Apply I-485(New Employer) after old I-485 was denied(with different employer)

Hi ,

My name is Lan and I need some help in filing my I-485.

Case Details:

Background:
In year 2003 I have applied I-485, I-131 and I-765 through a NJ based company A, which were denied by USCIS mentioned as no evidence was provided by the employer A.

I am never be the employer NJ based Company "A" and I was agreed to join them once I have receive the EAD. After USCIS denial I was not interested to go with NJ based company "A".


Current scenario:
I am working for a company "B" since Dec'2002 and I have receive my priority dates to file my I-131, I-765 and I-485.

Problem:
While filling the forms some of the questions regarding previous filing and A* numbers and status of previous filing.


Solution needed:
What I am suppose to write in the status column? Is there any adverse effect on my current GC filing by my earlier application denial.

Please help me in this regard. I can send you the copies of earlier denial receipts.

Thanks,
Lan

As far as I know, no one can file any employment based I-485 at this time. So you don't have to worry about it for now.

Hi Tuktukan,

I know that. But I need the help so that I can do some ground workbefore filing my I-485.

What I am suppose to write in the status column?

The truth. If it was denied, then say so and send a copy of the denial notice.

Is there any adverse effect on my current GC filing by my earlier application denial.

There shouldn't be. Anyways, any possible adverse effect pales in comparison to what USCIS will do if you don't mention the previous denial.
