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.

On July 27, I sent my I-485/I-765 to the TSC. Case was delivered on July 31. I have no receipts, my checks have not been cashed. I called NCS, they asked me to wait two more weeks.

Check with your lawyer. Extension beyond 6 yrs is not available if you are eligible to apply for I485. If you are not able to apply for 485 because of retrogression, you can extend your H1 beyond 6 yrs (of course, it doesnt apply to you).
Hi everyone:
I'd appreciate if someone could give me an advice here. I am currently on the 6th year of H1B. It is expiring on Jan 31, 2008. Technically I will need a 7th year extension. My Labor Certification for Green Card (EB2, PD: Dec, 2002) was approved back in July, 07 and I filed I-140 and I-485 concurrently in the end of July. So far I have not received a receipt or anything back from them.
What shall I do in this situation -- can I apply for H1B extension now? Any advice will be appreciated.

Thank you!!
No. Both times it was a large company (one has an agreement with a big law firm to handle immigration-related issues). I asked my current employer's attorney about it and she told me not to worry, they never had issues with AC21 portability (employer has 120,000+ employees). She was right regarding my case.

You or your wife's country of birth is important factor in whether you will save much time by being EB-2. If you are from China, your EB-2 priority date (PD) would be about 2.5 years ahead of the EB-3 date. However, since it could take 2 years to get a new PERM and I-140 approved, it wouldn't save much time. For India and other countries that are current, the difference might be worth it. Of course, your employer has to be willing to go through the work and expense of redoing PERM and the I-140, and must have an EB-2 position available for you.

Hello ..
filed my 140(EB3) regular processing Nebraska Service Centre with RD/ND=Oct25th 2006..
guys from April/May r still waiting and I think there must be whole load of 140 applications from June onwards..So maybe another backlog building up for 140 cases...If our application is not so strong and we file for prem.processing they might use a denial notice and knock us out..!!
Any idea when could my case be touched...expecting not until March..
whole of our life ends up in waiting...!!

The AOS (485) is based on the I-140 approved for the beneficiary listed in the I-140 and not the labor. Besides, the DOL is not really concerned about EB2 or EB3 category. The DOL asks for the alien information just to verify that the job ad is not tailored to meet the alien's qualifications. EB2, EB3, etc are categories under the INA which become applicable only once the I0140 is filed. In a nutshell, your friend should have consulted another attorney before the I-140 was filed under EB3. It is not possible to change the 485 filing to EB2 based on the labor because the immediately preceding step to filing 485 is the I-140 which governs.

Hello,
Sorry to read that! Definitely file a lawsuit to ask not only for 30k, but also for financial hardship resulting from the outcome.
Regarding reentry, there should not be any problem for your Mom as the bills were addressed to you (so her name should not be on defaulter list).
There is insurance (Visitor Health Insurance, Pre-existing condition coverage, AIU (http://www..us) - which covers pre-existing conditions) and their rates are competitive. But I've never had to file a claim, so don't know if they would be different...

This is a common scenario for some IT folks who were here during the downturn from 2001 through 2005 and is not a big deal in your case.
USCIS may or may not check your entire status history. My gut feel is if they have all your W2's during that period and someone takes a closer look at it and sees a discrepancy (if there is one) in terms of actual income and the minumum income based on your H1B annual salary you should have made for that year, then you may have an issue. However, that is not likely and I have not seen cases along those lines yet. If anyone in this forum have come across such a situation, please post and let us know specifics if you can.
In that extreme case, get a hold of a good lawyer if you dont have one and have them craft an appropriate response to the RFE since it is important that the right policy and regulations information is mentioned in the response letter.
Hope that clears it a bit!
Hi,
Thanks a lot for your reply. I really appreciate it.
Well as you said if I went to India after those 5 months(when I was on bench) than that period of 5 months when I was on bench will be wiped out(it will be gone,clean). It means that USCIS will check my status after my last entry in to US!!
OR they may check everything when ever I was in US including when I was on bench(including my first entry into US to till date i.e. From Feb 2005 - Till date)????
I went to India in Nov 2006 & came back, so in that case my old records would be clean. B'cos I was on bench for 5 months in 2005.
Correct me if I am wrong on this.
Also as you said this will come in case of I-485 & USCIS might overlook this & may send RFE!! Any idea how to respond that kind of RFE??
I will really appreciate your response.
Thanks.

Hello all,
I am in a similar situation. H1 expiring soon and still don't have an approved LCA (LCA got rejected due to FEIN error and it has been re-applied again but the attorney did not send in any additional documentation to DOL to prove that FEIN is in fact genuine).
LC and I140 have been approved...so wanted to apply for a 3 yr extension.
My Attorney is now suggesting 2 options in case we do not receive the LCA approval before the expiration of the my current H1
Option 1: To go ahead and apply for H1 extension and submit all the documentation regarding the LCA application, the reason for denial and sending in evidence for the FEIN.
As per him, USCIS should accept and approve the H1 extension. Personally I have my doubts that this will work. Attorney says that this what other attorney's are all doing. Are they really? Does any body know if the H1 was approved??
Option 2: Use a previously used LCA (one that has been used earlier this year to obtain a H1 B for Employee XYZ who holds the same position as I do AND is valid until June 2011) and apply for my H1 extension.
Can a LCA be reused? Is it a valid/legal thing to do?
Any and all help in obtaining an answer for the above questions is really appreciated.
Thanks.

Wow...wait a minute here.
He does not have the stamp in his passport for the new employer. If he has already quit his old employer for which he has the H1B stamp, then he probably must have a new stamp(for latest H1) for re-entering.
First of all, he would be using his new I-94 that is attached to the new H1 he just got from his new employer. So his departure record would show him working for new employer. When he comes back, if he doesnt have visa stamp for the new employer, then it would be a problem, I am pretty sure.
Better check with a lawyer newh1user. I am pretty sure you will need new H1 stamp that is tied to new I-797 if you exit USA and give your latest I-94 when leaving.
Also, think about getting an H1 stamp overseas in Europe while you are at this situation. If you have a bachelors or masters degree from United States, then getting H1 stamping in countries other than your home country is not a big challenge.

background -
A friend is currently working full time with a large financial company where there are many layoffs going on. She has 140 approved, but her H1 is valid only till Sept 2009 (6 years complete; no date recoup possible).
H1 extension cannot be filed until 6 months prior to expiry i.e. Apr 2009.
questions -
If she gets laid off (next round of layoffs are expected in dec), can she still:
1) transfer her h1 (she is worried because many companies do not transfer if < 1 year is on h1), and simultaneously file for an H1 extension based on approved 140 from her current job?
2) file a new labor and port her PD from the approved 140?
3) if no to 1 or 2 - is it the end of the road? Can she transfer to H4 (on her husbands H1) and continue to stay here?
Thanks in advance!!

I see 2 sets of people in this forum. One who has recent priority date (2005-2007) and they want to process I-485 by receipt date and another set who has much older PD, they want I-485s processed by priority date.
Guys, this is awkward.. There is no point in keep fighting and speculating..we will wait and see

I have got sufficient replies so it looks like it is OK to do both H1 Stamping and landing together.
Do you have any suggestions for the canadian places. I heard Vancouver is popular.
Is one place better than another one..
Any info will be really helpful
