I recently asked my employer to provide me with a copy of the I-140 Receipt Notice. The company's attorney told my employer that she strongly recommends not giving me a copy as I could leave work with the I-140 Receipt notice. Is it true that I can't leave work even though it has been past 6 months since my concurrent filing if I dont have a copy of the receipt notice?
Will the approval notice for the I-140 be mailed to me by the USCIS or to our company attorney's? What can I do to make sure that I have all the paperwork required if I were to use AC21?
Thanks.

If each state in India were a country
There would have been no backlog.

I had asked this question to the immigration lawyer at IV. She said that if you are working for the same company at their offices aboard & go for Consular Processing ( it is the only option as you can not go 485 route) it should be just fine. However, if the company that you are working for when you are abroad and the company that did your GC are not the same thenit is almost impossible to prove that the job exists when you arrive in USA after CP.
It is an interesting question i am also worried about. I was told by my company attorney that i need to file I-140 asap as USCIS is in process of changing how long you can wait with approved LC before filing I-140. Once you have I-140 approved, basically you can come back to the US on an H-1 to work for the company (you will need a new h-1, even if you have a 3 yr. extension based on approved I-140). Then if and when the priority dates become current you should be able to file for I-485

We got a $1 million dollar, 10 year term life insurance policy for both me and my husband....mine costs us $22/month and my husbands costs us $25/month. You do have to go through a blood test (at their cost) for any policy over 500K.
We were very happy with the service they provided.

Yeah.. the list of supported documents on that link is still ok. However, really speaking those are too many documents and most of them are "just in case" documents - 4 pay stubs, 3 or 4 W2s etc. etc. But anyway...

Agreed.
Unfotunately, there is no way to poll more than one option.
More than Salary its location which matters.

Hi, what can be the cause of rejection ? Last time I checked filing for extension will be ok if the applicant travelled oustide US.
please advice ...
Technically, your H1 petition can be approved but not your H1 status as you have left the US (simply put this means that your H1 will be approved but will not contain an I-94). If you have not filed I485, this means that you need to have a valid H1 visa stamped in the passport to enter the US. If the I485 has been filed, then you can use AP to enter the US, but at this point it is not clear if the H1 is valid for work or not (I am talking about your case specifically - not in general as people who have a valid H1 have entered the US on AP and continued to work on H1). Better to ask an attorney for guidance.
Per USCIS, an extension of H1B with an extension of I-94 can only be approved if the person is in the US. Once the applicant is no longer in the US, change of status (COS) or extension of status (EOS) will not be granted by USCIS - although the underlying petition may be approveable. But then again we are talking about USCIS where sometimes (or most of the times depending on who you talk to) the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing - so you may actually get you H1 petition approved with an EOS.

Is there anyone out there pursuing CP and already working in the USA?
In today's economy/job market, it is a nightmare not to have the protection of EAD.
Is there anyway we can get EAD for people in CP queue? Issuing EAD for those CP filers who are already in the US on work (H1B) VISA - is that even a possibility?
Any thoughts?
Looking at your PD it will take a while to get green card in either route. CP is great when dates are current so you can easily get GC . but when dates are not current AOS is good becasue dependetns can get EAD and also little more security than not having EAD.
CP is done by Dept of State ( Consular Post ) and AOS is by USCIS. They are totally different agency under umbrella of DHS. CP cannot get benefit of EAD.
For you it will not be easy to be in both place now. It will be option for person lets say like me whose date never became current and I when I filled I 140 I mentioned CP. I think it take 1 year to route your application to Consular post. so later if my dates become current and my application is not at consular ( Means I am not going to get interview ) I can file AOS. But person already have file CP for more than year then if dates become current he / she will get interview.
For mumbai consulate there is option for AC I 140. where consular accept Attorney certified copy of I 140. So if I believe that my PD will become current in coming 2-3 months then I can file I 824 and ask to route my I 140 to Mumbai for CP. which takes 1 year atleast to finish . but in meanwhile my date become current I can take receipt notice of I 824 and go with attorney certified copy of I 140 and they can grant me visa. But it needs very sound planing of when date become current. ( Which is not possible in current environment ). If dates are current for a long time CP is good.
Now you dont have even option to get EAD so I would say stick with CP.

You will just need the AP for yourself but make sure you return before the expiry date of the AP and not the I-94 any issued or stamp in the PP. For the baby you can use 1 of the 3 options available - Visa/PIO/OCI. Hope this is helpful.

I have got EAD and AP.I think i would not have got them if the 140 is not filled.
I also know the date on which he filled. but employer is not sharing the receipt because there is no mandate for him to do so.
I wanted to know is there a way out.
Did you try calling USCIS customer service number? You just have to get lucky. Some customer service people are nice & some are just plain rude. (I have had both experiences just today )

Thomson,
I think you should probably consult a good local immigration attorney who should have some access to the IO or his supervisor so that the AOS is not improperly denied. I don't know how useful an infopass appointment would be. That can vary greatly from office to office.
If the AOS is denied, you can refile or you can file a motion to reconsider. There are significant filing fees for both, as well as delay.

My attornies (big firm...working for Fortune 500 company) says that dates could retrogress anytime i.e. on 15 July 07, dates could move back several months and the chances of that happening are very high. My advise is to have your spouse cut the vacation short and return asap...! You need to file ASAP.

so can anyone confirm this 'no FP if filed via paper' thing?
As for mailing address, I guess if I do courier the package they all have the same address (N. augustine rd). So in that case, I can send them all in the same packet.
thanks.

I have a friend...He had H1 stamped on his passpost when he was with company A..He changed job went to company B...He went to India...Got married..Got his wife's H4.. He did not go to restamping for his own visa stamp..They came back to US....This is firsthand I know....His own H1 stamp is still company A stamp...He could reenter the country..He is working for company B...
You can continue using your old H1B visa (from company A), with an I-797 from company B as long as the H1B visa is valid. Same applies for H4 visa.
But both H1 & H4 visa holders would need new approvals (I-797s).

I don't have copy of I140 . My H1B extension is based on I485 is bending more than 1 year. (If your 485 is pending more than 1 year then you will get one year H1 extension but some how i got 3 years)). Did you file your 485?

I am currently on EAD and used AC 21. Just in case if I suspect that there might be some issue during final I 485 approval, can I have my company apply for my H1 transfer before I 485 is approved?
If I do so, what will be the status of the I 485 application after H1B transfer?
This is a bit confusing question to answer but if I apply for my H1B transfer now, what will be its validity date?
All help appreciated. Thanks all in advance.
I thought if you invoked your AC21 - you hopped on to the pending-immigrant boat leaving the non-immigrant boat altogether ... and that boat is now gone ...
To get back to a non-immigrant boat .. you may have to get a new one ... but in that case you'll have to show your intent of non-permanent stay in the US ... which your 485 would contradict anyways ...
A better option would be to have your legs in both the boats for as long as possible - i.e. transfer your H1 (and not get on to your EAD) while your 485 is still pending.
I may be wrong .. but this is how i perceive it
Peace.
