Thanks for the reply. Here's why it becomes more complicated. I asked my attorney about starting a new EB2 process (I have a MS from US). However, the attorney says he doesn't recommend starting a new PERM process as he strongly believes that this will affect the current EB3 I-140 application. He feels that USCIS will look at the ongoing EB3 application and deem it unnecessary to approve it (as I would have applied for a different position for EB2). Hence I might lose my PD !!
He suggests that I wait till my EB I-140 is approved. But that might take another year considering the slow NSC processing times!!
Any suggestions?

This is an excellent book .. a must read for all those xenophobes, restrictionists and lawmakers who believe we steal american jobs.
Wonder if contacting the author David Heenan will be of any help ?

Hi,
I've been in US for over a year on my L1b Visa. Last year i applied for my H1B visa and got through in the loottery. My Visa became effective Oct08. I still have net left my L1 company and nor have got my H1B Visa stamped. Its been 6 months since the VISA is effective. What should I do now, Im not getting jobs outside and also the L1 company is more secure from the job perspective. Should I just revoke my H1B or is it ok to live in the US like this?
Thanks
Leave US asap and re-enter using L1 visa stamp to get back into L1 status.

by the way the reason that strobe is tricky (I didn't say on previos post). is that you can't see the exact efect of the lighting through the camera

Well, Anders, we've determined that you can capture a bird in flight as long as it has a stick in it's neck so you can keep it in track. (kidding) Not many things in nature are perfectly round, straight, and sharp, sot this is man-made. We have good views in shots 2 and 5 showing it entered from the front and never came out. I'm guessing it flew into a dowel that someone was using for whatever. Maybe attached to a dock, or on rocks, or even in a local dump. Whatever it was, the bird would have crashed into it with pretty good force. That leads me to believe it was attached to something and the bird came in to land straight on, so the profile was just a dot.

Well, It is good that you believe there is even a slim chance that Dec '06 will become current !!! I do not think so at least this FY '11. Sorry for my pessimistic outlook !!! But that is the case.
If your 485 is approved, while your Spouse on H4 is out of country, who has not yet filed 485 and do not have AP, will not be able to travel as the non-immigration visa is void once your become a LPR. You might have to do a Consular process or file following-to-join you which could take significant time. It is better, she return immediately on H4 once you know your date will be current for following month in Visa Bulletin as Dept. of state at least release this data couple weeks ahead, Else you might end freeing a visa number to some one on line after you in EB2 category or for an EB3 person upgrading to EB2 :)
For immigration issues, my suggestion will always be to get counsel from an attorney then forum as each case is different.

I took some photos today in poor light (please, sun...) and had to use ISO 800 to get decent shutter speeds. However, I find this isn't really useful with small birds as the noise basically covers a lot of detail. I find it difficult to on the one hand remove enough noise from the background so sharpening doesn't amplify it too much, and on the other hand leave enough noise so the feather details don't get smoothed out. So, what I did was use the magnetic lasso tool to select the bird (and inversely everything else), and used more Neat Image on the background than on the bird. I wonder if this couldn't be a trick to save some borderline images.
I'd appreciate if you'd critique these two images: do they look very unnatural to you? It does give almost a 3D effect, but I think I may have gone too far on the backgrounds.

This a good beginning to pass sub commitee in House. Chances are more in passing house if it comes to floor. Will it come? Actually anti immigrants were late in reacting sub commitee but they are targeting Senate more aggressively than house. Might be their aim is to filibuster in Senate with a few Senators.Time is a problem now. Only a few weeks are available before dec. May be if they cut short debates it is possible to pass as law. Looks like house leadership is determined to pass. Still the house bill tells that implementation will be on next fiscal year. If the bill is signed as law after oct it will be implemented on oct 2009 unless they change the date
Congress has gone into unscheduled recess till Sept 8th. Then it'll be too close to elections. Once new congress is seated, all bills introduced before then will not have any standing. So, let's be realistic and not get too excited.

