What annoys me, is that the consulate delays the visa stamping and also keeps the passport. Seems to me that they deliberately keep the passport so that the candidate doesnt travel back on the AP. I was in similar situation in March 08 at the Mumbai consulate, after waiting for around 45 days I travelled back on the AP(back then they had not taken my passport)

Hi all IV gurus,
My wife and I filed our I-485, EAD and AP on July 12th and the package arrived in NSC on July 13th. We have received all receipts and finished our FP about 10 days ago. I checked the online status and there are NO LUDs on any of our applications. All of them still show the ND of August 15th. I am EB3 ROW with PD Jan07. My I-140 is still pending at NSC.
My wife is currently on H-4 and she would like to work. Is she able to apply for a temporary EAD on October 15th, since it will already be 90 days since RD? If yes, how do we go about doing that?
Your experience and advice are very much appreciated!
Thanks!

My attorney signed my I-485 AOS/EAD/AP applications and posted them on July 2nd as he was in a hurry to apply because of July 2nd scenario. Is it ok for the attorney to sign our papers. Is anybody in the same boat as me. I am a little concerned as the USCIS FAQ says application can be rejected if signature is missing. The application reached USCIS on July 3rd.
My attorney also did the same. I did not sign on my application. But he sent me power of attorney to sign. They did this since they were beating the July 2 brouhaha which previous to that week, they already knew what's going to happen.

Why should USCIS send two notices? To answer your question..NO..they will send you one date and location for FP! Also you have to do your FP every 15 months or so..if your case isnt approved by then!

I hope you have good lawyer on your case
We had a similar situation
My wifes app got separated from mine
since we had used a single check- my app was returned (the fees was double the amount!!!)
After a painful one and a half month my wifes application finally showed up- and got rejected (no fees) and we then refiled.
But the interesting thing was that during this 90 days period- my lawyer had someone at USCIS try to trace the missing application.
and he used to exchange emails with the supervisor's office on this
Is his PD current ?
If yes- then you should be fine.
If not- then it gets kinda tricky- though not too much
You have to prove that your app was lost and you are reconstructing the case
Keep in mind that that you will probably have to withdraw your app and refile with him
And that sooner or later- your husband's original app is going to show up
And at that time - you will have two active apps- but nothing that cant be sorted out...

Hello,
My spouse will be in India next week and would be going for her H1B stamping at the Mumbai consulate. She came here on H4 and we applied for her H1B, effective 10/2007, and she has been working since Jan08 and have all her paystubs from that date. Can you share your experience in terms of questions they ask and supporting documents they request in addition to the documents that we are required to carry.
Your reply would be appreciated
Mainly they ask for W2 , tax returns for all years, she was on h1. And you can also send your tax returns for all the other years she was on h4.

Thanks for your reply. Nah,I didn't because I have read some where that post office doesn't forwarded the mails related to USCIS so I informed the tenants about the mail.
Who told you that? Is there any official guideline?

The easiest solution would be going to MataMoros, Mexico for stamping. This is the best option for us. Easy, affordable, and takes only 1 day. India, you need to answer several questions, interview to be attended, and ofcourse, they treat everybody as though the person requesting for visa is a criminal.
I went to mexico couple of days back, and it was done easily

I live/work in california - and on the I-485 form it says the address is :
USCIS Nebraska Service Center
P.O. Box 87485
Lincoln, NE 68501-7485
but it also says in the first few lines in the form:
If you live in one of these states or territories, please read this notice to determine your filing location:
ALASKA, CALIFORNIA, IDAHO, IOWA, KANSAS, MARYLAND, MISSOURI, MONTANA, NEBRASKA, NEW MEXICO,OKLAHOMA, OREGON, TEXAS, AND WASHINGTON
AS PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED AND REMAINS IN EFFECT - EFFECTIVE DECEMBER 1, 2004DIRECT MAIL INSTRUCTIONS FOR PERSONS FILING FORM I-485
Also if I use fedex then it cant deliver to the PO Box..I am really confused..
If its possible to file at a local USCIS center its better because it can reach there faster- maybe even today?
Can someone please advise? Apologies if this has been covered already.

well that is what I am saying.
The job says it needs a person with Bachelors degree with 5 year of experience in servers and also 3 years of experience in network security.
I met those both criteria before I joined the job.
Now the question arises, which one I fall under ? EB2 or EB3 ??
:confused:
The HR/Lawyer has to decide the category, you can't. The job category is based on what the job requires, not what you have. If you have 20 years of experience but the job requires just BS, it falls into EB3. Good luck.

Don't worry, the same thing happenned with my wife (labor approval lost in mail) and it took her 3 months for 140 approval. For me, everything was fine and it took 6 months for 140 approval - isn't USCIS the best part of the American experience?:mad:

I actually did get a H-1B extension once based on the fact that the spouse (also H-1B) had an approved I-140 priority date that was backlogged. It was an unusual approval, and surprised the other attorneys (including partners) where I was working. It's not guaranteed, but worth a try if there is no other option to work.
wow! thank you - this is really helpful.
My spouse is still on h1b and we will definitely try for this. Do you think the extension would be affected by the priority date (higher chances of approval if severely retrogressed) - or if theres something like a memo/ruling/logic for the approval, or is it just random chance?
Also in case the motion is declined, does it lead to a future (negative) impact on either a fresh h1b filing, or green card application or such?
Thank you!

My husband's employer filed for green card under EB-1 (OR). I-140 got approved, I-485 is pending. I already did my fingerprinting. My husband's is scheduled for next week. We did not get EAD or AP yet.
Meanwhile I need to travel to Europe on business. I have a valid H-1 to re-enter US. Would my AP get approved before I return to US? If so, can I still enter with my valid H-1? My husband is planning to delay his biometrics until I get back. Are there any problems with this plan? Please advise
