I think I am in the same boat,
I am almost ready to file 3 years H-1 extension based on I-140 approval and priority date not current (as of day before yesterday that is what we all knew). Since I don't have 365 days for the labor filing, I am not eligible for 1 year extension.
I wrote that to my lawyer and they told me that we can still file before the end of June using premium processing since the priority date are current effective July 1st. But they don't know how USCIS will act. They may approve the extension for 3 years or they may deny the extension.
What you guys suggest.
Completed initial 6 years of H-1 in December 2005
Priority Date October 19th, 2006
I-140 approval - April 13th, 2007
Current H-1 expires October 15th, 2007

:confused: Anyone know what the faces mean?
:rolleyes: This one is particular.

This is the always problem with USCIS in porting PD. In my case they have put PD as 485 application received date. The only solution to this is ..Keep your attorney in the loop and ask them to send letters repeatedly and call the customer service center repeatedly..
There is no other way you can correct the PD. In my case I had an interview with officer and we gave both i-140 documents and told officer PD was printed wrong on interview letter. Officer said she will look into it and we dont know whether she corrected it or not.
Once your dates are current, please keep calling them and follow up thru AILA and congressman and senators office etc..This task can be done by your attorney also.

I don't have the I-797A's I-94 which was attached to the bottom since I had to submit that in Jan 2009 when I'd visited India and come back to the US with H1-B stamping. I do have a copy of this I-797A's I-94...would giving this copy be better than not providing any at all? Thanks, Vick

Q17: How will USCIS interpret the language of AC21 Sec 104(c) (for three-year H-1B extensions) during a period in which AOS applications could be filed?
A17. USCIS interprets AC21 �104(c) as only applicable when an alien, who is the beneficiary of an approved I-140 petition, is eligible to be granted lawful permanent resident status but for application of the per country limitations. Any petitioner seeking an H-1B extension on behalf of a beneficiary pursuant to AC21 �104(c) must thus establish that at the time of filing for such extension, the alien is not eligible to be granted lawful permanent resident status on account of the per country immigrant visa limitations

Gurus,
When I filed/sent my Paper based I-131 - Advance Parole (AP) form yesterday I forgot to attach the photographs along with it. I just realised it now.
Now what are the options I have. Will USCIS reject my I-131 - Advance Parole (AP) application packet and send it back or would they ask for RFE(Request for Evidence) of photograph.
Or is it OK to send the photographs and mention the Alien A# .
Has any body been through this situation before. I was planning on using AP for travel to INDIA in the few months now I guess I am in serious mess.
Your help is much appreciated.

Nik,
I had to live with a 70-300 Sigma that was f/3.5-5.6 for a long time. While I made do for sports and motorsports type stuff, my world opened up when I upgraded to a fixed f/2.8 zoom. Hold off a bit, if needed, and get a faster lens. You'll be much happier.
If you're mostly going to be doing landscapes and whatnot, the slower lens will work just fine.
