I contacted University Y, but they said they don't keep I-20 copies that are 7 years old.
But you're saying that if I contact SEVIS, they should be able to give me a copy of my University Y I-20?

Is this something to be concerned about, getting AP before EAD , both are of course 124 days since receipt date.
I don't know. It is just puzzling that some people got both while others only got one. What is the basis for approving AP?

Hello All,
I am on 7th year of my H1 and my I-140 is pending. Since my current H1 is about to expire, I need to file for my 8th year of H1 extension. Do you think there could be some problem in getting my 8th year extension since my labor is approved and I-140 is pending. The way I interpreted the extension rule is that you can only get the extension if your labor is pending for more than 1 year but in my case my labor is approved and I-140 is pending.And I cannot wait for I-140 approval since my current H1 is about to expire.
Please advise.
Thanks
No ..There would be no problem...
In fact tell the lawyer to attach the 140 application receipt to the H1 extension and ask for a 3 year extension..at least 1 year they got to give...

Kumar,
It should come with in a week. It all depends on whether you filed your I-485 through attorney or not. For me they send it on 08/29/08. My attorneys informed me on 09/04/2008.
Hope that helps
Well - not really.
I was issued on 20th, Aug. but neither me nor my attorney got no clue. some received it within a week but some like me - 2 weeks passed already but still waiting. hope you will get yours soon. please share here when you do so.

For the experts on this board, my H1 expires on 9/30/07. Should I wait till after Aug. 17 to qualify for a 3-year extension?

Please see the update in Oh law's site
Under the update July 2007 VB, visa number was unable for the entire July 2007. It remained such until July 17, 2007 when both DOS and USCIS reversed their positions. There could be some 104(c) H-1B three-year extension petitions filed in July bore the 17th. Since the July 2007 VB has been reversed and remains "current" in July, it will remain a challenging issue for these filers. Those who file after July 17, 2007 and before August 1, 2007 may not be entitled to the benefit of 104(c) extension. Accordingly, those who need three-year extension under 104(c) should not file the H-1B extension until after August 1, 2007 to obtain three year extension, even though they will have to pay the increased filing of $320 rather than the current $190. In August, the EB visa number will remain "unavailable" for the entire EB classifications, presenting the best opportunity to file such 104(c) three-year increment H-1B extension petition. What a twist and irony of the development of events?

USCIS and DOS played ping pong on us.
USCIS played June Fool.
We are panned.
I told my wife that I will get her EAD in 3 months. Now what I should I say. I am insulted embarassed.
I planned to leave my company in 6 months. Now again I am struck.
I decided to marry a girl just because the dates are current. Now I am struck.
Oh USCIS(GOD)!!, Why did you do this me?
You decided to marry a girl because your PD was current, married her and promised her you would get her an EAD in 3 months...and you did all this in 2 weeks ???
Man! You are fast!

Hi Leoindiano:
What is meant by Pre-Adjudication and how do we know that, our case is Pre-Adjudicated. Sorry to ask you this qn. specifically, as I amnot seeing any LUDs on my case, and my para-legal says, dont worry.
my case details are PD10/05 EB2 I, RD 07/02/07 and ND 08/30/07 at TSC.
Can you enlighten us little bit more.
preadjudication is where USCIS processes your case even when visa numbers are not going to be available: meaning ur PD is not current, they know even if all is well they wont be able to approve, but still they go over everything, issue an RFE is something is not ok etc. If all is well, the case goes into a pre-adjudicated stack, and once visa numbers are available, they simply pick up a file from that stack, assign it a visa and mark it approved. This is how lots of people got approvals last year in july VB.
pre-adjudication has three advantages compared to starting to process only when teh PD is current:
- If they wait for PD to be current to pick up a file and start looking at it, there is no way they can process so many cases when the PD does go current, or when dates move significantly towards the end of the year. This is how they processed nearly 60k cases in 2 months last year.
- if PD is current for a short period (1month or 2) and thats when they pick up your case, if you get a NOID you could end up missing the window by the time you respond and they pick up your response.
- its helpful for them because they can weed out cases that are not going to be approved, earlier and they dont end up giving interim benefits to those people.
ur status does not change when your case is pre-adjudicated.

As far as i know PF is controlled by the central government, TCS will not have any say in you withdrawing your money. Generally there is an upto 15% match from the company in your account, and that is yours the moment it is deposited in your account. You should not have any problems withdrawing your money. Your money is yours. Some companies deposit PF monies quarterly, small companies deposit it annually, in those cases you might be screwed if you company did not deposit the money in your account.
Has anyone managed to withdraw money from TCS PF from Mumbai India?
If so, pls advise on the procedure for the same?

My wife received her green card on Friday so I think it is the latest info.
It comes by priority mail (in priority mail envelop), but no signature is required. No white envelop as old timers are suggesting.
Also the USCIS is extremely fast now a days. My wife received her green card in 5 days after finger printing (Finger printing on May 6; approval on May 9th; Green card received on May 13th) so when your dates become current and your case is straight forward you should have it in few days.

First Step: Filter out applications based on priority date eligible as per the visa bulletin date.
Second Step: Process based on receipt date within the applications filtered out in the first step.

I am a dentist in state of CA,and filed for EB2 green card.In April 2006 applied for my PERM from MD Dental, a dental group with 5 offices and about 30 employs and owned by 2 partners.Also in April 2006 they applied for my H1b visa.Further PERM and H1b both were approved and in may 2006 I filed for I-140 from the same company.I-140 had a RFE but was approved in Feb 2007.Meanwhile in Oct 2006 both partners had a is understanding and they split the company into 2 companies with one partner getting 2 offices and the other partner getting 3 offices.Originally my perm was filed from the MD dental Van-Nuys office, which was given to partner A who then told me to file for a new H1b as tax ID number for the employer has changed but my job location would not change. I filed for a new H1 visa from partner A which was also approved and started to work for him till Feb 2007.
In feb 2007 I found a new job again as a dentist with a different company and moved to that company.I am still in good contact with both partner A and partner B of the old company.
My question is if I could file for I485 from MD dental which is already split with
approved I140, or I could file it from partner A or partner B`s new company showing either of them as succesor of interest.Also can I invoke AC21 in 6 months and move to my current employer.
Please advice.
May be you need to amend I-140. Please consult a good attorney/lawyer.
Not a legal advice.

Thanks for that, it makes perfect sense - I was leaning towards new anyway as there were no deals to be had.
