I believe my situation is a lot similar to man-woman-and-gc except maybe that I am single. This is what I have achieved so far after sticking to Company A for 4.5 years (this one was pretty big in size; so didn't have to worry about any paperwork):
1) I-140 approved in August 2008 (total of 198 days till date i.e. March 5th 2009)
2) I-485 pending since July 2007 (USCIS receipt date of September 29 2007)
3) EAD valid till October 2010
4) H1-B valid till October 2010
5) PD: Feb 2007
However as a preemptive measure against any potential layoff from company A, I have started looking around. I am preparing a checklist of things that I have to inform the other companies (say company B) so that the transition is smooth. The 2 main things I can think of to talk about with any potential employer are:
1) I DEFINITELY want to maintain my H1-B; so they will have to transfer it. I will be pushing this to make sure I have the flexibility to get a dependent at any time
2) They will have to help me MAINTAIN my GC process. For example any minor changes in the position requirements to show that the job is similar or same. Thats one reason I am primarily looking at similar work profiles
I would GREATLY appreciate if someone from this thread can point me to any location or list out the things that I should be extremely careful about or notify to both my previous employer and the future employer to avoid any future pains in my GC process. A few things that I remember are as follows, but please provide more information that may be missed out here:
1) Do I have to ask Company B to apply for anything relating to my GC? I want to make sure that they know and agree to all costs associated with the paperwork? Dont want to end up paying from my pocket as I have heard in a few cases before
2) I believe since my I-140 is approved for more than 180 days or actually my I-485 being filed for more than 180 days, I am allowed to move, correct?
3) Since my I-140 is approved and I have an EAD, can USCIS/Company A cause it to be revoked? OR it doesn't apply to my case?
4) Do I need to ask Company A to maintain anything? Or just keeping good relations with them is enough :)
Thanks a lot to everyone in advance. Please let me know at your earliest convenience as you never know when opportunities come knocking at your door. Its better to be prepared ;)

My fiance came to the US from Mexico on a short term Visitors Visa more than 14 years ago and did not return to Mexico when it expired. No extensions were ever applied for. She has been working and paying taxes since shortly after coming to the US. I am a US born citizen, and have an income capable of sponsering her. Her own employment record is quite good as well. I understand that there would likely be an interview process which we should easily pass since we have had a lengthy multi-year relationship.
1) What are the steps for legalizing her status after we are married?
2) Will she be required to stop working while her application is considered?
3) Would she be required to leave the country during processing?
3) What is the average time required to go through the process?
4) What are the restrictions on her traveling outside the US during/after the process of legalizing her status?
I will be seekign an immigration lawyer to nail this down and start the process, but need a framework of the process and considerations, so we can get through this as easily as possible.
Thanks in advance for your help

I had the same issue. Because in my passport surname was missing ( not missing but it was added at the end of my first name) that triggered an FNU in H1 visa.
But in my h1 petition it came out ok. and in I-94 i wrote my name correctly. so that was not an issue. and DL and SSN it came out OK based on I-94.
i corrected it in my passport first. then during H1 visa renewal it got corrected automatically.
even though you have FNU in visa, mention your name correctly in your I-94. otherwise every official document(SSN, DL etc.,) will have FNU as your first name. My friend suffered a lot
because of this issue and he had to go back to india and come back with right I-94 and corrected the rest of the documents later.
Hope that helps.

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 e-filed EAD renewal. On the I-797 Notice of Action that they mailed me, the "Priority Date" field is blank. The same is true for my last EAD notice of action as well which I did not check last time. Is it normally blank?
Is anybody else in the same boat?

Gurus..
My labor has been pending from Jan 03. I am having a combined Bachelor's degree which was not mentioned in the Form 750A[mentioned as Bachelors] I came to know that couple of days back after my attorney informed me that she had sent a amendment latter to change my status two months back after waiting for 3 long years to add "combination of Bachelor's degree".
Should I be really worried at this stage and did any body had this problem or did you amend the 750A form from PBEC.
Guru�s please giving your advice.

I realize the miscommunication on my part so I apologize to my previous post that i didnt understand the reply.

EB3 PD is Feb 2005
I 140 approved filed 02/2006
I485 07/2007
RFE for EVL April 2009 submitted

I remember reading if you travel outside the country while your AP is pending, it will be considered abandoned and you may not receive approval or any refund.
Check with your attorney
This is unfortunately a little incorrect advise. H1B is a dual intent visa, which means it can be held TOGETHER with your AOS or 485.
As long as you use your H1B to travel, you are fine.
Have a good trip

I'm in the process about to use "AC21"
Original employer filed I40 under "electrical engineer" :: SOC Code 17-2071 (approved)
have EAD but never used.
Inside the job description there are entitled strong software background - job duties included programming and software development also. As a requirement a 3year of Software Engineering experience was entitled also.
Situation: Laid off, but received a job offer letter. BUT the position is "software engineer" job code is some 15-XXXX.
Detailed job description/duties will be the same;
Old employer/layer is not revoking anything, willing to help.
Will this stand if they request an EVL or later on the road?
According to my research they not strict about the job codes they more go by the job description and duties.
I'm sure lots of folks are in the same situation, please advice.

Dear Attorney,
Is there any minimum length of time to be on H4 before applying to H1.
Thanks
There is no minimum requirement to be on H4 for COS to H1. One should meet H1 application requirements and the cap should be available and should have maintained legal status
BTW, I am not an attorney.

Hi Gurus,
Here is my situation. Have H1B expiring on June 2008. Planning to Renew. I-140 approved last Month. I485 applied and pending for more than 180 days. Have EAD, AP.
Now - I am planning to switch to another job for Title , Hike. Not happy with the current company.
I have the following question :
1) If I switch,what will happen to my I-485 / I-140. do I need to reapply ? . do I lost my priority date.
2) If I go to India, what will happen to My 485/140. Can I change AOS to consular processing.
Please advise.
1. Use Ac21
2. Are you going to India for a visit or long time? you need to come before ur AP expires and get a new one(If H1 is not valid)
Otherwise you can take a vacation on H1.
For Cp you have to withdraw your 485 application and refile your application.

Can some one please shed some light on this May 15, 2005 cut off date and its significance ? Does it affect folks who have already filed for labor and I-140 after this date and have got it approved .... say sometime in 2006 ?

You have answered your own question. This immunization protects you from most forms of TB and causes you to have a positive skin test since you have antibodies in your system to attack the PPD test ingredients when they are put under your skin.
Not sure why you are worried about it? This is no different from the other vaccinations you were given as a child that you had no choice on.
I am from the UK and every child was given the BCG vaccine for decades, normal course of growing up.Thanks for your reply.
