Hi,
Do you guys know how long does it take to get EAD/AP renewed? I understand you are eligible to apply for renewal 120 days before the end date.

Not to derail this discussion ...but the post below is classic hinglish !! :D
When did processing time became on or after your Receipt Date: 06/06/07 and your Notice Date: 06/15/2008.
Is it because file misplaced - too many followups (3 SRs, Infopass, letters, calling IO)? At lease people have been able to find whether name check is cleared on not - could you figureout that? If not, I think, there is reason to be concerned.
Try simple question - name check is cleared or not?

Now where are the members in IL? Repeated requests passed to members returns no response!
They are all in Valley lake dr in schaumburg... Devon Ave in downtown.. just kidding. 50% of people who live in valley lake dr (apt community) is H1b folks working for SBC/Motorola.

I started shooting rodeo last year with my Nikon D70. The lighting at the rodeos I am shooting is very poor. Last year I shot with a Tameron AF Aspherical LD 28-200mm f3.8 to 5.6. I was able to get some good shots but mostly I was disappointed. I shot up to 1600 ISO in manual, with the lowest f stop possible for the zoom used, auto white balance, AF-C, single area & dynamic area AF mode, and experimented with shutter speeds from 1/60 to 1/500. I was very displeased with the results I got. On the 1/60 end I got to much blur and trying to stop the action the results were to dark. So I invested in a Nikon Speedlight SB-600. Occasionally I would get a could shot, but I almost always get red eye or the horse or cattle eyes are solid white from the flash. I even tryed to fill in the shadows with flash on manual at 1/64. I still get the white animal eyes. This year I bought a Nikor 50mm f1.8 lense. The lighting was very poor, but most of the pictures were better than last year. I am still not pleased with the quality though. I shot with and without flash. Without the flash pictures were still to dark even at 1.8 and had to be digitally enhanced. I shot some at 800 and 1600 ISO. The images are just to grainy. Any one got any advise. Here are four examples from about 2200 shots from Fri & Sat.

Guys,
If one IV member moves from State A to B, what would be the process of transferring membership to state chapter?
Will it merely be a deleting datbase record from one state and adding it to another state? Or would it be again filling up survey to new state chapter..?
Thanks.
If you are moving to the Tri State Area - we will give you a red carpet welcome into our chapter :)

Hi Anand,
I am in the same boat as your spouse. I am on H4. Just today I got a very harsh reply from an attorney saying that I cannot volunteer in any way that is related to my field ( I am an IT pro) even in a non-profit organization. I am little bit upset after this episode because I wanted to volunteer for a non-profit Org.
In the land of opportunities I don't have opportunity even to volunteer in a non-profit organization to keep in touch with my subject. First time I realized that I am living in a prison.
Don't take my word. Consult an attorney because H4 holder volunteering in one's own field is illegal it seems. Wish you all the best.
Amul
I dont think it is true.
You can volunteer to any field but not 40 hours / week , there are limitations i beleive 4 to 8 hours/week and not for cash reimbursement. Usually Org gives you free lunch voucher or something, thats it.
Anand: you want to work voluntarily and expect to get paid in cash , that is not legal.

A1. Yes, they will interview you together.
A2. It is NOT advisable to take the immigration attorney with you IF your case is clear, i.e. no out of status etc. When we went for the interview, the officer clearly told us that you did good by not having an attorney - they get annoyed by them :). As soon as he realized that we didn't have anybody representing us, he was way more relaxed than with other people who had representation.
A3. Yes, they can and will approve on the spot if they are satisfied with your answers!
A4. Yes, they can stamp the passport if they approve it - in my case, they approved it but couldn't stamp the passport because my PD was not current. He said, you will get the card as soon as your PD becomes current.
Just relax and take all the necessary documentation with you - and be absolutely confident in your answers. Oh, and btw, I was also promoted when we went for the interview and that doesn't make any difference - as long as you are employed (same company is better).
Hope this helps.
Hello Everybody,
My wife & I have our 485 interviews in January. Any advice is appreciated. Mine is a EB (EB- 2) petition. Our PD is April 2006. We filed for 485's in July 2007 and our 485's were transferred to National Benefits Center in 2008. I was promoted hence my title is different now from what was filed on the Labor application and job duties only changed a little bit. My petitioner is the same,
Couple of questions -
Will they interview my wife & I together ?
Is it advisable to take the immigration attorney with us for the interview.?
Can the IO approve the case on the spot.?
Can IO stamp the passport since my PD is current.?
If somebody can direct me to any recent experiences for folks who did have interviews - that would be really helpful.
Thanks!
Ritesh

What you said is true.
Even though receipts are generated based on received date, I assume they will process by priority date , if not what is use of priority date after filing I-485?
Gurus, any body know how USCIS will process 485 applications?

Please study IV first and then raise any question.
I see people not supporting the CIR which was suppose to be a pro Immigration bill, no matter which part of the society it was supporting. My question is Are you guys out here a Pro or an anti immigration forum?
Or are you guys out here are to fulfill their selfish dreams, stand on others to reach the top.
Can anyone answer me? I really doubt the people out here.

No one can predict at this point of time. The optimism
is thinning every day. So far nobody could come up
with anything that is agreeable.
Our best friend Sen. Sessions is trying his best
to distroy any bill. Now he is trying to propose and
implement a point based system. Who know when
the point base system is ready for discussion he
will propose a DNA based system....
So my friend I'm scared to hope on immi
sector. Good luck to you

And on the top of that giving red flags.
One person already decided to be away from such "GUNDA RAJ". I'll also abstain for couple of weeks
Hope admins are competent enough to notice it.
I did not see any such threads. Please point me to it.
This is a problem. When we try to keep the forums clean, people complain and talk about 'freedom of speech' and that moderators act like dictators. They go and talk rubbish about IV elsewhere.
When we are flexible and allow people to express, people start complaining about abusive comments and posts.
One anonymous user commenting against other anonymous user is hardly of any consequence. To come to IV or not come to IV is your decision. Remember IV is not about forum or red dots or green dots. It is a platform for everyone to meet and work towards fixing the system. If a person is committed to the cause, he would not be bothered by any distraction.

Here is an idea: say we have roughly 500 members out of this vast array of 35000+ members who have the heart and the will to contribute. we get $2000 from each and place it in an escrow trust account that does not release money for expenditure unless we reach $1 mln
We need to identify number of people who can really make a big chunk of one time contribution (like $500,$1000,$2000), and we should aim at scoring atleast 2000 committed members, so that per person share would be $500. Once we have the pledge from committed members; IV shall announce the fund raising day (instead of fund raising thread) in advance, all committed members will contribute the same day (optimistic).

nozerd,
The IB system is offered by many charter schools. These schools are public schools but have been set up through a charter agreed to by the parents. They are public schools managed by parents. You do not have to pay anything for your child to attend one of these (At least in the great state of GA, u dont).
The IB website indicated schools like Jamnabai Narsee in Bombay also offer the IB program.

I just bought a new D70 and was interested in getting some advise from current owners about additional lenses and accessories.
Was looking at buying a SB-800 flash. Is this the best option?
How about additional lenses? I have an 18-70mm AF that came with the camera.
I am looking for other nikkor lenses that are very handy to have, meaning won't sit in the bag most of the time.
Any other advice or help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Shawn
