My wife is in the same boat. We filed for H1 amendment in the first week of September and online status tells it's done on 20 November. We still have not received documents in mail from USCIS. This was in Vermont. We were told initially that it might take upto 3 months.

We recently assisted a client from Johannesburg, South Africa, regarding an H-1B specialty occupation visa. He was approved for an H-1B visa, but in order for our client to enter the United States, he must obtain an H-1B visa in his passport. Because the chances of visa issuance vary greatly depending on documentation and individual circumstances, we suggested that he go to the interview at the U.S. consulate very well prepared. We told him to take a certified copy of his entire H-1B package that was filed with the Immigration Service, along with his Form I-797 Approval Notice. We also suggested that he take original birth certificates, marriage certificate, and proof of financial support. He attended the interview this morning and his experience at the U.S. consulate in Johannesburg, South Africa was documented as follows.
“My wife, myself and our son had our interview at the U.S. Consulate here in Johannesburg this morning, at 9:00am. We duly arrived at 8:30am, had our relevant DS documents checked at the door, took a number, and waited for the “call.” At promptly 9:00am we were called to a booth, where our fingerprints were taken, the DS forms checked with the original I-797 form, and then told to go and sit down again. 10 minutes later, we went back to the booth, had our fingerprints taken again, and that was it. All visas approved, and to pay DHL the delivery costs. No questions asked, no documents asked for, no requirement of proof of copies of documents, nothing. All in all a painless and easy task.”

What is minimum duration at which one must get paid at I-140 rate after GC? (after which rate can safely be lesser)
Thank you.

Thank you frostrated and madmonkey for your responses. We had taken infopass and were able to speak to immigration officer too. That is where we were told there is nothing like linking or interfiling. I read the pearson memo multiple times but it says both dates must be current. EB2 is not current and hence do not know the validity of the claim. I will try infopass again and see before filing MTR.

Thanks for the reply.
What if, only H4 holder (AOS pending) returns to USA using valid (till Dec' 09) H4 stamping ? Do they (at POE) come to know that spouse's 485 has been approved ?
H1 holder (485 approved) will return afer couple of days.
Urgent please help by giving your suggestions/opinions/experiences.

Hi, this is my first time in the forum and I wish to seek advice on my situation.
I'm a green card holder (singapore citizen) who got married while being a US PR. I wish to apply for my wife (singapore citizen) a green card.
How long is the typical wait?
See visa bulletin. Your case is Family Based (FB) 2A. Currently, it is at 01APR06 (i.e., the applications that USCIS received before 04/01/2006 are eligible to be approved). You need to study how quickly the dates move by going through VISA bulletins in the last 3-4 years, but my guess would be about 5 years.
Visa Bulletin for March 2010 (http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_4659.html)
while applying, is it true that my wife can't enter the US?
AFAIK, not on the basis of her GC application, but if she gets another (dual-intent) VISA, say H1B, then she can enter US.
I kind of know the answers but would like to confirm with this forum. I know the situation can be pretty bleak.
Many many thanks,
After 5 years of being PR, you can become US Citizen. After you have become a US citizen, your wife's GC application will no longer be subject to a quota and she should get GC within a few months (processing time).

Hi Gurus,
Please suggest me the best option as i am still undecided.
My employer terminated my employment when I lost my job with the client company during 2nd week of June 2009. Before termination, my employer filed my GC and I have my EB2- 140 approved (PD- Feb 2007) and also My previous H1 extended last year 2008 and they have issued my visa for another 3 yrs (3rd term in H1). Since then I am without job and looking for an opportunity. But to be on safe side I left the country before the 30 days of my termination. I came back to US on H4 visa (so that I will be in-status and my GC won't get affected).
Now i am getting an opportunity for a FT position with a company and now I am undecided what to do? If I took the FT with a new company and then my GC process will start from beginning (applyng labor and then once approved (don't know how long it will take to approve labor in EB2) I can then file for 140 porting my previous approved 140 -eb2 with PD Feb 2007) or Just wait until I find a contract job and go through my previous employer and continue my GC process from where it is left.
Currently the PD for EB2-I is in 2005. So should I wait and go smoothly with my previous employer (but still we don't know how long it will take) or go with the FT.
Please suggest me.
i am badly need your advice.
Regards

Guys,
I'm in kind of a tricky situation.
I currently work for a consulting company who is sponsoring my GC.Our client has offered me a full time position and I was planning to use AC21 to switch over but better sense prevailed over me to continue with my current employer to avoid any issues in GC processing.Now my client is not willing to extend my contract.Given the current job market, I think it might take atleast a month or two for my employer to find me another project.
Just in case my I485 gets approved, can anyone please let me know if it is ok to be without pay (employer will not pay between projects) after the GC gets approved?Please advise.
Thanks.

I have filed 485 for all my family members and received the EAD and AP(s). FP is not done yet. My daughter is in 1st year undergrad. Is there a way my daughter's 485 status can be maintained, if I join my daughter for MBBS study in India? If yes, what would be the option. Apreciate the suggestion

Yes people do.
I just got a couple of jobs about a month ago. Personally, i think posting in the "Job Seeker" section (this forum) is pointless. Go look in the "Job offers". No employer is going to look here for talent (as far as i know).
So yes, people do get jobs.

Under the new fee structure, does the NO FEE apply only to the initial set of AP documents or also to all the subsequent renewals of AP I-131 document.
Thanks.
It applies to all AP and EAD applications, not just the first one.

Does anyone know if there would be some kind of record about
when and how many times we have spoken to the IIO.
Like will a IIO be able to look at one's receipt# and say if they have spoken to an IIO earlier that day or whenever that is?
Thank you.
Well, Not sure on this, I'm just guessing there should definitely be a process for the IIO to logs the converse/update somewhere for a cases he is attending too and it will be available for other IO's too, if you have any followup's and call again.

I arrived through IAD (Washington Dulles Airport) on 12th morning.
I am on AOS 485 pending, EB3-I.
But entered on H1.
ZERO questions asked or any issues encountered at IAD.
There was only 1 officer assigned to take care of non-US citizens.
