employer not knowing h1b is not new. make sure the lawyer they hire knows to do H1b. H1b transfer can be quick as you can work with new employer B once H1b filing receipt is recived. to be sure you can ask employer B to file H1b premium that will get you a decision in 2 weeks

so lets say you bought a packet from Amazon. You gave amazon your old residence address in Los Angeles. You now live in Miami The package is sent to Los Angeles. USPS delivers the package in 7 days . The person at your residence returns the package. USPS now takes a month to figure out why package is returned. It takes another 10 days to find your forward resdience . USPS figures( USCIS aka) that you no longer live there and than sends it to MIAMI it take another 7 days for the package is sent to Miami. So the morale of story is dont be .... All 3 of your logics are flawed. If you give a wrong address your package will be sent to wrong address. You are not einstein or special to USCIS. If you act stupid, USCIS will do stupid things with your application.

all of you guys should pool together and collective file a WOM in a location that is favorable. @mindthegap i cant comprehend how many times you have filed i-751

dont worry during the interview they will go through the questions with you that you submitted on n-400. Peace

Honestly no one is going to do that. Good luck and let us know if you find one..

Your dont need a lawyer. Your case is straight forward to file a mandamus. I posted details about how to file mandamus in court by yourself https://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/799745-how-to-file-a-mandamus-in-federal-court/ Jesus christ - 7 years.

Yes H1b is dual intent. As long as she has a job with an employer you can enter on h1b and later adjust status when the law allows

follow the instructions in the RFE

next time take a photocopy of everything you send or scan all the pages of documents for records

at the end of day it does not matter who the admin. The question is will your application gets picked up in the random USCIS adjudication process or not. everything else is just picking

dont see any issues in your case. just make sure to file all paper work correctly change address with usics asap by filing AR-11

or fly into canada. cross the border via road

First step: 1) File for divorce 2)Cancel all credit cards 3) Cut all contact. 4) Find a new girl friend 5) Document all contacts and all messages/ pictures/videos . They are your evidence. 6) if she already has green card, there is not much you can do. it is what it is and move on. They are lots of single women waiting for you on the other side Number 3 is most important.

San Francisco is know for being it too slow.. File it and get it done. 2 years wait is pretty solid time for i-751 not being adjudicated.

yeah i just read OP's case timelines. October filing for WOM is too soon. AP for Iranian folks is normal due to country of origin. expecting USCIS to complete AP in a month is also not normal. I would wait another 3-4 months in this case before filing.

These statements are not correct. There is no timeline for USCIS to adjudicate but congress has give guidelines for USCIS to adjudicate all petitions within 90/180 days from the day of filing. Hacking is just giving the 1 year timeframe cause they think it a strong case for winning. It is not the truth. The truth is one can file a mandamus 90 days after filing of application and the application is still pending. 180 days is clear cut timeline but 90 days is to start filing.

unless its a private teacher position or college teacher position than you need to apply for jobs and interview. Google is your friend. there is no one source for h1b teacher jobs

there is no stamp given when extension letter is valid

its a billion dollar industry. i dont blame them not hanging out in the chat section if visa journey 😄

who ever is the applicant and has pending petition with USCIS should file the case

Iam here and have experience in DIY mandamaus . Holler over your questions 1) What additional steps should we take before we go the WoM route? We have made periodic inquiries at the USCIS. We engaged our senator's office TWICE with nothing coming from it. Do we first wait until we are outside of normal processing and then get a Tier 2 officer involved? I want to make sure we lay the proper groundwork as a foundation for a WoM if all else fails (i.e. "Yes, your Honor, we did do X, Y and Z with no movement or results"). Senators office is useless( in my opinion). you can file a mandamus as long as it has been 90 days from the day of filing of your petitions. . Your case is will over normal processing time. I wouldnt wait.. 2) What are the criteria for a WoM to be successful? What are all the steps to take initially? (maybe this is a repeat of question #1 above) its like an argument where you are telling the court why they should intervene to force USCIS to make a decision. You can simply say " as per immigration law , Congress has ordered USCIS to adjudicate all immigration petitions within 90 days of filing( google about immigration law of 1992). As per your case your petition is pending for more than 1 year and you request courts to intervene blah blah blah 3) We have BOTH an I-751 and N-400 outstanding. So would this be TWO WoMs? If a WoM runs circa $5k, would that hit our wallet to the tune of $10k? WOM filing fee in court is $402 and a couple of weeks of your research work. You need a computer and printer and some stamps to post the case . See my post about DIY wom. if you need more assistance DM me . You can file both cases in one wom. you dont need two WOM's

it can take anywhere from 1 - 6 months for approval to arrive

1) you can change employer but you won't be able to port to another employer unless 180 days has passed after 485 filing. 2) you dont have to file i-485 if you are not ready. its as simple as that. j
