If you are questioned on educational equivalence of the 3+2 year degree's parity with US' 4+2 year bachelor + masters, and your education evaluator can make a strong case for it, you should be ok.

I have copy of approved 140. But second green card processing from my new employer needs to be filed again.

Does it mean that if she graduates before the I-485 is approved, she cannot work? Or can she accept employment on the green card EAD even though the I-140/I-485 are pending. What will be her status during that period?

I have sent the request for renewal of my and my wife's advance parole to the USCIS about 10 days back.
Following is the list of documents that I have sent, along with a fees of $360, online (each)
- Copy of the Confirmation Receipt notice.
- Copy of I-485 petition.
- Current Status of I-485: Case received and pending.
- Copy of I-94.
- Copy of current approved I-512L, authorization for Parole of an Alien Into the United States.
- Copy of Passport.
- Two photographs.
- Copy of Drivers License.
Do I need to send any fingerprinting document?
Is there anything else that I need to take care of related to this request for advance parole renewal?
I really appreciate your help in the matter. I got the receipt from USCIS.
I sent my EAD copy as well.

We (parents) had applied for family based concurrent AOS in Aug, 2008 while we were on
tourist visas. We are now in India on Advance Parole(valid till Aug. 2009) that we received
after filing AOS.
Today(Feb, 2009) production of green card has been ordered for my wife and will soon be
received in USA. My case is still pending but we expect it processed soon. Thanks for all
the help.
My questions is
(a) What documents we need to show at immigration on returning to USA?. We have I-485
Notice, Advance Parole and valid Passports.
(b) Do we need to request somone in USA to mail our green cards on receipt.?
(c) How much maximum time we still can stay in India.? We wish to stay here for another 1-2
months. In any case making travel arrangements etc. is likely to take atleast 2 weeks.
(d) But is there a time limit for returning?
(e) Can we safely enter 2-3 months after the cards are received in USA, and
(f) sending GC by mail is not objectionable?
Also, in totality, Which one of these scenarios is correct:
1) Do we have to return immediately on approval of green card, enter with advance parole
only and it is not legal to mail green cards?
OR
2) It means if we can get our cards mailed and receive it here, we can safely travel back
with our green cards, even after 2 months of its receipt in USA. Overstay abroad is not an
issue whether it is 2 weeks, 2 months or even more. Am I right?
We would appreciate all the help here, as these are some of the question I have looked over
many sites and forums but could not find answers to. Thanks so much!

My PD is Oct 2004 .Received I-140 RFE Ability to pay.RFE date Jan 2nd 2009.They have asked for Tax returns for 2006 and 2007 (2004 and 2005 were submitted during filing).They have mentioned that we also have the option to submit W2 ,Audited statements or Annual reports.The company is a small company with 20-30 employees and is doing pretty well .For 2004 ,2005 and 2006 their net incomes is about 3-4 times my proffered wage.But there is an issue for the 2007 return.Their year ends in June and hence 2007 return was due on September 2007 for which they have filed an extension.Hence returns are not due till March 2009.RFE has to be responded to by Feb 2nd.They have paid an estimated tax of about 34000-35000 .My proffered wages are 52000.Hence if one calculates the estimated income it is in line with the previous years and is about 3 times my wages.But there is no return only extension notice and proof of taxes paid .I do not work for them right now and have no W2.They do not have any audited statement or annual report.I am trying to get them to give me a statement from their CPA stating estimated revenues,net income and tax for 2007 but I am being given the run around.If I were to submit only with the 2006 return and 2007 extension filed with proof of tax paid is it OK or do i most definitely need that letter from their CPA.I doubt I can get anything more than the CPA letter and that too is doubtful.Business owner perceives CPA letter not needed attorney states needed.I am in a limbo.Please help .Do I also need statement showing income from July 2008 through December 2008 to show current ability to pay as advised when they have asked only for 2006 and 2007 returns.PLEEEASE HELLP AND GIVE YOR ADVISE.

Hello,
I am an F1 visa student and am marrying my sweetheart who is an American citizen. We are planning to pick up the marriage license tomorrow, in MA. I know one of the questions is "residence". Do I put my local residence (I've been here for about 6 years) or my foreign residence? I do not want to jeopardize my status.
Thanks
Congratulations..... this is big deal for each & every human ...... :)
since u'r a student in legal status & u live in US for last 6 yr..... so u've to have a US address..... i think it will be best to put US address..... it will keep things simple..... there is nothing wrong with u having a US address.... becoz u live here......
happy married life.... even though it may sound like an oxymoron ;)

Sanju, I hope you were right but they are talking about immigrants in totality (legal and illegal) . Unfortunately with the bad economy and job market this fire might be heading our way i.e. legal EB guys. (I hope I'm wrong)
fueling the fire, but they better make sure the fire drivesoff the right monsters , the illegals.

I am in the same boat. My wife 485 just got filed with me as dependent so I am holding off on sending mine in. I read that this is a very gray area, and at least fragomen claims that they have had cases in which both 485 applications were rejected because of this dual filing.

Hello all,
If my GC is approved, is my employer bound by obligation he gave to USCIS when he filed I140 petition?
I mean, in I140 employer explicitly stated my future wage, it is 20% higher then wage I am getting from him while I am on H1B.
Say, my GC is approved and employer refuses to raise my wage to match the amount given in I140. Is there any way to make him stick to this obligation? Like, complaining to DOL, or where else? And if I complain, can it affect validity of my GC?
The problem is after GC I have to stay with this employer for another 6 months to avoid possible complications in future applying for citizenship. If I just quit and take another job - that will make a possible problem in the future; but if he lays me off, then I am fine. But he does not want to lay me off, and does not want to keep his promise. Any ideas?
If he lets you go you have no issues with future naturalization in case you have all your records, termination letter etc. I am unsure about the wages mentioned in your LCA. I think it is mandatory and can be challenged since employer is giving an undertaking that they have the ability to pay the amount mentioned in your LCA/I140.
You need to get good advise if they terminate you immediately after you get your GC will it show some malafide intentions/agreement between you and your employer which was there in place just to secure you a GC.
- cheers
