Actually being a Defence employee is a positive. You can show proof of stronger connection to home country because of following.
1) Pension that is available every month for life.
2) Free treatment at Army Hospitals.
3) Subsidised cost at Military Canteen facilities for provisions etc.
In my opinion, the strongest proof of connection to the home country is that the person has put his/her life on the line in her (the home country's) defense..
(Obviously, my opinion does not matter to the consulate officers who give the visa :rolleyes: )

Get a syllabus booklet from your university. if you attended a 4 year course they will send you 1 booklet for each year which describes the required courses and the course content in detail. Send this with your reply to the RFE, refer to the pages where they mention the course content and graduation requrements. A friend of mine did this 6 years back for his RFE and was approved. The problem was that the transcript mentioned math but USCIS had not idea of the level of math at the university (yours could be similar...just guessing).
The other option could be to get your transcripts evaluated by a third party.

I see 2 sets of people in this forum. One who has recent priority date (2005-2007) and they want to process I-485 by receipt date and another set who has much older PD, they want I-485s processed by priority date.
Guys, this is awkward.. There is no point in keep fighting and speculating..we will wait and see

Thanks once again for the reply.
When you say I can retain the priority date, how does that work? Do I have to file the PERM again? Isn't the PERM what gives us the priority date? And then will I have to file the I-140 or is it that I need to file the I-140 only?
Thanks

You are still on H1 status. Why do you want to apply for AP. Get your H1 stamped when you leave the country and you can get in on H1 status.

There have been many issues with USCIS and three year degrees from Canada, India and the UK. If you want to fight this then you have to prove that your education is equivalent to a US bachelors which many of the degrees from some countries are. You cannot use experience towards adding credits to your degree when dealing with an I-140 like you can for a H1B visa. Two years equals an Associate degree - three year bachelors programs can be (and have been) proven to equal a US bachelors.
This degree evaluation company has been the most successful in generating acceptable evaluations that complete a successfull case approval. It cost me a lot more than I expected but at least I was able to get my I-140 approved.

Your story looks similar to mine. Before I go for my side of story let me tell you that going for premium is always good idea. I got my new I-140 (EB3) got approved within 2 weeks after we applied for my third green card process. Now with your labor and approve I-140 and remaining H1B visa you can go to new employer. I think you have plenty of time to go to new employer and transfer remaining time in your H1B. In between you can ask current employer not to revoke I-140 once it processed. This way you can later transfer dates from current GC process to new one. I think you are quite secure at this point of time to move to new employer. Just take in confidence with current employer for not to invoke I-140 until you transfer your date.
On my side of the story I did same thing (as explained above) in 2006 because of lay off . I had almost 1 year of time remaining on my H1B and had already crossed 6 years limit on H1B.). I did transferred my remaining H1B time to new employer (where I am right now) and started my GC process (2nd green card. I did not complete labor process or I-140 at my earlier employer so could not get transferred date). I got my labor approved for 2nd GC within few days of filling in late 2006 so my attorney filed for my H1B extension in 2007 for one more year based on my new labor. I don't know you call it luck that I got my extension of H1B for 1 more year based on new labor. As of now we have filed for 3rd GC for me because my I-140 got denied based on my education (A year ago we have appealed for the same)
In short what you can do is to go for premium proc for I-140 and transfer remaining H1 to new employer and try filling extension of H1 at new employer after it expires. Its little risky but like you said you might get laid off sooner or later. As always above information is from my experience but attorney can give you right advice. I did pay $200 to Murthy for advice on what to do while I was in your kind of situation in 2006.
Good luck.
My six year term of H-1B ends on 15th Nov 2011. My present employer is filling my I-140 ( as I am paying all the expenses) and the lawyer tells me that she will be able to file in 30 days in EB-2 ctaegory. However , now my job does not look very secure and I am afraid I might be laid off while my I-140 is pending. Thats why I am considering filing under premium processing by paying money out of my pocket.
My reasoning behind this is:
1) If laid off, with an approved I-140, I can apply for 3 year extension on a new H-1B with another employer and then work towards capturing my PD when time permits.
I realize I might have to go to H-4 to avoid getting out of satus while I am looking for new employer. Can anyone please guide if I have my bases covered or if there is a flaw in my reasoning. Should I go for premium processing or not.
Thanks

