Topic: I-94

If you want him to stay for few more months you can apply for extension. The extension application date has to be prior to the expiry date of I-94. He can stay till he get the extension approval or denial notice legally

Topic: Can he get a GC thru me ?

Even if you add him as your dependent (assuming that your priority date is before him) he will have to go through the same set of checks. So it may not help much but may weigh you down

Topic: H.R. 5882

hi Naanyaar
I see waiting for GC has some benefits. You are becoming philosopher (naanyaar) and reading lot of Sidhar padalkal .Keep it up. I went almost insane before getting the GC

Topic: Regarding travelling with AP



It would be better to enter on H1 and continune to work on H1, if you are not using EAD, you donot need AP. but if you enter on AP you will have to start using EAD.




You are completely wrong , if someone enters on AP ONE DOES NOT NEED TO BE ON AN EAD , HE OR SHE CAN STILL BE ON H1 STATUS , please check the facts , dont give wrong information here




Franticsky is partially correct. You can come back Using AP and your H1B is still valid as long as you work for the same employer. You do not need to use the EAD but you will lose the privileges of the H1b. What it means is if your 485 is rejected for any reason you have to go back ( off course you can contest the rejection) but in case of H1B you are still legally work in US in spite of rejected 485. This is the only advantage of being in H1B. There were many postings here as well as moorthy.com

Based on your name you might have applied at Chennai. My friend is from Hydrabad and had to apply at Chennai for H1B Visa extension stamping

Topic: Does traveling out of country delay i-485 processing

International travel does not affect the approval. I went to India in January for 4 weeks and my family went to India for 4 months and came back in March and all of us got approved in mid May
