Stop waiting in line for EB2 and EB3!
I am born in India. My EB2 date was 2017!
I spent 1.5 years making my profile #EB1 ready, and got EB1 and my Green card!!
It was a concerted effort building my profile and brand, and I recommend you all to explore this option!
I am planning to help others on this path by providing coaching and mentorship, initially starting with a free webinar: check out goeb1.com and register.
If nothing else, you will learn about EB1

Eb4: Change of employers while I-485 is pending
Can we change employers while I-485 is pending for eb4 religious workers? I know there’s I-485j form for other employment bases categories if they change employers after 180days but not sure for eb4. Now that the things changed coz of retrogression, I would like to know if there’s any option for changing employers.

1-130 for Permanent Residents is 46 months at NBC?!
Is USCIS serious about 46-month time frame for the 1-130 petition at the National Benefits Center? It seems like for citizens, it's 36.5 months, which is still a long ass wait time.
This is crazy.
Anyone heard back with their i-130 from September 2022 PD?
Emma said my 1-485 interview seems to be waived, and is just waiting for the i-130 to be completed. What's going on with NBC?!

Adjustment of status through Court hearing
I am currently in removal proceeding due to an Asylum case. I already had my master hearing in 2020. I got married to a U.S. citizen in 2021 and filed for just I130. We had an interview for our I130 last year and was approved. My lawyer filed for my I485 with USCIS and notified the immigration court about it. I have my Individual hearing in July (few days after our 2 years marriage anniversary ).
Is it safe to proceed with defending my marriage at the Individual hearing to Adjust my status for green card with the Judge or I should terminate at the court and proceed to adjusting my status with USCIS?
I heard that that adjusting status at the court can be difficult due to the questions they’ll ask my husband and I.
please help provide any information

Green Card approved
Yesterday I shared my experience during my interview. I received the approval for my I-485; however, I-130 is still pending. I'm thrilled, and because I know how stressful is all this process I want to share with you how I organized my documents in case some of you find it helpful.
I divided my documents into five categories:
in a brief case:
1. i-130: where I had all the copies you need, like passports, marriage certificates, birth certificates, Driver's licenses, and interview notices.
2. Cohabitation: We don't have a lease; my husband owns the apartment, so we have the deed, plus different documents to prove I have the same address: my bank statements, correspondences I received, plus a letter from the building manager stating we live together.
3. Joint finances and insurance: Credit card statements from our joint account, car insurance, health insurance, tax returns, my 401k, where my husband is the beneficiary, and life insurance. We also included a print screen where I'm his emergency contact at work, and he is on mine.
4. Memberships and dog: Our puppy agreement, the registration at the AKC, some vet receipts, everything with both of our names on it. Also, we included our Spotify duo account, Amazon Household and the gym membership.
5. Love, friends and entertainment: We submitted 8 support letters from family and friends including a copy of their ID, copy of the letters we gave to each other for Christmas, Valentine's day and special occasions. Also, some wedding invitations and other letters our friends sent us. Additionally, we included at least 8 Facebook posts, and our profiles where it says we are married to each other. And finally, we printed all the events and concerts we went together, at least 10. I just printed the tickets.
Apart from this we had a big photo album, but the officer didn't ask for pictures (she was a little bit overwhelmed for all the evidences, and that is exactly what we wanted). She also congratulated us for how we organized our documents.
I wanted to share this with you in case it is helpful. As I said, after a year waiting I know how stressful is this process.
I wish all the best for you guys. 🙏

Is there anyway to reinstate green card if abandoned at no fault of mine?
If someone have faced this before, the green card was taken away after not showing in the US for more than a few years, however the age was 4 years old which means it wasn't "voluntary abandonment of status". Does anybody know anyone who faced this and is there anything to do to somehow reinstate the Green card? Thank you.

Do you have long Name on Green Card or Advance Parole Card?
Looking to connect with others who went through this scenario-
I have two parts of First Name and on my appplication we filled all characters correctly but one last character of first name missing on all the notices, EAD and GreenCard.
Did anyone faced this issue? Wondering will there be any issues at the port of entry with one character missing on green card due to USCIS max characters limit on system.
I wanted to hear from actual people who faces this and successfully travelled back to the country via port of entry.
