As far as I remember , there was an FAQ somewhere in USCIS website that mentioned that they will not ask for 2nd FP again. I may be wrong but I think I had seen it somewhere and this also discussed in some thread on this site.

Did you apply AP with your EAD ? is it a DUAL card (EAD and AP) ?
Just asking..I still did not get my EAD which was applied in july-2007 last year. I am planning to apply for AP renewal this month as I have apporved AP.

I guess it is an approval. In the cases where officer needs an approval from senior officer they issue N-652. That is standard practice.
Thanks number30
Any idea how much time do they generally take to decide on N652.
Thanks again

1. Can I travel and enter on my H1 even if my AP is approved/pending?
Yes, you can travel and enter into USA on your H1 visa even if your AP is approved or pending as long as your visa has a valid stamping.
2. Is it safer to travel on AP even if I have a valid/invalid H1 stamped on my passport?
If you have an invalid H1 stamping on your passport, then AP is the only way to enter into USA. On the other hand, If you have a valid stamping and also have an approved AP, you can use either H1 or AP to enter into USA.
3. Can my wife enter on H4 and then we add her name to 485 when she is in US?
If you have a valid H1 Visa, your wife can enter on H4. Regarding adding your wife's name to your 485 case, I am not sure, but I believe you have to wait until your PD becomes current.
Consulting an attorney is the best option, I believe. Good luck!

1) Allowing filing of EAD only 120 days before its expiry when the processing times by itself is >120 days
2) Issuing a FAQ on interim EAD in 2008 when the process itself was eliminated in 2006.
3) Issuing separate biometrics notices for EAD and I-485 for the same beneficiary.
4) Allowing the beneficiary to work on H1 receipt notice but not on EAD receipt notice.
5) Running multiple background checks for the same beneficiary for different immigration benefits (I-140, EAD, AP, I-485)
6) Issuing RFE for EAD biometrics even after completing biometrics.
7) Issuing RFE for EAD biometrics without issuing biometrics notice.
8) Issuing EAD/AP’s with incorrect name, sex, DOB, photograph and validity dates thereby preventing the beneficiary from working/traveling without any alternative until the correction is made.
9) Requesting an EAD expedite letter even after 90 days in spite of the obligation to approve EAD within 90 days.
10) Requesting a wait time of 30 days to act on EAD expedite request even after 90 days thereby making the total wait time to 120 days (90 days +30 days) which by the way equals the time allowed to file EAD before its expiry.
11) CSR’s providing conflicting answers to the same question.
12) Backward movement of processing times instead of forward movement.
13) Blindly approving petitions on raising mandamus law suits without providing a reason for the delay.
14) Not sending the EAD physical cards on time even after the change in online status to CPO.
15) IO’s at POE interpreting the usage of AP in different ways.
16) Denying non-immigrant petitions like H1 on flimsy grounds such as not having a direct client and approving I-140 immigrant petition for the same beneficiary/employer.
17) Issuing EAD/AP combined document and then issuing a memo that it’s invalid for travel.
18) Allowing the beneficiary to work without employment authorization for 180 days (Section 245(k)) but going after the employer for engaging in such unauthorized employment.
19) Requesting the EAD beneficiary to take an infopass appointment after 90 days without providing a provision to book an appointment when no slots are available.
20) Last but not the least, wasted visa numbers and growing backlog with increased fees.
Sounds like our desi babus are better than these potato heads. God Bless America.

Since you got your H1B approved, it is risky to take another chance with lottery. With the approved H1B you can transfer it. In the meantime from this time till October you can get your OPT extended but you have do it within 30 days of receiving your H1 notice. Dont worry, you are not out of status. Look out for a job now.

Same question to you my friend. Did you renewed your H1B with the old employer or you filed with a new employer this time?
In my case, it was same employer.

CORBA, is a Federal Government law to save individuals who loose job. Every insurance company should provide you this insurance for about 6 months (not sure about the length and price) at the Employer negotiated price. You should get a notification from your current insurance company each time you change your employer.
Then its upto you to take it for that limited time before you get your next job. What happens if we dont take the insurance in between? Next time you take insurance, if they find that u dont have insurance for some time, then they will not cover any pre existing conditions and they might ask you to take some tests. Its all headache.
But its worth finding out more details rather than ignoring it.

Can I join new company on my EAD after 180 days of I485 receipt date?? Yes you can join new company using your EAD after 180 days.
One quick question:
What is AC21 provision: is this a clause or any other application or ???? This is a clause.
These are my opinion. It is better to consult with your lawyer.

I do not understand what the need is to change to F1. One can do Masters while on H4. If you are thinking she needs OPT to work after Masters, It is a 2 year course, right?. You can decide after 1-1/2 yrs if you want her to move to F1.

Filing the application to port as seperate after the 140 is approved assures the attorney & the employer of of 2 things:
1. The attorney gets more money for filing a seperate application.
2. The employer gets to keep you tied down longer since its likely that the USCIS wont know what to do when a seperate application is filed just to port the date. Its not a documented procedure (that I am aware of) in that you have to file Form I-xxx or whatever.
Best to port the PD at the time of filing the 140.
Disclaimer: I am EB3 and I havent tried porting my date to EB2. Just using my basic common sense.
Crazyghoda,
I am still waiting for my PERM but i had talked to my attorney regarding porting of my old priority date he says i will have to wait till i get my new I-140 approved. I am not sure how should i convince him to file I-140 and priority porting application together once i get my PERM approval. I need some strong documentation to support my statement if he denies doing both together. I tried googling but yet to find some document related to this.
Thank you.

The funny part is that I did use premium process and still took them 4 months...apparently they had made a mistake and process it as non premium and still took the extra $1,000... Im not sure if I am having bad luck or what else to think.
So I emailed Immigration and asked them about the 1 day H1b visa hoping they would tell me they made a mistake, but their answer was that it was not a mistake, that in fact they gave me 4 months and 1 day. But how did they give me 4 months and 1 day? I couldnt work during the 4 months I spent waiting for their answer, how is that the same thing? I know there is a mistake somewhere along the road, but I dont know how to address and/or what my possibilities are...
Also, along with my bad luck PERM was denied a couple of weeks ago because it was not signed by me. The PERM got audited while I was out of the country last year so my lawyer at the time sent a revised copy of it but I couldnt sign it because I wasnt in the country, (this was all explained in a letter we sent along with the package). I sent an appeal a couple of weeks ago and now Im waiting to hear from them.
My case has become very complicated! Any suggestions?
