I was out of the US when my H1 was applied for. I am still out of the
country but my H1 petition has been approved though I don't have it in
hand. I assume it will be a I-797 without the I-94.
I am going for H4 visa at a consulate in my home country.

Does anyone know if its in any way possible to tell Immigration at
which time you would like to go in for the biometric appointment ? We

- mid-January or so. Even though it seems there's no hard and ...

My dad had two I-140 petitions that got denied. He also had an I-485
that was tied to those two.  We haven't heard from I-485 yet, but it
should get denied as well since there are no grounds to keep it.  I had
an EAD that was issued based on I-485 and it expires on 04/11/07.

Our I-485 got denied while mom is outside of U.S. and is planning on
coming by a parole document issued to her based on the 485 petition.
Parole  obviously doesn't expire until the end of the year I think.
Will she be able to come back to U.S>
