Thanks for everyone who replied.
What about 485 filing date? Will it be cosidered July 2nd, 2007 or whatever future date I will "interfile"?
Any experience holder?

EAD is specifically authorization to work in the US. So in your situation, the answer is NO, you cannot use EAD for employment outside the USA. To work in another country and keep your green card process going, you will have to change your application from AOS to consular processing.

D. JULY EMPLOYMENT-BASED VISA AVAILABILITY
After consulting with Citizenship and Immigration Services, the Visa Office advises readers that Visa Bulletin #107 (dated June 12) should be relied upon as the current July Visa Bulletin for purposes of determining Employment visa number availability, and that Visa Bulletin #108 (dated July 2) is hereby withdrawn.
Does this mean that we have to file I-485 before August 1st?. From August 1st, the August visa bulletin is effective and all the EB category dates are U.:confused:

There is no posted transcript yet on the Website - how did it go?
As expected, Lou Dobbs was absolutely anti-immigration, while Specter was his usual no-nonsense self. Nothing interesting at all
This is available at http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0603/08/ldt.01.html
DOBBS: It has already declared a state of emergency because of the crisis at the border between Arizona and Mexico as has another Democrat, Governor Bill Richardson of New Mexico.
By our estimates, there are as many as 20 million illegal aliens now in this country. Three million illegal aliens cross the border every year. The U.S. Senate is now considering three different bills on border security and illegal immigration.
All share a common theme, creating so-called guest worker programs. Senator Arlen Specter is the author of one of the bills. He joins us tonight from Capitol Hill. Senator Specter of course the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary committee. Senator, good to have you here.
SEN. ARLEN SPECTER, (R-PA) JUDICIARY CMTE. CHAIRMAN: Thank you for the invitation, Lou.
DOBBS: Senator, you're in markup. How did it go today? Are you near completion?
SPECTER: Well, we are really just getting started. We have scheduled four markups. The leader would like to bring the bill to the floor by March 27th. We're going to try to do that but we're not going to rush it. We're going to take the time we need to go through the issues thoroughly and come to a balanced judgment.
DOBBS: Senator Hillary Clinton today spoke out on U.S. immigration policy. She said Congressman Sensenbrenner's immigration bill, which passed the House as you know, and is now in the House Judiciary Committee, would be, quote, an unworkable scheme to try to deport 11 million people, which you have to have a police state to try to do. How do you react to her comments?
SPECTER: Well, I think we need border security. And the House passed bill goes a long way in that direction and I think that's an important aspect that has to be balanced.
I think when you have 11 million or more undocumented aliens, you have to find a way to bring them out of shadows. At the same time, you do not want to reward people who have broken the laws. So we do not want amnesty program. And my job as chairman is to hear all points of view, to analyze them thoroughly, to discuss them and to see if we can't find a way to bring people out of the shadows, not necessarily put them in line for citizenship, but to try to eliminate having them in a fugitive status.
And if they want to become citizens, to go through the processes which comport with the law.
DOBBS: Senator, when you say in the shadows, this is the language of lot of, frankly, a lot of pro-illegal immigration and open border's advocates, as I think you know.
They're seldom if the shadows as we look at Home Depots, where we see day laborer, aggregating. They make up about 20 percent, by most estimates, of the labor working in construction. They make up just about half, if not more, of all farm labor as you know in this country. We do not know precisely how many people here. Estimates as I reported earlier ranges high as 20 million. You have used a number of 11 million.
How is it that the United States government does not know nor do we have a way, as far as I know in the United States government, the federal government, to come up with a count of how many people we're talking about? And isn't that important as we apply your efforts at coming to compromise and conciliation? SPECTER: Well, it would be very, very helpful, Lou, if we knew precisely how many undocumented aliens, illegal aliens, were in the country if we knew where they were. When you talk about the shadows, if you have a program which says we're going to ferret them out, we're going to arrest them, we're going to deport them all.
Maybe the shadow's is a bad expression. Maybe a better expression would be that would turn them into fugitives. What we want to do is to try to find some way to get our hand on the problem.
We know that they take a lot of jobs where others don't want to take them. At the same time, we are aware of the fact that they depress salaries downward if they weren't available. They would be more compensation. We're juggling a lot of balls at the same time and nobody has tackled this problem for a long time and it's been thrust upon the Judiciary Committee and we're going to try to deal with it.
DOBBS: Well, Senator, we all wish you luck on that and the idea that the president likes to use the expression, willing workers and willing employers. In this case they're illegal employers and they're illegal aliens that are being exploited and it's not certainly the kind of thing I would -- certainly knowing your background, know that you would like to see continue. And I'll just throw in one pitch to you, Senator, if I may.
SPECTER: Sure.
DOBBS: Why don't you punish, punish, punish, illegal employers because they're exploiting people a way that is so un-American and is, frankly, doesn't reflect well on us and for people to defend it is, to me, unspeakable.
SPECTER: As you may know before I became a senator, I was a district attorney, a prosecutor. A big part of my job at that time was to punish them and I think when people violate the law, we ought to bring them into compliance, and a punishment is a part of it. I know how to do that.
DOBBS: Indeed you do. And Mr. Chairman, it's good to have you with us. Senator Arlen Specter.

