I believe they are referring to asylum cases. If someone obtains PR after filing for asylum, they might encounter challenges when applying for citizenship. However, anyone who entered the USA with a valid visa, such as H1 or L1, and later gets PR should have no issues when applying for citizenship.

For topic discussed around minute 15 of the video - Reg. H4/H4 EAD processing with H1, with the Edakunni v. Mayorkas ruling of Jan 2023, the H4/H4EAD processing happens alongside the parent H1B, be it premium or standard. With this ruling, they are no longer decoupled. My wife got her H4/H4 EAD along with my H1 earlier this year. It's a court ruling/settlement agreement, so my opinion is that the new administration would need to have some new tricks if they want to try to decouple them again.
Edakunni v. Mayorkas ruling has an expiration date of Jan 18, 2025 as per the same settlement text. After that date USCIS would no longer be required to adjudicate H1/H4/H4EAD together, as the case has been as per this ruling. Please validate this information that I provided here!
@JNPUS wow.. did not know about the expiry date... new administration will take it back to days of crazy delays for sure. Hope they dont undo the 540 days extension part earlier than they were going to do.
99% h4 are on job on fake resume n fake experience Trump gov will tackle both these fraud categories in a very trick way Just wait n watch Citizenship by birth will be scrap too
Hello Mandar, Thank you for great videos. My EB1 PD is 2022 April 5th. Do you think the PD can get current in the next January bulletin? Filing EAD now after seeing your videos😊
Hi Mandar! We are a 501c3 nonprofit church and I want to say thank you for the information you are providing! Very helpful! I did notice that you haven't done a new R1 (EB4 I believe). I'd love to see if they have any changes since then! I know we have been a 501c3 for 1 year and I want to be prepared and start now because the immigrant has to wait 3 years and certain countries are taking longer than others from what I understand. Anyways, appreciate your work on this! thank you!
Hi Mandar, We are traveling to India for our H1 and H4 visa stamping, with a Dropbox appointment scheduled for February 11, 2025. Would you recommend visiting Canada before January 20 to complete the stamping process there instead? Thanks.
Awesome, good information, Appreciate your time and providing insight. I applied for h4 ead for my wife and hope it will get approved before my h1b get expired
Hello Mandar. Based on your recommendation, I did premium filing of my EB1A and just got it approved. My PD is 2nd August 2024. By When do you think the I485 filing date will be available for me? My L1A will max out in Jan 2029. Second question, do you think EAD will be given to I140 approved cases in the Trump organization? Look forward to your reply.
Hi Mandar Thank you so much for providing so much detail. I have a question I have applied for 485, green card in eb2, when it was current I got advance parole and EAD, but not the actual green card. Do I need to still extend my hb1? Thank you
Hi- If at all Trump Administration eliminates country per cap limit for issuing Permanent Residency (via DOGE assuming), how will the EB categories get differentiated and what benefit would be for really extraordinary people?
Hi Mandar, if a L2S visa holder who has EAD and AP approved and waiting for AoS is laid off from the job and applies for unemployment benefit, will this is a problem for AoS?
To your question on the USCIS update - Before this update, immigrants applying for U.S. citizenship had to prove they were lawfully admitted to the U.S. as permanent residents during all entries or reentries into the country. This was confusing, especially for those who traveled abroad and returned multiple times. With the new policy, USCIS will only look at whether you were lawfully admitted or adjusted to lawful permanent resident (LPR) status during your first admission or adjustment. You no longer need to prove lawful status for any trips or reentries after that.
Mandar could you pls add new topic whether is it fine to attend visa stamping in Mexico after trump started on January 2025. Please let us know your thoughts
Hello Mandar. Very informative video. Thanks for that. I am just curious about how travel outside and come into US on GC EAD? Will that have any impact? Thank You.
AP is not a guarantee. Read the fine prints. Everything related to immigration is stipulated so stop being fearful. If you have not done anything wrong then you shouldn’t have any problem.
Trump vetoed a bill passed by a Republican Senate in 2020 that would have resolved these issues. The idea that only Trump can do it when he was the one who prevented it from being fixed in the first place is hilarious.
Hi Mandar- as always very insightful video…On H4 EAD, if they revoke is it possible that anyone who has their EAD active or being processed will get cancelled with immediate effect? Or does that get revoked post the last date of the currently active EAD?
@@anirban251981 I think it will be revoked for sure since they are protecting usa citizens. It can be done with immediate effect or may be make long wait for h4 ead.
Hi Mandar Sir. Thanks for providing this useful information. Could you make comments on my situation? I came in the US in April 2019 on J1 to do post doctoral studies as I have a PhD in Bio Science. After 5 years I got approved H1b sponsored by my University recently. My visa stamping is yet to be done and I got my consular appointment in mid February 2025. May I expect some problem having the visa stamped during that time? The question remains the same for my family for dependent visa. Thanks in advance.
Mandat , my question is on L1A extension. My visa valid till August 2025 which is about months later from now, Can i file L1A extension long before 6 months in premium .
I always look up your videos for update! Our government has no idea how people are suffering these days. I feel for people in crypto market tjat has no mentor and not getting the help they deserve, Thank you Mrs Holly Wright imagine investing $25,000 and receiving $100,300
Thanks, Mandar. After I saw your video last week. I filed my H1B in my premium and was approved in 4 days. Thanks!
Awesome!!

