Lauren Conrad, Kyle Howard Split

June 24, 2011, ( Sawf News ) - Luren Conrad and her boyfriend of three years, Kyle Howard, have decided to split.

"Sources close to the now ex-duo confirm that the breakup was a mutual decision and that no third parties were involved." E! reports.

The 25-year-old reality TV actress, fashion designer and author of fashion books had been dating 33-year-old My Boys actor since 2008.

Though the couple was often spotted together at Hollywood events, Conrad kept her romance apart from her reality TV show, The Hills, unlike in the past.

"By the time I had met Kyle, I had already perfected my 'double life,'" she told Seventeen in 2010. "There was my TV life and my real life."

Earlier this year, there were rumors of the couple being engaged, but Conrad's rep refuted the report: "This is totally false." the rep told Us magazine.

Conrad was recently hired as columnist by Forbes online magazine. She justifies her enviable position of "celebpreneur" columnist in her first column:

"Many of you are probably wondering why you should take a person like me seriously as an entrepreneur. For me, it's pretty clear: I run two clothing lines, two web sites and a book franchise on top of directly managing my brand and endorsement deals. I've made a career out of allowing cameras to capture my personal life but that doesn't make me "just another reality star" looking to start a clothing line. "

Your questions are valid....but either way, you must enter US ASAP on your AP (or have someone mail ytou your GC). The issue is that you are NOT totally free once you get GC because immediately leaving your sponsoring employer is a no-no and can cause your GC to be revoked or be an issue at the time of citizenship. It is advisable to stick to the employer for 6mts to 1 year after GC - if the employer is still functioning. Also, USCIS has increased employment place visits for recent GC approvals. :) USCIS is a fee-based organization with about 90% of its budget coming from fees paid by applicants and petitioners to obtain immigration benefits. The law requires USCIS to conduct fee reviews every two years to determine whether its costs to administer the nation�s immigration laws, process application, and provide the infrastructure needed to support those activities. A fee adjustment, as detailed in the proposed rule, is necessary to ensure that the USCIS recovers the cost of their operations while also meeting the application processing goals identified in the 2007 fee rule. The other day had a friend at my place and I felt like throwing him out of my house. These guys are crying by their asses days and night. Believe me he is the guys whose wife drives him to work because his DL expired and PA DOT is not issuing him License because he has less than 1 year visa. But he was talking this government, that government..... I asked him to keep quiet and watch, if we are successful you'll get a free ride, if not then keep crying through your ass, you're doing it anyway!!!!

As the DOL does not currently have a processing schedule for PERM applications, we are unable to predict how long processing will take. In the past, PERM applications have been adjudicated anywhere from a few weeks to several months. Unfortunately, there is currently no way for beneficiaries to check the status of the application. We will contact you as soon as we hear anything specific regarding your case.
