I-140 denied
Hello UNITEDNATIONS
I have been reading lot of good things about you.
I have a situation here where i need to legal advice.
My 6th year H1b peried expired on Nov 13 2006. Since i had approved
labour I applied for my and my wife's 7th year H1 and H4 extension on Nov
12, 2006.
I applied my I-140 prior to my I-485.
In june 2007 I-485 became current, so i applied my I-485 while my 7th
year H1B extension was in pending status.
In October 2007 we (Me and my wife) got our EAD. Nov 2007 i got my H1B
approved but my I-94 was not approved, because of that my wife's h4
extension got denied.
My lawyer suggested us to change to AOS and not to worry about H1B and
H4 anymore.
Jan 2008 I got my Advance Parole approved, but my wife's AP got denied
saying her H4 expired on Nov 2006 and we applied her I-485 in June
2007, so from Nov 2006 to June 2007 USCIS is considering her as
out-of-status. My lawyer re-opened the case and also applied for a new AP for my
wife.
Feb 2008 i got my I-140 denied, still waiting on the reason.
In this case what are my options.
1. If i do MTR on my I-140 case can i work legally using my EAD, how
long can i work?
Please advice.
Thanks in advance
