Interesting to know this.. but it could be just the person whom you talked to.. did not mean to play down your enthu.. its just my thought as USCIS/NSC cannot afford to have another round of communication issues over the mess that they have presented us with "effective" communication between DOS/USCIS on June 13th and July 2nd.

I still don't think flash and silverlight are comparable, they'll be used for different things in the end anyways.
Well yeah, Flash and Silverlight are not comparable... Flex and Silverlight are... Anyway, I don't think that the guys at Adobe will just sit on their butts and do nothing to keep up the pace with all the other technologies... as Senocular said, Silverlight and C# are a beast but every technology has it's advantages and disadvantages... I wouldn't worry about the future of Flash / Flex, I'm sure we'll be still using those technologies even in 10 years from now ( but maybe under a different name and with different features ).

IV core shud approach republicans who are saying no amnesty to law breakers.
Let us approach them and convince them to bring amendments to reward law abiding people like us.
Americans want immigrants like yourself who follow the rules and contribute to American society; it is our valued tradition. What we don't want is illegals walking all over our laws. The illegals hurt lawfull immigrants. I married an immigrant who followed the rules, she's very bitter over the way this country is pandering to the Hispanic Reconquista crowd. Americans don't want the amnesty, but the government is pushing for it. Legal immigrants and applicants, IMO, should stand up and be heard to fight anmesty as well.

How about pledging anywhere between 1 to 5 % of our tax returns? If enough people do it, that should do the trick.. But we need to widen the base, I think.. I don't think the problem is of people not contributing enough, the real problem is that we do not have enough people contributing.
But an interesting idea nevertheless.. though 2K is beyond my means at the moment. :o

Vancouver stamping experience (Oct 2009):
Guys we successfully had our H1B visa stamping done in Vancouver, Canada. First let me start about Vancouver and man what a beautiful place it is. It�s also called Glass City but has its own natural side in which no city can come close.
We flew into Vancouver from Seattle, WA and stayed at Days inn near West Pender St, which we did not like at all. Also take some time for taking pictures inside Vancouver airport. I think they are beautifying the airport for the Winter Olympics in 2010 but the totem poles and some exhibits are worth watching. Taxi ride to the airport is about 30$.
One advantage with Days Inn on West Pender is walking distance to the US embassy. One the visa day we came at 9:00 AM (Tuesday) to the consulate with DS-160 confirmation letter. We uploaded the photos during our electronic submission but better to have additional photos as we have seen many people being sent out as the picture in the application was not clear. The whole process took about 2 Hours and I was back to the hotel room by about 11:30 AM.
After the consulate visit on Tuesday we immediately shifted to Century Plaza Hotel & Spa. We got a good deal for Century Plaza and were surprised at the level of luxury we got.
I was only asked for my H1B approval document. The officer asked questions about our previous work location as he was from the same place. I was told to collect the document on Thursday as Wednesday was a holiday. We booked our tickets for Friday as we thought it would take two days to get our passport back.
The Friday journey meant we had lots of time to visit some amazing places in Vancouver, Canada. We visited Stanley park (must visit), Granville Island (very expensive-not much to do-liked the boat taxi), Canada place (beautiful spot for a great view), Robson street (nice street for shopping), Victoria Island (long travel but a worthy one), Caplilano suspension bridge (Did not find it too surprising), Bushart gardens-Victoria Island (must visit) and Parliament building-Victoria Island (must visit). Heard lot of good reviews about British Columbia history museum but missed it. Public transportation is great in Vancouver but do take enough time if you are planning for it. Also do take two days if you want to cover Victoria Island. The journey (Bus+BCFerry) itself takes half day.
Some of the places I would recommend for food are Banana leaf Malaysian restaurant, India Bistro and Sala Thai.
We were very depressed by the thought of another Visa stamping but Vancouver visit changed the entire episode. Been to Toronto and Ottawa before but nothing like Vancouver.

I have read many threads that discusses the pros and cons of using EAD over H1 and the common benefit that everyone mentions is that the salary is usually better for a person on an EAD. I spoke to several people who've started using their EAD and realized that even though it opened up opportunities with companies that do not have a policy of sponsoring H1, it DID NOT give them a boost in the salary.
My question is how do people intend to leverage on having an EAD for a higher salary?
Thanks!
Yes , as you are the one negotiating the deal (rate) on W2 or PERM with future employer and removing the agency ( your original H1B sponsoring compnay) between you and client, you should able to get better rate/salary. Again all depends on location, your experience and technology you are in.
Good Luck.

I was in a similar situation.. not exaclty the same...
I had an approved I 140 and then I got the Notice of Intent To Deny, similar reason. This is what I did.
- I called my unversity and asked them to send me a detail syallbus of the courses I attended
- A letter from a third part evaluator
- An indetail letter from my HR as to what my courses where and how the courses pertain to my work.
- A detailed letter from the attorney.
looks like you do not have any thing to worry, if you took math courses and your syllabus states that then you should be ok. Make sure that you mention in very much detail and repetedly about the courses you took so that they wont miss it. Good luck I am certian you will be ok.
Just out of curiosity, how can they issue intent to deny to an approved 140?

