Thanks, snathan.
Is not it strange that IRS processed the tax refund before completing the ITIN processing? They could not confirm the current status of my wife's ITIN processing, as they could not pull out any details about the W-7 based on the information provided by me. They only guessed that it might be still undergoing processing. I wonder if they misplaced the W-7 form or something like that :-(.
Hey Dazed,
How much time did it take you to get the refund?
Thanks,

Yes even our received dates are different, mine was Sep 28 and my wife's was Sep 27. Receipt #s are SRC07285**** and SRC07284**** respectively.
For me and my spouse [derivative] only the last 2 digits differ. I got approved from TSC on 8/8/8 and received the card on 8/15/8. My spouses status still says:
Current Status: Case received and pending.
On September 28, 2007, we received this I485 APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
PD: 3/3/6

Since you have an approved I-140 through your previous employer, the PD is yours to keep.
Has the attorney requested USCIS to port to the older PD when they filed your pending I140 application? Also, since you're in 6th year of H1B, it might be better to request premium processing on the pending I-140, get it approved...confirm that PD has been ported, and then apply for I-485 before end of August. Move quickly, and good luck!
I was searching on internet and this is what i found on Murthy.com.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Recently, the Nebraska Service Center (NSC) provided instructions on how to notify them regarding an earlier priority date (PD) when filing the I-140 and I-485 for an individual. It is possible to transfer a PD from one employment-based green card case to another, filed for the same individual, if the first case has reached the point where the 1-140 petition has been approved. Similarly, it is possible, in certain limited situations, to transfer a priority date from an approved I-130 petition to a later family-based filing. On occasion, however, it is difficult to make the service centers aware that the beneficiary has an earlier priority date.
The NSC, on June 14, 2005, provided instructions for a person filing a petition and requesting an earlier priority date based upon a previous case. A brightly-colored, flagged sheet of paper should be included to indicate that there is an earlier priority date. A copy of the prior I-797 Approval Notice of the I-140 petition should be inserted directly behind the brightly-colored sheet of paper. Though the NSC did not indicate where this should go in the filing, it is generally best to put such requests on the top of the filing or directly behind the cover sheet, to maximize the chance that it will be seen and acknowledged. This will avoid a rejection of the file, based on the priority date not being current, and a needless delay in processing the new filing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is that mean i can file I-485 with my previously approved I-140? I have also drop an email to my HR regarding the same. We do not have direct access to Attorney as every thing has to be directed by HR.

Hello,
You have no idea how I am desperate and will appreciate your help.
I basically get a 0 1 visa to work for a first employer. Then I get another job offer and leaved the first employer who revoked my initial visa.
The new employer was supposed to apply for a new visa for me but he never did it. He get debts problems and laid off half of the company including me.
My only visa has really been revoked so I really overstayed 7 months.
Today I got another job offer with a new sponsorship so I saw several attorneys and some of them said nothing was possible to do and some said it was maybe possible to fix the overstay.
Today I have to take a decision, go thought this new job offer and take the risk to never get the visa and then the job - or forget about it, leave the US right now and think about the USA in 3 years.
Please help me - what do you think I should do? Is it really impossible to get an overstay waiver with a new petitioner?
Thanks a lot for your advises
As you overstayed more than 180 days...you might be barred entering the US for 3-10 years. But there is no other option for you..
Good luck

This is about I-140 and Premium Processing. In 1998, there was no premium processing. Looks like you have no idea. Where do you come from? are you a stealth user? are you betsy ross?

This is under ideal conditions. How many 485 has complications and how many are not arranged properly. They have to consider everything. Just to get the papers right for review might take several hours. In between, they may be called for meeting, smoke break, tea break. So give them some slack. Two applications per day is good enough work for an employee considering each app has one or two dependends.
Last but not least, the ex-director or USCIS is an anti-immigrant and was member of an active anti-immigrant group. Now you go and figure how USCIS will work. Even if numbersusa is good enough to take 10% of USCIS into their org, we are screwd and they are doing it already.

Hi All,
I received an RFE on my pending 485 application:
Here is my case:
I am a derivative applicant working on my own H1
Here is the content of the RFE:
1. Please submit a properly completed form G325A. Submit all the documentary evidence to support your employment history listed in form G325A.
2. Clear copies of form W2 wage and Tax statements
3. Complete copies of properly filed Tax returns (IRS Form 1040)
4. Any additional document which confirms your employment history.
5. You must submit a currently dated letter from your intended permanent employer, describing your present job duties and position in the organization, your pre-offered position (if different from your current one) , the date you began employment and the offered salary or wage. Form letters are not acceptable. This letter should be in original and signed by an executive or officer of the organization who is authorized to make or confirm an offer of permanent employment. The letter must also indicate whether the terms and conditions of your employment based visa petition (or labor certification) continue to exist.
I can easily provide all the docs above (from number 1 to 4) but I am surprised why I am asked to provide a letter from my intended permanent employer since I am derivative applicant.
Anyone else in the same boat? please share your experience/ suggestion.
Thanks!

I agree, if you have applied for I-485, F1 is not a good idea. I wasn't aware of the OP's GC situation.
Editing post: It seems that the OP applied for I-140 late last year, and the country of chargeability is India (public profile). So, in this case, F1 is probably a better bet.
All other points are on the dot!
Only F1 being better than h4 is really depending on one's situation..
F1 is Non-Immigrant intent status.. meaning, if you apply for 140, or even have LC applied and USCIS finds out.. you can forget abt getting visa..
Secondly, F1 has become much restrictive since implementation of SEVIS.
H4 on the other hand is duel intent
Major advantages of F1 would be
1. Possible on-campus 20hr work authorization and later OPT authorization.
2 Chances of getting assistanceship.
So it's not black and white..
and if you've applied for 485.. F1 is really definitely not the way to go..

We should just be asking for relief on waiting times, ability to travel freely, and change jobs.
Unfortunately, this requires a complete overhaul of the immigration system; not minor amendments. For instance, if we want the ability to change jobs freely that is really asking to de-couple the whole H1-B/GC system from our employers. You know very well how things work with current law: EVERYTHING related to our presence in the US; whether that is the work visa, LC or even the PD is OWNED by our employers.
I do agree that increasing visa numbers does not make good PR for our cause.
But the only quick and non-controversial fix (without increasing visa numbers) that I can think of is recapture and ability to file 485 without a visa number.
However, we cannot shy away from explaining how our problems can be solved .. after all average americans have no clue of how their country's immigration system works; if we dont do the explaining the anti-immigrant groups will do that for us with their own interpretation.

Google for FASA and try to fill in the application for federal aid online. It will most probably be rejected as federal government does not provide loans for foreign students. But you need to fill in this to apply for loan in any major banks like chase, bank of america or wells fargo, salli Mae etc.
After you get rejection from FASA call any of the major banks and try for a loan. If you have a guarantor in United States with good credit score the loan will easily get approved. Even if you dont have some guarantee, just call these banks and give it a try. Who knows, you may be lucky and you might get a loan.

Hi
Can you please confirm from your lawyer , if the A# shows up only if your 140 is approved or do you get one as soon as you have the receipt number . The reason I ask is , I saw an A# on my 485 forms that my lawyer filled and its the same number that shows up on my EAD and FP . However my company won't tell me if my 140 is approved or not .. so trying to decipher...
Thanks
tinoue I will suggest talk to lawyer,
As per my lawyer, If at the time of filing of I-485 , you already have I-140 approved , you are supposed to write A# I-140 on I-485 Application.
Otherwise they might assign New One..
If you remember on I-485 Application there is place for A#.