Thanks Mandar ji🙏🙏
you are welcome
Awesome, good information, Appreciate your time and providing insight. I applied for h4 ead for my wife and hope it will get approved before my h1b get expired
Do you think the new Dept. of Government Efficiency will make USCIS and DOL more efficient and improve their turnaround times? 😛
Mandar - keep up the good work and looking for forward to future videos!

Excellent video mandar.
Do you think some sort of EAGLE Act will pass to remove country cap on GC ?
I think very likely. I am planning to make an update on the per country cap removal possibility in my next video.
@@MandarKasture appreciate it mandar.
Thanks Mandar
Better stop day dreaming. Definitely not happening with Trump
I filed my i-485 and its in CRP despite my PD being current, hopefully i will get approved soon before Trump comes to office
He can still strip you in retrospect if it’s not legitimate
@ it in eb2 category and legitimate sponsor
My Visa is going to expire in Sep25 should I file for an extension?
Hi Mandar
Thank you so much for providing so much detail.
I have a question
I have applied for 485, green card in eb2, when it was current
I got advance parole and EAD, but not the actual green card.
Do I need to still extend my hb1?
Thank you
It should be all non immigrant visa holders.
Hello mandar - Thank you for your videos are there any updates on the in country H1B extension that was being spoken about?
Hi- If at all Trump Administration eliminates country per cap limit for issuing Permanent Residency (via DOGE assuming), how will the EB categories get differentiated and what benefit would be for really extraordinary people?
The audio is only playing in single channel (left), please fix this in upcoming videos.
Yes sorry about that. Some technical glitch on my part. Will fix it in the upcoming video
Thank you @@MandarKasture , You're the best.
Love the content
Thank you

What about GC Ead and AP extensions? Do you see any impact there ?
To your question on the USCIS update -

Indians, Latinos and Orientals voted for trump and hope he does what he says he will. Let's go Donald
Donald will stay here and let THEM😂 go!
check your audio before uploading.. i can hear only from one side (right side).. tried with multiple headphones..
Any update on stamping in USA?.?
Hi Mandar, What happened to valid H4 EAD? Will it get revoked with immediate effect or will not be renewed after validity ?
Mandar could you pls add new topic whether is it fine to attend visa stamping in Mexico after trump started on January 2025. Please let us know your thoughts
Right now so many people are going to
Mexico for visa stamping . Is it safe to go on March 2025 after trump started his presidency
Sure will do
@@MandarKasturethank you
thank you again for another great video! being on H4 EAD is very stressful though I can do any job I like
How about O1 extension they are limited to 1 year extension anyhow at a time ! Do you think they will also be impacted during trump administration?
Hello Mandar. Very informative video. Thanks for that. I am just curious about how travel outside and come into US on GC EAD? Will that have any impact? Thank You.
I think you mean Advance Parole. As long as it is valid you should have no problem coming back
Yes sir..i meant AP. Thank You for your quick response
AP is not a guarantee. Read the fine prints.
Everything related to immigration is stipulated so stop being fearful. If you have not done anything wrong then you shouldn’t have any problem.
how long take to get EB1
Hi Mandar the session in calendly is a one to one private session with you ?
Yes you can book with Calendly : calendly.com/mandarkasture/talk-to-mandar
Is it a one to one private session with you ?
I'm more hopeful from Trump being a an legal immigrant stuck in GC backlog,
Status quo on GC backlog can be broken by someone Like T only.
Trump vetoed a bill passed by a Republican Senate in 2020 that would have resolved these issues.
The idea that only Trump can do it when he was the one who prevented it from being fixed in the first place is hilarious.

Thanks and welcome
@@MandarKasture sir, what are chances if they start allow EAD for H1B holders who waited long for green card ?
Why big spillover in 2025 October? Can't understand. Please explain
New visas are allocated each year, and USCIS FY starts from October.
Able to listen only on the left side earphone. Seems like voice encoded only for left.

No audio for part of video
Your audio system is poor
Yes I messed up on this video and will correct it
You disclose that ur not a immigration lawyer, but I do not think you r any less than one.
Can't hear a thing
no voice ?
sorry about the mono voice. No stereo as I messed up the audio
