Makes sense now, I assume your certificate is issued in a hospital. To enter the details in to the birth registration file, parents usually have to wait till they decide on the name and need to register the birth.
My son was named after we got a birth certificate from Mumbai Corporation with "Baby Boy" appearing as the name. After naming him and when he was ready for school, we went to the local Corporation office (Chembur, Mumbai) and had to fill some form for corrections. And they corrected their registers/our originals, with an officer's green ink signature nearby the correction and adding no of corrections - 1 in the certificate. That was acceptable to USCIS. I do not remember if it was done in the same day or I had to go after few days again. This was a routine procedure there.

i don't get it you are saying that members don't have to search...and yet someone has to keep it up on the home page...which is it? yes a sticky thread would have saved work and not required someone to keep it up. Why wasn't it done in the first place. When a service is supposed to be offered every week...it should be offered every week...or else there should be an announcement that is will not be offered this particular week and that it will continue next on said week.
No reason to be frustrated when people are asking simple questions...another idea would be to put the answers to the most frequently asked questions on the FAQ page...which does not work right now....so that you don't have to repeat the answers.
Its an easy solution i think.
Giving a long lecture of frustration is not the best way to attract people to an organisation.
Think about it...do u go buy clothes from a store that voices their frustrations about the prices of raw material...of do u go buy it because they were nice to you...had great customer service...nice selection of goods...and fair prices.
I am sorry but working for hours on end alone, voicing frustration at lack of participation, treating members like they are morons for not being able to find supposedly simple things is a really terrible way to attract more people to an organisation. The cause may be noble...but who will wanna join some organisation where people just complain about how miserable things are.
Please pause for a moment and think about what i am saying. This is exactly why you have less participation and less donation. IV needs to transform into a vibrant fun place to be while still upholding the noble cause.
You are talking as if people are doing favour for others. You are here because you are stuck in immigration limbo as I am. I am not doing any favour for any one but myself. Is it very hard for you to understand. I am sure the brightest and highly educated can understand they are the losers if they are not participating.

God bless everyone still in this situation. My son turns 21 in October and we too were faced with this threat. Thankfully we got our I-485 submitted in June and he even received a letter from USCIS directly to him confirming he is now locked in under CSPA protections (which we already knew, but was very nice anyway).
Our attorney had pointed to the potential in the DREAM Act proposals that keep resurfacing . Although primarily drafted to assist illegal children brough here by their parents, the provisions would also apply to children brought here in H4 who aged out. All the other conditions would have to apply, but we had intended to convert our son this fall to F1 and then hope that Dream Act would pass sometime in the next 2 years to save him before he turned 25.
Another angle for those of you trying to seek protection to explore with legislators as there is very broad support for DREAM but it keeps getting caught up in comprehensive reform agenda.
Good luck to all of you still trapped in this dilema, I share your pain and sympathize with the stress this places on you and more improtantly on your kids.

I have H1-b petition approval but i dont have h1-I-94 card.
Is it legal to work without h1-I-94 Card?
Do i need to travel out side of country ?
Read the approval letter. It states that you would need to travel outside the US and apply for H1 visa at US Consulate abroad. If your visa is granted then you can re-enter US with new I-94 card. Stay inside US without a valid I-94 is considered Out-Of-Status.

I got my PP renewed from DC in 7 busines days. Got it back in express mail.
However, the Surname now has only my last name. And the given name contains both my first and middle name.
In my old passport, the surename had both last and middle name while given name had only first name.
Is this a problem? Does anyone here know? I plan to get my h1b visa stamped in India.
thanks.

Here is what my attorney recommended-
1. Get a "Non-Available Certificate" from the municipality
2. Get 2 people to provide affidavit (close relatives) in support of your birth date.
Hope this is helpful. Check with your attorney too.
Really appreciate your time in answering my question.

