If so, what are you using? I'm using a Nikon 60mm f/2.8 AF-D micro, the usual reversers, the extension rings, etc. But I think I'm going to be buying myself some more working distance and invest in a 200mm f/4 micro - have you been happier with anything cheaper than this solution on your nikon?
Has anyone tried the Canon screw in diopter adjustment lenses for 77mm filter size Nikon lenses?
This is a 60mm Macro shot...

This is the same 60mm lens but with three extension tubes (pk11, pk12, pk13) stacked to increase magnification of the lens.

For every IV member that gets their GC, would it be too much to ask them to contribute say at least $100/- ? May be this can become a norm and the starting point for an "IV Alumni" :)
The folks who will be getting their GC's in the next 2 months can show the way - Along with posting the happy news that you got your GC and of course posting your RD and ND and PD and the fact whether you had AC21 or EAD or whatever :), will it be too much to give something back to the community that helped you all the way?
I think this would be a noble gesture in support of this organization that has supported the cause of lots and lots of employment based immigrants.

Hello all,
Recently I got my H1B stamped at Mumbai India, this was my
third H1B, and fifth US visa(I got two B1/B2s in addition). The
US Visa stamping process has been streamlined and better organized
than it was when I got my first one in 1999!:)
Process started with me paying visa fees upfront at HDFC bank.
after paying the fees, they will give two copies of the receipt,
one for you and one for the consulate.
Next step is to get yourself photographed. Every photo studio
in Bombay knows the specification now, so it was no problem.:)
Get digital copies of the photographs.
Next step is to go online and fill the application forms. One needs
to upload photographs and enter the fee payment receipt number
in the form. Once completed, print the application after saving.
The application form has a bar code, so please make no changes
after the printout, if you do one needs to take a fresh print.
The next step was to arrange an appointment for visa stamping
which can be done online, once appointment is fixed
one can go to the visa application center which is very
near the Consulate at Breach Candy. They will verify the application
and give you a confirmation of the appointment. Make sure
that you submit your application form at least three business
days before the visa appointment.
To avoid the morning hour traffic we checked into a hotel
near the consulate. The appointment was 10:30 AM, but we
reached the consulate at 10:00. The appointment confirmed
suggested we do not go to the consulate before 10:15, but
went ahead anyway. The security let us in. :) The consulate
was full of visa aspirants, and I braced myself for a long wait.
We submitted our application forms after getting our fingers
printed.
To my surprise, we were called for interview at around 10:10.
The consulate officer commented that I have already lived
in the US, to which I said yes. The question was repeated to
my wife, who also had a stint in the US. Then she asked me
what kind of work I will be doing in US. I gave a rather long
answer which I guess bored her a bit. My six year daughter
complained that it she is tired, the consular officer started
small talk with her. Then she said my passport will be sent
by courier. By 10:20 we were on our way back home.
We received our passports separately over the next 10 days.
surprisingly my daughter got hers within 2 days, but my
wife had to wait full 10 days!
I am in the US now :)

If Skill Bill passes eventually, won't EB2 be beneficial over EB3.
I used my EB2 (jan 2006) over EB3 (March 2005)
SKIL doesnt look at EB2 or EB3, only whether you have a US graduate degree in STEM.

I have one year left on my second H1. I am EB3, Canadian born category. Just got I-140 approved last week or so. I've been working here in California for the same employer for 6 years. My PD is Nov 04. I feel like I've taken a big career hit.
--
Can't answer all your questions but here is what I did. I had been working for the same company for five years. My priority date was Sept. ' 02. I finally got a 45 day letter in March '05. I decided not to remain hostage to the green card process. I changed my job mid-2005. Refiled all the paperwork. I was in my 5th year of H1B. You are in a better situation than me because your I-140 has been approved and having worked there for six years you might be able to convince them not to revoke it if you change your job.
I suggest you write down all your career and personal goal for next five years. Prioritize. Act on whatever takes precedence. Be very honest because you will need to face the consequences, job satisfaction vs delayed green card.

It may be better to contact Judy Woodruff, who is driving this whole program at Yahoo. I remember seeing Judy as a former CNN anchor (quite a prominent one).
Judy may be the link to other possibilities for IV.

