Indians in San Francisco Bay Area

I have an approved EB-2 NIW with a current priority date and am currently outside the U.S., affected by the immigrant visa pause. I can enter on H-4.

Can I enter the U.S., file I-485, and then leave until biometrics, or would that be considered abandonment? If it is, can I refile later when I’m able to stay in the U.S. full time?

What would be the best strategy in this situation?

What part of the Bay Area are you in?

A woman is suing some super-fancy SF apartments, claiming they totally missed (or ignored) the fact that a 17-year-old was being sex trafficked right under their luxury noses. The lawsuit says the owners of Avalon Mission Bay and South Beach Marina Apartments knew what was going on — yet the only thing they upgraded was the rent.

Which one is your favourite among this list to do?

- Holiday lights,
- SF SketchFest comedy,
- Candlelight concerts art shows.
- Union Square jaa ke ice skating,
- Golden Gate Park mein Entwined lights,
- SFMOMA museums and Alcatraz.

Layoffs continue in the Bay Area, with a major San Francisco–based tech company reportedly cutting 1,000 jobs, and Meta announcing more than 200 additional job cuts.

I’m currently in H-1B status but do not have a valid visa stamp in my passport. I do have an approved EAD/AP card. If I need to travel to Switzerland for about two weeks for work, would it be advisable to reenter the U.S. using Advance Parole? Have you handled similar situations, and are there any risks I should be aware of?
