Hey Guys,
I am currently on my 6th year of H1B (expires Nov 25th 2008)
My Labor/ I-140 has been approved.
I even submitted my I-485 to the Nebraska office in July, 2007
I even received a notification for fingerprinting on Aug 30th 2007 and completed it.
My agency is going to apply for an H1B extension as I am allowed 3 years extension based on visa numbers not being available.
I never applied for my EAD/AP, as my lawyer suggested H1B extension should be the route I take.
I have read posts that suggest it is taking awfully long (some said up to 6 months) for H1B extensions to come through. I have a little over 3 months left before my current H1 expires.
So I was wondering:
1) If I should apply for the EAD/AP to have as a backup?
2) If I am eligible to file electronically?
3) How long does EAD/AP take?
4) Which Service Center should I be applying at? My I-485 is at Nebraska Service Center.
Please help.
