She does not need to do anything but get a job, fill form I-9 and start working again. She is in a period of authorized stay since her I-485 is pending. I don't think it's even necessary to apply H4 for her.

My PD is Feb 20, 2006. I fall into EB-3 ROW and it seems like my PD will be current in May 2008. I filed my I-485 in Aug 2007 and have had my EAD and AP approved. I got married in Sept 2007 and my spouse came here on H-4 after our marriage and we both have valid visas respectively H1 and H4. She can't file I-485 to adjust status until May due to PD not being current. We would like to handle the task of filing I-485/EAD/AP for her ourselves without paying our attorney. I do have all documents my attorney filed for myself so I plan to mimic them when we file my spouse's papers.
What I do not know is, if there's anything we need to do for her to represent herself. Do i need to let my attorney know that we are filing I-485 on our own? Does my attorney need to do anything?
I am thinking that her application should be easier than mine as she is simply a dependent.
Do I need to sign anything or fill out any form as the primary applicant or the approach is simple.... as long as she can prove that she is my spouse, (I have a I-485 pending) and PD is current she can do AOS?
Do all forms for I-485, EAD and AP need to be mailed together? Is information about her background/work/school diploma needed?
Has anybody been in this situtation or similar and is there a checklist of things to do?
Thank you in advance for any help or advice.

Greetings,
My father (over 60 years) is coming to the States in June 15, and his B1 visa expires on June 24. However, my father is planning to stay until August 20.
My question is:
Will he be able to stay after his visa expiration date?
In other words, when will his I-94 expire?
Regards,
Rasheed

hi,
i entered the US on AP in Jan 2010, and at the time of entry, my I94 validity was set for
1 year (viz Jan 2011) - and the AP also noted "AoS" status on it.
(a) Is the validity of my I94 (and thus my legal stay) 1 year, or as i have read elsewhere,
if AoS is pending, then its valid till the AoS case is decided?
(b) If the validity is 1 year, what is the process for extending the I94 validity?
thanks for your time,
-andy
a. Yes, you are on valid AOS status.
b. No need to extend your I-94 as long as your AOS is pending.

My Personal experience was:
- When my H1B was filed for the first time it had a wrong Date of Birth, lawyer asked me to bring Birth Certificate to the Interview at the consulate. I did not have problems with the stamping of the visa.
When my extension was filed , again, Date of Birth was wrong. Lawyer told me the same thing. Get recent Birth Certificate and bring it to the Interview.
Did not have any problem at all.
:D

I travelled via Frankfurt with a valid I-797 and without a current H1B visa stamp (was going to India for my 1st stamping) last year. I had confirmed with the German Counsulate in US that as long I have valid I-797 I don't need a transit visa.

what's the difference?
this is a request to you NOT to open a new thread for every mailroom guy in USCIS. there are plenty of threads tracking the receipts, what is wrong with using them? do we really need to divide ourselves on different threads by who signed the fedex receipt???

I've filed for I129 but I don't yet have my I-797C, Notice of Action form with me. I do have my receipt number and I was wondering if it was possible to find out the service center based on that.
When I check the status of my case online, it does not include any information regarding which service is processing my application.
If your receipt numbers begins with
WAC - CSC service center
EAC - VSC service center
LIN - NSC service center
SRC - TSC service center

I have an approved i140 from old employer, using which I am planning to file i485 (As PD from old PERM/i140 is current for the month of Aug. & no labor filed for ne employer). As I am in good terms with old employer, they are ready to give me a "future employment letter" for my GC processing.
Can someone please let me know -
1. Format of the letter, details thats needs to be present in it,
2. Anything else I need from the old employer.
Thanks!
Depends, is the job offer/position still open? Do you intend to go back to your old company when you get the GC? If not, it is illegal to file 485 (by means of fraud) using the old i140.
If legal, I guess the job offer should just state that the offer is contingent upon getting your permanent residency.
PS: I have no experience in "future offer letter", but making a guess based on the offer letter I got when I had not yet got my H1.

Hi:
Me and my husband left US on AP, which is valid until nxt year. We both were working on valid H1's until we left. We dont want to go for stamping and will use AP on our arrival at the POE. We havent applied for EAD when we left. Is it Ok for us to apply for EAD once we are back in US or is it ok to apply for H1's again once we r back. In both cases whether we go for h1 or EAD, can we start wroking rt a way or do we need approval first.
Thanks.

In response to the major delays with Labor Condition Applications (LCA's), the USCIS announced a temporary policy and procedural change regarding H1B petition filings. Effective November 5, 2009, H1B cases can be filed prior to the certification of the required Labor Condition Application (LCA). This change was necessitated by delays in LCA processing through the Department of Labor (DOL).
Here is how the new process will work. USCIS will begin to accept H-1B (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) petitions filed with uncertified LCAs for a 120-day period, commencing November 5, 2009 and through March 4, 2010. However, USCIS will only accept such H-1B petitions if they are filed at least 7 calendar days after the LCAs were filed with DOL and include evidence of these filings. The only acceptable evidence of filing is a copy of DOL�s email giving notice of receipt of the LCA.
Petitioners who seek to take advantage of this temporary flexibility in the normal filing procedures for H-1B petitions must wait until they receive a request for evidence (RFE) before they submit the DOL-certified LCA to USCIS in support of the H-1B petition. USCIS will give petitioners a period of 30 calendar days within which they must send in a DOL certified LCA in response to the RFE. We welcome this new procedure and hope that it will expedite current H1B processing.
Read the USCIS memo here (http://www.uscis.gov/USCIS/New%20Structure/Press%20Releases/2009%20Press%20Releases/Nov%202009/Attachment%20to%20Temporary%20Acceptance%20of%20H-1B%20Petitions.pdf)

BeautifulMind,
Since all of this has already happened, harping on what could had been done is useless. From my limited knowledge of immigration, I think you have no choice but to file another PERM and forget about your earlier case.
