Nice. It appears that according to the link below:
http://immigration-information.com/forums/showpost.php?p=18946&postcount=28
The EAD doesn't get invalid when AOS is denied and will be valid till its expiration date.
On the other hand, it appears that there is an advantage to switching to EAD prior to the 6 year H1 expiration to stop the H1 clock. In situation where a AOS is incorrectly denied, a change of status from EAD to H1 for the remainig time can be helpful.
Thoughts?
One more thing. Working on EAD can be preferred to both categories, ppl who has consumed all 6 years and ppl who haven't yet.
1. If you have consumed all 6 years, according to above link, can file MTR if 485 is wrongly denied due to AC21. EAD remains valid till atleast the appeal period. while if they are on H1 extension beyond 6 years, H1 is cancelled with immediate effect.
2. PPL who haven't consumed 6 years have an added advantage to come back to H1 and guess what, he can (if needed) start a new GC process while retaining his older PD (as his 140 was once approved, he retains that PD for life).
I found this by extremely intense research on internet, CIS website and many well-known lawyers forums, chats and discussion. However it is always advisable to consult your own attorney.

IV should work hard on defeating this bill. It will send a clear message to anti-immigrants even if the bill does not pass.
Just because we want our green cards does not mean we forget people on H1b or future H1Bs
Anti-immigrants do not differentiate us based on H1, L1, EAD, PD, ROW, EB3 etc. The bill is aimed at throwing all immigrants out. Period.

Hi All,
You know my old H1B case was reopened on Sept. 28, and the USCIS Emailed me that they sent a notice. But I haven't received such notice, my employer/attorney also didn't receive any notice. I wonder the USCIS didn't send this notice at all!
The best way to find out the reason for reopening is to call USCIS. But since this is a I129 petition only the employer or the attorney can get any information since USCIS will not disclose any such information to the beneficiary. If the previous employer agrees to call USCIS, things will be clear.

Today 10/16/2007 there is another update. Why is USCIS looking at my old H1B approved in August 2003 for an employer I left in 2004? I am perplexed!
Can you find out from your old employer ??

i could be wrong, but if i remember correctly, when this ruling was published last year, if a pending 140 was filed on labor subst that would get rejected.
An approved 140 with labor subst was ok.
Please correct me if i am wrong.

Thanks for the detailed information.
I have a unique situation here. My original GC sponsor (a multi billion dollar industry leader) laid me off after 6 months of I485 due to lack of position in the company.
I ported my GC using AC 21 and joined another small consulting company. Now my GC is approved and I have an offer in hand from another company.
Will it be a good idea to move or do I have to wait for 6 months or 1 year before I make an employment switch.
My most important consideration is that there is chance of potential loss of job (may god forbid) with the current position. I may be able to save myself by switiching job right now. And of course there is more money on the table.
You are not with your sponsoring employer anyways, so take the new offer if you want. A piece of advice though, for such critical decisions, it is best to spend some money and consult an attorney, rather than muck about on IV and such. An hours consultation ( which all you should need), will cost you u2 may be 3 hundred dollars, but you will get proper advice.

hi october2001,
Did you use PO box as address on I-485? I had heard USCIS does not accept PO box as address in I-485.
actually what happen The NBC sent my I-797 Welcome notice to my lawyer and one to me but because I was not on the lease I didn't have my name written on the mail box, so the mail man returned the notice to the sender (NBC) after that the NBC when they got back the welcome notice they re-opened the case so after that I got a new message saying the last letter we sent has been returned it is very important that we have the right address blah blah blah
and then my lawyer called and made sure they have my right address since I use a PO BOX for mailing purposes not my physical address
and then I got an online message saying we mailed the document to the address we have in our file or our system something like this
and after some day I got the Document they were talking about sent to my PO BOX: it is not GC but the Welcome notice that failed to get to me in the first place
so Document in my case is the Welcome notice
I really can not believe my eyes until I will see my GC in my hand
Hope the best to all of you thank you

Based on my understanding once 485 is filed, one can only get one year H1b extension it does not matter if one uses EAD/AP.
Q33 If I-140 is approved, 485 pending, still 3 yrs H1-B extension possible?
A33 Yes, if you have three years left fro original 6 years. If your 6 years are over and your 485 is filed, you can get only year to year extensions of H-1.

