Checkout this form. You can request duplicate approval. http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-824.pdf. But probably your employer should file for it.

People have started saying they would be happy to get GC in 5-10 years.
I think we deserve a little more than 5-10 yrs for our GC after having lived most of our professional lives in US....paid taxes...applied for PR....and followed the law of the land...Dont let ur head drop just because u r an imigrant....everyone of the US citizens and even those in Congress are desecndants of immigrants...REMEMBER that.

I did not see any updates on my I140 but just the update on my already approved H1b case.
If my employer has decided to revoke my I140, would i be able to find out , incase he doesn't inform me?

Your question 1 & 2 is the same.And you already know the answer.
YES. You can work for another employer temporarily for 3 months, and keep your "permanent employment offer". No need to inform USCIS except when they ask specifically.
Answer to question 3 is that USCIS is pre-adjudicating maximum cases, so that DOS can take educated guesses in moving the visa bulletin dates (instead of "blind" moves till now). Also USCIS is committed to reducing the overall processing time of 485 (if visa is available).
Thanks Krupa for your reply.
Could any one please clarify on below points.I hope this posting will also help other new members who got their EAD
1.Can I take an offer with a consulting firm for suppose 3 months con_w2 ?This firms will give me offer letter stating that I will work with them for only 3 months.I cannot file AC 21 since it is temporary employment.In my case since my original employer is intended to hire me permanently once GC is approved and supporting the GC process for this RFE Can I take this contract employment with out filing AC 21? As such I don't see any point in filing AC 21 in my case even if I find full time employment with the end client since my original employer is ready to hire me once GC is approved as GC is for future employment.Please clarify me on this.
2.I'm trying to avoid AC 21 as the job title and duties should be same or similar.In my case my LCA says that job title: Software Engineer Job duties says I work as Oracle CRM Functional. salary $90k
As per my expertise: I can work in Oracle apps manufacturing,Finance,supply chain,CRM,
Business Analyst:Finance,Health care,ERP,Insurance
QA Analyst: Functional QA (ERP or any other applications)
SAP QA,People soft QA,Oracle apps QA etc
All the above jobs are paid average $110k(Minimum 90k)
My question is suppose If I take a job as a QA Engineer to test an ERP product.Then definitely it will not fall in my LCA job title or duties.But to perform this job definitely I need to have strong ERP Back ground.It will become very hard to prove since my LCA duties says I work as Oracle CRM Functional(only one particular domain).So to avoid trouble I just want to respond this RFE with my original employer offer letter stating he is still intended to hire me once GC is approved.So that I can work in the above stated areas with different firms.Please clarify me on this
3.I heard so many people are receiving the RFE on I 485.Is it normal practice or USCIS is trying to adjudicate as many cases as possible by the end of september.Any guess?
Thanks for reading my post.Any inputs will be appreciated
Thanks

How did you guys find out your Name Check Status. Do we have to call USCIS to check for this or is there any other way to confirm this.
thanks,
I took an InfoPass appt. at the local USCIS Office and the IO there was quite willing to share information. He told me my FP returned with "no record" and my NC (same as BC) came out clean and was nice enough to confirm the same thing for my wife (even though she wasn't at the InfoPass appt. herself).
InfoPass appts are generally a crap shoot - if you are lucky you will get quite a bit of info, else the cold shoulder treatment.
But for sure, calling the USCIS office won't give you any info reg. the status of these checks.
Hope this helps.

longer how and in what stage ?
It's true that one has to mention about 485, select a choice between consular processing vs processing with in USA. this is usually done while applying for 140.
However, one can always make an amendment (to either approved 140 or 140 in pending ) to change the choice
by doing so, one has to wait for a bit longer time. (but, what difference it makes in these days of retrogression?)

USCIS updated today (07/30/07), the form 765 and instructions corresponding to 765
go to http://www.uscis.gov, click on 'Immigration Forms' tab, search for '765' and open the EAD link, go to the bottom of this page. now they seperated instructions and form into two separate links.
http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-765instr.pdf ( for instructions )
http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-765.pdf ( the actual form )
I think they added details about 'where to file'.
The information AditiK was refering on 9th page is now on 12th page.
gcpradeep's interpretation is wrong. danila's interpretation is absolutely right.
Its 30 days for asylum applicants and 90 for all other eligible applicats.
It looks very clear that 485 filers CAN get interimEAD after 90days.
Interim EAD.
If you have not received a decision within90 days of receipt by USCIS of a properly filed EADapplication
or
within 30 days of a properly filed initial EADapplication based on an asylum application filed on or afterJanuary 4, 1995,
you may obtain interim work authorizationby appearing in person at your local USCIS district office.You must bring proof of identity and any notices that you havereceived from USCIS in connection with your application foremployment authorization.

Dogking,
It took about 6 months. From what I understand, they pull your file from the BEC and cross check against your new PERM application. So if you have already got your 45 day letter, your case is already in the system and may be it will not take all that long.
there is always risk. If the PERM is denied, the RIR will be denied as well, that is the procedure for conversion cases. You can re-file 6 months later.
I just had my PERM filed. My job hasn't changed and I have 2 years left. My lawyer said it's worth to try. Now I have my finger crossed.
rb_248, after you filed the conversion how long for you to got it approved?

What happens if your I-485 is denied? Are you able to fix any issues or do you start all over? And on what grounds would they deny?
Most common grounds for I-485 denial are:
1) I-140 denial
2) Being out of status
3) Fraud
4) Not responding to an RFE in a timely manner
5) Unknowingly abandoning your application.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this thread but I could not find anywhere else to post it on this website.
I filed for my initial H-1B document and the H-1B adjustment document (from full time to part time) with an immigration lawyer last year. The two processes went relatively smooth. Thinking that this lawyer was someone I could trust, I also started the PERM process with her and had my company pay half of the PERM lawyer fee up front and signed whatever paper that I was required to sign.
After she was paid, I noticed that her replies to my emails were slower and some were even neglected. I'm extremely frustrated with her change of behavior as the immigration process is really important to me as it is to every immigrant. I tried emailing her again about 3 days ago with some questions, and she neglected it again. I tried to be as understanding as possible, but I personally think this is ridiculous and I'm getting very upset. She is the only person that works at the office and she has no paralegals or office staff. So I always have to talk to her directly for everything.
Today, I actually emailed her with another email account pretending I'm someone else interested in the H-1B process, and I received a reply from her within 40 minutes. So I know she's neglecting my emails on purpose. I'm not sure if she just doesn't take care of her "paid" clients or she just has something personal against me for whatever reason. (I was always respectful to her in every way so I don't believe it's something I did)
Since I signed the paper which states that I have to pay for a large termination fee if I were to request termination of contract for whatever reason, I can't just hire a new lawyer either. What would be a good approach to resolve this situation? I thought about talking to her directly face-to-face and let her know how upset I'm about her change of behavior (which she may charge me for her time) but I don't want her to screw with my immigration documents at the same time.
