Ensure that you have at least 90 days between the date you apply for I-485 and the TN expiry date.
TN is basically a non-immigrant visa so in case she tries for TN renewal after her I-485 has been applied, the TN will be denied. I suggest the 90 day period because you can apply for her EAD along with the I-485. EAD needs to be adjudicated within 90 days by law (I think...assuming that there are no RFE's). That will help in avoiding taking any leave from her job.
If there are less than 90 days I would suggest renewing the TN first and then applying for the I-485/EAD/AP.
Hope this helps.

As we watch the earthquake destruction in Haiti with horror, one group of individuals that will likely start to get attention is the population of Haitians currently in the US and who are obviously not going to be able to safely return home anytime soon. US immigration law actually has a system to handle precisely this situation. It's called Temporary Protected Status and it is available to individuals who are from country suffering armed conflicts, disasters, or other extraordinary conditions. The Secretary of Homeland Security is empowered to determine which countries are on the TPS list. People in TPS status...

While we look at this from an immigration and DHS rule making - in reality, there is large scale devastation and catastropic loss of life.
Lets pray for the victims and lets all contribute in all possible ways to help the people of Haiti.

My perm was filed in May 2007 in EB2. Got RFE in July 2007. Replied within 2 weeks. No response since then.
Can I do anything from my side. Is there any way to contact/request DOL to inquire about the case.
They are aparently processing audit cases dated September / october 2007 so yours seems strange. I have no idea about how to contact the labor department. Hopefully some one who knows will point you in the right direction.

Friends,
A unique situation -
I am getting ready to apply for my wife's AOS (ROW). She has never used a last name on any legal documents, example birth certificate, passport.
Her H4 visa was processed with "FNU" - family name unknown .. Do I need a last name for filing her I-485? Can she get a GC with only her first name on it?
Or will they process it with FNU as last name...
Should i go to her embassy (Indonesia) and get her passport changed to my last name before applying for her 485? In that event, her H4 visa,passport and birth certificate will not match her passport..
Any thoughts on my situation?

Hi,
I am on H1B visa staying in Missouri state and my employer location is the same county. I recently got a project outside Missouri and client worksite is in Arizona. I am expected to travel Monday to Thursday from Missouri to client worksite but not required to move to Arizona. In this case where I am travelling does my employer need to file for LCA amendment? I have come across posts that if you move to a new worksite you might need LCA amendment but not sure in this case where I am travelling every week.
Your quick response would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

1. Send all AOS forms and proof of pregnancy from the doctor. They will issue RFE or you can send medical after the delivery. Don't take risk while on pregnancy. RFE reply will get 30-45 days time.
2. If your current visa is not expired, you can delay in filing I-485. Just file I-130 now.

hello,
My question is about getting the visa after 6 years. I know that you can apply for 1 year extentions each year until your case is closed. We have applied and were approved. Our attorney said we had 2 choices to get the VISA issued.Either we go to our country and get it or we can go to Bahamas for a day and get it. Apperently, Bahamas and US has an agreement and they do it very quick.
What happens if we do not get the VISA stamp on our passports? I mean we are working and do not want to leave the country,dowe still have to get the actual VISA? Do we have a problem next year when we apply for extention if we do not get the visa stampped this year?

Hi,
I just want to know as to will the Green Card process happen faster if the State of GA were to sponsor it?
Request you to reply soon.
Thanks
I dont know of anything specific.But if it's a job designation of utmost importance at the state level then it might help in name check(I am not sure) but otherwise I dont think it makes any difference.
Just my 2 cents

I mean should it be only Software engr in the exp letter rather than Sr Software engr, since the labor says Software engr ?
What is the position mentioned in the LC for your previous job? IMHO, it does not matter what the title is. As long as the job description is the same, you should be OK.
I had "part time Oracle developer" in the LC but the letter I got just said "Oracle developer" and mentioned that is was part time (20 hrs/ wk). I don't think it is such a big deal.

USCIS has recently published a new fact sheet of common questions and answers for members of the U.S. Armed Forces and their families. (http://www.californiaimmigrationlawyerblog.com/Immigration%20Information%20for%20Members%20of%20t he%20U.S.%20Armed%20Forces%20and%20their%20Familie s.pdf) The fact sheet contains the most frequently asked questions that USCIS receives.
The fact sheet is worth reading if you are in the Armed Forces because the answers to some of the questions are different (and usually more advantageous) to members and/or dependents of those in the Armed Forces. For instance, if you are a civilian, obtained your green card through a marriage to a U.S. Citizen and you have been married for less than two years, you must file Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=f858d59cb7a5d010VgnVCM10000048f3d6a1RCR D&vgnextchannel=db029c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1 RCRD) to remove the conditional residence and obtain your permanent green card. You must file this form even if you intend on applying for citizenship a year later. (Persons who are married to U.S. citizens may apply for citizenship in three years.)
Members of the armed forces do not have to file Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence to remove conditional residence obtained through a marriage to a U.S. Citizen, if the foreign born spouse was inducted or enlisted in the military and is applying for naturalization based on qualifying military service. Thus, military personnel are permitted to "skip a step" and do not need to file form I-751.
Additional questions and answers and helpful email addresses to USCIS liaisons are included on the fact sheet.

You can continue your work with Employer A. Just ignore about B.

Got a 221g (pink) from Chennai consulate because I have a Phd in biology. After almost 4 weeks the status on the website was updated to 'submit passport'. I have a couple of questions. If anyone who has gone through a similar situation, can answer, I would very much appreciate it..
1. I have been asked to submit the passport to VFS. How long did it take for passport to be returned with visa.
2. I have already gone through the security clearance. Do I need to go through PIMS clearance again?
Please...appreciate responses from those who have gone through this themselves..
Thanks. Man..this has been an ordeal....
