How does this effect anyone applying for DL..
http://a257.g.akamaitech.net/7/257/2422/01jan20081800/edocket.access.gpo.gov/2008/08-140.htm
Are we going to get temporary DLs from now on?
Can someone confirm? I know IV is following up with MI state Attorney Generals office, but from reading the ruling the validity of the license is not clear.
Here is a response to a comments by DHS..Looks like for most of us whose i94 will be expired but have filed an application like 485 whic is pending..hence the lawful end date of stay is indeterminate - the license will be 1 year only...bummer
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Comment: Numerous States expressed concern that the current
processing time involved in USCIS review of applications for various
immigration statuses impacted by REAL ID will result in a large number
of applicants who wish to renew their licenses but their applications
to extend their status has not been acted on by USCIS within the year.
Two States suggested that States issue interim documents that would be
valid for very short periods until an applicant receives his or her
permanent document demonstrating lawful status. Another commenter
suggested that such an interim card be based on the applicant's visa
until authorization is received and verified through SAVE, which should
be programmed to contact the querying State when there is an updated
applicant status. One commenter recommended that the rule allow States
to use a license expiration date 90 days beyond the expiration date of
the immigration document to allow for USCIS processing of applications
to extend lawful status. Commenters said that individuals in certain
statuses will not be able to comply with the requirement to present
documentation showing extended lawful status upon renewal because in
most cases, their statuses will not have been extended but merely
continued.
Response: Again, State DMVs will use the SAVE system, and not
particular documentation, to determine that the license applicant is in
lawful status. An application that is properly filed with USCIS
entitles the person to remain in lawful status beyond the period listed
on the person's Form I-94 or other immigration document, that
information is reflected in the SAVE system. Thus, aliens in these
situations would be able to obtain REAL ID-compliant licenses and
States would not have to add any additional processes with USCIS.

My gully, I should have issued personal cheque instead of asking the atty. to use his cheques. I could then saved the trouble of asking the atty. everynow and then.
I still have 20 days left before I could get my RN based on the rate of receipting recently.

The reason you did not get an approval with I-94 is that it seems your current status is valid only till May and I am not sure if your attorney included the documents (I-20) mentioning that you will be enrolled in Kaplan from June - Oct......USCIS wont approve a H1 with I-94 if you do not show evidence that you have valid status till Oct 1st.....

Bush and the others were sure to have a bill by the end of the year 2006, did you see any bill (beside the Bill wall) ?
No, so don`t worry...nothing will happen.
well they tried it did'nt happen because of Republican controled house, we now have Democratic controled house who favor more towards CIR, I think Bush working with Republican senators to get approval for his bill
atleast this is the only issue where president and democrats come close to agreeing on,
Question, does Democrats puts politics ahead by not giving credit to Bush for resolving immigration is the real issue
I do see more chances this year ofcourse this will be do or die situation for many immigration hopefuls

