What was the RFE about?


RFE to send proof for pending I-485. They asked for receipt notice. This they could easily have got by just by typing my alien number in their system.

Hey guys,
--
New EAD has the starting date just after the previous one expires, but AP starting date is near when it was approvev that is 2 months before the previous one expires.

Good to know they are issuing EAD valid from the expiry date. I applied a month before the ead expired. Currently it has expired.

Any idea what the start date will be when they are approving. Will it be following the expried date or any random date.

Has any one have my situation and got EAD approved after the expiry of current one... just curious to find my start date on new ead.

Nothing so far :(
Man nothing so far.. Now I am really concerned about this.. The only good thing which I did is I told my employer that I am going to India from Dec 7th and will be back Jan 9th. That give me more time.. and my project is going to be extended until Feb 2008. Today only I came to know. Lets see how it goes.. Just sitting tight.. Hope our approvals will be on our way as thanks giving gift..
Thanks

I believe that would be either one day after expiry of current EAD or EAD application adjudication date whichever comes later.

EAD Renewal - Expedited processing

Hi Guys,

Keep the hope. I have sent a fax for expedited processing and also followed up through the congressman's liasion office. I saw LUD change on 11/20/06. I don't know whether my fax or the liasion office enquiry has effected this LUD change. Unfortunately there is no change in the message and no email. I am just sitting with lots of hope to get the renewal soon. I never imagined this EAD renewal would become a nightmare like GreenCard. I don't know what more to say.

I have filed (paper filing) for EAD on 09/30/06 and the check was cleared on 10/04/06. Afterwards the LUD change was on 11/20/06. EAD is expiring soon.
I shall keep the position updated.

Yeah.. I too got the emails late last night..Did not check my emails at night.. So glad this is over and was a nice thanksgiving gift..
For everyone else I sincerely wish you too all get the approvals soon.. Follow up with fax ( if not already done so ). And one more thing the CSR I talked to said if I do not the approval by the 75th day call them back..

Keep the hope.
 
I sent a mail for expediting the case.

As there is a gap in my employment, will there be any issues in i485 approval. It is substitute labor EB3. Actually my EB2 labor was stolen by employer and screwed me.. after that I quit working for him and joined new employer using EAD, it got expired and now out of pay. I would have got my gc if my employer didnt screw me. hmmm... now not sure whether the break in employment gives trouble in i485 approval... any idea ?

I got two breaks.. but not worried that much right now...

Thanks

Hi krisKish,

Nothing much happening on my case. Just waiting to pass 60 days as advised by the customer service to initiate an enquiry if I don't get the Biometrics appointment by then.

When may be the best time to initiate a fax / mail request to expedite the process?

Thanks and Good Luck.

EAD card "fingerprint not available"

Hi,

I applied EAD on 10/18/06 and recevied the card on 11/25/06. However, it says "fingerprint not available". Anyone have similar situation?

BTW, my 485 was filed on 10/01/2006 and fingerprint was taken on 10/13/06. There is no LUD after fingerprint. Does it mean even fingerprint wasn't cleared from FBI?

My case was in Texas.

Thanks!
 
1 week left on EAD..renewal pending at VSC

Hi KrisKish/Hot_Chocolat/anyOneElse,

My EAD expires on 12/05. I e-filed, with VSC, for renewal on 9/28 and gave biometrics on 10/23.

Can you please pass on the fax# to send an expedite request? Also, in the request, what would be appropriate to mention?

One other question, my H1B with prior company was never withdrawn. Can I try for a H1 transfer now? I joined the current employer 3 months ago on EAD invoking AC21.

Thanks for your help.
