Hello everybody,
I am trying to locate people from the nebraska service center, who have a received date of aug 15th and notice date of Oct 11.
Please let me know if any of you have received ypur EAD yet or is it approved yet?
I am running out of patience.
Thanks,

I filed I-485 in July 2007 through my employer (EB3 with Priority date - 02/2004) and my wife filed her I-485 adjustment of status at the same time. We don't have our H-1 visas anymore and using EAD & AP for employment and travel.
We want to adopt a child in India as Inter-country adoption (as a Indian resident). For this, my wife have to travel to India and stay with the child for two years from the date of guardianship.
As there is no Green Card in sight for EB-3:
1. If she stays in India for two years, will it affect her I-485 application? If yes, how can we avoid that - like travel back to US once in a while etc.
2. As per US Immigration law, the parent(s) has to stay with the adoptive child for two years. Assuming that my wife stays with the child for 2 years in India, will the child get a visa so that we can bring the child to US? or do we need to file a I-485 for the child? What happens if my GC is approved within that 2 year period? Can we still bring the child to US? On what type of visa/status?
Appreciate any help in this regard.

Well, thankfully, you are EB2 so you won't have to wait long.
Good luck!

Could some one please clarify?
My wife and I were entered on AP lately and since I work for the same employer, I am still working on my H1 and am planning to extend my H1. My wife is working on EAD, can she still able to apply for H4 based on my H1? We want to have her H4 as a back-up!
Thanks
As soon as your wife used EAD, her H4 status was gone.
For you it would still be safe to continue working on H1.
Your advantages are:
1) Having dual status (H1B and AOS) is better than one.
2) You do not have to worry about EADs for yourself.

As stated above, interim EAD is not anymore issued at local center. What you can do after 90 days has lapsed, schedule an infopass appointment and then ask to expedite your EAD. In most cases, it doesn't exceed 90 days. A few unlucky one's had it in about 110 days!

Here (http://www.dphoto.us/forumphotos/showgallery.php?cat=1377) are a few pictures from my excursion to Turkey Run S P last weekend. While my camera performed better than I expected from a late-90's era 2.7MP DSLR, I didn't fare so well, coming home with far fewer "keepers" than I would have liked. My greatest problem was that I either didn't set up a tripod or failed to increase the ISO to get more DOF in many landscape shots that needed it, and frequently I also got motion blur from lack of tripod usage. This experience has taught me that for me personally, even though the D1 is 2 stops faster than Velvia, I still must slow down and use a tripod - not only to prevent blur and enable slower exposures, but also to force a slower and more thoughtful pace of composition.

As a California immigration lawyer who files many asylum cases, I am used to thinking of a the United States as a place of refuge and to documenting the horrible country conditions of other countries. I have successfully represented applicants for asylum who feared staying in their countries because while serving in their countries' armies, they were harmed on account of their sexual orientation.
It is therefore rather surprising to come across a story of a U.S.soldier who is fleeing to Canada (http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2009/11/20/refugee-board-soldier-lesbian.html) because she fears harm in the U.S. Army on account of her sexual orientation. According to CBC news, U.S. Army Pte. Bethany Smith fled Canada in September 2007 from a U.S. Army base in Fort Campbell, Ky. She applied for refugee status in October 2007, saying that she was harassed and threatened by fellow soldiers over her sexual orientation and feared that her life would be in danger if she were deported and returned to the army. The Canadian authorities initially rejected in her claim in February 2009. However, on appeal, the Federal Court of Canada held that the refugee board must reconsider the case again because the Board made several mistakes in initially reviewing her claim.
The Federal Court's decision (http://www.californiaimmigrationlawyerblog.com/Smith%20and%20the%20Minister%20of%20Citizenship%20 and%20Immigration.pdf)noted that the refugee board failed to fully consider the evidence pertaining to the situation of gays and lesbians in the U.S. Army to determine whether Pte. Smith could have availed herself of protection in the United States. The Federal Court also noted that the Board failed to determine whether Pte. Smith would be persecuted on account of her social group - as a lesbian in the U.S. Army if forced to return. There were other errors mentioned in the decision.
It is sad that the U.S. policy of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," is the basis of an asylum claim in Canada. Pt. Smith was only 19 years old when she fled to Canada. From everything I read, it appears that she wanted to serve in the U.S. Army and no real desire to leave the United States. At a time when we apparently need people to serve in the Armed Forces and in fact give non-citizens a way to immigrate to the United States faster for their service, it seems ridiculous that an American citizen should have to leave. It it is time to eliminate the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy.

I am also looking for attorneys in the DC metro area to help me with AC-21 questions/process. I was looking at the obvious choices Rajiv Khanna and Murthy - but if you have any other suggestions it would be helpful.
Thanks....

Form AR-11 asks for the date my stay in the United States will expire. What date should I use? Currently, I am on working on EAD (I-485 pending) and last entered US on AP.
Note: Sorry for a duplicate thread. I posted my previous one in I-140 section. :confused:
if you were paroled in put the date you were paroled in to. see I-94

As the title suggest, it is meant for folks who have invoked AC21 (1-140 approved, I-485 filed & pending more than 6 months, job desc almost similar) successfully and unsuccessfully.
If you have successfully transferred, can you comment on the experience, any denial notices that you had to overcome? Have you got the green card finally?
If unsuccessful, what issues are you facing? Is there some work around or going back to desh is the only option?
Thoughts/Comments--from AC21 league members.
Thanks

You can take $5k each in cash. And unlimited if it is Travellers checks.ON Travellers checks you are going to pay commission and crap. I do not personally recommend it. I do not know how it is working now adays. You can check on department of homeland or customs website to find exact amount that you can take as cash. And do not take more than what is recommended.

Friends,
I am currently working at a systems company based on my EAD (H1 has expired). PD is Jun 2006.
I intend to marry a woman who is currently on F1 visa. I would like to know if there are any pitfalls from immigration point of view.
I understand that she can get an EAD only when my PD becomes current.
Can she file her I-485 petition based on my approved I-140? If yes, would she continue in F1 status (or what will her status be?).
Any other potential pitfalls in this particular scenario?
Any pointers would be useful.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Guys,
Based on other threads on this forum, I see a lot of I-485 approvals(EB2 I) at TSC for receipt numbers starting SRC# and whose PD is current . Just wondering if any one got I-485 approved whose application is a transferred from Vermont(EAC) to TSC?
Please shed some light on this!
Btw, my receipt date is 07/07 (EAC). PD current. Case transferred to TSC with a receipt date of 09/11.
Thanks

Consider filing a complaint with AILF. But do so at your discretion, as relationships are also *VERY* important in these matters. Better not to burn to many bridges.

Called both the senators. Specter's office said that the senator won't be proposing any amendments.
Basically, standard reply from both, they realize that there are holes and they will keep our feedback in mind.

I meant before I am out of status.
Also, if there are no paystubs for that period, are there any implications in regards to GC processing or any other way ?
Thanks a bunch.
OzIn Some Cases USCIS may ask paystubs before approving the H1(So be careful with company A..you need them until you get the approval notice). In case of GC, couple of months will not effect the process.
