Is this true? If the employer agrees to not invoke I140 for next 180 days, I can start working for another company tomorrow without affecting my 485 application?
Wouldn't you need to show paystubs or something, for 180 days, for the company that filed your I485?
Thank you!!
This is dicey. The rule of thumb is: GC is for future employment. Somehow you need to convince this immigration officer that you worked or want to work for employer who filed GC for you. Thats why they have this 180 days clause.

I didn't find what I am looking for.
I already have a lawyer and the ONLY reason I want to file myself is because I am fed up in chasing lawyers, my company etc. They don't respond in time and anyways I am preparing all my documents my self and guiding lawyer also.
So, I am thinking to file myself.
Posted this in another thread earlier, these are the instructions I followed from my employer.
DOCUMENTATION FOR APPLICATION
BASED ON EMPLOYMENT
The primary applicant and all dependents must each file the following documents. All checks/money orders should be made payable to the �Department of Homeland Security� and stapled to the top left-hand corner of the Form I-485 (Application for Permanent Residence). Place documentation for each application in the order listed below.
1. Form I-485 (Application for Permanent Residence) and fee. Fee is $325 for each person aged 14 and over, $225 for each person under the age of 14. Check box (a) in Part 2 of the form. Form
I-485 Supplement A is not required unless you are illegally in the US.
2. Fingerprint fee ($70) for each applicant aged 14 to 79. USCIS will send notification of time and place for later fingerprinting. Fee may either be included with the check/money order for the Form I-485 or written as a separate check/money order.
3. Two color passport pictures (click here). Staple an envelope with photos to the lower left corner of the Form I-485.
4. Form G-325A (Biographic Information).
5. Sealed I-693 (Report of Medical Examination) and Supplement to I-693 completed by a certified USCIS Civil Surgeon. Children under 14 years of age do not need the x-ray or blood serology.
6. Evidence of valid nonimmigrant status. Prepare an outline or �history� of all prior periods of stay and visa status in the U.S. Include copies of related documents
(I-20s, IAP-66/DS2019s, I-797s) and 2 year home residency waiver letter, if applicable.
7. Photocopies of I-94 (both sides), passport identification, passport validity/extension, and US visa pages.
8. Photocopy of Form I-797 Approval Notice, showing approval of I-140 Immigrant Petition for Alien Workers. If you are filing while the I-140 is pending, write CONCURRENT FILING on the cover sheet and mailing envelope. Be sure to attach a copy of the I-140 Receipt Notice.
9. Photocopy of birth certificate showing parents� names. Passports are NOT acceptable substitutes for a birth record.
10. Photocopy of the marriage license of the primary applicant and spouse.
11. Photocopies of divorce decree(s) and/or death certificate(s) from all prior marriages of the primary applicant and spouse (if applicable).
12. Current employment letter for the primary applicant. Letter must certify continuation of permanent employment, starting salary, and duties.
13. If family members are applying, Form I-134 (Affidavit of Support) must be completed by primary applicant on behalf of any accompanying family members. Be sure to include documentation. Employment-based applicants do NOT file Form I-864.
14. If you or any family members are applying for work authorization, Form I-765 ($180 fee) must be completed. Download page 10 only. Staple an envelope with two additional photos to the lower left corner of the I-765. Mark (c)(9) in question #16.
15. See attachment on travel to determine whether you wish to file Form I-131 for Advance Parole.
16. Cover sheet listing all documentation.
NOTE: Any document not in English must be translated and accompanied by a translator�s statement. You should not translate your own documents. The translation does not have to be notarized, but it must include the certification of the translator. The following is an acceptable example of certification:
I, [name of translator], hereby certify that I am competent to translate from the _____________ language into English and that the attached/above is an accurate translation of the original [birth/death/marriage] document.
Signature _________________
Name of translator _______________
Address: ______________________

If the work for the same employer is fine. The EIN in the W2 and 1099 should match.
If any query comes, you can say overtime is billed on 1099.
I am currently on H1B thru a hospital as a physician and I did extra shifts for the same hospital and my extra icnome was given on 1099.
Is it illegal even if it is the same job but extra work?
Does it matter if the emoloyer already filed I140 on my behalf?
I know atleast 2 individuals who did it and got greencards without a problem.

Hi,
My I-140/I-485 are pending. I had also applied for my EAD card which I received promptly. The EAD card will expire in October, 2008. You know, at least until the I-140 gets approved, I don't need the EAD card. Can I just let it expire and renew it when I need it? Or will it be a separate application when I try to renew an expired EAD.
Thanks.
If your renewal requires fees, I would not get it approved.

Hi all,
I took today an Infopass to ask about the status of my I-485 (EB3 ROW, filled in July 2007, PD 12/2005). The IO told me that the case is pre-adjudicated under review and that, since there are no visa numbers available, the case will resume normal processing in October 2009 and that there is no reason to ask about the status anymore until that time. Can anybody explain what "pre-adjudicated under review" means ?
Thank you !
pre-adjudicated - As of writing, your case is good-to-go and subject to fbi name check & visa number availability.
under review - It may once be reviewed fully or partially before requesting for a visa number when available

Hi
I am changing my employment and will be going to reside in Memphis, TN
My employment will be in the Arkansas State !! and My Family will be in GA for some time, I have a Part for the income this year 2009 in GA too!!
Just to add this year (2008) I have to file state taxes for South Carolina as well as GA!!
Looks like my tax story will get more interesting in 2009!!
So what will be my Tax status in Case of TN and AR? Do I will need to file taxes in both state for 2009?
thanks for your experienced input that will help me to be little proactive in this matter.

How much time is it taking to get PR. Is it 3 years?
uma001...they is a forum for canada immigration in britishexpats.com.
You will get latest timeline data from US. I think it is around 1.5 years now.
fatboysam...Canada immigration is very straightforward.
There is not need for lawyers/agents etc. In my opinion it is better to do yourself.
My observation with lawyers/agents is that they sometimes oversell chances to sign in new contracts and then come up with fine prints etc and put indirect pressure to fudge things.
