You have the instructions since you quote them. Send exactly what they are asking for, i.e. the form, photos, copy of front and back of previous EAD and check to pay them.
I would suggest you send separate checks if only to be able to get the case number from the back of them when they are cashed.
The instructions clearly say make check payable to the Department of Homeland Security. I believe if you did write them to the USCIS they will still get cashed but follow the instructions.
You seem to have it all under control. Have confidence in yourself and get the applications sent in.

I forgot my password, and security question�s answer.
Is there a phone number on which I can call to get my password reset?
FYI - USCIS web site where you create your account is https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/index.jsp
There is a forgot password link on USCIS page. Click on that and enter your email id which you used to create your account. They will send you a link to reset your password.

My attorney says, they sent hundreds of applications and none of them returned. she says we dont have to refile, they are not going to send it back.
Guys,
Can any one explain his comments,
"We presume some folks are still waiting on their July 2nd cases to be returned and are debating refiling new cases rather than waiting. Unfortunately, there is a risk of not getting the package back before August 17th and some people will need to refile without proof of the earlier filing."
Shouldn't any application rejected on July 2nd have already reached our lawyer's office by now?
Also, if my appliction, filled on July 2nd, has not been returned yet, shouldn't we assume that it will be accepted?

Hey Dontcareanymore,
You are right.
For other folks, here is the summary -
1) Got H1B visa stamp valid from August 2007 till August 2010.
2) Started working from October 2007 and Was laid off in November 2007.
3) Joined a consultant (IT) in December 2007. Got the training but never pursued any job as did not like the IT field.
4) Found another job in my field (chemical engineering), filed for H1B (premium processing). Got approved without change of status in March 2008 (I-797B) .
6) Attorney said that i have an almost brand new H1B visa so don't have to get a new visa but have to bring myself back into status by re-entering into US. Did that in April 2008. Total number of out of status days = 134. Started working for this employer from April till 30 September 2008.
7) Found another job. Changed the job. Got the I-797A (with I-94). Working with them since October 2008. This new petition is valid from 1 October 2008 till 30 September 2011.
8) Came to New Delhi for visa stamping on 25th Feb 2010. Had almost 20 to 30 minutes long interview.
9) First VO asked normal questions such was job duties, salary, last 3 pay stub, W2 form etc.
10) Then VO found out from the form DS 160 that i have checked on 'out of status' checkbox. She asked what happened. I explained it.
11) She went to consult someone else. Came back and gave me back all the documents and asked that someone will call me on another counter.
12) Another lady called me on different counter after 30 minutes. She sounded friendly and gave me a 221 g form (pink). She told me that it will take 6 to 8 weeks to finish the admin processing.
13) 221 g form had questions like resume, thesis, publication, last 5 travels in US etc.
14) I asked the lady if i can go back on my current valid visa and new I-797A. She went to consult with someone else and said that yes i can go back if i want to and the embassy will shoot me an email when they need the passport for visa stamping.
15) With my best judgment, I left India for US on 3rd March 2010. At POE (Chicago), forwarded my passport (work visa valid till August 2010) with the I-797 A (valid till September 2011). CBP officer gave me the I-94 valid till September 2011.
16) On 16th March 2010, got an email from embassy that they need my passport.
17) I asked if they have received the clearance. They sent me back the automated message that they need my passport.
18) Called DOS to know the status. They said that they can only see on their system the information submitted by the embassy and not beyond that. And the latest information embassy submitted was that they need my passport. The also mentioned that they don't have any idea why the embassy needs my passport. And 221 g is not cleared yet.
19) With best of my abilities, made a decision to go back to India and submit the passport to vfs.
20) Came to India on 29th March 2010 (early AM) and submitted the passport on the same day.
21) Passport was sent back to me on 1st April 2010 with the visa stamped.
22) The new Visa expiration date is 29th March 2012 while I-797A expiration date is September 2011. Why is it so i do not know.
23) Checked the status on the New Delhi embassy website for 221g and it still says that the case is pending though i have received the visa stamp. It indicates that embassy folks do not update the case status report for 221 g.
Please feel free to ask any question.

