JNJOE Posted October 4, 2018 Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 Hi, My GC (EB1C) was filed on Feb-2018 (Concurrent filing i-140, i-485 etc..). My i-140 was approved on Sep-2018 and i-485 was picked up for processing on Sep-2018 and with NBC now. I'm waiting for my interview date from my local USCIS office as the next step. There was no i-485 J (supplement) was filed in my case yet. My Question is 1. Do I have to file the i-485 J in my case? 2. If i dont have the i-485 J filed before my GC interview, Will there be any negative impact? 3. If I dont have the i-485 J filed before my GC interview, Will the letter from my employer support my employment? Thanks Joe Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted October 4, 2018 Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 ""Supplement J is a seven-page form that must be completed and signed by certain applicants for adjustment of status based on an I-140 immigrant petition, employers seeking to employ such applicants, and persons preparing the form on behalf of the applicant and employer. Supplement J must be filed when an adjustment of status Form I-485 application is filed separately from an underlying I-140 immigrant petition; when an adjustment of status application seeks to take advantage of the job portability mechanism provided in Section 204(j) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) to move to a new job in an occupational classification that is the same as, or similar to, that of the position described in the I-140 petition; or when USCIS issues a Request for Evidence (RFE) or Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID) asking for evidence of an existing job offer. Please note that Supplement J need not be filed when an I-485 application is filed concurrently with an I-140 petition or when the adjustment of status application is based on an immigrant petition seeking classification as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability or seeking a National Interest Waiver. Applicants for adjustment of status who are beneficiaries of family based immigrant petitions also need not file Supplement J."" Link to comment
JNJOE Posted October 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 Hi, From the explanation you have given, I understand that, I don't have to file i-485 J unless RFE from USCIS in my case as the i-485 was filed concurrent with i-140. Thanks for Your time and reply. Joe Link to comment
