But how will get your final step completed ... which is consular processing.
I was thinking you need your passlips (?) as proof of employment.
Sorry if I am pulling this to the top of discussion forums, this is an interesting question, given there will be many people stuck with retrogression and not being able to apply 485.

I dont think its as simple as choosing between EB2 or EB3. It would depend on your job description and which category the job qualifies for. Not all jobs would qualify for EB2. You should consult an immigration attorney to discuss your case.
good point. Also keep in mind:
- you can recapture your PD later. So if your case for EB2 is not that strong, go for EB3, get your PD locked, then a couple of years down the line you can go for EB2 and recapture this older priority date.
- recently the number of PERM audits have gone up, and EB2 ones especially (talked to our company lawyer, and even saw lots of posts on this forum). If the position does not justify EB2 or its hard to justify, you need to be careful and conservative.

But for 140, ability to pay type of RFE can and will be answered by company financials etc. It's just that if you are already employed and are getting more than LC proffered wage and can prove that via W2+paystubs.. it makes it simpler even when company doesn't have enough assets or profits.
But it's not completely a must have,
More to the point though
You can count on getting some type of RFE somewhere in the process that will ask you to prove the status.
Normally W2 and Paystubs are basic stuff that maybe asked even at the time of 485 decision.
and moreover if he's paying you, why work?!!

- RFE for employment letter in Mar 2004
- Case transfered to local office (Newark), May 2005
- 3 EAD renewals, 3 AP renewals
- 25 % more salary than old job. Title in old job was programmer/analyst.
- New job when joined was Systems Analyst.
- For RFE response, supplied a good letter with same job description.
- The current JOb is NJ with a well known insurance company.

Guys, I am in the same boat with my passport expiring in 2007. I will have to get a new passport since the current one was already valid for 10 years (issued in 97).
Does any one here have any experience / ideas on how long it takes to get the new passport from the consulate here ?
Thanks !

Hi kumhyd2,
I am in same boat. What i am thinking is, just work for that employer
for say 1 year or so and then invoke AC21. Then you should have any issues.
My 2 cents.
Thanks,
kris
I 140 : approved last month
I 485 : July 07 filer passed 180 days
GC Process : Substition Labor / Future employment
The future employer is threatening to withdraw the I 140 if I dont comply with his financial terms.
I heard that if I 140 is approved and 485 is pending for 180 days, even if the employer withdraws I140 , there isn't much we need to worry. Is this true. currently on h1 which is expiring next month 6th. To convert to EAD do I need to do anything specific and send an update to USCIS?

Guys!! I have no idea what can bring sense to all of us and unify our voice. America is not our " Fathers or In -Laws " house to give or grant what we want. There is a reason behind why STEM has been established...because there is a shortage for highly skilled and intellectual people. They dont need any software engineers because the golden period of 90s for tech boom is done....now the boom is in BANGALORE!!! So guys jobs have been outsourced and there is no big demand for the techies...and we all know it..DONT WE??? Coming to MBA's i have mentioned this in my earlier post too, there are so many MBAs already here and nstead of mindlessly saying we want MBA's included or we should get EADs for H4 or the next Pope should be an H1B waiting for GC!!!
We should concentrate on efficency of USCIS, increasing the number of Visas rather than adding clauses based on our whims and fancies. America needs Engineers, Scientists, Mathematicians, Biologists, Professors who will bring about innovation and be involved in research because thats what drives a country. What can we techies contribute other than programming which by the way people in INDIA are doing for less if not any better.
Just by paying taxes we cant call what they are doing is unjust against human rights ...etc How many of us tried to write or call our own Netas in India against corruption or any other slight problem.When we didnt exercise our right there...this country is not even ours how can we expect them to show pity on us and include the clauses we want. We have to our earn the rights to get permanent residency and for that if one has to get a Masters Degree maybe thats the price.
A lot of Students come to America on F1 by spending on an average $15000 t0 $20000K and sometimes more and after the downturn when there were no jobs some of these students even paid for a second masters and even Phds without aid when we in california raked in sign in bonuses and all other moolah. Maybe this is the pay back time for people with advanced degrees and lets all accept it gracefully. I know each of us want to continue to live the good old American dream but although the truth is bitter lets be rational with our demands and work towards an educated goal.

2001 - dot com bubble burst;
2008 - finance bubble burst;
Our GC journeys have spanned 2 recessions and we could not even take advantage of the slight boom in the middle...how pathetic.
Dates were current till 2005. They were again current in between.
So it has been a game of luck. Many people got GCs and may even have citizenship by now. Until 2005 your luck depended on the state your labor was filed from.

Thanks for you concern.
I would appreciate it if you can answer to my specific question. :)
Your company would be better off by submitting audited financial to avoid any possible RFP on ability to pay! Also ability to pay not only depends on current standing, if your employer is filing more EB2 for future jobs then he/she may have to prove the business necessity as well.
Good luck.;)

GC is for the future job and hence if your prospective employer will be able to proceed with your GC in your absence till its very end then you should be fine and still be able to come into US as a GC holder when GC is offered to you. However in this case you can't do Adjustment of status since you willn't be staying inside US and hence have to opt for Consular processing if you haven't opted for Consular processing.

i filed for EAD in early April this year. I could check the case status online and see it as "case received and pending". On the last day of April I received my EAD in mail but the status still showed the same.. There was neither soft nor hard LUD. Rather I checked it again today on May 7th and the status is still the same, no soft or hard lud..!
i think there's some disconnect.

My H1 extension expires on March 08, Have EAD, Work for the same employer who sponsered my GC.
Does my employer has to apply for my H1 extension ? Should I use EAD to work with my same employer (what paper work I have to do ?).
Hypothical question, If I use EAD to work, lets say there is a delay in getting my EAD renewed even though I apply 120 days in advance, should I stop working and start working only after I get my new EAD ??
Some may find these as irrelvant thoughts/questions, but we are in this limbo state and it is better to know.
Thanks.

gcwait,
This was his first job after graduation and has remained there since, so there is only one co to show experience from.
I guess I will ask him to get something addressed for some other purpose like Tom suggested.
ampudhukode
Your friend needs to carry all the original degree certificates, original job offer letter from the US company, his resume, H1-B approval, original past experience certificates as mentioned in the resume.
The Embassy official will look at the H1-B approval, original degree certificates, glance thru passport, check the offer letter, check the H1-B approval and may opt to check the experience certificates.

I applied for my EAD in July 2007, got it approved Oct 2007, mailed to me but I NEVER received it.
Today I called USCIS and it says that since it is not "returned to them as undeliverable", they CAN NOT do anything . I will need to APPLY for it again??
Please Help since I dont know what to do as I was expecting the EAD card to start a new job.
Thanks in advance

Hi All,
Is there a way to get an English translation of my birth ceritificate in the US? I have the original with me and to send it to India and get it done seems like a pretty big deal.
Can anyone please advise? Requesting transalation from Marathi to English...
Thanks,