Yes, most of the states are going to implement it. It is allready existing in P.A. and I know atleast 2 people who's friends picks/drops them to work. It's a shame, living in this country for 6 years and suddenly your DL is snatched away. Getting 3 years H1B extensions in all circumstances is on of our main agenda at iv.org please see our brochure in resources section. This will solve atleast some part of the problem.

vacation or telecommuting for longer duration (not sure about max # of days) is considered as abandoning AOS.
You need not be here in US until the GC is approved. There is no abandoning if he has valid offer and some way of re-entry like valid AP or H1.

I am filing for my EAD renewal and had a quick question...I have an EAD card from when I was in college and did my OPT. The problem though is that I do not have some of the details that they ask for while filing EAD renewal, such as what Center was it processed at & what was the application date.
I have already called USCIS & they cant pull up what center my EAD was filed at or the date it was filed. Can anyone suggest what I should do in this situation? What do I put in the form? Does anyone have similar experiences?

No one can predict at this point of time. The optimism
is thinning every day. So far nobody could come up
with anything that is agreeable.
Our best friend Sen. Sessions is trying his best
to distroy any bill. Now he is trying to propose and
implement a point based system. Who know when
the point base system is ready for discussion he
will propose a DNA based system....
So my friend I'm scared to hope on immi
sector. Good luck to you

Ragz,
I have used a similar copy myself when meeting the staff of Congressman Michael Fitzpatric, with great results. However we were told that we were waiting for the lobby firms to give us their input. My guess was, if they are going to provide some really good insight, then we might as well wait a little and add that b4 meeting the Congressmen/Senators.
If you guys are decided on the presentation, then i can go ahead and book the appointment.
Check your private message too!

I think members have written tons of pages on forums, spent days not hours predicting the actions of USCIS. But we need to understand that nothing and nobody can predict three things.
1. Earthquakes
2. Shooting stars and
3. USCIS
u may be right , Although the bill H.5882 hopes to remove the last item on ur list.

I think H1b will last more month this time than past 3 years. And lawmakers will think its not right time to increase.
I spoke to 1-2 relatives who are having consulting business and they told me they are reducing work force.. ( Not lay off but not interested to hire more and more h1b in this slow economy ) ....

USCIS and DOS played ping pong on us.
USCIS played June Fool.
We are panned.
I told my wife that I will get her EAD in 3 months. Now what I should I say. I am insulted embarassed.
I planned to leave my company in 6 months. Now again I am struck.
I decided to marry a girl just because the dates are current. Now I am struck.
Oh USCIS(GOD)!!, Why did you do this me?
You decided to marry a girl because your PD was current, married her and promised her you would get her an EAD in 3 months...and you did all this in 2 weeks ???
Man! You are fast!

Hi randlesl, welcome to Dphoto! In addition to the above, some cameras are just calibrated to underexpose. My D60 did that consistently. I think I shot everything at +2/3 exposure comp. Some lenses may contribute to that as well. To test that, try taking a shot outdoors in good light using the same target with both lens set to 70mm and f/5.6. If they come out looking alike, all is well. If the 28-80 comes out darker, experiment to see how much extra you need to dial in with that lens to get it looking like the other. Also try a few shots with the 28-80 lens on a tripod, or other sturdy rest. If the images come out sharp, then the blur is like what I get ... operator error. If they are still blurry, then the problem may be with that lens. From what you said, though, and as jliechty suggested, it may be from trying to follow moving targets in low light with a shutter speed that can't freeze the action.
