I'm thinking of opening savings account with Alliant, currently pays 2% APY.
Money saved is money earned!!!
Does anyone have accounts with them? If yes, can you tell the experiences - good or bad with them?
Thanks

My Inlaws went for their Visitors visa stamping at Chennai today - interview was smooth - it was in Telugu and they had a very nice translator - the VO was also very friendly. They got their visa without any questions.

I hadn't noticed the little white spot - you are quite right and I'll zap it.
This version of the image isn't super sharp. This is the first one I've tried to upload to this forum and I had some trouble doing it. It kept telling me that my file size was too large so I wound up having to reduce the quality a fair bit to get it uploaded within the file size allowed.
It is actually hardly cropped at all. The original is quite a bit sharper than this but then again the camera was not a DSLR but the sony F707 which is one of the first 5 megapixel cameras. I recently upgraded to an 8mp Nikon 8800 but am very disappointed with the resolution of that camera in the telephoto range. I see a Canon DSLR in the near future.

The Immigration and Nationality Act (Act) provides for the admission of different classes of nonimmigrants who are foreign nationals seeking temporary admission to the United States. The purpose of the nonimmigrant�s intended stay in the United States determines his or her proper nonimmigrant classification. Some classifications permit the nonimmigrant�s spouse and qualifying children to accompany the nonimmigrant to the United States or to join the nonimmigrant here. To qualify, a child must be unmarried and under the age of 21.
F-1 nonimmigrants, as defined in section 101(a)(15)(F) of the Act, are foreign students coming to the United States to pursue a full course of academic study in SEVP-approved schools. An F-2 nonimmigrant is a foreign national who is the spouse or qualifying child of an F-1 student.
M-1 nonimmigrants, as defined in section 101(a)(15)(M) of the Act, are foreign nationals pursuing a full course of study at an SEVP-approved vocational or other recognized nonacademic institution (other than in language training programs) in the United States. An M-2 nonimmigrant is a foreign national who is the spouse or qualifying child of an M-1 student.
SEVP is the DHS program that administers SEVIS. It ensures that government agencies have essential data related to nonimmigrant students and exchange visitors to preserve national security. SEVP provides approval and oversight to schools authorized to enroll F and M nonimmigrant students and gives guidance to both schools and students about the requirements for maintenance of their status.
ICE SEVP I-17 FAQs provide information for schools about SEVP certification, including background on SEVP and SEVIS, SEVP certification basics, an overview of the SEVP certification process, preparing the petition for SEVP certification, and preparing for a site visit.

Guys,
I am currently working as Programmer Analyst for a company who is currently doing the GC. I have been with them for about 7 years.
Starting next month I am going to use my H1 7th year.
I am pondering about a new offer Firmware Engg. My GC detaisl are below:
PD: 06/2003 -- EB3
Education: MS
I am planning to stay in H1B, if possible with the new employer. But thinking of doing PERM and see if I can port my earlier date during I-140 filing.
Any suggestions or recommendations ...
Thanks
Srini
Better to agree on terms beforehand

Shouldn't be difficult but it is the USCIS that we are talking about after all. Unless it is passed as law, it wont happen. A dual stage I-485 application process was being discussed last year but nothing came out of it. Piecemeal legislations will not pass as the public wants CIR not bandaids.
And FYI, EAD does not eliminate employer dependency—you still need an employer.

Thank you Sir,
Do you think if she cancels her interview, she can go to the interview again after sometime, without affecting her future prospects of getting a GC.

some where i read in the forum if we leave the country without the approval of ap our 485 status will be abonded.
If you leave the country after getting your I-485 receipts then its okay whether you get your Advance Parole papers or not since you are going for H1 stamping and are not going to use AP anyway.
It does not matter. Some people do not even file for AP if they are going to use their H1 visa to re-enter the country.
But remember your I-485 receipt is very important. Always keep it handy ( do not leave without it ):)

AILA Leadership Has Just Posted the Following:
In an interview on David Letterman (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpvNXPPOMr8), actor Robert Downey, Jr., talked about a problem he had last year in Japan, when upon entering he was detained and questioned about his past criminal record. Downey said: I probably should have seen there was a sign that said 'No Felons Allowed' in English and Japanese and I haven't had that expunged yet," he said. "You can actually get things expunged but I've been pretty busy. So I was detained, I was interrogated. It was a blast.
Haven't you settled up? Haven't you paid your debts? Letterman asked.
Clearly I haven't paid my debts to Japan, said Downey.
While I certainly feel somewhat bad for Mr. Downey, this short exchange gave the impression that nothing similar would ever happen in America! Hah!
U.S. Immigration Law contains restrictions that bar entry to people forever, for virtually any youthful indiscretion they have ever had, e.g. simple possession of a marijuana 20 years ago, without regard to whether or not you were actually convicted of the crime! You do not even need to have been convicted; the fact that you admit you did it will also get you barred from entry. Heck you will even be bounced (http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/43) from the United States after overstaying your visa for one day, leaving one day late, and then trying to come back in on that visa. Or, you will be detained and returned because the officer thinks you MIGHT be working (http://addxorrol.blogspot.com/2007/07/ive-been-denied-entry-to-us-essentially.html).
So, if you were watching David Letterman and thanking your lucky stars that America is far nicer to arriving tourists than Japan--think again!

I have my H1 filed in 2008. Due to the market situation, I didn't go for H1 stamping and was never active on H1 so far. I entered US in March 2009 on H4. Now I got a project and want to go for the H4->H1 COS.
I would like to know the steps/process for H4 -> H1 COS.
I know my employer is the best person to answer this. But, the problem is whenever I ask any details, he always tries to abstract the info.
If there are sequence of steps, after which step one is authorized to work? I tried getting the info online, but couldn't . If any of you can give me a pointer or explain the process in detail, it would be very great and helpful.
My employer has applied for LCA. He says that he would initiate the COS process as soon as he gets the LCA. And my employer says that I can start working as soon as he files for COS and no need to wait for the approval. I want to make sure that I don't run into any legal issues. Once the employer has initiated the COS process, is there a way one can track the status and also to verify the status after the completion of the process.
Also, please let me know how much it would cost for normal and premium processing and also the time lines for the normal and premium processing.
Sorry for too many questions. But, please please do help!!!
Thanks a ton in advance!!

Hi ,
I received NOID on my i 485 (to be precise here is what it states)
1)" 140 filled on behalf of you has been revoked by my previous employer ,also mentioned as it is after 180 days of filling my 485 ,but my application still valid with in the meaning of section 204 of the act.
but they asked for employment verification letter from my recent employer with duties,educational qualification and offered wage of salary as it is .
2) Inmatter of semerjian ,it was held that an immigrant alien with in the purview of section 212 (a)(14) must establish a bona fied intent to work in USA,immediately or in fore seeable future,in his or her qualifying endeavour or in a related field.
3) It was further held in matter of tanaham ,18 I & N dec.339(reg.comm.1981)under section 245 of act who meets the objective pre requisites is merely eligible to apply for adjustment of status. when an alien seeks the favourable exercise of discretion by this service ,it is incumbent up on alien to establish that he or she merits adjustment
what does number 2 and 3 mean? what should be provided in evidence to that?Please advice.
The date on the notice is june 23 rd ,but i received my mail 2 weeks back to the adress where i work.(say july 24 th)
Iam away from that adress since 2 weeks
