We are family of four and have the following status
Self - Adjustment of Status (AOS - 485 filed in July'07), AP, EAD and a valid H1 (renewed recently)
Spouse - AOS 485 (filed in July'07), AP, EAD, H4 expired end of April 2010
Son 14 yrs. old - AOS 485 (filed in July'07), AP, H4 expired end of April 2010
Daughter - 11 yrs old - AOS 485 (filed in July'07), AP, H4 expired end of April 2010
Does my family have valid status? Specially my kids since they don't have EAD. Shall I renew their H4 for valid status? I was in the impression that if 485 is filed then there is no need to renew H4. Please advice me. I am totally confused.

Friends,
LUD on my I-485 (TSC) had not changed for the last two years and I now find a soft LUD of 09/15/2009. Has anyone experienced recent LUDs on their pending I-485?
I am asking because I am wondering whether USCIS has really 'touched' my file or if this is just a regular 'batch update' that happened to all applications, may be because of the new website migration.
Appreciate your answers.
Thanks.

Hi all,
I am in a confusing situation would really appreciate some suggestions.
I am the primary applicant and my spouse is the beneficiary for the 485 applications that were sent on July 07. I have received a RFE on my 140. My PD is 12/2004 EB3-India.
My spouse company may be willing to apply for her under EB1C. I have a few questions:
1. Can she apply for 140/485 simultaneously? (I heard concurrent applications are not possible)
2. Can the existing 485s be jeopardized by the new 485s?
3. Do we need to go in for FP and do our Medicals again if we apply for 485s again or are they going to reuse what we have already sent?
4. Do we need to withdraw the existing 485s at some point of time
5. Is this worth the hassel of complicating the applications?
Please help!

My daughter (5 yrs) is an US citizen and having passport valid until end of Sep 2009 and having POI card for 15 years from Indian consulate.
Now I am planning to take her to India for 3 weeks from Aug 1st week. The travel agents says her passport should have at least 6 months valid from the date of date of the return (Aug 4th week). Is that true/correct? Can she enter here in USA after her India visit with 20 days left in the passport validity?
I will be using my AP though I maintain H1B status (I-797) and work for the same employer.
Thanks for your reply.

2. Will my application fall under the cap exempt or will I be subject to cap limit
3. If the above fail, what other options do I have?
Pls guide.

Hi Guys,
I used to work for company �a� which was a part of the bigger company �A�. There was another company �b� which was a part of the bigger company �B�.
Now both companies A and B made a joint venture (JV) and made company �c� joining company �a� and �b�.
Company A has 25% stake and company B has 75% stake in JV(Company "c"). The new formed company "c" has �new name�, all employees filed �new employment applications� and have �offered a new employment� with the new company �c�
Now my question is as this company �c� is totally �new�, can I convert my EB3 case to EB2 and use company �a� experience and file for EB2 with company �c�
Thanks,

Hello,
Recently I applied for AP. It was approved on Oct 20, 2009 but when I got the document from USCIS I found that the effective date of my AP is from 12/20/2009 to 12/19/2010. My question is,
1. I want to go to India on 26th Nov and return on 20th December. Some of my friend told me that I can travel between 12/20/2009 to 12/19/2010 not not before 12/20/2009. Is it correct.
2. My understanding was I can go to India before effective date which is 12/20/2009 and can return on or after 12/20/2009. Is this correct.
Please respond as I want to go to India on Nov 26th 2009 due to some emergency.
Thanks
Regards
Sachi

Bet on India (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/07/28/AR2007072800999.html) The Bush administration presses forward with a nuclear agreement -- and hopes for a strategic partnership. July 29, 2007
IN LARGE PART, modern U.S. nuclear nonproliferation policy began with India. India received U.S. aid under the "Atoms for Peace" program of the early Cold War era -- only to lose its U.S. fuel supply because India, which had refused to sign the 1968 nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), exploded a nuclear "device" in 1974. Decades of U.S. noncooperation with India's civilian atomic energy program were intended to teach India, and the world, a lesson: You will not prosper if you go nuclear outside the system of international safeguards.
Friday marked another step toward the end of that policy -- also with India. The Bush administration and New Delhi announced the principles by which the United States will resume sales of civilian nuclear fuel and technology to India, as promised by President Bush in July 2005. The fine print of the agreement, which must still be approved by the 45-nation Nuclear Suppliers Group and by Congress, has not yet been released. But the big picture is clear: The administration is betting that the benefits to the United States and the world of a "strategic partnership" with India outweigh the risks of a giant exception to the old rules of the nonproliferation game.
There are good reasons to make the bet. India is a booming democracy of more than 1 billion people, clearly destined to play a growing role on the world stage. It can help the United States as a trading partner and as a strategic counterweight to China and Islamic extremists. If India uses more nuclear energy, it will emit less greenhouse gas. Perhaps most important, India has developed its own nuclear arsenal without selling materials or know-how to other potentially dangerous states. This is more than can be said for Pakistan, home of the notorious A.Q. Khan nuclear network.
You can call this a double standard, as some of the agreement's critics do: one set of rules for countries we like, another for those we don't. Or you can call it realism: The agreement provides for more international supervision of India's nuclear fuel cycle than there would be without it. For example, it allows India to reprocess atomic fuel but at a new facility under International Atomic Energy Agency supervision, to protect against its diversion into weapons. The case for admitting India to the nuclear club is based on the plausible notion that the political character of a nuclear-armed state can be as important, or more important, than its signature on the NPT. North Korea, a Stalinist dictatorship, went nuclear while a member of the NPT; the Islamic Republic of Iran appears headed down the same road. Yet India's democratic system and its manifest interest in joining the global free-market economy suggest that it will behave responsibly.
Or so it must be hoped. The few details of the agreement released Friday suggest that it is very favorable to India indeed, while skating close to the edge of U.S. law. For example, the United States committed to helping India accumulate a nuclear fuel stockpile, thus insulating New Delhi against the threat, provided for by U.S. law, of a supply cutoff in the unlikely event that India resumes weapons testing. Congress is also asking appropriate questions about India's military-to-military contacts with Iran and about New Delhi's stubborn habit of attending meetings of "non-aligned" countries at which Cuba, Venezuela and others bash the United States. As Congress considers this deal, India might well focus on what it can do to show that it, too, thinks of the new strategic partnership with Washington as a two-way street.
