If u have valid H1 visa stamped why use AP?
But any ways, here the deal.
My wife recently travelled on AP she had an expired H4 visa.Port of entry atlanta.
Here is what you need
1) 485 reciept notice(she carried orig and copies-but nobody asked for them)
2) AP's in original "and" couple of copies wont hurt
3) Your passport

No issues on both fronts as long as you have adhered to the terms and conditions while obtaining the Canadian Visa. I had similar circumstances in the recent past.
A factor to consider is the unpredictable time spent at the secondary inspection when returning. I am not sure how that will work when you drive across the border.

Hi
Here is my situation:
Entered US with K1, received I-94 at the time of entry with Employment Authorized stamp, and the CBP officer told me I can work with the I-94 until my status changes to permanent resident.
BUT I-94 is valid only for 90 Days so my permission to work is not valid any longer (That is what the Employer says).
Filed I-485 to Chicago, IL, application was received on July 19/07.
Receipt Notice received August 27/07. Biometrics taken August 30/07, have an Interview on November 29/07.
I called USCIS, they told me I have to apply for an EAD.
Applied for EAD in August. Application was received on August 29/07, the Biometrics Notice Date is September 17/07.
Now I have an absolutely awesome job offer but I don't have a valid Employment Authorization document.
I called USCIS yesterday to ask if I can expedite the process for the EAD, they said go to local immigration office and ask them to see what options you have (she read some options, I didn't write any down because it was a long list).
I went to a local immigration office this morning, they said "We cannot do ANYTHING from our local office in regards to a EAD since September of last year!!!".
They also said to call USCIS and ask them to download the Biometrics from the I485 application to speed up the process.
I called USCIS this morning and they said they are UNABLE to download the Biometrics.
I asked them if there is a way to expedite the process for the EAD, they told me the same thing as yesterday: Go to local office!
Here I am, in this #$#%#^# loop, can't do anything about this and USCIS or the local immigration office does not give a damn about honest people who are trying to make a living and put some food on the table.
I don't know what else to do but if somebody has an idea please, please, please let me know.
By the way, the Immigration officer told me that the employer can hire me if they want, but it is up to the employer to decide!!! I just don't understand how somebody is supposed to hire me if I canno't show any documentation allowing me to work here.
I would also like to know how long it took for any of you who applied for the EAD??
Thank you!

Hello,
According to my knowledge the majority of name checks submitted are electronically checked and returned to the submitting agency as having "No Record" within 48-72 hours. The processing time for FBI name checks usually take from 30-120 days but timing does vary from case to case. The FBI’s intention is to have all visa requests processed within 120 days. Most name check requests that are over 60 days old are the result of the time required to retrieve and review field office record information. Any case which is not processed within this time frame is usually delayed because of a potential "hit" which will be further reviewed manually.
Hello Sir,
Thank you for the quick reply.
As my application have been lodge for almost 2.5 months now.
Can I please ask 'when' is the FBI name check done? Is the FBI name check the first thing that will be done?
How will I know that my FBI name check is successful?
Thank you once again.

I believe they would process the application within 15 days. It doesnt necessarily have to be an approval or denial, they can even send a RFE.
Once you respond to the RFE, its not necessary that they have to process your case with in 15 days.
TRUE.
It is 15 days (not business) including week ends.
Here are some hidden facts:
* 15 days window DOES NOT start from the day USCIS receives application.
* 15 days window DOES NOT start from the day USCIS sends a NOTIFICATION (Yes !!!)
* 15 days window starts ONLY when you see an LUD change with a description "Request for Premimum Processing" updated in USCIS system.
* When there is an RFE, the 15 days window clock STOPS.
while( case != approved && case != denied )
{
* RFE is issued
***** 15 days clock now is reset to 0 *****
* 15 days window DOES NOT start from the day USCIS receives RFE Response.
* 15 days window DOES NOT start from the day case status says "RFE Response received".
* 15 days window starts ONLY when you see an LUD change with a description "Case Resumed" updated in USCIS system.

Considering the state of the economy and considering that the most important poisiton to save is that of the primary applicant, I suggest that USCIS process cases of primary applicants asap.
Family members can contnue on EAD for long time; however if the principal applicant loses job and can not find another one, the entire family is done - pack bags and leave.
What do you think?
ssh --> I see from your profile your PD as 2001 and understand your frustration, waiting long. I like the idea what you has told... but not sure if it is practical.
Even I think, we need to ensure, the criteria for apply for EB immigration must be met @ the time the application is accepted. But after that, if the applicant status change in the interim, that should not jeopardize the entire applicaiton it self. With EB, they want to ensure, the status is met @ the time of approval, but given the present economic condition, any thing can happen, and hope USCIS, does not utilize this to penalize the law abiding legal immigrant folks for the delay by USCIS in processing application.
I'm not sure, The application eligibility should be verified/met at the time an application is accepted for processing and not @ approval is my view. But might not be acceptable to vast majority. Return the application immediately if criteria is not met, but not after many many years.

because i was getting conflicting opinions, i consulted an immigration attorney from a big law firm. here is what he says:
You can start working as soon the new company receives the h1b receipt notice.AC21 portability can be applied to H4 to H1 as well.
Link to AC21 guide:
http : // USCIS Home Page (http://www.uscis.gov) / files / pressrelease / ac21guide.pdf
"D. AC21 105 -- Visa portability
The AC21 105 provides that a nonimmigrant who was previously issued an H-lB visa or provided H-1B nonimmigrant status may begin working for a new H-lB employer as soon as that new employer files a "nonfrivolous" H-lB petition on the nonimmigrant's behalf, if:
(a) the nonimmigrant was lawfully admitted to the United States; (b) the nonfrivolous petition for new employment was filed before the end of their period of authorized stay; and (c) the nonimmigrant has not been employed without authorization since his lawful admission to the United States, and before the filing of the nonfrivolous petition."
Based on above information. I would assume that its safe to start after getting the h1b receipt notice. This is for other people in similar situation so that they get the right info.

There have been cases reported in past on this forum where the PERM approval was lost in mail.
You should ask your employer to download the PERM approval from DOL ETA website, which should be completed and signed by both you and your employer (similar to the PERM paper approval that you did not receive).
Your lawyer should submit this form with I-140 and also request USCIS to obtain a duplicate copy of PERM approval from DOL. This may help.
Are you porting to EB2?
Yes i was hoping to port to EB2.
The issue is that the lawyer says that they will follow this process of dowloading the cert and request USCIS to get a dupe, but hey say they cannot do this under premium processing and will have to file under regular I140. this adds 6 months to the process and effectively eliminates any advantage since i hope to get my EB3 485 current by that time.
