Please ...let us agree on this ...will get an EAD even if i-140 is pending while 485 is filed correct??
This is not a democracy or an American Idol show where it matters what most people think!
There is a law that clearly states it - you can file and are eligible to interim AOS benefits such as AP & EAD even when the I-140 is pending. I have colleagues (who applied 140 & 485 concurrently) get their EADs and APs long before they got AOS approva.
It's a different thing, not not to be confused with, that most people choose to continue with their H1 and not use EAD or AP because of the uncertainty until the 140 and 485 is approved.

For all those who commented in negative.
1. Its posted in Interesting topics section. GC, E2/E3 predictions,H1B extension etc is not the only thing left in life.
2. Spelling is a logical/creative thing. Its not cramming words from dictionary. Its an art too. Ever heard of phonetics.
have a nice day.
Are you quite sure it is a logical creative thing ? There are a lot of words which are pronounced quite differently from the way they are spelled ... unless you know the word ( by cramming ) you would not be able to spell it.
Your point 1 has nothing to do with this topic. Was it ever said that GC is the only thing in life by anyone ?
Obviously this is hard work but to what end. How is knowing the spelling of every word in the planet going to help her or anyone for that matter.
Better be a good writer who writes on interesting topics , stories or novels than to be the proof reader for the writer. Who do you think would have a good career - the writer or the proof reader.
Learning how to spell would have taken thousands and thousands of hours . Wouldn't that time be better spent in learning maths or science or arts or a musical instrument or sports or anything that will help her in the future or be personally gratifying for life. I am not sure she will remember half the words 10 years from now just like a engineer doing java programming for 10-15 years would practically remember nothing he learned in college.

Simple math can easily prove most EB3s will NOT get the GCs even in 20 years......
Maintaining long lines is a way to discourage more people from trying or aspiring. Do you think government should be trying at these economic times to do something, not to have long lines, so that more people can try to come in?

Ok. One more red rep with the following comment
"too many generalizations... just because you didn't want to buy, doesn't mean it is not right for everyone"
People make their own purchasing decisions based on their comfort. On forums, you just need to read and follow your own gut.
Also, there is a talk that when US dollar currency weakens considerably from the current levels, foreigners may be interested in owning real estate in US.
Also, US being a tourist destination for many countries Hotel sector may start booming.
However, if foreigners want to purchase, US must make considerable changes to their immigration policies to invite.
There are way too many problems infront of Fed Chairman.
1) Asking people not to walk out of homes and pay up their loans
2) Making the wall street firms like Lehmen, bear sterns run their businesses as usual.
3) Contain the inflation so that long term interest rates are lowered.
4) Come out clean if the US policy is shifting towards Weak dollar or going back to string dollar policy. Either way US and world over have to face gyrations in near term.
There is blood on everybody's hands for the mess we are in.
1) Japan for too long provided the world with cheap loans (~1%).
This money not only found its way to corprate India but also into US
Housing markets.
2) Americans spent money much much more they earn or worthy off.
3) Globalization created another affect (Read Alan greenspan's 'economic conundrum' theory). Google it, you will find plenty of articles.
4) China for too long manipulated their currency and provided the world cheap goods.
5) Oil exporting countries didn't utilize the profits in developing their countries and economies. Instead they started buying aasets all over the world causing unsustainable price levels in asets.
6) Indian software industry far too long booked profits without developing/diversifying into enterprise strength products and remained fixated on their business models. Software sector is staring clueless and is unprepared for the fallout of outsourcing industry. Pink Slip culture is on the rise.
How do we come out of this financial mess in US?
There is no easy solution.
10,000 people buying homes will not help this economy. On contrary, 10,000 people not buying homes will help.

Wikipedia_fan,
The AC21 law was enacted to help you from exactly the same situation and you have absolutely nothing to worry about.
But as well know how USCIS works, the BAD case scenario would be that you'll get an RFE after your I-140 is revoked and at that time, you'll need to provide some proof of your employment in the same or similar field along with a copy of the AC21 text.
The WORST case scenario would be that you'll get a NOID from an ignorant officer, and in that case as well, you'll have to reply with same documents and you'll get approved.
Mark my words : Your I-485 will get approved ultimately(unless you have comitted some kind of fraud )
About the employer, I think he's right that any I-140 which has a pending I-485 associated with it , is counted towards the ability to pay and it affects the future I-140s from the same employer.
Cheers

There could be some truth in that. Last month a friend of mine returned from India with AP and he said most of the questions they asked were about the current employer. They had asked stuff like do you still work for this same employer, what do you do? how finacially stable are they etc.
My friend still works for the same employer so I don't know what would happen if you answer No to that question.
Did you or someone you know experience such questions at POE for an advanced parole? Or are you just posing a hypothetical?
I have recently re-entered on AP and not a single question was asked. Not only that, I was not fingerprinted or photographed at the counter like a visa holder would be. I was taken to the back office where an agent entered information from my AP into the computer, stamped the AP and gave it back to me. No questions asked. Period. This was at the JFK airport in NY.
Parole is meant to grant entry to resume adjustment of status. Parole is not subject to employment, it is subject to a pending I-485.
If this is a hypothetical from you, then please shake these imaginations and live in peace and enjoy EAD and AP.
Too much thinking and too much analysis has caused this community to revert back to H1 lifestyle and they are not using EAD and AP - ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS why we were all so happy due to 485 filing.
What is the point of having an early 485 filed, if you are not going to use EAD and AP and be at mercy of consulates for restamping and be at mercy of employers who will need to sponsor you to hire you?

