There may be other avenues to get AP for a longer period. EAD nothing to do with your 485 processing. Without EAD you can get AP if 485 is pending.
Please consult your attorney.
Hello,
My wife and I have a pending AOS, and have our EADs.
My priority date for EB-2 is September 2004.
I plan to go back to school in Spain - starting November 2009. The program ends in December 2010. However, my EAD expires October 2010.
Is there anything I can do to keep my GC processing on track? Can I renew my EAD while I'm in Spain?
Thank you,
Sidd.

Hi,
My wife is going to apply for both H4 and H1 visa. Since marriage is in March end, she will come to US on H4 visa. Her H1 visa will be applied as if she were in India. Now her I94 will say H4. Once she gets her H1B, she will have to go out of country to get new I94.
We can go to Mexico to get it stamped and hence get new I94. If for some reason, H1B is rejected, can she still enter the US on H4 visa?
Thanx,

Along with other documents, include a copy of I485 Receipt Notice and EAD card.
Did any body Tried that earlier, Like instead of sending the H1-B sent "I485 Receipt Notice and EAD card" for parents Visa ?

This is standard message when USCIS receives an RFE response. I had the same message when USCIS received my I140 rfe response.
This is in regards to 485-RFE response. Though text remains similar, meaning could have been different.

Over 500 Indian guest workers sue US company for human trafficking - The Times of India (http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/nri/news/Over-500-Indian-guest-workers-sue-US-company-for-human-trafficking/articleshow/7548222.cms)
HOUSTON: Lawyers for a group of Indian guest workers, trafficked to the US from India to work in shipyards after Hurricane Katrina in 2005, have sued an American company, Signal International, along with its co-conspirators and other entities for human trafficking and racketeering.
If class status is granted, the lawsuit could be the largest human trafficking case in US history, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has said in a statement.
Workers were allegedly lured here with dishonest assurances of becoming lawful permanent US residents, the statement said.
The ACLU joined a class action lawsuit brought on behalf of over 500 guest workers from India charging that the workers were trafficked into the US through the federal government's H-2B guest worker programme with dishonest assurances of becoming lawful permanent US residents and subjected to squalid living conditions, fraudulent payment practises, and threats of serious harm upon their arrival.
The complaint alleges that recruiting agents hired by the marine industry company Signal International held the guest workers' passports and visas, coerced them into paying extraordinary fees for recruitment, immigration processing and travel, and threatened the workers with serious legal and physical harm if they did not work under the Signal-restricted guest worker visa.
The complaint also alleges that once in the US, the men were required to live in Signal's guarded, over crowded labour camps, subjected to psychological abuse and defrauded out of adequate payment for their work.
The ACLU charges that the federal government has fallen short of its responsibility to protect the rights of guest workers in this country.
According to the lawsuit, the treatment of the workers violates the Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act (TVPA) and the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organisations Act (RICO).
In addition to the federal court litigation, in partnership with the ACLU, the workers have testified before the UN special rapporteur on the human rights of migrants, the UN special rapporteur on contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance, and senior staff at the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights.
Signal, a marine and fabrication company with shipyards in Mississippi, Texas and Alabama, is a subcontractor for several major multinational companies.

I believe my situation is a lot similar to man-woman-and-gc except maybe that I am single. This is what I have achieved so far after sticking to Company A for 4.5 years (this one was pretty big in size; so didn't have to worry about any paperwork):
1) I-140 approved in August 2008 (total of 198 days till date i.e. March 5th 2009)
2) I-485 pending since July 2007 (USCIS receipt date of September 29 2007)
3) EAD valid till October 2010
4) H1-B valid till October 2010
5) PD: Feb 2007
However as a preemptive measure against any potential layoff from company A, I have started looking around. I am preparing a checklist of things that I have to inform the other companies (say company B) so that the transition is smooth. The 2 main things I can think of to talk about with any potential employer are:
1) I DEFINITELY want to maintain my H1-B; so they will have to transfer it. I will be pushing this to make sure I have the flexibility to get a dependent at any time
2) They will have to help me MAINTAIN my GC process. For example any minor changes in the position requirements to show that the job is similar or same. Thats one reason I am primarily looking at similar work profiles
I would GREATLY appreciate if someone from this thread can point me to any location or list out the things that I should be extremely careful about or notify to both my previous employer and the future employer to avoid any future pains in my GC process. A few things that I remember are as follows, but please provide more information that may be missed out here:
1) Do I have to ask Company B to apply for anything relating to my GC? I want to make sure that they know and agree to all costs associated with the paperwork? Dont want to end up paying from my pocket as I have heard in a few cases before
2) I believe since my I-140 is approved for more than 180 days or actually my I-485 being filed for more than 180 days, I am allowed to move, correct?
3) Since my I-140 is approved and I have an EAD, can USCIS/Company A cause it to be revoked? OR it doesn't apply to my case?
4) Do I need to ask Company A to maintain anything? Or just keeping good relations with them is enough :)
Thanks a lot to everyone in advance. Please let me know at your earliest convenience as you never know when opportunities come knocking at your door. Its better to be prepared ;)

