All I can say is for J1 physician is different then regular J1 visa. If you are J1 physician you have to serve 3 years in an underserved area on H1b visa and then and then you can get your GC. If you file NIW for physician you can apply for I-140 and I-485 but you will get GC after 5 yrs of service in an underserved area.

You can use extension tubes for all lenses on either Nikon or Canon cameras (obviously, on a Canon, they need to have Canon mount, and on a Nikon thye need to be Nikon mount).
Canon (and/or Nikon) may be using some special conversion signalling in the extension tube to inform the camera of the extension tubes existance. The teleconverters from Canon does this, whilst some other teleconverters of non-Canon brand do not. However, I think the extension tubes are much simpler animals, so they're probably just straight through connection of wires.
On Nikon, really old lenses are able to work with modern cameras, but some of the automatic functions aren't able to work (obvious things like the autofocus doesn't work on non-AF lenses, and you may not be able to use automatic aperture settings, which also may mean that the camera doesn't know the aperture and can't do automatic time selection either... How much functionality is lost depends on the age of the lens).
Canon on the other hand made a "big changeover", where they obsoleted the old mount and made a complete new, incompatible one when they introduced autofocus some 20 or so years ago.

Similar lines ask the white house program. many people in the forum sent Q's to USCIS director and he didnt chose even one Q about retrogression or labor situation etc..

assuming you don't have all your I-94s and I797s,
having W-2s/paystubs for all the years is enough to prove that you have always been in status?
Please do not make assumptions and post message like this. People come here for information. For these kinda questions, add some meaningful title, You know what I am talking about.

Please find answers to your question here. I forgot the actual pages from USCIS red book but a simple logic states that 485 background screening is atrociously longer than the one done after filing for H1B application. That means they are different (or ought to be).
Am I understanding this right ?
FOR H1/L1 They do a FBI background check
FOR I-485/CP They do a Name Check
Regarding long names, longer the better as told by my lawyer! I think they do a series of checks with: common variants, substring matches, binomial match etc. Hence (assuming you are from India) if you are (for eg.) Randy Kumar or Randy Krishnamurthysarma, you can take a guess which combination would be less common..
This is intended in a not-so-serious sense as I dont have any insight or inside view of FBI functionings...
Please someone clarify, I do have a loooong name just wanted to know what I am getting into here.

I applied for my 485 in August and then applied for my H1B extension in november. Obviously your lawyer is incompetent.

If you applied for labor through PERM and have a copy of you PERM application, the DOL o*net code is listed in section F. Box 2. of the ETA 9089 form. This code can then be looked up at the o*net web site: http://online.onetcenter.org/find/
Do you know how to find this DOL o*net code for non-PERM cases?

Now as mentioned by multiple people some things are not clear
Here is my situation:
a. H1 Expires Dec 31 2008
b. Perm applied 02/2008 and approved 04/2008
c. I-140 applied and pending since May 2008
As you can see i have a gap of over 2 months between H1 expiry and 7th yr extn.
Given the scenario above should i wait until Nov 1 to apply PPS for I-140 and then apply for H1 extn??
given the time taken for H1 extensions (regular) my employer may want to apply for H1 extension atleast 3-4 months prior to expiry.
Any thoughts...

Waiting for 180 days is hard....but its even harder for folks like me, who are waiting for 140 approval..The way things are, looks like it sgonna take much longer than 180 days for 140 approval...Only then I can even think of using AC21....But no complaints...Patience pays...:)
You are not as bad as you think. Read USCIS guidance on the subject. If your I-140 is not approved by 180 days, you can still use AC21. In that case, the adjudicator while looking at your I-485, sees if filed I-140 was approvable. If so, you are good to go, provided you can prove that you have a new same/similar job offer.
For USCIS guidance see Page 3, Q1 at: http://www.ilw.com/immigdaily/news/2005,0520-ac21.pdf

If you have not yet received any RFE, you are a lucky person and your I-485 application has been filed perfectly. As per USCIS announcements, they have almost completed (99.99%) review of all pending AOS cases and pre-adjudicated most of them. I will presume that your case has been pre-adjudicated and all set to go Green whenever visa number is available.
One way to find out whether your case been pre-adjudicated is to call USCIS thro POJ method and talk to a IO (not customer service person) and they will be able to tell you.
Thanks for reply, if you don't mind, do you have the USCISs' announcement link about this pre-adjudication ? Does it say those who pre-adjudicated will not get any future RFE/Denials ?

Thanks Fide Champ.
Both the employer and the Attorney are tight lipped on my first I-140. Is there a way to take help of some other Attorney and ask them to get the details regarding my first I-140?
