Well, they say that after you get your GC, you should wait for a few months before you change jobs. This is to ensure that INS doesn\'t think that you were with the employer for the sole purpose of getting the GC. And soon after you got it, the next day you quit. Here is my question...

Guys, We all know how eagerly everyone waits to hear about others approvals so that we can compare and see where we stand. Wouldn\'t it be nice to know the exact RD, ND, PD, FP dates etc rather than having just the month and the year. Could everyone be kind enough to post complete...

This is from Attorney Sheela Murthy\'s Bulletin... Please be careful if you travel while waiting for your I485 approval. This is a horrible story. -Mitr ------------------------------ 2. Travel Warning : Nightmare at INS POE for H1B Applicant! Many people have travel plans for...

My EAD has my Date of Birth wrong. Can I still use it?? Will it create problems. I don\'t intend to use it to get another job. It will be to switch from H1B to EAD with the same employer, since my H1B is expiring. My employer won\'t care about the wrong DOB. My attorney says, it...

Does anyone know if the new JIT is out yet? The last one released was 11/09/01. It said:          I-485 Ready to Adjudicate 01/01/00 TIA, Mitr

I have my EAD card but I am still on my H1B. What steps do I need to take in order to switch over to EAD. My attorney said it is just a matter of informing my company that I am switching over to EAD now. But my understanding is that I need to fill a form I-9 and submit it to my employer...

Talked to a nice and patient IIO today. She was helpful in explaining how the two systems work. According to her, this is how it works: System #1 : This is the CSC local system. This is where our file resides             and is...

People, lets not make a big deal of it. Please look at the statistics before saying that "FP before schedule are generating RFEs".... I spend some 10 minutes to look around for recent approvals and found these following 6-7 cases with approvals (just in the last couple of weeks)...

All, My FP notice didn\'t have my SS number in it (the entry was blank). Whereas my wife\'s FP notice had MY SS number (by mistake) instead of hers. Both of us got our FP done recently. My wife told the person taking the finger prints at SJ/ASC about the wrong SS number, and she...

My wife and I have received our EAD cards and Advance Parole and are awaiting our I485 approval. We have received our FP Notices and have already done FP at the San Jose ASC. After receiving our EAD & AP, my wife had to travel for business outside the country. She is still maintaining...

Is Monday (today) a good time to go for FP ahead of schedule @ Story Road, San Jose. If Yes, what would be the best time. 11:30am or around 3:00pm. If No, then when is the best day/time. TIA, -Mitr

Hi all, I went to the San Jose (Story Road) office today. My experience was excellent. I was in and out in less then 10 minutes. I reached there @ 2:15pm and was the ONLY person in the office for Finger Printing. I did see some people sitting in the waiting area, but the FP booths were...

Hi, Does INS issue FP Notices during audit?? TIA, Mitr

Talked to IIO: Me: "My wife and I haven\'t received FP notices for our I485 application". IIO: "Oh! You haven\'t received the FP notice?". IIO: Then went to I485 screen and said: "Let me issue your FP Notices      via computer.&quot...

Last JIT Report was on 07/20/01. Isn\'t it time for the next one?? Hoping that I485 will jump back to 2001 (I really hope they have cleared the backlog from 98, 99 and 00). Crossing my fingers :( -Mitr WAC-01-141-xxxxx

This thread is to Thank CSC for issuing the FP notices. I haven\'t received mine yet, but at least I have hope now. We criticize and bash CSC/INS and the IIOs so much on this board. I think once in a while we should be thankful to them. Look at the brighter side. Things are moving along...

From the limited browsing that I did today, it looks like there is some significant pattern in INS FP notices. Looks like the wives with last names between A-H have received the FP notices, whereas the husbands with last names L-Z have not (see data below). This exercise might set our...
