Wow. No offense prophet but your post would make all my english teachers turn gray. ;) Took me about 10 minutes just to understand it! Hope you don't use that kind of language on the site you are designing - or they might not take you seriously.
But back to topic - you will get hired for a paying job based on a combination of your talent, knowledge, and experience. Show them what you can do or have done. I've seen some amazing sites done by first-timers and some pretty crappy ones done by folk who have been flashing for awhile. Sites and site designers come in all flavors.

Hello All,
I own a D70 and have had major focus issues. I finally spent 3 hrs at the store where I purchased the camera until they finally agreed that it was defective. I just got a call today saying it was repaired. Hopfully it works. I recomend if somebody purchaces the D70, that you test it extensively before you take it out in the field. Out of 4 people I know with this camera, 3 have the focus problems.

While I do not want to sound discouraging or pessimistic, this is a very good idea and we must do things like this.
Now, it is just not enough if we make this suggestion and discuss it - we must walk the talk. Will we?
To start with, we can do a lot of stuff, get our co workers, families, friends etc.. involved, print flyers, send emails, post blogs, make videos and post them on youtube, hold local community events and increase awareness.
Our own community is still very ignorant and is indirectly working against us, lok at this post on immigration portal
http://boards.immigration.com/showpost.php?p=1859694&postcount=18
just go through the entire thread
http://boards.immigration.com/showthread.php?t=273615
you will understand why things are so difficult for our community.
Our first step will be to concentrate on community building. This is very important. We need to reqruit more volunteers, and they in turn reqruit more volunteers. We must first build a strong community and have a strong foundation.
The reason I am posting this message is to say that whatever novel ideas like the above that have come up in the past have not gone towards getting implemented they just were discusssed and got buried into old threads.
So my question is "can we walk the talk?"

Gurus,
Here is my situation:
I-140 approved - PD: May '06
I-485 filed - July 30 '07 (India)
EAD cards - Received
APs - Received
Due to a slowdown in their business, my employer is laying me off in Dec '07. I'm still short of 1 month to complete my 180 days of I-485 filling. However, they said they will not withdraw my I-140 and, to help me, will in fact keep me on their payroll until Jan '08, with my Jan '08 salary as my severance and my official status as on "paid leave". So far, so good.
I also have a job offer, and my new employer wants me to join them in Dec '07, on EAD. My question is: Can I be on officially on the payroll of two companies simultaneously on H-1B and/or EAD? If yes, do I need to inform the USCIS of my status (new employer; AC21)? My other option is to say No to the new (attractive) job offer (or to try to convince them to wait until Feb '08, which they'll likely not agree to), and and take up another job in Feb '08, on EAD / H-1B transfer, using AC21. Please advise whether I'm fine with using the first option!!
you can be on the payroll of 2 companies on H1 if the H1 petition says that its for concurrent employment. On EAD no such issues, you simply sign new I-9 forms with both employers.
If you are moving to EAD, you can start with second employer right now. If you are going to stick to H1 for some reason, then delay joining the new one by just a few weeks. By the time they file the H1 transfer and the approval comes through, your 180 days will be done or nearly done and you are all set. Its nice that your current employer is helping you out through the 180 days.

Ask your parents (anyone of them) to visit the registrar at the municipal office of your home town. The registrar will issue the birth certificate once your parents submit an affidavit to the office. Hope this helps.
nmdial I dont think the registrar will issue a birth certificate based on affidavit from the parents.
Usually for people who dont have birth registered at birth or hospital records we have to obtain a non-availibility certificate from the local authority. Along with this certificate we submit a notarized affidavit signed by one/both the parents. Now we have learnt that this affidavit has to be signed in the presence of the registrar. Hopefully that should be ok then.

What has changed that they are so confident it will be successful? May be USCIS is scared that this lawsuit might dig out the skeletons from it's closets and there is a settlement in the making? Interesting developments.
" If the lawsuit is successful (and we fully expect it will be), the court will certify classes, and all people who meet the class descriptions will receive the relief the court orders. The class members will not need to �sign up� with AILF to enjoy those rights."

