Jim & Cathy, thanks a lot for the advice. These are "golden rules" that I have always followed, although with no such great results, it seems.;)
I'm new to this forum, but have been quite a photo buff since I was 15 or so (47 now..already !!). Went thru the usual collection of 35 mm (Yashica, Canon, Mamiya, Nikon). Couple of months ago bought a Fujifilm S7000. Quite satisfied with it even though the performance is still not comparable to the one that can be obtained with a true reflex. (I'm planning to upgrade shortly, not very sure to what yet, since I don't want to spend more than $ 2 k -advice appreciated).
The pics i posted where an attempt to make some portraits a bit different from the classical; that is to picture the subject in his/hers environment. It's a new area for me, but which I find I like a lot.
Here is a set of more "classical" portraits of my kids. As always I appreciate your comments.

My company uses Cheryl-Lenz Calvo. They took long time to apply for the labor certification part of the greencard process, but otherwise they are very professional, and I would recommend this firm.

I've been doing some research and It looks like I'm might have to file amended I-140 concurrently with my I-485.
Has anybody gone through this process before?

H1B Visa Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
Each month, annual preferences and foreign state limitations are subdivided by the Visa Office into monthly portions based on the applicants reported at consular posts and CIS Offices. If there is a sufficient amount of visas in a category to supply the demand then that category is considered �current� but when the demand over-exceeds the allotted supply of visas the category is considered �oversubscribed.� This is when a visa cut-off date is established, the cut-off date is the �priority date of the first documentarily qualified applicant would could not be accommodated for a visa number.�

Hello Gurus,
I have got my wife passport stamped(H4) until Oct'09 based on my previous H1. I have changed company and got new I-797 for both of us valid till Apr'2010. During her recent visit to India and return to USA, at the port of entry she was issued I-94 till Oct'2009 eventhough her I-797 form my new employer is valid till Feb'2010.
I don't want to ask my wife to cross the broder (@Mexico or @Canada) for the sake of renewing her I-94. I am wondering if I can apply with USCIS for her extension of I-94 till April'2010 for which she has I-797 to support it.
Thanks

Hi all,
I recently appeared for L1A visa (blanket petition) at Delhi Consulate. I already have travelled to the US on B1 Visa and currently hold a valid B1 Visa. I was asked the following questions:
Q1: What do you at 'xxx' (my company's name)?
Q2: What is your designation?
Q3: How long have you been with 'xxx' (my company's name)?
Q4: How long have you working in managerial role?
Q5: How many people report into you?
Q6: Will you be performing same duties in the US?
Q7: Will you have people reporting into you?
Q8: but you will be hiring or firing individuals? you will not be measuring individual's performances?
I have been working with my org. for over 7 years and have travelled in various countries in the past. This was my frist L1 Visa application. My designation is of a manager and I work with over 50+ clients for my domain. My role in the US was to manage a function in our company.
From what I understood of my conversation with the consul - since I do not and will not have people reporting into me or have direct monitoring of individual performances, I do not fit in the "manager" category for the L1A Petition
Towards the end of the interview consul said that your company should apply your visa in different category. I couldnt ask the consul which category specifically.
My company is now evaluating the option of re-applying the Visa through Blanket L1 B for me.
Can anyone guide me the possible interpretation of "another category" ?
Secondly, we have time constraints for the project for which I was travelling. Hence, Individual Petition will take a great deal of time. If my Visa is applied under L1B category what are chances of it getting rejected? considering the fact that my company feels that L1A is the right category for my Visa application. :confused:

Hi Buddy,
Put your address in 485 apps. You may at some point want to change the employer under AC21 rule and this will allow you to 'carry' the 485 process with you. Basically you own 485 process whereas it's not the case with labor and I-140.

There are still some new members who keep posting that the bill S 1348 looks very good and it has SKIL provisions etc, because they get pointed to the last year's bill.
If you go on thomas.loc.gov and find bill text for S. 1348 you see a bill that is a copy-paste version of LAST YEAR'S SENATE BILL S. 2611.
That text is last years text that was initially put in place as a place-holder BEFORE the grand compromise was reached.
After the grand bargin (compromise/coalition) was reached, the text of the grand compromise replaced the entire text of last year's bill (that has SKIL) was the next text.
Amendment # 1150 (S.A. 1150) Sponsored by Sen. Kennedy is a 400 page amendment that replaces the entire text that was intially in the bill with the new text. Its a "Substitute" amendment.
Read the S. A. 1150 text. Its also on IV homepage as PDF. That is the bill now. Here is the link to that

I dont think it is mandatory..please look at this:
Employmentbased
Criteria
The adjudicating officer must determine whether the employment-based
I-485 meets waiver of interview criteria set forth below.
Employment-based:
� The principal applicant is employed by the same petitioner who submitted
the approved underlying employment-based visa petition.
� The principal applicant has been interviewed in the course of an
investigation or field examination, and the adjudicating examiner
determines that further interview of the applicant is unnecessary.
� The principal applicant has been approved as an alien of extraordinary
ability or alien of exceptional ability and is otherwise eligible for
adjustment of status.
� The principal applicant has been approved as an outstanding professor or
researcher, or a multinational executive/manager and has a continuing
offer of employment from the same petitioner who submitted the
underlying approved petition.
� Adjustment applicants who received national interest waivers based on
performing primary medical care to a medically under-served area must
demonstrate that they intend to continue according to the terms and
conditions of the underlying petition.
Other:
� Sufficient evidence is contained in the record to support a denial of the
adjustment of status application. For example, if an I-485 that should
have been rejected at Visa Screening/INS Review was accepted in error, a
denial would be processed by the adjudicating officer.

3) If they mention no (miss communication) and applied for I-140 for 2004 labor but in fact there is a petition (I-140) submited for me for my 2006 labor.will this be a problem for my 485 approval?
4) which one will be the best for me to use now 2004 or 2006?

yeah it does seem a bit un-alive. but i'm glad you like it man. Kirupa usually writes back and says - i've added it up when he likes a stamp. He will in time, no doubt but because of various contests that are taking place, perhaps he is very busy. In fact I am trying to think up a competition for him at the moment, but they all seem to have been done at some point in the past - t shirt etc. Perhaps the most obvious idea for a competition on a forum such as this would be a web page design? give people some guidlines and let them design a nice webpage in a sort of css style - but give them a title or ficticious company (perhaps something like - The new official site for Elvis and Graceland) - even if it is not an actual scripted site in html - only a jpg? but god knows who would give out prizes for such a contest. In the recent magazine cover competition (which i am a judge for) someone has offered considerable prizes. Maybe Kirupa could contact lisa marie and ask her ;)
