Hi,
You do not even need to file AC21.. I changed my employer on EAD from H1B and no issue and got GC also.
Good Luck

This is key. We've been hearing that the White House was still up in the air between the energy bill and immigration and that one of the two would likely be pushed back until after the election. Now it looks like the White House thinks it can walk and chew gum (presumably after the President's approval ratings are slipping as people sense the White House is not actually keeping any of its promises).

Hi,
I was among those randomly selected for further processing in the Diversity Immigrant Visa (DV) program for the fiscal year 2010. Since I currently reside in the U.S., I filed Form I-485 ("Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status"). Upon having my biometrics taken, I had an interview with an Immigration Service Officer at a U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) office. Because of a misunderstanding, I failed to bring to this interview an original Form I-134 ("Affidavit of Support") from a sponsor. Please note that my parents and sibling recently became U.S. citizens and are willing and able to be sponsors.
At the end of the interview, I asked the Immigration Service Officer if I can provide Form I-134 after the fact and he answered no. He made it sound as though a person gets only one chance at an interview with an Immigration Service Officer. He gave me a sheet of paper that had the following ticked off:
"Your case is being held for file review to prepare a decision. You will be advised by mail as to a decision on your application. No additional information is necessary from you at this time, however, if upon further review, additional information or evidence is required, you will receive notice in the mail. Please respond to any request in a timely manner. Failure to do so will result in denial of your application Please allow 60 days from today's date before making an inquiry on your case."
Questions:
1. Is there a way I can provide Form I-134 after the fact? If so, how?
2. If my application is denied, can I appeal the decision? If so, what are the chances of winning such an appeal and still finish adjusting my status before the DV program for fiscal year 2010 ends?
Thank you in advance for all your time and assistance.
Best,
LostAndScared

I was employed by company A between 2002 who has filed I-140 and I-485 in 2007.
After company ceased to exist, USCIS granted an H1 extension based on an approved ALC filing and I moved to company B. According to the owner of company A, it has no plans to file for bankruptcy.
Company B filed for the H1B extension and I received one that expires Oct 2012. However, company B is now unwilling to continue my employment. My employment will cease Nov 2010.
Besides looking for another job, anyone has any inputs?

Hi,
Thanks for your response..
So what if DOL doesn't respond before the H1 expires..Can the Employer file for H1 Extension without an approved LCA ??
And if the LCA is denied because the DOL doesn't recognize the FEIN what options have we got..Can the employer reapply for LCA or just submit the Info and wait for info from DOL ??
Thanks
mars..

The fingerprinting is generally scheduled to give enough time to the personnel at the center to do their job comfortably and not have a large waiting line. From my experience I found that the scheduling is loose and so the folks at the centers can accomodate an extra person very easily. Also these are contractors who get paid by the number of cases so they are okay with doing a fingerprinting if you turn up on an unscheduled day.
The best bet is to turn up on a weekday. I did this for both myself and my wife as we were headed to India the day our fingerprinting was scheduled. There was no one in line and the whole process took at most 10 minutes.
Hope this helps

Iam on L2 and working on my EAD which is expiring on april 29 th 2011.
I have applied for H1 in the 2010 quota but due to my employers mistake i got a rejection on that.
we are trying to reappeal to USCIS but iam not sure if its going to work.
Suppose i have a project and apply again for 2011 quota , can i still continue working even if my EAD expires.
They say that we actually move to H1 on October , so if i apply before end of April through premium processing and get an approval notice before October can i continue working or start work right away or do i have to wait till October.
Is there a possibility to start working immediately as soon as my H1 gets approved or do we have to wait until October in any case.
Thanks in advance

If we can get the statistics that INS or USCIS is wasting numbers every year on i-485 approvals, i would like to initiate a class action suit.

My previuos company had filed two 140. One based on old labor process and the new one on PERM. New one got approved and my 485/EAD/ AP was filed based on approved 140. After 180 days I joined new company using my EAD and AC21. My previous company then withdrew my old 140 (which was still pending). My new 140 is still approved. USCIS denied my and my family's 485 based on withdrawl of old pending 140.
What are my options to fix this mess?
I am distraught. Please help me urgently and any suggestions would be welcome...

Hi,
I am really confused about my current status.
I am currently on Opt Extension, which expires on June 1st 2010.
When i filed for H1b visa last year April 2009.
I got my petition approved, but my change of status was denied.
The reason was stated as :
The status previously accorded the worker had expired before this petition was filed. Therefore, the worker si not eligible for change of status.
Now, I am still in US. Is my status illegal?
Unless there is more to the story, you are currently in F1 status assuming that you are not violating OPT rules (e.g., you must be employed in your major field of study --- you cannot keep looking for job on OPT more than 3 months or so, IIRC). Your F1 status will cease when the OPT expires. You will go out of status from June 1, 2010 and so you should go out of US on or before that date. Then you need to get H1-B visa stamp from a consulate abroad (usually it has to be the consulate in your home country for the first stamping) and reenter US.
Make sure that you are not violating any OPT rules --- maybe USCIS thought that you are and that is why they denied COS?
