You missed adding another option in the poll.
Option 3: "This idea is a non-starter, It wont work. "
Why do you care if you had already applied ?
Sorry !! Don't mean to beat the dead horse.

I am not sure what your health insurance situation with your employer is. Here is some thing I know. Please research and see whether this helps.
Under HIPPA regulations, insurance companies cannot decline pregnancy as pre existing condition if you and your spouse are covered by group coverage. Generally, group coverage is the coverage you get from your employer. If you currently do not have health insurance through your employer, try to sneak into the plan now as most employers will have open enrollment period during Jan/Feb of each year. If you try to buy individual coverage from a HMO/PPO, those insurance companies can mercilessly decline maternity coverage.
If you get into group coverage, no matter what trimester your wife is in, insurance companies WILL have to cover the maternity as per the plan choose.
Please investigate and let us know what you find.
Thank you Nixtor,
My employer does not have group insurance. I tried compelling him to take but .....
Then I bought a individual insurance for my self, wife and kid (in Texas)
And insurance companies in Texas are not providing maternity insurance for individual insurances (not violating HIPPA rules) and very recently came to know that my insurance covers the compilications of maternity(not really sure, need for confirm with some one or would try to call my insurance company for more details) and for new born child as per Texas law. But not the regular maternity. Which is the reason I am trying to buy a plan from Hospital for Maternity.
And about your last point, I am trying to find out if I can get into any group. currently used AC21 with H1 and my employer does not have group insurance.
My client (big one) is ready to give me full time but not the title that I want and they are not ready to do H1 (with AC21) but agreed with EAD
Even prime vendor is ready to give full time with EAD with the title that I want and client is ok with that.
The only problem is if I leave my current employer and go to prime vendor, then it would be a problem, else find a different employer do a different H1 and ask the vendor to transfer (but not sure if this would create complications unless my current employer is OK with it).
Need your input on these!
But let me know if you know any one who bought Materinity plan from Hospital in Texas (Dallas)
Thanks for your response!

2010 Love Poems For Valentines Day
I'm sorry to hear this...Its happened...
if you really wanna bring your employer to lime light..prepare yourself..first....Remember..its your life here...anyone[including me) can give free suggestion here ....
There is no use working with this kind of Employer anymore...so my advice is switch to another employer[Good One] before you react to this...Make sure you pretend as if you are not aware of this and get the best out of him before you leave...once you r done...then show who is he to the outside world...
I'm sure you be having atleast mail proof...[If not ditch the plan of suing and move on with your next opportunity]....take some time and prepare all the possible proof...hire a good lawyer....File a case against the attorney in the local law chamber where the attorney is practising....they will definely call you to settle the case...make sure you record it as the proof[if you don't have one already ::)].....
Then hit the employer...make sure you ask a collosal sum through your attorney[Never give chances]....and then post his name and details in the Immigration blogs....
You lost one of the major milestone in your life...never give up this time....
Best of luck

I am getting confused here about digital photo and USCIS not accepting them. I am assuming that "digital photo" just means pictures taken from a digital camera and printed out, which is what most of the studios do anyways, so why would USCIS have any problem with it. Is there a difference in pictures taken from a digital camera vs poloroid camera? If anything, digital camera most likey will have far better picture quality than poloroid camera so what's the deal with "digital photo" being unacceptable. Or do you guys mean a photo on a floppy of something when you say digital photo.
Check the photo guidelines from USCIS website here is blurb
"For U.S. passport and visa photographs, a digital camera with a resolution of 1 mega-pixel will be more than adequate for capturing the image and producing the final photo that conforms to the dimensions specified on this web site.
and the link is
http://travel.state.gov/passport/guide/digital/digital_880.html
digital photos are OK if printed prpoerly.

I have noticed soft LUD's on all receipts including I140, H1B with all other receipts (485, EAD and AP) for my self and my spouse after using AC21 with H1B transfer.
Not received FP yet and did not call Service center for it.
Any clues? or any experienced the same.
Shana,
Nice to know that you started the process. Did you send the job transfer letter to USCIS along with H1B transfer or you just did H1b transfer (with plan to send the letter later).
In a way it�s nice that USCIS is tracking all applications together (H1B transfer, I140, I485 for a candidate). It atleast gives the confidence that they are tracking all together and may not get any RFE�s to give them copy of I140 or such.
Please share any updates.

