AllIzzWell, as the_jaguar has suggested FOIA is the only way. And yes that helps, some times FOIA requests might take longer, so request it ASAP to get it quicker

Guys,
Here is a hypo situation, which I am sure we will be interested to know.,
What happens to a Wife's status on EAD, if the husband's 485 is in trouble, when both are working on EADs. Isnt her case independent once she also applied for 485/AP/EAD, or will there be a dependency,
Thanks

but in this case the H1b stamp on my passport is still valid and not expired.
i am entering on nov 11th. stamp expires on december 1. why i am worried is just because the stamp is still of old employer whereas 797 is of new employer.
port of entry may ask me why didnt i get the stamp again when it is just expiring after 20 days ?? U know....
There will be no issue in entering US as you got the visa stamp till Dec 1st 2007.
Visa stamp is just to allow a person to enter US. They don't care whether it is with current employer or old employer. They just need valid visa stamp and latest I-797 approval notice of same classification. I.e. if you have H1B visa stamp and you need to have only H1B approval notice. You cannot have B1 visa stamp and use H1B approval notice.
There will be no issue. As a precaution, carry all original old approval notices also.
They will give I-94 with the end date there on latest approval. Thats for sure. But just check what date he/she is putting on I-94.
Good luck.

I got a bunch that has photocopies from my lawyer of everything that went out to USCIS. 485, EAD, AP for myself and my wife.
Everything is ok, except that there is an extra copy of G 28 each for myself and my wife and these extra copies are not signed by attorneys.
In the middle of the package, right above the 485 forms, there are G28 forms that are properly signed. Everywhere else there is signatures where needed. But at the bottom of the bunch, there is extra G28 for each one of us that is missing signature from the attorney.
Could this be a problem? Also, where is the URL for USCIS FAQ that states under what conditions that petitions can boomerang back to us?
You are totally fine. According to the I-485 standard operating procedure, page 10, the following are the instructions for the mailroom person :
"Verify the G-28 for original signature of attorney and applicant. If
only one copy has been submitted and you have concurrently filed
applications, photocopy the G-28 for each application and initial
the copies with your employee number. Annotate the processing
worksheet".

That was a hard working moderator who seems to have disappeared off of the face of the earth in early June 2006. I don't think he was abducted by aliens, because he is one.
I wanted to start this thread in members only, but it wouldn't let me.
Thanks.

It is good to know that BerkleyBee is doing well.
Infact, I became a member after watching BB's presentation on IV.

Now that you have your answer, let me ask you a question -
Are you going to write to the lawmakers/president today, or are you going to sleep for now and wake up a year later?
I hate to break this to you, but your sense of optimism needs a reality check.
Thanks you very much. Anyways it going to take atleast a year for these to go get over if at all. And if by any chance if its made current when both are done, wishful thinking but being optimistic is better than nothing.

What happens if your W2 is higher then the prevailing wage? Like $22K higher?
Look at my past posts. I asked this question some time back and people said it should be OK. I got an RFE and the lawyer did not seem to care that my current salary is much higher than the LC.

Silly me, I did it the hard way, hand held. :confused:
P.S. Jeff, don't feel bad, I started out with one of those cheap Wal-Mart tripods too. Now that I have a good one the old cheap one comes in handy for my remote flash. So don't throw it out you may be able to reuse it one day.
