是否交了 485 后就不存在身份违例了？ out of status

比如我4/2/2021 H1b 过期， ontimely file extension 根据240 天的rule 工作到11/19/2021，期间7/1/2021 file 485，就算这个H1b extension 被denied，我的oos只是4/2/2021-7/1/2021 吧。file 485 之后的 签证过期自动算AOS。这样还是可以用245（k) exemption的对吧。
感谢。

有的朋友说我因为没有status 不能file 485 应该是不对哈。
USCIS policy manual里有明确的例子是可以。

January 31, 2012
The H-1B’s nonimmigrant authorized stay expires, as indicated on the Arrival/Departure Record (Form I-94).
May 1, 2012
An employment-based petition and adjustment application are concurrently filed for the noncitizen.
July 15, 2012
Both the petition and the application are approved and the noncitizen is adjusted to a permanent resident.

他们的指引是：
The noncitizen filed for adjustment three months after H-1B status terminated.
Since the noncitizen is an employment-based adjustment applicant and his three-month violation following his last lawful admission did not exceed 180 days, the noncitizen is exempted from the INA 245(c)(2) bar.

是的是的是的

对啊，aos

File 485那天需要有合法的身份 （pending不算）
如果extension被拒，那7/1那天就是OOS，会导致485被拒

employment based 用245（k)的话，允许file时没有。

E. Employment-Based Exemption under INA 245(k)

January 31, 2012

The H-1B’s nonimmigrant authorized stay expires, as indicated on the Arrival/Departure Record (Form I-94).

An employment-based petition and adjustment application are concurrently filed for the noncitizen.

July 15, 2012

the noncitizen filed for adjustment three months after H-1B status terminated.

不是的，你4月2号到7月1号的身份是pending的，不是H1，严格来说这个时间段并不能file 485，只有H、F或者L visa在valid的日期里才能file 485，你extension被拒就会导致你是在OOS的日子里file 485的，485会被拒

看我上面的帖子哈。

245（k)允许 employment based 绿卡file前没有status，只要不超过180天。

他们uscis 的policy manual里有例子哈。H1b expired 3 months then filed 485 then approved
245（k)可以exempt的bar 包括

245(c)(2) bars
In Unlawful Immigration Status on the Date the Adjustment Application is Filed
Who Failed to Continuously Maintain Lawful Status Since Entry into United States[107]
Who Continues in, or Accepts, Unauthorized Employment Prior to Filing for Adjustment
245(c)(7) bar
Seeking Adjustment in an Employment-based Immigrant Category and Not in a Lawful Nonimmigrant Status
245(c)(8) bar
Who has Otherwise Violated the Terms of a Nonimmigrant Visa[119]
Who has Ever Engaged in Unauthorized Employment[120]

估计这里也没几个人用过245K appeal 485，楼主还是跟律师讨论吧

我律师跟我找的别的律师解答不太一样，跟我的理解也不一样。班上有律师朋友也欢迎指教哈。

不需要用245k去appeal，本身就允许eb绿卡申请者有180天以内的overstay，485不会因此被拒。