In Maryland, they didnt ask for any document when I took my about to be expired DL to the MVA (Motor vehicles Admin) last year. The guy said as long as you have $30, we would renew your expired license!
However, getting a new DL for my wife was a nightmare. We had to schedule an
appointment through a phone line which worked only two or three days in a month! After many tries, we gave up!

Please! do let me know if you find any insurance company offering a million dollar whole life insurance for $100 a month!! :eek::eek::eek:
As someone said, you really need good luck finding one!
I never said whole life,term could cost around $100/m if your health is reasonably good at 60's not for heart disease or kidney transplant patience.
If you are not aware you could pass on your term life insurance proceedings to your heir
one of my family member have whole life for $81/month for $1m at the age of 28 in NJ, in this plan we will get back everything we paid after 30 years.

Hi,
After multiple requests to my employer, i finally was able to get a scanned copy of my I-140 approval notice. It's just the approval notice and not the original I-140.
My questions is, is that enough to port my PD in case i want to change my job and switch the company??
How can just copy of 140 approval enough. In order to port I think you need job title and description...

So what is the general feeling about the Original GC sponsoring Job, Should we continue the Primary Job and Start a company on the sides. In my case
1. I am not on H1B anymore
2. I am already using my EAD with my GC sponsoring employer.
3. My Employer is ok if i leave the company ( i have been with them for 6-7 yrs now and they have made enough from me...fair enough i think)
4. My employer will not revoke the I-140 for sure.
5. My client is ok to work with me if i start my own company.
All the above points make me inclined towards starting a company and work for it, Do you think it is not advisable to change the employer specially in the case when you are starting your own company..

- Labor was filed with a minimum requirement as Masters degree. No alternate degree requirement or equivalency was mentioned. --> just found out that it did say BS+ 5 exp is ok - USCIS mistakenly approved the I-140 (I am assuming OP does not have a US Masters and only has masters equivalent or BS + 5 yrs)
- Sponsoring employer revoked approved I-140
- USCIS checked the I-140 and realized it made a mistake in initial I-140 approval
- USCIS denied the pending I-485 based on incorrect I-140 approval
If all of the above is correct, then I doubt if anything can be done. I dont see any grounds to file MTR based on the fact that beneficiary does not have a US Masters degree which is the requirement as indicated in LC filing. I dont think you can do anything with respect to USCIS's mistake in approving I-140 earlier and now denying it. Got to wait and see what the attorney's view is in this regard.
**********
Since the application do say BS+5 years and I have copy of the Edu evaluation which says Master equivalent , I do see a good chance now to re-open the case .
Mine is not a labor substitute. ( just to clarify)
Thanks

That one phrase in your LC requirement could turn out to be a life saver for you. Can you further clarify the educational/experience requirements mentioned in LC. Was it Masters or equivalent with zero experience OR Bachelors with 5 yrs of progressive experience? Your educational evaluation should meet atleast one of the requirements mentioned in the LC. Either Masters or Bachelors + 5 yrs exp. I think for your educational background (non 4 yr BS degree), I feel more comfortable with getting the evaluation done to satisfy the BS + 5 yrs requirement rather than going for Masters equivalent. NSC is known to be strict w.r.t 3 yr BS degree when it comes to EB-2 cases. However, since your initial evaluation showed you as holding a masters equivalent, I am not sure if its a good idea now to try to defend your case with BS + 5 yrs equivalence. A good attorney would be able to guide you through with this. I also suggest you to consult any reputed attorney regarding this and get feedback on your company attorney's plans and not just blindly follow what your company attorney says.

Hi,
I need you advice.
I have Labor and 140 cleared under EB3 (worldwide) and waiting for 485 to file. PD is December 2005. I am software developer/engineer
I asked my company lawyer to file for EB2 since EB2 is current. This is what their response is.
"DOL has come up with what they consider to be job classifications and separated those into the job zones. There are very few which make it to zone 5 and they include such things as surgeons, lawyers, physicists and the like, in other words highly specialized positions requiring a higher than normal education path and many years experience. There are no computer related positions listed under Job Zone 5. All our positions fall under Job Zone 4 which does not lend itself to EB2 filing. We can�t file under EB2 due to DOL restrictions to minimum requirements for positions."
Is it true that computer professionals now can not file for EB2? Is there any way that EB2 can be filed? Is it not possible?
Please help.
