    I contributed once in the past for (100 Bucks). I am feeling the pinch lately because of all these I-485 filing expenses ( i know, it does sound like a lame excuse :p ). Rest assured, will be contributing in the future..

    I have personally seen few indian-nationals with US-GCs telecommuting on short-term (arround 30 days) while on vacation in india paid only in usa payroll and paying only USA taxes. The same may be applicable for AOS/AP/EAD.

    I think.
    short term (arround 30 days) - may be ok.
    vacation or telecommuting for longer duration (not sure about max # of days) is considered as abandoning AOS.

    I fully agree with mcq except for duration part.

    Here's how I see it.

    If you are employed by a US company and are on the US payroll of that company, and they are paying your salary into your US bank account, then I would say, that even though you may be working remotely in an Indian office of that US company - then yes, you need the EAD.

    Why - you might ask. Very simply, if you are on the US payroll you need to have an I-9 on file with the company. You can only file an I-9 if you have the legal right to work in the US for that company (EAD / GC / Citizen / H1B etc).

    so what it all boils down to is, no matter where you are working in the world for the company, if you are on the US payroll, you need an I-9, to file the I-9 you need a legal right to work, and that for you means the EAD.

    one other thing. I believe that you also need to be in the US to file for and receive the AP & EAD.

    Hope that helps

    McQ

    Dear IV members,

    I am responsible for collating questions from members and sending them to our immigration attorney. Please follow the process outlined in the following thread:

    http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1267

    - At this time, we do NOT have enough questions to justify a conference call
    - On the average, we require at least 20-25 "non-frivolous" questions to be able to justify our attorney's precious time (Please refer to the USCIS definition of the verbage "non-frivolous")
    - We have had internal discussions on whether the frequency of the calls needs to be changed from bi-weekly(fortnightly) to monthly at this time.

    Next Steps:
    - Please keep sending in your questions to legal_advise@immigrationvoice.org
    - Also see the thread http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/search.php?searchid=24014 wherein, periodic reminders have been posted requesting members to send in questions. Please keep them coming in so that we can have the next conf. call


    FAQs: I hope the following provides some transparency into the process:

    Q. What happens when a question is sent in?
    A. First level filtered non-frivolous questions are responded to with a unique Question ID that helps track the question through its lifecycle until closure. The questions are then compiled and sent to the attorney, who accepts/rejects questions based on relevance. Based on the critical mass, the next conference call date is determined. Setting up a conference call requires mobilization of several resources- dial in number, availability of a moderator, etc. After the call, the recording needs to be made available, and several volunteers work towards making the transcript available in a MS Word/Adobe PDF form. Considering our other work and social commitments, this process takes around 2 weeks at this time.

    Q. How many lawyers are there to answer the questions? Can we have couple of more lawyers on our panel so that we can do this more often?
    A. Sure, but we need more questions coming in. We need a critical mass of non-frivolous questions to be sent in. We have, in the past, requested members to send in questions via the "legal_advise@immigrationvoice.org" route instead of posting them on the forums.

    Q. Who are the people doing all this work?
    A. Coremember "logiclife" has been doing the co-ordination in the past but has been indisposed due to health and work reasons for the next several weeks. I ("sertasheep") have taken over the co-ordination of the question-compilation etc., overseen by waldenpond, stucklabor, vineet among several other IV volunteers during logiclife's hiatus.
    - (I don't want to reveal other names here without knowledge of their IV handles, will do so shortly after I get their IV handles and/or permission)
    - Vineet and/or waldenpond have been helping with the last couple of conf. call moderations due to availability and calendar conflicts.

    Thanks

    sertasheep

    (I've been down with shingles for the past few days, but that shouldn't stop me from collating the questions- so, keep 'em coming, and await announcement of the next conf. call!!)

    :p

    This (the CIR being discussed in the Senate) has happened atleast twice in the past (as per my knowledge) - This is nothing new.

    It hasn't happened, till it's happened!!!

    Quetions to Gurus. I did read in so many forums since long time but did not get a clear understanding around salary.