President Obama recently mentioned plans for holding a White House meeting to discuss proceeding with immigration reform legislation. And now he is keeping that promise by setting June 8th, just three weeks from now, to hold the meeting. According to Politico: "The meeting will be an opportunity to launch a policy conversation that we hope will be able to start a debate that will take place in Congress later in the year," the official, who asked not to be named, said. Asked if the session would be billed as a summit or a forum, like similar meetings on health care...

On Dec 14, 2007, I received an I-140 RFE for "ability to pay the offered wage".
According to the attorney, the RFE was responded to with necessary evidence.
On Apr 07, 2007 I received a I-140 denial notice stating that the RFE reply wasn't received on time. As a result it caused an automatic I-485 denial as well.
Now, I am not sure what my options are. Is it possible to ask USCIS to reconsider the case. Can i appeal?
Please advise.
Thanks
Perhaps you can file I-140 again?

Success Story: Showing a Valid Employer-Employee Relationship (http://shusterman.com/newsletterusimmigrationaugust2010.html#5)
As reported in a previous newsletter, a January 8, 2010 USCIS memo entitled "Determining Employer-Employee Relationship for Adjudication of H-1B Petitions, Including Third-Party Site Placements" has made it more difficult, and sometimes impossible, for IT consulting firms who hire professionals to work at third-party worksites to obtain H-1B status on their behalf.
The stated purpose of the memo by Donald Neufeld, Associate Director of Service Center Operations, is "to provide guidance, in the context of H-1B petitions, on the requirement that the petitioner establish that an employer- employee relationship exists and will continue to exist with the beneficiary throughout the duration of the requested H-1B validity period."
The memo puts particular focus on determining if the employer has demonstrated that it has a "sufficient level of control over the employee." See our H-1B Visa Guide for additional information.
We represent many IT consulting companies, some of which place temporary H-1B workers at client-sites as is common in the industry. In March 2010, we helped one of our corporate clients prepare and file an H-1B extension on behalf of a Senior Systems Administrator who had been working for the same employer since June 2009 in H-1B status authorized by USCIS.
Approximately 3 weeks after the H-1B extension was filed, the USCIS issued a 4-page Request for Evidence (RFE) essentially asking for a laundry list of documents, including Tax Returns of both the petitioner and beneficiary, quarterly wage statements, contracts, photographs of the worksite, etc. to demonstrate that a valid employer-employee relationship existed and would continue to exist for the full duration of the requested H-1B extension of stay. The RFE actually asked for evidence that the employer-employee relationship had existed since the original H-1B approval had been issued (some 9 months before the H-1B extension).
Fortunately, we had forewarned our client of the issues raised by the January 2010 memo and the company was able to provide us with much, if not all, of the requested evidence, including copies of contracts it had in place with the company where the employee was assigned. The contract included language that we brought to the Service's attention stating:
"Contractor shall have sole responsibility to recruit, interview, test, select, hire, manage, train, counsel, discipline, review, evaluate, set pay rates(including the classification of Contractor Personnel as exempt or non-exempt), and terminate the persons who provide the Services hereunder."
and
"On-site Contractor Personnel will be required to acknowledge that they are not employees of CLIENT COMPANY to agree to dispute resolution procedures regarding any dispute they may have concerning their employment by Contractor or concerning their employment status."
We were able to further demonstrate the petitioner's supervision of the employee by showing the hierarchal structure of the organization and evidence that the company had control over the day-to-day activities of the employee through regular service and progress reports.
This case shows the importance of preparing in advance for any possible issues as most RFEs issued by USCIS only allow the petitioner 30 days in which to respond. Because we had anticipated the issues raised in the Neufeld memo, we were able to provide sufficient evidence of the employer-employee relationship to satisfy the USCIS's concerns. This resulted in an H-1B approval notice being issued for our client a short time after our response to the RFE was filed.
In this era of increased scrutiny by the USCIS of most types of petitions, we would not suggest any consulting or staffing agency even consider filing an H- 1B petition if it does not have sufficient evidence of the existence of the employer-employee relationship, including signed contracts between the petitioner and the end-client. It is important to note that in many cases similar to this, the USCIS will only approve the H-1B petition for the duration of the contract between the employer and the end-client.

I would say avoid London totally unless you have to collect any euro lottery money enroute to India. Just kidding. Why travel thru the counties that have so many restrictions?
If you are travelling via London and there is no valid visa on your passport then you need DATV ( Direct airside transit visa ) , it will cost you 83 USD , you can get more info from the below URL.

Hi bouncer,
I just wrote a tutorial on how to call custom states programmatically or via code here: http://www.kirupa.com/blend_silverlight/custom_vsm_pg1.htm (the last two pages will be most helpful for you).
Are you unsure how to call the states, or are you unsure how to detect the direction of mouse movement?
Thanks,
Kirupa
I know how to call the states but not sure about the detection of mouse. I want to call each states on each direction.

Not a good place for GC.....:eek:
There are 40,000 available annually, but the wait is typically between six and nine years. someone should sponsor for you to get a green. If you perform well hope you get a green card soon with the help from your US employer.