Hi Gary,
As you discovered strobe is hard to work with for tricky product shots, and glassware can be tricky. I would switch to a floodlight bounced off the ceiling as a starting point. Possibly tinkering with the reflectors to get a little more sparkle in the front would improve it somewhat, as would placing hidden pieces of something to have the transmitted portion of the glass brightened a little. To soften the edge of the highlights try opening the lens to a wider aperature so the reflections are out of focus (gets a little tricky as it probably needs to be stoped down enough to maintain the sharpness of the glass itself.
You probably don't need to spend much on equipment (maybe $5 each for a couple hardware store flood reflectors or a couple bucks for a little more poster board. Maybe 50 cents for a pack of 3x5 cards to cut up to hide behind the glassware , or maybe the gray side of scraps of duct tape might look better)
The basic approach that works best when it must look superb is usualy to lock everything down, shoot it, evaluate, make incremental changes, and reshoot. and sometimes repeat.

Thanks for taking the interest and posting the comment.
What you mean is change the content of the webfax,not the format.
Anyways, the current draft of Specter bill would lead to numbers flowing downward(unused numbers due to 7% or 10% per country limit). When they flow downwards from EB2, EB3 and EB4, they go to EB5 where there is no mention of per country limit(by omission).
You know what this means? After all the gains, the country limit on India and China will cause the overflow of all visa numbers to EB5(Unskilled labor, gardeners, cooks, maids) WHERE THERE IS NOT COUNTRY LIMIT and unlimited demand. And over there, in absence of no country limit, immigrants from Mexico will consume all EB5 unskilled numbers and there wont be anything like "UNUSED" numbers.(read the thread posted by STUCKLABOR for that analysis and legalese. : http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=241 )
Coming back to proposals of Specter, the idea that there is so much relief that we dont need to worry about this or that...here is the thing...Current markup is a proposal. Not even a final version of Judiciary committee markup. From there you lose some things when it goes to the full floor of senate and then A LOT OF THINGS when the hawks from the HOUSE of REPS like Tancredos and Smiths slither their tentacles on the Senate version in the CONFERENCE COMMITTEE. That's the reason we dont want to lose one thing even if we are gaining 10 things because those 10 things might be reduced to 2 by the time its negotiated in the conference committee between the house and the senate.
However, if you want to provide more input on this issue, you are most welcome to email Sandeep who is leading the content-prep team that writes these webfaxes and letters. His email is sandeep@immigrationvoice.org

Hi,
Assuming that one has file for the I-485 - just wanted to clarify that EAD/AP can be filed even if the priority dates are not current. In other words, EAD/AP has no dependency on the priority date being current.
Regards
ZooZee
PD is applicable only to 485 and has no bearing on EAD and AP. You can always apply for EAD and AP if you already have a 485 receipt.
cheers

Even I have got same message yester day. But now it shows the package was delivered when i checked today morning.
I have one more question here. The I-765 and I-131 are two different post box numbers. we can send both applications to the same P.O.BOX or different. If we send two different P.O.BOX then both will reach to same P.O. BOX or different P.O.BOXs.

Send them in a different packet to separate post box numbers. Do NOT send in the same package. They will get another reason to delay your application processing.
On a separate note. This morning the USPS tracking says its delivered and signed for at 6:00 am this morning. :-)

Does your Attorney says that counter will start from Aug 28, 2007 ?
Did he say anything about Aug 28, 2007 falling out of Aug 17, 2007 limit date for filing AOS and can that cause any issues?
I am still waiting for an answer from my Attorney. Will post the details here as soon as I hear anything from them.

Yes, the SB800 is the best option for a flash with the D70 (http://www.noendpress.com/pvachier/cameras/nikon_D70.php). As for lenses, depends on what you need. I think the 50mm 1.8 is a great lens for only $100. Works very well for wider portraits and any kind of low light photography. If you have the money to spend, the 12-24 is also a very useful lens.