    1) What is the meaning of "There should not be very huge variance in income levels."
    Does it mean while moving from one job to another (1 time)?
    2) What if the GC is filed 8 years ago and the person is still waiting but got an average of
    10% hike every year. Is that a problem?




    1. A letter from your employer with same or similar job description and title ( check the equivalency list)
    2. Make sure your income is along the lines which is defined in the LCA. There should not be very huge variance in income levels.

    - cheers

    We should have only one focus. Eliminate EB retro first. For that a simple amendment will be, 242K visa is open to both old EB and newly created merit system. That�s all. This amendment will eliminate the retro immediately. All other discussions and efforts are waste of time and energy

    you can re-enter with previous visa stamp with company A's annotation as long as it is still valid..however, you need to have the latest I-797 approval notice from your current employer and show it to the immigration officer at the poe...

    I received my card production ordered email today. All thanks God for making all this possible. I came to the US in Jan 1995 on F1 to begin my undergrad, switched to H1 in 1998, had a GC PD of 2002, and now 14 years and a countless visa's later, I was greened today.

    I would not have made it through this journey without the expert advice on this forum to all the questions I asked - and just seeing everyone's contributions whether +ve or -ve to remind me that I am not in this thing alone.

    For those that are still on the journey - just hang in there and your time surely will come!

    Congrats !!! I think u should party hard for a long time...

    My PD of JAN 27 05 became current with the March bulletin. While folks from TSC got GCs from March 2nd itself, NSC seemed to have little action.

    By some random combination of POJ options, which changed recently, I managed to get a service request in on March 2nd (Type of service requested: -- Outside Normal Processing Times). The same day, I had Infopass and I was told its been "Preadjudicated, under review" and there was some recent movement on my case (transfered internally). This got my spirits up, but in just 2 days, I got a pretty horrible response to my SR, which made me feel this is going to be an uphill battle:



    I was about to contact the state senator today, but early today morning we got our CPO emails.

    My case is pretty straight forward:
    Processing center: NSC
    PD: JAN 27 2005 non perm which got approved just in time for July 07 fiasco.
    I-485: July 07 filer
    RFE in Nov 2008 (immunizations for wife, she had taken certain waivers due to pregnancy --- and Employment verification for myself)
    Approval: Today (March 8th 2010)

    Congrats

    ohguy,

    Did you have any RFEs on your 485 application. If yes did your case status change from RFE to Initial Review after transfer to TSC?

    Guys....

    My wife is on H4, once she gets EAD and applies for SSN does it mean now H4 is canceled and she is on EAD which will require AP for travel and every year renewal.

    She has no plan to work till Jul 08, is it good to apply for SSN?

    EAD comes into effect only if used for employment not for any other purpose.

    This question has bee asked and answered several time.

    My wife wants to move from h1b to h4 status.

    Her H1b has started on Oct 1st 2008, and since then her employeer has not found any project and he is not running any her payroll till now.

    What is the procedure to come back to H4.

    She already has H4 Stamping valid in her passport (until August 2009).

    She does not have H1B Stamping on her passport.

    My H1B status is perfect with all paystubs.

    Her lawyers are suggesting her to go out of country and come back on her H4 Stamping.

    I am afraid if any one would ask her about her H1B Paystubs on her arrival back into USA.

    Would there be any problem in coming back on H4?

    People who filed I-485 after the July fiasco (starting with the August 2007 bulletin) paid a higher initial fee ($1010) - but they don't have to pay any EAD & AP fee - either the first time or for any renewals.

    Look at the "Special instructions" sections of the following URL:

    http://www.uscis.gov/i-485

    so those that didn't pay the new fees when they filed 485 but paid the new fees for renewal of EAD and AP what happens to them? do they also get free renewals?

    I did it successfully in Toronto.
    While entering Canada I showed them my Canadian Immigration papers and told them I will bring my stuff from US in second round. I did not tell Canadian Immigration officer that I came for US visa stamp.
    However You can tell at US consulate that you landed in Canada as Canadian Immigrant and while coming back in US at the border. They won't mind.

    Good Luck!:)
