I have recently renewed my passport in Washington, DC. As I stay far away from DC, I get it renewed by post. It took exactly 40 working days to get the new passport. I remember, you have to select a date while filing the application form. So, dont wait... apply asap.
Hi all, My passport is going to expire next month (November 28th). I can drive easily upto DC consulate .. wanted to know if there is anything specific I need to do. The website (Embassy of India - Washington DC (official website) United States of America - Application for a New Passport or Reissue of Passport (10) years (http://www.indianembassy.org/index.php?option=com_content&id=167)) does not mention anything about "walk in to consulate" information.
Specifically,
1. Do I need to call and book appointment ? If yes, is there a minimum waiting time to get an appointment, like how many days before ...
2. Will I get the renewed passport the same day ?
Any other points/instructions that you think are important please let me know.
Thanks in advance for your help. :)

Hi,
I recently went through same situation for my spouse on H4. You have 3 options:
1. Call the CBP office where you got I-94 or local CBP office (You can find in Internet, mostly in International Airports) and request them to update thhe I -94. Which may or may not be possible technically. But you may try calling them and schedule an appointment and try this option.
2. Go out of country and come back.
3. File a I539 form to extend non immigrant status. Your employer should help you file it or you may file yourself. It should go to same USCIS service center or office which approved your H1 or H4.
Disclaimer: I am not a attorney. This comment is based on my experience. Please consult and attorney for any legal advise.
For H1b you cannot file I 539 but need to file I 129 which will cost lot more. I guess going out of country and coming back is good option. if you live near border area.

I opened a SR on July 24 2008. My priority date was going to be current starting Aug 2008, but still representative was kind enough to open SR for me . Guess at that time they were not getting bombarded by volume of calls.
It is almost 20 days and I have not received any response. CSR say it takes upto 45 days to respond.
- Did any body get a response back on their SR
- How much time it took to get response
- What format response is - Email / Letter / Call (are there any LUD's also)
- What is the content / detail level of response [Considering most of us are opening SR for case status and pending NC]
Thanks in advance
[ I am reposting this thread because in previous one I made mistake in subject, and didn't know how to edit it]

Hello All,
My first I-140 (EB3) got denied and is pending in appeals office for more than 1-1/2 years. Since 140 was denied my 485 was also denied.
Later we filed new labor (in 2009) and 140 (EB-2) and got approval after 8 months.
My questions are:
1. Can I file 'motion to reopen' for 485s based on new 140 approval and use the previous priority date (which is 2004)?
2. If not, can I file motion to reopen 485 based on old 140 (which is pending in appeals office) and later if they are open, can we link these 485s with new 140?
Please advise.

My date will be current from September 1st. Is it okay to travel to India on a short trip while the date is current? If 485 gets approved while I am india, can I still come back on advance parole?
One of my friends did this his green card was approved while he was away, he did not face any issues in returning or converting to GC later.

Here are a couple of videos from the Milpitas meeting.
It's really important that we all make our best efforts to attend the DC rally. Our life, and those of our children and families, depend on this.
Are you prepared to live for the next 10-15 years on EADs and AP? Ready to renew those every year? Limit your career growth and job prospects? Limit what you can and cannot do? Limit the raises you can get?
There's no reason to be scared to attend the rally. Leading immigration attorney Sheila Murthy supports IV and the DC rally, and encourages all those who are affected to attend.

I just came across the following article, which analyze in depth about the anti-immigration groups, their stratergies, bases and the clout they have. Though some of the names seems neutral, the intention is really not.
I think it is essential for us to know the entire backgroud, if we need to fight our cause.

$930 plus a biometrics fee of $80; the fee total is $1,010. Exceptions listed below. There is no fee for applicants who are filing Form I-485 based on having been admitted to the United States as a refugee. Applicants 80 years of age or older are not charged a biometric fee; the fee total is $930. Applicants under 14 years of age: - Filing with the I-485 application of at least one parent have a fee total of $600 - Not filing with the I-485 application of at least one parent have a fee total of $930
I would assume that EAD and AP have to be paid for separately.

Considering the state of the economy and considering that the most important poisiton to save is that of the primary applicant, I suggest that USCIS process cases of primary applicants asap.
Family members can contnue on EAD for long time; however if the principal applicant loses job and can not find another one, the entire family is done - pack bags and leave.
What do you think?

I was looking at status of my EAD I applied on 15th October'2008 online at TSC.Status shows that my card has been ordered for production on 31st October.I received letter for Biometric appointment on 5th November. I went to ASC on Saturday( 11/1/2008) and had my fingerprinting done.
How can they order the card on 31st october when my biometrics were done by that date and my appointment was set for 5th Nov 2008 ? Anybody faced the same situation? I had gone for finger printing for I-485 this January.
I got FP notice for my EAD one month after I got my EAD in hand.

Just make sure at the Port of Entry to show the officer your most recent approval notice and be sure to carry a few pay stubs from your present employer.
Otherwise shouldn't be a problem at all with the visa stamped valid till next year.

hi,
i have a question whether to use EAD or H1B? Initiallly i re-entered into usa after finishing my first 6yr term of H1B in June 05 on H1b. Later changed employer. New employer filed my GC using existing labor (EB3) in 2006 and also filed for i-140 & i-485 in oct 2007. so the transferred h1b is expiring on 06/2009. my ead expired in Oct 2008. I am thinking of renewing EAD than H1b which i am planning to file in this month (Feb, 2009).
questions:
1. If i go back to India in Mar 09 - Can I come back using EAD (Once its approved and someone sends my EAD & AP to India) as i haven't used EAD?
2. my transfered H1b is expiring on Jun 09 and i don't want to go to Madras to stamp the transfered company's visa on my passport as i doubt to get it - the Consulate might ask me so many questions when its expiring in june why you want to go to usa for 3 or 4 months.
3. The best bet - do i need to wait for my renewal of EAD & AP and then leave?
Please let me know as my travel plans are dependent on this.
thanks and appreciate your prompt response
thank you.
I would go with 3. Wait here until AP approved and then leave the country. I didnt hear good experiences with mailing AP out of country.

All those were paid by India (or other countries), we led unproductive part of our lives in India (or other countries)and contribute to US economy.

With EAD, or AP for travel, it is important to apply renewal of documents exactly 120 days prior to current document�s expiration date. If you file the renewal application earlier than 120 days prior to expiration, the USCIS may deny the application. In your case, if AP expires July, then return before the date to avoid issues. Plus, if EAD is current, then there should be no problem with entering U.S again. I am out of work and not risking it with out of country travel. Check with lawyer. That is important. Two years back, I returned with AP and faced questions at the airport. Check with lawyer before leaving. Why we do these hoop is known only to the almighty. Better to love someone here and settle with life. I am exhausted with all such documents. I have delayed marriage for GC.
