I just called the USCIS National Customer Service Center at 1-800-375-5283 to get clarification.
The representative I talked to checked with her supervisor, and her response was the following:
- The OMB number at the top is something related to the medical board and has nothing to do with the USCIS. The expiry date is irrelevant to the USCIS. The USCIS only cares about the revision date at the bottom (09/16/05).
In other words, the form that is currently on the USCIS web site is acceptable now and in the future (past 6/30/07) until whenever the USCIS changes which revision of the I-693 will be considered acceptable.
Thank you to everyone for their quick responses!

It needs action - not talk.
The system created by DoS and USCIS is highly unfavorable for EB3 people.
DoS is not giving enough visa numbers to EB3 - the category is "U" for now.
USCIS is very lame in processing 140 of EB3.
Many a times employer create a position that requires just Bachelor's degree, BUT a Bachelor's person can't really do that job. Eventually a Master's person (or B.S. + 5 yr experience) fills that up, not knowing that he will be shoved in EB3. In fact most EB3 people in queue today are like this...on top of that, DoS/USCIS has lumped lot of different kind of workers in EB3 - who should be in different category (probably EB4). Overall, very unfair situation for EB3 people.
We all (no matter whether EB1/EB2/EB3) need to support IV to get unused visa numbers recaptured. This will help all EB categories. Without visa recapturing EB3 especially is doomed.

Nothing looks natural to me anymore
Yes, the colors, contrast and clarity that is possible - and more or less expected - is getting unreal indeed. It gets in the way of the content of the picture sometimes, too much nit-picking over Photoshop stuff...
One other suggestion! YOu may want to build a "bird mask" using the select color tool. and then apply that above the NI'd image.
This will some of the noise in the bird but will add detail in the bird. The select color range tool will give a semi transparent selection so it will kind of give you the best of both worlds than a straight select tool.
Also you could use Q and do a qick mask then use a semi transparent brush to select the bird to do the same things as color range select.
Scott
Thanks Scott! Do I understand correctly that you mean I could blend in an "unfiltered bird" over the "NeatImaged" one?

Friends,
As I had indicated that I had admission to study for MBA in europe starting Sep/Oct 2007, looks like I have to drop it due to the GC process ( entangled)
My last discussion wirh Immi and employer drove the nail in the coffin.
I would appreciate any suggestion fromfolks like you.
Outcome:
I can quit the job and proceed for MBA at my risk ( leave spouse behind in the US in I-485 pending stage). If for example my PD ( July 2002 EB3 india) comes up during my absence in the US and if there is a RFE, my current employer WILL NOT provide a job offer so far into the future ( ie post Sep 2008). the least they said they can do is not pull labor and I-140 ( both approved and I-485 pending for 4 yrs)
Since I am in the Mechanical egnineering field , i dont know who to find , ( unlike adundant software body shoppers present) who will draft an offer in case of RFE.
I have few more weeks before I see this opportunity slip by.
Can anyone guess if the EB3- India PD will move to July 2002 or beyond before September 2008?
Any suggestion./directions will be appreciated... Around me i have no one who has even changed jobs , used AC21 etc.
Thanks for your time
--------
Let me guess, remember this is just PURE GUESS.
I think it is unlikely that Eb3 date will reach July 2002 in next 1.5 years, if you see how long it was stuck in April 2001, I can expect the progress to be very very slow.
If there is a CIR or some kind of relief then yes it can reach that far.

Thank you for your reply.
My perm was approved on August 27th 2007. The EB3 became current upto August 17th 2007. Besides, my lawyer got late in preparing the paper work for the PERM etc. and that's why we just missed.
With regard to my situation, does this meanI have to file for my PERM and I-140 all over again?
Also, is it possible under an H-1 for an employer to cut down wages and reduce work hours?
Thank you for your time once again.
Sincerely
Omi

i was reading http://www.immigration-law.com/Canada.html just now,
and I know that each year only 140000 green card is allocated for EB category.
I have several question regarding this number/quota:
1. Does that number (140000) include the spouse/all dependents of applicant ? or just the main applicant ?
2. I keep hearing of this 7% cap for each country, what does that mean ?
does that mean each country only have maximum of 9800 (7% * 140000) green card each year ?? or is it depend on the number of citizen of the country (for example citizen in India is bigger than Japan, so India will get bigger quota)
thanks in advance :D
1) Yes, 140K includes primary applicant,spouse and minor children.
2)It means India or any other country can be alloted upto 9800 green card per Fiscal Year, again this number includes spouse and children.

Hello everyone. Sorry if this is the wrong section.
My mother has trouble with her knees and it is hard for her to do things around the house sometimes, and it is getting worse. She would like a live-in person to make things a little easier on bad days. She just needs someone that can help with or do everyday household chores, but does not require professional health care support.
She has a friend in the philippines doing christian outreach work. The friend introduced her to a nice lady willing and able to come assist mom, and they chat often and have become friends. My mother would like to bring her to the USA to help around the house, and maybe enroll her in school since constant care is certainly not needed. (There are several good colleges closeby)
I have tried researching it for her, but am now honestly confused. As far as I could make out, mom would need to get the lady here on H-2B....but i could be wrong.
Can someone give us some advice please?
Oh, one other thing. The condition of mom's knees are still up in the air with the docs. It is unknown whether surgery will be required, or how long healing might take...if it occurs at all. I don't think she can get the lady an indefinite stay, but I think she can come here and the lenght of stay be adjusted if needed.
Thanks for any advice or help you can offer. I hope to be able to get a 1-2-3 condensed version. My eyes are bleeding from reading rules and regs

no, the thing is that if you want the text to look good, you're gonna have to draw it yourself. or get some pixel fonts. or use verdana 9pt, and don't forget to alias the text.

Folks,
If I contact a Senator and they probe TSC for status, will my lawyer or the firm come to know I initiated this?
Any ideas.?
Thanks.
Now that our PD dates will be current for more than 30 days (based on next months visa bulletin), can we use Odbumsman 7001 form
Or Can we expidetite the process, as when ever we call IO they give this BS explination saying that we can only expedite if your dates are current for more than 30 days and your file is still pending.

Thanks for the response raysaikat... the above information is definitely very helpful for me.
As i understand from your response i will not be subject to cap again if i plan to move from company B (cap-exempt) to company C(non-cap-exempt) as i was already counted once under cap.
If you do that within 6 years from the first time you went into H1-B status (i.e., from the time your H1-B clock started ticking), then yes.
However i also want to know when i plan to move from B to C in future, Although C will file a new H1-B petition, can this petition be filed any time during the year?
If you do that within 6 years from the first time you went into H1-B status (i.e., from the time your H1-B clock started ticking), then yes -- the employer can file the petition anytime of the year.
And if approved can i start to work immediately without a gap?
Please advise.
Thanks Yes. Actually you would be able to start working as soon as the employer got acknowledgement of receipt from USCIS --- you would not have to wait for the actual approval as you were already on H1-B.
