Hi
Here is my situation:
Entered US with K1, received I-94 at the time of entry with Employment Authorized stamp, and the CBP officer told me I can work with the I-94 until my status changes to permanent resident.
BUT I-94 is valid only for 90 Days so my permission to work is not valid any longer (That is what the Employer says).
Filed I-485 to Chicago, IL, application was received on July 19/07.
Receipt Notice received August 27/07. Biometrics taken August 30/07, have an Interview on November 29/07.
I called USCIS, they told me I have to apply for an EAD.
Applied for EAD in August. Application was received on August 29/07, the Biometrics Notice Date is September 17/07.
Now I have an absolutely awesome job offer but I don't have a valid Employment Authorization document.
I called USCIS yesterday to ask if I can expedite the process for the EAD, they said go to local immigration office and ask them to see what options you have (she read some options, I didn't write any down because it was a long list).
I went to a local immigration office this morning, they said "We cannot do ANYTHING from our local office in regards to a EAD since September of last year!!!".
They also said to call USCIS and ask them to download the Biometrics from the I485 application to speed up the process.
I called USCIS this morning and they said they are UNABLE to download the Biometrics.
I asked them if there is a way to expedite the process for the EAD, they told me the same thing as yesterday: Go to local office!
Here I am, in this #$#%#^# loop, can't do anything about this and USCIS or the local immigration office does not give a damn about honest people who are trying to make a living and put some food on the table.
I don't know what else to do but if somebody has an idea please, please, please let me know.
By the way, the Immigration officer told me that the employer can hire me if they want, but it is up to the employer to decide!!! I just don't understand how somebody is supposed to hire me if I canno't show any documentation allowing me to work here.
I would also like to know how long it took for any of you who applied for the EAD??
Thank you!

I dont think so..
but you never know..
But my guess is as long as your employer will give you a letter saying they will hire you once your GC is approved, you should be good..as GC is for future employment.

My spouse and I are currently on H1-B and we applied for EAD and I-485 with my spouse as the primary applicant through his company.
Do I have to wait for 180 days before I change employers and start using the EAD (since I am the secondary applicant)? Or can I use my EAD as soon as I get it?
Thank you!

1) I got my first H-1 on 10/01/2006 ( I-29 date). When is the latest I should renew my H-1B visa
Answer: At least three months before your H1 expires.
2) I was a July filer and my wife is already using EAD (business). Does it make sense to renew her H-4 as well
Answer: No.. She is already doing business, which she can not if she goes back on H4. If she is making money then no point going for H4.
3) I was going to apply for AP for my wife? Will I loose my H-1 if I apply AP for myself too
Answer: As the previous member said, both are separate issue, so don't worry and just apply for her AP.
My two cent: You should apply for your EAD and AP as well...

My attorney has asked for the I-485 to be printed:
double sided with Flip to Top option.
Did anyone else do the same?
My lawyer did 'flip to top' aswell.

H1B Renewal Process is Very Simple.
But the Beneficiary cannot do it on his own.
It has to be done by your Employer since on I-129
he has to Provide lot of confidential Information about the company
like Turn Over and Income of the company.
Most Employers have a contract with the Attornies and Prefer to
go through them instead of doing the Paper work themselves.
BUT it is very easy.

Hi,
My 6 year H1B ends on April 17/2011 with Company A. Company A applied for my PERM on 15th Jan 2010.

Please respond with your suggestions.

I jst got an update on my and my wife I-485; i am not sure what it is about as i have not received the RFE yet.....but i think they are asking for our BC as we did not provide them when we applied for I-485;
I want to know that is it OK if i provide USCIS with the 2 AFFIDEVITS, one for me and one for my wife stating all the information such as Name, Date of Birth, City of Birth, Country of Birth, Mothers Name and Fathers Name.
Gettign the birth certificate is a very long procedure and i dont think i would have them soon. So i was wondering will it be OK if i provide them with the Affidevits. Will USCIS accept it!!!!
Lastly, i would appreciate if some one can give me the template that what text should be included in the affedevit !!!!
Thanks in advance !!!!!

Gurus,
My contract pre-maturly ended on Sep 27, 2008. I was on hourly rate on W2. So far I haven't find any assignment. I don't get paid.
Am I eligible for unemployment benefits. Has anyone claimed this. Are there any future disadvantages if you show unemployment.
Please let me know
Thanks and Regards
I am not sure about contracting positions, but if you were a full-time employee of a company and are laid-off, then you are eligible to claim unemployment benefits, which is true for GC holders, too.

Go to www.ehealthinsurance.com , you can get quotes from some of the good insurance companies. You can apply for insurance without any pay obligation upfront. These prices are affordable. A small tip is that its better to shop individual plan than family plans as the family plans are expensive. Also the insurance is expensive for women compared to men. I would suggest you to go for smaller deductibles and no co-insurance. You could get a good insurance for 150 dollars per month. Let me know if you need more info on this.

Hello All,
My priority date becomes current as of 1'st Oct 2009... I had created an Service Request 2 weeks back to check with NSC if it has been preadjudicated or not...
Here is what i received as an email response to the Service Request today-
The status of this service request is:
The processing of your case has been delayed. A check of our records establishes that your case is not yet ready for decision, as the required investigation into your background remains open.
Until the background investigation is completed, we cannot move forward on your case. These background checks are required to be completed on all applicants who apply for the immigration benefit you are seeking. We will make every effort to make a decision on this case as soon as the background checks are complete. If you do not receive a decision or other notice of action from us within 6 months of this letter, please contact us by calling our customer service number provided below.
Questions:
1. What am i supposed to do now?
2. I remember seeing a Memo back in Feb 2008 which stated that 485 can be approved after waiting for 6 months for background check and not more than that.
Please let me know if anyone else has received a similar reply in Sep 2009... Any thoughts are highly appreciated...
Thanks for all your help... These forums and community has been a great help all along!

Silicon Valley Immigration Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
A quick review of the list of largest H-1B (http://www.geelaw.com/lawyer-attorney-1054805.html)users for FY 2009 shows high tech and Silicon Valley topping the list. The top users of the H-1B program for 2009 included multi-national technology companies headquartered, and with branch offices in Silicon Valley. Wipro tops the list with 1,964 new H-1B visas. Microsoft is second with 1318, but then Intel Corp has a big drop off at 723 H-1B's The list of Silicon Valley companies continues, including Infosys Technologies (440), Qualcomm (320), Cisco (308), Oracle (272), Google (211), Yahoo (183), Apple (168), Nvidia (130), and Hewlett Packard (115). While there is no way to know whether these companies sponsored employees located in Silicon Valley, as opposed to another office location, it is clear that high-tech and Silicon Valley are standouts on the list of H-1B employers.
Those who assume the H-1B is a tool used primarily by IT companies may be surprised to see the number of prestigious universities and medical facilities also nearing the top of the list. H-1B visas are work visas for professional workers who typically require at least a Bachelor's degree for entry into their profession. This includes teachers, professors, doctors, and scientists in addition to engineers.
The first two pages of the list are below:
