Some where I read that there is no fee for renewal of AP. I am a Jul 07 filer and am not sure about this. Further already applied last for Advance parole and travelled till it got expired last month. I am applying for a new one again. So just wanted to know if I need to pay the fees $305.
So my questions are:
Does the July 07 filers need to send the cheque for $305
Should we also include Biometric fee of $80?
And how much time is it taking these days for AP/
Thanks in advance
There is a confusion regarding who pays what amount.
To avoid the filing date confusion, stick to this simple rule :
If you paid less than $400 ( I do not remeber the exact I-485 fees prior to the increase), then you need to pay for the Ap and EAD, the respective amount. If you paid more than $900 for your I-485 filing, then go file AP and EAD as much as you want.
For either case, you do not have to pay for the biometric. Biometric is only for EAD. Not for AP.
AP takes roughly 45 days.
Hope this is clear.

The VBs normally come out on Fridays. So this month's VB will probably be on DOS's website this Friday. But I don't see any positive sign for EB movements. We will be lucky if EB2 and EB3 don't retrogress again, according to DOS's hint last month. To be realistic, there won't be any significant movement without any bills favoring immigration passed.

Hi,
I am currently working on a fulltime H1B and my GC process is going on with second stage (I140) in progress. Now my old employer wants me to work parttime for them which I agreed upon but this is a possibility only if I have a parttime H1B applied w.r.t old employer which I am thinking to apply for it and work parttime. But my question here is does this effect my GC processing? If it is what are the effects? Please reply me back. Thanks a lot.
Regards

Hi,
Can anyone tell me if its ok to mail my EAD & AP and spouse's EAD & AP renewals to be mailed in the same package to Texas? I can't find any posts regarding this.
The PO Box address for EAD is different from AP. But i think for non USPS carriers, there is only one address for Texas center (4141 N augustine rd).
So If I use this address can I mail all the 4 applications in the same package?
I am not trying to save money but feel that keeping all the apps together might help especially primary and secondary applicants...
Thanks.

My case is not premium processing and the online status changed to "approval notice sent " for 4 days before the status changed to " document sent ". Its an I 140 and I heard that the mistake was restricted to PP cases . So I do not think that is the issue . Some one said it could be the last status on an approved I 140
Thanks anyway for the info

What is interesting in this? This is not interesting, this is published guideline from USCIS. But the outcome is not guaranteed to get an EAD.

HI Folks
The reason for this post is as usual- too much confusion and no clear answers. i read on oh law firm that if you are not in a non-immigrant status i.e are working on EAD, there should be no gap in your EAD while you are working. Meanin you should stop working if your current EAD expires and your new EAD is pending- otherwise its a violation of law and provisions of 245 do not protect you because technically you are NOT a non-immigrant.
Is that true?????
Now, i recently had to go to India for an emergency, and had to come back on AP- did not have time to get my H1b visa stamped. I asked at the immigration counter if my H1b is invalidated and he told me it is. I spoke to my lawyer and she told me if you resume your H1b employment with the same employer- you are back in status- i kinda did not buy that though.
Can someone please shed light. My concern is that my EAD is expired- new one is pinding. Although i was on h1b when i left for India, but came back using AP. Am i breaking a law by working??
thanks
If you resume the job you were doing before you left, you do not need EAD. If you switch employment, then you have to use EAD.

They might accept the application but send in an RFE with a request to pay the difference ;)
Wish USCIS accepts applications after 27th and ask for the fee difference .. Win Win for all if the fee was the concern for USCIS .. hehe:D :D

Hi,
I am on Adv-Parole (with EAD) and planning to visit India in July 2010.
I know that UK and France require transit visa, but I was wondering whether I can fly via KLM (Amsterdam) OR Lufthansa (Frankfurt) without any transit visa ?
Will appreciate the response.
Thanks,
Venu.

I came to US on H4, 3 years ago. Later I took my H1B with a recruiter and got it with I-94. It was valid up to 2007 oct. But I couldn't take up any work due to some problems. Recently I went to India and came back. At the port of entry I got new I-94 with H4 stamping. Means My H1 Is not valid now ? In this case, is there any way to apply for change of status again as my H1 is valid up to 2007. Or else do I need to apply for my new H1B again ? Pl. any one clarify.
Once you are counted in the H1 cap you don't need to be counted again to extend your H1 status. But if you went to the consulate and got an H4 visa stamp, you might need to wait again till h1 visa is available again in april 2007.
I am curious to know, how your interview went in the consulate. Because you were on H1, without working. If you were not working and not recieving paystubs you are out of status. Didn't that create problems when you change to H4 ?

It depends on the I-140 you requested USCIS to consider while you aplied for I-485. There is some process called interifling, where you can later request USCIS to use the I-140 with better priority date against the I-485 so you can avoid multiple I-485.
hello Jai_Immigration,
I am in a similar situation and was wondering if you have any idea...I had applied for my 485 using an approved I140. Last year I had another I140 applied (since the first 140 application was about to get denied) and this application is still pending at USCIS. USCIS has sent an RFE on this second application last week (which my lawyer hasn't received yet).
Do you think this second I140 application will cause any effect on my 485 application? I had used my first 140 which was approved for my 485 application.
Thanks.

Submit both the I94 at the airport. But maintain copies. Also do not forget to submit the I94 which has the stamp when you entered this country if you have not already done before.

For TC, if you are a AAA member, you can buy AMEX TC from AAA fee free.
Also, you get better exchange rates in India with TC.
