I guess filing the EAD incorrectly would cause a denial instead of an RFE. But I guess we (even he) won't know the real reason unless he can get his hands on a copy of that denial letter he never received.
Thanks,

If you could make more money and have a similar quality of life somewhere else, you'd be there.
What status did your enter under before seeking to adjust? I imagine if she had come with a K-1 or an immigrant visa she would have her work authorization and green card *years* ago.
I agree that INS/BCIS/USCIS are often slow, disorganized, rude, and even incompetant, but that's the way the system is. Don't take it personally. They get bombarded with bogus applications by the thousand and are lied to all day long. Blame all of the scumbags with fraudulent applications for slowing things down.
I do hope your status gets sorted out soon though. It sounds like you've waited too long.
Good luck.

As to my business, I wouldn't have to hire one single American worker if I didn't want to. I can hire foreign workers here in NY and have everything made in China or elsewhere cheaper than the US. The reason why I want to give US workers opportunities is that I want to share what I have, i.e. I make money in this country, so I create job opps & give them to the ppl of this country too. I remember one sweet American lady in Missouri who lost her job in manufacturing because some smucks in NY were too busy playing "solitaire" all day long, intead of generating sales. She is the type that I want to help.
I came here on an H-1B, didn't think I'd be here longer than 2 yrs. Now I have a wife & kid so I guess I belong here.
Thanks for your wishes!
