I don't believe it! - today as well our lawyer got a cancellation notice for the Chicago interview. They are making a decision from the Nebraska CSC and say they will mail a letter when they have made a determination - weird!

No. We just today got an interview notice for Chicago office, May 17th!

What does this mean?? Today I got an e-mail from CRIS that everything (I-130, and I-485) was sent to Nebraska! Has this happened to anyone else? Marriage based Chicago, IL RD Sept 1st 2005 Married to USC, was expecting interview in next 2-3 months, but now I'm not sure.. How can...

Thankyou! This is very thorough - it will be a great help!!! Excellent post! :)

I think if you explain all this at the interview, you'll be fine. Try taking mail that's come for each of you at the same address (bills, letters etc) - I think mostly the USCIS wants some proof that you live together/share a life. Also, it's pretty simple to get a joint life insurance policy...

Well, my new attorney said the copy comes from the USCIS, not the Backlog center directly. However, if there is going to be a significant delay because of my previous attorney's careless (which he admitted to), I guess I will be litigating against him - several attorneys I have spoken to have...

I have a similar problem too... My old lawyer lost the approved labor certification!! It was at Dallas Backlog center and they received it November 28th. They just told me they can't find it, so couldn't forward it to my new lawyer! I am so frustrated! The new lawyer says USCIS will...

Hi, e17345, Don't worry, It's normal to feel so concerned. Most of us here understand how anxious it is, waiting for the USCIS to finally get around to one's case. It is a test of our nerves. Be reassured, we all empathise with you. Here's hoping we all get a satisfactory result at the...

Quick update... Received AP December 2nd. All applications sent to lock box end of August, ND September 2nd 2005, so it took exactly 3 months to get AP.

As I said in a previous post, these tracker dates are NOT accurate. You would do better to follow people's processing times on this forum - they actually reflect what's really happening. Ari is right; try to relax (although that can be tough) - worrying and obsessing won't make anything...

I agree! Chicago DO says Early 2004 (can't remember which month), but applicants from February 2005 (marriage based) already have their green cards!

Hey there, just wandered into your post... As far as I know, multiple I-485s are OK. My attorney said there should be no problem I'm doing I-485 marriage based, then my labor came through (non-retrogressed EB2), and apparently processing times are pretty quick for EB I-485s (several...

Labor Certification Approved... IL RIR filed Nov 11 2003 Notified by lawyer about approval today

ND Sept 2nd 2005 FP Nov 11th 2005 EAD received Nov 22nd 2005. No AP received yet..... Online status of AP not updated since 9/24/05.

Just thought of something else... If you felt like working in an academic setting - lecturer, research at University, there are sometimes more opportunities for jobs there, and universities are usually familiar with hiring foreign workers or grad students

This is really a marriage/family forum, but I will try and give you some pointers... I am from UK myself and came on a work visa. The first vital step is a job offer from a US company. The company then applies for your work visa - usually an H-1B. Then, to be sponsored for a green card...

Yep - just got my EAD today - there is a thin red stripe. I think it just relates to how they put the card together...

RD: Sept 02 2005 FP appt: November 09 2005 - fingerprints for I-485 and EAD done at same time

RD: Sept 2nd 05 Waiting for FP notice.....

Anyone also filing via USC spouse in Chicago? It's nearly 2 months now, and no fingerprint letter. Is this the normal wait? Any ideas when we should start to be concerned about lost mail etc?....
