since I was the one who started this thread and there's not much activity on it anymore, it only seems right if I ended it with my case update. I received the approval at the Newark office on 4/28 followed by the standard "card ordered" email later that day. Very much relieved, yes! :)

Mind sharing your wisdom with us? Some of us may be able to take advantage of the info that you might have on the name check.

Another unfortunate recipient of the Interview approved, but pending-name-check process fellow here. Firstly, thanks for starting the thread. Please add me to the list -- Last name Shah; Citizen of India.

Thanks, bud! I guess I don't have much of a choice but to wait and see how long the process drags (hopefully not too long!). I do consider myself a little optimistic, so I'm not going to lose my sleep over it. Unless it gets out of control, of course. Again, hoping it wouldn't have to get to...

Since I started this fantabulous thread, I might as well post my experience at the interview yesterday. Basically, the interview was a breeze -- the interviewer was very nice and professional. She asked all the usual questions (where you met, when's his birthday, where he works, etc) to my...

I'm happy to state that I received my interview letter in the mail yesterday, as well! Although, I'm still waiting for status on my EAD and AP.

Same here -- got my FP notice in the mail today, scheduled for the 6th of next month. Different DO, however. On a different note, I received a PM from one of the posters here suggesting I change the title of the thread to something more obvious for everyone to find. Is that a general...

Thanks to all for chiming in! It's certainly worth sharing the status and keeping everyone's motivation up. For what it's worth, you can also register with USCIS and track your status online. You would need the receipt number to add your case to your "portfolio"...

May 2007 Filing Thread (WAS: Any May filers around?) Since I see the March and April filers making their own threads, I thought I'd save the people who filed in May from being left out. My application was filed on 5/4 and in the spirit of tracking and sharing our filing information through this...

That provided helpful information through the URL to someone like me who doesn't live in VA. :)

Thank you all for providing such helpful advises. I appreciate it very much! My fiancee just got her citizenship (yay!), so now that I was ready to follow what seemed like a general consensus, someone just told me that I could apply for the GC in my home country, as well. I am told that the...

OK, here's the deal: -- My Fiancee and I are residents of two different states. We also work in our respective states. -- My Fiancee is a GC holder with her Citizenship interview scheduled fairly soon. I've been on H1B for 5 years with my priority date in mid 2004. So instead of waiting...
