He will be out of status. Your 3 year extension beyond the allowed 6 years is based on that LC/I-140 from which your I-485 was filed. If the I-485 is rejected you have no right to stay beyond 6 years....
Total BS and Incorrect.
One can work on current H-1B (irrespective on basis it was approved), until the H-1B petition is revoked or canceled or expired. However, beneficiary is not eligible for new/extension of H-1B after I-485 denial.

stucklabor,
Thanks for your post. It's good to hear the perspective of a core member of IV like yourself. I understand your point of view but respectfully disagree with your definition of the greatest good. The greatest good will not be achieved by just passing the labor cert. stage. The greatest good is achieved once we have the GC card. Your effort on retrogression to benefit 250k & 200k is plausible. But you help them to pass one bridge, to just get stuck on the next. If there are 25k people stuck in name check at this time, imagine what will happen when the estimated 200k-250k reach that stage.
If the 25k spent in average 3 years in the name check, what will be the wait time for that massive population that are headed that way after retrog & labor cert? The EB process is a big picture and the greatest number will not get the greatest good until all these obstacle are resolved all the way to the end.
sroym, i think the point stucklabor was trying to make is, that currently most of the people are stuck in retrogression and labour which makes things far more unbearable than actually having an EAD/AP and such benefits. There is a whole thread on this discussion where members of all nationalities have complained about IV not taking the FBI name check issue seriously. I think the moot point that IV core members are focussing on is, the fact that retrogression is making life unbearable for just about everyone. Plus given the following facts:
1) A Serious Majority of the IV members are affected more by retrogression+labor as compared to FBI name checks. and
2) IV core members have full time jobs and spouses and are working pro-bono for the good of everyone and money collected is also coming in slowly and thorugh the IV members themselves.
These 2 facts mean that both time and money is at a premium and they have to spend it solving the problem they originally started to solve. Believe me, some of the core members themselves are stuck with the FBI name check issue for the past 2 years or so.
Given all these facts, you have to understand where IV and it's mission/policy stands. To my understanding the policy is "One step at a time".

Recent update from Murthy seems to confirm our theory that I-140 has to be approved to interfile
Interfiling Issues : Cannot Switch I-140 Petition from Primary to Dependent
�MurthyDotCom
Interfiling is a procedure that allows an applicant to change the I-140 petition upon which the I-485 is based. Essentially, the I-485 is filed based on an I-140 petition, but the applicant wants to proceed through a new or different I-140 petition. Interfiling permits the individual to "switch" the I-140 upon which the I-485 is based.
�MurthyDotCom
In a scenario where both husband and wife have independent I-140 petitions filed by their respective employers, and where there is a set of I-485s (one for the primary spouse and one for the derivative spouse) filed with regard to one of the I-140s, there is no option of interfiling based upon an I-140 approval for the derivative spouse. This is because the roles of derivative spouse and primary applicant would have to be reversed in this situation. There is no mechanism when interfiling to shift applications from derivative to primary and from primary to derivative, therefore making them improperly filed with the other I-140 petition. Of course, if the same person has an EB3 and now an EB2 I-140 petition, the USCIS will allow the EB2 I-140 approval to replace the previously-filed EB3 I-140 petition approval.

Actual daily press and wire service photographers will undoubtly use 4mp. You may not be aware, but all the goreous 2 column color shots you see on USA Today etc. are printed from files that are usually 700k - 800k. There are heavily compressed for transmitting. All the wires do that. They don't get full files. The most attractive things to me are the high ISO performance, the ability to customize colorspace amd I'm anxious to test the new autofocus capabilities. The 8 mp is a plus for shooting for a mag or other output. Even at that, I've had 1D shots as a glossey mag color that looked great. One advantage higher megapixels give a sportshooter is for sports like football. Due to the size of the field, the ability to crop more gives you more field coverage. But then the question is will you have enough time to work with files that are twice the size. I'm sure that's why Canon listened and gave us 4 MP as an option.
I don't doubt what you say on iota and I've heard stories from the Day in the life of africa talking about the abilities of digital. But I also know the ability of this world to adapt and grow. Today people ay complain about file size but who knows tomorrow. And what about when thos same PJ's want that image for other form factors than may require greater resolution? It's an evolving world and its pretty short sided to believe that a certain file size is all that will be used.

