Hello,
This is my status.
I 140 � Approved in 2006 and have a copy.
I 485 � Filed in Jul 2007, Receipt date Jul 02, 2007. Have copy of I 485 receipt.
Perm Labor � Have perm labor approval copy.
Since it has been more than 180 days I 485 is pending and I 140 also approved, I joined my client. Now my old employer says he will withdraw my I 140.
I would like to send AC21 job change info to USCIS my self.
Please let me know if any one is in the same situation and filed (informed) AC21 by yourself.
And also advice if anyone used new attorney only for AC21.
Thanks.

Its very natural to get paranoid about little things like signing the cover letter specially when we are at the mercy of USCIS. But is there an end to how much we can be paranoid about? No. So I suggest you sit tight and let the chips fall where they may.
Not signing the cover letter is not an issue in my opinion!
Hi,
I have filed I-485 application myself for me & my wife on July 5th, 2007.
I have listed all the documents in the packet on the cover letter, but forgot to sign the at the bottom (both me & my wife) after 'Sincerely'.It has blank in place of my signature and name printed in the brackets.Will it be a problem?
What should I do now to correct this? Should I send the signed cover letter separately (explaining that I forgot to sign)? Your suggestion is highly appreciated.
Thank you.

My lawyer sent me the fedex tracking sheet for the I-485 package sent to:
USCIS
Nebraska Service Center
850 S Street
Lincoln, NE 68508
I did not see any PO Box on the Fedex tracking sheet. I am not sure if she put the PO Box on the shipping label or not??
Is it a big deal?? Will my application be accepted.
Please help
po box is for usps delivery only. fedex doesn't delivery mails addressed to po box.

this is a fair analysis..... gutierrez doesn't care for anyone as long as there is a provision for legalization...... he doesn't care for family unity either.... he just wants "legalization"...... but he could have done this without walking on me & beating me down.... in that sense it could it be interpreted that gutierrez is a jerk.... & like grassley..... he hates people like us.....

GC wont put you in any better position. You are basically hiding, the day the interpol comes after you, they dont care you have a GC you will be arrested and deported.They can have your address and knock on your door anytime.
You might get away with everything and get a green card. I hope you did not do anything wrong.
All the best

if your wife has chosen Consular processing when filing I-140, it is possible to go ahead with concurrent applications
Hi Friends,
I have applied for my I485 last month and received receipt numbers this week. At the time I consulted my company lawyer and he said it is possible apply from your wife's company for both of us and when USCIS gets to approving one application they will ask other one to be withdrawn.
The reason I asked and agreed to do so was manily because of the VERY unstable condition our my job. My wife's job is more stable than mine.
Now we are try to apply from my wife's company, her lawyer is saying that we can not have more than one I485 pending, had I known this - it more based on interpretation from the lawyers I would not have applied for my application just applied for my wife's.
Hoping that nothing may happen should I drop the idea of applying for I485 from my wife's company. Although my hope line is too thin.
My question is has any on in similar situation applied for 2 I485s. I am really confused as my lawyer says that it is possible and my wife's lawyer says it is not possible to have 2 pending I485 applications..

Thanks to all those who have responded to us. We will send out an email to all very soon. We are also planning to have a conference call sometime this week to go over this.
Others, please consider volunteering...as we said before, all we need is 15 mins (max) per day and you might not even have to work on this everyday!

So it means that if I-140 petition is filed on my behalf, if I renew my non-immigrant visa, it would be denied?

I think its ok. I am in the same boat. But the applicaiton will be transfered to TSC.
Not sure how long it will take.
If it has to be transferred Texas why my employer did this * intentionally * to Nebraska :mad:
huh.. hopefully it will not delay my receipt date. I am planning to travel abroad and waiting for the 485 receipt notice..
Thanks for your answers. Really appreciated

I think if you never entered on a non-immigrant visa (in your case H1) after overstaying previous Non-immigrant visa (F1), you could still be in trouble. My understanding is that they wan to see your continued legal presence and maintenance of status from your last entry thru the day when you applied I-485. If the only time you entered US since Jan 2003 is on AP then you might be in trouble.
This is based on my reading up other posts on IV and may not be accurate.

Your priority date is Dec 2004, in which case it is presumable that you are aware of immigration laws. I'm sure you know that working for cash is illegal when you are on H4 visa. Then why the hell would you advise someone to do it?
This is a very irresponsible advice you have given. Please refrain from doing it again.
Either you can enrich your skills by joining some short term courses or do small work (like teaching kids/ day care/ dance classes/ singing etc) where in you can earn CASH .................. I am not sure of your background so cannot comment on choices that you have.

Hi All,
It would be great if you tell me how to go about with police complain for lost passport? Is it just I have to call 911 or go in person? And what questions they ask?
Thank You

As far as I can tell, extension tubes have straight-through contacts. They do work well with any lens, at least I've tried it with most of my lenses.
The length of extension is going to limit the focal length of lens that you can use. For example. with a 16mm focal length lens, the 12mm extension (smallest I have or have seen) causes the lens to have an 'infinity' focus that's actually behind the front element of the lens. Only useful for taking a picture of the dust on/in your lens! I suspect using them with a fisheye would be futile, not to mention pointless.
But, I've found a small amount of extension, like 12mm, is very handy for long tele lenses, because of the shortening of the infinity focus point. I found it hard to get close to butterflys with 100mm macro, and putting an extension on either a 200mm or 100-400mm let me over come their minimum focus distance, yet stay farther enough away that the subject didn't fly off.
The 'magnification factor' is much less with this arrangement, than with (for example) the 100mm macro. Much less that 1:1 I think. So it's a trade off, like everything else.
The 'macro filter' or diopter lens works exactly like those magnifying 'reading glasses' you see in the drugstore. You can't stack them like tubes so there's one level of adjustment available to you, plus they only fit one size of lens wherease tubes fit any lens with the correct mount. A filter doesn't decrease depth of field as much as an extension tube does, either.
Lastly, extension tubes are easier and faster to put on a take off, and don't give you problems with finger smudges. You can even hang them on a pinky finger between uses (I often switch them on/off the camera while I;m shooting.

All,
I did not contact the Ombudsmans Office or Aytes or AILA or DOS in order to discuss my personal case. It was just a part of my now years long efforts to bring attention to certain issues -- I've been speaking with staff at the Ombudsmans office for several years now, some issues and recommendations that have appeared in his report over the years were the result of these conversations.

Hi Bhatt,
thank you! :)
I am pretty excited as this was the best thing I could hope for at this point. I have entered the DV before and was never selected.
I wish I could afford a lawyer to assist, but that doesn't seem to be an option for me right now.
Anyone has any ideas and the turn around time once I have submitted the paperwork and when to hear back from them for an interview?

Yes, you can upgrade to anytime and in your case, if you had labor approved and I140 pending until Nov 1st, then you can upgrade to PP, wait for its approval and apply for a 3 year extension.
You can also apply for H1 before and when I140 pps goes through, notify CIS about your I140 approval with a request to grant a 3 year extension instead of 1.

I am sure if there is media present at the location, they would want to talk to people from IV. So do your best, guys.
If possible meet some USCIS folks (if opportunities exist).
