December 2004 Filers Status

[jayjo7]

Let us start a thread to track the December 2004 filers activity and status. Please post you information here

[longwaythere]

THanks for starting this one. Make this a sticky on like the one we had in the 140 forum. The previous thread was informative and most of all a confindence booster.I kind of sensed that my turn was nearing form the posts and it was true. Like wise yours. It is surprising that I was one of the last dec filier and got apporved a few day ahead (5/15) of some of the guys who filed early december.

Anyway my question is once 140 is approved is 485 a sure shot and only a matter of time? What basis are 485 usually denied. My spouse wants to shift jobs based on my approved 140 AND ead. What do you guys think.

That is what we thought when we staterd the I-140 thread for December filers and had a sucsseful information exchanges in that thread and here we are in May. So it ok atleast we can vent our self. I also know few people got their I-485 approved with in couple of months from the approval of their I-140

Count me in too.....

EB3 (INDIA) -RIR- NSC
Priority Date: 06/01/2002
140 RD -9/9/2004 AD - 05/02/2005
485/AP/EAD RD - 12/20/2004
I-485 AD : ?? waiting

Let us keep track of any activity so that we can also estimate the trend/pattern of approvals

[kishorch]

I know NSC has their own rules for processing applications . But does anybody know what is the date that is used for sorting the applications? Is it PD or I485 RD? Logically since the retrogression dates are based on PD, I would assume that it should be PD. Right?

I am expecting that NSC to work on PD not the ND of I-485 atleast for EB3 cases

jayjo7:

It is encouraging to hear that few people got I-485 approval in few months of I-140 approval.

Can you confrim that they were Dec 2004 applicants.


Can some one make a spread sheet to track the I-485..

Hi!

I dont know if its a good news or bad news but we have received a second FP for my wife yesterday asking to attend for Biometrics on the 15 of next month. This was for the 485 application.

Nothing for me . will update as i know anything more.

No LUD change so far for both me and my wife.

I am the primary applicant and applied my wife as dependant.

This is interesting to see what happens next

[kishorch]

I also received a notice for my second FP (Biometrics). It is scheduled on 10th June. I am the primary applicant. My wife however did not receive any notice yet.

[jackmike]

JackMike,

My wife got the second FP (Biometrics - code 2) notice today. She is scheduled for June 14th. I have an appointment on June 10th and my attorney told me that I can also take my wife with me for the FP. So we will be going together on June 10th.

You should also be getting your notice soon.

Is the "Biometric Notice" sent to the applicant's address or to the lawer/company ?

It is sent to the Lawyer and also to the applicant's address.

Hello All,

I had my fingerprinting (not Biometrics) done in Feb 05, but have not seen any LUD change for my 485 since then.

Has anyone seen any LUD change after the first finger-printing ?

Thanks.

[SPASK]

Last year my I 485 was denied due to I140 denial. By that time I already completed the finger printing process. Later, I applied a new I-140/I485 last December with a sub-labor. My new I140 got approved in May'05 and after that I got the FP notice for Biometrics (Code:2). they never took all the finger prints this time, instead they took impression of the point finger and also took a photo.

So do I need to wait for another FP notice with some other code? BTW what is wait period after this CODE:2 biometric? also what is the I-140 officer code? how it relates to I485 process?? Could some one help me to get some idea

Code 2 is just one finger print.. usually done for EAD renewals.
