I think it's fairly common. So don't worry about it too much.
"fairly common"? But what does it indicate? And where has the case moved to?

The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), the section of government law that guides immigration, specifically states that any non-immigrant alien visitor to the United States must have a passport that is valid for 6 months beyond the intended period of admission. That is to say that if your program or employment runs until May of 2008 you must have a passport that is valid until at least November of 2008. If the alien visitor is from a country that is in agreement with the United States to automatically assume that the alien's passport is valid for 6 months past the passports expiration. These countries are referred to as 6 month countries. That simply means that if the alien is from for ex. India and the passport date will expire before the end of of program date, officers are allowed to make the I-94 valid until the end of the passport. If the alien is not from a 6 month country the officer can only admit the alien with an admission date on the I-94 with a date that is 6 months before the passport expires. Officers at airports and deferred inspection offices do not have the authority, at a later date, after a new passport has been obtained, to change the original I-94 to the date that would have been given at the original time of entry had the passport been valid for 6 months beyond intended period of entry. The alien must request an extension of stay with an explanation submitted to the USCIS office, no fee is required, and a new I-94 with the appropriate date will be issued. However, if you call USCIS and are fortunate enough to get to speak to someone, that person, an information officer, with 2-5 weeks training, will tell you a CBP Officer can change it. Some officers will change the I-94, however, they have no authority to do so and can face penalties for doing so.

THIS IS INDIA AND INDIANS
LOOK WHERE OUR MONEY IS GOING????
Top Five
1. India ---- $1,456 billion
2. Russia ---$ 470 billion
3. UK -------$390 billion
4. Ukraine - $100 billion
5. China -----$ 96 billion
Shame on the Indians who hoard all that public money in some foreign land and making those countries rich. When would the stupid @#$@# @$%#$ politicians and bureaucrats learn that, when they die (and I hope they all die soon) they could not take it with them to Hell.
We have no guts to fight the terrorism coming from across the border and spent too little on defense, education, sanitation and infrastructure and even today India still looks like the same country that was there before 1947. Nothing significantly changed in terms of literacy or cleanliness or standard of living of majority of individuals.
I still have a hope that one day a daring and honest person would hold the PM office and clean up the mess.

from www.kenrockwell.com (http://www.kenrockwell.com) , hope this will help
There was a problem in the first two of seven D70s I've used. The focus calibration was off by about a tenth of a millimeter. This means that your images will not be focused on your subject, but instead on something somewhat behind your subject. Don't confuse this with the common mistake of having selected the wrong AF area or otherwise pointing the AF sensor to the side of your subject. Nikon of course will adjust this under warranty if it's a problem. With common f/3.5 and slower lenses it's not much of a problem, and at regular shooting apertures of f/8 or so its completely invisible. Some people incorrectly call this the "backfocus" problem.
On the other hand, if you have fast lenses that alone cost more than the complete D70 kit and you shoot them wide open you ought to check your camera. My $1,700 28mm f/1.4 lens (http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/2814af.htm) wide open at f/1.4 was useless on two cameras, but of course OK at normal apertures. You won't see this through the finder. You have to look at the images at 100% on your computer. It's simply the image being focused on something just a little behind where it should have, which is usually invisible if you have enough depth of field, and of course Nikon will stand behind it if it really is a problem. The samples I've used in May 2004 now seem AOK and mine is perfect, even at f/1.4.
Heck, my D70 focused better than any other camera I've owned, even with my f/1.4 lenses.
Testing this is simple. Just go make at least a dozen photos with your lens wide open and look at the results at 100% on your computer. See if the camera really focused where it should have. If you haven't done this kind of test before there's the potential that your technique may be off and not looked for it before, but you get the idea. The only concern here is that you need to have the focus be where you put it.
This miscalibration is the reason some people think their D70 images are soft. They aren't soft; they simply are focused on the wrong thing!
If your camera is out of adjustment, which I only saw on some of the very first samples, of course it's covered under warranty. If you are crazy, like this guy here (http://dvdhelp.narod.ru/D70_back_focus.html) (look out, it's a slow loading page), you can use a nail to mess it up further and void your warranty at the same time. I don't have this much guts; the D70 has a year warranty and I know your camera isn't that old! On the other hand, I respect his innovative spirit and it's this pioneering spirit which makes him an honorary American as far as I'm concerned. Please use a real Allen wrench to make these adjustments, and remember that Nikon will do it correctly for you for free under warranty and probably clean your camera as well at the same time!

