My 140 was filed last week and I don't have the receipt number. Can I file 485 without I140 receipt number?
Ask yourself.. how do people file concurrently ?! .. the only problem will be if your I-485 comes for review before I-140 is cleared. Then you'll get a notice for denial since I-140 is not approved. But what are the chances of that happening in todays scenario unless you have a very old PD>
check it out with ur attorney.

I guess we have to keep all this in mind when we ask for a bill that would solve the retrogression problem. Solving one problem and getting into others and ending up in the same place does not make sense.
Maybe we can suggest some relief measures to be added on to SKIL or CIR bill itself anticipating what USCIS, FBI and whatever other relavent organization is going to face, specially if something like the CIR passes, there is no way the current setup will be able to absorbe 12 to 20 million more cases even if they are added to the back of the list, giving priority to who is already in the pipeline.

thank you for the responses. it does seem to be a bit of bad luck. i only have 20 days before my I-94 expires. are they very strict about when it expires or do i get a grace period?
for the first option (going out of the country), i need to get a mexican permit to enter mexico and that takes 10 working days to receive. that would leave me with about 1 day in which to fly to mexico and get a new I-94.
for the second option (I-539), that takes 45 days to process, so my I-94 will expire and i wont have a new one yet, even though i've applied for it.
if there's a grace period (is there one??) i might take the USCIS option since it'll be cheaper than flying to mexico.
thanks again for the help.

This is ridiculous , If you are having 11 -26 year old kid or wife , you should be outraged . Dont risk the life for GC , I know its just a vacination but why only for immigrants ?they want to test the vacination on immigrants ?
If you have a kid do a i-report to CNN , get the attention of media , write to 60 minutes.

True, it covers only Citizenship (naturalization) applicants. However, it's worthwhile to explore if this lawsuit can be extended to cover GC applicants or ACLU is willing to file another for GC applicants too . It may provide a chance to those on IV still stuck in Namechecks.
Class-actions may be slow, but they provide benefits to all future GC applicants (if successful) unlike WOM cases which benefit only the applicant.

I guess you should be good with your AP . But also there was a thread about one of the IV'ians AP experience at SFO. Please read that so can understand what AP is for and when it can be used as per the IO at SFO airport
If a DUI can cause automatic rejection of I-485, will this be OK at the Port Of Entry? The answer is obvious. Should do as advised by the attorney not as experienced by others on a forum.

You wil need to Update your Biographic information(there is a form # for it) for your I485 application. It is not mandatory. But is adviced to do so. Why are you hesitating to update your I485 to drop your spouse?
US consulate in India will not have the information regarding I485.
Thanks So much for the Answers.
Can you please answer one more Question?
I m not updating the INS regarding the Divorce, when my new wife attaends the H4, she would show the Divorce and Remarried certficate to the Consulate is that good enough so that they would take care of evrything?
Thank you again

At the time of your entry, if your I 485 is approved, then use your EAD t enter into US. Otherwise, just use your valid H1B visa to enter US.
You mean "AP", not "EAD" to enter into US.

Where did you get this info from? source?
140000 ( TOTAL GC ) - 35000 ( LAST YEAR EB1 ) = 105k - (40K) EB3 = 65k - ( 5k EB4 AND EB5 ) = 60k - 25k ( EB2 ROW ) = 35k.
Eb2 India has following pending cases ( Guess ) based on some data from senator and labor data.
10k = 2004
5k = 2005
18k = 2006
25k = 2007
China Eb2 has like below.
4k = 2005
7k = 2006
7k = 2007
So this year they will not just divide between india and china but india will get more share than china. So india will get 25k to reach Mid 2006 and China will get 10k to cover till 2006. or it can stay same as india.

By law, you need to notify change of address within 10 days of your move.
DISCLAIMER: I am not an Attorney and this is not a legal advice.
Just a suggestion, if you don't want to update your case status now (aka "rock the boat"), then you can commute/telecommute from old address till sept 1.

Our finger prints does not change. They have our FP on their system. Providing new finger prints does not add any value to our case or US security.
Additional FPs just result in wastage of resources for us and USCIS (eventually tax payers). They can utilize same resouces for processing applications in FIFO.

It could possibly be Kodak prefer Nikon bodies and lenses. Mike
Maybe 5 years ago. Now, lenses?
While the Pro SLR/n is a significant improvement over the 14n, I think it's still a studio camera, and a great one too. In addition, if you got a load of the latest great biggest Nikon 2.8 zooms, which is optimal for the camera, its just a great bargain.
But . . .

Welcome to IV. Wish I could help you but I don't have a clue about marriage based GC applications. Infact majority of the people here are on the Employment Based GC path but I hope someone can show you the path.
In the meantime also try these forums.
http://britishexpats.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=34
http://groups.google.com/group/misc.immigration.usa/topics
They have a more diverse (Both EB and other GC applicants) mix of people in those forums. Hope that helps.
Best of luck and congratulations !!!:cool:
I'm a US-born citizen and my dear friend (now my wife) came to US from Thailand on R1/R2 Multiple Entry Visitor Visa for pleasure and to travel around with me to see the US. Though not intending to, we ultimately married while she was here on her visitor visa. See chronology below. We need to file the right forms. Please help me as this is a daunting task. If I can get some questions answered, then it will clear the clouded skies!
We both will be in the US during this process.
Me > :confused:
My Wife > :(
Here is our current situation:
1. I've been back and forth to Thailand for better part of three years for tsunami relief.
2. Met my wife doing relief work.
3. She applied for visitor visa at US Embassy in Bangkok March 2007.
4. Came first time to US May 2007
5. Married in California in July 2007 (had not intended to, but we fell in love!)
6. Returned to Thailand Sept 2007
7. Returned to US (together) Dec 2007 and are here now (March 2008)
8. Have filled out forms:
I-130 Petition for Alien Relative
I-485 Permanent Res/Adjust Status
I-325A Bio for each of us
I-134 Affidavit of Support
I-765 Employment Authorization Note: is eligibility req (c)(9) correct on line 16?
I feel there are no unusual circumstances about us. We are just normal people and don't fall under any asylum, Cuban or otherwise situations. I need to know about filing what forms and which ones together. Also, which ones will require certain documentation and when should they be included. We will likely file the 130/485/325/765 concurrently. What else should we file and what do I not need to file that I've listed?
Please get me going on this and then I can stop pulling my hair out.
I discoverd this forum today and am so happy I've found it! :D
