Dear friends,
I received card production e-mail today.
My PD June 2007, RD Oct 2007. No REFEs. EB1 India.
Thanks for all the help and good counsel.
Lesson from this experience: Learn to handle delays. Take things in your stride. Do not make GC as end of your life. We can work anywhere and be happy, though US is a preferred destination.
In this process, I made so many friends and learned to heed others views and good advice.
Will continue to work for IV.
Congratulations

I usually spend some time every day at my San Francisco Bay Area immigration law office making inquires on pending cases. It is a frustrating process because I rarely receive answers and when I do, they usually are not helpful.
United States Citizenship and Immigration Services ("USCIS") has recently released guidance on how to make inquiries at their Service Centers (http://www.californiaimmigrationlawyerblog.com/USCIS%20update.pdf). They provide a three step process. The first step is to call their National Customer Service Center at 1-800-375-5283. If the issue is not resolved in 30 days, you proceed on to the next step which is to email the USCIS Service Center where your case is pending. The email addresses are:
California Service Center csc-ncsc-followup@dhs.gov Vermont Service Center vsc.ncscfollowup@dhs.gov Nebraska Service Center ncscfollowup.nsc@dhs.gov Texas Service Center tsc.ncscfollowup@dhs.gov (tsc.ncsfollowup@dhs.gov)
If there is no response to the email, you proceed to the last step which is to notify the USCIS Headquarters office of Service Center Operations by email at SCOPSSCATA@dhs.gov. The notice indicates that you will receive a response from this email within ten days.
It remains to be seen whether this system actually works. I will try it out in a few cases and will report back what happens.

Here is my case:
With Company A, my H-1B extension was filed on 8/22/2010, under regular processing.
My I-94 expiry date was 9/30/2010.
With Company B, H-1B transfer was filed on 10/2/2010 filed under Premium Processing
Received RFE on H-1B transfer. Responded on 10/22/2010.
Current status of H-1B transfer case is "RFE response review". No decision yet.
Meanwhile I got an RFE on H-1B extension on 10/25/2010.
1. How is the RFE on H-1B extension with Company A going to affect my H-1B transfer to Company B?
2. Should the H-1B extension be Approved before getting a decision on the H-1B transfer?
3. I read in a forum that unless my H-1B extension is approved, I will not get an I-94 with H-1B transfer approval (since it was filed after my I-94 expiry). Is this correct?
Please advise. Thanks.
P.S. I will post my experience once I get a decision on H-1B transfer.

I just went to Mumbai for H1 stamping and my previous visa on the passport had expired in 2006. So even if you are going for H1 stamping but your visa on the passport has been expired for more than 12 months...then you have to answer NO for this question.

In order to do this, she will have to leave the country and apply for a H-1b consular processing. Get a new visa and come back into the county on H-1. She cannot file for a change of status to H-1 from AOS.

I have been facing the same issue for past couple of days. What is the use of providing a facility to check online status when they are not capable of handling enough traffic to their website.
Yes. I have been getting this message when I login from work as well as home computer. I generally check my EAD application status once every 2-3 days and yet USCIS thinks that is an "excessive" use. I am pretty sure they have some issue with the website.
It was reported to us that your computer or internet gateway has been locked out for a select period of time. This is due to an unusually high rate of use. If you feel this has occurred incorrectly, please contact the Customer Service Center for assistance at 1.800.375.5283.

There is a small but noticeable difference in quality going from 6MP to 10MP. Since I went from 2.7MP to 10MP, I haven't experienced this first hand, but I'm told that the extra 4MP generally allow you to print about one size larger than you felt comfortable with before (hence, if you only accepted 11x14's from 6MP images, then with the 10MP photos you'll probably be happy with 16x20's).
Pixel peeping aside, I'm glad that you're happy with your new gear. Have fun (as I'm sure you will)! :cool:

Make sure you do not travel out of USA before you get your approved AP, since as per the law if the person who filled I485 leaves the country without AP then it is considered that he abandoned his I485, with the exception given to H1B/H4 and L1/L2 (and youdont have any of these)
If you leave USA without AP then you need to restart the process, if you have AP then that is all you need to travel.
/\/\/\/\/\/ -- Second it.

I have completed 3.5 years of my H1B and am looking at the possibility of applying for GC either under EB2/3.
After my 12th, I did a 2 year Diploma in Business from Australia and then did a 2 year MA(History) in correspondence (open uni) from India and also a 1 year PGDCA by correspondence.
I have more than 10 years of IT experience to go with my 12+2(fulltime)+3(correspondence)years of education.
Questions:
Please advice if I qualify for EB2 and if so will there be any issues ?
Please advice if I qualify for EB3 and if so will there be any issues ?

You could travel out and enter into US using your old visa stamp assuming that you enter before your old visa stamp expires. However show the new approved I-797 H1B petition at port of entry and they MOSTLY will give you a new I-94 valid till the expiration of new I-797 approval.

Hi,
I don't have direct personal experience with those particular lenses, however as a general rule suplementary lenses can be designed to give sharper results if they are designed to go in front of a particular lens. (the Nikon suplementary wide angle is probably slightly sharper) If it were me I would try the lenses I already have to see if the results I got from either or both were adequate for my personal purposes before I shelled out more bucks to change them. Even if they are terribly unsharp you may find that the exact look of the unsharpness is apealing in your images.
as far as a UV filter goes it is usualy a very subtle difference in the look of the images, unless you have a habit of destroying the front element of your lenses. If that were the case it could save you the cost of replaceing scratched lenses. Personaly I just make it a habit to keep my fingers off of the front of the glass, and so far in the last 30 or so years I haven't needed to keep a UV or skylight filter on my lenses.
