Your mother must rely on the I-94 and file an extension if she wants to stay more than 3 months. The extension can be filed any time before the I-94 expires.

Now, as the AOS is filed, will it make a difference later on - filing AOS under EB2 would have got him the Green Card ealier?
Similar case. My lawyer told me that we can't apply the second I140 under premium because the original labor is gone with the first I140. So, I could not wait for second I140 and went ahead and filed for 485 under EB3.

I was thinking of local office visits only. If you are from MD, then we can go together to visit the Senators in Baltimore or Hagerstown.
I am from the 6th district and my representative is Roscoe G. Bartlett. He has an office in Frederick and I will try to meet him there.
I have not decided when to visit. May be in a couple of weeks.
I'd be interested, are you planning to do local or DC offices?
I have met with staffers from offices of both MD senators a few times (in their DC offices) and I have been to the DC office of my local Congress woman.
Let me know when you are planning to go.

bfadlia is right ... it was/is pretty straight forward. We did it ourselves too.
Again, Cheap is a relative term
The process is so simple, instructions on the website are clear. There is no need for a lawyer. Most people I know did it themselves successfully. I did it on my own too and I'm about to land soon.
On second thought, you may hire me to help you :)
On second thought: Do you have EAD? :D (just kidding)

Hi,
I am a B. Com, M. Com (1 yr) and CA from India, CPA (USA) with more than 12 yrs exp in accounting industry, including 7 yrs of post qualification (after CA) exp. - But even after all these qualifications, I was suggested by a leading law firm that I will not qualify under EB2 :mad: :mad: !!!!
If the position required a bachelors degree then you have problem !!!! What he (lawyers asst) said that you either need 4 yrs single degree or 3+3 yrs degree to qualify for EB2. He specifically said that 3+2 yrs degrees or 3+1 yrs (as in my case) does not qualify for EB2.
I have not yet filed GC yet though.
Hope this helps.....

If the old company not revoked, you can travel with that old I 797.
If you get an approval from your new employer when u r ome country, better ask your employer to send it to you, so that you will get I-94 with new date on it...
In port of entry they will ask for your H1 Docs and your work location if it is consulting company or client letter, in some cases may be more docs like W2's...

I believe it is a bad thing that the loan from Indian banks does not show up on US credit reports. Also people should disclose what all current loan payments they are making before they can take up a new loan. Otherwise it would be lying.

Her employer is filing her H1 COS petition in premium processing, so I am hopeful it will be adjudicated within 15 days.
One more thing you can do is that file your wife's H4 to H1 in regular processing and any subsequent H1/H4 transfer you would do can be filed in premium and get them approved. I am sure if H4 to H1 COS is filed in regular processing, it will surely take a minimum of 4 to 5 months to be processed.

Took about 2.5 months for me. I would ask for a complete copy of the Alien record.
I would suggest that you ask them to provide you with the result of the FOIA on a CD. CD has no charge.....
thanks man and one more favor
what should I specify underneath
Identify the documents, records, or information you are seeking. Be as specific as possible.
section if I need all the documents submitted with my I-485 application?

Better ask your current employer for extension in August (as your H1 is expiring in Sept last week). But we never know about full time jobs and offer can go either way in last minute. So, keep in loop the current employer. If you won't get full time offer by July end, start process with current employer.

Is it possible to extend H4 status after using EAD for a person whose I-485 pending in derivative status.
I read Cronin Memo reg. dual intent "Revision of March 14, 2000 Dual Intent Memorandum"
It seems to discuss reg. using AP to enter the country and maintaining H status.
Not sure if anyone here has done the extension of H4 after using EAD.
Cronin memo:
Cronin Memo (5-16-00) | Carl Shusterman (http://shusterman.com/h1blvisasmemoworkingadvanceparole.html)
Appreciate any comments reg. this,
There's no 100% clear law/rule on that situation and it's somewhat up to the consulate to decide. In theory, she should have no problem getting an H-4 visa at all. However, that's based on a USCIS position saying that your underlying H-1B work authorization remains valid, even after you travel using a Parole. You're correct, though, that there's always been a logical problem with that CIS position, since your status is technically Parolee. Since the consulates are run by the USDOS, they are allowed to take their own position on that problem, so there's always at least some risk of them causing problems with an H-4 visa application. so it is better to file an H1B amendment and go for H4 stamping.

Hello,
I read this on Oh-law website. I am a bit confused. Isnt it true that H1 is dual intent, why would they consider this as abandonment of 485 when one uses the automatic re-validation rule (no valid H1 stamp but valid I-94 stub on the 797 H1 approval)?
From the Oh-law website:
Those in pending I-485 green card proceedings should understand that travel over the contiguous countries without a valid H or L visa status or without an approved advance parole will result in a deadly consequence of abandonment of pending I-485 applications even if they are readmitted into the U.S. after a short trip to Canada and Mexico with an expired visa in the passport under the foregoing visa revalidation rule. Rule of readmissibility from such trip is one thing and abandonment of pending I-485 is the other. They should never depart from the U.S. without a valid H or L approved status or a valid Advance Parole.

I am currently on H1B, and my current company is not willing to sponsor me for GC. I am in my 5th year. I have found another company who has agreed to hire me and start my gc process, however, I am in a fix. This new offer is in CA and I am currently in NJ (+ my family)
I don't want to take this option unless it is absolutely necessary. My spouse, has the I-140 approved and not yet filed I-485. PD is Jan 04, EB3.
What are my options?
How many months left for you in fifth year? You need atleast 6 months to join another company so that they can do all the necessary steps in those 6 mnths before they file PERM. Are you trying to transfer to consultancy or full time employer?
