Thanks for replying. Were the I-140s EB2 or EB3? Coz i have seen a LOT of EB2s taking significantly more time than Eb3.
For eg. I filed for labour in Jan and it already got approved thru PERM coz it was EB3. a couple of my friends have filed in EB2 aand have waited significantly longer.

I don't think you are right for first question. AC21 can be invoked if you have applied 485 more than 180 days. Why EAD is related here. You can change the job after 180 days by transferring your H1 to new company. This is the information I have but it is better to verify it from a lawyer.
Can I join new company on my EAD after 180 days of I485 receipt date??
One quick question:
What is AC21 provision: is this a clause or any other application or ????

I sent the following:
1) Confirmation Receipt of application
2) Copy of I 485 receipt
3) Front and back copy of current EAD card
4) A copy of the cut out that the current EAD came in
I don't think you need anything else. If you look at it theoretically I-94 and passport, drivers license has nothing to do with an EAD card approval or denial.

My Lawyer is saying that we cannot apply for AP without a valid reason and a valid paper such as someone is sick or wedding with a proof.
Is this true?
Thanks,
PD Feb 2004 - EB3 - India
I140 Approved - May 2007
EAD Approved - Oct 3
EAD recd Oct 10
H1B Status Valid - 2010.
I had the same concerns on reading the instructions on the I-131 pplication form for the AP.
On page 2:
"Advance parole is an extraordinary measure used sparingly to bring an otherwise inadmissible alien to the United States or a temporary period of time due to a compelling emergency."
And later on page 4 section III B 1 they go on to say:
You may apply if you have an adjustment of status application pending and you seek to travel abroad for emergent personal or bona fide business reasons
However on confirming with my lawyer this is not really enforced by USCIS. You can request an AP without submitting proofs of personal emergency or a bonafide business reason, and USCIS will grant you an AP.
Is this true?

ohguy,
Did you have any RFEs on your 485 application. If yes did your case status change from RFE to Initial Review after transfer to TSC?

I am EB3 (Aug 07) because of my lawyer�s mistake; but in June they asked for further medical testing, it can be a good sign they are looking into EB3.

Yes, you can Travel as long as the H1 Visa Stamping in Un-Expired,
My scneario was i worked for employer A,
Had H1 visa stamping Upto Oct 2006.
Changed employer and H1B transfer with Extension.
Traveled to India returned, While returning Showed the New 797 to the Officer and Got the I-94 for the new date. No problem.
Please carry just in case your new employer employement verification letter and latest paystub. Most of the time it is not necessary but just in case.

Assuming you have very good credit history - you may also consider getting Citibank PremierPass Elite card. It gives you 1 thankyou point for each mile - multiplied by the number of travellers when you book using this card. This is in addition to any airline miles you will earn.
I got $500 of gift cards (staples/sears etc.) and cash checks from encashing the thankyou points (roughly fifty something thousand) from my last India trip. This card has $75 yearly fee - but that is more than compensated by the 20,000 bonus thank you points they give for enrolling in the card.
And if you have a long layover like I had (7 hours) - maybe you could even consider one of those cards which gives you free lounge access. I have Citibank Platinum Amex. These cards require even better credit history than Premierpass Elite. Again - all these cards have yearly fee - but you can get bonus for enrolling which compensates for these. Mine has a $125/yr fee and gave me a bonus of 20,000 thankyou point for enrolling.
I typically go to india every alternate year. My plan is to cancel these cards every year and re-enroll just before I travel.
Hey, what is the cash back rate? 1%, 2%? Is there any limit?

one of the stories posted on the thread about lawyer negligence.
[B]Hi ,
One of my cousin was working for a consultant firm from 5.5years and their company lawyer filed his labor in 2005.Whenever he called his lawyer for status checking,lawyer always replied that his case is pending.When he checked his case status online last week,he came to know that his case was closed.Reason was lawyer did not respond to notices from uscis in october and november 2006.And whenver my cousin emailed his lawyer, lawyer always responded only over phone and not by emails.So can anyone suggest,as to how to go about this case?Does he need to sue his employer or lawyer for misleading?Is this the master trick of employer or lawyer?And now no option for substituted labor too!Can his case be reopened again or will he have to file his labor again?

Can't you get this information unde FOIA (Freedom of Information Act)?

The business analyst you are mentioning is classified as systems analyst in USCIS code. In this case its prefereable to have computers or electrical degree. A civil engineering degree is little difficult to understand
Other than a MBA or MS, what else could be a better qualification for Analysts / Business Analysts??? Why shld they question the need for Masters? I was of the opinion that for a Business Analyst type profile, MBA would be apt / required to perform the duties.... your thoughts?

You should try and get an appointment with his staff. I am also from PA and am willing to come with you to their office if he gives an appointment.
Did anyone else get any emails from their senators/congressmen?

I haven't tried visitor/business visa, but I got a transit visa for Germany once with an expired H1B stamping in passport. I got that visa from German Counsulate in Boston, MA.

Thanks for the reply. Let me explain my case more clearly. Assume that I work at MEIJER/WALMART as 'cashier' in Detroit on H1B and because the store is unable to give enough hours, I find a contingent position in another MEIJER/WALMART as Cashier may be in another city.
When I received my H1B it was issued to MEIJER at its headoffice address and not at a particular facility
Please advice