Hi, we applied to transfer my wife's out of state driving license to CT state but the application was denied.
The reasoning was that DMV's immigration check came back stating that her status is H4 but the documents we are carrying are EAD, I 485 receipt etc. She is using her EAD so we didn't renew her H4 along with my H1B.
At infopass we were told there is not much USCIS can do since we are still waiting for adjustment (I 485 pending) to Permanent residence status. DMV doesn't buy this argument as they insist her status should be 'pending application' .
We (immigrant community) will probably face more and more of these issues as long as we have retrogression.
Any one faced similar situation.? I have contacted Senators office regarding this bureaucracy and still waiting for response.
radhay..i guess it differs from state to state. i was in a similar situation..h4 before and now working on EAD. i got my dirving license renewed in CA without any problem..just showed them my EAD card.

Filing the application to port as seperate after the 140 is approved assures the attorney & the employer of of 2 things:
1. The attorney gets more money for filing a seperate application.
2. The employer gets to keep you tied down longer since its likely that the USCIS wont know what to do when a seperate application is filed just to port the date. Its not a documented procedure (that I am aware of) in that you have to file Form I-xxx or whatever.
Best to port the PD at the time of filing the 140.
Disclaimer: I am EB3 and I havent tried porting my date to EB2. Just using my basic common sense.

Hi,
I got the standard RFE
1) End date in client letter
2) EE relationship
3) show project validity till h extension requested( 3 years)
RFE response to be received on or before July 10 2010
With all problems from vendor and client i was able to get letters but my lawyer sent the packet on July 9 and when I was tracking the status it says that UPS due to some unforeseen reason will now deliver this packet on 7/12 ..2 days after deadline, the packet has sent date 7/9 and was marked next day AIR
My question is
) Am I screwed in this case and my H1 is gone. current H1 period expires 07/15
2) Or will USCIS will accept the respnse since it was posted before on 7/9
I am so mad at my lawyer but looks like H1 is gone and I have to pack my belongings ...
any advice please
I think, you can still work on H1 even though your current extension is pending

nozerd,
The IB system is offered by many charter schools. These schools are public schools but have been set up through a charter agreed to by the parents. They are public schools managed by parents. You do not have to pay anything for your child to attend one of these (At least in the great state of GA, u dont).
The IB website indicated schools like Jamnabai Narsee in Bombay also offer the IB program.

Hi All
Just wanted to share my exp as I had been to Biometric appointment yesterday.
I had an appointment @ 9:00 AM and my wife had it @ 12:00 PM...I reached at 8:15 AM and requested the staff if my wife could get her biometric done with me instead of waiting till 12:00 ...she refused....inspite of having only a handful of people she said she will only take her by 12:00 PM.....
I had my biometric done in 1 min...they took the application, asked me to confirm my name , took index finger print , took a snap and I was done....same thing for my wife....total time for both biometric 2 mins...wait 3 hrs....
Also intrestingly my wife had received an RFE for her EAD renewal.....guess what the RFE would be ???? I could not believe when I received the letter....the RFE letter was mailed on Aug 8th ..I received it in AUg 12th...it said that USCIS has not yet received my wife's biometric information and hence her case has been put in hold......the second page said pls provide the date of bimoetric appointment, ASC code , QA Review by -------- on ----------- and confirmation number if any....
Luckily for me our Appt was on Aug 13th...so I took the letter with me and showed it to the lady at the centre and she filled it out....but had a received the letter a day later...I had no clue what the heck to fill in QA review by ------ on -------- section....
What is more ridculuos is USCIS sends in the letter that they can see that biometric has not been done and hence they put my wife's case on hold.....they can very well see that the appointment is on Aug 13...so why send a letter to me asking when the Appointment is ????
What a waste of time and money....and the bigger implication is people who r working on EAD and who desparately need the EAD renewed in time have to unnecessarily go thorough the agony of having their application put in hold till the response is sent..when time is so crutial. If this unnecessary delay causes the EAD renewal to take more that 90 days, it is again the risk of loosing employment or salary for the applicant....
Anyways, I have filled out and mailed the respose to RFE today and hopefully they should process the application now...
Thought I should share my exp for all those who may receive same letters in the future......Hope this helps....