Hi Mandy, and welcome to Dphoto.
The choice of DSLR's is not an easy one.
By all accounts, the Digital Rebel/300D is an excellent camera.
So is the Olympus, as far as I know.
The Canon will give you a greater selection of lenses.
There's also another great choice in the Nikon D70.
Why would one be better than the other? Depends on what you want, really. All of them take good photos.
Canon probably have THE best selection of lenses, all the way from cheap-n-cheerful to expen$ive professional level where a single lens will break your budget several times over. There's also a good selection of other accessories, such as a number of flash-guns, and other bits and pieces.
At $779.95 (after rebate) from B&H Photo (this is not an endorsement), it leaves you with a small lump of money to extend the kit, or spare cash for your trip.
The big advantage on the Nikon D70 compared to Canon would be it's ability to take more fast shots in a row. That would be useful if you're after snapping sports/action shots, but if you just want to take a few shots of beutiful land/streetscapes, your friends/family and the odd young one having a go at baseball, it's not really an advantage as such. There may be some other features that I don't know about, but I would think those differences are minor. On the other hand, it's a little bit out of your budget.
The big advantage on Olympus side is the smaller form-factor for the lenses. I'm pretty sure that Olympus would want it to stay, and it's very unlikely to disappear in the next few years. If anything, it's most likely a forward path, but who knows... I'm pretty sure both Canon and Nikon are watching carefully.
I own the EOS 10D, because I wanted the sports ability, which is slightly better on the 10D compared to the Digital Rebel. But I was locked into Canon from owning a fair amount of lenses that would cost MUCH more than the cost of the camera body to replace. I've been "collecting" those lenses for some time. And to sell used lenses to buy similar ones from another brand gets pretty expensive, so once you've selected a brand, you need a much bigger advantage from another brand to switch.
That doesn't apply when the photographer gets paid for the pictures taken, especially since the equipment in this case often gets quite a bit of (accidental) abuse, and needs replacing with much shorter intervals than the amateurs would anyway. This is why Canon pretty much won overnight on the transition to Autofocus. Canon had a better solution than Nikon, but they also "forced" a change of lenses. The professionals jumped on the Canon system because it gave them a small advantage of getting a better shot, even if they used to have a Nikon before they changed over].
Anyway, I'm not sure this is much help, but perhaps gives you a few pointers in the right direction.
Also, I would advice that you get the camera at least a few weeks before you go on vacation, so that you can get used to the camera.

My luck is just not good w.r.t GC. Afte long wait my spouse finally had received her FP notice and is scheduled for her FP in couple of days. But today she accidently burnt her finger and that too right at the spot where we give the FP.

Any similar experiences , please post.
Yep..not to worry..just go there on the date of appt..they'll just ask you to come back when the finger heals...I cut my finger...officer made a notation on my form and asked me to come when it heals..I went after a month and got it done

Just an update from my front, for the info of anyone else in a similar boat.
Consulate issued me a stamp to 4/30/2010.
I re-entered US. The officer at the Canadian airport issued me an I94 for 3 years from arrival date (instead of all the way to 4/30/2010). I am sure I will travel some other time in the next couple of years and I expect I will get an I94 all the way to 4/30/2010 when I enter back.
Here is my situation:
Currently on 7th year H1 extension which expires 4/30/2007 (7th year extension not stamped in passport).
Have another 3 year extension approval ie., 5/1/2007-4/30/2010.
Will be travelling to canada on Feb 22nd for visa stamping.
Few qns:
1) Will the consulate issue me a visa all they way to 4/30/2010?
If yes, will they issue two stamps in the passport one to 4/30/2007 and one to 4/30/2010, or just one stamp?
2) If they issue one all the way to 4/30/2010, I am assuming I can re-enter the country straightaway ie., the visa does not have an effective "begin" date of 5/1/2007.
Anyone have any experience with a similar situation?
Your help will be appreciated.

I am in the same boat here. It took a huge effort to convince new company to process H1 and now their attorney is saying they can not file H1 unless I140 and LC copies are provided. My current company does not provide those documents.
I140 approval is more than 180 days. Please help guys
Thanks

Do not use some one's profile, if you want answer from any one. To make a new profile will take less than 10 minutes. If you don't have 10 minutes, then how other people spend their time to answer your questions. You want free advice, but you are not willing to join IV. This all shows the mindset of the people.
Any way using some one's username and password is highly illegal. Ask IV moderator for permission to use some body's account.
guys..it is very unfortunate that you felt that im here to make sensation by creating stories out of my head..!
the qn raised afew months ago was my friend who had this profile in this community..she gave me the link of the response, and also asked me to use her profile in future as she seldom use this community herself..in my situation, when we are going through lot of stress, i did not find time to create a new profile or update the current profile...i hope its not a major crime!!
today i checked the profile page, and i did not see anything relevant information that i can add (most of it is GC application related, which im not dong). the only thing i could do is remove the state of residence of my friend!
i cannot reveal my identity or share my personal information in a public forum other than my location which is India.
My employer had filed a civil complaint, saying i have broken the contract which i signed with them that i will work with them for 18 months!
if you do not feel comfortable helping a person without knowing the identity(i dnt see anybody in this forum using their real name), it is totally fine.
