Topic: how to convince lawyer to send email to TSC
anyone has link to any authentic website that talks abt the streamline processing at TSC.
I want to convince my lawyer to do the extra step. As usual she never responds so may be a link to USCIS or AILA can help.
thanks
There is no authentic site which carries that information. I am wondering why Murthy.com has not mentioned about this streamline. Anyway, refer the following AILA link:
http://www.aila.org/content/default.aspx?docid=6727

Topic: Loosing Job While you are on EAD
Most of the time, the processing date displayed in the website is just a reference. They can process the application anytime, as long as the PD is current. I am afraid, usually USCIS take more time to approve the application coming from your country. I believe the fingerprint check/FBI namecheck/background check process take long time for iranians. Anyway, there are lot of people who have got their GC without having a job in hand and receiving a RFE for EVL. I truly wish you to be one of those lucky people. Good luck.

Topic: Loosing Job While you are on EAD
Alwayshopeful,
You can be without having any job in hand as long as your PD is not current and I-485 is valid. As soon as your PD become current, for the safer side, it is better to have a job in hand. What happen is, USCIS might issue a RFE for EVL(Employement Verification Letter) before they approve your I-485 application. You will have to respond to that RFE with an offer letter, job description, role in that position etc. USCIS issue RFE for EVL on a random basis; so it is always better to have a job in hand when your PD is current or going to be current.

Topic: Project Ended. 485/140 Pending
Sorry to note that your project is ended in this difficult economy and job market. As long as your I-485 is valid, you dont need to worry about leaving US. I-485 is to adjust your current legal status. If your I-140 is approved and I-485 is being in pending for more than 180 days, then yes you can join with a new employer. If your new employer is willing to sponsor H1B, then you dont have to use the EAD.

Topic: AC21 - Quick Reference !!
Tomcat,
1) From the beneficiary point of view, there are again many theories on AC-21. Some people believe that we should inform the USCIS when we leave the GC sponsor. Others believe it is not necessary. Very few people believe that AC-21 is the memo for USCIS officials and not for the GC applicants and that AC-21 letter sent by the GC applicant would be discarded by the USCIS and not be considered at all (Refer the http://www.trackitt.com/discussion-forums/i485-1/52081629/ and know that I-485 has been denied though he used AC-21). The GC rule is to consider if the intent of the employee to work for the sponsor and employer to provide a job was good or not. You don’t have to come back and work for the GC sponsor.
2) Unfortunately having a pending I-485 application for more than 180 days is not guaranteeing the GC card. Remember, the I-140 could be withdrawn by the sponsor AT ANY TIME (even if it is approved). If I-140 is withdrawn, then all the related applications such as I-485, EAD and AP would be invalid. Yes, there could be some lucky beneficiaries who might get GC approval when they are not having any job in hand. Anyway, USCIS randomly issue RFE for Employment Verification Letter before approving the GC application. The response for that RFE would include the offer letter from the employer, job description etc.

Topic: AC21 485 denied what to do?
This post is a best example of USCIS is not soliciting AC-21 letters. I still believe that AC-21 is the memo for the USCIS officials and not for the GC applicants[who dont have to inform USCIS about the job change using so called AC-21)

Topic: AC21 - Quick Reference !!
tomcat,
1) All the employement based GC's are based on the future employement, even though the beneficiary currently works for the GC sponsor. So, yes any one can use AC-21 with the approved I-140 and I485 pending more than 180 days.
2) should work 2 years after the GC approval? No way...that must be a 'desi company' contract with another 'desi employee'. There are some theories on 6 months period. People who believe in the theory fear that the issue might come up when they apply for citizenship. While filling up the application for citizenship, there is a column for your last 5 year employement.
