Documents required for EAD/I-765 per person:
Completed Form I-765 (EAD):
http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-765.pdf
2 photos(full frontal)
USCIS filing fee - $180.00 check payable to 'United States Citizenship and Immigration Service' OR 'USCIS' with your (A# or SSN#) and I-765 mentioned in the comments section of the check
Copy of recent I-94 card (both sides)
Copy of visa page of passport in color
Copy of driver's license
Copy of I-485 receipt notice (if applicable)
Copy of I-140 approval notice
Copy of Marriage certificate (if applying for spouse)
I also included the latest H1B Approval Notice and Birth Certificate as per the checklist by my lawyer. His fees was high so I filed couple of weeks back and got the Receipt Number from the back of my check.
Since this is not concurrent filing, i think the fees will increase on July 30th.

My Receipt Date is Sept 18th. I changed address before I got my receipt.
For address change,
1) On Sept 25th, I filed AR-11 online, then as a chain, modified the addresses on all my pending applications. I got letter confirmations. This happened in Sept.
2) I also called them in Nov to raise a SR since I did not receive the FP notices. In the SR, I again gave my new address.
3) Then today I got the status changed as Notice Returned as Undeliverable.
4) I called USCIS first thing in the morning and again raised a SR
5) I also took an Infopass to meet field office folks and ask for help
All this I did to my spouse also.

Do you think its possible to merge all the databases in just 10 days? How realistic is it?
Howcome they put such a tight deadline for this database merger ? If they can do this in 10 days then Nov'2008 VB might have few surprises.
Thanks.

Came across this article:
Title: U.S. Immigration Reform Bill Could Pass by July
http://www2.csoonline.com/blog_view.html?CID=29025
Can someone please explain, even just in broad strokes, how the Immigration Reform (if passed) would affect someone in EB3 - ROW?
Thanks

Hello Members,
Can someone please clarify my doubt below:
If I have an approved H1B starting Oct 1st 2008, will I be able to cancel it to be able to continue on my OPT (valid till June 2009) and get a 17 month extension from June 2009?
Thanks in Advance.
Swetha.

Thanks Raj. Is interfiling request just a one page letter to USCIS or anything more involved? I presume you also did the priority date porting at the same time.

While I am touched by your concern for EB1 fraud and how it impacts EB3, i would hazard a guess that the OP was a troll OP and does not merit any answers
EB1 Spill Over --> EB2 with oldest priority dates --> EB2 ROW --> --> EB3 with oldest priority dates(India & China) -->EB3 ROW.
Believe me, stopping EB1C fraud directly helps EB3 India.

Yup, I had the same info conveyed to me via lawyer.
One more thing to note, in case of denial, hang on to the I-539 receipt, denial notice etc. this will help your parent/s to present their case whenever they go for new VISA after existing(assuming 10 yr. Multiple) expires. This will help them prove that they did not overstay illegally.

HI gccovet,
i am planning to apply for extension of my parents visitors visa. Fees is 300 dollars and i have to apply for them in same form. So do i need to pay 300 dollars or 600 dollars. your help will be appreciated.
thanks

Same here.
I applied on May 18th and my EAD expires on Aug 10th. There were three SLUDs in a row two weeks after I applied, and there is no update after that.
Did you notice any LUDs in your case? Are you still waiting for a decision? Please update.
you are right! i obviously got the application date wrong. I applied on may 17th - not on june 17th as i previously wrote.

She is a derivate on my pending AOS, has a valid EAD/AP. She used to work on H1 and stopped work sometime ago. Does she need to do anything/is she automatically considered to be in AoS status?

Which US consulate did you apply? Do you already have H1B on your passport? I think the best option will be to approach your employer and have them sort this issue out. Sometimes, the consulate will request for some additional information from the employer and once they get this information, they will issue the visa.
Good luck!
I am in a distress please help me. I attended the US consulate for a new H1B Visa. The visa was refused under 221(g). The reason mentioned for the refusal was:
Your petitioner does not appear to be either able or willing to provide qualifying employment in the United States in accordance with appropriate laws and regulations.
VO mentioned the documents will be sent back to USCIS. Pretty much kept all the documents like I-797, I 129, petition documents, certificates, client agreement, etc.
They mentioned the candidate profile is good but they have doubts about the employer. As far as I know and through my research the employer is good and have all the necessary documents correct. There is nothing wrong in the documentation and every thing is as per stipulated guidelines.
The employer has a good employeee strength and I had good feed back from other employees as well. I am pretty sure the employer is in a position to employ and provide the salary. I do not know on what basis the USCIS has come to conclusion that the employer is not qualified. Only few days back there were two visas granted for the same employer.
Please advise me what to do next. I need to do things urgently as I do not have enough time left (only few months ) on the H1 B Validity.
1. Do I need to send a mail to Consulate asking the specific reasons for denial?
2. Do I need to write to the senator or some one about this?
3. Do I need to consult an attorney about and re-request for a review of the petition?
4. Do I need to ask the employer anything specific.
I have been banking on this opportunity for the last two years and had planned everything hoping everything will go smooth. I am in a distress. Please advise me the next steps urgently so I dont loose the opportunity.

Hi,
My friend got GC when he was single. Later he got married . So spouse is still in India . She has not received GC. She has no visa to visit him.
That is the reason H1B option is being explored. She has the right qualifications and relevant experience. US Corporation is willing to sponser her H1B petition.
Since her husband is already in USA and green card holder, visa officer might reject her H1B petition stating that she is an intended immigrant.
or
he might issue the H1B visa because it is a dual intent visa.
So what's the chances of her getting the H1B visa.
Thanks
