Tharu:
You can reply to the RFE exactly as you stated. That your wife and child are abroad and will be applying for visas at the U.S. post to accompany you, therefore they do not have A numbers or receipt numbers.
You must file I-824s for them if you have not already done so.

As usual to complicate decision making.... :mad:
Today PD (aug 2006 / EB3) is now current :) and I have my I 140 approved.
I also have another job offer which looks great. :confused: But they will start GC only after 3-4 months!
I feel It will be better file I-485.. Change after 6 months.
Should I just stick on to my current job and ride it out for 6 months to get EAD?
When does one get EAD 3 months after filing 485 or after 6?
Also if the dates retrogress, will 485 get approved? or Should the date remain current till 485 gets approved?
EAD after 3 Months...If date retrogess..you can change job after 180 days and ur wife can work too..

Hello there
I was in same boat except my extention is for 3 year. I asked Att. Ron same that my labor and I 140 is approved and what if I leave this company and join new one and current one withdraw all papers. As per RON once you have I 140 approved and even if company withdraw it u can get 3 years unlimited extention with new company as long as new company apply for GC. Doesnot mean u need anything approved but should be under process. PERM or I 140 OR I 485.

COBRA is a good option but I know its crazy expensive. They also have a high deductible plan. If your friend does not have kids (or even if he does) you could opt for HD plan - their premiums are much lower (< $500 for family). eg. for a doctors visit, under normal plan he would be paying 40$ copay and insurance would pay in-network negotiated rate of say $120. With HD plan he would need to pay $120 for doctors visit until he reaches deductible of $6k for the year. Not a bad option if you are healthy individual - covers you well in worst case scenario... Ask your family doctor in india to send you imp drugs, antibiotics etc etc. Within 100$ you can cover all medicine expenses...
If you need any help on that send me a PM.

My online 485 status shows "card/document production" for a long time now and I did not get the card yet. I had contacted USCIS several times thru lawyer and never got any reply. My lawyer said that could have been a mistake.
I finally called hte USCIS directly and got the reply from the Phone rep that my 485 is approved and will open a ticket to find out why my card has not arrived. After a week or so I got a letter from USCIS quoting my earlier call and said my PD is Jan'04 and currently the availablity is only for Apr '02 and I have to wait till the PD is current for case.
There was never an explanation about why my online status shows the card/document in production.
In this case, what are my options ? Please help.
Can't explain the kind of emotional and psychological trauma we go thru ever since we saw online status and subsequent messages from USCIS.

I opened a SR on July 24 2008. My priority date was going to be current starting Aug 2008, but still representative was kind enough to open SR for me . Guess at that time they were not getting bombarded by volume of calls.
It is almost 20 days and I have not received any response. CSR say it takes upto 45 days to respond.
- Did any body get a response back on their SR
- How much time it took to get response
- What format response is - Email / Letter / Call (are there any LUD's also)
- What is the content / detail level of response [Considering most of us are opening SR for case status and pending NC]
Thanks in advance
[ I am reposting this thread because in previous one I made mistake in subject, and didn't know how to edit it]
they have 60 days for sr..that is what the rep told me

Can i travel back to USA via London/UK without a valid US visa but with a valid AP?
London is kind of picky to make sure we have a valid US visa when traveling via their country and have to change planes.
My friend was coming back to USA via Emirates (Dubai/London/USA) and he was prevented to board the Dubai to London segment because he did not have a valid USA visa and they were not considering the AP documents.
Flew in on BA via London using my AP in February and everything was fine. They all know what an AP is. But I hope you are aware that you are required to have a UK transit visa since you do not have a valid US visa; just an AP. That's approx $92 per visa.
Or you can perform a search on these forums for a thread that listed the airlines (countries, actually) that do not require you to have a transit visa if you are reentering US on a AP.
Thanks,
Jayant

