Looks like there are 27 co-sponsors for HR 5882 and 7 of those joined this month. That is a good news I guess.

Looks like the bill is still alive and something might happen before the end of this year.

Both of those lenses aren't the fastest, so you're going to want a sensitivity of 1600 to get acceptable shutter speeds to minimize motion blur. If the light is changing a lot, you could use aperture priority, leaving the aperture at the widest it will go (or stopped down however much you can while maintaining reasonable shutter speed).

If the light is relatively constant (and when has that happened at a concert?), you might get more consistent results from determining the correct exposure by test shots and histogram, and then leaving things set until the light changes.

If you want help with autofocus, I'm afraid that I can't help, as my Nikon is a bit older than yours (D1). :(

Could this be the administrative fix that IV is working on - which pappu replied in another thread.

Can we please get this so that people can add spouses (if they did not do so during july fiasco).

I think he mentioned that it is for I 485 applicants and to me I 485 applicants are who filled AOS. Poor me (:

Here are the instructions for e-filing EAD -

refer to the section on supporting docs
AP says required, EAD says not required

Think again ! :)

We are extremely excited to announce that some other senators we were in touch with, have introduced amendments in favor of legal skilled immigrants. We will reveal details pretty soon.

Before anyone thinks about posting that the bill is dead, we have some news for you! It is not. There is too much noise right now and the undocumented folks doing rallies with 100K people at one time, this will not be pushed under the rug. Also, we have heard whispers in DC that the immigration bill will be taken up pretty soon after the recess :)

Thanks to all the folks who believe in us :) Together we will achieve what he have set to achieve ......

I would go with Method 2 since you are not taking up resources having all six of the contents in memory - even if their visibility is set to false.

:)


Wow a response from the man himself, Kirupa - Cheers dude :)

Hmm, somehow I managed to post this answer in the wrong thread, so here it is again. Try looking at www.1001freefonts.com (http://www.1001freefonts.com) for some good fonts.

NumbersUSA and ALIPAC are turning out to be reference sources on Immigration on IV. A lot of us seem to believe in the adage - Keep your friends close, but the enemies closer :D

Thanks a lot CRAZYMONK :D

TSC is not processing most EB3 I485. This is not supposed to be revealed publicly. It is wrong, so that's why I'm speaking out.

I just called USCIS to check the status of my case and the Immigration Officer said it is in EB-1 category. I know my case is EB-2.

I asked the IO to see if i have send any paperwork to rectify their mistake, but she said USCIS will automatically adjust the category whe it picks up the case for review

I am confused. Please Advice


PD: Aug 2005
EB2 - I
140 receipt says 203(b)(2)
140 Approved

Indian Government sources had said that the Bureau of Diplomatic Security had contacted the ministry of external affairs (MEA), India around the time Mr Pacheco was incarcerated for his alleged involvement in the mysterious death of his girlfriend Nadia Torrado � he was in jail from July 9 till July 26, when he was awarded bail. He is a former Goa, India tourism minister Francisco Xavier �Mickky� Pacheco was caught on the backfoot on Sunday once again as reports surfaced that the US State Department�s Bureau of Diplomatic Security had informed India that Mr Pacheco might be involved in a big immigration and money laundering racket.

Mr Pacheco used to operate an employment agency along with his estranged wife Sara Pacheco which specialized in finding employment for Goans abroad. But according to the former minister, he has had nothing to do with the agency since he separated from his wife around four years back.

Mr. Mickey Pacheco has been accused by the US Bureau of Diplomatic Security of running an international immigration and money-laundering racket. The bureau got in touch with the external affairs ministry through the US embassy in Delhi and reportedly backed its allegations with documents and details of banking transactions. The ministry then passed on the information to the CBI. The evidence is being described as substantive. According to the US Bureau of Diplomatic Security report, Pacheco had 15 million dollars in his account in the US. He recently transferred 2 million dollars to India.

Please read what the event is about. It is NOT about people asking questions on issues. It is about "How can Congress effectively use Facebook". :)

It will be nice everyone from Texas can attend this and ask our question:

This may be a RFE... keep in touch with your law office.


I am not sure if someone is in same situation.For my I140 it says the following

Current Status: Document mailed to applicant.

On April 1, 2009 we mailed the document to the address we have on file. You should receive the new document within 30 days. If you do not, or if you move before you get it, call customer service.

I am not sure what does this mean. If some one can throw some light.

BusinessWeek featured an excellent story about O1 visas, often known as the Genius visas. While the spotlight is now on H1B visas or the debate on Immigration Reform, it is important to cover this important and often overlooked visa.

O1 visas are awarded to immigrants with extraordinary abilities in the arts, sciences, education, business, or athletics. The program, for what are officially called O-1 visas (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137182.html), began in 1990 as lawmakers sought to separate these applicants from the pool of those seeking H-1B visas, the visa program for skilled immigrants used by many technology companies. While H-1B (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) applicants must hold at least a bachelor's degree and possess some specialized skill, O-1 visas (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137182.html)are allotted to a more elite crowd: those who can prove to U.S. immigration officials that they are the very top in their fields.

According to the U.S. State Dept.�which makes the grants to successful applicants�9,014 O-1s were awarded in 2008, up 40% from 2004. Among current O-1 visa holders are Dallas Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki, Canadian author Jennifer Gould Keil, Israeli concert pianist Inon Barnatan, and members of the New York dance companies Merce Cunningham and Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane.

Gurus please advise,

I have a H1b with Company A. It expires in Nov 08.
A couple of months ago I joined company B and they transferred my H1B.
Now if I want to go back to Company A, do I need to transfer my H1B again?

Company A has not cancelled my H1 and I am in good terms with them.

pl. advise

I have an approved i140 from old employer, using which I am planning to file i485 (As PD from old PERM/i140 is current for the month of Aug. & no labor filed for ne employer). As I am in good terms with old employer, they are ready to give me a "future employment letter" for my GC processing.

Can someone please let me know -
1. Format of the letter, details thats needs to be present in it,
2. Anything else I need from the old employer.

Thanks!

Depends, is the job offer/position still open? Do you intend to go back to your old company when you get the GC? If not, it is illegal to file 485 (by means of fraud) using the old i140.

If legal, I guess the job offer should just state that the offer is contingent upon getting your permanent residency.

PS: I have no experience in "future offer letter", but making a guess based on the offer letter I got when I had not yet got my H1.

I have a question. Our files are stuck in the Chicago local office (after our interview last year) and the only thing pending is the Namecheck, which has been pending for more than 180 days. Our PD is current. Is anyone in the same position?

It is frustrating because you do not get any LUDs when your files are in the local office and I have no indication whether the Chicago officeis processing cases with NC pending > 180 days. Anyone knows?

You should send a letter to local office and demand adjudication. Attach Feb 4th memo.
