Hi folks, sorry for posting this again, but I posted in the self-help area and nobody answered (I guess there's very little traffic there surprisingly)....

Hi Folks
I'm here in the US on a L1A visa and would like to apply for Green Card (I'm assuming i-485) soon. My wife who is currently outside of US has recently received her L2 visa within one business day I may add! So, we're waiting for her to join me here in the States within two months as she is currently working abroad and needs to wait for her bonus $...
In any case, I was thinking of applying for an EAD for her in conjunction of i-485, but I've been reading that others who are holding a H1 visa is also applying for an EAD (why on earth for?!) as you are allowed to work on H1 already no? I thought EAD is authorization to work only??
In my case, my wife needs EAD in order to work as L2 only allows her entry to the States and her visa would "clone" mine (ie. whatever my expiry date is, hers will expire).
Should I also apply for EAD too even though my L1a visa already permits me to work legally here in the US?
Do you have your I-140 approved? Green card is independent of your current status (L-1 or H-1); the speed of getting green card depends on what category you can apply (Eb-1, EB-2 or EB-3) and your country of birth (i.e., the country where you were born, not the country of citizenship).

Friends,
Looking at this 180 rule. I feel getting through this 180 days is being hell.
All this becuase we need freedom and going through rough times.
Good luck to one and all.
What if USCIS had not screwed up by using all "C"s in July bulletin? You would not have even filed AOS !! Think positively. And don't show even a sign that you are waiting for 180 days; just count them inside. Until then your sponsor can pull the plug anytime by revolking your I-140, and if that happens, you are back to square one.

I have an NRI home loan from the ICICI bank. I have been making the payment using my ICICI NRE account (via transferring money using ICICI Money2India service).
They have been charging me higher rates on the home loan also they do not give good conversion rate for the $ on the top of that they charge various fees & they held the $ transfer for week to give the lowest possible rate.
Anyway so, I decided to pay off the entire amount. I spoke to one of their bank officer that I want to pay off the entire loan and to my surprise I was told that I have to pay 2% fee for early payment of the loan.
I am wondering if some one else is also in the same boat & give me some advise how to save some money as money is really tight in this economy.
Thanks

Below is my understanding as I searched for answer sometime back.
yes, you can change employer. You have to get into similar job. The only problem is your H1 extension. For that, the old employer should not revoke the I 140. You old labor should be valid until you finish the GC process.
If anyone thinks othewise, letme know.

Can I file concurrently I-140 and I-485 if the labor is approved but haven't received the hard copy? What do I need to attach to these applications to substitute for the hard copy?

[QUOTE=copsmart;289590]My case is little bit different.
EAD was approved on August 11th and I got the card in mail couple of days after I received the email. But, I haven't received the approval notice for my EAD yet. The status on the EAD shows that the approval notice was sent on August 13th. I had no issues with AP though.
Am planning to apply paper based AP, can you give the list of docs required for the same.
Thanks

The problem here is that a large number of people whose pd is current have signed up for infopass to get their case status - knowing very well that this is nothing but a waiting game. This forum is full of infopass experiences where people have not got any information that they already don't know.
And now it is people like you, who really need an appointment, suffer.
Anyway, maybe you can just show up at the office and plead your case.
I have been trying to book an infopass at Hartford office for the past one month. I been trying to every 2 hours for at least 8 times constantly every day.
Every time I get a message saying "No information appointment is available at this time. Please try again later" message.
Any body have this problem. I have been trying to get infopass since my EAD is going to expire and I am experiencing delay in EAD renewal process.

Dear folks:
Fist of all, a definition of PLEDGE:
PLEDGE: A solemn promise or agreement to do or refrain from doing something. Example, a pledge of aid; a pledge not to wage war.
Situation:
More or less, all of us are aware of the importance of IV.org and how much IV means to us as an organization AND as an entity that strives to help us get out of the gut of current immigration situation.
We also know that a day will arrive when we (and spouse/kids) will have Green card in our hands.
If not next month, perhaps in another 6 months for some people. Or perhaps a year or two away and to some people, unfortunately, even longer.
But we will get it one day.
IV is a very active organization who is working hard in our best interest and it does not matter how you get the Green Card, IV will have, direct or indirect, contribution to it.
Proposal:
There was a thread going around few months ago on "how will you celebrate the day you get greened?" Some prefer throwing a party, some prefer vacation, some would overload gallons of alcohol in their body or some would donate money to their respective temples or church.
These are all good things to do. (OK. May be not the alcohol part) :)
In addition to the above, I invite you to celebrate that day by flowing some donation to IV. Just as a token of saying THANK YOU. This will help IV to continue to fight for other folks out there.
I invite you make a sincere pledge TODAY on how much money you would like to donate to IV on the day you get greened.
Nobody is going to twist your arm if you decide not to donate, but I trust that most of the people takes pride in keeping their word once given.
Even if 50 people among us get their green cards each month and each one of them decides to donate $100, it will amount to $5,000 to IV and it will help them fight for a cause for rest of the people out there.
No pressure.
Just an idea.
I myself pledge for $250 donation today.
Others are welcome to participate.

Hello all,
Is there a law that grant green card for a person who's been in the States legally for more than 10 years?
Thanks
Oh Yes there is a law and its called 'VISA BULLETIN'. The law is enforced every month by Lord Charles Oppenheim who is the judge & jury and USCIS being executioner and we all the defendants. Its one of the most fairest law which is primarily base on the country of your birth.
Here is the latest copy of the law http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_4659.htm
:p

Good advice vamsi_poondla. Changing job is always a problem in I-485 stage. Making this more flexible is one of the administrative fixes IV is proposing in the letter to the President. One more reason for everyone to mail that letter, if not mailed already.
correct please get to the core problem rather than duscussing the cursory nature of AOS status. We need to get a resolution to our problems. Please post the letters...!!

For a long time, between 2001 to late 2004, All PDs (EB1-EB5) were current. Main reason for this was, labor certification used to take 2-4 years during that time. If you do not have labor certification coming out, you always have visa numbers available. Just when PERM hit, retrogression came in to the picture.

For every IV member that gets their GC, would it be too much to ask them to contribute say at least $100/- ? May be this can become a norm and the starting point for an "IV Alumni" :)
The folks who will be getting their GC's in the next 2 months can show the way - Along with posting the happy news that you got your GC and of course posting your RD and ND and PD and the fact whether you had AC21 or EAD or whatever :), will it be too much to give something back to the community that helped you all the way?
I think this would be a noble gesture in support of this organization that has supported the cause of lots and lots of employment based immigrants.
