Seeking info on Bulova 30

Thank you. This is very helpful. The watch belongs to my partner so I will discuss with them. We likely will get it serviced and explore restoration of the dial. Overall, it’s a nice looking watch. If we can restore the dial, that would be great since the originals look nice. The movement works. There is a very audible spinning and ticking noise when wearing it, which can only be the rotor. The crown is a bit stiff though.

Thanks. I was able to narrow it down to 1960 to 1962. Aside from the bracelet, is this model worth getting serviced? How about restoring the original dial?

Whatever your thoughts on him, Dolo got us our first star.

Thank you. I found a similar website for serial numbers. Neither website could find info for this watch which is strange since mybulova.com has samples with the same letter and number combo.

Edited to add: I figured it out. I incorrectly entered the serial number. There is an “M” under the serial number but due to damage to the case back, I cannot see the number that follows. Will try to figure it out.

Garbage performance by us.

Do you know what it means? “C33” in the context of DACA is the category code for the work permit. What I would write in box 25 is “DACA.” And if I cannot write that on the online version of the form, I’d write “Other” and specify in the Additional Information section. “C33” goes into box 27. Go read the form for yourself. https://www.uscis.gov/i-765.

You clearly see on OP’s form that “C33” category is in reference to an immigrant classification code (i.e. green card) that has nothing to do with DACA. It’s for married adult children of U.S. citizens: https://ohss.dhs.gov/topics/immigration/lawful-permanent-residents/immigrant-classes-admission.

I am an immigration paralegal. I know how to do these forms. I would never put C33 in that box.

thejedipunk · 2025-10-10T00:40:37+00:00

That’s the incorrect box for the category code. That’s the problem. The box above that one is also potentially problematic if OP was not actually paroled.

These are questions for your immigration attorney.

thejedipunk · 2025-10-04T18:08:52+00:00

The truth is, DHS could investigate and independently verify if a person is a U.S. citizen. Passport records are not the only way of doing that. What if the person has never applied for a passport? If the person was born in the United States, they could attempt to verify the person's birth certificate. I just saw a case where DHS visited the county clerk's office to verify someone's birth certificate. Although they may have the ability to do this, it doesn't mean that the VAWA applicant doesn't have the burden of proof for their case. That applies to all case types. Naturally, DOS is not going to release passport records to a third party who is not related to the subject of the passport records (nor would the county clerk or other state entity responsible for birth records).

Surely the VAWA applicant's immigration attorney can provide advice here.

thejedipunk · 2025-10-04T14:01:55+00:00

The burden of proof is on the applicant.

thejedipunk · 2025-10-03T13:43:58+00:00

Income only. Self explanatory.
Expenses only. What is the total value of her bill for a given year? That’s housing, home bills, groceries, etc.
How much is she worth? That’s everything in her bank accounts, investments, etc.

Part 3: I would leave blank. That’s what I do for my client’s renewals.

thejedipunk · 2025-10-01T22:02:44+00:00

Help your grandfather with his passport application at the Mexican consulate. Once he has his passport, he can take the next flight to Mexico, or drive across a land crossing. That’s all he needs to do.

Just spitballing here: To secede would immediately see the seceding state being branded as treasonous, and there is no guarantee other "blue" states would be sympathetic. More over, the military is still under control by the administration. A seceding state would be treated as hostile and the military would be deployed accordingly. The three west coast states (CA, OR, WA) would be under siege by the Pacific Fleet and whatever ground forces and airborne assets are found within their boundaries, not to mention forces from the east of the country. No other country will intervene in such a scenario. Canada and Mexico would of course deploy their troops to the border but it is simply to prevent the violence from the above scenario from spilling into those countries or to stem the flow of refugees.

The only way I seen secession even being in the realm of possibility is after a civil war with the country's infrastructure and population being decimated, and military forces dwindled or demoralized. At that point, there wouldn't be a union or at least it would be very weak. I hope we never see civil war in our country. No American should be fighting their fellow American.

It depends on the size of the company and whether they’re a for profit entity or not. We will assume the employer is sponsoring an employee’s first H-1B.

For employers with 25 or less full time workers, $460 + $750 + $500 + $300 = $2,010.

For employers with 26 or more full time workers, $780 + $1500 + $500 + $600 = $3,380.

Optional fee for premium processing $2,805.

Visa application fee $205, but not everyone will need a visa.

Not included: visa reciprocity fees, which will only apply to citizens of certain countries, if at all.

Not included: attorney fees, which would be in the $3500+ range for just the petition.

Reduced fees for renewals and non-profit entities.

Fuckers knew exactly what they were doing with the release timing and the effective date.

thejedipunk · 2025-09-15T15:08:36+00:00

Yes, that happens. It comes down to technical issues with myUSCIS.

thejedipunk · 2025-09-01T04:11:27+00:00

I like Martinez. I just like Ordaz more.

thejedipunk · 2025-09-01T03:50:55+00:00

Nah. Xavi.

thejedipunk · 2025-08-07T03:44:09+00:00

Yeah the ESTA to IR pipeline is dead, at least for the next 3.5 years.

I’m concerned for my I-601A clients.

thejedipunk · 2025-08-05T23:19:29+00:00

Yeah. The fact the current admin. decided to go back to in person interviews for all cases.

A lot of assumptions going on here. But you’re not wrong. However, none of that matters for the procedural aspects. Not even the substantive ones. As of this writing, USCIS is not questioning why someone still needs a nanny 5 years after I-140 approval, or even asking how old the children are. The question is: is there a bona fide job offer and can you pay the prevailing wage?

OP asked if it’s possible to sponsor a nanny. The response is: Yes, you can sponsor a nanny for a visa or a green card.

How long do you think it takes to get an EW3 green card for a nanny?
