Similar situation...
I am getting married in the 1st week of Sep and am planning to get my spouse by mid Sep.
Can someone please suggest if I am fine, if I apply alone for I-485 around Jul30(and not for EAD and AP??) and add my spouse around sep20th. I-140 approval is pending and have a valid visa till '08.
How long does it take for the I-485 'approval' and is 2-3 months a safe window to add ones spouse?
Any suggestions and help with my planning are greatly appreciated. :)
I am in a similar situation. I am getting married in July 4th 2007. (What a day to loose my independence) in India. I am planning to come back and file my 485 before July 30th. My spouse is going to endorse her passport and come soon after, but won't be before Aug 15th. I also wanted to know what was the time window after my filing that I could still add my spouse. I have approved I140, PD is Nov 2006.

Hi friends,
I am from south east Michigan just like everyone else here standing in the never ending line of gruesome and crippled immigration system.
Let us come together and help IV achieve our goals.
It is high time, that we ask for what we deserve. And it wont come unless we stand up for ourselves.
thanks....

Most probably Reid would bring back CIRcus back on senate floor on May 25 .... :mad:
Remeber that if Reid decides for cloture first and after that amendment then very high chances of passing this bill in senate because Cloture needs 60 votes but passing a bill needs simple majority i.e. 51 votes ...
Core, what is our action plan, support any single amendment and by doing that support entire bill or oppose entire CIRcus?

Got the receipt numbers already, was worried about the physical receipt notice.
"Physical receipt notice" is not necessary. As long as you have the receipt numbers, it is fine.

This is great I guess the decision to hire a strategic counsel is clearly proving to be right..
laborlabor,
Yes without a strategic counsel, do you think we would be able to walk into White House and get the lay of the land with respect to immigration.
How we're able to continue this relationship is really upto all you members. It is really up to you to contribute monetarily and also by getting your friends involved in this.

I have been there. done that. As soon as ported labor applicant using AC21 moves on & finally gets his GC, his labor cannot be ported anymore; even though you filed to use his labor before he obtained his/her GC.
Mind you, I used labor substitute not from a shady consulting company but from a reputed nasdaq listed company & had top lawyers appealing and proving my case. No use.
I think AC21 & labor substitution fundamentally had these issues where they could not co-exist. Since labor substitution was prone to abuse anyway. It was done away with. Good riddance to bad rubbish I say. Just I had to spend 3 years in limbo. What can I say - only solace is that there are others who are worse of than me.
Move on. Theres no point appealing this denial of I140.

EndRetro,
If anyone from this group is visiting India in the near future, it might be helpful if you can arrange an audience with Ravi.....and make him aware of the concerns/issues..
What does the IV admin group have to say about this!?

I have bunch of colleages who have filed 485 two years ago and they are all saying you can take different responsibilities. I thought they would have done better research on this one as they are at that stage. May be they are wrong.
I beleive their 485 is status is at "pending approval". Does anyone know what could be the possible final status for 485 during retrogression? This may be the decider for both AC21 and existing employer role change. Can anyone confirm this one?
If your 485 is filed and you have spent 180 days after that, then the AC21 portability allows you to change employers and change job locations but not the job description.
Even after 180 days on 485 stage, you can use EAD to change employers as many times as you want and get jobs in different cities/states but the job description should be the same -- which means that you cannot except promotions because promotions do change job descriptions.
I am pretty sure about this part and I have verified this part of AC21 portability with a lawyer before.(make that a very reputed and smart lawyer)
You may want to check this part before accepting that promotion.
For the derivative beneficiary, like the spouse who gets EAD because of primary applicant of 485, there are no restrictions though.
