Question details
1. One of my friend had his 140 approved in 2005. He has his 485 pending since 2005. now he got RFE which essentialy says that 140 was approved in error and asks for ability pay prooof. Can USCIS go back and raise RFE's in this manner?
2. If yes then would he have been better if he had changed the job using AC21 ? My impression was that Once one is eligible for ac21( 180 days past 485) , RFE's related to old employer should not come. seeing this , using AC21 seems very risky. what happens if someone changes job and then USCIS says that 140 approved was in error , and asks for bunch of proof from the old company. what is your take?
1. There is some legal argument for saying no, but in my opinion, USCIS can do this. In fact, I think there is a 9th circuit case from last week that says they can.
2. My take is AC21 would be a better idea, although, not fool proof.
I detest this current trend of USCIS of over-scrutinizing every case and making impossible demands while operating in an environment of regulation by memorandum. I could share some horror stories with you.
I have received excellent service from attorney Mr. Rajiv S. Khanna and his entire talented team. I got an audit request on my case after two weeks of PERM filing at DOL. Mr. Khanna and his dedicated team, attorney Sheena, Amrita and Kim everyone worked relentlessly in response to the audit request. Finally my Permanent Labor got certified within one week of their response. I would like to thank attorney Mr. Khanna, attorney Sheena, Kimberly Phill and Amrita for their generous support on the success of my case. I will definitely recommend everyone to consult attorney Mr. Khanna and his well-experienced team for any immigration matter.
