hassan,
If I were you I would keep the AP also in hand, just in case, you know to be on the safe side. we spend so much money in this freakin GC journey, may be AP is worth it, cos, you dont want issues after spending 24 hours of travelling of facing this crap in the POE.

What part of "illegal" does Rep. Hostettler not understand? According to Congressional Quarterly, in April 2004, Rep. John
Hostettler (the chairman of the House Immigration Subcommittee) was detained for carrying a loaded firearm inside an airport. He called the incident a "stupid mistake," explaining that he had carried the gun while traveling through his district during a congressional recess and forgot it was in his bag. Hostettler pleaded guilty to carrying a concealed deadly weapon and received a 60-day suspended sentence. Rep. Hostettler's own actions appear to contradict his hardline no-holds-barred enforcement approach towards immigration. Although he excuses his breaking of the law as a mistake, his actions indicate that some laws are OK to break and others are not. Perhaps Rep. Hostettler should reflect on whether undocumented aliens or our nation's broken immigration system is at fault.

I just wanted to bump this and get people's opinion on what paper work and other things we should be aware of by not changing the employers who sponsered our green card, but have applied for 485, have I-140 approved (180 days passed since I-140 approval and I-485 receipt dates) and received EAD/AP.
I guess lot of people are in this category. So far, the only advise I have seen is: Extend H1 instead of using EAD.

I am not sure, if this is true. I knew couple of people got H1 approved and never start working. They remained only in status H4.
So check with attorney.
Not true, lot of people assuming that their status will remain as H4 until they start working. If you file for change of status from H4 to H1, your new status will be effective from the start date shown on attached I-94. If you would like to get back to H4, (1) you file a change of status to H4 before the start date of H1 approval I-94 or (2) travel outside the country and get back on H4.
Honestly, on a lighter note, If you do not start working from the date shown on I-94, which means you are holding an H1 (status...) but out of status w.r.t immigration rules.

RFE means Request For Evidence. For an H-1 to be pending for more than 8 months without an RFE is a bit unusual.
Could you provide a brief chronology of your work history with exact dates so that I can get a clearer idea of whether USCIS is likely to find that you were/are out of legal status?

Hey Gurus,
What are the chances for ROW-EB2 to go backlog in OCT 2007. My wife's employer is filing for the LABOR this month. We are keeping our finger's crossed that it will be current in OCT this year.
What do you guys think about that? Thanks.

Hello experts,
My situation:
1) H1- I have completed 6 years on H1 in Oct 2010.Out of six years,I stayed out of US for more than 1.5 years.
2) EAD- I had ead since 2007 but started using it since Oct 2010 for first emplyer.
Now using ead for working with the present (second) employer as a permanent employee.
3) AP- getting AP regularly since 2007.Used AP twice in 2010 and once in 2011.Initially my H1 emplyer asked me to use it,since I was not on project.
In 2011, I used it,since my H1 was also expired.
4) I-485 - filed in July 2007 only for myself on EB3( my family didn't able to come to US during that period)
PD July 2006
Earlier my family was situated in India and had H4, so they were able to travel.Since kids are studying ,they prefered to stay there for education.
Now I am in difficult situation, since if family decides to come to US after the education, they won't be able to travel , since they lost their dependent status.
Using travel visa won't be helpful for longer stay.
My previous H1 emplyer told me that the family greencard applications could be filed once the PD becomes current.Based on present dates,it is going to take 5-6 years.
Options: Is it possible to convert from ead to H1?[I want to use H1 only for the family to maintain their H4 status.With H4, they could be able to travel as per the situation.
Since I am working as a permanent employee, it will be easy to renew/maintain H1.
Is it possible to convert ead to H1? What could be the consequences?
Please advice.:confused:
Thanks

For H4:
USCIS does not give any document stating the fact that AOS is pending. Although EAD is not required to be present in USA, if H4 is not there, only EAD is proof of valid stay.
So if SSN is not there or DL (or state ID) is expired then you need EAD - EAD renewal is up to you.

Looks like the EB2 dates for india have retrogressed by two years. I am applying for green card and would like to know if I shouls go with EB2 or EB3.
Thanks for your help...
Truth:
------
USCIS has decided to keep EB2/3-IN,China,Mexico,Philipines applicants in virtual jail for an average 7 to 10 years. So in reality it does not matter what you choose. Whatever you select you will be at mercy of USCIS. Only one thing you should do, in my opinion, not to become monkey if your real goal is to achieve GC in short span of 4 to 5 years. As you hop trees add more number of years per hop. By the way this is the first month you see EB2 retrogressed.
EB3 was in hell for last 4 years. So I am seeing at least 2 years for EB3 moving fast. Your category will be in real effect after at least 4 years of your filing and you can not predict what will happen after 4 years. Only one action is in your control and that is not to hop seeing short term gain."Exploitation from employer" OR "Temporarily seeing particular catgory moving fast or slow" are not good reasons for hoping in the path what USCIS has defined. SO if you try to cross that then you will be in this hell for more years. Whatever you select stick to it till the day you get your GC.

A) 140 or 485 gets denied and you're on EAD (it means you've already given up your H-1B)
B) 140 gets denied and you're on H-1B (it means you can't use EAD and you can't even stay in this country for 3-4 months without a job on H-1B and still maintain your status)
Gurus, please correct me, if I'm wrong.
Thanks.

If we don't stop this EB1C fraud completely by the MNCs for their so called managers, our EB3s will be the big loosers who are legally waiting for years and years having a very better qualifications and an experiances than any of the so called managers. This helps EB2 I & C to be current. Yes it will because every year we could expect about 25k spill over from EB1 itself. That helps for EB3s porting/spilling.
.
I just send hard copy letters again this week. Costs nothing, great impact.
This is NUMBER 1 ACTION ITEM for EB3 friends.

Hi,
After filing I-485/EAD/AP in July, if wife's current student status expires (in Oct) before the EAD card arrives, then what will be her status?
Will we need to file for H4?
Thanks,
Ams

Thanks Snathan this will be the best. Problem I am facing is that no one is willing to start GC process unless I join them and they start making money to offset the costs. Can you suggest someone who can help?
1. If you stick to your current company, you might make money for few months but you are loosing all that extra cushion i.e. you need time for h1 transfer and applying for labor.
2. If you don't trust and join the new company why would they trust you
3. Body shoppers have mutual interest. They do it for money. They would not start your GC process unless you join them
4. As Snathan said, by the time you file your h1 and get it transfered it will take time. so why not do it.
5. If you want your GC process take risk.
6. Money is not always the crietria. Go gain some thing you need to loose something.
I wish you both good luck on finding your new employer and filing GC.
Play safe.

Hi Everyone,
Is it really necessary to inform USCIS of change of address.
Do mails,notifications or cards from USCIS get forwarded to the new ADDRESS like all other mails.
Will appreciate your views.
