AOS Pending, Should H-1 be Renewed
Should H-1 be renewed while the AOS is pending?
Bottomline - I think H-1 should be renewed.
A little more info: A few months ago, I used to feel strongly that AOS applicants should keep their H-1 active for several reasons. Two of these are:
One, EAD issuance was erratic and CIS had discontinued issuance of interim EAD's (that is, if in 90 days your EAD is not issued, you could walk with a infopass appointment to your local CIS office and get an EAD). Thus, EAD's were unreliable and given for only a year. You could have interruptions in your work.
BEST LAW FIRM IN US FOR IMMIGRATION CASES -
I am working with Rajiv's office for past several years now. Rajiv's office handles my several H1 extensions and got me approval without RFE.
I filed my I-485 through Rajiv's office. There was government error which was impacting the processing of my case and it was put on administrative closure. Rajeev's office (Rajiv, Art and Heather) guided me to get through the problem and got the file re-opened in fastest way possible.
Both me and my wife like his no nonsense approach to the problem.
I believe Rajiv the best immigration lawyer one can work with.
