Working during Green Card Journey
Dear Community Members,
The principal applicant during green card approval process is often employed. However, the primary beneficiaries may not. If it takes too long for the green card approval, unemployment is often a concern/worry.
My green card was approved under NIW category and I had a similar situation.
This post is for general help to most of you who have similar situation as me. If you are struggling for jobs beside having EAD during the journey, I want to provide free help. This can mostly help to your dependent.
I suggest getting in touch with me so that you can benefit from this: ghimirebhagi(at)gmail(dot)com

EB1C Processing - I-140 Approved and EAD/AP Timeline Inquiry
My I-140 was approved on January 31, and I applied for I-485, I-765, and I-131 on February 24. I completed my biometrics yesterday. Can anyone share insights on the typical timeline for receiving a decision on the EAD, AP and I-485? When can I expect to receive the final decision for these applications?

Note: specific information for EB2-NIW i140.
This is a progress report for the ninth month of my application process on Lawfully (NOV-2023).
I'm currently awaiting a decision on my EB2-NIW I-140.
There have been no updates since last month (As you all know new fiscal year is coming), and I'm approaching the current 11-month (avg80% of cases being reviewed) review timeline for this type of application.
PS. I want to share my timeline and my case block number (IOE092313) with everyone in case it can help provide some understanding of how cases are progressing.
Sending best wishes to everyone in similar situations!

Travelling outside US after filing for I-140
Can someone please tell me if I can travel -
1) If I have sumbmitted my i-140 but the priority date is not current
2) If I filed for I-140 and I-485 concurrently and prioirity date is current
I have a L1 visa and can travel. I want to understand the impact on Adjustment of Status if I travel. How long can the travel be outside the US? #I-140 #adjustmentOfStatus #L1 #travel
Approved I-140 and recent PERM
Hello, I'm seeking clarity on my situation. I have an approved I-140 from a self-petitioned EB2-NIW with a priority date of May 2023. Recently, my employer filed a PERM for me in February 2024. Given this situation, can I proceed to submit my I-485 adjustment of status when my EB2-NIW becomes current for my approved I-140? Or do I need to wait for the PERM process to be approved again? I'm concerned if this PERM filing might prevent me from filing when EB2 becomes current for the Rest of the World (ROW). Just wondering if I should ask them to withdraw the PERM.

AOS vs IVP
I got I-140 approved in EB2-NIW with PD Nov 2023. I am from ROW country and my PD is not current. My current visa is expiring soon. By the time my EAD expires the PD is not likely to be current for filing either. So I am planning to go for IVP. Has anyone in this group gone for IVP instead of adjustment of status? If so, what are the risks involved as opposed to doing adjustment of status?
Thank you!

RFE after i—140 approval
Hi everyone. so wanted to know if anyone has similar experiences. kinda weird but well. I filed for i-140 Nov last year and got approved early this year. received my approval notice. Then several 30+ days later I receive RFE on the already approved i-140. Lawyer responded to the RFE basically saying we have the approval and it stands because we didnt get any notice of revocation or that the approval was in error. its been 4 months since that letter was sent to USCIS. No response yet. any ideas #i-140, #NIW

EB2-NIW PREMIUM PROCESSING
If someone upgrade their EB2-NIW regular I-140 petition to premium processing, will that person receive a second receipt notice or how can the person know that the I-907 form has been received by the USCIS? How long does it typically takes to get a decision after upgrading the I-140 to premium?

Does filing I-140 mean work authorization is extended
Does filing form I-140 automatically extend work authorization?
Form I-140 has been received and notice of receipt has been issued but I am yet to receive actual letter in the mail.
Do I file form I-765 to extend work authorization or it automatically is extended when I-140 is filed.

Please it is normal? is anyone also in this type of situation or that applied around that same time with their application still pending?