BharatPremi,
No offense, but why have you opened 2 threads with very similar information and questions?
Your other thread about soft lud updates (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=15916) is very similar to this one. It's one thing to not search for similar threads and quite another to open 2 similar threads on the same topic.
After about 28 threads about LUD updates during the July VB Fiasco, we know by now that the USCIS approves cases ad-hoc and not everything is FIFO. We also know that LUD updates mean ABSOLUTELY nothing. Suddenly we have seen older I-140s getting soft LUD updates. It means absolutely NOTHING. I know it is a bitter pill to swallow, coz ur heart is telling you that MAAAAYYBE there is something here, but unfortunately there is nothing there.
You are right. LUDs can be misleading and do not give accurate info on what is happening to the case. In the absence of info, people make do with whatever little info they can get. I was recently speaking with a member and he told me that people even congratulate each other when they have LUDs. :D

Same thing with me. My priority date May 3rd, 2006. I got EAD renewal email today.
Hello Folks,
I'm Aug-2005 EB2-I.
Haven't received my GC yet.
I think, based on various experiences mentioned here, opening a SR, taking local immigration office appointments, etc is a way to get USCIS to look at your file.
I also read, if there was a pending EAD renewal, your case might get looked at and instead of renewing your EAD, USCIS will rather give you GC - provided PD is current and there are no other issues.
I know none of these 2 things have a documented backing...apart from people's experiences (which, I value a lot - don't get me wrong there).
My EAD was also up for renewal - filed in June. Got the "card production ordered" e-mail @ that yesterday. And, no change on the AOS case.
So, should I take other steps @ my AOS case - like, opening a SR, taking IO appointment, etc ?
Thanks

If I work on EAD for company XYZ then will I loose my H1B with company ABC?
If company 'ABC" is a consultant company then..make a deal with them and work thru them for XYZ for 2-3 months and take transfer to xyz.
Otherwise you have no other option than using EAD.

Not sure what they do in the secondary inspection.. In my case they asked no questions at all.. Just asked me to sit and wait while they entered / checked something in their system. I was in and out within 20 mnts.
I had the same experience. However, my POE was Miami. No questions asked. My spouse and I just waited (with our USC daughter) in secondary inspection till they called my name and handed over our papers to me.

I filed 485 on July 18 in NSC. I called USCIS on Oct 16 (exactly the 90th day), early in the morning. 1-800-375-5283(1,2,2,6,2,2,1). The lady who picked up said they have introduced a new system to raise a 'Service Request' for those who are waiting for more than 90 days for check clearance. She siad that mine was the first case she was entering into the system. She keyed in my details and gave me a Service Request # and said that an agent will be assigned to my case within two days to look for my application. On Oct 18th, I found that my checks were cleared. But the rec # are not showing on online yet. So, pls call USCIS and raise a service req if you don't see any activity yet, it worked for me, though the rec # s not updated online yet.
I found that my appln was moved from NSC to TSC, as my rec # starts with SRC-08.
God bless u; I have asking them for a Service Request. They do not want to raise any Service Request and asked me to wait.

I had got RFE email on 8/28/08. I got the letter today in mail.
My mother's name on G325A was written as her mainden name (as per form instructions) and its her married name on my BC. Now USCIS finds this discrepancy and needs evidence to establish my parentage. I will have to submit my BC which is already been done. I am not sure if that will suffice.
Has anyone else had similar issue?
Thank you in advance.
Probably what you need is an affidavit confirming your mother's both names.
That's my opinion.

Hey,
My I-140 was filed in June 2006. It was based on the LC Substitution from the same company..but filed with the copy of the LC. It has been still pending for more than a year with TSC. Last inquired with USCIS in Jan 07, USCIS came back to us and said it requires an additional review. But the LUD remain the same as June 2006.
My lawyer said she will another inquiry with USCIS in August 2007 as 6 months waiting period will be over from last inquiry....
In my case, I never received the original PERM LC. Perhaps it got lost in the mail or they forgot totally about the issue that's why he had to file with a copy.
