Remedy for Denial of I-485 AOS
Today I have got denial on my I-485. Reason stated was "According to Visa Bulletin in effect on the date this application was filed , a visa was not available based on your established priority date and specific preference category" My category is EB2. Date of filing for this category is 1st July 2009. My priority date is 10th December 2008. I filed 485 application on 1/19/2016 and got receipt notice on 1/29/2016
I did my finger printing on 03/16/2016 based on USCIS schedule I and my family members also got EAD on 03/23/2016 I was surprised to see today’s denial reason. I filed 485 application based on Dates for Filing .e. 1st July 2009 for EB2 category. Not sure why they denied my case since Final action date is not current but I am sure I am eligible to file my application based on date of filing. Is there any way to appeal on this decision ? If appeal gets denied again is there any impact on my current H1B status ?

Effect of Divorce on an Employment-Based Case and Cross-Chargeability
I got married in May last year and my wife was born in Malaysia . I was on H-1B with I-140 approved then and learnt about cross chargeability and filed for green card in June, we both got our green card in October. Things are not going well with marriage and my wife moved to NY and she is thinking of getting divorce. If divorce does happen does this affect mine or her green card?
Video Transcript: As long as the marriage was in good faith and you just did'nt do it to get cross chargeability benefit then there is no problem in a divorce and that will not have an effect on her green card or yours. Both principal and beneficiary can opt out of processing the green card for their spouse if there is a split-up.

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.
