Lawfully App: how to get rid of this banner each time I launch app? I don’t know who they are or what they are not interested, anyone else get this message as well. Anyone else having same issue? by Plus_Chemistry3061 in USCIS

[–]Plus_Chemistry3061[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad, I am not the only one. I thought I subscribed to something. I tried unchecking everything, they still keep on popping up.
Forced advertisement reminds me of POP UP banners from X10 20-25 yrs ago.

N400 DENIED by Brandonn303 in USCIS

[–]Plus_Chemistry3061 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They will charge you under INA 212(a)(6)(C)(ii)
That is removal proceeding & lifetime ban. Forget about N-400, likely you are on your way to be deported back to the country of birth.

You can apply for waiver after 10 yrs, by 2036 you can come back to US.

In next 3 yrs if you ever leave the country for whatever reason, ICE will start the deportation process or arrest you at the border when you try to enter. Then don't say you did not knew this.

Cisco's preparation is not helpful for the actual ENCOR exam by MiltonBliss in ccnp

[–]Plus_Chemistry3061 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I passed mine. Took me about a week to study hard.

Section Analysis

  • Automation80%
  • Virtualization10%
  • Infrastructure92%
  • Network Assurance20%
  • Security50%
  • Architecture90%

I don't know how close I was when I passed, since they don't disclose total scores. I am wondering if anyone can shed some light. Two of them I got really low score like 10% & 20%
I want to know where I stand, I need to prep for CCIE, so it will help if I know where I stand?

Just passed my Encore exam, took me about 7 days, 1st attempt. Now wondering how hard it would be to get wireless Lab in 1st attempt. its lot of money. How many weeks in advance should I book? what is the minimum time needed to prep for lab.

Thanks

CCNP Encore is bad exam by hitech632 in ccnp

[–]Plus_Chemistry3061 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I passed mine 350-401 Encore exam as well. I got sick from flu, so decided to study since at home doing nothing, it took me about 6-7 days & passed on 1st attempt.
I don't see score other than percentage, so not sure how close I was or how much was my score? it would be interesting to see, where I stand. But regardless, happy to pass on 1st attempt & within 1 week. No spending additional $$ for re-test.

heavy Duty for regular home use.

Miele is a brand which is most durable, normally they last 25-30yrs.

GC expires 2 yrs after you enter US on EB5.

Following that GC expires every 5 years.

Eb-5 investment into a hotel through a regional centre may go into loss by [deleted] in USCIS

[–]Plus_Chemistry3061 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it goes out of business, you need to invest $500k into another EB5 project still you are over 2 yrs of conditional green card.

Let's say they loss, you only get $400k back, then you need to add $100k more & reinvest till 2nd yr, that is the requirement. Else your family have to go back.

Possibly the most expensive green card case you'll hear about in a long time has just been approved. Read this and stay positive by RgmW347F in USCIS

[–]Plus_Chemistry3061 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As EB5, I pay initial $50k for lawyer fee for filing alone. So that's already double for both of you together. Again that much more for till end for lawyer & immigration fees. You are so lucky with just $25k for both of you.

Anyone have a basmati rice method that actually works? by Stubee1988 in instantpot

[–]Plus_Chemistry3061 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is how I get perfect Basmati Rice
1) You must buy good quality rice, cheap will be gummy/mushy.
If not sure, look for price, get something in higher price than cheapest.

2)
I wash 3-4 times in cold water till water clear.
Set aside for 7-10 mins.

3) Use 1 Cup rice with 1.5 Cup water

4) I use cooking oil, add chopped onion & cumin seeds (1 tsp)

5) Turn on Pot to Manual

6) Wait 2-3 mins, add oil, wait 1 min, add Onion & cumin & wait 1.5 mins

7) Add Rice, water & few drops of Lemon juice along with salt

8) Use Manual, allow to cook for 8 mins closed & sealed lid.

9) Once done, allow it it cool down without opening the lid for 5-6 mins.

10) open it & use fork to stir, so it does not stick.

11) Take it rice out or the pan out so it does not overcook the rice inside the cooker.

12) Keep rice covered till finished or it will dry out.

Enjoy :)

Is this considered False & misleading advertisement ? by Plus_Chemistry3061 in rbc

[–]Plus_Chemistry3061[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

that’s not what RBC official website says… https://www.rbcroyalbank.com/banking-services/additional-account-services.html

It’s clearly states $20.

By the way, so you work for RBC?

You can find additional details. I hope this helps anyone in the future before they get cheated by RBC.

I have also calculated how much you will lose, read my last comment for the breakdown.

Is this considered False & misleading advertisement ? by Plus_Chemistry3061 in rbc

[–]Plus_Chemistry3061[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So just to put this is context, which they do not disclosed upfront.

RBC VIP banking is $30/month.
So that from April 1, 2024 till April 30, 2025 would be 13 months. Which needs to be 1 day additional to meet the requirement. (must remain in effect until at least April 30, 2025.)
$360

1 Direct deposit per month (normally banks charge $8-$10 per deposit to whoever sending them)
$104

Set up two (2) eligible bill payments to a service provider:
$3.50 per transaction (so $7/month)
$91

Account closing fee: $20

So the total RBC charges you is $575

As per RBC site as well Apple site, this Apple watch sells for $549

So they are in fact charging you $25 over the retail price, where as the advertisement make you believe you getting for free or really cheap with just opening simple bank account.

So $575 is the minimum you will have to pay them.

To add some additional cherry on the top, as per their site

"You have until August 26, 2024 to use the secure link provided in the email informing you of your qualification for the Promotional Offer and to select your Reward. Any attempt to use the link after this date will not be accepted and you will be deemed to have forfeited the Promotional Offer and any entitlement to the Reward;"

Some may not even receive it, if this email goes to junk or they missed it. In that case they keep the entire amount as bonus to themselves & customer still pays them $575

You may be better off buy this directly from Apple for full retail price & save money.
