I was exactly in the similar situation. My wife entered on H4, started work on EAD. Now we are traveling to India, both have AP as well as H visa (H1 for myself, H4 for wife). I talked to our corporate lawyers pretty much the exact same questions you are asking. Here is the response (that I have in writing from the lawyers):
1. H4 status is invalidated the first day you report for work on EAD. While you are working, your status is AOS in the US. There is no consequence of this change (ie you do not have to report anything to the USCIS).
2. When you reenter the US, you can use H4 for reentry. (Yes, even if you are still employed the employer with an EAD and went to India only for "vacation"). This is because at the point of entry, the definition for "working on EAD" is actually reporting to work. As long as the H1 is valid, you can enter on H4. Your status at the point of entry is H4 admission. However, if you report to work the next day, your H4 status again is invalidated and you are back on AOS.
This is a pretty confusing scenario for many and multiple lawyers that I consulted have agreed with the above legal advise.
So, even though we have AP, we would be using our H visas to enter.
Send me a PM if you have further questions.
Hi chaanakya,
Thanks a lot for your replies. I had a few more questions -
1. Did your wife fill a new I9 form with the same employer when she was back again (on H4). The reason I am asking is that when you enter again you get a new I94 and that needs to be reported on the I9.
2. If the primary applicants 485 gets denied, then the dependent who is using EAD becomes out of status. At this point what to do for the dependent. Does he/she need to go out of the country and return back with a new H4, or can we somehow get back to H4 status from the US itself (note that the primary applicant is still in H1 status)

I was in your situation during my GC process. I was in EB3 queue going nowhere, but waited for couple of years. When my division sold out to a new company, I was promoted and with the new job, I could qualify for EB2. I then port it from EB3 to EB2 and with the wait really proved to be fruitful.
GC journey has lot of ups and downs like any journey in life need not get frustrated regarding this. Find various other avenues and ways to get over with it!
Thanks

I wonder on what basis did they advance the dates by whatever margin they did. No doubt, any positive movement (in hours, days ) is good but the consolidated database is not in place as I understand and so this seems pretty much a watershed. The dates might move with out any GC being issued :)

The main issue is not the expiry date of the DL, the issue is why make us verify all the documents and add the 6 month validity constraint even for "Change of Address" requests, and why give us a completely different Vertical Style DL unlike the standard Horizontal style DL.
Also, I have not reached that stage, but what happens with people with EAD? You have to renew every year and can renew only 120 days before Expiry. The expiry date of DL and expiry date of EAD will keep chasing each other and at some point you will LOCKED OUT of DL because of the 6 months validity constraint...
People from other states = Do you have to go through the whole verification process even for "change of address" requests?

My I485 is pending, recently I have changed my address online. I also recieved confirmation letters for this address change.
After 2 weeks of address change, USCIS issued an RFE. I have not yet received it, but I just want to prepare for this.
What could be the reason for this RFE? Is it common?
seriously dude..whats urgent about this? why do people create new threads with words like urgent, please help, etc etc, when the matter is not even urgent. This is a public forum, if its really urgent case, i have seen lots of people including myself, pitching in and giving their advices. And also, if it is really an urgent issue that you can't wait for responses, you need to be talking to the lawyer.
now coming to your case, i have no reason to believe that your case / question is urgent. You changed address and you got an RFE. you can respond to RFE as long as you are in the same/ simlar job description or whatever the RFE is for. You do not even have the actual RFE with u yet. Tell me whats the urgency about this. Infact if you just follow my posts, i have also posted to a thread that deals with responses to RFE's. I am wondering whats the need to open a new thread with URGENT as the thread name.
I hate to tell this, due to posts and threads like this, people who really require help with some urgent issues, their posts gets ignored. Please understand that this is a public forum and understand that I am just using your thread to send this message to everyone who does this. Nothing personal against you. Hoping you will understand..
Thanks.

I guess its much better for frauds to have an EAD/AP, then they can easily bypass the checking at consulates.
For them there are strict check at airports.

And Code 1 means red alert uh
Code 1 = if you applied EAD only (Index Fingers + Photo)
Code 2 = if you applied I-485 only (All Fingers only - FBI Name Check)
Code 3 = if you applied I=485 + EAD
I may have code 1 & 2 reversed :-) But thats the overall concept...

I took the pain of driving to NY all the way from Boston to get my passport renewed. I woke up at 3:00AM and stated off at 4:00AM so that I could reach the consulate by 8:00AM. I was told by my friends that I would get it in the evening itself. Unfortunately, I was faced with severe disappointment that they are no longer returning the passports on the same day. The worst part about the Indian consulate in NY is that they didn't update their Website. When I called them several times, non one answers the phone and speaks with courtesy.
After arriving at the consulate, we were made to wait in the cold for atleast an hour until 9:15AM (They open the doors at 9:30AM). They have no mercy for people. Also, the approach they took to call out people was terrible. It was like a fish market. I asked them if would get my passport back on the same day. I didn't get a straight answer until my number was called. I went there and atleast that lady talked to me with respect with a smiling on her face. Atlast I was told that they are not returning the passport on the same day. They asked me to pay 20 extra dollars so that they'd send the passport by Express mail (USPS). She also told me that I can track the passport.
I then drove back to Boston, the same afternoon. After exactly a week, I got the new passport booklet along with my old passport. I am fortunate enough to have all of the details printed accurately.
My strong advise to everyone is to send their passports by mail.
Thanks for the tips. I was also thinking of driving to NY from Boston, but it look likes it's not a one day affair.

Great topic. wating one more year would mean 12 more months of rent. so even if the house depreciates it would break even considering the lost rent. This is just my opinion assuming that the depreciation would be less than 5-10% till next summer. Experts please list out the hidden costs involved in mortgage for new home buyers to be careful about.

This is just my opinion assuming that the depreciation would be less than 5-10% till next summer. Experts please list out the hidden costs involved in mortgage for new home buyers to be careful about.
There was a talk on my local radio channel sometime back on the topic.
One guy called up and said he was paying $650 as rent and was planning to buy a home instead to build equity.
The expert gave him advice which I totally agree with. He said, a home will cost you a lot more than $650 a month in mortgage, insurance, property tax and maintenance. You will not really make any money for a long time. If you wish to make money, take the extra money you are willing to spend each month and invest in bonds, etc., which can give you better returns.
I think buying a home as an investment is not the greates idea, unless all the above factors have been considered. The real goal should be that the family or individual wants to live in a house instead of an apartment as a lifestyle choice. If this is not the primary goal, then think twice. Especially true in the case of several immigrants who see a home strictly as an investment and are totally obsessed about the money they will make or lose when they sell it.
Let us face it....no one knows what the real estate market will be 5 years from now, and again in 10 years from now and then again and again. If we want to be absolutely sure that we will sell our home someday and we have to make a profit, then no one can give that gurantee. Thinking along those lines is a pointless exercise.
