I filed my EAD online for the first time on May 9th. Yesterday I got an approved card for my wife and I. It is interesting how fast that came and that I did not need to send pictures nor did I go for fingerprinting. My initial finger printing and picture taken for 485 was used to give me the EAD
However, NSC issued the EAD for 1 year only. I called up help desk and asked them why 1 year and not 2 years. They checked their records and saw I was eligible for 2 year, then they transferred me to Level 2 support. The Level 2 support after looking at my case, put me on hold for sometime and then came back and said, the period of EAD was done at the discretion of NSC. So if I do not want it, I should send it back and ask them to reopen my case.
Guys any advise or should I wait for 1 year and hope next year they will issue a 2 year EAD?? I really do not want to send my EAD back...

Can the core group let us know what are they targeting right now? Are they targeting CIR next month? The lack of direction will really lead to less contribution. Without that,I will have a hard time convincing other friends about IV.
Have the core members given up and decreased their activity?
Core group is working hard and is commited despite lack of full support and nagative comments they get on this site or other sites. Work will go on no matter what.
Pls join your state chapter to know what we are doing and speak with us directly and get direction. You will also get updates.
In your CA state chapter there was a conference call tonight and I was invited. I joined in and only the organizer and myself were there. There was nobody else there. We both spoke for one hour and I gave update to that member because I felt that I should value a commited member who is willing to make an effort and will be willing to do the work even if it means doing it alone without help from fellow members. We request members to help themselves by helping us and we can all togeher achieve our aims.

Hello, I lost my job today, but I have H1B. So what's the time gap for finding a new job?
Thank you very much.
You should find a new job before you are "off the roles" from your current employer.
One would be out of status the moment "employer-employee" relation ceases/terminates.

This is from
http://britishexpats.com/forum/showthread.php?t=258654
In previous years, INS made a distinction between H-1B1 (Specialty Occupation) and H-1B2 (Fashion Model). These days they've dropped the distinction-- specialty occupation workers and fashion models get identical approval notices, indicating simply "H-1B." The H-1B1/H-1B2 distinction is gone, for all intents and purposes.
H-1B visa status allows "dual intent," i.e. the intent to work temporarily in the U.S. and return home at the end of the H-1B period, plus the intent to apply for a green card (and not return home), should the opportunity become available. In other words, H-1B visa holders can pursue a green card with no adverse effects. Many of the other visa categories (e.g. F-1 student, B-1/B-2 visitor, and even E-2 treaty investor) allow only "non-immigrant intent." Having applied for a green card or abandoned one's residence abroad can be grounds for denial of one of these visas.
So you can calm down ...have some lunch...
Please donate to IV ..That is in your self-interest...

Hi All,
My Parents are planning to come to US sometime in th month of Aug 08, and would return back to India in Nov 08. If they want to come back in Jan 09 will that be a problem. What is the time gap that is required for a visitor to re-enter US.
Thanks!!!

I am on my 9th year extension of my H1B. I have to leave to my home country at a short notice. I have H1B stamped on my passport. However it expires at the end of September. I may not be back until the first week of September.
I have already filed for my H1B extension and I am waiting for my Receipt notice.
Will there be any issue coming back into US when my visa stamped on my passport is valid for less than a month. I don't think my extension will be processed by then.
Anyone on this forum who has had similar experience in the past?
Thanks for your response in advance.

Hi,
is it absolutely safe to travel with pending i 485 app with valid h1b stamping with receipt notice and completed fp.?we are kind of confuded whether to plan for the travel...We have not yet received the actual advance parole. i read somwhere that if u leave the country wth pending i 485 but without ap ur appl is considered abandoned.is this true.?..we have the option to change the trip to apr too.In a nutshell is it completely safe to travel on 485 pending appl without ap with valid stamping.?:confused:
Has any1 wth the same situation has gone and come back without any issues?
Gurus ur input s greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Whats your PD? If you are on H1, have a stamping and already have the 485 receipt, the only possible issue with travel is if your 485 gets approved when you are abroad. People have still managed to enter on H1 as PoE officer apparently does not realize about your 485 approval.
If its a recent PD, then no issues, you can travel (Actually my lawyer told me I can travel even without getting the 485 receipt, but thats apparently a bit of a grey area)

People who get labor approved in August, can they avail current window provided by USCIS and concurrently file 140/485?
Thanks for replies
Same thing happened with me - My labor was approved from Phily BEC on Mar 16th 07 and my company kept saying that didn't receive anything till Apr 16th 07...
Then i was impatient and called Phily BEC and they were very nice to explain me that it can take upto 1.5 months to 2 months for my company to receive via Lawyer. In fact it may take 1 month for Phily BEC to mail - he explained.
Eventually my company received the Labor papers on May 7th 07....
Hope this story helps.

All,
Today my attorney informed me that TSC approved my I-140. Sighhhhhh.... Approval notice has Notice Date of September 18th. My employer did not receive their copy to date. Ofcourse, I was doing my daily ritual, anxiously checking status several times a day.
USCIS website still showing "Case Received and Pending", ever since I received my receipt to date. Also my 9th year H1 extension for which I received approval notice almost 5 months back, still shows 'Case Received and Pending' to date.
I know many of us praying for a LUD, checking status several times a day. But also check with your attorney/employer as this website status thing appears another USCIS blooper.

Hi All,
Need some piece of advice. My H1B is expiring on 07-15-08, On July 2nd my I-140 was filed in premium processing. My LC is not 365 days old, so i need I-140 to apply for 3 year extension of my H1. Since it takes max of 15 calander days for I-140 to go through it may protentially get approved on July 18th and the approval may arrive in a week after that. Since I dont have a basis for requesting H1 extension , I am wondering how I can stay in status from 15th July till i get I-140 approved.
Any ideas?
Appreciate your response.

The Department of State has published a pamphlet educating nonimmigrant visa holders on their rights. The pamphlet covers the visa process, important documents, workplace and employee rights, human trafficking, and how to file a complaint. This is a very useful document, not just for immigrants. See here (http://www.travel.state.gov/pdf/Pamphlet-Order.pdf) to download.

Since AC21 does not go in any official USCIS form, it is better to attach with G-28. My attorney did that and USCIS had acknowledged their receipt of the G-28 and supporting documents. The Ack was a letter to me and the attorney when my (new) attorney opened a service request inquiring the attorney of record after 4 weeks of filing G-28 and AC21 documents.
Good luck.
