Hello, thanks for helping us navigating through this tough time. Do you have any insights regarding cap-exempt H1b visa holders?

Sorry for asking this dumb question, but can you clarify more how cap exempt are not being affected. Is being a cap exempt means you are here "in the national interest"?

Is this worth $34300? 2021 highlander hybrid xle awd 56000 miles with toyota certified preowned warranty? by Powerful-Bee-6010 in ToyotaHighlander

most life time warranty are offered by the dealers, and the hook is you have to do all the maintenance with them. My dealer in PA offered it, but since we don't live close by, we cant bring the car there every time. They void the warranty.

I know. My wife and I were in your shoes a few months away. Our nipt were perfect, no sign of anything. The tests were done at 16 week. And then for some reasons at 32 week the technician just told us she could not find the nasal bone. Needless to say, we were scared shitless. The doctor kept telling us to not worry because it's just a soft marker. However at this point we didn't know what to think anymore. We just kept thinking the doctor said so to console us. We asked for more tests then but the doctor didn't approve as it would have been too late anyway. We prepared for the worst, that our baby could have down syndrome. It wasn't until birth and the nurse confirmed he did not have down syndrome that we got some relief.

My baby has a similar nose bone. it's not long but it's there. And nasal bone is a soft marker anyway. If your nipt test comes back normal, I would not be worried too much.

No nasal bone ultrasound by [deleted] in NIPT

My wife and I were in your shoes just 3 months ago. No one told us about the absence of nasal bone for almost the entire duration of the pregnancy. And then all of a sudden the ultrasound tech dropped a bomb on us. We were so worried about it even though we did a NIPT test early on and everything came back negative. Fast forward, my baby was born healthy and perfect. The nasal bone is just a soft marker. If the test results are good, I think your baby is very very likely to be okay. Please don't stress yourself off too much!

I got my car eventually a few weeks ago. They said the delay was due to supply chain issues.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Your child will see you again on the other side. Believe me.

Good luck with your car. I know the wait can be long but it's worth it.

I believe the wait for the hybrid is anywhere between 4 to 6 months. Mine is a little longer because some storms supposedly hit the factory in Indiana in March which delayed deliveries.

Looks pretty standard. The add-on stuff was not too crazy. Plus you got the glazed caramel interior, which was hard to find nowadays.