You've ever heard of kamikaze missions help by Japanese pilots during world war 2?
They were suicide missions to bomb American targets (like Pearl Harbor) knowing very well they will not come back alive. They would crash their planes into enemy targets laden with a lot of explosives.
Go figure!
I agree with FaniMiBanana. I do not think any reason one can come up with in any desperate situation is "legitimate" enough to take ones own life in my opinion.

I don't know exactly what AC 21 regulations are.I just want to follow any best Lawyer's advice in this matter.
h12gc
Your GC is your responsibility. Better to know all AC 21 regulations and act accordingly. Lawyers do goof up. I suggest you take conservative stand unless you are ready to take any risk. Personally I am risk averse as far as GC is concerned. Think whether the extra dough or career change is much needed for you.
The job title Technical Recruiter itself is like painting target on the shirt and going into the field. I think RFE is guaranteed.

We have limited time and we have to achieve a lot. Our time and efforts should be utilized in a much better way, don't you agree? I appreciate your posting of your links. And what is your point? Include as a small comment or note at the top. It is easy for any one to 'google' conference, immigration and bill to come up with a few thousand good and relevant link. If I post a good number of them, one would definitely be lost.
Posting links should serve a purpose here. The primary purpose is achieving IV goals. A smaller purpose could be to see what the other side is saying, but my suggestion is to ignore them in general.
I went to both the links; one of the I understand is a Libertarian organization and the other radical left. As anyone can see, they don't represent the views of mainstream America. So, it is a waste of time and effort and above all a distraction here. That's my advice.

My wifes' application is in the same situation (though mine is clear). I sent (through attorney) proof of check encashment from the bank and also a new check for $70.
Attoney gave these options
1) Send ONLY proof of check encashment - This could lead to delay in Processing till they find the locate the missing check and account it
2) Send proof of check + $70 - They may or may not encash the new check. If they resolve the issue without encashing the new check, it's well and good. If they do encash it and the issue is resolved - well, it's still better than her application getting rejected over $70 [ Of course MTR and other actions can be taken, but didn't think it was worth it]
Attorney response has reached them. Waiting for the change in her application status ( God only knows when it'll get changed)

2) Currently your status is H1 , if you use AP then ur status will becom Parolee and if you use EAD then "???"
Incorrect.
Just using AP does NOT invalidates H1 status. Using EAD does.
I double checked with my attorney , either or AP or EAD usage will change your status, ie H1 is no more valid.

Reversal Frustrates
Green-Card Applicants
By MIRIAM JORDAN
July 5, 2007; Page A2
The government's surprise offer, then abrupt reversal, of an opportunity for thousands of skilled foreign workers to obtain permanent residency in the U.S. highlights the problems of the overtaxed immigration system and the frenzy that results from a chance to apply for a green card.
The scramble has put tens of thousands of workers and their families in limbo after many of them and their employers spent thousands of dollars in hopes of securing permanent residency. It may result in a class-action lawsuit against the government by frustrated applicants.
The problem began on June 12 when the government seemed to open the door for thousands of foreign workers and their families to end the long wait to apply for a green card. That is when the State Department published a Visa Bulletin, which is a monthly notice closely watched by immigration attorneys and their clients because it determines who is eligible to file a green-card application the next month. The June bulletin announced that practically all skilled foreign workers who had been previously deemed eligible for an employer-sponsored visa could now take the final step of applying for a green card.
By law, the U.S. can issue about 140,000 employment-based green cards each year. Last year, the government fell short by about 10,000, despite the long waiting list; leftover visas cannot be rolled over to the next year. The June announcement aimed to prevent the visa slot from going to waste, according to a State Department spokeswoman.
The announcement was greeted with a mix of jubilation and panic by thousands of engineers, lab scientists and other high-skilled foreigners who had waited years for their place in line. Working ahead of a July 2 date for filing the application, intending immigrants rushed to gather documents, complete paperwork and obtain medical exams. Many of their dependents boarded planes for the U.S. to meet a requirement that all family members be present at the time of filing.
"The bulletin created a land rush among legal immigrants desperate to finalize their green-card applications," said Steve Miller, a Seattle-based immigration attorney.
Then, on July 2, the State Department issued an "update" that reversed the previous bulletin. It stated, effective immediately, there would be no further authorizations for employment-based cases. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, which processes the applications, said it would instead simply process existing applications to meet this year's quota. "We already had sufficient applications pending without new applicants...," a spokesman said.
Mike Aytes, head of domestic operations for the USCIS, said all 147,141 employment-based green cards have now been issued for the year.
