HA HA HA! that's funny! I checked my FP status today only. Initially the rep was like nope, can't find it, it takes 4-6 weeks etc. She had just asked my last name then. I told her that I did my FP last week, and normally FP results are transferred to "USCIS" in a day or two. Then she said, "oh...

Did you specifically mention that you are calling regarding "immigration" FP and give your A#?? Apparently they have different databases for different kinds of FP.

Ignore the PD on the FP notice. You will get a "PD" once your 140 is approved, it's mentioned on the approval notice. It should be the date when original LC was filed. Thought I should give a break to Ginnu, Unitednations et al. :)

LOL Siva, that's an option too, may be last resort! Thanks guys! I guess there is a difference between missing the appointment and rescheduling it, don't you think so? Anyway I am hoping that I don't have to reschedule. My priority date is current, 140 approved, 485 applied in Dec03.

Thanks Skoorb! But it's not my 2nd FP, it's 1st FP only which I want to reschedule once again (i had done rescheduling two months ago). Would it cause any harm other than delaying the GC approval? Even if it's my 1st FP, there are good chances that I will get my approval soon after FP looking at...

Hello guys, I had rescheduled my FP in Nov04 since I wanted to delay the GC approval. In the meantime I got married, and now awaiting my wife's arrival in the US. Last week I got another FP notice for January first week which I want to reschedule again since I want to add my wife to I-485...

Hello unitednations, I am using a substitue labor, the original labor was filed in 1999, and 140 was approved in 2000. My 140 was filed in Oct 03 using this labor and original 140 was withdrawn. My 140 got approved in Mar 04. I do not have a 140 approval copy, I had done FOIA request, I...

Hello Guys, I have seen contradictory messages on this forum and the mumbai consulate website regarding this. Is a valid H1 visa must for getting a new H4 visa? What if my visa is expired but I'm in the US based on a valid petition. Do I have to get my H1 revalidated just for getting a...

Hello BigG, I am on the same track as yours, but I want to postpone my FP unlike you. See this: http://www.immigrationportal.com/showthread.php?t=145213 I am going to send a letter with original notice just before I go to India so that I don't get rescheduled before the...

I did call USCIS, the rep told me to follow the instructions and send a letter. Can I call Newark ASC? I could find just the Newark address on USCIS website, no phone number.

Dear Gorilla, Thanks for the reply! But that's exactly my worry! :) Since I am unmarried, I don't want an early approval. Hence the question. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks, Kilbil

Help Please - How long can I reschedule FP1 and How? Hello Guys, I have received FP1 notice, scheduled in the first week of November at Newark. The notice has only one date. It says I can reschedule for next available Wednesday or Saturday. I am planning to go to India soon and want to...

Hello guys, I am going to India shortly. I have a valid H1B visa/stamp, do i have to show ORIGINAL I-485 receipt while re-entering the US in order not to abandon my PR application? I am just having a photocopy, would it be sufficient? On a different note, I do have AP too, but...
