It is required that you send photos for your ead as they put your picture on the actual ead card. I did not apply for AP so I am not sure about the requirements for that. Good luck to you.

It's simple: marry first, apply for H4, then enjoy your honeymoon. Come to the US and apply for H1.

Has the LC/PERM been approved based on EB2 is the question? IF yes, you should also try for it and ask your employer.

The title is misleading - can be interpreted as "You are leaving your job and wife because you got an RFE and you want to know if there is any problem?"
I know, I saw it now and had a good laugh. Its just the job. I would have many more problems, besides GC, to consider if I were leaving her !!:)
I wanted to find out if my wife's application could get into trouble because I left my employer who filed my GC application. Ideally, her case is dependent on mine and not directly to my employer, so I am thinking it should be fine. But wanted to get some expert opinions.

My AP was approved while my wife's it was denied with reason "there is no pending I-485". My PD is 22 Nov 05 which is not yet current so I don't understand why they denied derivative spouses petition while mine was approved. We had an interview back in January and everything went on well there. Did anyone have similar issue? What are my options? I do not want to spend money and file for motion to reopen.
Thank you.
Did you send copy of I-485 receipt of her petition on the supporting document package?

Howdy?
I had filed my 485 during the VB fiasco, but did not file for ead/ap, as my H1 was valid. I intend to apply now but not sure what the filing fee is? Can one of you guys who might have filed later guide me on what the fee amount is and the documents that need to go with it. Is Efiling an option?
USCIS website says $340 for the EAD and $304 for AP, but I guess it is the new fee and does not apply to folks who had their AOS filed before July 30, 07.
Thank you.

Gurus,
I just received my EAD now. Though I am a 485 july filer, applied for EAD only in January.
My 6 th year H1 will come to end in Oct. Because 180 days since 485 filing is over, I want to use AC21 and change the Employer now, and I am thinking why to go again for H1. I have the EAD, and why not use it, though I will be joining another desi employer.
Does it seem the right thing to do? But everyine else I know changing the employer but again going for H1. Then why at all we have EAD.
I understand that if GC is rejected, and if we are on H1, we don't have to leave. But if GC is rejected, I really don't care. Even if I get the GC, I want to go to Mera Bharath Mahaan.
1. What are your thoughts on this?
2. One thing I am still not clear on is: If EAD renewal is delayed next year, and if I don't receive the approval in time (i.e. before the expiry of my current EAD) will I be out of status because no H1 and no EAD?
3. I am thinking there is no waiting period of 180 days etc from the EAD approval date to join another employer. Please correct me if this wrong.
4. If I use EAD, what is the status of my family without H4?

Until now, new inmates booked into the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) prison system had their fingerprints checked only for criminal history information. But now, each new inmate booked into the Huntsville, Texas, intake site will now also have his or her fingerprints checked by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) biometric system for any immigration record.
The TDCJ prison system is the first in the United States to partner with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in this new program, called Secure Communities. This comprehensive program is intended to streamline the process by which ICE determines if the screened inmate is a criminal alien, subject to automatic removal after the inmate completes his or her prison term. Highest priority is given to inmate aliens who have been convicted of crimes such as rape, robbery, murder, kidnapping, and major drug offenses.
Eventually all 24 intake sites in Texas will have the same capability to screen inmates’ immigration history. ICE currently partners with 50 counties and law enforcement agencies across the nation in the Secure Communities program, and looks to expand the program to all law enforcement agencies throughout the United States.
More information about ICE's Secure Communities effort is available at www.ice.gov (http://www.ice.gov). Additional information about TDCJ’s partnership with ICE may be found at: http://www.ice.gov/pi/nr/0905/090519huntsville.htm.

PD: EB2 India - Jun03
I140 approved: Nov 05
I-485 applied: Jun 05
FP1: Jul 05
FP2: May 07
AC21: Job changed twice (Jun 06 and Apr 07). Sent EVL to USCIS both times with 'same job description' but 'different job title'.
This morning I received USCIS email alert for both my wife and I.
My I-485 application got a RFE. "We mailed you a notice requesting additional evidence". Will have to wait for the formal letter for the details. :(
My wife's I-485 application however was transferred to Newark NJ for interview. "This case has been sent for a standard interview." :confused:
I have a ton of questions at this stage. here are few in you gurus can help me while I am waiting for the RFE letter.
1) Will the RFE letter be mailed to me or my attorney ? what has been ur experience? do you get it in one week ?
2) why USCIS has split the processing of my I-485 and my wife's I-485. Her I-485 is transfered to Newark, NJ while mine is pending at TSC (now waiting for RFE response).
3) How much time will I have to respond to the RFE? Based on the new guidelines (http://www.murthy.com/news/n_timrfe.html) , I expect that to be stated in the RFE letter.
thanks in advance.

Gurus,
I have labor pending from a State A, now my employer is asking me to move to State B. However, my employer is willing to keep alive, labor process from State A and is also ready to file new labor from State B. Question is if labor A gets approved and if I apply I-140 on that labor, do I have to reapply I-140 for labor B, once labor B gets approved or I can use the same I-140?
Help is appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
I had a question about the H-1B cap. I am currently in F-1 status in
graduate school and am planning to finish my degree requirements
sometime in March/April 2007 and eventually need to be in H-1B status
to continue to work in the US.
I previously was in the H-1B status from Jan. 2001 till Sep. 2001 (9 months)
for which I was counted towards the FY2001 H-1B cap (more than 6 years ago).
In Sep. 2001, I switched to F-1 status to get a PhD and haven't been
outside the US for more than 4 weeks since then. My question is
will I be subject to the H-1B cap again, and get a new 6-year H-1B
term, if a for-profit employer files an H-1B petition for me for FY2008
?
OR
will I get the remaining 5 years and 3 months from my previous H-1B and
not be counted against the H-1B cap ?
OR
will I get the remaining 5 years and 3 months from my previous H-1B and
also be counted against the H-1B cap ?
By the H-1B cap, I am referring to the numerical annual limit of 65k+20k.
Thanks in advance for any helpful replies.

It's really impossible to answer this without knowing the exact employment relationship that is planned and what the denial said in detail. Presumably your employer has a lawyer who can advise on whether an appeal might be successful. It is very likely that the denial was based on there not being the correct "employer-employee" relationship. CIS issued a new memo on this last month, and there are many threads in this forum on the topic. See here also: Law Office of Elaine Martin - immigration news: consultants (http://martinvisalaw.blogspot.com/search/label/consultants).
Good luck.
