Short answer No. Long answer: it depends on when you will apply for 485. For example: you filed I-140 on Jan 1-st 2006, it was approved on Jan 1-st 2007, so it was pending for 365 days. You are applying for 485 when you child is 21 years and 364 days old - he is covered by CPA (Child protection act) and can file 485 as your dependent. One day later - he is not covered and could not file 485.
Hope it helps.
Yes, you have answered my question. Thanks.
One must consider this before deciding on premium processing. I took the PP route and got I140 approval in 118 days. Dont know if I will have the opportunity to file I485 before my child turns 21 + 117 days.
Thanks again!!

Due to the economic downturn there aren't many companies sponsoring GCs for employees. I doubt it would be more than 20 to 30k per year from now. This leaves 100-110k visas available every year for retrogressed countries like india and china
if there 300-400k pending GC applications in all categories then shouldn't all of us get our GC in next 3-4 years?
The downturn also causes 'GC pending' applicants to be laid off.

Hi
this is just my thinking but somehow I beleive that no matter how much we try explain our side of the story the issue of immigration whether legal or illegal seems to be an explosive one....so if anything has to happen then it just might happen if there is not much publicity about it. A lot of politicians might support us if it will not create a huge buzz...
lets see and hope

I don't think it is true. My lawyer said using AP will not invalidate H1B.
I have seen many people saying they came through AP and extended H1B , some even 3 times.
Anyway, I am travelling outside and planning to use my AP while coming back. I will post a message if I come through H1B
Thanks Buddy !! PM me when you come back plz.

While we can seek IV's help in this for future.......
If majority of the people
- dont want to be involved with IV action items,
- can not overcome their obsession about receipt notice and FP notice and EAD/AP approval...., and anxiety attacks about visa bulletins
then there will be a time where there is no IV.

My lawyer tells me so. Also, the bulletin you cite is very old. Most people stuck in name check, for which BTW there is a separate thread, will coroborrate what i've said.
The bulletin is 2 years old (if that is considered old, given the GC standards). However, no new bulletins have followed to void it. Unless I have been advising with the wrong lawyer and wrong GC applicants (many), there is no such thing as I-485 Approval before the name check is completed. Any third party would like to comment?

Welcome hopelessinseattle!
I live in Seattle as well.
You are right. They do not tell you likely because employers enjoy the idea that people visa dependent many times turn out to be "more productive" for the company. This is just a nuance, but I can speak from my own experience that I used to work longer hours and demand less when I was on H1B. It is a fact.
Only time will tell. There is no lawsuit angle to be explored against this as far as I know.
It is interesting what other members reported about people being in denial, even when you clarify about the difficulties about the greencard process. I had my own brother coming here and his employer talked big about greencard, etc and he started making plans to bring his wife. I told him everything we have been through and he didn't pay attention to it. In the end it turned out that his profession was not even eligible for H visas.
Good luck to us all. God Bless America.
Tito
This is absolutely the truth. I think that's why some people likened H1B to "slavery"... The only difference is probably you have choice to not come under H1B, which may even disguise H1B's true nature further. :o
Maybe IV can also help spread the words about the whole H1B and GC thing to people who are thinking about coming here... not exactly as rosy as some people thought. Hopefully when people know more, they will make more informed decisions. :p

Thanks everyone for being patient and supporting us. The work is happening at all ends and it is an uphill task.
We really need to increase our membership. Higher membership will mean us looking tall when we meet lawmakers. Please all try to help us spread the word of IV to everyone you know that is stuck in retrogression. We represent at least half million people but we currently not even have 6 thousand members. Thus we have to bring lot many people into IV. I would encourage everyone to pls. register on this forum instead of being visitors.
Pls try to help us increase our membership in your own capacity, in any way you can. This is something everyone on this forum can help us with.
What is current strenght of IV? I have not seen the number changed or updated for long?...Any update on Membership count as well as funds will be appreciated

I just came back from india. Flew via Frankfrut (Lufthansa). Lufthansa was bad. Frankfrut was dirty, no customer service, service Reps are rude. Next time I will avoid Frankfrut. AND I will not pay a dime for transit visa. period.
American airlines was trying to stop me boarding the plane as the CSR was not aware that if someone has AP they would not need transit visa in Frankfrut. I had to fight and make them call Frankfrut to confirm.
Might not be pertinent but American Airlines food was horrible and tasteless. They were running out of food.

She should have tried through the emergency quota/appoinment to get her stamping.. Death in immediate family is a accepted for this and I know a colleague you had to go for India for the very same reason, death in the family and returned back after getting his stamping. Got his appointment through EQ. If you fear to get stamped in India, then you can blame the appointment to be 4 months away, etc.. etc...
The article posted is touching, but out lives are not that bad .. We are far more better and we do have a good life.
I do not think one would not go to India just because he/she is scared to get a stamp in India. The loss of someone dear to you can overcome any such fears one might have (for me atleast thats applicable).
In any case, I did not know (neither did my collegaue) of the emergency quota. Thanks for sharing that with us and thanks to forums like these, every day is a learning experience.

There is a section in 485 application to list your spouse and dependents. Talk to a good lawyer to see if you can still add her. Or you can live in india until you figure out a way to bring her here on student visa or something.
Wouldn't the OP and his wife need some kind of visa to live in India until he figures "out a way to bring her on here on student visa or something"? I did not realize India was such an easy transit country especially for people of non-Indian origin.

I am in the same Boat. My PD is May 26 2004. Mine and my wife's case was transffered to Des Moines Iowa on March 19th 2008 and says its for additional processing. I applied for EAD renewal on June 11th and no approvals yet. I called uscis and they say that my ead would not be approved until the additional processing on my 485 is completed.. I am guessing it would be an interview.
Not necessarily in the same boat, although in the same pond.. :) In your case if the email says 'additional"processing and clearly indicates the DEs Moines office then it might very well be for an interview. In the case of ABH though all it says is that it was transferred to a USCIS office for "standard" processing, which could be as simple as USCIS mailing the packets from CSC to NSC.

Champu,
I saw some of your suggestions in this thread. I need your suggestion on my case. I applied my 485 in July 2007 with an already approved eb3 I-140 (PD: May 2004). At that time, my 2nd EB2 I-140 was also in process but since I was not sure so I applied 485 with eb3 I-140. Later, I received my eb2 I -140 approved with the same PD of May 2004. Thus , I was able to capture my original PD (most difficult task!!). Since then, I and my lawyer have been sending letters to USCIS to interfile my eb2 140 with pending 485. We have not heard anything back from USCIS so far. I had opened congressional enquiry also and they also could not get answer from USCIS. But, congressman office told me that USCIS indicated that they will take most favorable 140 while adjudicating my case. They also suggested me to talk to them again when my pd is current based on eb2. Can u suggest as to what else can be done in this case? I appreciate your answer in this regard. Thanks for reading this long message.
