All aplications have to be post marked before Aug 17th and not sent before Aug 17th...

consider a scenario :
Postmarked : Aug 10 but did not reach until Aug 18 th ..will they deny it...? No

so waht all they care should be postmark date and that should be with Aug 17th 11.59 p.m ... thats what my assumption is ... so far with my lawyer , i was discussing the fact i get my approval on Aug 17th 5 pm what to do also ... he never told me anything otherwise ... pls clarify if anybody has any other insight...

Great NEWS guys ....

check the latest faq released by USCIS ..

Q36: Will USCIS accept Schedule A concurrently filed I-140 petitions and adjustment of status applications that are filed on or after August 1, 2007?
A36: As previously stated, USCIS will accept properly filed Forms I-140 filed on behalf of aliens with a priority date on or after August 1, 2007; however, pursuant to August Visa Bulletin No. 108, USCIS will reject any concurrently filed adjustment of status applications filed by aliens with a priority date on or after August 1, 2007.


****USCIS will reject any concurrently filed adjustment of status applications filed by aliens with a priority date on or after August 1, 2007. ******

Does this mean they accept I-485 application for aliens who is having PD till July 31 2007 ...

Can anyone confirm with their lawyer ???
(reply) (report this)
Posted by ps57002 (421) 08 Aug 2007
YES .... if your PD is July 31st or before, you can file up to Aug 17...they have to get application on Aug 17, not 18th though....but anyone with PD 31 jul or before qualifies to apply for I485...that is confirmed by uscis already per their FAQ 1.

dubukku, Welcome to the forum.

"Does this mean they accept I-485 application for aliens who is having PD till July 31 2007"
It means that if you have your LC approval by August 17th and your PD is on or before 07/31/2007 you are eligible to utilize concurrent I-140/485 process.
(reply) (report this)
Posted by dubukku (8) 08 Aug 2007
Ok. Got it. I thought that we can file 485 even after Aug 17 if we are having PD on or before Jul 31.

Hi Dude,

My employer filled I140 last week, As they denied to file I485 concurenly.
They said will going to fille I485 after I140 is appproved.
My PD is March'07, are USCIS accepting I485 application after Aug' 17 because my PD is Mar'07.
Can you guys confirm this please?.

Thanks
(reply) (report this)
Posted by ps57002 (421) 09 Aug 2007
I think your employer is playing games. You won't be able to file i485 after aug 17 for a LONG time, years. Doesn't matter if your PD is Mar 07 as that won't be current again for a long time. I 140 approval will take a long time it seems, you need to file the I485 before Aug 17.

These seem to be process for filing I 485 if already submitted I140.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Q38: Where should an employment-based adjustment of status application be filed if the underlying I-140 petition remains pending with USCIS?
A38: Forms I-485 may be filed at either the Nebraska Service Center or the Texas Service Center in accordance with the Direct Filing Update issued June 21, 2007, regardless of where the pending I-140 was filed. Applicants should submit a copy of the I-140 receipt notice or, if the applicant does not have a receipt notice, include a brightly colored sheet of paper on top of the filing with the following notice and information:

TO THE MAILROOM: The enclosed I-485 Adjustment Application(s) should be matched with a pending I-140 Immigrant Petition for which no Receipt Notice has been received. The Immigrant Petition [type, e.g., I-140] was delivered to [Service Center] on [provide date of filing and tracking number]; Petitioner's name; Beneficiary's name; Beneficiary's date of birth; Beneficiary's country of birth.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________

Dont let your employer fool you. I 140 approval will come long after aug 17 and you will miss out on aug 17 deadline. You can use the "will help me get longer H1B extensions and help in travel ease" etc to convince them. I485 is simple form, you can fill it out yourself and have everything ready and convince them with all you have to allow.

Cholan,

USCIS will not accept any applications after Aug 17th.

Don't miss out this oppurtunity. We are stuck at the mercy of the analysts working on the case and we have no way to change the outcome. But you have a golden oppurtunity. Pester them enough. talk to your manager, director whom ever possible and file 485. They would definitly understand your situation. Let them know how important it is. If they don't listen and if you miss the oppurtunity then I would say there is no point working for them.

GOOD LUCK >>>

----Bad news guys----, just check the link here and read this FAQ # 10
http://www.uscis.gov/files/pressrelease/EBFAQ1.pdf

Q10: Will USCIS accept employment-based adjustment of status applications under July Visa Bulletin No. 107 if the priority date is August 1, 2007 or later?
A10. No.

Priority date according to USCIS is the date when I-140 is received by them.

We lost it guys... I confirmed this with my lawyer too... Your Labor must have been approved by 31st July and then E-file 140 same day !!

Can this we confirmed ? I googled it and everywhere I am hearing the same thing... Somebody pls confirm...

smwarriar,

It is for NIW (National Interest Waivers) who doesnt need Labour Certification and can apply directly I-140. So for them I-140 filing date is the priority date.

Cholan,

I strongly recommend that you to talk to Murthy.com or Immigration.com lawyers today to see if you can apply I485- by yourself.(It may cost couple of hundred dollars but that's peanuts at the point where you are)
You may need only I140 information from your company.

DO NOT TRUST YOUR EMPLOYER!!!!!!!

Good Luck and God bless.

They told that it is still in process and they cannot let me know the time frame. I am happy atleast they called me back. She was polite in answering. I am glad they replied to the phone message.