It will be helpful if we are allowed to apply for I-485 & EAD, even if the visa numbers are not available. They could atleast throw this bone to us, which will be helpful in not needing H1B and allow us to change jobs. Hope they make this amendment to this Bill.
I know the Core team will already be working on this.

Wow. This is news to me?
How can an employee get two different tax-ids if he is shifting departments and still is in same country?
Thanks for the info. This piece of info few months ago would have made my life.

I applied for extension last june for my initial h1b which was expiring Sep 30, 2008... technically speaking, the extension is still pending.... but I applied for h1 transfer in Dec and after answering a couple of RFEs and applying for premium in March, I finally got it approved last week.
The sad part is they approved it without an I-94 (as consular process), as my I-94 was expired when I applied for transfer... the original extension was applied 4 months before I-94 expired, but since it is still pending, they said they can only approve the transfer as consular process. I couldn't get time off from work now, and I really didn't want to rush to india just for stamping, so I decided to stay here and work on EAD. I hope to get it stamped, when I go to india maybe next year.

Hey Bro, as far as I know they only test for HIV, Siphilis,TB and Gonorrhea. I am loking at the copy of my medicals right now and I don't see Herpes mentioned anywhere. So I dont think the blood test looks for that. So don't jump the gun and tell the surgeon that you have it. My surgeon didn't even do a genital exam only checked my groin for lymph nodes. SO as far I can see you will be OK. Just take it easy and go for the test. ;)
Better ask the Doctor what test he needs. All doctors donot go for all the tests.

Hi All,
I received an RFE based on my qualification and the Job requirement qualification.
While applying for PERM, in the ETA 9089 form, Attorney mistakenly listed as below
1. Accepted / Required Bachelors Degree for the Posted Job:
Computer Science, Mathematics (Instead of Mathematics, it should have been Engineering)
2. Any Other Alternate Degree accepted:
NO
And in my profile, he listed the degree as ENGINEERING.
Now during the I-140 stage, i got an RFE based on this mismatch. Here is the verbiage.
The USCIS is requesting evidence that the beneficiary obtained a Bachelor�s Degree in Computer Science or Mathematics, OR evidence that the degree obtained was part of the Computer Science or Mathematics program/department.
MY Attorney Suggested 2 things.
1. Get my degree transcripts evaluated by a third party educational evaluator and equate the courses i have done (7 Computer Courses and 9 Mathematics courses) as part of Computer Science / Mathematics Degree.
2. Get an verification letter from the University that these courses are infact related to Computer Science / Mathematics Degree.
Please let me know if i stand any chance with these 2 options.

Answers to the best of my knowledge. Read my Disclaimer at the end...
Questions:-
1) To take an appointment in India we need to get the HDFC bar code, for which we need to present the copy of first page of passport. Can we take an appoinment on the basis of old passport & then carry both the old & new passport at the time of interview?
-- Yes. You can do that and explain the consular officer abt the need for new passport
If yes, on which passport will we get the stamp? If only the old passport then do we need to take another appointment later to get the new passport stamped.
-- Stamping in one of the ppt is enough. You need to carry both of your passports wherever you go. In my case i went for my stamping last month and my passport is expiring Aug 07. I have my 3 year stamping on my ppt.
2) Do we need to take seperate appointment for my husband & me to get the stamping done in India ?
-- One appt for both of u is enough. There is provision to add upto 10 applicants of the same family in 1 appt slot.
3) Will appointment be available in Feb or we r too late ?
-- They have opened it up in all embassies. You will get it.
Try the link https://www.vfs-usa.co.in/Home.aspx to get an estimate.
Feel free to ask me for any more qns.

Also note that, most times, paralegals or attorneys do things that are wrong and they knowingly do it for some advantage of theirs. Certain things are not on paper, and they discuss it over the phone. When something wrong happens, they deny that they ever did it.
I am of a strong opinion that we must have face to face discussions with attorneys before they deal with our case.
My company's attorney always communicated only on phone or emails, and at times this makes me nervous. Same with my wife's attorney. He once cancelled a face to face appointment he owed us, because of some other important thing that he had.
In this system, if someone suffers, it is us and no one else, everyone will escape and try to blame us. One must be very careful.
Also be extra cautious when dealing with para legals. Most times, they have no clue what they talk, it is always better to deal with the Attorney in decision making, and as pappu suggested, it is always good to seek opinion from another attorney as a consultant.
