I'm in my 9th year of H1B which is going to expire in about six months. My employer is suggesting to extend H1B and not use or extend EAD. Based on your experience and knowledge please post your advise. If a post like this already exists, please point me to that. I could not find one easily. Thanks a lot.

I am hearing a lot of cases of RFE. I experienced the same when my best friends case recvd an RFE. They asked all sorts of questions. After filing a reply, there was no update for over a month.
Eventually, her lawyer re-filed the case with same center, with same set of documents (every single document was the same) under premium processing.
The same center approved her H-1B in 3 days flat. No questions asked. I guess they are looking for a legal bribe of premium processing fees :D

India develops world's cheapest 'laptop' at $35 - dnaindia.com (http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report_india-develops-world-s-cheapest-laptop-at-35_1413493)
New Delhi: India has come up with the world's cheapest laptop, a touch-screen computing device that will cost just $35.
Human resource development minister, Kapil Sibal, this week unveiled the low-cost computing device that is designed for students, saying his department had started talks with global manufacturers to start mass production.
"We have reached a (developmental) stage, that today the motherboard, its chip, its processing, connectivity, all of them cumulatively cost around $35, including memory, display, everything," he told a news conference.
He said the touch-screen gadget was packed with internet browsers, PDF reader and video conferencing facilities, but its hardware was created with sufficient flexibility to incorporate new components according to user requirement.
Sibal said the Linux-based computing device was expected to be introduced to higher education institutions from 2011, but the aim was to drop the price further to $20 and ultimately to $10.
The device was developed by research teams at India's premier technological institutes, the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) and the Indian Institute of Science.
India spends about three% of its annual budget on school education and has improved its literacy rates to over 64% of its 1.2 billion population, but studies have shown that many students can barely read or write and most state-run schools have inadequate facilities.

I suppose your pd has been current for a while now. are you stuck in name check ? do you know why your 485 approval is taking so long ? I'd say you should be getting your GC rather than the ead card.
And why does your public profile say Labor Approval Date: 05/10/2005 where as in your post you say PD is Feb 2002.
Labor filed date is Feb 2002. Thats is what called PD. Fortunately it took only 3.8 yrs to get my LC approval. Some poor souls got their LC approval in 4 yrs and 5yrs.
I don't know if you heard about PBEC and DBEC. I am one of the victims of backlog elimination center.
Anyway my name check is still pending. But if they really implement this 180 day rule, my case is good to go.

Pelosi reconfirms taking on immigration, but the Senate has to start it. She went on to say, the House passed climate and energy legislation last year, but it has not acted on immigration reform.
�If the Senate is ready with an immigration bill, we don�t want anybody holding it up for any reason,� Pelosi (D-Calif.) told reporters at her weekly press conference. �Send it to us.�
Pelosi: House won't object to moving immigration first - TheHill.com (http://thehill.com/homenews/house/93733-hoyer-casts-doubt-on-immigration-moving-ahead-of-climate-change)
Asked if she could get the votes on immigration (in the House), Pelosi replied, �I believe so.�

Thanks for the link. It is really very helpful.
That is another risk of AC21. Remember that AC21 is just a rule and can be changed anytime. For example, the current AC21 rule is not requiring proof of ability to pay of the new employer. What if in the future they change the rules of the game and you are in the middle of it, you found out that your new employer is not cooperating regarding sending documents, etc.
Darn, am I stupid or what? I felt am I just chicken or am I just being wise?
Probable change in AC21 rules are these additional requirements:
1. New employer's ability to pay
2. New LC for the same occupation
The more we talk of using AC21 even before 180 days, the more USCIS will suspect of fraud.

As far as I know, NO he cannot.
That's correct. I clarified it with my attorney in past. Primary applicant has to maintain H-1 status to support H-4 for the spouse and he cannot use EAD to work.

I spoke with A CSR at NSC and she said she could n't confirm if the address has been updated or not since it is private information and she doesn't have access to it.
I asked her about my EAD card.
She took my reciept# ,checked the status and asked me to give the new address and said she sent request for the card to be resent.
Is this how they do it ?
So do I need to talk to IIO to see of my address is updated or not?
Thank you.

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.

Hello,
One of the clients is not considering EAD as a valid document to enter their facilities. Funny thing is their security team are ok if you have valid visa and I94 but not EAD.
I think this is more of ignorance about EAD.
Can some provide doucumentation which says discrimination of EAD is violation of Law? or some thing that says EAD is a valid document to work adn stay in the country.
You can show them I-9 form where it list EAD as acceptable document for proof of employment eligibility.

Thanks for the effort. Obviously it is not their interest to release the data, that's why we need to figure out a way to force them to discose such data. I think it's possible to get a court order to request such data.
It takes years and months to get a request fulfilled under FOIA. In this administration, run of the mill govt agencies have been given even more latitude in fulfilling FOIA requests -- forget about the DOS and its response to FOIA requests. Perhaps I didn't make myself clear -- even other agencies within the government who don't need FOIA are unable to make this happen. Do see the magnitude of the problem?
The only way to break the logjam is through political pressure.
Again, I'd say, please don't assume the IV people who have been working on these issues are naive or lack information. ;-)
