Can I work in the campus of the school with F-2 visa?

I found this site so useful for valuable information. I got approval from I 130 and I am in US with F-1 visa. Can I submit I 485 without immigration number? Also Can I request for the work permit on this basis?
I am glad our site has helped you. You can receive work authorization only when you apply for your I-485 (Adjustment of Status). You can file that only when your priority date is current. Mere I-130 pendency or approval gives you no help unless you are an immediate relative of a US citizen (like spouse or parent).
I just got my citizenship. My husband has an expired F1. We've been married for 4.5 yrs and live in the States, what do I have to do to get my husband permanent resident?
You need to file a whole bunch of forms (including but not limited to Forms I-130 and I-485). There is no way I can assess the whole situation since he is out of status. I do suggest you get a lawyer locally where you are.
I do have a question regarding EB2 eligibility. I earned a Bachelor degree in Science(B.Sc with Physics subject-which is not related to IT) from India(3 years) and also earned Masters in Computer (MCA in IT) (3 Years). So will I be able to file my employment Green card in EB2 category if I file my Green card in IT based company?
It is possible, but tell your lawyers to draft the PERM application carefully, so if EB2 is denied, EB3 should still be approved.
Finally Seven years of waiting comes to an end after so much of struggle, moving the case from EB3 to EB2, Interfiling, Follow ups from Senators Office, Follow from AILA thru your office, pending for security etc.. Thanks a lot for all your support and for your entire team, especially Amrita and Sheena for their continuous follow up with Service Center and AILA and keeeping me updated at every stage
Our green card applications just got approved - now waiting for the cards to arrive. This law office did a great job from beginning to end. Good luck!

My sister's F4 application was approved 1997 and she is due to go for her interview any day. My question is - I was recently made aware that although at the time the application was made and approved her 2 kids were under 21, but now 12yrs later they are both over 21. What is the next step to take. I was told she has to petition them once she is in US and the priority date will be from 1997. Is that true? How does that work?

Contact the consulate for their assessment.
I want to know whether our federal bank (reserve bank of India) is allowing this US $500,000.00 for investment in U.S.A. Then I will ask some more questions like whether it is easiest way to get green card and whether our money is safe in investment (in the regional projects) and the total expenses upto green card release level (apart from us$500,000.00)
We practice US laws so I have no idea about RBI permissions. Safety of money is not guaranteed in any of the trusts that I know of. After all, this is an investment, not a fixed deposit or a CD in a bank. For businessmen with established businesses, L-1A and then EB1 is usually the better option.

I would like to express my gratitude and thankfulness to the Law offices of Rajiv Khanna for their expertize in handling my case from the very beginning. I received my green card on May 13, 2009 under EB2 category. Having dealt with several law offices, including famous attorneys in the New York and New Jersey area, I have not found such professionalism, couteousness and friendliness as exhibited by the Law offices of Rajiv Khanna. Every paper work submitted was accurately drafted , reviewed and questions answered prior to submission. The results were as Rajiv forecasted in the beginning, which shows he knows exactly what he is doing, which is ultimately satisfying to any client.

Also special thanks goes out to all who worked on my case namely Heather Crump, Leslie Hager, Mark Riddick and Art Shifflett and answered all my questions and clarified every single doubt that I had.
