What do you mean? I thought we can only get it stamped outside US.
That is what my attorney kind of said as well. The thing is there is really no
"start date" on the visa stamp so clubbing the I797's is effectively the same
as honoring the second I797 (as far as the date on the I797 is concerned).
My only concern in that case if the officer at the port of entry has any issues because of the two I797's.
Are you planning to get it stamped when you are outside US?
I just talked to my attorney and he says that the US Embassy will club both the 797 dates and give you a combined visa. I still would like to confirm it with other sources as it sounds too good to be true.

GCN007,
Here is what I replied to the congressman's inquiry mail:
Thanks for your help.
But as it is evident from the mail...they are not at all sincere in their reply. If receipt date is the issue then I won't have been approved either and nor would hundreds of my friends and colleagues who have got approved having receipt dates after me. Also our receipt date is July 23rd 2007 as is in the receipt notice from TSC and TSC is currently processing Mid -August. So TSC is not even looking at her case and just sending you a standard reply. This is the same reply that I received on opening a service request at TSC, I had hopes that they would treat inquiry from Congressman's office with more due diligence.
All I need to know is what is holding her approval and if anything we can do to fix. I have got that" to wait 90 day' reply last year also. Let's see what they have to tell about the FP/Biometrics.
Problem is I can't even leave the country without the green card now that I am approved but god knows when I will get that...All my colleagues at work have got their physical cards for their entire family in mail and that's what hurting me about the inconsistency of the way they treat applications.
The Congressman's office were decent enough to reply:
I understand your point. Let�s see what TSC comes back with on my fingerprint question.
I am not sure if I can contact any other congressman, someone like BFrank I guess has more influence but he does not represent my county.
Yesterday, I sent mails to the President and Janet Napolitano....Futile of course...but I feel better that at least I did my part....
SoP

Pankaj did a great job... And it was awesome to hear him sing. So much so that even Congressman McDermott commented that he sand better than the congressman himself.
Three cheers to Pankaj.

I just don't understand one basic question.
Congress is trying to pardon 12 million illegals as a one time measure and give them Green Cards. (OK - Very good)
On the other hand we are about half a million who entered the country legally and helping the U.S. economy and paying taxes. Why don't they consider giving all of us Green Cards as a one time measure too ?????

I don't believe it...did you guys even read the original thread? He is asking about being laid off while on EAD while you went on a tangent about H1B status, buying furniture and rental lease!
Also, poorslumdog, who told you that you that "once you are in EAD and got laid off...you lose your status"?
The only person that makes sense on this thread is ramaonline. Javadeveloper, since you've filed your AOS, you'll be in legal status with or without a job. You don't even need to have a job now...GC is for a future job offer. EAD has nothing to do with it. Has it been 180 days since you filed your I-485? If so, your I-140 is safe since your employer loses "control" over it. Because your I-140 is not approved, using AC21 to port is quite risky but this may be your only path.
One last thing, I hope things work out and your employer re-hires you BUT you really have to assume that they won't and plan for you worse. Remember no one cares about your GC more than you...

IV should publish backlog examples such as this one to the media. This person has waited for over 7 years to get immigration benefits from the govt!!
Maybe I am missing something here but the green card for this beneficiary was started in 2005. The PD of 2000 is due to a labor-substitution. Aren't those the facts here?

Some scenarios to consider
1. If 140 is approved and its been 6 months since date of 485 application and your company who sponsored is not revoking 140, then ability to pay might not matter and you don't care since you can use AC21
2. If 140 is approved and it has not been 6 months since 485 application date and you are on good terms with and your employer is not going to revoke your 140 , take an unpaid vacation to fill the 6 months gap if you can, then you are still safe to use AC21.
3. If your 140 is not approved but you have passed the 180 days litmus test and you use AC21 to move to another employer then the ability to pay might come in to picture if any RFE is done by USCIS.
4. If 140 is not approved and you have not passed 180 days its a variation of the 2nd case and if you can pull it off you can use AC21 and work elsewhere later.
there might be other scenarios but consider each of them carefully before making the decision. While it might seem a simple decision having come so far in your journey you don't want to make as wrong decision only to rue it.
- good luck
Hello Krishnam
I have a I-485 pending, and there is a chance I may be laid off after 180 days. Would I have to have another similar job offer at hand, or can I still continue looking for a job after 180 days of I-485 till I find one ?
Thank you for your help.

I agree with you map_boiler. I have also seen from some other thread that some one with EB3/India/Apr 2004 PD got approval in July. If the July bulletin is void , How can they approve that ?
You are right , It looks like they approved cased with NO PD but with ready FBI check and also requested numbers for the current PD but sec check pending.
If a APR2004/EB3/India can get approval after Jul 2 , How can they reject EB3/INDIA/DEC2003 but filed on Jul2 ?
Returning numbers raise whole lot of questions. It remains to be seen how they try to untangle this mess.

Thank you all for information. I confirmed with our lawyer one more time
here is the response
"It is the combination of her I-485 receipt and the EAD that demonstrate her current status of adjustment applicant. If the admissions people are confused they need to talk with their foreign student advisor who should be well versed in this stuff. She is no longer an F-1 and therefore not subject to any F-1 rules �
I guess it's up to the school to determine if they will allow her to finish her degree on AOS/EAD. some of you suggested ..school can make rules. We suggested to school that that other school do allow partial course load in certain situations. They say it may be true ..but they don't have that policy.
If they don't allow her..i don't see any option but to fork up 7-8K. It would be great if you can provide me an official document /link indicating she can study during AOS.
Do you see any problem if I say please go ahead and report it to INS ? I don�t see any problem as long as they allow her to finish her degree.

That is expected based on the number of I140s that would have been approved and ready for adjudication. Also, with priority dates moving forward, more applications from earlier dates come into play and the processing dates move back.
Hopefully, they start moving forward soon and go over the July / August 2007 hump.
With USCIS what isnt odd! :).
I managed to find the NSC processing time archive from AILA - http://aila.org/content/default.aspx?bc=1016|8767|6739
See the 485 EB based processing timeline.

This means that even processing dates go back and forward like priority dates! I dont think the July status is posted yet, but this definitely is interesting.

Why is this topic being discussed. masters, no masters, eb2/eb3/ India vs china vs world. Who cares?
Do you think the politicians or their staff understand these nuances? do they understand any of the steps? I140/i1485/labor? NO. And nobody cares.
FOR ONCE, if we all get united and rally behind IV, NOT GET DISTRACTED, WE CAN ACHIEVE SOMETHING FOR EVERYBODY.
There is a golden opportunity right now for once to eliminate all backlog
Please take the action item seriously and after you have sent emails out, Please encourage others to do the same.
Then take appointments at your congressman/woman/senators office next week. Ask them to support the two ammendments to the DREAM ACT. That is it!!
Do not talk about any other issue while at the appointment, the message we need right now is for them (the lawmakers) is to support those two ammendments, DO NOT DILUTE THE MESSAGE By adding/confusing them with other related issues or personal issues.
Imagine if we all are united and stuck to the message, next week and week after if there are hundreds (wish thousands) of us going into our lawmakers offices and asking for these -just two ammendments. The message will be loud and clear and they might just get it.
Imagine this vs the second scenario where members go in and are inconsistent and talk about all the problems in the Immigration-Universe- EAD Delays, Masters, H1/EB3/EB2/QUOTA?. They will not understand any of this and it will confuse them thinking each one of us has a small unique problem-
That is why we need everybody to be consistent and focus on the message. It will make them take notice and gain their support.
