Google for something called "Follow to Join", if you were single then why did you apply for 485? Atleast you could have withdrawn teh application if you had applied by mistake....
But for follow to join i think there is a clause that the person should be married before 485 gets approved, meaning the primary applicant did not add spouse to 485 and his 485 gets approved or the wife does not have 485 approval then they can use follow to join.
But do speak to an attorney if follow to join can be applicable in your case (i remember reading some 60 day limit or so) but please confirm and act accordingly.
Otherwise only other option you have is to get married and bring your spouse on any other visa like h1b or so.
Dontworry my friend speak to a good attorney they may advice what to do.

Hi in case of emergency also one can go to nearest USCIS center and request for AP. I consider this as an emergency also. Request for an urgent AP and they can generate one in less than a week. I think then all of you can go and get wedding cert from India.
I still think...that by being here you can do the following:
1. See if your marriage was registered. If yes then you can get cert from ADM there. If not then tell the ADM office to write on official letter head that both of you got married but marriage was not registered.
2. Also in that case get affidavits from your parents and her parents mentioning the date, day, place of marriage. These will be 4 affidavits. They also should mention that they did not register the marriage at that time.
3. See if you have photos. Get them scanned and take a colored print and get it notarized from magistrate there in India or here.
send all of these to USCIS and you should be done man. I dont think you need to go to India. But again check with lawyer also.
Best Regards,

"possibility of retrogression"???? thats sounding like a weather forecast. :)
lets have a specific prediction here. Can you pick an year and month for EB2-India for the October 2008 Visa Bulletin (start of new fiscal year)?
Ron Gotcher believes EB2-India will be somewhere at 2002/2003.
meridiani.planum, thanks for giving me red. I dont think EB2- India will go back to 2002/2003 for the October 2008 visa bulletin. Even if it goes back to that old dates it comes back to 2006/2007 very quickly.

Is it possible to file I-485 without I-693(Medical) ?
The reason I ask is that I cannot get a doctor's appointment in July. For some reason, if we are able to file in July, can I submit the 485 first and submit teh I-693 later.
Please advise
There were doctors in my area who did not ask for appointments. I got my medicals done by walk-in. It means you have to wait, but you can decide wen to go instead of an appointment. Call all doctros within a certain radius and see if anyone will accept walk-ins.

Congrats on getting your green card. Your post and attitude is the exact reason why DOL has made it almost impossible to get EB2 certification especially in the software field and why people despice consultants like you and your desi employer.
You said in your post "Appiled for EB3 labor in jan 2004, even though i am qualified for EB2" dear sir its not your qualification that determines whether you get to file in eb2 or not but it is what the job requirements are that determine whether it is eb2 or eb3.
Another line from your post "After realizing that the dates will never become current for EB3, my desi employer files for EB2 labor" this and the previous line clearly show that you and your desi employer have no respect for the law. It is because of blatant abuse like this that DOL is cracking down on eb2 filings. Now thanks to people like you and your desi employer who have abused the law now even eb2 india might never become current because tons of people have already ported and spillover to eb2 is not happenning anymore like previous years. People have realized even eb2 india is never going to move beyond 2003 so "consultants" like you and desi companies have moved on to abusing eb1. Seems like you are proud of your achievement just like the L1 folks from desi companies who brag about getting green card in less than an year by abusing L1.
To all the people who think they can pull a trick like mr salawrene by filing in eb2 again hard luck there are 120000 485 applications with USCIS with eb3 and eb2 having about 60000 each, because of abuse in Eb1 no more spillover of visa numbers to eb2 india wil occur so eb2 india will not move forward, on top of it dol is cracking down on eb2 filings. eb2 might start moving backward to 2003 or 2002 and will remain stagnant like eb3 because no visa spillover is happenning.
because of desi consultants and desi employers abusing the system the whole EB community is suffering, high time we respected the law and stop this practise. for speaking the bitter reality if eb2 and eb1 abusers, consultants, desi employers want to give me a red go ahead and do it, but ask yourself have I said anything which is incorrect
Well he got his GC. Dont be jealous.
Congrats !

Googler,
How is this possible, EB3 ROW also has a limit to how many they can use correct? They only can use what ever is beyond the 7 % used for India/China/Mexico/Phil (28% in total). Out of 1/3 of the 140K.
Am I right here ?
I think EB3 - ROW will stop or retro. next month or for sure in the next couple of months back to where they were. Lot of people here are saying that ROW will be current soon I am not sure where they are getting these facts.
Optimystic -- is your PD current?
The movement of EB-3 ROW will mop up most of the green cards left this year.

It's just a caution. Some people would like to take it slowly but surely, some people love to run fast with a risk of stumbling in the middle. Whichever you go, the finish line is always the same.
All I am saying is if you wish the fast route with the risk of stumbling, then go for it. If not, try the slow but sure route.

The rule that USCIS follows is that if they estimate that your priority date wil become current within a year they give you a 1 year EAD. When they estimate a wait of more than a year they give a 2 years EAD. ofcourse this is not strictly followed as we have seen cases of people falling through the crack and getting 1 year EAD when their priority date is far in the grey area (1 to 1.5 years from the current date)
Look at the bright side a 1 year EAD means that you will most probabaly be current in a year :D:D:D

The potential for misuse is too much. So I only support GC for someone with a PhD, even though I have a Masters.
Even with that potential for misuse will be very high...you will see people doing "PhD" in bottom of the barrel university ranking places. In fact professors who give easy PhD in easy university will be in hot demand. Nowdays people try to do good PhD in good university as it helps in getting a good faculty position eventually...this will bringa whole new dimension to why people will do a PhD in US. 3 year PhD like in UK will get prevalant in US.

Peace out guys!
Why dont we call it a day on this issue. The OP was venting frustration, and feels entitled to do so. Nothing wrong with that, and there is no need to question his motives or logic. Considering what all of us are going through, there is a lot to be said in favor of letting out steam.
Lest anyone feel offended for anything I have said, I am not being patronizing. Indeed, after five years of wait, I feel like a good crib session will do me good too.
Chill out and enjoy the weather....after weeks of awfully low temp., the sun is out and the weather is glorious.:)

First of all EAD is not a status - Its just a work authorization. GC is for a future job.
With EAD, you can work with your current gc employer, or do nothing, or do any other job.
The only important thing is that you must either be working in a same/similar job for any employer (using AC21) or have a valid job offer in the same/similar job classification as on the labor certification at the time of 485 adjucation. It is easy to get rfe if you are no longer working for the sponsoring employer.
At that time, you should not be actively searching for a job - You should have a job offer which shows the employer's intent to hire you on a future date.
This is correct.......once the employer revokes H1B, that is a red flag for the immigration officer. Officer may or may not ask for evidence. Be prepared to show a same or similar job offer.
