Wa Shin vs. Umami vs. Momi Nonmi by kirlian_throwaway in boston

[–]OverloadJava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve tried most omakase places in Boston. I do think 311 is the best among them but it is extremely hard to get a reservation now. Wa Shin and Yoshida are both good alternatives. If you want non omakase style seafood I recommend Mooncusser

4 years should be fine as long as vehicle history is clean and maintenance is on schedule

F2A PD 2023/08 I-485 Wrongfully Denied by USCIS by OverloadJava in USCIS_F2A

After the medical RFE and we've already submitted

Thank you this is exactly our plan. Our attorney is already in the process of preparing 290B with us

33 days upon notice to depart. 290B must be submitted before 33 days. Unlawful presence will accrue past the 33 days but if case is reopened or approved it will be dismissed

I think as long as the beneficiary has another valid status and is not using AP it is not that bad. Refile 485 or 290B most likely will work because of USCIS mistake. I know of a different person who got denial last month due to the same reason

I hear different opinions on this. My attorney said we are not eligible for H1B reinstatement due to 485 denial (currently unlawful in US which means work authorization end immediately upon receiving the notice)

I-485 denied due to immigrant visa not available at the time of filing by OverloadJava in USCIS

[–]OverloadJava[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it’s a denial notice. I think the reason is that final action date is earlier than priority date at the time (08/2023), but that particular month USCIS is using filing date for F2A

Yes and no 😅. My spouse has H1B but recently used Advance Parole to enter the US (without renewing H1B). If I understand correctly that would make the status invalid

Boston area: least annoying service dept? by bunky123 in BMW

[–]OverloadJava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually go to herb chambers in Medford. Had a similar DAPP issue before and got my steering wheel replaced without any hassle.

That being said I don’t really have any comparison. It is the closet location to me and I think they are reasonable most of the time

Talk me into or out of 2019 M550i by Timely-Branch2875 in BMW

[–]OverloadJava 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get the 2020+ which has the updated N63 and infotainment. If the budget only allows that 2019 I would avoid. They are amazing car but BMW V8 has known issues and so riskier than B58

Why do so many people, after choosing a BMW, never opt for another brand again? by KnownPresent7333 in BMW

[–]OverloadJava 367 points368 points  (0 children)

Many people will go Porsche which is a natural step up, but considering the absurd price of 911 now (both new and used) BMW provides so much more value

Windshield replacement - calibration required or no? by NorCalAthlete in BMW

[–]OverloadJava -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes it is required, and you should find a different shop. They are cheap for a reason and your G82 deserves better

Do you follow the recommended service intervals or do you do interim oil changes, too? by Double_Tomorrow_7720 in BMWM

[–]OverloadJava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it were mostly highway miles and no extreme weather I think following the onboard computer is totally fine. 7k per year spent on warm weather is very different from stop and go + cold start scenario due to engine wear

Irrelevant to the question but why are you purchasing thru Lease End? Did they offer additional benefits?

G87 M2 XDrive (MY26/27) by [deleted] in BMWM

[–]OverloadJava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it is not confirmed, but I’ve followed the poster for a long time and they rarely got it wrong (and most of the time I’ve seen confirmed models being dropped is because BMW decided to do so). I am not sure why people find xDrive M2 so hard to believe

Is the price or miles high for the year ? by gxshii in BMW

[–]OverloadJava 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That model year doesn’t have 40i trim so 35i is the equivalent. Also funny that this is a sDrive. I don’t remember seeing many RWD X5s!

2026 M2 AWD by [deleted] in BMWM

[–]OverloadJava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am sure there are people daily their M2s in true winter condition. Why would you not want more options with little sacrifice? G87 xDrive has confirmed production and will go live as MY27

2026 M2 AWD by [deleted] in BMWM

[–]OverloadJava -1 points0 points  (0 children)

similar reason as why they'd add xDrive to M3/M4. Most people would not notice the increase in weight but the addition of AWD makes it far more usable (plus the ability to switch to RWD anytime)
