefully if this is shared in one place.

Cheekoo, my friend got a FP notice.

He filed on 10/05. So I expect we should receive something in hand within a week or at the most 2 weeks.

Good luck budy...;)
 
Received ND for I-485 on Nov 2.

I-140=6/20 and waiting.

Questions for the friends here? I only received one ND date for my I-485. Should i ask my lawyer about the ND dates of EAD and Advanced Parole? Or all dates the same as I sent in a packet?

Thanks in advance.
 
Also would the tracking numbers for EAD and Advanced Parole be different from that of I-485?

How do I track EAD and Advanced Parole?
 
FP notice

Dose anyone know if I will get receipt number for I-765 or not?
 
7th year extension

Friends,
My 6 year H1B period is getting expired in Feb, 2003 and I am planning to apply for I140/485/EAD before the end of this month. I will have 2 1/2 months left between my application date and my H1B expire date.
Is it required for me to apply for 7th year extension?
Will I go out of status if my EAD did not get approved by that time?
Appreciate your thoughts...

Re: 7th year extension

Nov01RIR:

I am in the same situation as you are. You can see my previous postings. I got my EAD last month and will not applying for 7th year H1b extension. My H1 ends in another 10 days. :(

If you do not get your EAD before your H1 expires, then you are out of status. It is taking INS about a month to approve EAD & AP. So, if you apply soon, you might get it before Feb.

Also, you can wait until the last couple of weeks before your H1 expires to apply for extension. It is required that INS just RECEIVE your application for you to maintain status for another 240 days.

Good Luck, and please post if you find out otherwise so that I can apply for my 7th year extension soon.
