Assuming an equal number for EB3 India, EB2 China, and EB3 China, we have a total of 856 people who have applied for PD?
We have more than 8000 members, so are we to assume the 7000 and odd members are ROW?
Something doesn't add up.
Can ROW people please have a poll for yourselves?

Hi,
When I go online to get the visa appointment for parents I'm not able to get a date and this has been going since 25 days(It asks to check back in 24 hours)
They changed the visa fee this year (2008).
The message on the vfs site says all those with HDFC receipt# obtained last year should try and get visa appointment before Jan/31/08.
What can I do now?
There is also no way I can put my name in the signature box while filling the application.(When the application is filled by someone not parents themselves they ask for siganture of the person filling the application )
What should we do in this case as we are filing online?
Will there be any problem when you don't have H1 stamping on the passport (but have valid H1 and have EAD and AP)
Will there be any problem in visa approval for parents.
Thank you.
You can use the same fee if you schedule interview before Jan 31 2008, Otherwise Visa applicants who paid the $100 application fee and who appear for an interview after January 31, 2008 will be required to bring a non-refundable demand draft for the $31 difference in fee.
Following are the information from VFS website:
United States Government announces worldwide revision of machine
readable visa application fee
December 27, 2007
The U.S.Department of State has revised the worldwide nonimmigrant Machine Readable Visa (MRV) fee from $100 to $131 effective January 1, 2008.
Visa applicants who paid the $100 application fee and who appear for an interview after January 31, 2008 will be required to bring a non-refundable demand draft for the $31 difference in fee.
The U.S. Mission in India will not be able to significantly increase the number of visa appointments in January.
Travelers are cautioned against speculative purchases of $100 MRV appointment receipts in December. Applicants who have not yet purchased a MRV fee receipt from HDFC bank are encouraged to wait until 2008 to pay the application fee to avoid the inconvenience of obtaining a demand draft for the $31 fee difference after January 31, 2008.

H-1B is the responsibility of the employer but it is slightly tricky. If the employee is being paid more than the minimum wage quoted, then he/she can be made liable to pay back the full amount. But still attorney fees and other associated costs can be collected back from the employee.
Either way 4 years is too long a period to hold anyone liable to any employment agreement when it is employment at will and should not have been signed to start with. It is just too late to regret and would be wise to move forward with options best known to you.

It's hard to tell in this particular photo but it looks like the majority of the frame is either shadow or dark green. The metering systems in these cameras tries to make everything "gray", or make really dark things lighter, or really light things darker. It works most of the time where there is a good mix of tones. However in this case since the majority of the frame is dark it may be trying to bring it up and as a result blow out some of the flower petals that are on the edge of the bright side.
You can check the meter on your camera very easily by doing a poor man's spot meter.
1. Get close enough to the yellow plant so that the flower fills the entire frame in your viewfinder. Press the shutter halfway down and note the meter reading. If your lens won't focus that close don't worry about it, you just need the aperture and shutter speed numbers.
2. Check your manual to find out how to use Exposure Lock. At this point, lock the exposure, move back, compose the image the way you want, and take the picture with the metering from #1. If everything is working, your flowers should be exposed correctly but all of those shadows in the back will probably be black with no detail.
I found a photo from cox on this forum that has a similar light condition. This guy is a master at it. http://www.dphoto.us/forumphotos/showphoto.php/photo/25275/cat/887
Let us know how it works out!
Good Luck, Kevin

My lawyer only asked for last one year's W2 and no paystubs at all.
Paystubs are desired but I dont think USCIS bother to look at them if you send them. If you have some issues with your status and your I-94, then that might raise more questions and they may ask for more W2 and more paystubs.
But for the begining, just one W2 is enough. If you are filing this year, send the 2006 W2. That's it.

For Texas:
https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/Processtimes.jsp?SeviceCenter=TSC
Summary for I485:
Nebraska has processed most applications that it has had for 7 months (filed on or before April 14 2007).
Texas has processed most applications that it has had for 6 months.
Since 6 months is the target, Texas can be considered to be caught up, and Nebraska will likely have caught up next month.
For I485 that makes the visa bulletin the main issue.

These are all good suggestions and translate well from my film days. I also read that, whereas in b&w the adage was expose for the shadows and develop (or print) for highlights, in digital it is the reverse - expose to preserve detail in the highlights and then use your curves in RAW to fix the shadows where you want them. So I'll have to put all that to work this week / weekend. If the flowers stay around, that is.

