Dogking,
It took about 6 months. From what I understand, they pull your file from the BEC and cross check against your new PERM application. So if you have already got your 45 day letter, your case is already in the system and may be it will not take all that long.
there is always risk. If the PERM is denied, the RIR will be denied as well, that is the procedure for conversion cases. You can re-file 6 months later.
I just had my PERM filed. My job hasn't changed and I have 2 years left. My lawyer said it's worth to try. Now I have my finger crossed.
rb_248, after you filed the conversion how long for you to got it approved?

1) You can stay home even without any job, when you have EAD.
2) Alternatively, work for this SAP if they could provide a job description similar to your past when an RFE comes your way.
Chill out, you are good.
I have one Question.
How does it work, if I go to India to work for my company (same company which is into products development) for 6 months and then come back.
Currently I am on H1B, and I also have EAD/AP. I am a July 07 filer.
What will happen to my H1B in this absence when I'll not be paid in US, but as India office employee in India.
And can I just come back using EAD/AP, do I need a new H1B approval again (current one expires Apr 2011)
Will staying away from US create problems for my pending 485, or future EAD/AP approvals.

I will be getting unemployment benifits and i think my H1B won't be valid since i lost my job and my next job would be on EAD.

I have submitted all my 10 fingerprints to FBI to get Police Clearance certificate for Canadian Immigration. Will that cause any problems during FP or FBI Name Check?

If one has not maintained his/her prior legal status, countries other than home country will not give the visa. Instead, they would be asked to back to go home country for getting the visa.
I am currently on H1-B .My company is doing a lot of layoffs and I can be laid off anytime. So I have decided to go back to H4 but filing I-539 can take upto 3 months. Someone told me that I should go to Canada/Mexico and that process will be faster.
Can someone plz. tell me what is the procedure and what documents are required for COS from h1 to h4.
Has anyone any experience with Canada/Mexico.How should I fix an appointment?

hi thanks your input.
what about my Lud ? when i will see lUD ? I took biometric yesterday and my pd is curent now.
LUD = LastSoft LUD = status did not change due to updat
Hard LUD = status changed, if registered, email will be sent.
Registration process:
1. register at https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/index.jsp as customer
2. Add cases to your portfolio, in list display it will have the following columns
....Receipt Number
....E-mail
....Last Updated (by USCIS)
....Form #
....Title
The Last Updated above is LUD.

Thanks for your answers. I will consult a lawyer but I have to find one in the first place as I did a self filing.
My PD is current as my I-140 was filed under EB1. My I-485 was received at NSC on July 30, 2007.
Any other suggestions are most welcome.

Hi,
I am trying to e-file AP renewals by myself instead of using my expensive Attorney. I have a question. If you have successfully e-filed, can you please clarify ?
1)My wife was originally admitted into the US as H-4. But now after entering US on H4 and staying on h-4 for about 6 months she used her EAD to work. Her H4 visa was renewed and is still valid even though our Visa stamping on the passport has expired. So what should her class of admission be ? Should I write H4 or EAD ? AP form asks for class of admission.
2)If filing for both self and wife, should this be mailed in two different packets or one packet , two different envelopes ?

I-140 was approved on october 08, 2002
and it was filed on may 20, 2003
i dnt think that my dad filed I-485.
Since the I140 was approved in October 2002 and the visa became current in August 2003, from my knowledge you had until August 2004 to file the I824. The CSPA seems to be very clear you have one year from the time the visa BECAME current so you would have been one year late in applying.
Be assured I know this aging out thing is awful my family is a victim of it too. I see no pleasure watching others suffer.

It may be true that the representatives are looking forward to the elections. But we should make an effort to make them (and maybe the folks who contest against them) knowledgeable about issues faced by Skilled "backlogged" people, in the immigration circus.

Job title is secondary when it comes to AC21. The descriptions is what should match for the same/similar category. However, what a PM does in terms of planning and directing a team is not same/similar as what a Technical lead or Architect does, at least in the company that I work for.

This will make immigration as a major issue for next presidential election
It would be really interesting to see how all these guys handle this issue and it will be jump start for many Republican candidates

I agree with Bestia but the only problem is finding a good employer and trusting someone. In this market everyone wants to take advantage of poor H1bs so kind of tricky to take any decision.
Of course it is. But several steps could be helpful. After getting an offer, meet your future coworkers, ask around, find somebody on H1b, talk to that person. See to what degree the top management is aware of H1b program. My CEO had no much idea about H1b, I considered this as a good sign.

Great! You will get the actual receipt notice like paper filing in a week. Also FP notice to take a picture for your EAD.
OK i e-filed and it showed Nebraska address generating LIN no's instead of MSC etc , it prompted me where my 485 is and i think since it is at NSC it routed automatically to NSC

Good news obviously but I would not jump on it. 2 reasons - we need to make sure they don't keep this practice & second, I don't trust the source of information 100% based on past information.
I support ItIsNotFunny, PD_Recapturing, NK2006..... for their efforts on AC21 issue.
I agree on this. In the past , murthy lawyers have also claimed to have successfull MTR cases but that hardly created any awareness among USCIS about the AC21 law that they are not supposed to directly deny AOS if underlying I-140 gets revoked. Although we hope its good news but I doubt that this is going to make any difference to any future AOS applications whose I-140 get denied.
