my PD is April 2006, so i guess i would need to wait 1 year to get the dates moving, since it would be quite a huge backlog clearing up
any guesses when it would move next

First of all EAD is not a status - Its just a work authorization. GC is for a future job.
With EAD, you can work with your current gc employer, or do nothing, or do any other job.
The only important thing is that you must either be working in a same/similar job for any employer (using AC21) or have a valid job offer in the same/similar job classification as on the labor certification at the time of 485 adjucation. It is easy to get rfe if you are no longer working for the sponsoring employer.
At that time, you should not be actively searching for a job - You should have a job offer which shows the employer's intent to hire you on a future date.

Send school the copy of EAD and I-485 for her and that should be it. After that, they can report to whoever they want (ofcourse they won't because there is nothing to report since your wife can continue with the school on EAD without registering for cradit hours)
I need urgent advice from you. As you know my wife is on F1 visa and completed most of her credit hours needed by school. She has get only 1 credit hr to complete the course. However, that�s below 9 hr full time student status. She has been asked to register for additional 8 hrs..and pay tuition fee accordingly ( > 8K). Which I think is unreasonable. They told her that if she doesn�t register by tomorrow they have to report it to INS. She told them that she has EAD..there answer doesn�t matter in order to remain in school and F1 visa she has to register.
My questions is:
1) Can she continue working on her Thesis on her EAD and AP ?
2) What will happen to her f1 if she use EAD
In response to these questions my Lawyer said
1.) yes, she can continue to be a student as an adjustment applicant � she can work using the EAD and travel using the AP.
2) she is basically no longer an F-1 because she has demonstrated immigrant intent by filing the adjustment. Which is fine � she has valid legal status as an adjustment applicant and can work with the EAD and travel with the AP.
What do pro�s think..:)

I received RFE on my 140 on nov 15th. I came to know about this when i checked the status online. It says on Nov 15th we mailed you a notice requesting further evidence . I-140 Receipt date is dec 11 2006. I do not yet know what the RFE is about. How many days does it take for the RFE to arrive normally ??

Thanks,
I think so. I have one of my friend. His case got transfer to Texas. He filed 2 months earlier than me. He got approved already in late August.
Thanks,
Wata,
If I were you, I would rather wait atleast till Nov 2006 before converting I-140case to premium processing because as you said NSC is currently processing I-485 cases for Dec 2005 and it would take 5/6 months more from now to come to June/July 2006 to process I-485 at current pace. But Again this is my personal thought....
Moreover, in order to take advantage of AC21 portability you I-140/I-485 case has to be 6 months old. So getting I-140 approved through premium processing does no good as you would have to wait till Dec 2006 anyway for your I-140/I-485 case to become 6 months old.

Here is my situation, someone please suggest me:
I am using EAD to work for my GC sponsoring company and I got laid off. My HR says that they are going to inform USCIS that I am no longer working for them. HR also says that they won’t cancel my approved I-140 and going to rehire me once I get the new project.
My question:
When I joined them there is information to USCIS.I just filled I-9 form and gave it to the company, no information to USCIS. Now when I got terminated what is the need for the company to inform this to USCIS? Anyhow I am going to join them once I get the new project in couple of months. Is it a new law? Will there be any problem at the POE if travel outside US and come back using AP? Is there any chance that USCIS sends me RFE?
Thanks In Advance
If you are not on H1 there is no reason to inform the USCIS. Make sure that they are not including your I-140 receipt number or A#.
Actually informing that you do not have a job is sufficent to revoke your I-140.

I just called the office of a couple of senior members of the CHC. It takes a few minutes guys and it does make a difference. You only realize that after you call. Find out for yourselves.
They took down my name and location. If you are in the congressmans district then you definitely MUST call, it DEFINITELY has an impact as your call has five times the impact. Sometimes the aides will actually get into a conversation with you and then you, we and IV get to shine. Our cause is just, our request is least controversial and if we can persuade a few minds we stand a reasonable chance. Let me share with you an example.
The rep. from Congressman Guttierez office told me they were not blocking this bill, then I suggested that Congressman Guttierez is one of the leaders in congress on this topic and him taking an active lead in supporting these bills will convince a lot of other congressmen, so I am looking to him to lead on this. I told her that all immigration issues has been stalled in congress for over 3 yrs now and he needs to take the lead in getting the ball rolling again. I suggested that this will help build a coalition when CIR bill with most of the employment based provisions are discussed. However a movement on bills such as this will allow others to feel something can be done on this issue, right now there is paralysis. She agreed to speak with him on this and once again reiterated Rep. Guttierez is not blocking the Lofgren bills. I thanked her and asked if she could ask him to consider co-sponsoring the bills. She agreed to pass on the message.

I don't think it is true. My lawyer said using AP will not invalidate H1B.
I have seen many people saying they came through AP and extended H1B , some even 3 times.
Anyway, I am travelling outside and planning to use my AP while coming back. I will post a message if I come through H1B
Thanks Buddy !! PM me when you come back plz.

That one gives the description of the plight of GC aspirants not what kind of scenarios in different phases of GC are contributing this plight. What specific action by a congressman has to be taken which section of the law has to be modified in what exact wording should be. Many people say about issues and plight but what exactly has to be done and where and by whom. Sorry if I still missed the info other than the one you gave in the link

Are you kidding me with your posts? I can't decide whether to feel sorry for you or get angry with you. But I guess, I will move on since you obviously have issues to deal with...green card should be the least of your priorities!
My "bummer" post was specifically in response to WAIT_FOR_EVER_GC and whitecollarslave's posts about Masters in STEM. I read all the three bills and I stand by my statement that Masters in STEM are exempt ONLY from the H-1B cap; not the EB cap. (line 14 on page 2 of H.R. 5630 (http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=110_cong_bills&docid=f:h5630ih.txt.pdf).) It is only the PhDs who are exempt from the EB cap.
Before you start throwing "smart alecky" comments at others, please let me know where it explicitly says otherwise. Don't show me anything about PhDs; ONLY Masters and EB caps.
I (and probably others too) thought this was the STEM bill being reintroduced which deals with EB caps. But it is not, hence the disappointment.
Regards,
Jayant
P.S.: I know you are going to be back to read this thread. So a lack of response from you will be sufficient for me to have proven my case. But an apology for casting aspersions wouldn't hurt......naah, just kidding! :-) You have a lot of growing up to do, so run along.
Typical response just to defend......green card might be least of my priorities....but may be its your only priority for you !!!!!

"Yesterday, we described potential four options for the DOS and the USCIS. Unconfirmed sources indicate that the last option appears to be "out." ...."
And the last option is ....
"The fourth, which is important but difficult, option might be to change its rule to permit I-485 application, I-765 employment authorization application, and I-131 applications for the foreign workers and their spouses and children if the foreign workers have obtained the labor certification approvals."
So if this rumour is true, then no EAD's & AC21 after I-140 and before 485 :(

My friend Cyrus Mehta reports on a disturbing incident that occurred last week at Newark's international airport. Apparently CBP officers got hold of the new Neufeld memorandum on H-1B workers at third party work sites and decided to start applying it on their own. Aside from being contrary to established procedures for revoking visas, CBP officers made inappropriate comments and issued threats that cry out for some form of disciplinary action by DHS: It is then no surprise that the outrageous singling out of Indians since the New Year waiting in the line at Newark and other airports by CBP...

Say a person has finished his 6 years and got a 3-year extension based on an approved I140. Now, he is working in his 7th year and his 485 gets rejected. Would that mean he still has 2 more years of H-1B or does that mean he loses the remaining 2 years of H-1B time immediately since 485 got rejected?