The summer August recess is here and the lawmakers are back in their constituencies. This is an opportunity for us to meet with them and address our issues and present solutions in preparation for the upcoming CIR. We must push for our agenda to get our provisions in the base bill as CIR is being drafted currently. If we do not get our provisions in the base bill then it is much harder to get them attached to the bill in the form of amendments.
IV therefore requests its members, to call up and start scheduling lawmaker meetings NOW. Please take appointment with your local lawmakers of both houses of Congress. You can find more information about how to reach your lawmaker guide that we have on the website, http://immigrationvoice.org/media/HowTo_Guide_MeetLawmakers.doc
The State Chapters will be organizing state level calls to coordinate this effort. You will be given detailed instructions and given documents to carry for these meetings. If you do not have a state chapter in your state, please join a nearby state chapter. You will be verified and included. Anonymous and unverified members are not given access to state chapters. You can find state chapters here: http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=72&Itemid=52
In summary there are four parts to this action item
1) Please start taking the appointments with your lawmakers now. Once you schedule these lawmaker meetings, please post the details in your state chapter yahoo/google group (date of the appointment and the lawmaker office) so that these efforts will be coordinated with others from your state chapter / local area. Do not post the details of your appointment on this thread.
2) We will be organizing conference calls in the coming weeks for members who are participating in this action item.
3) Once you have your meetings, please email the details and feedback to info at immigrationvoice.org to help us follow up with their DC office with your feedback.
4) If you are a state chapter member, set up a conference call any time starting this weekend to execute this action item. If you do not have a state chapter, join the conference calls of your nearby states for guidance. State chapter leaders will however verify you before giving access. State chapter leaders will find further updates and instructions in their state chapter leader forum.
We must push ourselves harder and stronger in this month if we have to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Advocacy is an integral, essential and important part of democracy and we must exercise our first amendment right to demonstrate that we not only are highly skilled and are high income individuals but we are truly the best and the brightest Future Americans.
Thank You.

thanks for the encouraging reply. it seems like some people are getting denials without any NOIDs and are going out of status due to that. my previous company is not going to revoke my I-140 so that is not a problem. however i am concerned about any other stupid reasons that these people might put in a denial and make us go through the suffering process. do you know of any such situations or do you think that the USCIS is completely aware of this AC21 clauses and that they do not simply deny the cases. I know i am asking a completely insane question but just wanted to try any ways.
thanks a lot in advance.
Check out my blog on IV also check some threads that ran in past.
Remember - RFE for employment does not necessarily get triggered because of 140 revoke - it can be triggered even if you change address (see some threads)

a lot of people who applied during July 2007 are getting RFE on 485, I guess this because of pre processing but 99% of these people who are getting RFE are from NSC. I same only one or two people from TSC who got RFE. From this seems like NSC is pre processing but TSC is not.
No TSC is not. TSC goes by priority date and not processing date. TSC I have seen follows different processing style. For e.g. if your namecheck/security check or some kind of check is pending they dont send you FP notice. Also they process applications if your PD is current/close to recent bulletin.

Dear Editor,
I'm a regular reader of your newspaper, and would like you to cover the issues faced by legal highly-skilled immigrants due to decision by Michigan Secretary of State Ms. Terri Lynn Land to deny Driving Licences to residents on temporary visa status. This rule impacts thousands of legal immigrant workers in Michigan, like me, by impacting our ability to commute to work. It also affects a large number of International students studying in the state universities.
As a regular reader , I feel disappointed by the lack of media coverage for an issue affecting thousands in the state, including yours. Immigration Voice (http://www.immigrationvoice.org) , a non-profit grassroots organization working to fix the issues faced by legal employment-based immigrants has issued a press release on the issue.

Ron says, The USCIS teleconference concerning implementation of PL 111-230 provided the following information:
* The effective date of the new law was August 14, 2010 and all petition submissions postmarked on or after that date are subject to the new tax.
* The new tax only applies to companies that have:
o 50 or more full and part time employees in the US; and
o At least 50% of those employees hold H1B or L status.
* If an employee has an EAD, but is working using an H1B, that employee counts toward the total. If the employee works using his or her EAD, however, the employee does not count.
* The new tax only applies to new H filings (including change of employer filings)
* The new tax DOES NOT apply to extensions or amendments
* The total new tax is $2,000, not the higher amount originally feared
* The CIS confirmed that the additional fee must be paid by the petitioner and not the employee
* Both full and part time employees count toward the 50 employee threshold
* Any L2 employees, working using an EAD, also count toward the total
* The CIS is in the process of developing a new I-129 form to capture information concerning the new fee
* The CSC and VSC are attempting to screen existing cases, with filing postmarks on or after August 14th. For those that are found likely to be subject to the new tax, they will issue RFEs
* DO NOT send checks to the CIS for the additional fee until you receive an RFE.
* New filings by exempt companies should include a signed attestation that they are not subject to the new tax.
* Best practice, use a separate check for the new fee.

I work for Company A, applied i-485 and both got EAD & AP.She is the dependent.
My Wife works for Company B which sponsored her H1.
So, I guess she cannot continue to work on H1(company B) upon returning using AP(got as my dependent thru Company A) !!!?? am I correct?
As per my laywer, you should be able to work for an H1B and still re-enter using an AP. However for questions like these it is best to consult a GOOD attorney.
