Hello,
First I'd like to say sorry for posting this here but the forum about form I-485 doesn't accept new posts right now.
So I've got the following situation here:
I was granted asylum about an year ago and now it's the time to submit form I-485 to register permanent residence.
The problem is that I already traveled out of the country using my travel document in january 2010 and now I am not sure how to complete some parts of I-485.
The real problem is part 3:
Place of last entry into the USA- that's-OK!
In what status did you enter-asylee-OK!
Where you inspected by a US Immigration officer-yes-OK!
NON IMMIGRANT VISA NUMBER-??????????
DATE VISA ISSUED-?????????????
CONSULATE WHERE VISA WAS ISSUED-??????
I mean, I've got 2 nonimmigrant visas issued years ago, but the last time I entered the USA (january 2010) I used only my passport and my travel document...I suppose all these questions concern my last arrival, so should I leave these sections blank?
The other question that bothers me is:
Have you ever applied for permanent residence in th US?
The answer is "yes".
So, last year when I was approved for status I intended to apply for employment authorization card and travel document immediately, so I made an appointment with an officer at the local Immigration office just to make sure that was the right time,the right forms,etc. I was told to apply I-485 instead because the price included both other documents and I was eligible to do so at this time (?!)...So I applied and my papers were returned, because the 1 year anniversary of my approval, hadn't past.The letter said I needed to wait one year until I could apply again, so what should I put as "final disposition" in this section?I was thinking of applying a copy of the letter they sent me when they returned the papers...
Thank you very very much for reading this and for helping me!!!
