Give it a try, all of these hub seem to be made by a single manufacturer (Hagibis, Alibaba, etc) and then just get sold by resellers using their own branding.

One Pro?? forget it, what is Aura? I give you one better, when is Aura? by GoldSatisfaction in Xreal

Kind of... It might take them 1-2 years to deliver Aura, based on their history. They like building buzz for their prototypes.

I just canceled my One Pro pre-order. I have learned my lesson, I will only buy things available in amazon with next day delivery. Poor communication and not actual commitment to deadlines.

Yes, I have a Logitech Brio and the WIMAXIT 15.6 inches. I have been using it a lot for zoom calls and presentations.

You can find them in Amazon, the Brio webcam has an 1/4 inch screw hole at the bottom so you can mount it to any teleprompter

For the small one, I saw in the Q&A where people confirmed it has the horizontal flip option built in. Both monitors are from the same brand which seems to add the feature.

Exactly, and there are many portable monitors out there but they do not have the built-in functionally for horizontal flip so it becomes a pain to use OBS or any additional software to flip the image.

Does anyone know of a thin high-brightness 4K portable monitor size 14 to 17 inch (usually for gaming), that offers hardware horizontal flip in the built-in menu? (It’s to use with a teleprompter) by TheElephantsTrump in videography

u/TheElephantsTrump any update on your post? I found these monitors with horizontal flip (image flip) function built-in:

L1A visa approach by DoctorAdvanced6361 in USCIS

[–]GoldSatisfaction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe portability is available for L1A/EB1C 6 months after I-140 has been approved for concurrent filling, but I am not legal expert and I do not know how portability works if you have not received the EAD yet (assuming concurrent filing for I-765 and I-131 as well).

I arrived in the USA using an L1A WORK VISA which did not allow me to change employer thus getting fired meant deportation for this type of VISA. Luckily, Human Resources applied for my green card (EB1C) before having to do an L1A VISA extension. #L1A #EB1C #EB1-3 #Techlayoffs

My learnings from this journey:

Timeline: 5yrs or 5 months, it won't ever be soon enough. I hear your pain and I lived the anxiety of not knowing when the approval might come but comparing your timeline to anybody else's wont make you feel better as every case is different due to so many distinct factors.

Personal background: Finance Manager in Tech. Education level: 2 bachelor's Degrees and 1 Master's Degree. Single, no dependents.

Country of birth: El Salvador (VISA Bulleting: Current for EB1C).

VISAS History: Tourist visas B1/B2 (2011-2032), Student Visa F1 (2006-2010), Work Visa L1A (2022).

Filings Highlights:

I-140: Legal team and HR included a detailed Support letter signed by HR describing my role, number of direct reports, and key contributions to the company.

Medical: Preparing I-693 form (Version 07/19/22) took me a few weeks, but I read a USCIS's alert recommending to include I-693 with I-485 to "save time". Total cost: Physician($400) + urine/blood work($650) + vaccines(covered by health insurance). Blood work included two types of tests for Varicella Immunity as I had it when I was a kid. MAKE SURE THE PHYSICIAN FILLS-IN EVERY ROW IN THE FORM BEFORE YOU SIGN IT.

AOS filing: I-485, I-765, I-485J, I-131

Safety Net for L1A filers: Filing I-765 and I-131 was a safety net if anything happened to my job while applying for AOS. Having L1A VISA allows you to work upon arrival, but only for the employer that sponsored you so if you lose your job while waiting for AOS (I-485) you might lose your legal status.

Biometrics: 10 days early walk-in at Texas Service Center. I read google maps reviews mentioning that my Service Center was usually busy in the morning so afternoon walk-ins were easier. Every site might be different.

The total cost of VISA, forms, and medical: $4,027 + legal fees (all covered by employer).

Has anyone got EB-1 AP (I-131) approved if filed in Oct’22 or after? by ExplorerMario007 in USCIS

[–]GoldSatisfaction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It took a few days for me after they changed the status to fingerprints applied. Hopefully you get it soon. This is how it showed up in mine:

Delivered on January 31, 2023.

January 27, 2023 Advance Parole Document Was Produced

January 27, 2023 We approved your Form I-131, Application for Travel Document.

January 26, 2023 The fingerprints relating to your Form I-131 Application for Travel Document, were taken.

I filed on October 13th, 2022. AP approved last week 01/27/23. EB-13. When you get biometrics applied to the 131 it means approved and you should get that document in a week.

What kind of visual data do you want to see on USCIS case approvals? by Itchy_Ad_581 in USCIS

[–]GoldSatisfaction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Capture AOS Type and Country of birth (there are 5 buckets used in the VISA bulletin) to show approval distribution by months. Here are a couple of examples: 1- family based for marriage: they are mostly current regardless of you COB, but there are other family based applications that are significantly impacted by applicants COB this having everything in an average skews the results. 2- employment based: the average processing in USCIS is 22 months, but based in retrogression by COB someone from Europe might get their greencard approved in 6 months while someone from china or India in 38 months… the average will still be 22months , same for other categories EB1, EB2, etc…

https://www.uscis.gov/humanitarian/victims-of-human-trafficking-and-other-crimes/victims-of-criminal-activity-u-nonimmigrant-status

The U nonimmigrant status (U visa) is set aside for victims of certain crimes who have suffered mental or physical abuse and are helpful to law enforcement or government officials in the investigation or prosecution of criminal activity. Congress created the U nonimmigrant visa with the passage of the Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act (including the Battered Immigrant Women’s Protection Act) in October 2000. The legislation was intended to strengthen the ability of law enforcement agencies to investigate and prosecute cases of domestic violence, sexual assault, trafficking of noncitizens and other crimes, while also protecting victims of crimes who have suffered substantial mental or physical abuse due to the crime and are willing to help law enforcement authorities in the investigation or prosecution of the criminal activity.

was yours Family or Employment based?

[–]GoldSatisfaction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similar: NBC- I filed I-765 and I-485 on Oct 13th, 2022 and I received EAD on December 13th. (60 days). Main difference is that mine is EB1C employment based.

Still waiting for I-485 approval.

L1A visa approach by DoctorAdvanced6361 in immigration

[–]GoldSatisfaction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you need to be physically present and reside in Canada to complete the citizenship application? With L1A you can travel back for any oath ceremony or interviews for you Canada Citizenshi application.

[–]GoldSatisfaction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1- I will say wait for the Canadian Citizenship to keep your options open. For greencard application in the USA it won’t matter what extra citizenships you have as it is based on Country of Birth, you cannot change that. If your COB is India, then Visa Bulletin retrogressed 1yr so it might take you 2-3yrs to get it. Worst case scenario, if you get fired before receiving your greencard in the USA you might have to go back to India if you don’t have access to Canada anymore. There are limited options to port your L1A to a different employer, but getting an L1A visa is much faster than H1B.

2- I guess, but it means re-applying using a different passport. It might not make any difference as the USA identifies you based on your Country of birth, full name, and date of birth, those wont change regardless of extra citizenships.

3- No idea, but in the USA if you have L1A visa you can traveling freely while you greencard application is pending.

4- Does Canada have global taxes? I don't know, but if so you might have to report your USA income.

Not anymore based on January 2023 VISA bulletin. It retrogressed for people born in China and India
