This is exactly what happened to my case. My attorney sent the porting request three time with no success. He says USCIS is returning the request without giving any reason.

Glad you got yours PWD. Mine was filed in first week of Feb .. still waiting ..

Why is the issue date matter?

When was the birth registered? If it says recently, then you should go thru the process.

If the birth was registered proerly at right time, you will not have problems.

Reissuance of birth certificates are very common. Expecting one to own 27 years old document is ridiculous.

The birth was registered just two months later -- but from what I've been reading the issue date (being so recent) does raise some eyebrows as well. The question posed is ... why haven't you tried to get a 'correct' birth certificate issued so far and only got it issued last month for US immigration purposes.

To be really safe, our lawyer is requesting we get affidavits sworn as well.

Got the email this morning...

Priderock, congratulations on your obtaining the coveted GC. Can you please update your profile to reflect India as your country of chargeability? Also, additional details in your profile will be very helpful.

Good luck and congrats again!

janakp, why do you have to post your stupid reply to every single post.You are acting like a policeman at stoplight, trying to direct everyone.

I am just wondering how in the world members here get to know where their cases were transferred after receiving a soft LUD?

My case starts with WAC and I don't remember where my lawyer originally filed my case but since then it has been transferred twice.. God only knows where..

Fedex receipt.

i am not sure what it is about the 300d or known by most as the digital rebel that makes it not a good choice. i used and still use the digital rebel. i consider it to be worthy of professional status. it lacks a few capabilities but for studio work i still feel more comfortable with that camera and i must admit even though i have the rebel xt i have not used it near as much as the 300 d.


There are some things that make for example the 10D better than the 300D, but those are few - the one that made me spend the money on a 10D rather than the 300D is the fact that the 10D has the setting for following AF (aka predictive AF), whilst the 300D has a setting for "Let the camera choose if it's following or not" - which probably works fine for most purposes, but not ALL.

The metal frame of the body and faster/longer frame buffer on the 10D was also on the list of "pros", but not a "must have" in my choice.

The sensor is the same in 10D and 300D, and whilst the newer 350/400/20/30 etc have BETTER sensors, the 10D has one that works fine for me.

When it comes to the difference between professional and amateur, there's only ONE thing that REALLY makes a difference: Professionals get paid for what they do, amateurs don't. And just like a carpenter may choose to buy a more expensive circular saw because it lasts longer, cuts a little bit faster or whatever the criteria may be, I also know some that use the method of "buy the $100 model of tool, because it's undoubtedly going to be broken soon anyway, and the $600 one doesn't actually take falling from a 20ft scaffolding any better than the $100 one does". So, likewise, a professional photographer may well chose a less expensive camera because it does the job sufficently.

u r kidding - u think these blood suckers will sponser a ticket after u leave them - he heee. AFAIK, even American companies won't bother after u get layed off


Thats is the law. They have to provide no matter how much blood suckers they are. Of course it depends on how you make them realize that.

I was offered one when i was in that situation way back in 99.

Hey! I am a practising dentist and I am on H1B.
Q: Does she need a dental license to apply for H1 ?
Ans:Yes a dental license is required for applying for a dentist position

Q: She 'qualifies' for a dental license (ie meets all requirements), but almost all states require a SSN to issue a dental license. Since she is on H4, she doesnt have a SSN. Problem: Dental License needs SSN - SSN needs H1 - H1 needs license - basically a "Catch 22" position here
Ans: Qualification is a very broad term. A dental degree doesnot make one eligible for a license. There are other important requirements for a license like National dental Boards, a clinical exam, jurisprudence exam of the state.

Also, if one one "qualifies" with all the requirements he or she can apply based on the TIN #. The board must be informed that a TIN is used and will need to be updated with SSN when you recieve one.

PD May 15 and still waiting for any sort of notice or status update...

I received the very heartbreaking news that my EB3 PERM application filed OCT 2007 (with audit) was denied. Audit was requesting a copy of the Newspaper AD which the lawyer sent last NOV 2007. Reson for denial was because the copy that the DOL recieved was not clear and some words as part of the Newspaper name was missing.... An appeal will be filed soon.

Any suggestions from the gurus?

I have bachelors with more than 5 years of experience, is it adviseable to file new PERM under EB2 category?

For people who filed motion or an appeal, could you please post your feedbacks/experiences?

also, im on my 7th yr extension and it will expire on FEB2010... will I have problems with my extension?

I had simillar situation as yours. My PERM was audited and than denied. I had appealed my case and after about 10 months of wait i ran out of patience and decided to withdrawn my appeal and file a new PERM. Please decide for yourself the best option. I think in your case appeal would be a better option because i assume you are extending your H1b based on your current PERM application. You can keep extending your H1b till your appeal is pending with a hope that it will be approved. Remember one thing you cannot file a new PERM with the same company for the same position. You can try to file a new perm for a different position through the same company as a backup, if your company is ready to support you.

Hello,
I worked up nerves to consult with the forum.
Please read my history and answer questions below.
Your non-judgmental and objective answers are greatly appreciated.

I first came to the US on a tourist visa when I was 15 years old.
I was out of status when my parents couldn't act fast enough to change my status. However, I faithfully maintained my status once I reentered with a student visa.

So here is the history:
Dec. 1986: Enter the US on a tourist visa (age 15)

June 1987: Out of status from the tourist visa

Sept. 1996: IIRIRA 96 passes-- 3yr./10yr. reentry bars apply effective April 1, 1997

July 1997: Obtain I-20 for school, leave the US and return to home country (age 26)

Aug. 1997: Reenter US on a F-1 visa

Oct. 00: Initial H-1B

Oct. 03: H-1B extension

Dec.04: RIR filed (priority date)

Sept.06: RIR approved

Oct. 06: H-1B (7th year) extension

Jan. 07: I-140 filed (pending approval)

July 21, 2007: Preparing to file I-485 with the same employer since 2000


So here are my questions:
Q1. The way I interpret the law is that the 3yr./10yr. reentry bars apply when the law went into effect starting April 1997. Is that correct?

Q2. If so, would I have to worry about getting the I-485 approved?

Q3. If not, should I filed for I-485 at all?

Q4. Any suggestions or possiblities to consider?

Thank you.

D. JULY EMPLOYMENT-BASED VISA AVAILABILITY

After consulting with Citizenship and Immigration Services, the Visa Office advises readers that Visa Bulletin #107 (dated June 12) should be relied upon as the current July Visa Bulletin for purposes of determining Employment visa number availability, and that Visa Bulletin #108 (dated July 2) is hereby withdrawn.

When I filed my AOS application I was in CA and still I am working in CA, I never worked / lived in MIAMI,FL.

If they have to transfer my case they would have transfered to some CA local office not to MIAMI,FL local office..

Thanks! I was worried because they may reject my application because if the PD is August, it is not qualified under the July VB. But it seems that because I am qualified anytime the VB shows current, I can apply in August without issue regarding PD.