My company has put BS + 7 as the primary minimum requirement, and MS + 5 as the alternative for my position. The lawyer says that he's going to respond "Yes" to the question "Are the requirements normal to the occupation?". His argument is that for the job title (Senior Software Engineer Team Lead), and the job description (which calls for extensive experience), the requirements are normal. He says the normalcy of the requirements have to be gauged both by the quantitative SVP criteria, as well as the qualitative O*Net description of job duties. While the quantitative criteria restricts requirements to BS + 2 or MS + 0, the qualitative criteria allows for "several years" of experience, depending on job duties.
I have seen the vast majority of EB2 cases not going over the BS + 5, or MS + 1, even though in the real world most employers will ask for much more experience. I think this is just to avoid business necessity issues. My company as well as my lawyer are sticking to the BS + 7 requirement. Let's see what happens. I either have a very smart lawyer at hand, or a very clueless one.

I only have V2 so I'm not sure if all this applies.
As far as chrome goes, I've found that speculative colors, with highlights and shadows turned on, can produce chrome looking effects if the lights are positioned correctly. It takes some playing around though. The objects are vector drawn though, so keep that in mind. The objects will never look really chrome, just metalic.
In V2 you couldn't cut a quarter out of a square. I would take 7 squares, position them in place so that it looked like a chunk was taken out of a single square, then grouped them together.
If you're looking to do serious cut away 3D modeling, and wire mesh 3D modeling, then you should look into getting a copy of 3DSmax or something equivilant. It also has great metal, glass, and gassious effects. As far as I know, Swift3D don't do that yet. (like I said though, I haven't seen V3 yet)

Actually I have an L2 not an L1...hence the need of an EAD before the green card...
Now that you have the GC, quit worrying about expired EAD and all that crap. Enjoy the freedom and privileges of green card life. Don't worry about trivial things like EADs now.

Hi,
I got appointment letter for Biometrics from USCIS. I already gave in 2007.
Why are they asking again? and I only got this, my husband and son didn't get it.
Right now I am on EAD, since last december(2009) I am not working, will there be any issues as I am the primary applicant.
Thanks
Nothing to worry, go ahead and give your biometrics, my friend did it twice. If you want more clarification to sleep better, take infopass and get things clarified

HI,
I received a 500$ check for apartment referral , I am planning to give the entire amount to the person who took the apartment. I was wondering if during the tax return filing I should be reporting this as an income and if yes should I be deducting the tax amount from the 500$ as I will be paying taxes on it.
Any information is appreciated.
Thanks,
It is a taxable income (you got a commission for a service). However such a small change in your total household income should change your tax liability very little, and usually people would not bother to withold tax before passing it on. Also if you pass it on, that will probably fall under "gift" and will have different tax codes. For a small amount, such hassles may not be worth. Of course if you get such commissions regularly, or if it a sizable part of your total income, then you need proper calculations.

What you mean by "Becareful..lot of screening is going on in PERM"?
You mean in ALL PERM or in EB2 PERM.
My lawyer is very scared to file my new case under EB2 PERM. His opinion is we may get an audit.
I have already EB3 PERM/I-140 approved. And now looking to file EB2 PERM with Bachelors+ 5 year Exp. (due to degree evaluation issues I am not able to file under Masters + 6 month exp).
Ok, I also have one Tradional LC (from Texas) and one RIR case (from MN) pending in BEC.
So the new case will be my 4th case.
