Hi
I have applied for my I140 & I485 concurrently from Texas service center and received date Aug 2nd 2005. I have got the receipt for I140 and I tracked I140 which went into RFE.

I did not get the receipt for I485.I have contacted the law firm they are saying INS kept the file aside and not cashed the check also. Gurus help me wht should I do now ??? :mad:. The company is telling me that the Law firms can setup appointment with the INS and discuss about the matter. I doubt whether we can do like this? What do I need to do now.

It seems u are EB2 and they received ur I-140 on Sep 1st 2005.(possibly 485 same date.)


read this Sep v-bulletin
http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_2616.html


For Eb2 V-no was available, also there were strong posibilites that Eb2 may be affected by visa unavailability in Sep month if they feel Eb2 need to.

There was a few ppl who shared their service center got confused/or by mistakely returned them back their application. in ur case it seems they haven't decided yet. and bec Oct start so may be they accept and use old date and put ur case in system.

Its all my opinion not necessary all should agree with.


What to do?


use ur I-140 receipt and talk directly to TSC 'DIRECTLY' .... How to????
here is to follow. this method works in this way, You are going to check status by phone and by selecting some option they allow u to talk to TSc/transfer TSC,

---------------
method to follow to talk with TSC direct.

use 800 to find status.
Press 1 for english
Press 2
Press 6
Press 1 for SRC #
Press 1 again to confirm
Press 3
Press 3 or 4 when it says u have file Multiple applicaiton, by selecting this option u will be connected with TSC.

(if u find any error after SRC input, use any other SRC like EAD etc)

Once connected give TSC-opt to ur 485 src..
-----------------------------------------------------



Be hopeful and relax,

Becz u filed in Sep they would accpet ur 485 and would send u receipt.

share us what do they say.


Good Luck

Initiate mean: they put ur 485 petition in system generated case no (SRC#).


I know u don't have 485 SRC#, thats why u are going to call to find it,

USE 140 receipt # , when connected to TSC explain them situation , they would let u know that TSC has accepted ur 485 or SRC/receipt has been sent or what is going on?

Call them using 140 receipt#. and talk only TSC directly.


Good Luck
 
EB2 - Visa numbers

Guys,

I initiated an inquery on my I-485 case (TSC / RD May 2003) in July as it was pending since then and sent them fax with my SRC numbers to expedite the process on my case.

I received response from USCIS in first week of Sept that they can not expedite the process due to "Unavailability of visa numbers".

So i think the EB2 v #s were already retrogressed in August.

This is my assumption.

Although they sent out RFE on my wife's 485 in Sept 20th so I don't know what is going on there.

Let's hope for good.
