As long as 2003/2004/2005 folks who have already-filed stay in low numbers it might indicate good PD movement in those years (since numbers wont be used up so soon and USCIS/DOS might have to move dates forward to start pushing out approvals. New people will then file and the usage will climb and dates slow down again).
If, on the other hand USCIS is sitting on tons of 2003/2004 PD I-485s, then date movement is going to be slow
gc_chahiye - Is it possible to somehow keep the results of the first poll in the main page? It is the only data we have which comes anywhere near the real data, and it would provide good reference.

Hi,
I have posted the same issue in another thread but i did not get any response So I'm changing the title and reposting.
I have been working for my current employer from last 4 years.I have good relations with my employer.I have 140 approved and my 485 is pending for more than 180 days.Now I want to join any new employer using my EAD.But I don't want to invoke AC 21.If my dates are current again and if i get any RFE I will submit the offer letter from my old employer.
My case is I'm using EAD after 140 is approved and 485 is pending more than 180 days and joining a new employer.As GC is future employment I can always say that I will join my old employer when ever i get a GC.This way I can avoid AC 21. Also If my employer doesn't give me the offer letter I can still manage to get it from any Consulting firm with same job title and same salary.
Can any one suggest me on this?
Thanks

I dont have any changes to status when I check my 485 case status online but today in the mail i received I797c notice welcoming me as a premenant residence. I am a bit hesitant to celebrate, but am I seeing green?:o

So you are saying the mail welcoming you as a permanent resident may not be confirmation of GC?
Come on. Dont be dumb.

I think getting salary regulary but salary slip after three or more months is common scenario in industry (deleberate attempt by employers, so that H1B transfer can't be filed). I have faced this music, my kid facing it and I am sure many people facing this.
I was lucky to go about it, USCIS did not ask at the time of transfer. Need to get idea, how others have handled it. Does bank statement work in this case?

Set up your own company LLC. and ask them to sign corp-corp or 1099 and you be the sole owner of this company.
This way even if you dont get full time offer you can defend self employment.
W2 Contract can be a problem because of USCIS's perception of permanent job.

I am not sure if there is a law that requires us to stay with the GC employer after getting GC. However, many lawyers have suggested a general rule of thumb of at least 6 months after getting GC approval.
However, the rule that can be invoked to prove you have stayed with the GC sponsoring company could be the 245(i) which requires a 180 days after filing 485 application, which I believe many of us must have already abided by.....
I heard it is 6 months from many sources(no-attorney ). The rule is you should have had genuine intention of working for sponsoring employer after GC. Eg , if you switch in a week after GC, it is obvious you did not have such intention....
6 months is long enough for me if I were to switch. But of course you need to have something better than current thing to switch!!
Also have a genuine unforseen reason due to which you need to leave your sponsoring GC employer.
Note : I am not a attorney...

We got back to USA on 1/7.
POE: Dallas (DFW)
We gave IO only passport and AP, got new I-94 in only 5 mins.
Questions asked by IO:
1. How long were away from USA?
2.How was weather in India ? ;)
Overall the experience with using AP was good.

Hi
You may already be knowing this. But a note of caution, after hearing few horror stories on H4 going out of status involuntarily.
Extension of renewal on H1 does not mean H4 is automatically renewed. Your new H1b is valid until 2009. Unless you have filed I-539 along with your H1b renewal application, your wife is not going to get new I-94. So if her I-94 is expiring december 2007, she will be out of status after that date, not withstanding your H1B validiity.
It doesnt matter if her visa stamp has your latest employer listed. The single most important thing that will determine her legal status is the validity of I-94 stamp

Of all your posts - you go that straight! :)
Thank you for your good wishes. However, I encourage you to look around the forum a bit, and see for yourself where you stand in line. I reckon there are tens of thousands of people from India waiting in line in your category - and they give out a generous three thousand every year in your category (including dependents)
At this rate - there is no chance in hell you will get lucky this year, or next year, or for several years after that.
I will see you next year - till then sweet dreams :)
I understand that you are new to this waiting game, I too had unrealistic expectations when I started out a couple of years ago. But the ground reality is that there just aren't enough green cards given out in the EB category. The EAD has some advantages, but for how long would you like to live in a state of limbo? My sincere unsolicited advice to you is to start the process in the last couple of years of your H-1B. Till then, expand your experiences, change jobs, and climb up the corporate ladder. Do not get stuck. You may not be aware, but if your I-140 is approved, you can get your H-1B extended in 3 year increments if your PD is not current. Don't be in a hurry to get the GC, because the govt. is clearly not in a hurry to give you one out to you.
When someone uses phrases like "being optimistic is better than nothing", it really gets me because doing nothing is going to get you just that - nothing.
The way u r replying seems to be u r one of those in that frustated waiting list. I only can wish u the best.

Hello everybody,
How will this work for my wife (who is on H4 now)?
If I only travel back to US, can I file for my wife too. Or I file it for myself, and file for my wife after Aug17th when she is back.
Or MUST my wife also be present in US to file the I140/485?
Pls advice.
thanks,
-Prasad
Both of you have to be in US to file 485. You may co-ordinate with your attorney while in India to prepare the paper work. Fly to be here atleast on 16th August, Sign the applications and ship it overnight to USCIS so that it reaches them on 17th August.

I think, you should check with an Immigration Attorney before you risk your wife�s multiple entry Visitor Visa.
My take:
AFAIK, staying beyond the I-94 expiration date will abandon her Visitor Visa, and she could be denied entry next time.
In your wife�s case, you have applied for a change-of-status, however a decision has not yet been made, so she should leave the country before the I-94 expiration date and come back later after the F1 is approved. But, leaving the country while the change-of-status application is pending might cancel the change-of-status application, and not the underlying F1 application. So, your wife may have to get a F1 visa stamping abroad to come back later.
The above said information is purely based on my knowledge and may vary from an Attorney�s view.
Good Luck!
Once again, per INA a person is allowed to remain legally in the U.S. while COS is pending. Leaving U.S. while COS is pending is VERY bad idea so several reasons, including but not limited to abandonment of the underlying petition. Please check INA for details.

I believe unless you filed I-485 under the revised fee structure last year, you need to pay for EAD and AP renewal every time you have to renew.

Everyone knows about Illegal immigration - no one knows about legal immigration.
We need to have a working group to generate awareness @ grassroot levels about legal EB immigrations - common voters, media, people working around you.
Working with lawmakers is ok but they don't get asked by their voters to support legal EB immigration first before illegal immigration. Hence lawmakers never feel pressure to support legal EB immigration.
We need to try to go to wider audience instead of targetted audience (lawmakers) - which has been IVs approach for long time.
People need to know us more than indian 'software' techies. They need to understand how we got there, how we contribute to society, maintain status & maintain job without years.
We need to look for support among all people who values skilled workforce...
(I hope IV admins won't kill this thread as they don't like their criticism - like $2 thread- )...

It is a new EAD and not an extension of your old EAD. You can go online and e-file and there is no need for a lawyer. As you have all your GC details including your Alien #, it is very straight forward.
Are you sure we can e-file ? How will we provide supporting documents like, copy of pending I-485, old EAD approval etc ? Is it safe to assume that USCIS will find out all those information by just Alien # ?
As far as I remember on the EAD filing instructions, they mention that employment based EADs are not eligible for e-filing. Or are they referring to H1Bs etc ?
Also, what if we don't get the new EAD before the current one expires ? Has anybody asked their lawyers ?