That was a great one jthomas. 100% agree.
Have decided to dump my H1 for good and start EAD on my new AC21 job soon.
Using H1B makes one safe. but how many years we want to do the safe job. If I-485 gets denied do u have enough patiences to file another green card. One thing is believe is "We are here to make money, most of us are in our thirties and we have short time remaining to reach our goals. I think we all have one year EAD. wait for 6 months then go on job hopping, learn whatever you can, get into whatever you want. Start a business, do something.... Anything you do will help you in future. Sitting with H1B in pocket may take 4 years cream of your life.
If you have the talent you can get great salaries anywhere in the world. Because of your talents and hard work you guys are here. World is not small.

Thanks, you are right. It's like the water bucket analogy. Put your hand inside the bucket, and then take it out, and you won't see much difference in the water level. That's how expendable we are to our employers.
A lot of people are indespensible based on employer needs and competition and skills. So you just have to find the right employer and concentrate on your skills.
Companies like MSFT and Google believe in retaining employees at any cost and taking care of employees in best possible ways. But getting into them will be competitive.
So it all depends on a lot of factors, company finances, employer attitude, bad luck, bad time, business going down, bad managers, problems in departments, co workers issuees, consulting company blues, immigration issues etc.. ................
The chances that someone goes through this situation is 100% and remember no one is "despensable" or "indespensable", it is all about how resistant you are to changes

A lot of people, including me have lost faith in IV. They are not going to pay. We don't know what IV is working on and we don't believe it can do anything. The sooner IV accepts it, the better. I have seen this personally in talking to people and you can see the evidence with less than 300 people contributing. IV needs to produce results first.
Before you ladies jump on me with your (p)curses for personal attacks, read on.
IV needs to figure out other ways to generate cash if it thinks that would help. One way would be advertising on the site. I think IV has built this website well and it is an asset it needs to use NOW. I believe IV can charge up to $10,000 a day for advertising on the website. That would be $300,000/month or $3.6 million a year. Even $3000/day would result in over $1 million. That should not be very difficult to do.
That I completely agree with. In fact to start with google adsense is good. I think IV was looking into it. But it did not happen.
I wonder if there was any reason why IV could not do it. If IV does it, it can generate additional funds, and with the number of visitors these funds can be significant.

ok........this is for all you jealous people who just cringe at the sight of India EB2 moving forward while your sorry EB3 asses are stuck.
go here and read, and educate yourselves.....good luck!!!
Sad to see your Schadenfreude. Anyway, the reason we other EB3s thought of a different distribution scheme is because of November's Bulletin 2005 (http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_2712.html)
The AC21 removed the per-country limit in any calendar quarter in which overall applicant demand for Employment-based visa numbers is less than the total of such numbers available.
Isn't it fair to ask for the reasons why the interpretation of the laws has changed?

Before this thread takes a turn where supporters and opponents of this idea start another forum war, let me say this clearly:
IV is not going to adopt this as an agenda item. The reason is quite simple: H4s not being able to work is low on priority of problems that need to be fixed in order to mitigate retrogression or other consequences of retrogression.
And frankly, we do not have extra kind of support to add new agenda items on our list.
A whopping 200 people signed up for recurring contributions of $20 per month. Out of 8000 people who registered here and got emails about it. However, almost every week, there is no shortage of new ideas and no shortage of opinions on those new ideas from people.
We get $20 deposits each month from 200 people. But as far as opinions are concerned, we get hundreds of them each week. How nice? I wish we had some machine to convert those opinions into dollars.
If you dont agree:
Now, if someone feels offended by this, and feels that H4 issues are orphan issues, or if this organization does not represent them anymore since IV does not want to adopt H4 related issues on its agenda, and if that someone wants to leave, then please leave without any threats and feel free to start your own organization.
And this thread has all the features and ingredients neccesary to become a forum war. If that happens this thread will be deleted.

On USCIS website I-130 is also pending along with I-485.
At I-485 interview IO said only thing keeping my freedom (GC) away from me is NC.
Does that mean I-130 is going to clear automatically once the NC is cleared ? or do I have to be worried about that separately?