WASHINGTON�In light of the recent earthquakes and tsunami in Japan, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) reminds Japanese nationals of certain U.S. immigration benefits available upon request.
USCIS understands that a natural disaster can affect an individual�s ability to establish or maintain lawful immigration status. Temporary relief measures available to eligible nationals of Japan may include:
The grant of an application for change or extension of nonimmigrant status for an individual currently in the United States, even when the request is filed after the authorized period of admission has expired;
Re-parole of individuals granted parole by USCIS;
Extension of certain grants of advance parole, and expedited processing of advance parole requests;
Expedited adjudication and approval, where possible, of requests for off-campus employment authorization for F-1 students experiencing severe economic hardship;
Expedited processing of immigrant petitions for immediate relatives of U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents (LPRs);
Expedited employment authorization where appropriate; and
Assistance to LPRs stranded overseas without immigration documents such as Green Cards. USCIS and the Department of State will coordinate on these matters when the LPR is stranded in a place that has no local USCIS office.
Visitors traveling under the Visa Waiver Program may visit a USCIS local office (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.eb1d4c2a3e5b9ac89243c6a7543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=e39c0b89284a3210VgnVCM100000b92ca60aRCR D&vgnextchannel=e39c0b89284a3210VgnVCM100000b92ca60a RCRD) for assistance. Japanese nationals who are at a U.S. airport may contact the U.S. Customs and Border Protection office there.

I am working for a consulting firm and my 6 year H1 is expiring on March 2012. My I-140 is approved as of Dec 2008(EB3) - pd Aug 2007. I-485 not filed yet due to PD not current.
I have a fulltime offer from my client which is a global bank and so i would like to move to them
My question is I don't have I-140 approval notice, but have the receipt notice and also can print out the status on the USCIS website. Also I have my Alien #
My current employer wont give the copy of approval.
1. With this Can I apply for I-140 based 3-year transfer?
2. Also, once I get 3 years approved and join the new employer, if the old employer revokes I-140 will I be in trouble?
have not filed 485 there is no use for you of approved 140 except you can use the PD. You will have to start GC processing again with new employer.(PERM-140-485).
You should get a 3 year ext based on old employers 140.

Is the 3yr extension based on an approved 140 transferrable to another employer for the full duration of 3 yrs?
Yes. As long as I-140 is not canceled or revoked.

freinds,,,
I came to know that my 485 wld bet rejected and I wld be receiving all my applications as my employer has sent wrong fee to lawyer...
yesterday when I asked my company people to send the copies of all those checks that they have sent to lawyer and I found the 485 check has $385 on it....actually I just asked them after going through couple of threads related to 485 rejections in murthy.com...and got this bloody news..
I cleary sent mails abt sending $395 to my lawyer and our company has sent 385 it seems...due to the excessive volume of apps received at that time my lawyer office hasn't really checked all those checks it seems...they clubbed those checks with the my application and sent to TSC...and my lawyer informed that i wld get rejection....
can't they understand how sensitive it is?..can't they put their full mind while writing checks?...this is just ridiculous...
i have become victim of someones mistake,,,,,
i'm not saying that it is intentional but can't they be responsible?...
now after all this has happened they r talking abt SORRY stuff,,who cares...
friends,,psl help me,,,waht shld I do now...did anyone has similar case status?

Yes there are limits to salary. I will try to post more details on it when time permits and as I myself find details from my own research.
Basically, stay above what was in your labor/140. Do not go too high, 10% per year raise is ok. Job duties should stay same or similar. You can be a sr. software programmer from a software programmer but not a VP or Architect...(you got my point).
This is a gray area and tough to get a correct advice easily.
This is also a big issue for our community since people cannot get promoted or take big salary raises due to this limitation. Ask people who are stuck in 485 stage for many years.
I know a lot of people are counting days to just jump into a new job after 180 days. But make sure you factor in all the risks when you do this. Be prepared for an RFE on it.
and BTW I am reading so many posts that say you can jump jobs before 180 days. Please do not misrepresent the Yates Memo and regulations to prove a point. You need to stck to the job for 180 days definitely. The only exception is that if you are sure that the job offer will wait for you indefinitely in infinite future when you get an RFE. Do not take immigration laws lightly. And yes, always seek advice from a good lawyer when you take such important decisions. Forums are simply opinions from people without a law degree or experience.
will post more on this thread as I find more info