Well USCIS withdrew the Q&A they posted on their website for revision.
I hope they don't plan to screw the remaining name-check sufferers again.
They have been approving some of them in the past few days (and neither according to PD or RD, basically no FIFO, just based on officers whims)
See the withdrawal notice on AILA website

U.S. Proposes Rise in Immigration Fees (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/01/30/AR2007013001762.html).
By SUZANNE GAMBOA
The Associated Press
Wednesday, January 31, 2007; 2:47 AM
WASHINGTON -- Becoming an American citizen could soon cost almost twice as much.
The Bush administration will propose nearly doubling the fee charged applicants for U.S. citizenship and significantly increasing fees for other immigration benefits, congressional and administration officials said Tuesday.
Fees for a wide variety of immigration services would rise an average of 66 percent, said two government officials who did not want to be named in advance of the administration's formal announcement of the proposal Wednesday.
The current fee of $330 to apply for citizenship would rise to slightly less than $600, an administration official said. Other fee increases are possible for green cards conveying legal residency, which now cost $325.
Applicants also now pay a $70 fingerprinting fee in each case. Fees also are paid for things such as work permits, replacing lost green cards and petitions to adopt orphans from other countries.
The proposed fee increases would not be final until after a public comment period.
Congressional Democrats last week warned in a letter to Emilio Gonzalez, director of the Homeland Security Department's Citizenship and Immigration Services, that they planned to review the agency's analyses behind any proposed immigration fee increases.
The letter was signed by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., immigration subcommittee chairman Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers, D-Mich., and immigration subcommittee chairwoman Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif.
Immigration advocates have been bracing for the expected jump in fees. William Ramos, Washington director for the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials, said the increases are "just going to be devastating to our communities."
"It will basically create another obstacle for those who want to realize their dream of becoming American citizens," Ramos said.
Citizenship and Immigration Services covers its costs with application fees. The agency is required to do a fee analysis every two years to determine whether money raised from fees is covering costs. The agency last raised its fees in 2004, citing the cost of more intense background checks in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
Immigrant advocates long have argued that the agency's costs cannot be absorbed by application fees. They want Congress to appropriate money to help pay costs.
Large fee increases would be heavily felt in the Asian community, where two-thirds of the population in the U.S. is foreign-born, said Traci Hong, director of the immigration program for the Asian American Justice Center.
About 70 percent of foreign-born Asians in the country become American citizens, a high rate for immigrants. Hong worried that higher naturalization fees would slow that rate.
Also I heard a rumor that they are going to allow filing of i-485 for review first and then let you wait for the visa number. Hope it is true!

tattoo valentines day poems for him.
This is by far THE MOST RIDICULOUS suggestion on this forum I have come across.
Sorry man, this wont work for ANYONE out here. We have been waiting since TWO AND A HALF Years to file and now you want us to wait for 15 more days only to realize that USCIS may actually yank the rug out under us. I mean think about it, we will all feel like MONUMENTAL FOOLS if that happens. Try explaining THAT to your spouse who has been waiting for 2 years or more to apply and get an EAD. I know mine would KILL me if i even suggested that to her ;)
Most of us are concerned about short term goal of getting the application to uscis as quickly as possible , but think of the end result of whether your application be accepted if we rush, the uscis can come back and reject at any time from any date as it happened to Eb3-other workers. In any case there is a very good chance that your wife will kill u ;)

Guys,
This is really a great news for all of us. I have one question to some of experts on this forum.
I had my H1 which expired in last month. As a result I converted my status to H4.
With this new relief rule,
Can I just change my status from H4 to H1 thru same employer or I will have to apply for new H1 on Apr 1, 2007 and my work starting date will be Oct 1, 2007?
Thanks,

Is there any updates on full committee hearing ,which was scheduled for hearing on 23rd June ?
Grow tomatoes in your lawn and sell it to neighbours. Even if you do this for one day, as per law you made some money other than your H1b intended for. You are AN ILLEGALLLL....
If you dont have a lawn / garden, then go to walmart buy something and sell it for a dollar more to your fellow H1b. Let him do the same for you and you both declare that you did some side business and made a dollar. YOU BOTH ARE ILLEGAL. HEyyyyyy you qualify for Z
:) We should find out a way to convince them we worked illegally for cash before Jan 1, 2007. Some one suggested before if we can find another H1B provide an affidavit that he/she did some lawn work at the house both of them will become eligible for the mighty 'Z' visa :D