So there is a possibility that they will issue August Bulletin with limited date movement and act like July bulletin events never happened? Man, and we keep thinking they cannot sink any lower.
Is there a written rule that they have to request number only when they are about to approve a 485? Or is it just been a USCIS procedure. In the latter case they can change it when they want. Then they would have played everything by the rule.
1. On Jun 12 th there were lot of numbers.
2. July 2nd numbers were gone, through USCIS requests.
3. But wait a minute come July 10th some were returned(which is also legal). Now DOS may say numbers are not zero and potentially issue Aug bulletin with June dates or little movement.
4. Every new application now gets them higher fee.
And this could potentially be defense against the lawsuit. May be I am giving too much credit to USCIS but this has the makings of a great book for some official when he/she quits this administration(Like lot of others who have done this earlier).
So is it possible that the following was USCIS' plan all along in a bid to (1) force applicants to pay the higher fees and (2) reduce the number of applications they would receive. So let's try and see where USCIS or DOS acually broke the law. BTW, the following is pure speculation on my part.
1. DOS makes all categories current in the visa bulletin dated June 12.
2. This screws up USCIS's plans. So they have to force the DOS to issue a revision before July 1st.
3. USCIS frantically starts requesting visa numbers. Even for 485s with pending FBI checks.
4. Come July 2nd, USCIS still hasn't used up all the 60,000 or so numbers, but still informs DOS that all visa numbers have been exhausted.
5. DOS publishes a revised visa bulletin dated July 02 where everthing becomes unavailable.
6. USCIS acts on DOS revised visa bulletin and decides to reject all I-485s filed on July 02 and beyond.
7. July 05 onwards, USCIS starts returning the numbers to DOS. This could be for applications that have pending FBI checks.
8. DOS now decides to use some caution before issuing August bulletin. They will probably not make all categories current, but will probably shift them by a few months based on June bulletin.
9. USCIS now gets all new applications with higher fees and a reduced number of applications.
Please add to this sequence of events if you think I missed anything.
IMHO, USCIS broke the law in #4. And DOS broke the law in #5 if it was aware that visa numbers were still being issued as of July 02.
Thanks,
Jayant

u mean the old Passport ? Yes, my old one was issued in India (vizag).
renewal applied by mail to CG SFO, got the new one to my mailing address in US, on the fifth day.
the 10 days estimate they are giving might be including the buffer time for contingencies and
contacting vizag might be the worst case scenario they are telling, but most probably not needed.
i later learned that, u can renew ur PP in India in 3 days, with Tatkal.

Chintu: Explain Wash sale rules too... taxes are a pain with day trading.
Also, ppl on H1B have to be really careful about not getting classified as "active traders." That IMHO could jeopardize status. All who want to get into day trading, do your research. Make sure you know what you are getting yourself into.
Investments are not reflected on W2. If you use a broker such as TDAmeritrade etc they will issue you a 1099
You will receive an IRS Consolidated Form 1099 - an all-inclusive document showing your reportable income and transactions for the entire tax year - if your brokerage account received at least $10 in either dividends, interest or original issue discount (OID) income, or had an equity sale, in the 2008 tax year.
- You will not receive a Consolidated Form 1099 for a retirement account, tax-exempt account, corporate account or foreign account.
- In addition, you may receive a corrected Consolidated Form 1099 if you held an investment trust that reclassified income after this form was sent to you.
There are 2 sets of rates.
1. Short Term Captial Gains
2. Long Term Capital Gains Taxes
Short term capital gains taxes are on stocks that have been held less than one year before selling.
Long time term capital gains taxes are on stocks that have been held more than one year before selling.
Long term capital gains taxes are less than short term capital gains taxes.
If you don't sell the stock, there is no tax on the capital gains.
The amount of tax depends your tax bracket.
The taxes on dividends are usually less than short term capital gains tax. So if you have a stock that is about to pay a dividend, get the dividend before selling, as that will reduce your capital gains.
Hope this helps

... there was a time when it used to be horizontal spillovers. i.e. remaining EB3 from other countries used to go to EB3 I/C/M, and remaining EBx from other countries used to go to EBx I/C/M. (same level to same level)
At that time EB3 I used to get around ~15K-20K, from other countries. Then all of a sudden USCIS started vertical spillover, i.e. any remaining numbers from other countries no matter what EBx, will go to EB1 I/C/M and then fall to EB2 I/C/M and then to EB3 I/C/M.
This way EB3-I gets nothing as everything is consumed at EB2-I level.
If there is a way to get USCIS to start horizontal spillover again, then things can get OK, as USCIS does not need any law change, or any legislation change for this policy.
This is incorrect. EB3 spillovers would come only to EB3 over subscribed countries. It will not goto EB1 or Eb2... But the chance of EB-3 ROW becoming current is almost next to impossible. That is why EB3-I need to depend on spillover from EB2....Since most are applying in Eb2 now, chance of EB2-I becoming current is slim....Thats why Eb3-I is between devil and deep sea.
