Yesterday I e-filed my EAD and AP renewal for me and my wife but I think I may have messed up a little.
1) I forgot to save the confirmation receipt( pdf) for me and now I cannot get it anywhere. I did save it for my wife. I belive I need this along with the supporting documents. How Can I request the confirmation receipt from USCIS
2) I did not find any instructions come up for the list of supporting documents that need to be sent. Should I send the supporting documents (based on what I saw on this site) anyways?

DS 157 is required based on age of the applicant ... your dad may not need but your mom need it ... pls check the vfs site for age range for DS 157 ...
hope this helps
HI,
I recently booked an appointment for visiting visa for my parents through vfs, during the process , I first entered my Dad's details and then his ds 156, then It asked if I wanted to add additional family members, then I entered my Mom's details and her ds 156 . After that it asked for my Mom's ds 157 and never showed my Dad's ds 157.
So the final list of documents it generated was :
Dad's ds 156, Mom's ds 156,157 , interview letter.
Is this correct, does my dad need ds 157 and interview letter or is 1 ds 157 and interview letter enough ?
Thank you for your time.

So step children get the same benefits as dependants. Good to know. I guess if it wasnt so, someone would have raised some issue about it by now. Atleast there would have been a bill in congress.
After marriage he will be your step-son and is eligible for L2 dependent visa.

YOu might have already tried this - pls try emailing any school association there (Indian Students Association) - that might turn up good contacts. They are a couple of good universities out there like Chapel Hill...
Thanks for the suggestion but We need people who are stuck in retrogression. Professionals who have a story to tell. They should be IV members too.

Recently I renewed my Advance Parole (AP), USCIS renewed it for 9 months only. Is it possible to check with USCIS to get a 1 year AP.
Thanks!
You must have applied 120 days in advance or many days in advance before old AP expiry. USCIS issues AP from the date it was approved so you tend to lose some months. I have heard some other members include a cover letter which says AP start date should be from date of expiry of old AP. Since you already got the document, I doubt you can do much about it. You may lose 2-3 months just trying send it back and requesting it to be corrected. I guess next time when you renew keep the cover letter in mind.

With the elections changing the senators..we have to contact the new senators to pass our bills..so we need to write to new and important senators to pass the Bills...I was wondering if anybody had a list of new senators and thier addresses so that we would write a letter...sign in by hand and post...I have allways seen that sending sending Fedex is better that sending 37 cents stamped letter...but at least we should send in the 37cent letter..

The lawyer should have received the receipt of I-140. It would be best to ask your lawyer a copy of the I-140 receipt for your record. Using the case number from the I-140 receipt notice you could check the status of your application online at:

yes, in general as per law, you have to file tax returns to both states.
But most of the desi-employers try to use same state that they used first part of year and continue with that till end of year. But in the next year, they start with new state. This happens all the time with most of the desi-employers. There is no problem. You are not skipping any taxes, it is your employer's responsibility. If your employer says, he is working here and paying state taxes, then thats it, nobody can't say/argue anything.
:confused:
It is partly my fault as I should have noticed when I started a new project in end August in South Carolina.
But now looking at my W2 it shows that my employer has been filing taxes in my previous state Missouri for the entire year. How should I go about correcting this? I was in Missouri for 5 months and in South Carolina for the remainder. In which state should I file my tax too?
Any help will be greatly appreciated

Hello everyone,
I was scheduled to go to an I485 interview(PD: March 2006) at the end of this month.
Here is my situtation, my H1B was expired at 08/15/09 and I renewed my expired EAD(expired in January, 2009) on 07/30/2009. However my previous employee laid me off on 08/31/09. Before I got my new EAD on 11/18/09 and started my new job on 11/23/09, there was a period of time(from 09/01/09 to 11/22/09) that I was umemployed without a valid H1B or EAD.
Is that a big deal when I go to the interview? If it is, does anyone want to provide any advice?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Andrew

Hi,
I have a question regarding changing L1 to H1-B visa. If someone comes to US on an L1 visa can he/she change to H1-B visa without going back to India and getting the new H1-B visa stamped? What is the process to remain in the US and changing the status from L1 to H1? Will
Again, I assume that in order to change from L1 to H1-B the H1-B cap rule applies.
Yes, you can do a change of status (COS) from L1 to H1 without going back to India for Visa stamping. Your H1 will come under the annual 65,000 H1 cap, as you might know the cap of this year is already over, you can apply for this COS come April 1 2008 and you can start working October 1 2008 with your H1. Please note you CANNOT start working for a new employer by just receiving a receipt number for your COS. You will need to get the actual H1-B approval notice. While applying for the COS you will also need to show you are currently employed and this can be done by submitting two most recent pay checks along with your other papers. Hope this helps!!

There is nothing you can do now. You cannot change the past. Realistically there is only a very small probability that it will become an issue at 485 approval stage.
Even otherwise, this was Employer's responsibility, not yours, to keep your LCA updated.

I am currently on EAD and applied for I-485 in July 2007. My category is EB3 India.
I am also maintaing my H1-B status with current company. My priority date is December 2005.
As you all know about the situation of EB3 India and how long will it take to get to December 2005. I want to change the job as I am not getting paid as much as I am supposed to get considering my experience. I am also looking for some change and new opportunities.
So my question is if I get a contract job through a staffing agency and will be working for another company on contract and may be I get permanent after few months or may be not. Is it possible to work on contract for a company through staffing agency using my EAD? I never worked on contract my entire career so don't know anything about it.
What will I need to do or say when I go to staffing agency or the company I will be working for? what is the process?
Please advice as I know many of you have done this or know all about it.
Note: My wife is also on EAD( we applied for I-485 seperately) and not planning to move from the compay where she applied for GC.
Thanks in advance for the advice.
