Hi!
I was wondering what are the benefits of EAD to primary(H1B) applicant before 180 days, i understand that AC21 & it's benefits can be invoked after 180 days from receipt date.
But is there any benefit of having EAD if 180 days from 485 receipt date are not over ?

It is not clear to me why there is inconsistency on whatever they reply for the processing of NSC-->CSC-->NSC cases. Sometime I hear NSC mentions that these transfer cases would be processed based on CSC processing date (which doen't make sense because CSC stopped processing of I-485 caes, so how CSC processing date would move and the transferred case is waiting in NSC not in CSC) and sometime I hear NSC mentions those cases would be processed based on NSC processing date. Which one is actually true ?
I am wondering so far have we seen any approval from NSC for NSC-->CSC-->NSC transferred cases whose processing date RD/ND falls in 2007 (after the 2006 processing date of CSC).

I am currently working for a company at Chicago,IL on OPT (Optional Practical Training) period which is of one year. I have graduated as Electical Engineer from NJIT,NJ this year and is authorized to work during the OPT. Unfortunately the OPT is ending on 11th February, 2007.
I applied for H1B through the same company at Chicago but missed it as the CAP was closed by 28th August, 2006. Hence, I am currently working on the OPT work authorization.
I am aware that I will be out of status after February 11th at the end of my OPT tenure. I am planning to re-apply for H1 with the same company again well in time next year. As I will be out of status until I get my H1B application accepted and approved possibly by October'07, what are the best options available for me to legally stay here in USA with a valid status during the period until October 2007. Time is short and I needed to work out some thing quick.
I shall be grateful to any one who could send in your valuable advise.

I would appreciate if someone could answer the following question. Before I ask my question, below is a brief background:
- H-1b Date Started: October 2005
- Current H-1b expiration: August 2010 (when I switched my last job in August 2007, they extended for 3 years)
- Date of filing labor: January 10, 2010
- Time outside US on H-1b: about 90 days.
My attorney at work said that I would still need approximately another two months (comfortably) of time outside of the US that they can recapture. This extension would take me into late January 2011, more than one year past the point of the PERM filing. They can, at that point, apply for a 'seventh year' H-1B extension based on my PERM process having been pending for more than one year.
Here is my question. Since I am currently in my fifth year of my h-1b, would it be possible now to apply for the sixth year of h-1b visa until October 2011 instead of looking at seventh year? I started my h-1b in October 2005. Therefore, I have until six years before my h-1b visa can expire, is that correct? If this is not correct, I would appreciate if anyone has any other suggestions to avoid travelling for 2 months out of US prior to July 2010.
Thank you.

Hi All,
I have recently applied for my wife's EAD to Phoneix Lock box and got the Receipt from NSC with the LIN number. RD: 02/25/11 and ND:02/28/11. Check also got cashed. I tried to access that receipt number in USCIS case status website online to get the status yesterday 03/09/11; it says the case number is not found. I am sure I typed the correct receipt number. Any idea what could be wrong? Has anyone experienced this before? Should I contact the customer service? Please help me.

HI All,
Anyonw planning on going to school this year full time? I am planning to...I have an EAD/AP that I can use and I know several IV'ans may be debating the same isssue
Now for the gurus who have already researched this:
1. Can one avail of financial aid (FAFSA) if has Advanced parole. I'm not 100%sure because its says 'indefinate parole" and i'm not sure if ours can be classified as "indefinate"
2. How does one activate EAD/AP (does one have to travel outside the country). I am currently still on H1B with 3 year extension granted but visa not stamped
3. One can go to school F/T on EAD. But what are the options to preserve one's PR application (..after all its been over 5-6 years since we filed are applications)...assuming its been over 6 months since I485 was filed and AC21 benefits kick in. And, is a leave of absence a better option than quitting.
I wanted to start a debate of what we are doing because I know several of us will be in the same boat.

Hi Folks
My Labor was approved under EB2 as the job required a Master's Degree but the Lawyer by mistake filed my I140 under EB3 and was approved Oct 2006. The mistake was noticed in May 2007 when we were planning to file for I485. The lawyer refiled my I140 under premium processing on may 23 2007. I checked the status on line and the LUD is May 27 saying application was received. The lawyer told me that CIS is waiting for 'original labor notice' from the labor dept.
Its been 2 months now and I am getting worried.
Anyone who has been in similar circumstances or familiar with this situation pl help.

I think these bills are too complicated and have possibilities of failing on the house floor, even if they pass through the senate..
My question to the group is: Does it make sense for us to lobby for changes to existing laws as 'amendments/enhancements' (do not know the exact term), which need not go through this full-blown congressional approval process.. Another issue that we are facing with the bills such as immig. comprehensive bill is that we get tagged together with illegal immig., so it becomes all the more probable to get rejected. I am just being realistic and urging the IV team to add one more action item to the agenda and see if we can put some efforts towards this additional agenda.
I think, in addition to supporting the bills, we should look at this additional possibility. Something like allowing I-485 even though the number is not available, just requires an amendment to the existing law. It does not require additional quota, so there is no major impact to immigration law as a whole. So, we may not need to wait for a bill to clear, in order for such reliefs to be approved.
My take is: we should strive for 3-pronged approach - 1) near short term approach is to ask for immediate relief such as I-485 filing without the visa number availability; there may be other such reliefs possible - 2) short term approach is to support the current bills being considerd, as we are doing already - 3) long term approach is to think of what is the backup plan in case 1 and 2 fails
Just thinking out loud here.

My application was received on July 3 at NSC. Till now, I haven't received any notices. I got the RNs by calling USCIS.
Now, I placed an expedite order on my EAD on Friday. They sent me a mail saying my app was received on Oct 10 and not July 3 (yeah right! if it was oct 10, why would you even accept it?). So I faxed them the fedex delivery signature confirmation. Today I see a LUD on my EAD app but nothing else has changed.
Can anyone shed some light on what might possibly going on here? I can probably wait for some more time to find out for sure but I am curious. Guys with approved EAD - did you see a LUD on your app before it was approved?
Thanks

Here's my situation in briefest form. I'm engaged to a woman in the Philippines. She worked as a domestic helper in Kuwait from about 2005 to 2007, a period of about 2.5 years total.
I understand that as we move forward on our K1 application (I'm an American just be clear) she'll be required to submit police reports for anyplace she has lived for more than 6 months. She doesn't have such an item from Kuwait, and it seems nearly impossible to obtain such a report. The websites all say that this document is only given to 'current residents'.
How can we obtain such document, and what if we can't? It seems unfathomable that the US Gov would request a possibly unobtainable document and then permanently deny our chance to live in the US together, if we are absolutely unable to obtain this document?
Does anyone have any advice, or can tell me what happens in a situation such as this?
Thanks for any help.

Hi,
I am trying to renew my EAD/AP myself and wanted to check if I will be getting the EAD card and AP documents by mail to my address.
I am avoiding the lawyer, as he's charging unreasonable amount.
Question:
When self-filing, would I be getting the EAD/AP documents at my home address???
Thanks.

Dear All:
I am currently in my 7th year on H-1B (with I-140 approved) and my H-1B Visa expired a year ago and my current I-94 valid until next 2 years (same case for my dependants).
I am switching my employer now and my family is planning to goto India and when they go for visa stamping through my new employer - do you think they will get into the trouble because my visa (with old employer) is already expired?
And FYI - myself/my fmaily already had US Visas stamped for atleast 4-5times already in the past through various employers.
