I want to share with you our unbelievable story how we got our interim EAD at Bloomington INS office in Minneapolis, MN
1. We have our EAD renewal pending at VSC since 9/18 and the current one is going to expire end of this month.
2. Our application for EAD renewal was delayed by major distractions, circumstances and poor planning.
3. We had no chance of getting the EAD renewal before the current one expires and we were in difficult situation of loosing the jobs if we dont hv EAD (it is a different story that I save it for another day).
I-765 filed online 09/10/03 (Basis I485 filed on Sep'02 and approved I-140 on Dec'02) Went to BOSTON USCIS office on Dec 9th, 2003 (91st day)Current EAD expires on 12/10/03 (working on EAD)
Timeline:
6:00AM: Arrived and found there are around 20 people ahead of me.
7:00am: Entered building and told that I am there are EAD extension. I was asked for I-765 notice (it is exactly 91st day after filing)and asked me to fill a new I-765 form and got a "E" number.
Wanted to share my experience about issuance of interim EAD at Dallas office. I had filed EB-2 NIW petition and I485/765 concurrently in June. Since I did not hear from USCIS, went to Dallas office on Nov 20 at 8 am; got our number ticket by 9am; hwent in and sat down. The nos dont really go in order, but we got called about 12.45; the officer just wanted receipt notices of I485 and I 765; she called TSC to confirm pendency of the applications and then came back and said she will issue 8 month interim EAD's for my wife and me.
There were approx 25 people in line ahead of us.
Doors opened at 7am. We got our interim EAD's by 10:40am.
All they looked at was the receipt notice and asked us to fill another I-765 form. We had taken a copy .
Nearly everything about interim work permits are anecdotal, and even the USCIS.gov information is vague, but I took my chances yesterday, November 17, 2003, and found out that it is true that one can have same-day processing for I-765 applications which have passed the 90 day waiting time---at least those which have been sent to California service center.
got an interim EAD while I was waiting for my EAD to be processed. I filed it online hoping that it will be the same processing. The thing is that if you e-file online, you have to wait for the appoval of your application. In short, it won't do you good if you're in a hurry getting that permit. They give me a 90-day interim EAD because I have a pending I-485 application filed in the San Francisco District Office. I will suggest to go to the office instead of mailing or e-filing it.
I went to San Jose (CA) office and got the interim EAD. Following is my experience." I and my wife went to San Jose Office on 20th Nov 2003. This was actually 91st day from my recipt date of both I-485 and I-765. Reached there at 7 O clock and found around 50 people ahead of me in the line. Got in at around 8, got a token. I was called at 9. The officer asked me for the filled out application forms, receipt notices and then asked about my I-140. I told him that my I-140 along with my I-485 and I-765 is pending. He asked me for copy of my I-140 receipt notice.
I am very much impressed with the professionalism of two of Mr Khanna's staffers. Shivane and Prerna were very patient and worked very hard to complete all the forms and putting the supporting documents together before filing with USCIS. I would certainly recommend this firm to others. Keep up the good work.
Recently I got my H-1B visa approval.I really appreciate Mr.Khanna's quick response to e-mails inspite of his busy schedule.Throughout in my H-1B process approval I never get any problem. I am very glad I choose this law firm. Thanks million to Mr. Khanna and his professional team (Especially Miss Sirisha Durgham)I would definitely like to continue Mr. Khanna's consultation as my lawyer in future.
I am very much impressed by the punctuality, promptness, helpful attitude and friendly gestures of all the staff with whom I had the opportunity to interact. I highly recommend Mr.Khanna's office and staff for all immigration purposes.
I was really excited when I heard from Amrita that my labor certification has been approved so quickly. I would like to thank Mr. Khanna and his staff for their dedicated support in this regards. I am expecting the same level of support from you for the rest of green card process.
My GC was approved in less than two years through The Law Office of Rajiv S. Khanna. I got very quick response from the firm for any kind of questions related to my case. I highly recommend them.
My problems were solved through your office. Thank you very much.
Thanks Sushila. You did a wonderful job in filing the labor.
I received my GC within 3 years in EB3. All credit goes to Rajiv and his wonderful team.
This was my second attempt to file GC. (My first attempt got screwed up because of lawyer.) Second time I've insisted to go with Rajiv Khanna. My experience was wonderful. Rajiv, Suman, Mathew, Richa....they all did a great job. They are always responsive and available. I feel like I was dealing with friends.
I highly recommend Rajiv Khanna's firm.
Excellent service by Rajiv and his team:
My husband and I got our GC approved recently. It took us almost 5 years to complete our GC process from start to end. Rajiv and his entire team have been very responsive in answering any of my questions through out the process. Special thanks to Rajiv and Mathew for answering all my questions in the last 5 years. I would definitely recommend their services to any one that is looking for an Immigration lawyer.
Keep the good work going.
Thank you.
Thanks for your service. Myself and my spouse I-485 approved after nearly 4 years. I really appreciate Rajiv, Mathew and Jitesh for your help during I-140 denial, prompt returning telephone calls and emails. Never had problem to contact Rajiv to clear doubts about I-140 denial. Thanks again to Jitesh and Mathew to set up conference call with Rajiv to answer my questions.
I have contacted you in the month of June, 05 regarding my F1-H1 Issue. My H1-B visa was approved by the American Consulate in Mumbai with out any problems and I am in the US right now. I would like to genuinely thank you for all your help and advise and I am glad that I took your services as I tried a number of lawyers before you and everyone gave me conflicting advises. I am writing to you my whole experience in detail so that you can put this in forum as other people may get help from this.
At last it is over - the wait and agony of many years!
First, I want to thank this spectacular group and everyone who have shared their views and ideas... this forum has been a great asset for everyone appearing for CP.
Last stage of my Green Card experience went through a tough ride and we saw a lots of tipsy turvy roads.
Here is my journey of the GC:
Mar 2003 - Applied for labour.
May 2006 - Applied for I-140.
June 2006 - I-140 got approved.
November 2006 - Applied for CP
I tried 2 different attorneys before employing law offices of Rajiv Khanna, one attorney took money but didn't even bother to call me and other who wouldn't fill the basic information properly before filing the application for LC. Myself and My wife, we got our passports stamped yesterday (11/21/2002), the whole process took us about 2 yrs and 1month without any problem or query from INS. Working with the team of Rajiv Khanna was PLEASANT. Being a professional myself, I am really pleased with their DILIGENCE, PROFICIENCY, CONFIDENCE and EXPERIENCE. Even though my company messed up in making monthly payments, Ms. Lakshmi Kompella, Ms. Diane Lombardo and Ms. Suman Bhasin gave me an opportunity to clean it up without holding up the processing of my application. I am thankful for their CARE and UNDERSTANDING. Ms. Leila Lehman are praise worthy too, for all their support and PERSONAL attention given to my case. Thanks to the whole team for making the process EASY and PLEASURABLE. If the job needs to be done RIGHT, this is "THE TEAM".