I don't think it is true. My lawyer said using AP will not invalidate H1B.
I have seen many people saying they came through AP and extended H1B , some even 3 times.
Anyway, I am travelling outside and planning to use my AP while coming back. I will post a message if I come through H1B
Thanks Buddy !! PM me when you come back plz.

Hi,
My attorney received an EVL RFE for my I-485 case. My PD is 2007 EB3 so I don't have any hope of getting GC but I guess they are just pre-adjucating my case.
Here is my situation - I filed my !-485 in Aug 2007 and changed job (without filing any AC-21 paperwork with USCIS) in April 2008. My attorney had looked at new job description and given green signal for change. My entire immigration history of 10 years in US is totally clean with no gaps and with all work autorizations.
Now, my concern is that the letter that my attorney has prepared for my current employer to sign has lot of legal lingo (AC-21 language, lot of CFRs, info related to my LCA and I-140) and has some language to the effect of supporting my LCA and I-140 till my GC is approved. It also states that my current employer was able to afford to pay my salary since the LCA date. My employer is fortune 5 company so money wise there is no problem but my concern is that they may not want to sign such a lengthy (wordy) legal doc without consulting their Immi attorney. I don't have much time to respond (only 8 more days). So if my employer takes long time or tells me that they can not sign it, I want to be ready with Plan B. Can someone suggest what should I do?
1 - should I prepare a simple document with job duties, responsibilities, start date, salary etc that my employer will be willing to sign. So at last moment I can atleast get that signed. Something will be better than nothing.
2 - Should I / (bigger question is can I) ask USCIS to give me more time to respond to RFE?
3. Provide simple letter from employer with an affedavit or something stating that the new job is same / similar as the old job.
Sorry for a long post and thanks for any suggestions.

I agree with Ronhira. He is not campaigning for dems.
What he says is right. There is more to saying "he is doing a lip service, didn't fix this, didn't do this", etc.. Yes, he would have said that. But there is a lot more to think about than simply saying "he didn't do xyz". He deals tons of things day in and day out, and with a lot more force.
We need to completely come out of our frustration mode and think about that. Its not a one man job to get a bill passed. It take A LOT!
He inherited the worst economy when he assumed office and he took it to thus far. He got the healthcare reform passed, which is as sensitive and as complex as Immigration.
Don't say I am campaigning or pro-dem. I don't care a dime about politics. :D

What can be done/ What needs to be done.... Lets do it
Can the guru's of the forum please let us know if there is a campaign we can start/restart. SOMETHING needs to be done, right now

This is not new, it has been there for a while and almost everyone who googled AC21 would have read Murthy's page.
Whatever Murthy has mentioned is her opinion. Aytes memo has not been more stricter than Yates memo but has been more clear.
So lets continue to send letters
Hmm... seems that CIS can not just change the stand so easily. Here is one attorney's take on this.

If this happened to your daughter before even the july fiasco, what didfference it makes if it happenes again with the fiasco over our heads?
What kind of identity theft you think will happen and why?
When it happenes with your credit card at famous outlets, why the heck we should be too worried if it happens at USCIS?
Whatz your point?
Cant you think and understand what the post meant?
He is mentioning a very valid point. 485 has all the information which one needs to screw up some one's credit history which takes years and years to build up.
I hope now u will get the point.

If you put the IOs into situation where they can potentially make mistakes...
more often then not, they will make a mistake. Then you have to pay the USCIS to fix their own mistake by filing MTR. Not to mention unnecessary stress... That being said, everybody has different risk tolerance.

Oh, so when you made the statement below you were not assuming everyone fakes their projects because YOU faked yours? All of a sudden you became this guy that has never faked his resume! From your statement anyone would assume that you are not the guy you are claiming to be - genuine!
Pllleeeease dont act sacrosant.. dont tell me you never faked your resume about your project to get a break.
