Lawyers suggest renewing H1B as a backup in case 485 is denied. Having one more 140 or 485 is better than that. If he was going to get 2 GCs I would call it greediness, but one person is going to get only one GC and it doesnt howmany applications one person files. Moreover, people who file two applications are paying twice the money which will be used USCIS to increase capactiy. How about that?

Thank you. The lawyer is in Missouri. I will try to ask the documentation back.
In the US, attorney ethics rules vary somewhat from state to state. In most states, you are clearly entitled to all substantive materials contained in your case file. Unless the retainer/fee agreement clearly obligates you to pay for copying costs in this circumstance, the law firm should give you the documents you want without charge.

I got my passport renewed in 2005 as my old one was expiring. I had to send my original passport to the Consulate. They sent the new passport with the old one attached to it.

Unless the dependent is going to have his 140 filed under EB1 I am not sure it would help.
But to answer your question, I think it is ok to file. Check with your attorney before you do that though

Hi,
Couple of my colleagues from 10 Aug filing in TSC got 140 approval last week, same is the case with a few from Nebraska as well, I am still stuck waiting for my I 140 even though I filed ahead of others.

Does anyone know if the B1 visa can be extended in US? The visa stamp on the passport is for 6months. when entered US, the officer granted 5.5 months of stay.......
I am thinking I simply appy for B1 extension 30 days before I-94 expiry date and the actual visa stamp on the visa does not matter.....is it true
Thanks for your time!!
Yes you can extend your B1, but you must have a very good reason for your extension request. And you may be questioned next time you come into the country. I have a friend that was questioned on a returning trip to the US

Hi Vinod,
As a practical matter, you probably want to file your wife's I-485 application as soon as possible after the first day of the month in which your PD becomes current. As you know from experience, PD's can and do retrogress dramatically with little or no notice.
If your wife is in H4 status on the date that your GC is approve, she will automatically fall out of status. She can remain out of status for up to 180 days without losing eligibility to file for AOS, but if the PD retrogresses before she files, she has to wait and hope that your PD becomes current before 180 days have passed.
If your wife changes status to E-3 she can still file her I-485 when your PD becomes current. But,
E-3 status, unlike H-1 status, requires non-immigrant intent. So, theoretically, if your wife changes to E-3 status and then files the I-485 within 60 days, an allegation of immigration fraud could be made and possibly result in denial of her I-485.

My wife is primary applicant for 485. We both are continuing on H1 and have EADs. Our Son came as my dependent.
Our company is brought by another company and countdown has started for our group. Looking at present market conditions I may have to use EAD. Will try to transfer H1 but just in case ...

check your passport validity and then cross the border if you are near to Mexico and return back on the same day. I did once without any issue. This is quickest and safest way to extend your I94. If you apply for i94 extension it will take another 4 to 5 months.

Hi, this is my first time in the forum and I wish to seek advice on my situation.
I'm a green card holder (singapore citizen) who got married while being a US PR. I wish to apply for my wife (singapore citizen) a green card.
How long is the typical wait?
See visa bulletin. Your case is Family Based (FB) 2A. Currently, it is at 01APR06 (i.e., the applications that USCIS received before 04/01/2006 are eligible to be approved). You need to study how quickly the dates move by going through VISA bulletins in the last 3-4 years, but my guess would be about 5 years.
Visa Bulletin for March 2010 (http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_4659.html)
while applying, is it true that my wife can't enter the US?
AFAIK, not on the basis of her GC application, but if she gets another (dual-intent) VISA, say H1B, then she can enter US.
I kind of know the answers but would like to confirm with this forum. I know the situation can be pretty bleak.
Many many thanks,
After 5 years of being PR, you can become US Citizen. After you have become a US citizen, your wife's GC application will no longer be subject to a quota and she should get GC within a few months (processing time).

Friends:
Two weeks ago I received an RFE for my E-Filed I-131 Advance Parole.
They requested two passport-style Photos but didn't mention where to send the RFE response.
However, on the top right-corner (next to the US Dept. Homeland security Logo) on the RFE page, there is an address (P.O Box 852381 Mesquite, Texas 75185-2381).
Underneath of the Director signature it has Officer # 159.
I'm really confused
1. Which address to send the RFE response?
2. Attention to what??? (Should I put Attn: to this officer # 159)
Please guide me ASAP...
hello,
I got a ref for E filed EAD too , but they sent a yellow sheet which had address on that
and specifically said to keep that sheet on top when i send the photos.
the address you mentioned is what i sent my ref to .
Hope this helps
Thanks

Dear Friends,
This week, Tom Tancredo's Presidential Campaign released a new anti-immigration campaign ad, linking "Islamic terrorists" to immigration. The ad received national coverage, with Tancredo making appearances on CNN & Fox News. Here's what the press had to say:
"You can't deny that this is the politics of fear" - Fox News
"New Tancredo ad a sad case of fear-mongering" - Denver Post
"Tancredo ad plays fear card" - USA Today
Tancredo's Presidential Campaign plans to run the ad in Iowa. His demagoguery will not get him votes, but it will spread fear and misinformation that hurts the prospects of reform for all immigrants. That's why we need to make sure his ad doesn't make it to Iowa.
Go to: http://www.immigrantslist.org/tancredo
We're not going to stop the ad by attacking Tancredo, but we can ask local network affiliates in Iowa not to run it. Sign the petition now at http://www.immigrantslist.org/tancredo .
After you sign the petition, forward this to your friends & family. We need to get 1,000 signatures on the petition now!
Thank you for all that you're doing,
Drew Seman

Does anyone know if we need any special visa for working in Canada if you have a US GC?
One of my relative did work in Vancouver, Canada with his GC. He got his work permit at Canadian port of entry. Anyway this was long back, so please do your research, rules might have changed since then.
