Nikon put itself "On The Ropes", by not paying attention to what the market wants. Canon have consistently caught them with their pants down with the D60, 300D and the mkII. Very kind of Canon to leave Nikon anywhere near 30% of the table scraps. who says the blokes at Canon don't have a heart?
I think they may make a strong fight back with the D70, that looks like a lot of camera for a great price.

Lesson for all e-filers:
1. Try to say you do NOT intend to provide supporting documents for a I-765 for a pending I-485 application (If you have provided I-485 case number and correct Alien number already).
2. Immediately after the e-filing send the supporting documents (well arranged and tabbed in order of significance) with a copy of the e-file receipt. Unless you provide this, the case would NOT progress. I even talked to an IO who stated that I should not send any documents till requested, but its my experience that you should send the documents immediately after the e-filing.

Why was your I140 denied after it was approved? Provide more details
What did your denial letter for I140 and I485 say?
My I-140 was never approved..
there was a first RFE for my exp letters,
and then there was an enquiry against Employer
and then RFE for A2P
and after answering A@P it is denied.
while it was pending, during July07 fiasco we applied for I-485.

Fox news and CNN are right wing media organisations who exagerate and create fear among decent American citizens. I for sure will do all my best from now on to expose this vicious campaign and even complain to organisations in the US about Lou Dobbs/Tom and their hate propaganda. CNN (Ted Turner) and Fox (Rupert Murdoch) also operate in other nations like India and we must let the Indian government (revoke their licences) and media organisations know about this.

Hello -
As a Primary Applicant my GC was approved (EB-1) but for my wife's application I got an RFE. RFE - USCIS is asking for a VALID wedding certificate showing proof of a hindu wedding under hindu act (dont ask what I was doing or what my lawyer was doing while submitting 485)
Now I have about 28 days (total is 30) to respond to it. I have not rcvd. my GC but it has been approved and has been sent to production. My lawyer told me that as my GC has been approved my VISA is not good anymore. My wife was on dependent visa and so is my kid.
Now as my GC got approved.......my visa got cancelled...........my wife's & kids visa is invalid.............and we did not file for Advance Parole so we cant travel. On top of all this we dont have a wedding certificate.
Any suggestion to address this situation? I cant get a certificate without going back to India and I cant leave the country as If I do so I wont get to enter the country again. Even if somehow (on some legal basis) I can re enter I dont think my wife and kid will be able to re enter US.
If I dont produce evidence then my wife's application will be rejected putting her out of status.............gosh what a mess.....
ANY SUGGESTIONS FROM ANYONE WILL BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED. Murali please respond with any possibility which I can explore upon.
Thanks
Get an affidavit from relatives who were present for weeding....2 affidavits will be enough. No need to travel abroad.

Hi I am in similar situation, My I 140 is approved from company X in June and I applied I485 and EAD in July (receipt is pending). I am on 8th year of H1. My HR said not to worry about anything everything (H1 and GC) will be taken care of by new company (company Y). My Question is-
Do I need to worry since I will be employee of new company by this month end (less than 180 days of I 485 filing).
Do 180 days limit still valid from July?
If I change job (to company Z) after 180 days from July on EAD will it affect my GC? How?

My 485 was apporved in July 2010 and have not recieved the card yet. I have contacted with couple of Service Request for non-delivery of permanent cards. First reply from USCIS was that my case was waiting for finger printing information from my local USICS was backlogged for appointments. So, I have told to wait for 60 days for either FP notice or physical green card. After 60 days, I have called them and another service request was created and the reply was completely irrelavant as they says my address was updated for my query about non-delivery of GC.
Is there any other escalation request that I can made for deliveriy the GC or the FP notice? whenever I called the USICS are creating the SR and have to wait for answers like above.
I have recieved the 485 approval notices (for both of us) on July itself but waiting for cards now. Are anyone with the same boat ? Or Is the unusual case?
Thanks

Bank of America(BOA) being a financial institution must have analyzed the risks before deciding to give credit cards to illegal aliens (no credit history and no SSN) and this would have been possible only with BOA having some kind of insider information on the status of the CIR.
My take is that BOA execs. know that the CIR is going to be passed in the summer. BOA knows for a fact that these 10-12 million illegal immigrants (read future customers) will have valid SSNs within the next 1 year or so.
This BOA action not consistent with traditional banking norms, is a precursor to the passing of the CIR in the house in the comming summer.

I-140 PP is only available if you are within 60 days of your H-1 capout. So for most people who are porting PD from EB3 to EB2 , there is additional wait of six months to an year just for I-140.
Porting PD from EB3 to EB2 can easily take 1 year including new PERM application, I-140 and I-485 interfile.
What is interfile ? Is it changing the underlying I140 for the 485 application ?
Can we do that ?
Can the new I140 be from the same employer or does it need to be from a different employer ?

Well H1B can bring their spouse using H4 .. so I guess GC holder can not bring their spouse .. I guess this is a hole in the system.
H1-H1 couple can support status of each other (H1-H4 or H4-H1)
H1-F1 couple can support each other (H1-H4 or F1-F2)
But
GC guy can't support status if H1 spouse lost job and became out of status
GC guy can't support status if F1 spouse becames out of status
GC guy can't bring spouse from home country
UNLESS SPOUSE/Kids goes through complete F2A visa process (several years)
It can make life of GC spouse miserable (of course GC guy also). Imagine GC-H1 marriage, H1 out of status after loss of job. After loss of status, H1 spouse has to return, but GC spouse will try to remain in USA for own status and in hope to bring spouse back after getting citizenship.
