H1B Visa Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
The United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) has announced (http://www.aila.org/content/default.aspx?docid=32094) that several more forms will be transitioning from the Service Centers to the Lockbox Network. USCIS believes that by centralizing form and fee intake to a Lockbox environment, USCIS will improve consistency and integrity in the intake process.
The forms scheduled for the transition include:
I-140 (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=4a5a4154d7b3d010VgnVCM10000048f3d6a1RCR D&vgnextchannel=db029c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1 RCRD), Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker;

This transition has already started, as the Service Centers will be forwarding applications to the appropriate Lockbox facilities. USCIS plans to announce the address change sometime in June and will revise the filing instructions and update the web page for each form.

Folks,
My wife needs an EAD to apply for medical residency in the US. We have our EAD application pending (receipt date Aug 27th). We know we will get our EAD eventually. But the problem is more complex.
For medical residency, programs call candidates for interviews in Nov/Dec. So they start offering interview slots in Sep/Oct timeframe. If you don't have an EAD card or EAD-approval notice, they will not even consider you. They don't care if you say that EAD will definitely come by Dec (or something like that).
We tried our local congressman, but even he said he couldn't do anything
until the 90-day processing time had passed. We tried the local INFOPASS office and submitted an expedite request, but that got denied.
So we are urgently looking for ways to get my wife's EAD ASAP. If we don't get the EAD in time, my wife will lose an year and in medical residency, every year you sit at home counts (against you).
Does anyone here have any ideas what we can do ! Note: This EAD is needed for *education* purposes and not for *gainful* employment.

I'm an unmarried Indian national and came to the US on H-1B visa. My father petitioned for me in FB F1 category. My priority date is September 1, 1999. I applied for AOS in the US and received my EAD and AP. I recently met a girl doing job on H-1B(Indian national) and we will like to tie the knot in near future. I was wondering if it would have any effect on my AOS processing( I do not have the actual Green card yet). Will my category change to F3 if I marry her now? Any suggestions/ideas are welcome.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Isnt the three year extension valid only if you cannot file your I-485 because of retrogression? Once you file your 485, you get only a year?
1. Labor Pending for > 365 days = 1 year H1 extension
2. 140 Approved AND 485 Filed & Pending AND Priority Dates Current = 1 year H1 extension
3. 140 Approved AND Priority Dates NOT Current = 3 year H1 extension
4. 140 Approved AND 485 Filed & Pending AND Priority Dates NOT Current = 3 year H1 extension
I guess, you will be #4

I did change my address when my 140 is pending, i did take care of AR11 form and after that you will be given a screen for change of address on the pending applications, i did do that too.
After 3 days LUD was also changed with the new address change, i received a letter from USCIS about the change of my address on file.
My 140 also approved successfully on 08/15/2007

If you can go out of the country and return on L1 the new I-94 will take effect. COS should not impact, An attorney can advise better on this.

Join the DC Rally on Sept 18th.
with Presidential elections next year and new govt after that, there
is a greater chance that the legislative reform can happen only now
or after long time, may be like after 3 years. So act now or be
prepared to be in limbo for years ahead.
It is very important that we attened the rally and get ourselves out
of the probationary status that we are in. Probationary status both
in career and family life. The GC wait time could be 10
years if you have a PD of jan 2005 or later. Currently it looks like
we would be in this GC limbo for several more years unless we ACT NOW.
Imagine yourself living with the EAD/AP renewal, cannot really in all
trueness be able to work for and work on what you really want and
what your true potential is. Its just so nightmarish aaggghhh soooo
depressing... to remain in the same job designation and same
salary years ahead... for any person with self-esteem and self-
respect...
Lets get our Life back.
Are you not tired of this probationary life ? if you are tired of
AP/EAD renewals , If you have filed your 485 after 2-3 years of
wait , If you are stuck in FBI name check , if you are tired of
arbitraryness/randomness of USCIS's GC processing and approval...
This is the time to step up and help yourself.
Please step up and save yourself and your family from this waiting
game...

join.

Thank you very much for quick response. My wife has NO stamping in the passport but we have AP. Do you think a copy of I797 will be OK at POE?
Thank you very much!
If you have AP, I dont see an issue. Just take a copy of your I-485 and I-797...That should be enough....Also quickly print your last two paychecks.
I travelled with AP and a copy of I-485 receipt....Nothing else....

1) I got my first H-1 on 10/01/2006 ( I-29 date). When is the latest I should renew my H-1B visa
Answer: At least three months before your H1 expires.
2) I was a July filer and my wife is already using EAD (business). Does it make sense to renew her H-4 as well
Answer: No.. She is already doing business, which she can not if she goes back on H4. If she is making money then no point going for H4.
3) I was going to apply for AP for my wife? Will I loose my H-1 if I apply AP for myself too
Answer: As the previous member said, both are separate issue, so don't worry and just apply for her AP.
My two cent: You should apply for your EAD and AP as well...