Hello,
So yesterday (Saturday) was another surprize, a pleasant one again! I got a call from the same IO who told me that he got all the documents that I had sent and has cleared my case for approval, but now my fingerprints have expired.
He asked if I could come right away to his office and he could give me an instant fingerprinting appointment in the nearby INS office. When I told him that I'm currently out of country on business trip and won't be back in US till April, he said he will send me an appointment near April 15th.
I thanked him for his follow-up and he said he was just doing his job. I know this might be an exception than a rule, but just wanted to acknowledge this particular IO and hope there are more like him.
Just checking....If you are out of country, How could the IO know you number if you are on business trip? :confused:

Seems that senators had only 1 hour to look through the 115 page manager amendment and lot of stuff was sneaked in that would not have passed otherwise... I wonder how it would stand the scrutiny of the conference. I am puzzled as to why they had to sneak-in legal immigration provisions in the last minute.... Is it that controversial ?
Manager's amend. are those amend. which are non-controversial and have been agreed to by majority bi-partisan senators. People who are calling the manager's provision as "sneaky," etc are against any immigration. This is another pretext to beat the dead horse.
It seems that you missed out on the exciting live action in the Senate.
Senate just didn't have time to discuss all the amendments and provision. This issue about who will have how many amendments was a problem issue from the start. After the motion for cloture was filed they had to end the never ending discussion and pass the bill. CIR bill was 641 page bill, addying 115 more pages is roughly 20% more. Also you need to look at the number of amendments not just the number of pages.

What is Ron basing his prediction on... I am not sure the trend says so... Can anyone please share his logic?
Well if you read the post by ron, someone has already asked him, on what basis do you predict the date and he simply has replied like this,
"I'm basing that date on what I've been told by the Visa Office."
May be he is in constant touch with the folks at USCIS and not DOS. But one thing if you notice, this guy (Ron) has been correct in whatever he says in the past......
I am in EB3 but i am happy that things move forward for atleast EB2 folks because we can get as many people as possible out of the queue..... with hopes that one day eb3 would move forward too :(

I never had original or any kind of birth certificate nor have it now , As part of GC application I have provided a certificate issued to me by Indian embassy in 2004 stating birth date, location with passport number as reference. Not sure if any Indian consulate in USA are providing that anymore.
I see lot of posts about birth certificate, I sure thought I would have to go through that process but I was never asked to provide anything more than what I have provided to USCIS. May be the rules are different now or it depends on case to case.
We should not be going through that painful process of chasing people in India to get birth certificate. I strongly feel that Indian embassy should provide it. It could be one of things that would generate some income and add value to the services Indian embassy provide.
Can you please help me with this?...I have already submitted the affidavit copy and now they want it from Registrar office. Has any one got it from registrar office in India? if so, how difficult it is and what is the procedure?
"A photocopy of a birth certificate issued by the Local Registrar if the person named above was born in a city, or
A photocopy of a birth certificate issued by the Additional District Registrar’s office if the person named above was born in a village.
If a birth certificate does not list the names of both mother and father, or the child, secondary evidence must be submitted to establish parentage. Secondary evidence includes, but is not limited to , copies of: medical records, school records, census records, government-issues identity cards, religious records and/or affidavits from at least TWO persons alive at the time of birth. The oldest available evidence that lists the names of both parents should be submitted."
Thank you!

There was a problem in the first two of seven D70s I've used. The focus calibration was off by about a tenth of a millimeter. This means that your images will not be focused on your subject, but instead on something somewhat behind your subject. Don't confuse this with the common mistake of having selected the wrong AF area or otherwise pointing the AF sensor to the side of your subject. Nikon of course will adjust this under warranty if it's a problem. With common f/3.5 and slower lenses it's not much of a problem, and at regular shooting apertures of f/8 or so its completely invisible. Some people incorrectly call this the "backfocus" problem.

Based on one of the core member's request, I did the research and shared the information with IV members, so that when you get the GC, you could make informed decision.
Please be optimistic. You getting GC should not be a question of �if�, it should be a question of �when and how soon�.
REQUEST ::
Please support IV and make it happen soon.

The National Anthem was sung (and thank you Panjak, you brought a tear to my eye) as we are waiting patiently in line.
It was sung as a mark of respect to the country of which we aspire to eventually become citizens of, and that play host to us. Its the same reason we held the American and State flags up high and proud during the walk.
It is a powerful statement
